independence.

1t was late afternoon of a day in the
gorgeous month. 4 shower had fallen
on Red Hill and after it had come the
sun. Wisps Of mars's-tail cloud hur-
ried across the clean-washed heavens
as though they were ashamed to be
caught in their ragged clothes under a
blue sky. Downy-topped masses of
cumulus poked drowsy heads over the
horizon and watched them run. Out
of the dome of heaven filtered a single
trill of song.
The Hill was very still but presently
from far away on the West Lake
road came the whinny of d horse: a
little later, little nearer a peal of
laughter; then the sound of wheels and
chattering voices. A wagonette, two
spring wagons and a pony cart burst
from Long lane and wheeled right and
left. They were full of grown-ups
turned young for a day and youths
that thought they would be young for
ever.
The wagonette, swinging down the
road toward Maple house, suddenly
swerved and plowed through the tall
grass. Alan and Glen on the end seats
were almost thrown out Alan looked
back at the road and stared. A fat
donkey had claimed the right of way
and held it. Several lengths of legs
stuck out from her bullying sides. Be
hind her hurried a painting nurse.
Alan turned to Glen. do donkeys

"Oh! I hope not" said Glen graves

ours while you We're away"

Alan. well, that's something"
SILLY" said Glen, you've been see
Ing that donkey every day for weeks"
NO" said Alan, "this is the first
time I've really seen her"
The sun took a last long look at Red
Hill and dropped out Of sight Then,
as though he would come back and
look again. he sent up a broad after
glow that climbed and climbed till the
tip of the very clouds that peeped over
East mountain were tinged with the
rosy light.
From an open upstairs window came
Clems soft voice. Yes. dears. pink
ntght-caps. Those big sleepy clouds are
putting them on because they are just

Gerry had always been quiet but
during the long drive from the station
to The Firs, his silence amounted to a
it did not depress her; she knew her
self to be in the presence of a COM
munion. Gerry was devoting the hour
of his return to the scenes of his boy
hood to a silent conservation. These
cool valleys and hoilows; the Lew
road, with it's purltng accompaniment
OF hidden waters; the EMPOWERED still
nave of Long lane, were as the ances-
trail halls of the Lansings. It was right
that he should do homage to the mem
cries they evoked.
To his mother Gerry made no expla-
nations. He knew that to her 1t was
enough that her boy had come back.
When Mrs. Lansing released him, AK
caught his hand and led him up to the
nursery. Together they looked down
upon their sleeping child.
Gerry, Jr., was fat to the verge Of
a split His curly tow head was
tousled and on his brow slight per-

The fre1gnter reached quarantine
after a quiet voyage twelve hours
ahead of time and just at sundown
A tug hurried down the bay to tell
them their berth was not ready. The
freighter was forced to anchor at the
mouth of the narrows. Gerry watched
the lights spring out from the shadOwy
shores. They beckOned him to familiar
scenes. Staten Island had been to his
boyhOod an undiscovered land and the
scene of his first wanderings. Bay
shore he knew through constant pass
ing by. In the sky beyond it, hung the
glow of the summer city, here and
there pierced with the brighter fame
Of some grOtesque mOnstrOsity.
Up the bay the dark waters fOrked
into two bands that lost themselves in
q sea and sky of twinkIing lights. He
could just determine the sweeping arch
Of Brooklyn bridge and the presence of
more than one new Tower Of Babt1
that broke the eyer-changing skyline
of his native city and made him feel,
by that much, forgotten and an alien.
But from all the myriad lesser lights
his eyes turned gratefully to the high
held torch Of Liberty. Beneath il the
familiar. tilted diadem, the shadOwy
folds draping the outstanding pose
the strength and steadfastness and the
titanic grandeur of the statue, carried
their message to him as never before
1t became to him what its creator had
conceived, an emblem, and the myriad
little waves Of the bay, rushing to fling
themselves at the feet of the goddess.
became a multitude, eager for attain.

His eyes wandered Slowly o-rer the
familiar scene. From behind their
trees Maple house, The Firs and Elm
house blinked up at him dreamily. Be-
fore them ran the ribbon of road,
white under moonlight, dipping at each
end into the wide world Up and down
the road before The FRS. paced two
fgures-Gerry and AK Gerry's arm
was around her. Long black shad-
ows, all pointing to the west, like
fallen siihouettes cut the MOONLIGHT.
Above then, the autumn-painted trees
gave out a golden echo of light.
Alan drew a great, auivering breath.
MY boy, you have been far far
away" ]. Y. had said and he had an
swered, yes, but have come back"
But it was only now, tonight, that he
had really come back.
Alan'S wandering eyes settled on
Maple house. Even as a hen gather
eth her chickens under her wings" he
whispered.
And then the peace of home descend
ed upon him. On his SCARED spirit he
felt the touch of the healing hands of
home. Its sweetness and its power. its
love everlasting demanding love for
ever. knocked at his waking heart and
found the door open. Far, far had he
wandered in the world of mind and
the world of men. but in the end he
had come back like a Wayne TO the
eternal mother of the Waynes. To-
night he knew that his drifting soul
had dropped anchor at last.

They shook hands solemnly. mount

had found the key to Kemp's strength.
It was the key Of strength. Kemp be-
longed on the Hill, and with the people
Of true blood anywhere, not only be-
cause he was himself always but be-
cause he defended what he could hold
and no more. He was a definition for
independence.

Beyond the mountain-ash thicket a
love-sick Bob White kept saying
Goodnight" to his mate She an
swered sleepily.
From Maple house, The Firs, and far
down the road, from Elm house warm
lights flashed out and settled down
into steady glow. A burst of young
voices swept into the night and died
away, followed into the silence by soft
laughter. From The Firs came the
last angry wall OF the fat young god,
chOked off in midflight by the soft
hand Of sleep. Then the scurrying Of
many feet along the dusty road, silence,
and last of all, the trailing whistle o!
a boy signaling good-night-sound say
Ing good-by to happy day.
Hours passed before the moon
popped into the sky, hurrying just at
first as though she knew she were
forty minutes late again. One by one
lights went out. Other lights cleaned
from upper windows; then they, in
turn, went out. Red Hill had gone to
bed.
From Maple house Alan slipped out
to smoke last cigar. He hesitated a
moment and then strobe through the
long grass laden with seed and just
decking itself with dewy jewels for the
night. He crossed to the old church
The door was open. he entered and
climbed the crumbHng stairs to the
belfry. He jumped into one of the
arches and sat down, his legs dangling.

Nothing could stop her. Justice Kiefer

CAPTAIN GOT NEW TROUSERS
Incident That Has More Than a Touch
Of Comedy ocucrred on the

How near tragedy and comedy arc In
the happenings along the battle line
is shown by this incident of the fight
ing on the Isonzo front.

had gone from the Italian side was hit
by the antiaircraft guns and fell with
in the Austrian lines. The pilot was
killed, the observer was somewhat
scratched, but otherwise unhurt. His
trousers, however, were ripped from

he said:

IF that Is all" remarked the Aus
trian, well soon mend that" And,
after obtaining permission, he went
up to his Fokker machine and threw
a letter into the Italian line, acquaint-
Ing them with the fact, and request

Sure enough, an hour or so later
there was an Italian machine high in
the air, and a package dropped that
contained u laurel wreath for the dead
and a pair of trousers for the living.
