public Is an enigma.
Just now, as teachers lead the
way back to the small school houses
that stand on country crossroads in
the September sun, and the great
institutions that wait on city streets.
this profession again takes up the
most important role in American
life.
A great teacher once said: Train
up a child in the way he should go
and when he is old he will not de-
part from it." The advice is as
timely today as it was when the
Caesars ruled the Roman world.
Surely, no greater mission can be
given a man or woman than the
instruction of children. They who
are ashamed that the world will
find out that they have chosen this
vocation are not worthy of it.
To the great, high-minded army
who are proud to carry on the edu-
cation for citizenry and right-living,
we give our thanks. After all, being
a teacher means more than instruc-
ton in long division and locating
the capitals of European countries
on a pink and green map. 1t means
opening a new trail that goes back
ward to the kingdoms that have
persisted with the years and runs
bravely up the hills of the future, to
the dawn of a tomorrow which the
Youngsters of today shall claim some
time.
1t means establishing an acqualnt-
ance with beauty, truth, honor, sim
certify through friendly contact with
the poets, artists, statesmen, and
musicians who have glorifled life.
It means putting the key to hope
and beauty and faith in hands that
would grope blindly without 1t.
A child has no background Of
comparison against which to eStab-
lish a world. He is building brave,
new kingdom. His teachers have
fresh material for molding. 1t is a
rare privilege to take the clay and
cultivate a healthy, growing interest
in life and citizenship.
1T is so monotonous-this work.
ing with children" some teachers
say. Nothing that happens to them
is very important Now if I had a
college position"
Not very important? AS the old
poem said, when a small girl breaks
her doll, the whole world dies that
day. True, the world will be reborn

Viewpoint
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

A FAVORITE topic among
L n women who keep maids relates
to that process known as 'raking
them over the Goals" The theory
goes that unless one is given a peri
odic dressing down she'll get out Of
hand.
Il had a regular set-to with Sally
last week." the tale runs. ''She's a
jewel Of cook, but about every
four months she has to have a good
scolding. Goes slipshod and grumpy
They All get uppity now and then.
Well, I decided the time was ripe
and gave Sally a piece of my mind
She'll be an angel for the next six
months, dear old Sally"
I had heard that sort of thing so
often I was beginning to wonder
whether the trick wouldn't work in
reverse, and I'm now happy to an
nOunce that it does.
Our committee was meeting at
the employment Office of the Y. w
c. A. When Anna came in. She's a
big girl from the farm with a strong
streak of Irish, and a grander per-
son you'd never meet. Having got
her first job through us, she comes
back to pay a friendly call about
once fortnight.
Something popped inside of me,
she explained, when Mrs. j
started in on me yesterday. Before
I'd always had sense enough to
keep my mouth shut, to say Yes
Ma'am' and Nom and promise to
do better. 1t lust didn't seem to be
me talking. I was scared to death
all the time but the old Irish in me
got the upper hand and did I give
her dressing down!
"Mrs. j. I says, as bold as
you please, if that's the way you
feel about me I give notice right
here and now. It's my opinion you'll
never get a maid to suit you. And
no more will the rest of the family
Mr.. j is as grouchy man as
ever I saw, with never a kind word
no matter what do for him. Seems
like the more I try the harder it is
to please you all. And I'm just
human, Mrs. j. It's an angel
with wings you're wanting. I amt
fit for the place." Anna paused.
Go on" we shouted. What hap
pened, Anna?"
We'll, you wouldn't believe it. She
came around the table and patted
me on the shoulder, gentle as a
lamb. There, there, Anna she
says, we're both tired out. Just 60
to your room and have a good rest
and forget all about it,"

count one losing trick each in
spades, hearts and clubs, and, if the
diamond finesse is successful, the
contract will be made.
Most players would play the hand
on this basis, and calmly accept
their fate when the diamond king
turns up on the wrong side. A really
keen player would provide himself
another opportunity to make the
contract, and in this case he would
be successful.
TINE opening heart lead is won in
l. dummy with the king and a
small diamond is led Immediately.
If East plays l0w, declarer plays the
nine spot, driving out Vests king.
The two high diamonds viii then
provide a heart discard, which can
be taken before the opponents cash
a heart trick.
If East plays the jack or ten of
diamonds, South covers with the
queen and can then finesse through
East on the second diamond lead.
To be sure, he is risking a trick by
this play, but the chance to make
the contract amply justif1es it.
The time element is vital in this
instance, for if South does not make
his diamond play at the second
trick, the king of hearts will be
forced out and the heart discard
can not be taken soon enough.

moon. As yet there had been no snow, and
the dry leaves rustled free and eery although
it was 50 still.
Hating Aleck Stewart for his impudence to
her mothers memory. she wished that she
might sit here until the river - that river!-
foze solid to the bottom and thus gave the
lie to what he had said. Aleck Stewart, with
his male, leathery smell! As though she could
ever forget that night of the tax meeting at the
hall, with Alexis eye pinned on her like por-
cupine quilts on a dogs nose And Mef,s fierce
whispering, That's the look they all have -
before they destroy you. Men!" After that,
Jensine had Stunned Aleck Stewart as if he
were the plague.
The river crooned softly out of its running
heart and suddenly Jensine could bear it no
longer. It was cold tonight but not cold
enough to freeze across that flowing trouble.
She stood up angrily, rife in hand Baldur
stretched and began to explore the underbush
in desultory way. She proceeded up the path
to the unlighted house.
OF course, Alexis talk about the man-hunt
had just been an excuse. Milt Strachauer had
come over from his farm one day week ago
to see if she had any potatoes to sell. He knew
full well that she had disposed of all her
potatoes to the store in town. But he had had
the gall to slip his arm about her an6 she had
sent him spinning into the woodpile. This visit
of Alexis was all of piece. Man-hunt,
indeed!
In the kitchen again, Jensine laid the rifle
on the table and felt for the lamp on the wall,
in front of its reflector. Baldur had not come
in at her heels as he usually did. She heard
him whine, and spoke to him reassuringly
while the fame fickered in the wick. She re-
placed the chimney and turned to the door.
Then she stood tense and stared at the old
sofa under the window.
A man lay there. his body askew as though
he had been thrown. his legs sprawled out
Evening star., 1935-05-12

