Heck dragged Ball to the Littleford

downward, on the sand. MOreland half
carried, half dragged Bill Dale to the

CHAPTER ~


Dale awOke a little after daybreak,
arose and dressed himself, and went
out by way Of the door beside the
huge stOne-and-clay chimney.
The mountain air was bracing. Dale
threw out his chest and started eager
ly for a walk. .
The road led past the cabin of
Grandpap Moreland. When Dale was
directly in front of the log house, he
saw the aged mountaineer standing on
a rickety sawhOrse beside the stone
step at the narrow porch; Grandpap
Moreland was helping a gray cat down
from the roof.
"Mornin'! I was jest a.takin' that
tn-r cussared old pest down often the
roof. I've took him down every morn
in as regular as I make fires, To- three
year or more. Ell 1t wasn't bad luck
to kill a cat, T. shoot him, mebbe."
After breakfasting with John More
land, Bill Dale borrowed Hshing-tackle
from his host, and set out alone for
the little river.
There were many shoals and rapids,
and he went almost half q mile before
he found a place to his liking. 1t was
a beautiful spot. Above, the water
poured between two great boulders
with a gentle roar; below, it Swallowed
out over round stones. Overhead
lowered tall white sycamores.
Not until he had put a minnow on
the hook and cast it out did he see
that he was not alone at the pool. On
the other side, less than sixty feet
away, Babe Littleford sat on a stone
the size of a small barrel she held
a cane fshing-rod in her hands, and
her bare feet were in the water to her
ankles. She was looking s~quarely to-
ward Dale, and there was something

lists of the United States Department
Of Agriculture. Less than One-tenth
Of the farms in Kansas are using pure

with results showing the number of
farms using purebred sires ranged
from S.3 to 11.6 per cent. Many COM
munities and townships reported no
purebred sires in use.
In one county surveyed there were
two townships in which not a single

blindly, at the hateful face. He kept

Good morning!" called Dale, lifting
his hat.
There a no reply. There was not
even a change Of cO%untenance. Again
Dale called his friendly greeting, and
again there was no reply. 1t piQued
Dale.
A few yards down the stream the
white body of a sycamore lay from
one bank to the other; 1t had been
piOwn there by a recent storm. Dale
wound his line, went down and crossed
by means Of the PROSTATE tree.
She didn't even look around when
he walked up to her and spoke again.
1t struck him as being decidedly odd.
II say he told her, you're as
chatty as a set of stencils. You
mustn't talk so much, y'know."
Her eyes smiled at the river, but
Dale couldn't see her eyes.
do you like %violets, Miss Little
ford?" he asked next.
In the black, mica-starred soil at
his feet grew a carpet of the finest
viOlets he had ever seen. Babe let the
tip of her cane rod fall into the water
and looked around.
ut sounds funny to hear a man ak

clared. Most O men don't think o

II beg pardon" he said cOntritely !;
didn't know you were especially ex-
pecting me. 1 had business" he added,
with John Moreland."
There came to his ears from some
where down the river the chorus OF
a rakish old hill song, and the voice
was that of the lanky moonshiner, BY
Heck
"Oh, when I die, don't-a bury me deep,
Put no tombstone at my head and feet,
Put a bears jawbone In my right hand
On my way to the Promised La-a-and,
Oh! On my way to the
Land"
A few minutes later there appeared
on the MOreland side of the river the
singer of the rakish old song; he had
a minnOw pail In one hand and a white
hickory rod in the other.
"Hi. thar, Bill, old bOy!" he yelled.
Hi, thar, Babe! Either Of ye'uns
ketched a%nything?"
Ben LittlefOrd's daughter held up a
fish proudly. Heck slapped his thigh
with his SLOUGH hat.
Good fO' you!" he exclaimed. But
they amt a-bitin' jest right. The
moons wrong, and the signs is wrong,

At that instant John MOreland ap-
peared at Heck's side. He seemed very
serious about something.
"Bill Dale" he called, "cOme owe
here"
Wondering, Dale put down his rod
and turned to obey. Two minutes later
he stood before John Moreland.
II jest wanted to tell ye," and the
mountaineer almost closed one alert

Moreland's bedtime prayer was very
simple, and very earnest, and it had
in it o Of thanksgiving than of
supplicatiOn~ And q part Of it certain
ly was uncommon
"Bless the stranger with us here to-
night, and all O. u kinfolks. and all
O. our friends, and our inimies, the

Aymen!"
Dale was deeply impressed. He
heard Mrs. M0reland diIVly when she
told him to let her know-She would
hear him if he called-if there wasn't
enough cover for his bed. Then he
found himself alone with the stalwart
chief of the Morelands.
He stepped forward and put his
hand on the mountaineer's shoulder.
How a man can go down on his
knees and pray for his enemies"
smiled Dale, lis entirely beyond me.
Do you really mean It'll"

ly. "1n a-dOin' that" he went on, IL

should feel that vague responsibility

notice 1t. Dale let his hand fall from

to speak again:

to educate us all, the benighted. Yes,

Dale removed his shoes and outer,
clothing, blew out the light, and went
to bed In the best rooms hand-carved
black walnut fOurposter.
For a long time he lay there awake,
and stared through a little window to-
ward a bright star that burned like a
beacon fire about the pine-fringed
crest Of David Moreland's mountain.
He believed he understood now why
his father had turned a greenish gray
when this coal property was mentioned
to him. He believed he understood
why his father had fatty refused to
investigate this vein. But he was
wholly at a loss to account for the
use Of his OWL given name instead Of
Dale.
Looking toward the mountain again,
he spoke as though he were talking
to David Moreland himself:

turned smilingly.

Not used to hard fighting! Dale's
smile hroadened. Once ne had whipped
a heavyweight pugilist; and he had
fought as a matter Of principle, and
not for money or prestige.
Moreland suddenly jerked one thumb
toward the other side Of the stream.
Dale looked and saw, standing beside
