it's acres, and acres of undulating cam

when the Spring wakes the yellow
jessamines that carpet the earth, run
riot through the trees, and Wreathe

old College could speak, what tale
of chivalry and valor and ambition and
achievement could they tell. This

France and Belgium. But here in a
land OF peace and plenty, at our very
door a noble creation of the archi-

been left by those to whom it was pre-
sented as a gracious gift, without pro-
lection or defense from the ravages of
the tramp, the scavenger, and the
thoughtless small boy. Who shall an

Lewis in his great book, main

Civic Association Endorses Stock Law

Because the civic association stands
for progress, at its last regular meet
ing it went on record as endorsing the
stock law. Members assisted in every
way possible to have the "No Fence
law carry. Mrs. C. H. Stumberg, the
president, attended meetings and was
untiring in her efforts, and did fine
work with good results in the final ac-
complishment of the desired end.
The law put into effect and the
change of conditions, the civic associa-
tion hopes, will not be an immediate
hardship to any one but will be of ul-
innate good to the entire parish. The

Home for Old Folks.

The civic association has had past
discussions of home for old people
and for some short time has taken it
up again. The object now is really to
try to get such a domicile and the
matter was put up to the Association
of City Clubs for consideration, and it
is not only the civic association be-
lieving this to be a great need but
other clubs that have looked into the
matter.

who were pround of this Old Pioneer
that mothered the classics and kept
the sacred torch Of education alight
until other institutions snatched it
from her, do not allow this historic
pile to fall into hideous and unsightly
decay. This is memorial Of the
old South, and it's traditions that
should ever be preserved. The history
of Centenary is comingled and inter-
woven as warp and wosf with the an
nails of Louisiana. In 1874 the Con.
stituti4nal Convention met on this site
but only held a session Of ten days
and adjourned to meet in New Or
leans, in 1845. During the Civil War
company Of soldiers was organized
from the student body of the school,
and most Of these gallant young lives
were laid down in behalf of the State
and the South they loved so we'll. In
the rear, under the spreading branches
of great beeches a Confederate grave
yard nestles. The College was used as
a hospital during the Civil War, and
the wounded soldiers who died were
laid away in this quiet and hallowed
spot, unknown and unsung now, save
by the mocking birds that trill their
rhapsodies from overhanging trees.
I live very near this grand old
structure and love to feast my eyes
daily upon its dignity and harmony Of
outline, it's wonderful time-stained
walls, and lofty Doric columns, its
primeval trees that rival the centre

R0CKLAND SCHOOL.

The Rockland school building is I'M
dergoing some needed repairs because
of the overcrowding conditions of the
9th, 7th and Sth grades and the high
school room and a much needed space
for the manual training department.
The second floor is to contain a
room 80 by 80 making it twice as large
as the former high school room. 1t
will have a seating capacity of 20 pu-
pills. The primary room will %
into the present high school room and
the manual training department will
take the present primary room. The
school will then be we'll arranged.
The basement containing four rooms
for the commercial, science, domestic
science and manual training depart
ments. The first floor for the grades
and the second for the high school
room. This will still leave a large
room an the north side to be finished
like the high school room.
The school is truly growing in
quantity and quality"

| closed the book, and stared with
unseelng eyes into the green shadows
OF the encompasslng woods. What
happened to the writer of the diary
on that last trip to the cave? For he
had never left the island. Crusoe was
here to prove 1t, as well as the wreck
of the Island Queen. And, in all hu-
man probability, under the sand which
choked the cabin of the derellct was
the long-sought chest of Spanish
doubloons.
But what was the mysterious fate
of Peter? Had he fallen overheard
from the sloop and been drowned?
Had he returned to the cave-and
was he there stillf 1t was all a mys-

CHAPTER XII.
1 Bring to LIGHT a Clue.

My first and all but overpowering
impulse was to possess myself of a
spade and dash for the wreck of the
Island Queen. Sober second thought
restrained me. To dig through the
damp, close-packed sand of the cabin
would be no trifing task, for should
be hampered by the need Of throwing
out the excavated sand behind me
through the narrow companionwaN
| could achieve my end, no doubt, by
patient %burrowing, but 1t would re-
qulre much more time than l had at
my command before the MONDAY
sounding OF Cookies gong. l must
not be seen departing or returning
with a spade, but make off with the
implement in a stealthy and burglari-
Gus manner. Above all, I must not
risk b~etraying my secret through i'm
patience.
But there was nothing to forbid an
immediate pilgrimage to the much
sought grave-stone with Its sinister
symbol. The account in Peters diary
of his adventure with the pig placed
the grave with such exactness that l
had no doubt of finding 1t easily.
That done, l would know very nearly
where to look for the cave-and in
order to bid defiance to a certain chill
sense of reluctance which beset me
at the thought Of the cave, l started
out at once, skirtlng the clearing with
much circumspection, for 1t seemed to
me that even the sight Of my vanish
ing back must shout of mystery to
Cookie droning hymns among his pots
and pans. Crusoe, of course, came
with me, happily unconscious of his
own strange relation to our quest.
Somewhere In the angle between the
ragged margin Of the cliffs and the
abrupt rise of the craggy m~ountainside
according to Peters journal, lay the
grave. I began Systematically to poke
with a stick l carried into every low
growing mass Of vines or bushes
Quite suddenly l found 1t. My prod
dlngs had displaced a matted mass Of
ground -creeper. Beneath, looking raw
and naked without its leafy covering

was the "curlously regular little patch
of ground, outlined at intervals with
small stones"
At the head of the grave lay a large,
smoothly rounded stone. l knelt and
brushed away some obstinate vine
tendrils, and the letters "B. H." re-
vealed themselves, cut deeply and ir-
regularly into the sloping face of the
stone. Below was the half-intelligt-
BILE symbol Of the crossed bones.
There was something In the utter
loneliness of the place that caught
my breath sharply. At once l had the
feeling of a marauder. Here slept the
guardian Of the treasure-and yet In
defiance Of him I mean to have It
So, too, had Peter-and 1 didn't know
yet what he had managed to do to
Peter.
With an impatient SILVER got up
quickly from my knees. l whistled to

on mysterious intelligence conveyed to
him by his nose. He ran to me joy
fully, and I stopped and patted his
warm vigorous body.
LET Bill walk, Crusoe," 1 remarked,
'let him He needn't be a dog In the
manger about the treasure, anyhow"
Now came the moment which l had
been trying not to think about. l had
to find the entrance to the cave, and
then go into 1t or part with my own
esteem forever. | went and peered
