There was no gate between the
bankers pars-like orchard and the
parsonage yard. The fence had to be
climbed. When they reached II the
preacher offered his hand to the girl,
who. to the amazement Of the woods
man. took II and allowed him to lift
her down--a concession that meant
much In the Flatwoods.
At the bridge over Eagle run
merely a huge foot log broad-axed fiat
along the top-the girl allowed the
preacher to assist her again, and the
woodsman was treated to his second
surprise. He had seen her, hundreds
Of times. skip across that log as sure

The path beyond led past the big
maple with the rustic seat beneath the
shelter Of Its far-hung branches. At Its
roots a spring gushed up, tapping the
white pebbles of the tiny gutter II had
worn for itself on Its way to Eagle run.

back into the spring.
"Do you blieve in fairlesT She
asked the question as II she hoped he
did believe In them.
He glanced down at the reflected
face In the water. Yes; there's a
fairy peeplng into the spring right
now"
The old banker grunted; the woods
man turned to the face behind the
huge spectacles. II was the first thing
the preacher had said that caught his
interest.
The girl was so entirely an I'M
spoiled creature of the woods that she
let the preacher see how much the neat
compliment pleased her. With the
color tingllng over her face, she
sprang over the gnarled roots Of the
great maple and ran few steps up
the path to the edge Of the yard,
paused and then hurried on. The
preacher looked after her in his peer
ing way, while the woodsman strobe
up the path and overlook her at the
kitchen door.
"fll run over and do the chores, and
then come back" he said.
He walked on little way and then
came slowly back. The girl, just going
into the kitchen. seemed TO know that
he had turned-seemed TO know that
he would turn back. With her hand
on the door easement she waited for
him to speak.

came back TO the eyes. The inquisi-

MddiSOn'S Protest Personal.

In our issue of October 25th we
published an article under the
caption Officer of Society of
American Indians Interfering in
Chippewa Matters, which same
was an account of the action of
Mr.. William Madison, recently
elected Secretary and Treasurer of
the Society of American Indians,
in sending written protest to the
Secretary of the Interior against
the employment of Webster Bal
linger of Washington, d. c., as
attorney for the Minnesota Chip
pewas, and in which we stated
that we understood the protest was
signed by Madison as representing
himself as president of the Chicago
Indian Day Convention. Later
developments however bring to
light that this statement, in so far
as to Madison representing himself
as connected with the Chicago In
dian organization was an error on
our part, or rather on the part of
our informant, for, while Madison
did make such a protest against
the employment of Mr.. Ballinger
as attorney for the Chippewas it
was a personal protest and not
expressing the views of either the
Society of American Indians or
the Chicago Indian Day Conven-
ton.
