Actual Results

Hundreds of tourists from other
states have been attracted to the
Green Mountains since the develop
ment of the Long Trail began. The
average villager whose main knowledge
Of the mountains comes only from the
view he gets of them from his east
window or porch, is quite ignorant OF
the increasing number OF persons who
are invading our wildernesses. Figures
are naturally hard to compile, but
since mere money talks, it is interest
ing TO restate an item that appeared
in last weeks Register to the effect
that Henry Davis, a farmer in Lincoln,
took in $500 last year for meals ard
lodging for hiking parties in that sec
ton. Up at Plead Lodge, near Bread
Loaf, which is the first cabin built by
the local section of the Green Noun
tain Club, there have been several
hundred visitors from many distant
states during the past two seasons. Al
though the present season has hardly
begun, several big parties of mixers
from New York are booked to 90 over
the trail this month, according to word
received by Prof. P. c. Voter who is
a Middlebury representative on the
board of trustees of the state organi-
cation Of the Green Mountain Club.

CHAPTER xi.

Cherry had flat now in Red Creek Park It differed from an apart ment because it had no elevator, no janitor, no steam heat. These things were neither known nor needed in the crude mining town; the flat building itself was considered a rather ques- tionable innovation. It was a wooden building, three stories high, with bay windows. Cherry had watched this building going up, and had thought it everything desirable. She liked the clean kitchen, all fresh white wood work, tiles, and nickelplate, and she liked the big closets and the gas-log She had worried herself almost sick with fear that she would not get this wonderful place, and finally paid twenty-five dollars for the first months rent with faSt-beating heart She had the center floor.
 But after the excitement of moving in died away she hated the place. She had enough money to hire a maid

 Oh Sis, 1 do feel so deliciously lazy aid happy and rested and-and everything" ]" said Cherry, as she set tied herself at the porch table where service for one was spread.
 Cherry, you're prettier than ever !" AliX said, eyeing the white hands so busy with blue china, and the bright head dhppled with shade and sun shine coming through the green rose vine.

 "Oh, where's no place in the world like ittp Alix agreed, rubbing some dried mud from the back of her hand wi5h the trowel. If Martin contin- ues to migrate every little while, I wish yeu could have little house here. Then for part of the time, at least, we could be together"
 'The old house," Cherry said, dream fly.
 Well, why not?" Alix echoed, eager ly. It's in pretty bad sl.a-----11tf sl.a-y---. -..1l1f being eli1pty so long, but it would make darling home again! Would Martin object?'
 Cherry filled her coffee cup a sec ond time, gave Row an appreciative smile as he put a hot French loaf be- fore her, and said, indifferently:
 Martin has a constitutional objec- tion to whatever pleases me, and would find some objection to any plan that gave me pleasure!' Her tone was light, but there was bitter twitch to her lips as she spoke.
 "Oh, Cherry p Alix said, distressed.
 However, I'm not going to talk | about Martin p the younger sister de- creed, gaily. I'm too utterly and ab- happy!"
 There was a worried little cloud on Alix's forehead but it lighted stead lly as the happy morning wore on, and half an hour later, when she and l Cherry were sailing q frog on a shin I gle, on the busy little stream that l poured down the hill near the cabin, | both were laughing like children t again.

T spend the night before my marriage alone-in small coun- try house hidden in the woods-with my betrothed, and propose to buy my rousseau immediately after the cere- mony!"
 Her voice fell to dreamy note, and she watched the gulls, wheeling in the sunshine, with thoughtful, smiling eyes. The man glanced at her once or twice, in the silence that followed, With something like hesitation, or con- junction, in his look.
 Look, here, Alix-let's talk. I want to ask you something. There's never been anything-anything to tell you-or your father, if he was here" Peter said, flushed and a trife awk- ward. I'm not that kind of a man. But there has been that one thing that one woman

 No, she never did!"
 Alix looked back at the gulls.
 Oh, well, then" she said, indif- ferently.
 "Alix, would you like to know about her?' Peter said bravely. Her fame
 and everything?"
 "Oh, no, please, I'd much rather not!" she intercepted him hastily, and after pause she added, Our mar rage isn't the usual marriage, in that way. l mean I'm not jealous, and Pm not going to cry my eyes out because there was another woman-y-is another woman, who meant more to you, or might have!

 Three weeks later he remembered tiO AhOlHClt, dHu dShtu Ter aRulD. They were ia the valley house now, and bitter storm was whirling over the mountain. Peters little cabin rocked to the gale, but they were warm and comfortable beside the fire; the room was lamp-lighted scented by Alix's sweet single violets, white and purple, spilling themselves from a glass bowl and by Peters pipe, and by the good scent of green bay burn ing. The Joyces had had a happy day, had climbed the hills under lowering sky, had come home to dry .Gl yles and do cooking, for Row was q. ay, and had finally shared an cpl curean meal beside the fire.
 Peter was wrapped in deep content the companionship of this normal. pretty woman, her quick words and quick laugh, her music, her glancing, bright interest in anything and every thing, was the richest experience of his life. She had said that she would

change nothing in his home, but her clever white fingers had changed everything. There was order now, there was charming fussing and dust ing, there were flowers in bowls, and books set straight, and there was just the different little angle to piano and desk and chairs and tables that made the cabin a home at last. She wanted bricks for path; he had laughed at her fervent, Do give me whole car load of bricks for Christmas, Peter !' She wanted bulbs to pot. He had lazily suggested that they open the town house while carpenters and painters remade the cabin, but she had protested hotly, "Oh, do let's keep
 it just as it always was" Smiling, he

