HIS NIGHT RAMBLE
BY SELMA ELIZABETH HIGGINS.

BY SELMA ELIZABETH HIGGINS.
John, people are beginning to talk
about you"
That so?" retorted John Durand,
smiling at his sister Keziah in his
usual placid good natured way. What
they found out about me, now?"
They say you are no good in the
world, that you are constitutionally
lazy and wonder how l tolerate you
around the house from morning till
night"
Hope you're not getting tired of the
only relative you've got in the world,
keziah." questioned John quizzically.
Not at ALL" declared the old spin
ster promptly. "only you must admit
that the life you live isn't very am
bilious one"

"A little!" sighed Miss Keziah des.

Here you have been offered all kinds |
of positions and you put them of with
all kinds of excuses. Either it's Wash |

leaving the big estate to the neglected
heir.
Just while Walter was making Joy
full plans to marry pretty Lutte Grant
and make all his friends rich, a Sec
ond will was discovered leaving the
estate to his half-cousin, Roche Marsh.
1t antedated the Ross will, but when
Walter came to prove the one under

es was dead, the other, Robert Troy,
could not be found! The whole estate
was tied up in court. Walter tried TO
find Troy. He expended all his spare
money advertising for him. writing to
Troy's relatives all over the country.
Then he gave up the inheritance in
despair.
This was the situation of affairs that
evening when at ten o'clock John took
up his cane and with a lunch in his
pocket set out on his customary night
ramble. 1t was a beautiful night and
the landscape was varied and lovely.
A good deal that had come to light
that day set John to thinking, SO he
had little time for poetry. He wan
dered aimlessly about, lulled by the
sweet sounds of the night and finally
sat down on fallen tree at the round
ing end of the lake, to enjoy his lunch,
perhaps snooze for a spell in the radi.
ant moonlight and then resume his
night tramp.
Hello! Who's that, / wonder?" alb.
ruptly calculated John.
A man had appeared on the opposite
side Of the lake, coming from the d.
rection Of the town. Abruptly, as ire
passed over a rocky patch of the
beach his foot caught In a loose stone.
He tumbled forward, his head struck
rock and there, face down and suo-
merged in the water, he Law ..nanimate.
why, he's in trouble, In danger"
fairly shouted John.
He was fat and leisurely, was John
Durand, but In flash he realized the
peril Of the stranger Within a very
few minutes shallow as was the water
he would suffocate. Never had John
run as he ran now. The unusual exer.
ton so exhausted him that by the time
he rounded the lake he was gasping
for breath, just managed to drag the
stranger from the water and then he
himself collapsed all in heap.
1t was an hour before the stranger
recovered consciousness and Johns
first question was:
who are you, anyway"
MY name is Robert Troy" began
the other and John interrupted him
with wild cry Of delight, in a fash
foreseeing all the future of Walter
Ross and pretty Lutte assured.
Through a stray advertisement the
witness to the will had learned that he
was wanted. Within a week Walter
had returned, the will was proven and
there was rich reward for Troy and
merry wedding at the Durand home.
John" said Keziah, penitently but
proudly, as she realized how much Of
happiness had come through him, 4

indeed, some good-all good"

1.-THE Eyes of the World''
Will Be Shown at Arm
DRY, Jan. II and Is

IL is DelleVeQ Dy many people
that the greatest future useful
ness of the motion picture will
be in the field of reproduction of
established works of literature.
The double pleasure given to a
reader, after perusing a book
and forming a mental picture of
| it's characters, of seeing them
metamorphosed into moving fig
ures, must always be greater
than looking upon the ordinary
film offering.
Harold BELL Wright, whose
novel, "The Winning of Barbara
Worth" made famous the won
ders of the Imperial valley, and
whose THE Eyes of the World"
celebrated the fame of San Ber-
nardino county, California, prom
Uses to become supreme in this
new influence of the author.
His first book to be picturized,
"The Eyes of the World" has
just been completed, and will be
shown here for the first time at
the Stafford Armory, Wednesday
and Thursday, January 18th and
18th.
1t was while recuperating in
the Ozarks from an attack of
pneumonia that Wright was led by
circumstances to take up special
church work. Being a regular
attendant at services held in the
little mountain log school house,
he was asked one Sunday to
talk to the people, when the reg
ular preacher had failed to ap-
pear.
From this Sunday morning talk
and others that followed, he came
to feel that he could do more
good in this line of work than in
any other field of labor, and soon
thereafter accepted an offer to
speak regularly at Pierce City,
Missouri.
Later he left Pierce City for a
larger work of similar nature at
Pittsburg, Kansas. Here he re-
ceived enthusiastic support from
the church people, but still he
was not satisfied.
That Printer of Udells" was
written while in Pittsburg, with
out thought of offering it for
publication, but some of his
friends persuaded him not to
read the story, but to offer it for
publication, thus giving it a wider
usefulness.
After one year in Kansas City,
Mr.. Wright found that he was
not physically able to carry
out the great city work as he had
dreamed it, on a scale that would
satisfy his desire for social SER
vice, and he began seriously to
consider if there was not some
other way that would more
equally with his strength.
He went again to the Ozarks and
began to write THE Shepherd of
the Hills
When Mr.. Wright delivered
the manuscript to his publishers
in 1907, for publication the next
fall, he had gone to reside in
Redlands, Cal, seeking in that
land of sunshine larger meas
use of health.
Some months later, he went to
the Imperial valley, and there,
the following year, wrote The
Calling of Dan Matthew'S
Following Their Yesterdays"
came The Eyes of the World"
in 1914. 1t was written in the
same arrowhead study on Teco-
lote Rancho, in the Imperial val
ley, where he wrote The Call
ing of Dan Matthews" and THE
Winning of Barbara Worth.
The modern trend in music,
books, art and drama had so in
censed the author that THE
Eyes of the World" was the re-
suit of his impelling desire for
cleaner living and thinking.
