Hoey has no delectable dish of crow
to eat. Meanwhile, the commission is
tearing up and tearing down old road
structures. A day or two ago it was
announced that the Nelson-Chapel
Hill stretch of Is miles will be open
again today and in perfect shape for
the fall traffic, which means football
At least $4,000 fans will be appeased
by that. Then the Asheboro-New Lon
don road, badly battered by last win

hauling before frost, and some of the
tobacco markets in the middle belt
already are being served by the ac-
centuated work. BY legislature time
it is figured that Mr.. Waynick will

light, calling "Jume2"
NO, it's not June" q mans voice
said shortly truculently.
Mrs. Plummer found the string. The
times when they met for June's sake
did not count. They stared as II they
had never seen each other since they
parted. June's father had a thick, strong
figure and blunt features. The top Of
ms head was as ruddy as his forehead;
When he took off his hat Il looked Ike
a smoother extension OF his brow A
wing Of gray stubble spread behind
each ear. The blue Of his eyes was dis
tinctly Irish. He had not been raised
hereabouts and spoke with a harder
accent
There's fire out there. You know

Il thought maybe the building would

As If a curtain had raised an inch,

But 1t was all very dim behind the
curtain; she could not feel that she
actually remembered. She began to \
smile and speak as she would to anyone I
who had been kind enough to rouse
her. Was there much danger II the
building catching? Ought She to try |
to move these things?
I dunno. They're fighting it. What |
do you want to get out2"
She looked around and all at once /
she shrugged. She had worried so much ]
about this equipment. It was wonder
ful, the feeling Of release with which
she now abandoned it.

What would I do with it anyway
Where's June?"
They're still in Ava. I was sitting
around the house waiting for them

She snatched up her coat along the
way to cover the red and white cotton
print that she wore in the shop. The
whole of her window pane was red.
Lord, the chickensI" she cried. A
hen, squawking, flew up and hit her
n the face. She grabbed, doubled with
laughter. June's father grabbed too,
md they came up with handfuls OF
feathers, pursuing the hen. It roasted
N the table, then on the icebox. Half
/ dozen Others scuttled through the
,pen door; the yard was alive with fowl
nadly cackling, while more chickens
scrambled through the alley from the

vas chasing chickens.

Mrs. Plummer to realize that this
grown woman, the mother of a 12-year-

almost any womanly experience from
childbirth to the baking of a ham on
terms Of perfect equality, was her
daughter; June to think that this

Reversal Asked

The Montana supreme court has

decisions, made In 1881. The Rosebud
Land and Investment Co. obtained an
Injunction in district court preventing
the Gainesville irrigation district and
the assessor from taxing lands In the
district on which title was acquired
by tax deed. The supreme court de-
cision in a Cascade county case was
cited as establishing the law that lands
In bonded irrigation district were re-
leased from the lien of the bonds when
sold for delinquent taxes. The Carriers
vile district and the Rosebud assessor
now charge that the supreme court de-
cision is faulty and that as result of
1t Montana irrigation district bonds
are unstable and that the RFC has
refused to lend money to such districts.
