a little said Why don't you come over some
Sunday afternoon, when that gang is all at your
house, Wesley"
Il will Id like to. '" Just then Pete came from
the house with milk pals on his arm and told
Christina her mother needed her. His manner
was brusque. Wesley didn't come to call.
But Christina thought great deal about
him. She knew he hadn't good winter suit or
overcoat He was shy. He couldn't bring him
self to assume the role of suitor against Petes
uncompromising attitude. Her heart burned.
Wesley was so good, so gentle. He worked so
hard. She felt patient with him. impatient
with all the Others
Suddenly it was Fall. Wesley, without any
fanfare, entered the County Corn Husking Con-
test and won it. Christina drove their own
wagon for him. and she was proud when he
finished way ahead of the other lads. There
was luncheon under the trees at Overmans,
where the county husking was held Everyone
was surprised and pleased about Wesley.
Christina sat opposite him and enjoyed his
confusion his pleasure. Pete sat beside her,
and more than once she knew Pete raised his
head and studied Wesley.
But there we're other by products of WesleyS
small fame Angel Overman saw him for the
first time. Not literally for she had always
known him But she had never before seen him
as a romantic possibility Angel slender. red
haired pretty as picture with golden freckles
over her white nose, looked at Wesley with
brand new interest and excitement She brought
him his plate of food and dropped down
beside him.
You were wonderful" Angel said. Wesley,
you were simply marvellous. Listen, we'll all go
to the State Contest next Thursday. Well get
big gang together so that you will have plenty
of followers.
Christina was put out Angel had taken it
over Angel would run it. Angel did what
girl always does when she has her eye on new
beau She decided to have party. She invited
all the contestants, invited Wesley and his
three oldest sisters. Christina and other neigh
Dor young people to come to her house on Satur-
day night.
We'll have celebration" she said, "one
now and another later Wesley, how does it feel
to be National Corn Husking Champion''
Wesley laughed. He was having grand

Angel laughed Her throat was white as milk.

Christina said, Wesley can be National

the State Championship before.
And we haven't got it yet, Wesley Ie

Angel said, "Oh, haven't we? How about the
record you made"
THAT record won't count next Thursday
A queer feeling came over Christina She
felt it was bad luck for Angel to make SO many
positive statements Secretly she reached down
and knocked on the edge of her chair. She SAID
We'll all 90 with Wesley, and we'll cheer Tor
him But let not count our chickens
There YOU 60, cried Angel, odd Common
sense Chris Well tell you right now kno"
Wesley will win.
Christina was sienced, and long after she
was home and in bed she was wakeful ana
miserable If Wesley did win the State Contest
then Angel would manage his entrance into
the National take it all over. No man could
resist Angel She had rhythm,

Wesley forgot his overalls last night. she
said. Come on with me, Christina. and we II

pleasure of sitting in the kitchen and seeing
Angel and Wesley standing by the gate talking
together for long time. Angel took Christina
home, so Wesley did not walk across the fields
with her as he usually did,
The sky was all tender green and rose.
Over the barn one star burned brightly. Chris
tina felt her heart opening painfully to the
beauty of the twilight and she prayed suddenly.
Let me only want what is good and right
what flows from land and sky
The Manages were at breakfast Thursday
morning and it was still dark when Angel drove
her car into the lane. Pete had decided to go

pleased about it. but there was nothing she
could do They drove on over to the Bowers.

But they didn't pay much attention to Chris

though he and she were all alone. Christina
thought about the bitter actuality of Angel all
the next day. Had she brought Wesley out of
his obscurity for Angel
A car full of Bowers stopped the next night
to take Christina over to Angels to the party.
Mrs Bowers. a cake in her lap, was in the front
seat; Christina had to pile in back with the
girls
There was a crowd at Overmans Half
dozen mothers were in the kitchen. cutting
cakes, setting out glasses for cider. Angel
greeted Wesley as though he had come all
alone. took him by the hand and led him into
the middle of the room and raised his arm.
The Winnahi' she cried The Champ.
Everyone cheered Wesley grew red with
pleasure.
Come on and dance with me. Wesley. I'm
going to teach you to dance. The girls say you
cant, but I'll teach you.
Wesley hasn't any rhythm" said Bernice.
But Angel laughed at that Listen to the
RADIO she cried. "Of course, you've got

Angel put her arm around Wesleys neck
and persevered in the dancing lesson At last
she broke away from him and danced around
him. to show him the step, her bright hair fly

thought.
Her gaiety infected the others and soon they
were all dancing but Wesley left them and sat
by Christina She tried to force herself to be
natural, but something was gone. She was
deeply disturbed about Wesley. Was it true, as
Bernice said, that he had no rhythm? Was he
out of step with life Was that one reason he
permitted his family to impose on him. Was
that why her father wasn't impressed with
him? But no. Christina felt something in
Wesley She surely could not feel as she did
about him if he were actually tuneess, out
of time.
The supper was served and there was noise
and merrment in the long dining room. Angel
rose at last and said that they had present
for Wesley. She had bought pair of overalls
for him to wear in the State Contest. They were
to be magic overalls Everyone was to wish on
them. so Wesley couldn't fail to win. From
package she extracted pair of new blue over
as and passed them around. With much
laughter everyone made mumbo- Jumbo; then
Angel gave them to Wesley making little
