CHAPTER 81


ALIX, back in Bairdsyille at last
was being driven by Bill Boyd tt
the house where she was to live.
Bill! Oh, no, they didn't pu
up an apartment on the Elliot
grounds! / remember that place
from the time I was only baby
and mother used to always play
at the June concert for the
Congregational church" AliX was
getting new perspective of hel
home town.
more people coming into
Bairdsvale every year. you know,
said Bill. TITS getting to be a
trading center and the mills are
doing we'll. Need more good homes
as wealth comes in"
It was getting dark and lights
winked at her from the houses set
back from the streets.
AliX felt emotional, with a new
kind of emotion, as she saw the
familiar landmarks.
I'm sorry for people who have
no home town to go back to-" she
said more to herself than to Bill.
There are plenty of folk here
who will be anxious to see you,"
he said before AliX realized that
she had none of her own people
to welcome her. MY dad wants
you to come to supper tomorrow
night if you can"
Bill said supper. He was like
that. No airs" from him. Sup
per in the Boyd home was leis-
urely meal served in a high cell
inged room at a table beautifully
appointed and perfectly served in
the candlehght.
"Oh, Bill, I'd love to-" she an
swered gratefully.
HE wanted me to bring you to-
night but said you'd be tired"
II am" she said YEARLY, spent
not with the fatigue of travel but
the strangeness of all this.
"Then, Margie King-she mar
ried Cyril Flount-says she wants
you to call her up as soon as you
can. And the Birney twins-say,
you'd never know them now for
they're skinny as rails and they
used to be like butterballs-Will be
around to call as soon as you want
them"
BY the time they drove up be-
fore Miss Ellis house, Alix was
glad for the darkness that en-
folded them. AliX didn't want Bill
to see the warm tears that spilled
out of her eyes. She touched
them with the finger of her white
doeskin glove. She hadn't thought
she could feel that way, that she
could feel at all. John Sayre was
far away from her now but she
didn't let herself think of him.
The spotless white of Miss Ellis
house showed it's wide, generous
proportions, the cupolas and tur-
rets against the dark sky. A mel
low yellow light winked from the
door with welcoming warmth.
The door was flung open as they
approached and Alix's first view of
her new home showed a wide hall
with mahogany rail outlining
the circular curve of a white stair
case. Then she saw the carved
chair, the grandfather's clock, the
sampler on the wall and the worn
Persian rug on cleaning floor.
Silhouetted against this back
ground was the tall. lean, black

WHO ARE THE TORIES?

Taxed with his drift from youthful
liberalism to aged Toryism, Mark
Sullivan cried: 81 haven't changed; Pm
still liberal. Since the Magma
Charta liberals have fought to take
power from the state, to win more
liberty for the individual. That's what
I fought for, and am still fighting for"
In recent years, anyone who has
had the temerity to suggest that the
United States Constitution still Of
fers greater freedom and protection to
the common man than any new-fan-
gled ideas involving socialism, COM
munism, fascism or any. other. ism, has
subjected himself to abuse and the
charge of being Tory, a reactionary
or long list Of other stock names and
phrases tending to undermine conf
dence in our constitutional govern
ment. =
For centuries the common people
fought and died trying to wrest power
from the state in order to give more
freedom to the individual. And that's
what our Constitution, like. the Magma
Charta, is for-to protect, the people
from too much encroachment by gov
eminent; in other words, to make the
government exist for the people rather
than the people exist as paWps of gov
-ernment. .@'Y.Dn...l
And now, in the twentieth century,
after hundreds of years Of fighting, al
ways to take power away from kings
and state in order to protect the COM
mon man against tyranny, we see a
growing movement in our own United
States to reverse the process of free
dom of the individually limit states
rights and concentrate greater power
in centralized government that will
act in paternalistic and competitive
capacity with it's citizens.
Can the United States Constitution
be called Tory document? If not, can
those who object to the destruction of
its safeguards of the. common man,
be called Tories? ~ ''"''
It would rather seem that those who
wish to extend the, power. of govern
ment over the individual, are the Tor
les and the reactionaries, while those
who defend the Constitution are the
liberals.

The Miracle In A Dry Place

He turneth the dry ground into water
springs-Psalm 1O7:35. Il
one of the miracles of grace,
says DR.. Jowett! Our Heavenly Father
has the power to transform a barren,
bitter experience into a sweet foun-
tain, of blessings. We pass into appar-
entity waste places, but if we have the
vision of faith we find riches of con-
ISOLATION. E",
Professor Mail has a lecture on
HThe Botany of a Railway Station"
He found something graceful and ex-
quisie in the midst of it's SCOT and
CRIME. The seeing eye can always find
beauty where others see nothing but
ugliness. The faithful heart finds hid
den treasures where others see moth
ing but poverty and restitution.
Let us, therefore, not fear when the
path of duty turns into the wilderness.
The Lord has strange mama for the
children of disappointment, and He
makes water to "gush forth from the
rock" The path of duty He Himself
has trod before US; and He is travelling
it again, our unseen companion, our
guiding light in Darkness our
strengthened in hours of weakness.
our encourager in time of peril.

SER M ON
Perspective
By REV. WALTER B. BROCK

In the latter days we shall understand
it perfectIy.-Jeremiah 1920.
Life is like a work Of art: we must
get away from it in order to under
stand it., We must view its details in
their proper perspective in order to
appreciate their meaning. We must
look back upon the events Of today
from the vantage point of tomorrow
in order to perceive their true signifi-
canoe.
At close range a great painting ap-
pears to be little more than con-
glomeration of colors, but when one
steps back a few PAGES one begins to
appreciate the beauty Of the canvas.
Likewise a closeup of life often re-
veals nothing but a tumble of dis
appointed hopes, frustrated plans, bit
ter experiences. We must step back a
few PAGES. We must view the present
from the vantage point of the future.
Then things are seen in their true per-
spective; meaning, purpose, order,
beauty, are revealed where before we
saw only chaos and confusion, suffer-
ing and SORROW
In the latter days we shall under
stand why a cross was laid upon US,
why the hearts desire was withheld,
why the door was closed to US which we
thought would lead US to our promised
land. . =. .,...

More Than 1000 Automobile
Owners In County Are
Without 1886 Tags

Members of more than 1000 fam
lilies who own automobiles in Garrett
county are walking these days unless
they are prevailing upon their neigh
bors and friends for rides-or unless
they are taking chances and riding in
cars bearing the 1885 license tags.
According to figures given out by
]. J. Ashby, Jr., county treasurer, ap-
proximately 1000 automobile owners
in the county have paid their auto tax
and have had their applications for re-
newal of license plates perforated at
his office.
There are more than 5000 automo-
biles listed on the tax books, it was
stated, which would leave more than
1000 who have not paid their 1885
auto taxes and are therefore not eligi-
BILE to secure their 1886 license tags.
