The Rains
Came
Continued from Page ski

Aunt Phoebe TO serve the eggs
and coffee Edwina. who for years
had never raised a finger even to
dress herself He looked at her.
and IN The blue EYES he saw the
shadow Of a smile She was too
tired and the burden Of misery
was tee great for her TO smile.
but the look Of understanding was
there that she knew he thought
the spectacle funny.
But there was. too. in the sud-
den glance something appealing.
a. If she said You see, I can
be useful. I'm not useless fool
and he remembered the sight OF
her on The day before, with her
white evening gown hiked up and
fastened about the waist. making
her way scross the muddy red
plain. 4 sudden fash Of delight
went through him because people,
in 6 crisis were better than you
expected them 10 be-even people
ike Edwlna and himself
Opposite him. Raschid said,
Look Here come Homer and
Bertha and through the open
door they saw little procession
coming across the plain toward
the house from the direction Of
the shattered Sikh barracks. At
the head walked Homer Smiley:
after him trailed the p Untonch-
able boys from the night school
and at the rear like a sheep dog,
came Bertha Smiley.
They brought news. good news.
that there still remained a bridge
the steel bridge two miles above
the city which carried the mar
row-gauge railway across the
Ranchipur river, The force of the
flood and wreckage had Jared it
loose from its foundations. but it
was still solid enough TO provide
a way from one side of the town
TO the other.
When they had all heard the
Smileys story. Raschid said. What
is the news from the other side 90
The maharajah is dead" said
Homer Smiley. The hospital is
still standing. The summer pal
ace is wrecked The Engineering
school and the Law Courts have
burned. Her highness il living in
a tent in the park. She sent word
that she wanted to see Raschid
and Ransome f they were still
alive"
And the major >" asked RAM
some without looking at Edwina.
The major and Miss MacDaid
are alive. He was nearly drowned,
but God saved him by some mir
acle. It must have been God who
saved the man who is most
needed
Still Ransome did not look at
Edwina.
The Untouchable boy who had
been sent for Ransome's clothes
appeared with the message that
John the Baptist would remain TO
guard the house. The wild Bills,
said the boy, had come down from
the hills and begun footing DESERT
ed houses.
He needn't have stayed" said
Ransome. There isn't anything
to guard. They could take what
they like. so far as I am con-
cerned.'
Then he changed and. with Ras.
child, set out on the elephants for
the other side of the river. A
little crowd sped them on their
way, and as they left an idea came
to Ransome. Calling Homer over
to him, he said, What about set
ting the boys TO work to find the
bodies of Mr.. Simon and his daugh-
ter. In this heat, the sooner
they're found the less horrible it
will be

 Maybe we do have one ad- vantage. My boys know about bad breaks and when they get them in game they don't waste time worrying about it. You know our string of games in which the op- position went .scoreless ended on an 84-yard runback of the open ing kickoff for touchdown. But our boys came back to score twice and win"

 Name Suggested
 When a member of his class sug- gested that the new game be called "Naismith ball" in honor Of the or iglnator, Dr. Naismith immediately disapproved the idea with the com ment; Such a name would kill it instantly" Another member of the class, Frank Mahan, suggested "bas- ketball" which was approved by Dr. Naismith and 1t was adopted
 In the beginning there were only the fundamental rules governing the scoring The first important change in the code was that which prohib- tied spectators from touching the ball. Previous to that they often helped their favorite team or hin- dered opponents in the scoring of goal.
 When the popularlry of basketball extended outside the confines of Springfield College there was de- mand for set of fixed rules. Dr. Naismith drafted these in 1892.
 Yale is said. to have been the first of the universities to take up bas- ketball. Its adoption by others as well as by athletic clubs came rap idly until virtually every university, college. high school and athletic club was represented on the basket ball court.
 Game Not Strenuous
 Organization of leagues in var ious parts of the country helped eX- tend the popularity of the game and necessitated amendments to the rules from time to time. A joint committee on rules, which included representatives of the various or ganizations inttrested in the game, resulted. Dr. Naismith was honored with appointment as honorary chair man for life.
 Dr. Naismith devoted his entire life to physical training and the development of physical education. When basketball was criticized as tco strenuous he made a study of several years of the exact time all players in a game were in action. He made a tabulation of the re- suits and declared that he failed to find the sport too strenuous for boys of high school age; further he ex- pressed the belief that the game could be played with safety by girls and young women.
 AS a member of the First Kansas regiment, Dr. Naismith served four months on the Mexican border in 1916 and was with the Y M. c. A. in France during the World War.
 He was the author of the athletic section in The Modern High School" published in 1911 and "Ba- sis For Clean Living 1918. He was member of the Society of Di- rectors of Physical Education in Colleges, the Kansas Medical Asso- citation and the National Associa- tion of Physical Directors.
