Work each minute Of the day
Used TO wonder why he never
Loafed along the road an shirked;
Can t recall time whenever
Father played while others worked.
Father didn't dress in fashion,
Sort Of hated clothing new,
style with him was not a passion,
He had other things in view.
Boys are blind to much that 3 going
On about 'em day by day.
And ] had no way Of knowing
What became Of father S pay.
All ] knew was when ! needed
. Shoes ] got 'em on the spot;
Everything for which l pleaded
Somehow, father always got.
Wondered, season after season,
Why he never took a rest,
And that | might be the reason
Then ! never even guessed
Father set store on knowledge
If he'd lived to have his way
He'd have sent me off to college
And the bills been glad to pay.
That know was his ambition
Now and then he used to say
He'd have done his earthly mission
On my graduation day.
Saw his checks were getting paler,
Didn' understand just why.
Saw his body growing Trailer,
Then at last ] saw him die
Rest had comet His tasks were ended
Calm was written on his brow;
Father 3 life was big and splendid,
And ! understand it now.

His manner of speaking lightly faded

Young Duncan stared at her for mo-
ment, and then, taking his hat, slammed
the door after him. She could see the
puffs of his breath on the frosty air as he
ran beyond the gate.
She could only wait now, and she COW
cred her aching eyes with her hands and
waited for the squeak and crunch of the
snow under the returning footsteps of the
only two men who belonged to her life.
She did not doubt that the old man would
return, and she was right.
Jaffrey's voice said, "No, after you,
SIR at the door. They stood there to-
gether-the two men; but, as Amy only
gazed at them through film Of her tears,
both walked toward the fire.
"Jaffrey DEAR" said Amy at last, II

"Wha'd tell yer?' the old man said,
wheeling toward young Duncan and shak-
ing thegnarled hands and the trimmedc cuffs
at him. II knew you was wrong, Teller.
"Wrong!' exclaimed Amy.
She walked toward her father until her
own eyes were close to his. There was no
sign Of recognition in them for moment !;
and then suddenly they cast upon Amy
one long glance of love so great that it
seemed to shed light upon her.
"Why, don't understand, her father
growled. whats the game? l never
seen this lady before. never been in
this house in my life."

Amy. She could not speak.

"Do you mean to say you never have
been in this room?' the young man asked.
Certainly not. Wouldn't remember
it?" replied the other, buttoning his light
overcoat. "The lady is mistaken. That's
all. The lady is mistaken"
"Wait!' exclaimed Amy.
"There's no use, lady," the other said.

any more than you could convince mo

glad to be OF some good to somebody, I'll
just leave sample of the Marvello right

@Wait!"
But her father backed toward the door,
opened it, slammed it, and was gone.
Amy tried to follow him; but all the
world went dark to her, and then filed
with a myriad of green stars which went
out one by one, until she thought morning
had dawned; and she found herself under
the lamp, her head in the curve of Jaffrey's
arm and her loosened hair falling over his
sleeve.
4Where did he go?" she asked. aQuick!
Where did he go? If the city swallows
him"
"What them"
"Then he will never be seen again. she
said, trying to remember.
4He has gone" said Jaffrey gravely.
II too believe he will never be seen by us
again, and we can do nothing. Are you
all right now?"
Amy held on to the edge Of the chair
and looked out into the night. The
arc lights at the corner showed pedes-
trians hurrying homeward. When the
storm had passed the air had cleared, SO
that now even the sound of the voices Of
