CHAPTER

CHAPTER |
Fabien Ready to Become a Priest
1t was a glorious May morning
filled with great promise of happi
ness and loyel
The Chevalier Fabien Des
Grieux, Economically poetic
youth, talked quietly with some fell
low graduate students at the White
Horse Inn. at Amiens, while wait
ing for the Paris diligence to carry
them on to S. Sulpice to complete
their training for the priesthood.
Fabfen's parents belonged to one
OF the first families of Picardy and
he calamity reflected the fact that
he was a gentleman of the highest
type. He was great favorite with
his student associates and the in
habitants of the town. His life had
been SO well regulated and studi-
GUS that his masters had pointed
to him as a model of conduct for
other scholars Not that Fabien
made any sacrifices or efforts to
acquire this reputation, but a natur-
ally tranquil disposition and a love
for study had made him apply his
time to work and duty. He had an
Unborn dislike for vice that was ac.
, cepted as positive proof of virtue.
Fabien had earned his title, of
Chevalier, by being decorated with
the cross and when the Bishop of
the Diocese proposed that upon
graduation he enter the church.
Fabien accepted the honor as one
entirely to his liking.
Presently lay brother rode up
to the Inn and, leaving his mount
outside the gate, began searching
for Fabien among the people at the
little iron tables in the yard. He
was greatly relieved to learn from
one of the students that the youth
he sought was in the tavern. The
kindly old mans mission was i'm
portant and his face lighted up
The Carbon County news. [volume] (Red Lodge, Mont.) 1924-1931, 1927-12-22

with great sympathy and love
when he saw Fabien talking with
Jean Tiberge, a loyal friend and
fellow student-one need never
worry about the company that Fa-
oien found congenial!
My SON. said the lay brother,
taking a little medal from his belt
and quietly presenting it to Fabien,
Here is a medal for protection
against worldly evil-the Bishop
babe me give it to you before you
leave us to complete your train
Ing"
Fabien bowed in reverential
thanks over the lay brothers hand
as he accepted the holy token. A
diyinely spiritual expression spread
over his face. He could not re-
train from thinking how little he
needed such a charm. Worldly
pleasures and appetites could
never tempt him from his studies
and calling! And those who knew
him were just as sure of this as
Fabien himself.
"Ah! Fabien, | am delighted,
broke in Tiberge, putting his arm
about his friends shoulder. "You
have earned that reward in all
fairness. None of us can equal
your brilliance and unselfish de-
yotion."
Il deserve no credit have sim
ply found my calling and every.
thing else follows along naturally"
Perhaps that is true" agreed
Tiberge. ut is quite characteris-
tic that you take no credit for any
thing you do
A beautiful smile lighted up Fa-
bien's face as he heard his friend
compliment.
"You know, Tiberge, my greatest
regret at leaving here is that you
are not ready to depart at the same
time. 1t is difficult to leave a loyal
friend with whom one has grown
up. | shall never forget you, and
your thousand good qualities. We
shall meet again, later on when we
become"
The remainder of Fabien's SEN
tence was left unfinished when the
students in the courtyard loudly
announced that the diligence was
appearing down the road.
The soft green leaves danced
gracefully on their swaying branch
es and gently brushed against the
dusty diligence as it wound along
the narrow road through the sun
shine.

laid but we thought that it would
be some time before it would be
necded,' the president declared.
But Fl Centre has proved to our
satisfaction that it wants gas and
needs more than we can possibly
handle with our present facilities.
The machinery needed for the
second plant has already been pur-
chased and will be brought here

following to say:
"It was necessary that we change

no difficulty would have been ex-
ncrienced for we wonld merely
have shifted the responsibility over
