It was not worth while here; Burle- son was right! He turned an^ walked away into the hall. He would not think of Pam; that was over! It was like so many thinprs in hjs lifeâ€" he had been swept away by adverse current.. "That's over!" he thought bitter- ly making his way toward the door. Then someone called his name. "Mark â€" Mark Grant!" It was her voice and he stood still. The blood rushed back to his heart again and set it racing. She â€" "Don't go â€" " she almost sobbed, caught herself and tried to speak firmly â€" "until I tell you â€" " He bent his head, looking down at her. "What can you tell me now?" "That I'm still your friend!" "How can you? You heard your uncle â€" it's true, too, the accusa- tion and the sentence were â€" what they say." "I know!" her voice broke. "Come in hereâ€"'" she motioned to an alcove room â€" "I â€" I must ask you â€" " "The jade god â€" tell me about it," she said quickly, "it means some- thing â€" it meant something to you?" * * * "It meant everything. My uncle was a collector of curiosities: it â€" wis his fad â€" he was rich," Mark wet his dry lips. "They thought I coveted his money, but I didn't I could work. He was odd, crab- bed, quarrelsome, but he was never unkind to me â€" we got on. I was with- him that last day when he bought that jade god.

H« said he was going to give it to Mr. Burleson. I remember that now; your uncle was his friend and business associate, and, as you know, a collector, too. Your uncle has it, it must have been given to him after I left my uncle â€" before the murder â€" don't you see the point? That little thing would have made my alibi com- plete. Your uncle testified against me, and he stood so high, even then, that a word . from him â€" " Mark's gesture expressed all the hopeless futility of his young bat- tle to save himself. "If Uncle Herbert knewâ€" ah, I'm sure he would have told!" Pam exclaimed. "He's a violent tempered man, he's queer, but he's just. I think he didn't know." "It's certain lie won't tell now; I saw that in his face â€" when he smashed that green gnd." "Oh, I can't tliink he knew!" she persisted. Mark did not an.'swer tliis; he stood looking at her silently. Like everything else in his life thi.s was to end. But h6 wanted to remem- ber her as she stood there. She looked so young and brave! She was brave to call herself his friend. Even in the puxzlc of her thoughts of her uncle she felt hi;* eyes, they drew licrs, .she looked up like a child, tears misting, lips tremulous. "Oh," she gasped: "I hated Landon â€" tlie coward!'' He smiled. Her hot tone cham- pioned him! she was his friend. "You know everything now," ho said gently, "I was going to tell you all bnt I couldn't â€" it's not true! you believe that?" * * :K She nodded, spociiilcss. "It will never be cleared up, I'm afraid. There's only one thing to do: I've got to make a new life and a new name for myself. I'm going nut west, as they say. 1 don't know how far â€" as far as I can, I fancy. I'd like to feel free, to draw long breaths of freedom; I've had fifteen years of â€" the other tliinj;!" "Oh, it's cruel," she murnuired. "I've got to go," lie whispered at last. She nodded, looking down, her lips drawn close together. He drew his breath hard.

Clarke Was there ever a time when we had so much reason to be thankful for weather conditions? Just think of those mountains of snow that lined highways, byways, and bank- ed almost every farm building in the country. Now it has all gone and without leaving any serious flood conditions in its wake. Day after day I look around and marvel â€" and this chronicle records the phenomena. One week I write of inow-blocked roads, the next of robins warbling, daffodils budding, pussy-willows bursting, yes, and even of swamp frogs singing. Never, since we started farming, have we known spring to come so suddenly or so early. * * • l" have been specially glad to have better road conditions because you see I have been on my annual job of canvassing for the Red Cross. At least that is what I am supposed to be doing but every- where I go I generally combine canvassing with a nice little visit. One place I called last week the farmer had a horse to sell and I had to see it so I could tcl! Part- ner about it. As a matter of fact I looked, not at one horse, but five, and had I been the farmer it would have been a real grief to part with any of them. .A^t another farm there was a new dog, and was he ever a beauty! Just the kind I have always wanted but never had â€" an English collie with long pointed nose â€" just like Lassie of movie fame. This fellow paced around the kitchen table just as Lassie paced hack and fortli in her cage â€" you see he was a year old and the place where I visited had been his home only for two d.ays. But he was rjuile happy. He spoke for his supper, shook hands, played "dead dog'', jumped up on a chair, and sat down when he was told. If only I could have brought him home with me. * * « .^t two more farms I visited with baby chickens. But I wasn't so anxious to adopt Ihem as we shall have plenty of our own in a day or Iwo. .Another call resulted in a dis- cussion on consolidated school areas and at yet another farm I was asked to sample oatmeal cook- ies fresh from the oven â€" which wasn't any hardship at all. .\nd of course -with each visit the Red Cross was enriched. No need to tell anyone these days what the Red Cross is nor how it functions. I just say "I am collecting for the Red Cross" and tliat's all there is to it. Unfortunately all my canvassing was not with farm folk whose ni.ain interest was in their chickens and livestock. There was also stark tragedy. One farmer gave me a really generous contribution. Half an liour later he received word Uis-aniiingly innocent but lull ot feminine guile. Pattern 45.U* has the new flare sleeves, flirty skirt ruffle; easy on-and-off button front.
