"A couple of millions!" exclaimed
Mildred, her eyes opening very v;ds.
A couple Of millions WHAT"
"A couple of million dollars. Of
course; what else would mean?a
Mildred gave a little gasp and it
was long time before she was
Aeard from again. Finally she broke
INTO a gay laugh.
oh what a joke on Dad" she
cried.
How so?" asked Gordon, Joining
in the mirth. though he knew not
why.
IT'S too fuzzy for anything" said
Mildred, unable to control her mer-
riment, Dad expected to buy it for
about $4,000"
He dido" said Gordon in surprise.
Yes, and isn't it a good joke on
Dad, Gordon2"
II don't quite get you. Mildred.
What put it in your head that your
father wanted TO buy this property
up in the mountains"
ITS Up to You"
I'm a little traitor. Gordon. to tell

with a little laugh.

Gordon Sings to Her.

"All right; sit down in one of those
easy chairs and I will sing it to you"
Il won't do anything of the kind.
I'll stay right here said Mildred
with a smile. She placed her elbows
on the edge Of the instrument, laid
into his eyes. Now sing she com

Clared Gordon returning the look
with interest. His fingers sought the
keyboard and he played a short in

langourous accompaniment, he sang

Lips o. Poppy

In silence they stood hand in hand
and looked out Of the window. Elk
tending from the house was per-
COLA. Beyond that a fountain played
and then a driveway wound through
rows of poplar trees and was lost in
the forest in the distance.
Mildred sighed happily.
mo wonder you love your home"
she said 1T is the loveliest place
have ever seen, and l haven't seen
half of it yet. There is nothing in
Atlanta that can compare with It,
have seen all the best residences
there"
She gazed dreamiIy out into the
vista, and il was a long time before
she spoke again. She was thinking
of Gordon and his princely home in
the Georgia mountains and the life
he had led there. Finally she turned.
On the plano lay a sheet of music.
Lips O. Poppy" she exclaimed,
turning over the leaves. What an
odd name for a sOngi"
"A new nickname for you" said
Gordon.
What is?"
Lips O. Poppy"
You must sing the song to me,
then, so that I can tell you whether
I like it,"

in a corner and nearby were half
dozen baseball bats. Guns and fish

corner of the room. Close to a win
dow that looked out to the east was
a miniature grand piano.
My goodness" said Mildred. you
seem to have enough pianos in this
house"
My father got me that for my
special use" laughed Gordon. "He
and l could never agree on the sub
jeCt of piano tuning He always want
ed the pianos tuned to concert pitch
and l wanted one tuned just a shade
lower, because it Is hard to sing in
the key of + at concert pitch. To
end the argument he had this piano
sent down here and ] tuned it to
suit myself"
Can you tune a piano." asked
Mildred.
Certainly; there's no trick to that.
And you sing, too?"
Just a little for my own amuse-
ment"

"Oh, piano teachers and singing
teachers came down from New York
and Boston, but my mother taught

"She was dear"

GOOD COUNTY ROADS.
Editor Eagle

Editor Eagle:
Good roads is the question of the
hour. 1t is the wish and demand OF
our citizens from all walks of life. The
one thing wanting most is the means,
and second, the method. Method is
not applied only to construction. but
more particularly how best to serve
the interest of the taxpayers equitably.
To this end we must have an express
sion of the people from each section
of the County, and to get this l re-
commend the organization of good
roads clubs at every postoffice in Bra
EOS County. BY and through this or
ganization we can reach common
ground on which all can stand for de-
velopment of the County by good roads
as the needs of each should be cared
for.
At present County road bonds can
not be sold at par or nearly so. Road
bonds are a drag on the market, at