and his head twisted to one side. From the
slight. regular heaving of his shoulders. she
knew that he was asleep. not dead, as she had
first thought with horror.
After one considering glance at her rife
on the table. she shrugged her shoulders and
stole noiselessly across the floor. She stopped
and looked at the mans face. It was young
and not mattractive beneath shaggy mop
of light hair. But it was neither the features
nor the coloring that arrested Jensine. It was
the shallow innocence the defenceless yacs,ity
on that face. from which the profound sleep
Of unimaginable exhaustion had washed
away every trace of violence and the terror
OF the hunted. Thief - murderer, perhaps,
whether by intent or accident; criminal,
whether by nature or by the heartless mis-
chief of circumstance. the man was at this
moment in his incredible depth of slumber,
an unmarried boy again.
Jensine realized suddenly that she was
shaking uncontrollably. although waves of
heat were rushing over her body. 1t was all
she could do to reach the chair near the head
of the sofa without staggering.
How long she sat there, smothering her
uneven breath and staring at the tousled
head beside her, she would never know. The
interval could not be reckoned as time. but
rather as place in which her brain and her
body and her soul underwent a transmutation
into something strange and new. Under her
roof the brief freedom of human life, per-
haps the very life itself, was in her keeping,
at her mercy. The knowledge overwhelmed
and humbled her.
She thought of her own lonely girlhood,
deprived of the normal companionship of her
schoolmates by the suspicious vigilance of her
mother, who had feared always that, outside
her home, she would learn of pleasures that
were the devils pitfalls. She saw herself in her
teens. learning to despise the frivoity of
neighbor girls who primped and paraded to

woods. Don't 60 out of the house" He picked
up his wool cap and pulled it down over his
dark hair. "A grocer in Blaseville was shot to
death last night. BY his own gun-in a
scuffle with thief. cTuitsirank found a man
stealing biscuits in the back of his store and
went after him with revolver. The fellow
wasn't armed. but he made dive at Cruik-
shank's knees and the gun went off, A clerk
saw the whole thing from the doorway, but
the thief got away. The sheriff and posse
are out looking for the poor wretch. and I'm
pledged to help 'em, though have no heart
inthe job. The man was probably only hungry.
But there's no telling what he may be like
by this time. He's likely desperate and ready
to do anything. He's narmed as far as we
know, but thought you ought to be warned.
He came out this way. didn't like the idea
of your being here alone
A quick, impersonal change had come into
Alexis eyes while he watched Jensine Her
face remained immobile, unstartled.
Il can take care of myself" she said con-
temptuously.
You haven't seen anything of him, them"
Aleck asked with sigh. He felt defeated now
that his legitimate errand had not yielded him
any satisfaction. He could not even enjoy a
sense of masculine apprehensiveness for Jen-
sine's safety - so fearless and self-sufhcient
she was!
II haven't seen anyone" Jensine replied
coolly. "You are the first man on this land
today - and you're one too many"
His teeth sank into his lower lip and his
clear eyes cleaned unpleasantly "If you were
hrifsan enough to understand it," he said
softly, I'D tell you to 60 to the devilr'
With the sound of her breath drawn
sharply into her throat he plunged out of the
house and slammed the door behind him.
She had been sitting on the river bank
under the birches for half an hour or more,
after supper, her rife on one side of her, the
dog Baldur on the other. The stars had pat

attract the attention of some lout of youth.
She saw herself now. at twenty five, becoming
spare and empty and hard - she who had
been supple and secret with living.
And presently, while the tears streamed
down her hot cheeks, she knew that what
she yearned for most of an was to put her
arms about the unconscious man there on the
sofa and lay his head against her breast, as
some woman must have done years ago when
he was small. She knew then that her mother
must have become twisted and wrong. as some
unfortunate trees are made 50 growing alone
on windswept hilltops. And when the thought
crept fearfully into her mind that fate might
some day oontrive to make of big Aleck
Stewart what this man was now, she slipped
silently to her knees and barely touched with
her trembling fingers the matted head on the
sofa. Her lips moved without any sound, and
she did not know for what it was that she
prayed.
The man on the couch did not waken when
Baldur barked at some distance from the
house. Another sound was there, too, and
Jensine got quickly and noiselessly to her feet.
Her thoughts darted now, clear and separate.
Undoubtedly the fugitive had run all last
night and all day through the woods, eluding
the pack that was after him. He had blum
dered into her darkened house and in the
recklessness of fatigue had struck a match
and found warm place in which to surrender
himself to sleep and to whatever might follow.
He would remain asleep for hours but now
the pack was up the road. closing in upon him.
Jensine turned the lamp lower, threw
shawl about her shoulders and with her rife
under her arm went out into the darkness.
They were coming through the gate at the
end of the lane. six muffled figures in the
starlight, and Baldur was quiet now, for Aleck
