MacAIpine or MacAIpin. This
means son of Alpin. a first name one
time used frequently in Scotland.
Alpin is one of the first names like
Elfrida and other names beginning
in Aelf that signify elf. 1t is said that
elf is derived from a source meaning
white, because these fairy creatures
were supposed to be radiantly white.
This same root meaning white, gave
the snow-capped Alps their name, so
there is. after all. some connection
between McAlpin and Alpine as used
today. though il is in a roundabout
way that we find the connection.
PinkertOn. This is an English sur
name sometimes said TO be a cor
ruption of the place name Punchar-
don, which, in turn. is said to have
been derived from the French words
"pont chardon," meaning bridge and
thistle or spike.

MONO SUPERVISORS
APPROVE new ROAD

The Board of Supervisors of Mono
county went to Antelope valley on
Tuesday and viewed the much dis
cussed road built around Topaz lake
by the Walker River Irrigation Com
pany in lieu of the old road, now sub
merged, says the Bridgeport Chronicle.
The Board looked over the road
from every angle and it was unani-
mously stated by the members that
it was their belief that the new road
was a better grade than the old one.
They also stated that there was but
one place on the entire portion that
two cars could not pass not always
with wide clearance but that they
.ould manage to pass without danger.
There were a few places that they
insisted upon putting iii little better
condition and in order that the ex-
oense of his work might not work

sTUNG BY A RATHER

Earl Foltz. the four-year old son
OF Mr. and Mrs Foltz of SchurZ. was
stung on finger by a rattlesnakc at
Walker lake last Sunday. The family
had gone to the lake for days fishing
and Mr.. Foltz, who was wading in the
lake, hooked bass and threw it to
the shore, and little Earl ran to pick
it up. when he was struck by a snake
that was coiled under a rock. As soon
as Mrs. Foltz realized what had hap
pened she ctat the finger with knife
until it bled freely, tied bandages
around the arm to retard the circula-
ton and hurried the boy to Schurz.
where the reservation doctor dressed
the wound. The lad was then brought
to Yerington and placed under the care
of DR.. Leavitt The chiid's arm was
badly swollen nearly to the shoulder,
but the doctor says he will recover.
There can be no doubt that the
boys life was saved by the presence of
mind and prompt and herioc action Of
Mrs. Foltz.

course there are very extenuating cir
cumstances at times. But l think
most of them could be avoided IL
people talked openly and candidly be-
fore they were married"
He told her then that he cared for
children, that they would mean q
great deal TO him.
She felt herself growing more and
more tense. The whole OF her ached
for him. Yes, she had waited all her
life for him, never mIstaking In any
of the others, the substitute for the
real.
II feel as you do" she said softly,
II love childreni"
And she spoke the truth. But yet
truth that was only half truth.
They were married. In the little viii
lage church on Christmas Eve and
when later the carols pealed forth they
felt as though even the carols were
for their happiness alone:
They had been married several
years Closer and closer had they
grown together. How glad she was
she had waited until she was sure
she loved. she had had so many pro-
posals, and there were girls who had
had 80 few. She had often thought Of
the girl to whom the simplest Of
pleasures had come as a complete and
magnificent JOY. This girl had had no
attentions, her life had been almost
manless. At last came man into her
life. very slowly, very internationally,
but each slow step along the way was
one which thrilled her and which
mounted up to huge and great propor-
lions. II had to be q great deal to
rouse Marjorie but Gregory had
reused her--fully.
She had always kept her fresh
charm and her appeal though she had
left youth behind. Her skin was
smooth, her color good, her eyes
dark and lustrous and her hair had
no traces Of gray.
But during this time no children had
come to them. Gregory now didn't
seem to care whether they came or
not. He was quite content with her.
"People change their ideas after
they marry II they really love the
woman they marry" he used to tell
her. "Before they have theories. Now
If children came. all well and good.
But I couldn't be any happier than ]
am now"
She knew he spoke the truth. She
knew It. He was even jealous OF her
eagerness for children. Was this
what It meant to marry, he some
times asked himself. Did people for.

lose you. And I couldn't lose yen.
Don't you see II was because loved
you 30 that lied TO your she cried
Il loved you So" she repeated.
MY darling. I'm 80 relieved" he
said. "All / care about Is that you
love me-"
81 know that" she told him. But
the heritage of my life has been
furnishing me. Even though ! know
you don't think now that children
make any difference know | cheated
you, whom Of all others cared most
for"
Marjorie, Marjorie dear" he
earessed her, II am so relieved that l
know now what has been worrying
you. was afraid you had ceased TO
love me-"
at was never that. II was never
that" she said
"You see, Marjorie" he went on.
.if at first you had told me you were
to have a child I would have been de-
lIghted-it would have seemed the
conventional idea of the completion
of married life which I had pictured
In my mind. Afterward realized that
the most important of all was that
I had you and loved you and that you
loved me.
Lately I've become very Jealous
OF your desire for children because !
though i didn't count so much. How
dreadfully we've CROPPED In the dark
even though we have been SO close
together"
She was happy then as she hadn't
been before, happy In the love that
he now gave her, the love for which
she had braved lie.
Ana even as he held her close she
thought OF it--and life--so full Of per-
picking moral issues. Had she not
lied to him would she have fulfilled
