and then father laughed.
Almost anybody would giggle
to see Juniors carefully place
eggs in fathers chair, syrup in
his boots, a pan Of water over
his door, salt in his glass Of
water and cotton in his pam
cakes, and then receive the full
benefit of their planning. Father
laughed when his mischievous
boys and girls tumbled into the
water or mud, or when they
rode calves and pigs and risky
colts, or when they mistook a
black cow for a bear and frog
for a bird with a bad cold.
Father laughed for pure de-
light sometimes, as he did
when Sonny caught ten
pound pickerel and when the
littlest boy spoke his first words
at four years of age. Those
were stirring times when father
laughed, and nearly everybody
within hearing smiled and
twinkled.

one just stops to think about it the world
is full of corners, all the way from the
sharp kind suitable for humping heads to
the inverted ones which might contain
almost anything, delightful or otherwise.
And nearly every corner has a story some
where about it.. That is partly the rea-
son why Juniors did not make any fuss
about finding ideas this week. How could
they when the stories were told by the
corners themselves, all complete even to
local "color' and sometimes a. moral by

Beverley ubcyed without a word. He
even loaded two guns instead of one,
charging each so heavily that the last

added a few words and at the last mo-
mcnt sent it out by Il trusted man. who
was promptly captured by Hamilton's

Helm turned to his lieutenant and
said:

Beverley wheeled forth the swivel

But when he fired it the effect was far
from what it should have been. In
stead of calling in fresh body of mill
tia il actually drove out the few who
up to that moment had remained as q
