Stephens answer was a five page
declaration of independence. He re-
fused to be bullied by any living man.
He had made arrangements to come to
New York on the following Monday,
and he was coming. AS to being sent
back, he wished his uncle to under
stand that it was one thing to order
and another to enforce obedience. To
which he received the following note:

for him at present, he tore up the long
letter of grievance which he had writ
ten her and in that which took its
place mentioned merely that he was
grinding like blazes," and the only
satisfaction he got from it was his re-
moval from the society of the "old
tyrant from Cape Cod"
He accepted the tyrant's invitation
to return for the week end and his sis
ter's birthday with no hesitation what
ever, and his letter of acceptance was
so polite as to be almost humble.
He arrived on an early train Satur-
day morning. Caroline met him at the
station, and the Dunns' car conveyed
him to the latter's residence, where
they were to spend the day. The Dunns
and Caroline had been together almost
constantly since one evening when
Malcolm and his mother interrupted
the reading of the novel. The former,
while processing to be harassed by
business cares, sacrificed them to the
extent of deyoting at least a part of
each twenty-four hours to the young
lady's society. She was rarely allowed
to be alone with her uncle, a circum-
stance which troubled her much less
than it did him. He missed the even
ings which he had enjoyed so much,
and the next consultation over the adj
ventures of Pearson's Uncle Jim" and
his Mary seemed fiat and uninterest-
ing without criticism and advice.
The author himself noticed the diff
ference.
"Rot!'' he exclaimed, throwing the
manuscript aside in disgust. Its rot,
isn't it! If l can't turn out better stuff
than that I'd better quit. And l thought
it was pretty decent, too, until to-
night"
Captain Elisha shook his head. at

yourself. Why don't you take tomor-

They spent the next afternoon in
that "cruise," visiting department
stores, jewelers. and art shops innumer-
able. Captain Elisha vas hard to

School Bond Election

Just few words as to our school
and the election to be held today.
AS to the school conditions little need
be said as enough has been said and
written as to crowded conditions Of
children in the rooms-and even
then not room-with many children
not attending for lack of room I
am informed there is strong opposi-
ton to the proposed measure. I am
certainly interested in the welfare
and upbuilding of our little city and
its community. I shall regard it as .
calamity and a step backward. We
are inviting people to come here and
invest their money and make their
home with us-we have refused the
Chautauqua's return for 1918. Now
to refuse to make suitable provision
to school our ehildren-so many,
and % bright and anxious to learn
and improve their mental status
seems a paradox to me.
I am not going to make severe
criticism Of those who oppose the
efforts to improve our school condi-
ton, for in this land of personal
liberty as it has been, they have .
right 70 their opinion and to express
it in proper manner at the polls.
Some Of the heaviest taxpayers are
heartily in favor Of it, and some Of
our wealthiest men are opposing it a.
am informed, and some who are
very small taxpayers who have no
'.nildren Of their own but have those
that are nearly related and whose
welfare they should consider. It
seems strange they should want to
record their opposition to such
measure to be placed on file for fu-
ture reference. The country is at
war, but are we to withdraw our
support fom all matters having to
deal with the welfare of our child
rem. the future citizens of our diff.
ferent communities. The, material
chi, d,tions of this section were never
more favorable than at present ami
while the climatic conditions may
affect US adversely to some extent
in my way of thinking, we should 60
along the even tenor of our way,
waste absolutely nothing as near a.

foods fit for canning or that will
