-4'WHEN WINTER COMES
CAN SPRING BE FAR BEHIND

Spring is here Signs of it are
everywhere. Boys playing marbles,
going hiking, and participating in var
ious outdoor sports. But probably the
most noticeable sign of all is the at
tithde of the students in the high
school. They all become infected by a
certain germ. No one seems to be able
to resist this germ. But it is not very
serious. It is only the spring fever.
germ. Spring fever! When the snow
is melting, and mul abounds on the
roads, then boys and girls, too, look
1ongingly out of high schools win
dows. They become sleepy and almost
.doze off during the study periods. In
class they are restless and spend
much of their time looking at the
clock. But this condition will pass over
in two or three weeks.

ward King Louis, whose identity was
concealed behind his mask.
Fabien scrutinized the lower part of
the Kings face and his figure with
out any show of recognition, then he
CHANGED to see that he was wearing a
ring with the royal seal.
my DEAR" Fabien said quietly to
Manon, "it is the King who COM
mands your presence. You must go,
his will is irrevocab.e.n
won't you come with me, then ,"
Manon was like a child who dreaded
going on disagreeable errand alone.
II have not been invited, darling
Fabien smiled. Here is your escort"
With Fabien's sanction Manon ac-
cepted the Due de Richelieu's arm and
they approached the King.
Fabien pretended interest in his
companions conversation, but out of
the corner of his eye he did not lose
one point in the little scene between
his beloved Manon and the King. For
the first time in his life Fabien ex-
perienced the pangs of jealousy.
The Comte made an embarrassed
retreat so he would not be forced to
meet Manon-he wanted to postpone
that pleasure until his plans for re-
venge were better formulated
When Manon found herself alone in
King Louis presence she inclined her
head with unconscious charm and hui
mility as she said family, "Your Ma
jesty!" It was the first time she had
ever been in the presence of royalty
and her manner showed that she was
pleased as we'll as bit thrilled.
The King was delighted. He saw
that she was about to make a sweep
ing courtesy and grasped her arm.
mot that do not wish to be recog-
nized." He looked at her intently. "But
| seem to recognize you'll wonder
where-Mon Dieu | know" King
Louis continued gazing at Manon with
growing admiration.
"You remember seeing me before,
your Maiesty?" Manon questioned,
her pretty brow all wrinkled I'D in
an effort to think.
"Most assured!y I do laughed the
King delightedly, "and it is flatter-
ing to you that should"
"Of course, Your Majesty! But you
must mistake me for someone else
| am sure | would remember if"
"If we had talked, yes interrupted
the King No, I am not mistaken,
no one else in the world has face
like yours"
ooh, Your Maiestyw Manon was
overwhelmed. She succeeded in max
ing courtesy before the King could
shop her. ut must have been in an
other world that we met then" Ma
mons eyes twinkled.
"True! You were in the land of
love, but | was just on the streets Of
Paris" said the King reminiscently.
Manon was so perplexed that she
could not think of anything to say.
81 seem to have been wrong" con-
tinued the King. "Instead of breaking
as prophesied, your bubble of love
Louis was enjoying himself to the ut
most and Manon's childish and charm
has assumed amazing proportions

ing perp exity only added zest to the
occasion.
Your Majesty, please tell me what
you mean. | do not seem to UNDER
stand at ALL"
The tickle King suddenly decided
that curiosity was a beautiful trait in
a woman-he had always hated it be-
lfore
Il will tel you-it is pretty
story!" The King did not take his IL
centious eyes from Manon's lovely
face as he continued. at was Just at
dusk one rainy evening a little over
a year ago. l was in my coach driving
along the Boulevard when my pro-
gress was halted by young girl and
her equally youthful escort, who un-
consciously held up the royal process
sion while they crossed the street,
hand in hand, aware only of the love
they saw in each others eyes. NV
guards wanted to throw them in pri-
son for what they termed disrespect
to me, but it was my whim to permit
the young lovers to continue on their
short path of happiness unmolested.
Now do you understand" He bent
closer to Manon and smiled into her
face.
at is sweet story, but I do not
see where L"
You were the young girl inter-
rupted the King, then waited to see
what effect the announcement would
have on Manon.
oh" she exclaimed in mortifica-
ton. "What dreadful thing for us
ito have done!"
mo, it was beautiful amused
me then and pleases me even more
now that | have seen you in differ
ent light. At what roadside inn did
you leave the young MANI" The
question was filled with implications
that Manon did not understand.
Leave him, Your Majesty?" she
inquired in surprise. II would not
leave him for the world-here he is
noW.' Manon smiled happily as she
saw Fabien approaching them with
the Due de Richelieu.
The presentation of the Chevalier
Des Grieux to his King was an odd af-
TAR The fact that the King insisted
upon his identity being kept from the
people in general forced the Due to
introduce them in pantomime, omit
ting names. He had previously ex-
planned to Fabien that certain mask
ed gentleman-Fa bien understood who.
he was-desired to engage in a game
OF cards With him. For two reasons
Fablen eagerly accepted the challenge.
First, it would put an end to the
Kings long and animated converse
ton with Manon. Second, it would
give him chance to match his skill
against man who was reputed to be
worthy opponent.
The fact that the best card player
in Paris turned out to be Manon's es-
cort supplied an additional interest
for the King. To play a man for the
sake of matching card wits was divert
ing, but to play man for his lady
was the essence of high sport and
made game worth the power of con-
centration.

