NOW. after a weeks confinement IN
his cabin he felt strong enough tv ven-
ture out again and to attack his prob
lens. They were personal problems
now, much more intimate than before,
for he was building not only the bridge
but weaving in its web Of steel his own
future happiness.
OF course he had been able to get
out on the rough porch of his galvan-
lied iron shack where he had the
bridge in full view, and the day before
he had even walked unsteadily down to
the river bank, where he had been
equally surprised and delighted ut the
progress that had been made. Abbott
was driver after his own heart. Real
iy things seemed to have gone on just
as well without him as II he had been
on the job. He had not been lonely in
his illness, for all Of the chief men con-
nected with the construction had done
their best to beguile the tedium Of his
hours by visiting him whenever they
could spare the time.
Abbott had been especially kind IN
his somewhat rough-and-ready way.
The big construction superintendent
was fond of Meade, although he un-
dervalued him. He regarded him more
as theoretical than practical man
and the inevitable antagonism between
the theorist and the practical man,
when they are not combined in one per.
sonality, was latent In Abbott's heart.
Nightly, he brought to Meade details
of the progress of the work. That eve
ming. Just before leaving, he remarked
in the most casual manner in the world,
as If It were a matter Of little or no Inn
portance, that C-10-R was trifle out
of line.
Now C-1O-R vas the biggest membtu

getful Of his caution. Before he could
complete his step or warn her Of the
danger, 1t now bent forward. 1t tilted
distinctly. In spite Of herself, Helen
Illingworth was carried still farther
forward as she sought to regain her
balance. The piece Of steel began to
slip downward, grating on the pile Of
beams as 1t moved; another second

rcvocably.
Meade threw himself nt the girl He
lunged out and caught her just as she
was slipping downward with the plate
now almost perpendicular. To catch
her he had to step to the very edge OF
the planking beyond which the rails
ran naked on the ties.
With tremendous effort he caught
her by the waist, swung her up md In,
and stood fast on the brink qulvering,
heaving himself desperately backward
as he sought to maintain his balance
and take the backward step that meant
safety.
A wild shout rose from the steamer
ms the huge plate dropped, like the
blade OF mighty guillotine, straight
down through the air. If 1t had struck
the boat, 1t would have cut through
like n knife. Fortunately It cleared

arose from the boat which promptly
sheered or into midstream.
Helen Illingworth's back had been
toward Meade as he seized her. She
had seen as he had everything that
he stepped back slowly, almost drag
ging her, Intil they were Il safe dis
tance from the edge. His face was
CHASTITY white in the moonlight. Sweat
covered his forehead. He was shaking
like n wlnd-blown leaf.
"The whole world went black when
saw you 60" he said slowly.
''Do you care that much?" asked the
girl, trembling herself.
There was no necessity for maidenly
retlcence now.

Suddenly he swept her to his breast
as this time she faced him. She was
very near him and she did not make
the slightest resistance. She had wait
ed for this hour and she was glad.
They had faced death too nearly for
any hesitation now. She knew he
loved her, and knew that he had
saved her at the imminent risk of HIS
own life. There had been swift yet
eternal moments when it seemed that
both OF them, trembling on the brink
would follow the downward rush OF

COMMUNITY SINGING is
TO BE HELD NEXT WEEK

The next Community Singing meeting
will be held on Friday evening, Feb
ruary 23. The first attempt in Commu-
nifty Singing was such a pronounced
success that it was decided to let the
good work continue, but it was thought
best not to have the meetings too close
together, and thus four weeks was al
lowed to elapse between the first two
meetings. -...E.
Those who attended the first gathering
were so we'll pleased that the committee
has faith that at the next one there will
be much larger attendance.
