When the hour was gone the class

she did not know where else to go.
She could not study as she had no

She was so abnormally self conscious

After noon she returned to the high

strange professors in different branch

was asked question she could not

this. She never could live down the
movement that went through the class
when she inadvertently revealed the
fact that she had expected her books
to be furnished. Her mother would
not get them. That settled the ques-
ton.
But the end OF misery Is never In
hurry TO come. for before the day was
over the superintendent entered the
room and explained that pupils from
the country were charged tuition OF
$50 a year. That really was the end.
Previously Elnora had canyassed a
dozen wild plans for securing the mon
ey for books ranging all the way from
offering to wash the superintendent
dishes to breaking into the bank. This
additional expense made the thing so
wildly impossible there was nothing TO
do but hold up her head until she was
out Of sight.