putting back the hinged cover. And moment later her hands, with the as- surance and ease of the adept, drifted into one of the songs of the old days. Do you remember the day we put the rose tree back, Peter?" she asked. "When Martin was almost a stran- ger? And do you remember the day we made biscuits, over by the ocean? 'I remember all the days" he an swered, deeply stirred.
 We didn't see all this, then," Alix unused, still playing softly. "Anne claiming everything for her husband, you and here talking of Dads death, and Cherry married" She sighed. "She's not happy?" he questioned quickly.
 She's not unhappy" she told him, with troubled smile. Its just one of those marriages that don't ever get anywhere, and don't ever stop" she added. Martin has faults, he's un- reasonable, and he makes enemies. But those aren't faults for which a woman can leave her husband. Oh, Peter," she added, laying a smooth, warm hand on his, and looking into his eyes with her honest eyes, don't go away again! Stay here in the valley for a week or two, and help me get everything worked out and thought out-rve been so much alonel"
 Dear old Alixl" he said, sitting down on the bellch beside her and putting his arm about her. She dropped her head on his shoulder, and so they sat, very still, for a long min ute.

1 now, and she had a succession of slat,

 her kitchen, but she found her freedom
 strangely flat.
 Now and then a play, straight from
 "a triumphant year on Broadway came to town for one night; then Martin took his wife, and they bowed to half the men and women in the
 house, lamenting as they streamed | out into the sharp night air that Red | Creek did not see more such produc- tions.
 The effect of these plays was to make Cherry long vaguely for the stage; she really did not enjoy them for themselves. But they helped her to visualize Eastern cities, lighted streets, restaurants full of lights and music, beautiful women fitly gowned, After one of these performances she would not leave her fiat for several days, but would sit dreaming over the thought of herself in the heroines role.
 One day she had a letter from Alix i; , 1t gave her aY heartache, she hardly knew WHy. She began to dream of her own home, of the warm, sweet little valley whose breezes were like wine, of Tamalpais wreathed in fog, and of the ridges where buttercups and pop pies powdered child's shoes with gold and silver dust. She began to hunger for home. Nothing that Red Creek conle@4s9ss lssz silooh her yearning for the remembered sweetness and beauty of the redwoods, and the great shade of the mountain. She wanted to spend whole summer with Alix.
 She was athirst for home, for old scenes and old friends and old emo- tions! She had only to hint to Alix to receive love letter containing q fervent invitation. So it was settled. With sort of feyerish breyity Cherry completed her arrangements; Martin was to use his own judgment in the matter of boarding or keeping the flat Some of their household goods were stored; Cherry told him that she would come down in September and manage all the details of settling afresh, but she knew that her secret hope was that she might never see Red Creek again.
 Alix met her sister at the ferry in San Francisco on a soft May morning. She was an oddly developed Alix, trim and tall, prettily gowned and yelled, laughing and crying with joy at seeing Cherry again. Peter, she explained between kisses, had had to go to Los Angeles three days ago, had been expected home last night, and was not even aware yet that Cherry was definitely arriving.
 "Of course he knew that you were coming, but not exactly when," Alix said, as she guided the newcomer along the familiar ferry place on to the big bay steamer for Mill Valley. Cherry drew back to exclaim, to mar vel, to exult, at all the well-remem- bered sights and sounds and smells.

THOUSANDS MOURN
AT GALBRAITH'S BIER
Legion Conducts Impressive
Services at Funeral of Its
Commander.
Is HONORED BY FRANCE
Brief Orations by Prominent
Men Praise His Service and
High Character.

CINCINNATI. June 11-Thousands of
persons this afternoon paid tribute to
the memory OF Col Frederick w. Cal
( braith national commander OF the
American Legion. who lost his life last
Thursday morning in an automobile
accident in indianapolis.
The funeral services were under the
auspices of the American Legion, and
long before they began, and while there
was a long procession of mourning men,
women and children passing the body
of Col Galbraith, which lay in state IN
the rotunda of the big building, the 4,O00
seats in the auditorium of Music Han
were taken.
The obsequies were marked by sim
plicity. Brief orations were delivered
by the Rev. John Herget, who was the
chaplain of the 147th Infantry, which
was commanded by Col. Galbraith In
France; the Rev. Frederick McMill'n
who also was an overseas chaplain !;
Theodore Roosevelt, Assistant Secretary
OF the Navy, who represented the Fed
erar Government former Representative
Victor Heintz OF Ohio, who was cap
tain under Galbraith Col frankila
d'Olier, former commander of the legion
and Marcel Kneeht, director OF the
French Information Service in the
United States, who was the official rep
resentative of the French Government
In his address Mr.. Roosevelt said
"In the great service movements that

this State, and this nation, has lost
one of it's most useful citizens. The
service man. because of his training
and discipline in the army, Is not
much given to expressing ms deepest
feelings, and, having KNOWN this great
character SO intimately, | am sure
that the greatest tribute we would
wish for would be to assure him that
even though he has gone his spirit Is
still carrying on.
Capt De Levergne, air attache of the
French Embassy, posthumou5ly con-
ferred upon Col Galbraith the Grand
Cross of the Legion of Honor by direc-
ton of the President of France. In
his brief address he referred to the
deceased as hero and a great citizen"
At the close of the military services
the Scottish Rite conducted its inn
nressive burial ceremonial The body
then was borne through the city streets
