CHAPTER v.
The Hermit Sings.

The next morning l demanded that
Mrs. Temple again put me up some
lunch. "For," said I, I'm going to
postpone meeting this broken-down
wreck of a perhaps once proud female
as long as possible"
Maybe when you see her drive by
you'll be sorry," Mrs. Bert smiled.
II shall be working on the south
side Of the house," retorted.
I had not been long at my place,
indeed, I had scarcely finished water
ing my seeded and carting out my
daily stint of two barrowloads Of
slash from the orchard, when I heard
the road scraper rattling over the
bridge by the brook, Mike came from
the vegetable garden and met his
Grind Morrissy," to whom I was cere-
moniously presented.
The scraper was large affair with
fat-tired iron wheels and a blade
eight feet long. The way that eight
foot blade. with four horses hauling it,
peeled of the old burrows and brought
the top soil down from the high side
Ito the low made my poor efforts with
the scoop look puny enough The lawn
was shaping up so fast that I began
once more to grow expansive.
cit really won't be square," thought
I, because my pergola will cut off
twelve feet Of the length, and If
have flower beds by the roses they'll
cut off some more. I guess those roses
ought to be one hundred and twelve
feet from the house."
threw down my shovel, went over
to the row Of stakes, and moved them
south again, twenty-five feet having
added thirteen feet as I walked; then
I called out to ''frind Morrissy" to
bring his scraper.
Sure" said Mike, you'll git it right
yet But l was goin' to put me cauh-
| flowers there"

tall weeds and grasses, and remained
hidden till the buggy had passed.
"Confounded petticoatsr' thought I.
"Well, If she tries to advise me, I'll

Then I finished my lunch, and lay
for a quarter of an hour lazily regard
ing the sky, a great blue sky with
cloud ships floating at anchor in its
depths, while the indescribable fra
GRANGE of May in moist places filled
my nostrils and a song sparrow prac-
ticed in the alders. AS I got up to
return to my work, I saw suddenly
that the old apple trees in my orchard
were showing pinkvjust frail hint
of it in the veil Of young green. A
great cumulus cloud piled up like a

THE NATION Is SHOCKING
LY UNPREPARED.

It is apparent that we are
shockingly unprepared There Is
no room for controversy on this
point since the object lesson on
the Mexican border. All our
available regular troops Cess, I
believe, than 100000 are there
or in Mexico, and as these have
been deemed insufficient the en-
tire national guard has been Or
dered out That is, we are sum-
montng practically all our NOV
able military forces in order to
prevent bandit incursions. In
view Of the warnings Of the past
three years, It is ineXcusable
that we should find ourselves In
this plight. For our faithful
guardsmen, who with a fine pa
tr1otism responded to this call
and are bearing this burden, I
have nothing but praise. But I
think it little short Of absurd
that we should be compelled to
call men from their shops, their
factories, their Offices and their
professions for such a purpose.
This, however, is not all. The
units Of the national guard were
at peace strength, which was
only about one-half the required
strength. It was necessary to
bring in recruits, for the most
part raw and unframed. Only a
small percentage Of the regiments
recruited up to war strength will
have had even a years training
In the national guard, which at
the maximum means a hun
bred hours Of military drill, and,
on the average, means much less.
Men fresh from their peaceful
emplOyments and physically I'M
prepared have been hurried to
the border for actual service.
They We're without proper equip
ment, without necessary sup
plies; suitable conditions Of trans
pOrtat1On were not provided. Men
with dependent families were
sent, and conditions which should
have been we'll known were dis
covered after the event. And
yet the eXigency, comparatively
speaking. was not very grave
one. It involved nothing that
could not readily have been fore
seen during the past three years
Of disturbance and required only
a modest talent for organization.
That this administration while
pursuing its course in Mexico
should have permitted such con-
ditions to exist Is almost In
credible-From Mr.. Hughes
