CHAPTER vi.

Twice had the golden sun sunk in
a welter of splendid eolors behind
West hill. and twice had the warmth
of his rising scattered the mists from
the lakeside since the encounter in the
hut, and Polly Hopkins was making
ready for her daily. walk through the
Silent City,
II was her custom to 90 among the
squatters and give them courage, to
tell them that they lad az right to
their homes, to food, and warmth. How
her girls heat aehed for their dumb
misery Surely the squatters had suf-
fered in the past year Many a boy
had been taken from his home and
sent to France, and many mother
had crept about the settlement with
grief-worn face, waiting for news from
over the sea.
Pollyop understood what war meant.
The squatters were always at wari
Granny Hope had explained to her
that, whenever people fought and were
cruel TO one another, that was war.
Hadn't she warred but two nights ago
with Oscar Bennett?
She had not seen him since, and the
pain and humiliation he had dealt her
had been lightened by Granny Hopes
assurances that love was the leyeler
of hate. SO Polly, having quantities
of love ana sympathy to spare. sent II
broadcast over the hopeless ones In
the settlement and promptly put Os-
car Bennett's cruelty out of her mind.
She did not even remember sometimes
how much the milk Oscar had be-
grudgingly given her was missed In
the shack. To Offset that deprivation,
she was free from him and the ugly
Quarrels she had had to settle almost
daily between him and Evelyn.
This morning. while Daddy Hopkins
was In Ithaca. Pollyep started out
with her many loves for a walk. On
her shoulder perched Wee Jerry; at
her side, in stately dignity. staIked the
billy goat, and tied to one of her arms
