E#WM###M ny enough lOT you, i nave neltner the
ta9Sa@@& space nor the inclination. And anyway,
all my words would be boiled down TO these few
simple facts
Mamma and daughter Mildred lived together.
Mildred was timid little soul with the right fig
in the wrong surroundings. Mamma had a
will of iron. with face to match. Papa had
kicked off some years beforehand probably
happier than ne t1dd been Win Mamma, no matter
in which direction the good Lord had seen fiji 10
send him.
For some time. Mildred had wanted 10 work.
Mamma said no; that an office was no place for
Mildred, and that papas pension still enabled
them 10 get by. For even longer time Mildred
had wanted 10 get married. On this point, Mamma
didn't object. But she had one tremendous obses.
sion in connection with il
The her Mildred married must have at
least fifteen thousand dollars In cash!
Why fifteen thousand? Well, Mamma had Il
all figured out. and you may be that her
reasons had nothing TO do with love. The correct
engagement ring, the down payment the right
home. the basic insurance, the savings account
for the rainy day. No man without fifteen thou.

dred. With her figure il figured. But no po.
tental hubby had ever possessed the necessary
fifteen grand. And in spite OF Mildred's tears,
Mamma had firmly vetoed each opportunity as
soon as she learned his financial status
In this day and age. you will perhaps wonder
why Mildred didn't kick Mamma in the seat of her
good intentions and eope with the neighborhood
pool shark, or Errol Flynn, or somebody The
answer is that Mildred had always been close TO
her mother. and wouldn't dream OF disobeying
her
There are such daughters. you know Even
though the only place you generally meet them
is in the movies
Came the big day in Niildreds hfe. then. when
She met David Wilkens. They smiled soda

ply. Good afternoon. Good after
noon, Chaplain 49,"
The dark man turned upon his
pillow. The sun touched him
touched the long scar on his cheek,
the why black of his hair, the
hands folded serenely on the COW
erlet.
Through fire and steel he'd
come, his faith unwavering as a
bright banner, Through dread and
danger and the hot breath of war.
But now?
Good afternoon, Doctor" he
said. and he seemed to be waiting
waiting, until the whole sterile
cubicle of the hospital room wait
ed with him.
/ HE Doctor turned away. Out
side the window, the sea sighed -
and spoke of time and space and
the inevitable.
At last the Doctor inquired,
How are you feeling today, Chap
lain?"
But his words were a sheath for
the bitter edge of truth.
I'm stronger" the Chaplain
replied. Only his hands betrayed
his restlessness, moving quickly
over the covers; hands that had
passed out Bibles, and lifted the
wounded, and helped wherever
the help was needed.
I'm stronger, he said again,
and hope burned in his dark face
like fame against the night. He
turned his eyes toward the table
where his Bible lay, opened to
some favored page; his gaze rested
upon the book and then turned
back toward the Doctor.
"A lot of wisdom in that book"
he said after a moment: "a lot of
things I'm going to preach about
when | go back home" Memory
kindled in his eyes. "Congrega-
tons full of good people - most
every one of EN-. But there's a lot

cause there's a lot | never knew

The Dark Shepherd
BY CYNTHIA HOPE AND FRANCES ANCKER
nvsfrufed by kor Goodwin

How the Doctor dreaded
this meeting: He had a
hard duty to perform :.
A Short Short Story
TINE CHAPLAIN lay propped
Il against his white pillows, his
gaze turned outward toward the
open window, and beyond to the
wide blue dome of the October
heavens.
He was humming softly to him
self - a Negro spiritual filled with
the questing melancholy of his
race:
Look dotOn - look d0t0nnn
That lonesome road
Before you tr0pel on -
The Doctor paused in the door
way. His breath went from him in
a hard sigh. Until this morning,
he had hoped. Until this morning,
he had hoped against his better
knowledge that he might have
good news for the Chaplain - for
this dark shepherd of a battered
battalion, whose courage had be-
come a legend.
HE'D hoped he might say, You'll
walk again - you'll walk in your
South, with its honeysuckle and
its white cotton fields. You'll walk
under the blue arch of the sky,
and you'll stand in your pulpit
again and speak to your congre-
CATION. It's only a matter of
time -"
But this morning he'd seen the
X-rays, and that time" would be
a lifetime. 1t would be forever.
And he feared for the colored
Chaplain whose faith had carried
him through battle - for the
longer battle was ahead of him
now.
And today he must be told.
The Doctors footsteps faltered,
and the words - the genial, easy
words - eluded him. He said SIM
