What Is The Girl Reserve Movement

The Girl Reserves is the NATIONAL
movement OF the Young Women'sI
Christian Association for girls. in
cities, towns. and the open country.
Any girl between twelve and eigh-
teen. whether in grade school, high
school, or business and industry. may
become a member. sharing in the
good times, hikes, camps, and service
to other girls in all the world, if she
pledges herself to accept the follow
ing slogan, purpose, and code:
Slogan;-"To face life squarely."
Purpose; ITO find and give the
best"
Code:-As a Girl Reserve l will be
Gracious in manner
Impartial in Judgment
Ready for service
Loyal to friends
Reaching toward the bestl
Earnest in purpose
Seeing the beautiful
Eager for knowledge
Reverent to God
Victorious over self
Ever dependable
Sincere at all times
The Girl Reserve summer program
is now in full operation. AS plans
are already being formulated for a
large swimming contest later in the
season, it is needless to state that
swinmlngs holds centre stage" The
Monday morning classes at Horn
Point for Girl Reserves and .Just
girls" are exceedingly popular. The
one club whose personnel is COM
posed exclusively of Eastport girls
has the unique distinction of having a
larger representation fer swimming
than all of the Annapolis Girl Re-
serve groups combined annapolis
girls. the burden of proof rests on
youD
The West Annapolis corps, which.
by the way. has set an enviable stand
ard for swimming, latterly spent a
most pleasant and profitable day pic
nicing at Clark Heights, the hospit-
able country home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Walter Clark.
The club girls at Galesyille recently
held most impressive initiation
service at the home of Mrs Elsey.
Eleven girls. having learned the Girl
Reserve slogan, purpose. and code.
dedicated themselves in body, mind,
and spirit. on the altar of Girl Re-
servedom.
4 happy occasion for the Girl Re-
serves of Tracey's Landing was an
all-day outing at Old Fair Haven.
Some OF the features Of the program
were instructions in swimming, the
| sashioning CT attractive paper hats, a
luscious dinner, ana a stimulating
talk by Miss Burch on -Myself''-one
Of the Girl Reserve triangles for
power. Miss Burch's remarks are well
summarized i'm
Think truly and thy words
Shall the worlds famine feed;
Speak truly and each word Of thine
Shall be a fruitful seed
Live truly and thy life
Shall be a. great and noble creed"

That night Harry and BIN stood By
the gate talking, after Mrs. Kelso had
gone into the house.
'Bim, I love you more than ever"
said the boy "Abe says you can get
a divorce. I have brought the papers
for you to sign. They will make you
free. I have done it for your sake.
You will be under no obligation. l
want you to be free to marry whom
you will l would be the happiest
man in, the world If you were to
choose me. I haven't the wealth OF
some of the city men. l can only
offer you my love-"
BE careful and, please, let so Of
my hand" she said. 'Tm not going
to say word of love to you. I am
not free yet. We couldn't marry Il
we wanted to. I wish you to be under
no sense of obligation to me. Many
things may happen in a year. I am
glad you are going to see more Of the
world before you settle down. 1t Will
help you to be sure to know yourself
a little better and to be sure Of what
you want to do" .5.5 .g "
II think that ! know myself fairly
WELL" he answered. "There are 80
many better men who want to marry

fear in me-" -"- 49,
"There are no better men," she an
swered. "When you get back we shan
see what comes Of our little romance.
Meanwhile I'm going to pray for you"
"And for you," he said as he fol-
lowed her into the house, where the
older people sat waiting for them.
Harry gave the papers to BIN to be
signed and attested and forwarded
to Mr.. Stuart in Springfield.
On their way to the hotel Samson
said to Harry:
"I don't believe BIN is going to be
carried away by any of these high
flyers. She's getting to be very
sensible person. Poor Jack has caught
the plague. He has invested in land.

"a beautiful boy. went upstairs and
saw him asleep in his cradle. Looks
like her. Hair as yellow as gold, light
complexion, blue eyes, handsome as
a picture"
That night, in the office of the City
hotel, they found Mr.. Lionel Davis In
the midst of group of excited specu-
lators. In some way he had got across
the prairies and was selling his land
and accepting every offer on the plea
that he was going into the grain busl-
ness In st. Louis and had to leave
Chicago next day. He choked the
market with bargains. The buyera
began to back off. Mr.. Davis closed
his carpet bag and left.
1T was a kind Of horse stealin,'
said Samson as they were going to
bed. HE got news down there on the
main road by pony express on Its way
to st. Louis. I'll bet there's been
panic in the East. He's awake ant
the others are still dreamin'."

dressed, handsome young man with a
diamond In his shirt-front was lead
ing horse back and forth in the
stable yard. The diamond led Samson
to suspect that he was the man Davis
Of whom Mrs. Brimstead had spoken.
Our travellers, not liking the look of
the place, got some oats and rode on,
camping near the farther edge OF the
woods, where they built fire, fed and
tethered their horses and sat down
and ate from the store in their saddle
bags.
Then with their knives Abe and
Samson cut big armfuls of grass from
the near prairie for the horses and a
bed upon which the three man lay
down for the night.
Samson had that gift Of sleeping
with one eye open" which the perils
Of the wilderness had conferred upon
the pioneer. He had lain down on
the side Of their bed near the horses,
which. were tethered to trees only a
few feet away. He had gone to sleep
with his pistol under his right hand.

door, but we'll live through It,
Then the young statesman proposed:
IF you are going with Harry. I'll go
along and see what they've done on
the Illinois and Michigan canal. Some
contractors who worked >on the Erie
canal will start from Chicago Monday
to look the ground over and bid on the
construction Of the southern end Of 1t.
I want to talk with them when they
come along down the line"
II guess few days in the saddle

cloyed on house air and oratory and

"Hold Up Your Hands," Samson
Shouted.

Late in the night he was awakened
by an unusual movement among the
horses. In the dim Light Of the fire
he could see a man in the act Of
bridling Abe's horse. ..... ...
"Hold up your hands," Samson
shouted as he coCered the man with
his pistol. IL ye stir foot I'll bore
a hole in ye."
The man threw up his hands and
stood still.
In half a moment Abe Lincoln and
Harry had got up and captured the
man and the loosed horse.
/ This is part Of the entry which
Samson made in, his diary a. week or
so later:
Harry put some wood on the fire
while Abe and I led him up into the
light. He was one of the dirty white
men we had seen at the tavern.
",Ill give you four hundred dollars
for a hoss in good Michigan money,
he said.
eff ye can't steal horse you're
willin' to buy one,' says.
"sNo, sir. only come to buy says
he.
II topped him sudden and asked
him why he was putting on the bride.
"He owned up then. Said a man
had hired him to steal the horse.
"That man has got to have boss,
he said. He'll give ye any price ye
want to ask. If youll give me a few
dollars I'll take We to him.

I'll talk to him. said.

Mr.. Lincoln had brought the papers

fields were sown. The new buyer was
coming to take possession in two
