ity all at once now she knew herself 10 be alone. She wished he had not left her: she felt almost inclined to call out to him, but bit her lip to check the desire.
 His steps had quite died away now, and there was d momentary silence, followed by the hollow banging of a distant door.
 Mary started violently; she took a step forward, then stopped.
 How absurd to be nervous. He would be back in a moment! Of course. he had not left her for more than a moment. But she counted each second by her racing heart beats.
 The patch of moonlight coming through the archway leading to the long music-room seemed to fill the whole place with shadows. She re- membered that David had said it was here that the ghost lady walked. Her tongue felt dry in her mouth.

 You have to wish when your feet touch new ground" he said. shut your eyes. and wish for the thing you want most in all the world"
 CHAPTER sNNNNII
 For Happiness
 Mary obeyed unquestionably: she shu, her eyes tightly and wondered what she ought to wish.
 For love? But that had already passed her by, For riches? It was so unlikely that she would ever have them, For what, then. could she wish" Happiness? It almost seemed as if someone put the thought into her head as she stood there by David Bretherton's side. with the moonlight barring the polished floor at their feet.
 She gave little sigh.
 "T wish for happiness, then" she said.
 Bret herton laughed.
 You ought not 10 have told me;

you must never speak your wish to anybody" He pushed open the door, and then entered.
 There was a faint. musty smell of disussd rooms; a sort Of chilly damp ness made Mary shiser as she fol- lowed David into the darkness. They had entered sort of wide corridor. at one end of which the tall. painted pipes of an organ rose to the very ceiling.
 This used to be the old music gallery" Bretherton said; and 1t is chiefly here. too, that the ghost lady l is supposed 10 walk"
 "oh," said Mary softly. She looked round her with wide eyes. There was something depressing to her in the darkness and silence; she began to think of the men and women i dead long since--who had walked the oaken floors and made the old place echo with the sound of their voices.
 It seemed strange that none of them would ever come there again; strange, too, to think that some day she and David would be dead, even as they. and others would be taking their place in the world, and perhaps standing where they stood now. She fancied that she could e,Wn | see phantom figure in the organ scat: hear the soft pure strains of music issuing from those painted pipes.
 "Doesnt--doesn' anyone ever use it now?" she asked. Unconsciously she spoke in q whisper; David shook his head.
 "1t hasn't been touched for years. There are other rooms further en. Shall we go?"'
 His steps echoed hollowly as he led the way; there was so little furniture and no curtains at all at the high windows.
 Here and there the outline of an old high-back chair stood out Of a corner: or the gIiost-shape Of a fold cd card table. with quaintly clubbed feet and slender legs.
 "Tf this were my house." said Mary suddenly. q should live in this part of it--it's much more beautiful than the other wing. II only wants the windows open. and big fires. and" She broke of, conscious of his eyes bent upor her. 'I ought not 10 have said that" she added, in con- fusion.

 He walked away without waiting for her to speak.
 Mary stood there in the darkness listening 10 the sound of his footsteps. She was conscious or sort Of timid-

 The program will include a prize good chopping contest between teams of forcsters and farmers; woodlot thinning demonstration under charge of the State Forester will demonstrate i forestry methods in wood cutting. In this demonstration a piece of wood containing many inferior trees which are useless and are interfering with the growth of the good trees will be marked by blazing the trees to be cut. 4 corps of axemen will then cut them. showing the results immediately. A demonstration of forest fire fighting equipment will also be given by the State Forest Fire Warden and his as sistants.

Spudding In in Eight Feet
of Water Near Callahan,
Coyle-Concord Oil Com
pany Gets First River Bed
Well in South Texas.

The Coyle-C Concord Oil Company
has completed South Texas first river
bed well. 1t is located on state land
in the Frio river near Callahan. The
well was completed Wednesday for
100 barrels of oil daily, it is reported
by Capt. A. ]. Coyle, president of the
company.
Making a location in the Frio river
bed near the Glass lands on q ren-
mile tract, says Captain Coyle, the
COyle-COncord Oil Company spudded
in a we'll in eight feet of water.
A well drilled in eight feet of
running water quite a curiosity. and
somthing that is rare in the oil fields
of Texas. The foundation for the
derrick had to be made by driving
in a number of piles with a pile
driver erected on barge anchored in
the middle of the river.
Turned Into Pipe Line.
Then the derrick was erected. A
tool house was put up on an extern
sion of the series of piles. The struc-
lures make an interesting picture
standing there in the middle of the
river, resembling the super-structure
Of some vessel that had foundt-ed. The
power plant and the boiler, however.
are erected on the southern BANK of
the Frio river, just opposite the Coyle-
Concord well, the No. 1 State of
Texas. The power is carried to the
rig by pipe line for the steam.
Elliott Jones and Company are to
handle the output of this well, and
the oil is to be delivered through
the Live Oak county pipe lines. With
the well delivering approximately 100
barrels Of oil daily there is a pos.
sibility that it will do much better on
the pump, according to Captain Coyle.
Well Is 723 Feet Deep.
The No. 1 State of Texas is drilled
in the middle of the river, the derrick
and tool house being erected on piles,
as the water is little over eight feet
deep at this point. The well blew in
at 723 feet below the bed of the river.
Monday the well was drilled and early
Wednesday without having to be
bailed, it blew in.

FREE EMPLOYMENT .
BUREAU PLANNED BY
LABOR DEPARTMENT
Will Direct Surplus Labor
to Farmers Needing
Help.

This year the State Department of
Labor will establish q free employ
ment bureau similar to the one op-
Grated last year, except that the new
one is to be on a much larger and
more comprehensive scale, according to
Joseph s. Meyers, state labor commits
sioner.
The gratifying results obtained by
the free employment offices establish
ed in San Antonio, Laredo and Ell
Paso, have had much to do with the
reorganization of these offices. These
offices were placed for the purpose of
supplying information to the large
number of farm laborers at these cities
and directing them to other parts of
the state where acute shortages of
labor-especially farm labor-existed.
Offices were also maintained at Waco,
Dallas and Fort Worth to act as dis
tribution centers for this surplus
labor.
During a recent visit to the Pan
handle section of the state, the labor
commissioner held conferences with
the officials of the Panhandle Wheat
Growers Association. In these con-
ferences plans were discussed for sup
plying the demand for extra labor for
the wheat harvests in that section,
which usually opens about the middle
of June. The tentative plans agreed
upon were that the officials of the
Labor Department were to begin i'm
mediately to collect all the Informal
ton possible that would be of aid to
laborers seeking employment, or to
farmers who needed extra help for the
work of harvesting their crops. When
the harvest season opens the depart
ment will have available information
which will enable it to quickly and
economically supply the labor needs
