him. When Uncle Luther saw them
he went to the door and beckoned.
Come in, Jonathan! Come in" he
called.
His face shone with pride, and he
told with feverish eagerness Of the
new honor which the day had brought
him.
Nonsense" interrupted Jonathan
testify. Don't you know, father, that
you're gettin' too old and feeble to take
part in such things? You amt able

you're only stirrin' up trouble between
the families. Uncle Tommy'll never
forgive you"
81 know It," he faltered. Il know 1t,
Jonathan. Tommy'd ought to have it.
| told 'em so. I said Tommy'd ought
to have it,"
The end of the lane was the end of
Dicks little world, and he turned and
loitered back, humming a tune to him
self, as a child will. Uncle Luther
stood in the doorway and watched him
wistfully. OF a sudden he recalled how
Uncle Tommy had looked when they
We're boys together.
Jus like Tommy, exactly" he said
half aloud, gazing fondly at the little
fellow. Then he bent over him stifiiy
and beckoned.
"Come see gran'pa," he said, smiling
enticingly.
Dick crossed his hands behind his
back and looked at Uncle Luther sober
ly. He was a sunny haired little fel-
low, with blue eyes and puckery red
lips, and he stood full in the bright
May sunshine. Uncle Luther regarded
him seriously.
'I told 'em didn't want to march, "
he said protestingly. 81 said Tommy'd
do it better'n l could. But Captain
Enoch, ner any Of 'em, would listen to
me. Don't 10 way, Dickey; don't go
way an leave gran'pa," beseechingly.
But the little boy was odging away.
He didn't understand, and he was
afraid.
Don't 20 way" said Uncle Luther
The citizen. (Honesdale, Pa.) 1908-1914, 1912-05-17

had belonged to the same regiment,
and both had reached the rank of cor
poral, Uncle Luther on one leg and
Uncle Tommy on two. But Uncle
Luther always had deferred to Uncle
Tommy as If he had been an older
brother, and 1t seemed to him hardly
short of sacrilege to appear as Uncle
Tommy's rival. SO he struggled to
his feet and held up lean finger to
catch Captain Enochs eye.
I'D rather have Tommy have the
place." he faltered. He's better fit
ted for it than l be"
But Uncle Tommy was storming
down the room.
Keep it, he roared, and he went
out, slamming the door after him.
Uncle Luther followed him a few
steps wistfully, and then he dropped
back in his seat and listened dumbly
while Captain Enoch and the exultant
revolters planned the details of the
parade.
ITS Amery's turn this yeaf." gloat
ed Captain Enoch.
Uncle Luther walked up the road
alone. His step was brisker than
usual and there was a brighter CLEAN
in his eye. He could not help feeling
proud that ne had been honored.
There were other men in Amery who
would have served better in his place
he knew that well enough, for he
was old, and he didn't walk easily
but he was glad with the joy of ap.
probation
For so many years he had been an
unnoticed, crippled tinker, and when
at last recognition came to him, even
at the expense of his more fortunate
brother, he could not help exulting.
"Well, fought fer it, he mumbled,
"an' l bled fer it. I'd a-given both my
legs if necessary-they know that"
Then, after a pause, he said aloud,
But l wisht Tommy'd got it,"
He opened the door of his little shop
snd went in. His eyes swept the ia
miliar disorder Of the room, the rusty
tools hanging on the wall, the blear
faced old clocks, the pots and pans,
all the toys of second childhood. He
was glad to be at home again, for he
was worn out and trembling with the
unwonted excitement of the meeting.
Outside the sun shone on the green
prairies, and there was warm, puddly
dust in the road, but Uncle Luther's
blood was thin and cold, and he shiv-
cred in the damp interior of the shop.
SO he brought his soldering brazier
from the corner and stirred the Goals
into a bright glow. Then he bent over
to warm his hands.
Jonathan Dowell came down the lane
between his prosperous fields on his
way to town. Little Dick was with
