CASA, I've been in this room, I've
never been IL this house before; but
I've been in this roomw Ethel ex-
claimed
''Yes?" Asa inquired, unable 10
comprehend her.
1t was plain to her that this room
once had been part of a French
building. French of the sixteenth or
seventeenth century. Erhel's recog-
milton of this partly explained her i'm
preston of familiarity here; when she
was child at her aunt's chateau,
Aunt Cecilia had taken her on visits
to chateauX of many of Uncle Hill
aires friends. She might indeed have
been in this very room before. 1t was
hopeless for her to try to recall from
her memories of when she was five
and eight.
Her mind was not now dwelling
upon which might have been her own
association with this room. What

Where's he gone, Asa?" Ethel ap-

rushed into the salon because she
was there; but Lad only brushed
against her On his way to the
further end of the great room where
he thrust his, head dawn and smelled
of the floor, whimpering and scram-

Lass blundered about near him, so
excitedly that Ethel followed to sea

of bare, vanished floor. But her
interest stirred Lad to leap upon
her and dash to the door on the
south which communicated with the

outside steps down the Rock to the
summer landing.
When she looked through the glass
of this door, Ethel observed for the
first time that those steps showed
the depressions of deep footsteps.
The dogs jumped into the snow
ard floundered down the steps to the
ice where they shook themselves and
rolled over, barking. She was fear
fully expecting that Lad was leading
her to the sort of horror which she
had believed to be in the house when
she came upon chunks of ice stand
ing beside a hole, about a yard in
diameter, which had been chopped
through to the water. 81.
Young ice had frozen over, not yet
half an inch thick. She knelt and
leaned forward with her hands on
the edge of the hole, peering down
through the new, CLASSY crystal into
the dark, deep water underneath.
She felt footsteps on the floor of ice
and, looking about, she saw that Asa
after some delay had descended from
the Rock. He came to her side and
gazed into the hole.
Water hole" he said quietly,
"Bagley chop it here yesterday to
fill buckets. Bagley did not chop it
so big"

came yesterday and Bagley right
here and let him in"
The hall was wide and pleasant,
furnished with gay, bright wall pa
per picturing tall herons standing III
river reeds. There were pretty,
painted chairs in gray and gold,
matching table and a lounge which
had cushions of black silk embroid-
cred with gold herons. Underfoot
was a handsome, silky rug in the
blue and yellow designs of the Chi
nese weaver. 1t showed no wear
or soil; nothing showed use.
Ethel stood amazed at the beauty
and brightness; she found herself
thinking of a woman in connection
with this house on Resurrection
Rock-a woman of positive and good
tastes.
Draperies hung in wide doorway
opening into a big room at the front.
Bright, diffused light fell upon a
large, heavy, carved table near the
center of the room; upon chairs and
a couch on one side; upon a grand
piano at the east end with a tall
lamp and music cabinet nearby. In
the wall to Ethels left, which was
the interior wall, was a large and
beautiful fireplace with high, mar
BILE mantel.
The room showed no sign of dis
order or of violence done there; yet
,Igkt of the 1oom itself Amazingly
disturbed her. She did not know
why, at first; she merely felt fright
ened as by something uncanny.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1922-09-01

Eyes; that's it; why? Why, Asa?"
she cried, suddenly losing control of
herself. Why should any one want
that hole bigger?"
Nobody would" Rebdird assured

meant, first, agreement with Asa /;
then revolt at, and denial of, the
images in her own mind. The In
dian and she now understood the
same events alike; Asa, indeed, had
discovered more than she.
What kept you up there?" she
asked him.
He said he would show her; and
together they ascended the steps in
the Rock. He led her to the part of
the floor where the dogs had been
shifting,
Somebody washed right here, you
see. Somebody did it last night,
think; somebody scrubbed, But no
place else
Somebody burned cloth in fire
place" Asa informed, going to the
hearth and producing a handful of
ashes which exhibited the woven tex
ture of cloth; he produced also a
charred bit of shaped wood which
had been the back of a scrubbing
brush. Asa offered it to her and
she put out her hand to take it, and
then she could not touch it. Blood
had stained it before it had been
burnt; Kincheloe had put it in the
fire to burn away-blood
Asa had let go of it, thinking that
she was taking it, and it dropped
to the floor between them. 1t was to
make sure that such trifles as this
were completely burnt, she thought,
that Kincheloe wished to come t.
the Rock early this morning.
She could think these things: but
She could not say them.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1922-09-01

