bered scenes came back so wildly to
his remembrance. 1t was. four years
since he had left Wakefield to make
his way in the world, and now, at the
age Of 26, he was back, Brenner's
guest, and already with an estab-
ished position in the city.
1t was an open secret that he had
come back to ask Madge to be his
wife They we're old friends. She
had written to him sometimes, and
there, was always note of intimacy

love affair, though no word had been
spoken.
And they received him like an old
friend. When Madge shook hands
with him he felt the same subtle
touch of sympathy And Edith, her
sister, smiled as she greeted him.
She seemed to everybody
knew the purpose of his return during
that week that he was to be the
guest of his fathers Oldest friend.
Squire Bremen alluded tactfully to
the impending engagement as they
strolled under the big chestnut trees
together.
"The man who gets Madge will be
lucky fellow" he said. "She is a
girl of sterling merit And she will
inherit a good deal of money" Then
he turned suddenly and shook hands
with TIE young fellow.
In the old days he and Leslie Carter
had been rivals for Madge. Leslie
had borne no malice when his suit
was gently declined Leasing had
hardly expected to see Carter there,
but he seemed to be on intimate
terms with the family. He, too, was
a weekend guest at the Bremen
home.
During dinner Leasing noticed with
touch of the old jealousy that Car
ter seemed to have established a
brotherly relationship with the girls.
And this was needed to kindle the
young mans determination. He
would ask Madge that night.
The opportunity was easily ar
rived at, for the squire retired to his
library, and Mrs. Bremen nodded
over her sewing. The girls and Car
ter had gone out into the garden, .
Leasing lingering behind to settle
Mrs. Bremen in her chair and put
the knitting needles in her lap. Then
he hurried out.
Madge was waiting for him! That
was blunt way of putting it, and

drawing is concerned, but in this way the
weaker club has no advantage-and It
should have advantage.
Many suggestions have been offered for
amending the drafting rule. This seems
about the best:
Give Tailenders First Choice.
Let the tailend team have first choice Of
all the men drafted, the seventh place team
have second choice, the sixth place team
have third choice and so up the ladder
giving the first place club last choice in
selecting drafted player. After the first
club has made its choice start over again
but on this occasion allow only seven clubs
TO pick a player, the first place team being
eliminated in this second choice. On the
third choice allow only six clubs to choose
players, on the fourth choice allow only
five clubs and 50 on until only the tail end
club be allowed to make a choice on the
eighth selection
Would Work Well, Belief
This system would result III the last place
club getting eight players, the first place
club only one player the second place club
two, and so on Such plan would work
out well because the topnotch clubs make
more money than DO the second division
teams, and, Of course, have the money to
buy players before the drafting season
starts.
