the times when he had carried her
books home from the little country
school house. 1t was the desire OF
their parents they should wed. Her
parents had sent her to this Western
College because he was professor
there
Now she had promptly fallen in love
with Dan Norden-and he held Daniel
Norden's examination paper in his
hand.
He turned the leaves slowly. Dan
had been studying some, that was
evident But on the whole the paper
was poor. He folded the paper, and
thought again. His love for Amy had
been from childhood. She would fol
low her parents will and marry him,
if-Dan Norden was out OF the way.
But would she be happy as the Wife
of a professor? She would be happy
with Norden, he knew. Then he
thought of his years of toll and depri-
vation-all for Amy. Her wealth
would give him position and honor in
this little college town. and he could
pursue his studies abroad. But on
the other hand.
He took up his class book and after
Daniel Norden's name he carefully
made little mark.

A FUNK
OR A PASS?

Professor Jackson was correcting
the final examination papers. They
were arranged in three piles on his
desk: the corrected papers, the uncor
rected paperS-and on the corner at
his left single paper. Each time
after correcting paper, he would
reach as if to take up the lone paper,
but just before his hand would touch
it he would hesitate minute, think.
and then take one from the large pile
and correct it. Again he would start
to take up the lone paper. But each
time he hesitated before his hand
touched it. and took one from the
larger pile. He continued this until
all the other papers were corrected.
Then with a sigh, he slowly took up
the single paper and leaned back in
his chair.
On the back, in confident handwrit-
ing. was the name, Daniel Norden.

Dan was a senior. That is, it was
his fourth year at college. In addi-
ton Dan was the best athlete Simpson

Dan entered, Simpson had not been
defeated in football, track or baseball.

Simpson champion for four years. He
had been captain of everything, and
everything had won. Undergraduates
worshipped him, alumni honored him.
But Dan was not student. He had
always passed on his form" Dan
had to be ''eligible," so his classmates
worked his problems. wrote his themes
and persuaded his profs. He had
always taken class work as matter
OF course. Certainly he would pass,
and jolly laugh usually expressed
his anxiety over examinations.
This had been all right for three
years, but now it was different. A
great change had come and all on
account OF HER. She" was Amy
Rothley, a pretty-faced. dainty, clinging
little girl. She had just entered
school and Dan had met her at the
football reception. 1t was the old story
OF love at first sight. Ii Dan had ever
eNerted his whole self on the gridircn.
he was certainly now eXerting his
whole self in winning Amy Rothley

But herein lay Dams rrouble-the
final examinations. Dams father was
the biggest banker in Georgeton
Norden seniors idea of college
course did not include athletics. The
varsity and rah-rahs meant nothing
to him. He had sent Dan to college
to learn how to become cashier after
graduation. If Dan was graduated he
got the job and could get married. If
ne did not-weil, that was another
matter. Dan had not thought much
about graduation until he met Amy.
He had done some serious studying.

parents were poor. They had saved
and denied themselves to send him to
an Eastern University. He thought
OF the hard grind and self-denial
that had made him an honor graduate.

ladder and Mr.. Robbins with it, In
falling he struck on top of a picket
fence in such way that one OF the
pickets penetrated his right thigh.
making ragged wound four inches in
depth. From the fence he fell to the
ground. striking on his back and
starting several ribs. Surgical aid was
summoned and his injuries dressed.
and yesterday he was as comfortable
as could be expected.

cessor to the piece in which Mr.. Law
rerce has been starred for the past
five years Mr.. Lawrence faithfully
upheld his reputation as a typical
farmer of the wholesome Uncle John

The story deals with the love affairs
of Uncle Dawes daughter Grace, ably
portrayed by Marion Shirley, who was
the embodiment of country innocence,
his faith in his son, and his love for
his drunken brother Hiram. 1t runs
through four acts all of them teeming

Earl Hill, one of the Journals carrier
boys, thinks that he has sister worth
having. Earl is at present off duty on
account of having got mixed up with
some poison ivy and is having a pretty
uncomfortable time of it. Not being
able to carry the papers he got Otis
Harding to go over the route each
morning for him but this week he ran
into more trouble through Otis getting
sick also. 1t was then that Earl's sis
ter Ruth stood in the gap, and taxi
ing her brothers newspaper bag She
slung it over her shoulder and started
off in tho early hours of the morning
fer the Journal Office. She is now de-
livering papers on the east side of the
river and is assisted in the work nv
her chum. Miss Lillian Harding. Per-
haps she does not know all the short
cuts that her brother does but she is
doing the work and doing it well.
