CHAPTER 1.
VACATION.


The winter season was drawing
to a close, as was also the winter
term of school at Devondale
Academy.
A long rigorous winter 1t had
been-something Iery unusual for
that section. For there the wild
birds never flee until October's
suns have kissed the leaves to gold,
and then they return with the flush
of the first March morning, to
blithely carol among the budding
branches in the orchard and in the
wildwood. Spring is joyous enough
when it comes after that brief
Slustery spell that is known in the
South as winter; but when it is a
spontaneous burst of blossoms, a sud
den awakening Of life In the late
inanimate andscape-why. then is
rgre rapture!
Thus Spring came in at Devon
dale, a quiet little village nestled
among the low rolling hills of west
ern Kentucky. The winter had
been the worst in years. 1t had be-
gun in October and continued merci-
lessly cold until late in March. Ice
locked, the streams ceased to flow;
snow and sleet lay on the ground
for months; and to crown 1t all, In
late February, the mightiest blizz-
ard that ever successfully forded the
Ohio came down in all its Arctic
fury. Then followed a period Of
red noses and frost-bitten toes; for
young Kentuckians are inclined to
be hospitable, even to strangers, and
soon got on too intimate terms with
one Mr.. Boreas.
But it all passed, seemingly in
day, as II some fairy had opened
the golden doors of the South and
sent the truant breezes scurrying
through. AS though by magic the
snow left the earth. the birds came
back, and even some adventurous
violets peeped shyly from among the
dead grasses by the paling fences.
All at once. Uncle Charlie Brooks
went out into his garden and began
'sJading up the mellow soil. That
settled the question in the minds of
the Devohdale people. Spring was
here and to stay. Uncle Charities
provsrbial spading meant the spring
seJikice, vernal equinox and what
ever other terms the Devondale peo-
Die had learned from their alma
macs. For he was the local weather
prophet. the forecasting bureau and
the fount OF all local knowledge.
When he spaded his garden the rest
knew Il was Spring and proceeded 10

The Prussian Guard was once
company of archers, known as the
Trabant Guards. II was transformed
into real fighting force by Frederick
William i. Drill with him was a ruling
passion and he lavished much atten-
don on his guard; securing Europe for
giants, as no man under six feet IN
height could enter his pet regiment
This requirement was abolished by
Frederick the Great, who cared only
for fighting ability. The stirring ea-

common. We are all together now !;
tomorrow it will not be So Then
let me ask of each of you that when
ever you think if one, think of all !;
for only in memory can we ever
again congregate in this chapel hall.
That was the truth that he had
spoken, for that was the last chapel
exercise to be held during the term
that was fast drawing to a close.
And, during the last few days they
were prone to look upon Professor
Thompson in new light-a light in
which they had never considered
him before. He was going away
when school closed-back to his
home in Virginia and would likely
never return to Devondale. They
had not thought Of this before.
And, too-the Seniors! They
who had been of their number were
soon to depart from their midst
forever. Though they might meet
often afterwards it would never be
the same again. After the day of
graduation, schooldays would be
consigned to the past. And right
10th were the Seniors now for that
hour to come-they Of the gradual
ing class who had looked forward
with such expectancy to the night
when they should bow with laurel
wreathed brow to the admiring
faces in the crowded auditorium
and hear ringing cheers and plau-
dts bestowed upon them-it was
sad even to them.
Still the warm Spring sunshine
was too enticing for the students
to remain indoors, musinp over the
parting hour. During the recess
period one dould find them lolling
about the campus in numberless
miniature assemblies with a dreamy
light lowering in each eye. This
passionate dream-light was occasion
ed by the sentimental concentration
that is manifested by almost every
schoolboy and girl. 1t is a uniyer-
sal trait. School life. and especial

But just then the bell rang and
hey had to go back to their lessons.
After the graduation exercises
were over the classes were disband-
ed and the pupils dismissed. One
by one, half in sadness. half in glee,
they fled away from the old Acad-
envy building Away to where the
fields and brooks were waiting
away to the merriment and happi-
ness of the summer vacation; some
away to the wide world, to carve
out their futures and their fortunes.
Yet as they left the campus no ex-
ultant shout or joyful cry broke
from their lips. All were silent.
Professor Thompson waited until
the last one had left the ground
then he closed the gate with a great
and ominous clang that shut them
out from all their past life together
forever. Schooldays were over!
