Mary Lou looked up at him.
He was so tall she had to look
I'D. His brown eyes were intent
upon her face, intent and com.
pelling. She felt a slow tide OF
color rise, flooding throat ana
face and brow. She looked
away and opened book which
lay before her, idly, with a hand
which shook, and followed a
line of print with blind eyes
Lorrimer drew a deep breath.
He was no fool. He had seem
He had seen the response in her
lifted eyes, the betraying color.
His heart rose, light, within
him.
He had been troubled lately,
feeling the change in her atti-
tude toward him. Something
warmer than indifference yet
cooler than liking. But now?
He wondered. on sudden flash
of hope, if it was because she
was really coming to care for
him again, and, remembering
her bargain with him, had set
her pride to guard her heart.
For he had bargained that II
ever she came to care she would
tell him so. And that she
would, some day, he had no
doubt. If she cared. For she
was, he knew, essentially hon.
est-or had become so. AS he
remembered her, years and
leagues away, she had not been
so honest; she had been a born
coquette, playing with his and
her own emotions. But now, he
thought, he could depend on
her. And he was pitiful, COM
pretending. Let her pride have
its little brief day. Some time
she would surrender it.
Dearest" he said, under his
breath.
Her eyes met his for one in
finiteSimal instant. In them he
read, briefly, an extraordinary
appeal, as if he had wounded
her terribly. He spoke her
name, very low, urgently, and
then her eyes were veiled. But
he had seen the tears.
Her Sudden Exit
She turned away, murmur-
ing something about changing
for dinner, and left the room.
The others started after her.

Mrs. Lorrimore looked, puz-

Jenny thrust her hands into
her jacket pockets and whis-

the library door. None of
them had seen anything, but
all of them had sensed, intu-

emotion.
Larry, of course, had to put
It into words. He was not
ordinarily a stupid young man
but he had been astonished

and Jenny answered, smiling
at the sudden attention aroused
by her simple statement OF

ITO dress for dinner, and
it's high time we followed her

There was malice in her
tone. Larry jumped and glared
down at her. Mrs. Lorrimer

"Why, Jenny!"

only 10 first grade certificated teach
ers, as compared with 143 for 1880
81, with no second grade and no third
grade teachers now in service.
Four schools were closed during the
year by consolidation, so that at pres
ent there are in the county 80 one

112. This is a decrease of 10 in the
one-teacher schools, and one each in

Many Visitors
 in Town To-day Fine Weather Gave Them a Chance to Do Some
 Sightseeing

There are quite good many strange faces about the streets to- day and the fine weather gave them a good opportunity to do some sight seeing.
 With a few hundred letter carriers and about an equal number of Sons of the American Revolution and their friends, no wonder many who had not kept in mind the fact that there were two banquets to be held here to-day inquired where all the strangers came from. Mir. Barrett, the principal speaker at the meeting of the Sons of the American Revo- lution. with members of the commit tee, was a visitor at the Democrat office. MT. Barrett was formerly in the newspaper business, and talked like one who had not forgotten the trials of men who gather news and handle copy.
 The letter carriers. too, were pres- ent in large numbers, and no doubt they will have crowded house at the banquet and dance in Temple hall tonight, at which Postmaster Colgrove will be toastmaster.

Rotary Celebrates
 26th Anniversary
Over 5000 Cities of the World Are Celebrating Found
 ing of Rotary International To-day

Chicago. Feb 23-There are cele- brations this week in nearly $500 cities around the world in observ- ance of the founding of the Rotary movement in Chicago on February 23, 1905. After five years of study, Paul P. Harris, a Chicago attorney, met with three of his friends on that evening and unfolded his plan for a club of business and professional men, the purpose of which would be mutual helpfulness. The club would include but one man from each dis tinct line of business or profession. The club would encourage shop talk" and business fellowship Within few weeks there was a score of members and the first of the 'service' clubs came into ex- istence.
 Inspired by this success. the founder began to organize clubs in other large cities. The second club was formed in San Francisco three years later and then in rapid suc- cession clubs were founded in six teen of the largest cities in the country. within the first five years.
 Within the Chicago Rotary club there were developing some of the ideas and principles which the fa- miliar everywhere. Paul Harris gave to the club the name Rotary" based upon the original custom of holding meetings in the offices of members in rotation. The founder also devised the classification prin- ciple of membership, restricting membership in the club to one man in each distinct line of business or profession.
 When the club grew too large to meet in members offices, it was pro- posed to meet at luncheon, or occa- sionally at dinner. From the name Rotary" and the thought of "rota- ion among ones friends, came the inspiration for the Rotary emblem, he wheel. After passing through various stages this evolved as the cog wheel.
