INSTALL Sc SEATS
AT HIGH SCHOOL

Forced by crowded conditions at the
high school to make room for almost
one hundred more students, the school
board has arranged to add ninety-six
seats in the auditorium. Measure
ments showed that the present system
of seating occupied more room than
was necessary and more than was
used in the average theatre. The
space between seats will be shortened
two inches which will allow placing
three more rows of SEATS

"Howdy, Mis- Cooper, howdy!" said
George Hedrick politely to Aleck Coop
er's wife as she stepped YEARLY up on
to the porch, a basket Of eggs on either
arm and a general appearance of moist
fatigue about her. Lloyd Johnson, sent
on an errand by his wife, had dawdled
with the storekeeper for the last two
hours, the first quarter Of which had
sufficed for Hedrick to wiring him dry
Of what meager store Of news he pos
sessed. Mrs. Cooper's hoard Of gossip,
II she possessed any, would be of the
grievance variety, and Hedrick shrank
from tapping it on a hot afternoon. It
was, therefore, with a feeling Of pleas
ant anticipation that he heard the soft
slipslop Of a pacing horse approaching
along the road.
With three pairs Of eyes anxious
~ awaiting him Adrian Blair swung
suddenly into view around the turn,
mounted on a high headed black horse,
whose sleek sides shimmered in the
May sunshine Adrian rode with a con-
scious air Of superiority, fully aware
Of the excitement he caused, and as he
came opposite the store a dexterous
heel made the horse bound spiritedly
from side to side Of the road, with
arched neck and ripping tail.
Nothing of the whole performance
was lost upon the storekeeper, and as
Adrian called a greeting to him he
rose from his chair and, sweeping off
his hat, bowed low in elaborate sar-
caSm.
The other waved a gracious hand in
reply.
"Oh, don't mind me" he called back
condescendingly. II was err poor mar
once myself" And dashing into the
ford he sent the water up In high
showers Of silver spray. and without
pausing to drink he and his horse, a
dazzling spectacle, were presently lost
around the next bend Of the road.
Fleeing as Abrams appearance was
upon the scene, it nevertheless opened
the sluice gate of conversation.

manded, with keen disapproval show
ing in his lugubriously lank counte'

that there surely are fairies even In

is not impossible of realization in this
practical age of early enlightenment.
Even the fact that all the fairies bore
names we'll known in the various

only added to the interest the audi

Some forty years ago, an impGlsiYe,
active, merry lad by the name OF Dan
Crawford was growing up In Green
ock. Scotland. a leader in all the
boyish sports of the town but making
time somehow to learn many passages
from the poets and to commit page
after page of Macauley. AS this boy
came to manhood he studied law for
three years and was about to enter
the legal profession when new IN
fluence enriched and deepened his
life This compelling personality was
none other than Professor Henry
Drummond, then giving his illuminat-
ing lectures at the universities OF
Scotland: His call to service met a
quick response in Dan Crawford. In
company with other young men he
formed the West End Christian I'm.
ion" in his town and held meetings up
and down Scotland, kindling. new
fire in the sedate religious 'observ-
ances, then popular. %
q Although brought up thorough
going Presbyterian, Crawford's Bible,
studies brought him into sympathy
with the Baptist position and his per-
sonaI relationships led him into close
touch with the famous George Null
Ter of Bristol. No doubt the Muller
doctrine Of dependence on God rather
than on human instruments was re-
sponsible for Crawford's decision to
go out to Africa with the backing of
no society behind him, and is the rea-
son why he has for over twenty years
depended upon what might come to
him in proyidential ways for support.
At the time of his conversion the
way was opened for university
course at Cambridge, and to a man OF
his scholarly tastes and capacities
this was most tempting opportunity.
Al predisposition to tuberculosis seem
ed likely to develop, however, and
II became necessary for him to leave
Scotland. Most OPPORTUNITY he was
enabled to join a small party starting
out under the leadership of F. s. Ar.
not for. missionary work in Africa.
With them Crawford left London in
1889 after a great missionary meeting
at Exeter Hall, London, convened to
