/ hasn't had TO speak 10 the nttIe dear
, once and II is almost the half term y
The other mothers nodded assent
| ingly and wondered what spell Susie
| had thrown over the boy. That there
was a change was not to be denied.
The other pupils declared this to be
a fact and. without Tommy to lead
them astray, discipline was excellent.
1t was not until the fall term was
drawing to a close that the change
came. Susie was delighted with her
position. The mothers all liked her and
even Mrs. Bedding smiled approvingly
when she flashed past in John
Thearles buggy after school hours in
stead of behind Joel Peters mare.
Thearle was Mrs. Belongs brother
and she mentally assured herself that
anyone who could effect so great a
Ceange in Tommys reputation was
worthy even of her brother.
Then Tommy fell from grace. Some
impish freak threw the school into mo-
mentary disorder and a litter went
about the room when Tommy was told
that he must remain in after school
hours. The last time Tommy had been
kept in he had spilled the better part
of pint of ink over the teachers
dress. The immediate result had been
that she had hurried home to get the
ink stains out while they were fresh.
and Tommy had gone home, too. Now
he looked longingly at the dress and
wondered whether he dared repeat the
episode. But it was very meek lad
who remained in his seat when the
others had filed out, and to her sur
prise Susie found that he was crying
Gently she sought to reason with
him, but he would not listen. He could
only sit and gaze apprehensively at
the door, and presently John Thearle
entered to ascertain the cause of the
teachers lateness.
He perceived the situation at
glance and with never a word he laid
Tommy over his knee and used a ruler
until the boy promised to be good.
81 was tired of being known as the
uncle of the worst boy in the school,
he calmly explained to the astonished
teacher. Tommy takes advantage of
the law in regard to punishment in the
schools and the knowledge that his
mother will not make good this fault.

Precisely" agreed Thearle. Il saw
you at the station that first day. he
explained. and | loved you then, Su-

Tommy, eagerly.
