- Yes, sir, Mr. Martin" Ron said
He was just bursting with joy but bit
scared and trembly, standing stiff at atten-
ton before the desk itching bit from the
brand new suit. 1t was sort of miracle that
he was going out of the Home. By the time
he was old enough to understand anything.
he'd known he was too old. People will adopt
cute girls with curs, but if they get boy,
they want a baby. Ron was now eleven, and
it was miracle that Mr.. and Mrs Eakin
should have had boy that age who died.
Ron thought it was just fine that he would be
taking the place of Jack
Understand. you'll be on probation until
they take out the adoption papers" Old
Picklepuss was saying You must prove
yourself, lad. and it won't be easy 1t will
be harder than you realize" He spoke in that
stern way of his, but somehow Ron knew for
the first time that the superintendent wasn't
stern, hard man after ALL Old Picklepuss
came around the desk and put hand on the
boys head BE polite, obedient and willing
Try hard - and God bless you"
The superintendent stood in the morning
sunlight before the Home a few minutes later
and watched the car taking the boy away
He didn't look back, the old man muttered
That lad has the stuff. But why should be
an old fool hoping for miracles2 Probably a
bad mistake. No lad can take the place of a
dead child. Should've talked them into a
little girl. But the lad has the stuff" Blowing
his nose, the superintendent stomped through
the doorway.
1t was long drive in the car They went
out across the salt flats where there was no
earth or sky.
At Wendover they turned abruptly onto
gravel road, and after awhile onto bumpy
dirt road. And it was all the real stuff Alkali

thing but sparse stunted sage Then grease

stove. Standing on the bicycle propped
against the wall, he could see through the
high windows. Out back was long straw

BY the time he reached the ranch again
he was pretty hungry, and it seemed the
bicycle didn't run so easily. He wondered
about oil. He wanted to keep it running well.
He took it around the house to the back yard,
and, putting it upside down resting on seat
and handlebars, got out the tools and began
taking it apart. He had the wheels off and
was working at the crank hanger when Mr..
Eakin suddenly grabbed him from behind
Ron stumbled and fell, and looked up to
see Mr.. Eakins brown face grim, with a
peculiar whiteness around the jaws so that
the beard stubble looked very black
What's the matter with you?" he demand
ed in great voice What are you trying to
do? Do you want to ruin Jacks bicycle. you

Afterwards, when Ron had tried to explain,
MIR. Eakin said, I'm sorry, boy"
Il thought / was doing the right thing"
"Yes, l know, boy. I'm sorry l lost my
head. It's all right"
0UT it wasn't all right, Ron knew He could
feel it now, and see it in a hundred little ways
when he was watching for it.
When Mr.. Eakin took run down to the
Jorgensen's he didn't ask Ron to come along,
nor when he went in the blackboard out to see
the herds. I'm in little hurry" he said
when Ron wanted to practice milking. He
hadn't said anything about learning to ride
the buckskin pony, for a week or more.
You'd better stay here and help with the

things. He didn't want him around any more.
Ron couldn't eat much. He tried hard, but
the food would grow bigger and bigger as he
chewed, and his throat was dry. did put
in too much salt?" Mrs Eakin would ask; or,
DO you like things cooked another way?"
Then Ron would try harder to eat, but with
out much success
Hey, George" voice bawled one mid
morning "George!"
Hello, Orlin" Mr.. Eakin called, coming
out of the shop with blacksmith tongs in his
hands. Ron, coming around the back of the
house, saw Orlin Jorgensen on pony, driv-
ing bull. Orlin was the boy Ron had seen
driving cows, that first day.
