Pippin?"
Pippin's Views
"Well-it's pretty hot in spots.
But after all, Dad, there can't
be more emotion in human be-
ings now than before, can
there? I don't know how it was
in your time but girls today
some of them-are just deter
mined to find out for them
selves and they do a lot Of con-
temptuous talking about older
people.
"They really feel proud about
being frank and sort of scarlet.
Some of them are just a big
bluff. I know they haven't as
much real blaze as I have and I
don't have to go around making
bonfires on every hillside.
"Of course there are some
real hot numbers. They do as
they please, and they please to
do plenty. But they don't talk.
They LIVE! I like them. I
think they're really brave"
But blind, Pippin. Aren't
they a little blind?"
"Why is it blind, Dad? They're
being true to themselves: they're
living completely in the moment
and not postponing to a day
that may never come. And they
usually are wildly in love-for
the time, anyway The world
is blind to count emotion like
that wrong"
That's true. But they can't

They do buck it, Dad. I

I nodded in understanding.
And then I saw Anderson do
one of those things, so unusual
in police official. one of those
tender comprehending things
that had endeared him to the
hearts of his men.
He walked over to the cot
where the burglar Stokes was
beginning to revive.
1T was all right, wasn't it?"
he asked weakly as he saw
Anderson.
The inspector reached over
and picked up Tins hand in
his.
Right as a trigger. Tim" he
said heartily, pretending not to
notice the mystification of DR..
Dandy. 1T was fine. You told
us exactly what you did De-
fore, and I'm sure that it was
the truth"
Tim heaved a great sigh of
relief.
"Only for a little while, Tim"
went on the inspector, still
holding his hand. FOR a little
while the whole world is going
to look mighty black for you.

hope it is-and think it is.

Darling" she murmured with
a soft laugh and rubbing her
cheek against his sleeve. "Not
afraid I'm going to try it? Not
what I want. I want the big,
laundering, supreme emotion
the tidal wave that sweeps you
to a mountain top. I'm going
to WATT"

ing an arm about her.

said I could be free-could

be very terrible to you if

She could feel him grind his
teeth.
Pippin's Reaction
He looked down at her with
eyes dark and burning in
face suddenly thin. He put his

She said quickly, wounded by
his look:
II didn't mean it, Dad. Don't
worry about me. I'm not for it

He answered grimly:
"Your life is your own. I've
no right to stop you. But
Great God, girl, how could l
stand by and watch your heart
break I wonder how I

She dashed a hand to her
face and grinned, looked up
with bright. misty eyes:

In spring toward the end Of
that first joyous college year,
Bill returned. He was weather
burned and glistening; even his
blond hair a little parched.
He came running up the steps,
happy and impatient, his first
day IN port.
They went for a walk. AS
soon as the trees hid them, he
swung Pippin about:

CHAPTER XXXYu

OF the two men, I have never
been dead sure. Both of them
heard Tim Stokes yarn. If
either of them is guilty, he has
left behind him a fatal clue
in the shape of that electric
bulb. Wat is he likely to do
under the circumstances"
go after it, you mean?"
Certainly. He will believe
that all suspicion has been di-
verted from himself-that's
why I accused Stokes of the
murder-and that we have
abandoned our investigation.
He knows t.lct upon this night
alone there will, be no one in
the Paige house. Some time
after dark and before morn
ing, he will go into that eel
lar and put a fresh electric
bulb in that socket"
And we'll be there to nab
him." I exclaimed with en-
thusiasm.
Anderson smiled.
"I'll be there. I don't think
you will"
"Why not?" I cried. "You
promised to let me see this
thing through. Why won't
you let me be in at the fin
ish?'
st don't believe that you'll
be able to stand the strain. let
alone the possibility of
-to-hard encounter ith a
desperate murderer. For that
man will be armed and ready
to let us have it,
I'm fine" I answered child
ishly. "And as for a fight,
why have a license to carry
revolver and to wear an
official police star"
"Really?" said Anderson be-
ginning to laugh. well, if
you promise that you won't
faint on my lids, I'll con-
slider it. If you feel able, drive
your own car out the Towson
State Road tonight. After
dark. After dark, mind you.

Pippin felt glad. She felt like
laughing. There was something
tonic about him, something
young and happy and sweet.
They went dancing together.
They went to shows. She came

telling him:
II shouldn't do this, Bill. I've
got an awful lot of work to
round up before examinations"
Bill Returns
"It's darling in you. It's
sweet. I'm going to try awfully
hard to be worth it,"
One Friday night they were
going to Bohemian affair in
the old art school. They were
excited.
"It's going to be wild, mother,
the maddest party I've ever been
to. It's going to last all night.
All the colorful people in San
Francisco will be there. You
and David should come. There
will be lots Of older people,"
She wore a dress of pale blue
with a little band of stars in her
hair.
AS they were leaving, Bill
clasped Chickie's hand. He said,
excitedly:
isn't she beautiful?"
Chickie followed them to the
door ready to cry because they
were so happy and all the world
smiling on them.
Before midnight she heard
steps in the hallway, then the
door of Pippin's room opened
and closed again softly.
She got out Of bed and stole
down the hall. A light flashed
under Pippin's door, but when
she turned the knob the room
was in darkness. Not five mi
nuteS, not three minutes had
passed since Pippin entered the
room, but she lay utterly quiet.
"Pippin, dear, you can't possi-
bly, be asleep, can you?"
The girl didn't answer. Then
Chickie stopped down and
kissed Pippin'S cheek. It was
wet, anu in the moonlight she
saw tears on the girls lids.

CATHOLIC PARISH
HAS GOOD YEAR
Weekly and Monthly Col
leCtiOnS Increase at st
MiChael'S Parish
WATERVILLE

Rev William J. O'Shea, pastor of
st Michaers church, presented the
annual financial report of the par
ish for 1888, at both masses yes
terday morning and was most ap-
preciative of the efforts and CO.
operation which the pensioners
have shown during the past year.
In spite of adverse business condi-
tons there was very definite in
crease in income for the weekly
offerings, and monthly collections
which constitute the ordinary reve-
nue. of the parish, although there
was marked decrease in the ex-
traordinary revenue for diocesan
expenses. This fact coupled with
the increase on extraordinary rev.
enue for parish expenses, derived
from entertainments, card parties
and suppers, indicate that st
Michaeps people are generous in
the support of their own affairs
even when personal incomes have
been definitely diminished. This Is
a splendid tribute to the member
ship of parish which lacks defin-
itely any individuals of means. AS
q result the parish closes the year
with a balanced budget and a
slightly higher balance on hand
than a year ago.
An item of unusual expense dur
ing the past year was that for in
stalling connections to the new
sewer in Thomaston avenue and
replacing of water main service
connections. During tho current
year more expense must be met
for the same items as we'll as
very substantial front footage as
sessment for the new sewer.
During the past year the efforts
of the Ladies' Aid Society, the
Young Ladies Sodality of the Chill
dren of Mary, and the children of
the parish under Miss Winifred
Delaney Melted very substantial
sum for the parish treasury, a fact
which brought much appreciative
comment from Father O'Shea.
The parish report indicates the
fine administrative genius of Fa-
Their O'Shea and the affection and
esteem in which he is held by his
band of loyal parishioners. Few
men could have secured this un-
qualified support which has made
it possible to balance the budget
during such a difficult period. The
parish Is out of debt and under its
present administration should re-
main SO.
