CHAPTER XIII.
The Connie Problem,


flt Mr.. Starr was getting ready to GO

about him with anxious eyes. This
was their fifth conference since com.
Ting to Mount Mark--the time limit
for Methodist ministers was five years.
/ The STAIRS, therefore, would be trans
I;ferred and where? Small wonder
that the girls followed him around
Il the house and spoke in soft voices and
looked with tender eyes at the old
parsonage and the wide lawn. They
would be leaving it next week. Al
ready the curtains were down, and
Numbered, and packed. The trunks
we're filled, the books we're boxed.
Yes, they were leaving, but whittier

I'VE don't care for big salary or
stylish congregation" Lark added,
"but we don't want to go back to
washpans and kerosene lamps again"
IF you have to choose between a
bath tub, with church quarrel, and
a wash basin with peace and harmony.
we'll take the tub and settle the
scrap!"
The conference was held in Fair
Held and he informed the girls casually
that he would be home on the first
train after the assignments were
made. He said II casually, for he did
not wish them to know how perturbed
he was over the coming change. Dur
ing the conference he tried in many
and devious ways to learn the will of
the authorities regarding his future,
but he found no clue. And at home
the girls were discussing the matter
very little. but thinking of nothing
else They were determined to be
pleased about it.