$50 you think you can copy the
pretty ways of Manon-don't, it
makes you ridiculous" said the man to
Mana.
"You old blockhead," she snapped
back, "Manon has the best technique
in Paris. See how it works with Fa-
bien-he simply loads her with dia-
monds." Mana was dressed in the best
possible imitation she coud manage,
to make herself look like Manon; she
also assumed an innocent air and
amused everyone by adopting a de-
mure, sweet tone of voice.
81 see that he loads her with Jewels
and she looks beautiful in them
but Mana, if | had the Chevalier's
genius for cards could buy the crown
jewels"
The King was amused at hearing
this reference to the royal jewel box
However, his interest in the gossip
waned and he impatiently awaited
the arrival of Manon. He did not even
answer when the Comte spoke-he
was devising a plan that would make
Manon his, just as surely as he was
the King of France. 1t was a cruel
ruse he had in mind

able mention. That time old saying,
"All is fair in love and war;" will
ever be used as an excuse for many
digressions, and King Louis XIV did
not prove an exception to the rule.
Fabien and Manon were the center
of an eager group, who greeted them
as soon as they came down the stairs.
lie was as greatly admired by the
women as she was by the men.
On that particular night Fabien was
attired in lustrous white satin His
coat buttons, buckles and fob were
Respondent with diamonds. 1t was per-
haps significant that the exquisite
lace on his cuffs was a little fuller
and longer than usual. Contact with
the word plus his recent prosperity
gave him an air of assurance that

pied with his natural gentlemanly
manner and courteous attentiveness
to Manon made him a paragon Of all
that was expected of man-at least
from the feminine viewpoint.
The Due de Richeleu intruded on
the little group nd said, II have been
ordered to present you to a certain
gentleman.
Manon looked at him in surprise
and ignored his extended arm. Tn
deedl' she replied proudly But that
does not mean that l will accompany
you"
Upon hearing Manon speak so feel
ingly Fabien turned from his COM
panions and looked at the Due with
narrowing eyes that glittered like
steel.

with an apo.ogetic shrug.
"Who dares to command Manon?"

 A couple of days after the final re- turns were in, the manager, in all. his pulchritude and puissance, came into the composing room, wearing a smile as big as gash in Texas water melon-

road" Populists, and when they had finished milling round, the stand patters so called-had launched a full ticket. Clouds of defeat began to gather. What was at first regarded as joke began to take form.
 Could we see it then? We could not.
 And thus things drifted-eyery day bringing some surprise.
 One day when the election was only. about two weeks off the manager rreezed into the composing room. After giving the gang, the once-over with wicked eye, he almost yelled:
 T hear there's a guy here who thinks Bryan will win!'
 Most of the operators dropped their jaws down a little: farther and pro- ceeded to tickle the .keyhoards little faster.
 Not I, however. If there was, going ito be a sacrifice, it might just as we'll begin here. As 1 rose. l made a men, ltal calculation. of howSsmuch, money I. had coming and where I would go. 'I firmly believe that Billy Bryan will make his opponent look like weak also ran,'" | declared.
 "Betcha a hundred to twenty-five you're wrong." snapped the manager.
 You're on!" Icried back. at. him. : Vel, I didn't get "canned" that. day, but received many scongratula-. tions for making such good bet. A few days later the..s big boss blowed. in again. . "Betcha twenty five bucks even your man. doesn't carry this state,,'. said he..
 I took him up in hurry for fear that he might change his mind..
 A couple of days before election in he came. again.
 ''Betcha fifty more berries you won't even elect a governor"
 This looked like a .-veritable cinch,. and I thought the "old man. must be ''lickered up.' Anyway. I took him on. Two or three smaller bets fol-. lowed-and then came the. election. ,. The result hung in doubt for three days, with our crowd in the. lead until the final returns were in. On the sec. ond day after. election, the skipper, burst into the composing room and fairly shouted:..
 "Betcha twenty-five bucks you lose every bet!"
 This looked like.stealng5 his money, and was sure he. had been trying to- determine what. Sunnybropk was, made for and it had made him reck-i less. My "roll" was now down to a. whisper, but put up an order on my current weeks salary to. ,cover- his, money.

fellows would sit round evenings when not attending a rally of the faithfu Land whittle and discuss, and occasionally cuss, the opposition and wonder why our 'boy orator" had not been discovered before.
 (Ever try whiting when your mind is sort of agitated? It's not so thrilling as violating the eighteenth amendment, but a lot cheaper.)
 Anyhow. by the time the campaign was fairly well under way, we eouid tell all about the single gold standard, the full dinner pail" and knew more about sixteen to one and. fiat money than Old Man Fiat himself.
 We likewise knew a lot of things the wise guys running the campaign had overlooked. so we thought. It soon became common gossip that if one worked for an. outfit. the head of, which was Republican,, it behooved the employees to- talk and act like the management or they would be outside lookin' in.
 The "big noise" in our plant was a .1<sular Republican--one of the old time 'honest-to-goodness," blown in-the- bottle" variety, and when the "old man. showed in the composing room, which was frequent, any discus sion of a political nature suddenly be- came Republican or ended entirely. which latter usually was the case. ; I, however, was tnones too. discreet, and .ons numerous occasions was eau tioned by some of the boys to he more careful, lest invoke the wrath of the high-up and be. invited. to- s'.take the air."
 But what was jobSs The elosss of it meant nothing i'll my young life, and to he ''cannedn for sticking up for a principle-well, there was some glamour attached to- such q martyr+ dom.
 The political air became warm and still warmer. What with parades, processions, spellbinders, and so forth. nothing outside of paramount issues" was worth burdening one's. mind with.
 Did we believe our man would win 7 I'll tell the world we did. Hadn't he said so himself. Hadn't the:editoriat writers on some of the biggest papers in the. country said. so?

 What more did we want? What more convincing proof was necessary that our man was unbeatable?
