CHAPTER XVIII.

~ Oslo LOCKWOOD came home
again for the Easter holidays,
but she didn't return to finish
q her term in the New York
school-just why we never discov-
cred. The Lockwoods furnished US
with no really satisfying explanation.
They said that Josie didn't like New
York, but I've always doubted that, es-
pecially since Josie married and In
sisted on moving straight away to that
metropolis. l suspect she didn't get
along with the class Of young women
with whom she was thrown at school,
and I'm pretty certain she was uneasy
about Nat all the time she was so far
away from him.
1t was during this period. between
the Easter vacation and the end of the
spring school term. that Roland Bar
nette's animosity toward Duncan be-
came virulent
Josie, of course, was prompt to GUST
Angie TuthilI from her place In the
choir. After that she sang with Nat
on Friday nights as well as Wednes-
days and twice per Sunday. Between
whites she was a pretty constant pa

the least doubt in the collective mind
Of the town as to the inclination OF
Josie's affections.

Betty was to return-a day late in
May, / remember, and a Friday ut
that. ..

"a ID rise to more comment in Rad

parture to spend the winter at
boarding school near Philadelphia.
Hardly any one knew anything about
tin fact. the runor of it was just
being noised about and contemptuous-

rey galloped down Main street Monday
morning with the news that she had
left ON the early train.
Radville was ut first stunetied. then
clamorous. but there was little infor-
nation to be got out Of old Sam.
Duncan himself refused to be inter
viewed He told everybody who had
the impudence to mention the matter
to him that it was Mr.. Graham's af-
fair. Mr.. Graham WAS il substantial
business man. he said. and if he chose
to send his daughter. away to school
he had Il perfect right to do so.
One direct result of 1t all was to
hasten Josic's own leave taking. II

A PARTY GOWN FOR STATE OCCASIONS.
fashionable center like Philadelphia
made her change her mind, and ar
engagements were made by which Josie
was able to go Betty one better. A
young ladies' seminary in New York
city itself received Josie. She left us
bereaved about week after Betty
vanished from our ken. but promised
to be back for the Christmas holidays.
Betty WAS happy. she protested in
every communication. and wholly con-
tent. She was getting along. The
other girls liked her. and she liked
them. these statements being made in
the order of their relative Importance.
Lots Of them. Of course. were fright
fully swell betty annexed 'frightful-
ly'' at school. by the bye) and had all
sorts of clothes. The drug store. not to
be outdone. supplied her with a party
gown for state occasions.
Josie kept her promise and came
home for Christmas. She was reticent
as to her impressions of the New York
seminary. but seemed extremely glad
to be home. Notwithstanding the fact
that Nat had apparently contracted no
disturbing alliances with the other
bellies of our village. And Roland re-
manned true-a reliable second string
to Josie's bow. Roland was working
hard at the bank, with an application
that earned Blinky Lockwood's regard
and outspoken appreciation, and his
Christmas raiment proved the sensa-
ton of the season.
In passing | should mention that
Betty didn't come home once through
out the entire school term. The Christ
mas and Easter holidays she spent
with girl friend at her Philadelphia
home.
Meanwhile life in our town sim
mered gently. Duncan continued to
make progress. For one thing | re-
call that he put in hot soda with whip
ped cream. which helped lot to hold
the trade regained in the summer from
Sothern & Lee.
Occasionally Duncan visited some of
the towns in the county to develop the
mail order business which he had sue
cessfully inauSurated and which in
creased materially the profits Of the
firm.
There was a certain night along to-
ward the LIST Of January when trade
was dull. as it always is after Christ
mas. and there was nobody in the
store save Nat and Tracey. Each had
their task. whatever 1t may have been.
and each was busted with 1t. but Of the
two Tracey seemed the more restless.
Duncan broke long silence In the
store. whats the trouble. Tracey?"
Tracey pulled up with stare of con-
fusion. 81 dunno. Mr.. Duncan;

Tracey struggled perceptibly. The
words when they came were blurted,
"Ah, was only thinkin' bout Angie"
do you ever think about anything
else?"
NO." Tracey admitted honestly, mot
much. But was wonderin'"-

Mr.. Zeidler visited the agriculture

Question-Will the Seniors keep
on painting and powdering since they
found out how beautiful they could
be?
The members of the agriculture
class seemed to enjoy the rain Thurs
day and Friday as they did not have
to work in the gardens.
The Freshmen have not yet had

It looks as if the Junior English

we see them numbering somewhere
around sixty on the board every day
Wanted by the seniors, dog. One

The manual training boys are com

finished by New Years.

Washington School Notes.

Only three weeks of school left in
which to make good. Let us so spend
them that we will leave a clean re-
cord behind us and feel that our va
cation has been well earned.
These last days are busy ones for
every grade, reviewing in preparation
for the coming tests. Judging from
the work which the pupils are doing,
the teachers are expecting to give
nothing but 100 per cents this month.
In honor of the coming vacation the
literary societies of the sixth and
seventh grades are preparing for a
joint program to be held on May 90.
After the program, refreshments will
be served ,and then we will all join
in to have general good time.
Painting in the seventh grade is
progressing rapidly. Our posters and
moonlight scenes are quite worthy-o Of
us. Lack of time is our only icaw:
back in securing even better results.
Some time ago we made the remark
that we hoped no one would .ea7e
school before the end of the year, but
since that several members of the up
per grade have left our ranks.
The little folks in the first room
are very busy these days learning
how to tell time. They will not need
to ask mamma when it is time to 60
to school after this.
The boys and girls in the second
room are entertaining beautiful lit
