THE ' s. p, fc CIIAPTER XI Continued 12 While Old White still clanged its last call to worship, Pmckney emerged from the front door of the parsonage. He wore a checked suit, neatly pressed. His shoes were polished to a faultless brilliancy. A derby hat, pulled well over the damaged ear, bestowed a final touch of smartness. Placidly unmindful of curious stares. Pink sauntered into the church. If Jonathan Farwell never had urged Pinckney Mulgrew to subscribe to his own religious beliefs or their outward practice, he was none the less touched by this sudden departure from an unvarying Sabbath routine. So much so that his dark eyes betrayed a quick flicker of greeting when they encountered Pink's furtive gaze. Distinctly abashed by the unexpected tribute, Mulgrew devoted himself to a cursory estimate of the day's "gate." His eyes roved farther afield than he was aware. They were attracted to a red hat, held for an instant. A nod and a bright smile were his reward. That Brown dame. And planted where he would have to p;iss her on the way out. The Brady girl was sure to be somewhere here in the crowd. The two of them were swapping letters right along, no doubt. Mul-gre- w Quite to his surprise, Dale found that a letter to Lee was a necessary part of each day's program. They were filled with brief accounts of work, his plans for the future, high hopes. Soon after his labors were started, Dale was moved to forward encouraging word to Lee about "our job." Doctor Payne would be glad to put in a word with some of his mining clients when the time came. There was one man he had particularly in mind. The name was Kimsey or Kelsey. Some sort of an expora-tioengineer who worked all over the country. It sounded rather en couraging. Dale's dutiful reports to his father and an occasional scribble to Pink might have come from different pens. The first were slightly formal. They dealt with courses and faculty associates, expenses and general university activities. When writing to Mulgrew, Dale dwelt upon athletics and the new field house with its big swimming pool. He was keeping in shape by boxing twice a week. "Thanks to you, they accuse me of being a pro- i Joseph MeCord WNU Service. "Farwell, I want you to meet a good friend of mine. This is Mr. Wade Kelsey of Minneapolis." Dale started at the name. Kelsey. So this was the engineer his chief had mentioned. Then aloud he said: "I am glad to meet you, Mr. Kelsey." "What was the name again?" Kelsey's dark brows knitted slightly as he withdrew his hand from the younger man's firm clasp and resumed his seat. "Farwell. sir." "Oh, yes . . ." "Sit down there. Dale." Payne indicated a vacant chair. "Mr. Kelsey has been talking with me about some mineral prospects in northern Ontario. He is considering sending a man up there to make a report. I suggested that you might like to discuss it with him if you haven't anything else in mind for the sum- fessional." Pink prized these missives highly and made shift to answer each one. Doctor John Payne, geologist, was entertaining a visitor in his small office in a corner of the university's Hall of Science. Payne's heavy body relaxed in his swivel chair as he passed his fingers caressingly over his pointed white beard. The nearby window stood wide admitting the soft April air. "It all sounds very interesting, Wade," Payne remarked. "I only wish I were a little younger and had some spare time. I'd like nothing better than to spend a few months up there." "Why don't you?" The man on the other side of the table asked the question with quick incisiveness. There was an unmistakable air of affluence about him. One of the fingers tapping restlessly on his chair arm was banded with a curious scarab ring. Payne shook his bald head and smiled. "Outings like that are for young bloods." "Maybe so, John. But I believe more than ever, after talking today, that this is worth looking into. . Spending some money on . Here's what I have in mind. I'd like to run across a live man who can find his way around and work out an accurate survey. I don't want an expert. They usually know-tomuch at the start. Instead of paying a hundred or so a day to some fellow for a lot of stuff culled out of monographs, I'd rather pay half the money to a kid who can keep his eyes open and his mouth shut. Dependable, you know. If I decide to do it, I'll be gambling with my own money." "I see." Payne nodded thoughtfully. "Well, Wade, I rather think 1 have the man for you. He's open for a position this spring." "Good. Who is he?" "One of our last year's class. He's been here this semester helping me out with some of Lingham's classes. Done very well, too.

"We ought to make it earlier. However, let's figure on that. You should plan to come direct to Minneapolis to see me. Start from there. Just where do you live?" "In New Jersey. Locust Hill." "Then you'll have to come straight up, I think. We'll outfit you and all that. You'll go in by way of Fort William and lose very little time. Can you do that?" "Yes, sir." Dale made the decision with equal promptness. mer." "I thought you might have to go "Indeed I would!" "Oh, yes." Kelsey came out of home first," Kelsey said. his reverie with a start.

"We can thrash out the details when the time comes. There are a few things, however, we'd better go into. I suppose you don't want to leave here until your work is finished." "I would rather not." "When will that be?" "About the first week in June, I E w mm., '- .- V Sf r shrilled "Kid! unbelievingly. Where'd you blow from?" "Phillie and points west," the traveler laughed, seizing the little man's hand with a crushing grip. "Is father here?" "Sure. Sure. He's upstairs. Got a funeral or somethin' on. You'd'a' missed him in a minute. Didn't get throwed out, did you?" "Not a chance." Dale already was bounding up the stairs. "Tell you later," he called back over his shoulder. Jonathan Farwell had heard the voices and was in the upper hall, one of his arms thrust into the sleeve of his long black coat. "Dale! This is a surprise!" His hand came out. "I trust nothing is wrong." "No, sir! Everything's as right as can be, Father. I was going to wire you, then I thought I'd surprise you instead. I've got a job!" he announced exultantly. "You mean that you have left the university?" "Oh, no. But I have to report as soon as school's over and I won't have a chance to get back here. So I thought I would run out for a few days and tell you." "That is news. Where are you going?" Farwell glanced at his watch. "Hudson Bay or not far from there. Pink said something about your going out." "Yes. I have a funeral this afterI am afraid I must leave noon. now." "Who's dead? Anybody I know?" "Miss Emmons. The burial is to take place in the country and I will be away most of the afternoon. Perhaps you will go with me." Dale's face fell. His father must know that he had to see Lee the first minute he could. "I don't believe I can manage it," he began hesitatingly. "You see . . ." "Quite," Farwell answered shortly. "Perhaps you will arrange to be here for dinner with me." "Why, of course I will, Father. I'm anxious to tell you all about it." Dale followed his father down to the door feeling a trifle conscious-strickeat this turn of events. Too bad. But to spend the afternoon at a funeral Lee didn't even know he was in town. He must call her at once and arrange to see her.

Save Ironing. If sheets are hung on the line dripping wet the weight of the water pulls them down and removes most of the wrinkles. They may then be folded neatly without ironing when dry. Do not let hardwood floors get badly worn before having them polished. A little polish on the worn places each week keeps floors always looking well. 1 Indian Relin d "Happiness r Juice.
