desperate determination - but
they'd be wrong! And my friends
would be even worse - cocktails and
champagne and risque cracks about
marriage - those people would
frighten you and you hate them. Oh,
precious little thing. I'm not going to

meant all he said. A man could hope,
with Tiny in his arms Tiny's eyes
could make a man believe that he
could start life fresh and new and
make it all different than before.
He had hard time persuading Tiny
that they ought to run away. She
loved her father. She could hardly
bear the idea of upsetting him that
way. But even if she didn't quite
understand about her not fitting in
with Penny's friends. she did know
MIR. Penny wasn't exactly approved of
in Drenham yet.
So. in the end, the plan was made
for Thursday night
Thursday night happened to be the
monthly meeting Of the Drenham
Merchants Association Once month
all nine Drenham merchants gathered
for supper at the Depot Tavern. Oscar
Brown and George Wharf we're two of
the nine. so on those nights it was
Tiny who shut up the store at nine
o'clock.
James Penny would simply be
parked in front of the store. On their
way out of town, Tiny would stop at
her empty house long enough to leave
a note for her father and pick up her
suitcase, already in the closet under
the stairs.

heavy as that suitcase hidden under

whether she was frightened or excited.

APPOMATTOX, Va, Dec. 13.-
P. C. HUBBARD of Lynchburg, who
made drawings in 1893 of the Nc
Lean House, scene of Gen. Robert
E. Lees surrender, will see his
work put to use at last.
The specifications and drawings
Of the historic dwelling which were
made before its demolition Al years
ago will be used in the National
Park Service project for restoring
the old village 25 miles east of
Lynchburg.
The plans for rebuilding the house
are in Washington, where the his
toric American buildings survey is
preparing measured drawings prepa-
ratory to the working drawings
which will be used in actual re-
construction.
Plans Were Obtained.
The Park Service obtained the
plans and specifications knc,-n as
the "Hancock-Hubard plans" from
the firm of C. w. Hancock e. Sons
of Lvnchburg Va. and Huntington,

down, however, the plans to trans
fer it to Washington failed to mate

However, the Hancocks retained
the specifications and drawings,
which were made by Hubbard, then
young Lynchburg craftsman and
still resident of that city.
AS the Hancock Hubbard drawings
were made after some changes had
been made in the house, the Park
Service has studied many old pho
tographS made both during and
after the war, prints and recollec-
tions of residents of this section to
obtain an accurate picture of the
original structure.
Old Print Was Found.
Tecnnicians said an old print
from a drawing by Federal named
Webber was found showing the Nc

details and other features.

A. R. enjoyed Saturday when they
met in the Barbara Worth hotel

business session.
Mrs. Julia Bracket. with Mrs.
Edna Christofferson. was in charge
of the program and spoke briefly
on American music She asked her
audience if they understood the
term to mean music, or composers,
pointing out that while there are
many American composers, genuine
American music is either the In
dian or Negro melodies since all
other music is rooted in the Eu-
ropean traditions. The attempt to
develop genuine American school
and the work of some modern COM
poSerS was commented upon as
the various program numbers were
developed
Dorothy Head was then presented
in series of songs, accompanied
by Mary Meyers, singing The
Rose" (Clokey), Ma Lindy Lou
(Strickland, The Big Brown
Bear" (Mana-Zucca).

series of compositions by Ameri-
cans, one of which was particularly
