" to accept a position with our
~ paper, 1t was all over between
US. After that we knew that she was
at least highly improbable II not en-
tIrely impossible. But then we might
have expected as much from girl who
called herself Maybelle. There Is.
how ever, this much to be said in May
bellies favor: she was persistent. She
did not let go till 1t Numbered! We
could have stood II well enough II she
had limited her campaign for job on
the paper to an occasional call at the
office. But she had fiendish instinct
which told her who were the friends
we liked most to oblige: the banker,
for instance, who carried our over
drafts, the leading advertiser, the
chairman Of the printing committee OF
the town councll-and she found ways
to make them, ask IL. we. couldn't do
something for Miss Bolton She could
teach. schools. indeed, she had place
In. the academy. But she loathed
school-teaching. She. had always felt

the people, in. our, own country town
and county, printed as many times a
day or. a, week or a month as they
could be put into type. We tried to
tell her that more important to US than
the Influence Of the Celtic element on
our national life and literature was
the fact that John Jones Of Lebo-
that Is to say, red John, as distln-
gulshed from black John--or Jones the
timer. or Jones of the Possum Holler
settlement was in town with load of
hay. "Other papers" we explained
carefully, while she looked as sympa-
thetic and Intelligent as collie, "other
papers might fbe interested In the
radio-aetivity Of uranium X; they
might care to print articles on the
psychological phenomena of mobs"-
to which she snapped eager agreement
with her .eyes-"others, with entire
propriety, might be Interested In inor-
sanic !. evolution''-apd she cheeped
"'yes,.. yes. with. ,feyerish. intensity
