Margaret's heart when she learned it was
boy; and you can imagine how she felt
when she saw he was one Of those sol
emnly observing babies who seem to be
taking notes Of everything they see.
@We'll have to save a little every year, :"
she said now, speaking almost under her
breath. "If it's only dollar week, it'll
amount to a lot by the time he's eighteen. :
"Hang it all, said Paul, Il ought to be
getting raise. It's three years now since
l had the last. Guess I'll have to strike
Old Nails for another five."
LIE said this in a jaunty manner, as IT
: : it would be the simplest thing in the
world to march up to E. M. Nailor, Esq,
president of the Nailor Supply Company,
seize him by his beard, and shake another
five dollars week out of him. But in
wardly Paul didn't feel jaunty at all.
For he owed the doctor twenty-seven
dollars, and the groceryman thirty-fve,

had privately appeared there for nearly
two years, or ever since Paul had expected
another raise and hadn't got it.
"We'll have to save little money every
year." she said, speaking almost under her
breath. "If it's only dollar week,
Paul, it'll amount to lot by the time he's
eighteen"
And now (this being my last remark on
the side) | must tell you something, or
rather hint at something which will help
to explain the extraordinary part of my
story. Following the example of Elisa
beth of old, Margaret had prayed for a
son before little Paul was born, and had
always added as sort of p S. to the
good Lord who made us all: "And please,
please, please let him be bright" Pursu-
ing the same idea, she had confined her
reading to the best literature, and her
piano-playing to the best music.
Later Paul, Jr., was born; and you can
imagine the emotion that swept through
Evening star., 1916-09-17

aHang it all, Margaret" protested
Paul, 4you talk as though you were taking
his part!'
at does sound SO, doesn't it?' Margaret
thoughtfully replied. 4But I'm sure l
didn't mean to. was only trying to un.
derstand his point Of view."
@That's easy! He thinks he's got me:
that's $ his point Of view! Remember read
ing the other night about the old Romans
and their galley slaves? Well, that's what
it is. He's one of those old Romans, and
I'm one of his galley slaves"
=Oh, Paul, moi Listen, dear. II you
were really and truly slave, wouldn't
you fight to break loose?"
@You bet your life would"
sOf course you would! And that's
what you'll have to do, Paul. II you
feel you're slave at Majors, you'll have
to break loose and get somewhere else"
aOh, sure!' cried Paul, with laugh
that wasn't infectious. 4But if throw

However that may be, tho crisis that came
to my hero is more common than you may
think, and more men have either broken
their hearts or founded their fortunes
upon it than you or will ever know.
Paul was a good-looking young Amer
ican about twenty-five years old, of a
type that is often seen in the photograph
ers show-case-thin clean-shaved, seri-
Gus, with the crest of white handkerchief
billowing out of dark breast-pocket.
Like thousands of other young Americans,
he had been through high school, but
hadn't been able to go to college. At
eighteen he had started work, partly to
support himself and partly to support his
family. Having too much education to
learn trade and not enough to follow
a profession, Paul did what practically
every one else does in circumstances SINH
lar to his. He joined the great army of
clerks.
Now, in order to understand more
clearly what follows, it is necessary that
you should realize what clerk really
is. So let us describe the genus as briefly
as possible, and all those who don't agree
are hereby invited to write letter and
point out any mistakes.
a clerk, then, is u man who is eX-
pccted to live and dress "like a
gentleman" on wages that hod-car-
rier would laugh at. His three RS
are Regularity, Responsibility, and
Repression. He must be pleasant
when nothing pleases him, cheerful /
when nothing cheers him, and have
Il constant smile on tap when he'd
rather use his foot. A clerks idea of
heaven is an Independent income of
$40 week and a little farm where he
could raise his own vegetables and
keep few chickens. His idea of hades ,
is to lose his job. He has two suits
of clothes a year, two clean collars a
week, keeps in a closet the silk hat
he wore the day he was married, and
is always deeply enough in debt so
he can easily stay awake from mid
night to daybreak whenever the boss
has been unusually sharp the day be-
fore. His golden hope is that some
day he may be taken into the firm.
Such was Paul Manion in the
twenty-ffth year of his age-assistant
office manager of the Nailor Supply
Company; that is to say, he kept the
books, attended to the routine cor
rcspondence, and wore a neat cuff
at the bottom of each of his trouser legs.
On the strength of his golden hope he
had married girl with straightforward
blue eyes, who could play "The Shower of
Stars" in a way to touch your heart. She
was thorough girl, was Margaret, as you
will presently see.
PAUL and Margaret lived in the suburbs
because Of their two children. Little
Margaret had just turned three, and on
the day when my story opens young Paul
was celebrating his second birthday.
"lle's going to make a clever man, said
Paul, ST., after the immemorial manner of
fathers. "Just look at his forehead! l
tell you one thing, Margaret: that boys

in shame and terror.
What Teacher said to Max and what
he said to her was never known to
the children. But, the next morning,
just after the opening exercises,
Teacher addressed the class.
Children" she said pleasantly.
Max did not tell mo who wrote on
the blackboard. In fact, 1 did not
urge him to do so-for 1 did not really
want him to. That would have made
him a 'tattle-tale.' as you children
say. And 'tattletale' is almost as
bad as one who tells lies.
IF Max had written on the board
himself and then refused to admit he
had done so and tried to lie out of it,
1 would have made him confess or ex-
PEELED him froEi school. But, of
course. knew he was not guilty. And
1 am proud to say that Max would
not purchase his own comfort and re-
lease by becoming a 'tattle-tale.'

PEGGY'S POPPING PARTY

M eggs birthday was coming
~ and her parents promised her a
Popcorn Party. Great were the
preparations for this affair, be-
cause the little hostess made up her
mind that 1t was to be the best ever
given in the neighborhood.
When mother told her that she
might entertain her friends, she also
said: You can have all the children
of the neighborhood, and your cousins,
but you must attend to the sending
out Of the invitations yourself and
you must make the souvenirs and
chains of popcorn. l shall be too
busy with the baby to give the party
any time"
You bet I'll do 1t all myself" cried
the excited child, land I'll be very
thankful to you and papa for giving
me such lovely birthday present"
Peggy set to work with a will to
getting out the invitation-cards. She
used corn-colored paper and in one
corner of the sheet she drew an ear
of corn which she tinted with her
water colors. The notes ran thus:
