~N the Christmas-tide train
which carried homeward
~ those st. James schoolboys
who resided in or near New York.
C1eland Junior sat chattering with
his comrades in a drawing room
car entirely devoted to the st.
James boys, and resounding with
the racket Of their interminable
gossip and laughter.
The last number of their school
paper had come out on the morning
Of their departure for Christmas
holidays at home; every boy had
copy and was trying to read 1t
aloud to hts neighbor; shrieks OF
mirth resounded, high, shrill argu-

proval or of protest
'Read this! Say did you get

respectfully.
"Out Of the papers, of course" re-
piled Cleland Junior. "AlI you have
to do is to read 'em, and you can
think it out the way it really looks"
The only master in the car, a
young Harvard graduate. got up
from his revolving chair and came
over to C1eland Junior.
The boy rose Immediately, stand

still wore after two years.

CHAPTER 7.

A average New York house on
~ a side street in winter is a
dark affair; daylight comes
reluctantly and late into the city;
the south side of street catches
the first winter sun rays when
there are any: the north side re-
mains shadowy and chilly.
Cleland Seniors old-fashioned
house stood on the north side of
Eightieth street; and on the last
morning of Cleland Juniors Christ
mas vacation, while the first bars
OF sunshine fell across the brown
stone facades on the opposite side
Of the street, the Clelands' break
fast room still remained dim. bathed
in the silvery gray dusk Of morn
ing.
Father and son had finished
breakfast, but Cleland Senior. whose
other names were John and Will
liam. had not yet lighted the cigar
which he held between thumb and
forefinger and contemplated In por-
tentous silence. Nor had he opened
the morning paper to read para
graphs Of interest to Cleland Junior,
comment upon them. and encourage
discussion, as was his wont when
his son happened to be home from
school.
The house was ono OF those
twenty-foot brown stone houses
architecturally featureless-which
was all there was to New York
architecture nifty years ago.
But John William Cleland's dead
wife had managed to make a gem OF
the interior, and the breakfast room
on the second floor front. once his
wife's bedroom, was charming with
it's lovely early American furniture
and silver, and its mellow, old-time
prints In color.
,Cleland Junior continued to look
rather soberly at the familiar pic
lures, now, as he sat in silence op-
posite his father, his heart Of a boy
oppressed by the approaching part
ing.
80 you think you'll make writing
q profession, JimT' repeated John
Cleland. not removing his eyes from
the cigar he was turning over and
over.
Yes, father
"All right. Then a general edu-
cation Is the thing, and Harvard the
place-unless you prefer another
untversty.
The fellows are going to Har-
vard-most Of them" said the boy.
"A boy usually desires to go
where his school friends go.
It's all right, Jim"
C1eland Juniors fresh, smooth
face of a school boy had been slow
~ growing moro and more solemn.
Sometimes ne looked at tho prints
on the wall; sometimes he glanced
across the table at his father, who
still sat absently turning over and
over the unlighted cigar between
his fingers. Tho approaching sep
aratlon was weighing on them both.
That. and the empty third chair by
tho bay window. inclined them to
caution In speech, lest memory
strike them suddenly. deep and un-
awares, and their voices betray
their mems hearts 70 each other-
which IL not an inclination between
men.

tarily from the empty chair to the
table, whore, as always. q third

and. as always, a fresh hower lay
beside tho service plate.

ENCOURAGEMENT
OIL INDUSTRY IN
BRAZIL LOOKED FOR
Government Experts Following
Return Of Geological Expedi-
ton Into Interior Report
Indications of Petroleum.
BY H. B. ROBERTSON

Omitted Press Stair Correspondent
f Rio de Janeiro, Jan. l0--Kapid de-
veiopment OF the petroleum industry in
Brazu was forecast by government ex-
perts today following return of a
geological expedition from an eXplor-
ing trip into the Interior.
The expedition was headed by DIR.
Horace Williams, an American, and
Euzebio Oliyira, geologist in the gov
ernments section of minerals. lndi-
cations of Oil were found, the expedi-
ton reported, although no extensive
tests We're made. In districts along
the east coast the expedition discov-
cred great veins of asphalt and OIL
bearing shale.
The Brazilian government does not
intend to enter the oil business, Olivira
said, but will follow the plan of the
United States geological survey in
furnishing free information, maps. ETC.,
for private companies which wish to
exploit the oil industry.
American capital will be welcomed,
1t was intimated.
Owing to shortage of funds the gov
ernment's explorations have been linn
tied, Olivira said, but the work will be
continued as rapidly as possible and
all information will be available to
foreign investors.
Our recent expedition into the states
of Bahia, Alagoas and Sergipe found
many traces Of OIL Olivira contin-
ued. with two drilling machines we
made several soundings. none to a
greater depth than 600 meters. While
we discovered no free oil, l am con-

impregnated with oil.
Some of this shale yielded as much

ORGANIZATION
Steps Taken at Caldwell Meet
ing to Perfect Branch Of Ma
tionaI Federation - Name
Temporary Officers.

Caldwell, Jan. 10.--What is consid. .
cred an Interesting move was inauc.
urated at a meeting held here FRIDAY
at which time temporary state or
ganization Of the National Federation
OF Farmers was perfected to conduct
a membership drive by counties, after
which q permanent branch of that
BODY Will be born. Organization will
first take Place by counties. Later
Boise.
OFFICERS NAMED.
The Temporary officers named are:
w. w. Bates, Wilder, president;
Thomas T. Tarr Wilder, vice-presi-
dent; H. G. Morris, Caldwell, secre-
tary and c. r. Peckham, Wilder,
treasurer. These officers also form
the executive board. 1t was decided to
proceed with organization work by
counties Immediately.
OBJECTS OUTLINED.
The essential and outstanding pur-
pose of the organization is to stabilize
the prices of farm products; to assist
In securing the enactment of legisla-
ton, protecting the farmers against
discrimination such as unjust freight
rates, shipment of mixed cars or I'M
due privileges in the shipment of GER
tain commodities for the purpose of
securing uniustifiable prices for the
same; to establish a reliable, depend
able agricultural policy, guaranteeing a
safe investment and stabilized values
in farm lands.
The organization stipulates that it
VIII not participate In politics as an
organization, but that its members will
strive for legislation beneficial to them
through all political parties. This
point was strongly emphasized by
President Bates in his opening address.
1t takes strong position against all
phases of class legislation and sets
forth it's purpose to guard against the
use of methods having a tendency to
cause bitterness among classes.
