THE WALTZ
BY LOUISE OLIVER.

Billy Kennard opened the door Of
his dresry little bedroom and held a
match to the gas Jet before remov-
ing his hat. The reflection that
sprang into view in the mirror of the
bureau showed a face strong and
good-looking, but full of trouble
drawn lines.
Failure in ones life work-music
1t was with Billy--is bad enough, but
to fall in love with girl as far above
you as the planets is just about the
limit of human endurance. Tonight
he had seen her again, more beauti-
full than ever.
He looked at himself now in the
mirror. ,"You poor penniless fool, "
he muttered, ito go crazy over girl
when It's all you can do to live. Who
are you to even think OF herr"
But in spite of his words, he opened
an evening paper to the society col
umn. He watched daily for her name,
or rather for her family's name, for
he did not know which, Of the Eth
eridge girls she was.
An item caught his eye and he read
1t eagerly. The Etheridges were to be
at the Arlingfords' bal masque on
the next night And he was to play
there after the theater!
He finally went to bed and dreamed
of columbines and shepherdesses.
queens and flower girls, all with eyes
like those of the girl he loved. beg
ging him to play the Dream" waltz.
The next day was years long, and
the play that night dragged insult.
ferably. At last he was free, how
ever, and, with the other members OF
the orchestra, he put his violin in it's
case and took the subway to the
Arlingfords.
He was accustomed to the extrava
gance Of the rich, but the magnifi'
cence of the ballroom tonight fairly
took his breath. Il must put all this
nonsense of mine out of my head,
he thought. "A girl accustomed ia
things like this is not for me even to
think about" And resolving to put
away forever the little waltz, the
music he had learned to associate
with the girl, he took his place among
the musicians on the stage.
Henry of Navarro danced with
Mother Goose, Napoleon with Dolly
Madison, and a Crusader with Miss
Mufret. Clowns and columbines, Turks
and fairies, soldiers and milkmaids
few past in a mad whirl, but all were
masked and Billy had no idea which
maid might be the girl he adored-
In spite OF his newly-made resolu
tions, he watched eagerly during the
unmasking, hoping to catch a glimpse
OF the girl, but she was not to be
seen.
a servant handed him an envelope
The Tabor independent. [volume] (Tabor, S.D.) 1913-19??, 1915-12-02

He read the inclosed note eagerly.
Someone had asked him to meet her
in the winter garden Immediately.
Billy crushed the note into his
pocket, made his excuses, and, with
the aid of the servant, found the win
ter garden.
Under a bay tree, looking as de-
mure as a Quakeress, was the miss
ing Miss Etheridge. She smiled and
held out her hand.
Good evening, Mr.. Kennard."
Billy was afraid to touch her hand,
and more afraid to speak. But It was
up to him to say something.

Tia Hart and thu Vine.

A Hart, hard pressed in the chase,
hid himself beneath the large leaves
Of a Vine. The huntsmen, in their
haste, overshot the place of his con-
cealment, when the Hart, supposins
all danger to have passed. began to
nibble the tendrils Of the Vine. One
of the huntsmen, attracted by the
rustling OF the leaves, looked back,
and, seeing the Hart, shot an arrow
from his bow, and killed It. The Hart,
at the point OF death, groaned out

Henry Ford is being sharply
criticised from all directions for
his little peace expedition to Eu
rope where he intends to see if the
war cannot be stopt. Henry
claims that the people of those
countries do not know what they
are fighting for and the war was
instigated and started at the be-
hest of the capitalists and the rul-
ing classes. There is no question
that the present war is a CONNER
tial war and Ford's guess is right.
Germany started the war by com
mandiug its vassal, Austria, to
strike at Serbia for no other rea-
son that Germany could expand
aud enlarge her commercial field
and ultimately rule the world.
The other countries defended
themselves against this aggression
and the calamity was completed.
We doubt that there is a single
man in the German trenches who
knows why his Vaterland ordered
its henchman, Austria, to attack
Serbia, and neither does the Aus
trian soldier know. We believe
Ford is right, but his plan of
bringing about peace is impracti-