She told him about the mat of
blood in Lads hair.
Asa went out and examined the
dog.
Nothing there now," he reported
when he returned. Hair there all
cut off"
This brought her to the door to
witness for herself that, since her
discovery early that morning, some
one had clipped the hair close under
the dogs jaw. Who had done that?
Kincheloe? Or Miss Platt? Or-her
grandfather?
Somebody was killed here, Asa?"
What else to think?"
But who - Also, who?"
Who was here last night" Asa
returned logically.
She flinched He meant, of course,
her friend of yesterday, Barney Lou

WEDDING REPORT
NOT CORRECT

Last issue we published an an
nouncement of Buckley-Furniss
wedding, upon information written
out in good form and handed to us
by young folks, who, up to that time
commanded our esteem and conf
dence. ts4
After the paper was printed and
mailed we were informed that there
had been no such wedding and after
hunting up the students who handed
in the notice, and asking them their
reasons for taking such advantage
of us and the parties named in the
announcement, they expressed regret
and said it was school prank grow
ing out of some bantering, which
they should have known better than
to notice or act upon.
The tremor in the voice and the
cloud on the brow as this was said,
convinced us of the sincerity of their
regrets, and we charge it all up
to youthful mistake-for who is
there that has not done his or her
share and suffered the anxiety and
remorse that go with it. They acted
very white" about it, so we still
regard them with esteem and con-
fidence.

over 400 pounds, and 1,541 over 300
pounds. The majority Of the cows in
the association are grade, and their
large production is directly traceable
to the high-class purebred sires that
have been used By the members of the
association and to the raising Of heif.
ers from the good cows found by the
testing association work.
In 1909, 581 cows in this association
finished the years work with an aver
age production Of PSI pounds Of fat.
Last year, the report shows, the aver
age Of 4,014 cows was 1874 pounds, a
difference Of three pounds Of fat per
cow. Based on the number Of COWS
finishing last years work, this differ
ence meant total Of eca, 1872 pounds
Of fat, which, at the price Of 20 cents
per pound, the average paid Humboldt
county dairymen in 1920. amounts to
s2sS,213.

CARD OF THANKS

There is vacant chair at our
home and our hearts are very sad
over the loss of our boy, but thru
it all there is a vein of gratitude,
and much of the sting of our loss
has been taken away by the friends
and neighbors who SO kindly aided
us and took turns day and night at
the bedside while we yet hoped. We
wish to express our sincere thanks
to them all, and especially the doc
tors who tried so hard, the nurses,
tender and unflaging, and the tele-
phone operators responding to every
touch at the phonetic fight to
save our boy was intense and we
had all these good helpers and lost,
and our thanks to them are as pro-
fuse as our tears when we see the

TESTING INCREASES INCOME
California Association ls One Of Old
est to Continue In Successful
Operation.

prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
The Ferndale Contrasting associa-
ton in Humboldt county, California, is
the largest cow-testing association In
the United States. In the organiza-
ton 100 members, owning from 2 to
$50 cows, finished the work last year,
and the association tested 1916 cows,
according to a report compiled by the
western office of the dairy division,
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture.
Not only is this the largest cow-test-
ing association, but 1t Is one of the
oldest to continue in successful opera
ton. 1t was started IL years ago, and
now has successful breeder as it's
secretary and manager.
The history Of this association gives
ample evidence of the value of cow
testing associations in developing the
dairy industry. The report shows that
4,O14 cows finished the years work
with an average lactation period Of
nine and one-half months and with an
average butterfat production of 334.O3
pounds per COW. There are but few
associations, dairy specialists of the
department say, that equal this aver
age production, and none that can ap-
proach it in number of cows and
height of production.
Seventeen herds in the association
averaged from 400 to 495.76 pounds Of
butterfat per COW; 10 averaged from
$50 to 400 pounds; 38 averaged from
300 to $50 pounds; % averaged from
25O to 800 pounds, and averaged
from 213 to $50 pounds. It is inter-
esting to note that the six low herds
had been on test for the first time and
the owners had not had a chance to
Gull out and breed up their stock.
The high COW Of the association pro-
duced 72S05 pounds of fat; II cows in
the association produced over 900
pounds ofifat: 90 over 500 pounds; 62S
