Some envious person had named it that when old Colonel Cor-bi- n built it toward the close of the Mexican war and brought his bride there. And the name stuck. Judge Corbin had been born in the old house and now. at eighty odd, was as straight as a ramrod, fresh of complexion, and with keen eyes. Ji'dge Corbin lived alone in the big i;ouse with his servants. He had retired from the bench more than twenty years before when his wife died and had been alone since his quarrel with his only son.

IRVING KING the fall of 1939, a fjvlorsvillc Page 9 N-- Ytk For four long years they have been .carrying on the war alone, grateful for American aid and hoping for the time when they might be American allies in the war against unprovoked aggression. The Chinese in America, most of them now children or of the orgrandchildren or even iginal settlers, have always been loyal American citizens at heart, or in fact, or both. By their honesty, which is proverbial, many of them have built up extensive businesses, serving all comers faithfully and well. Trie National Dollar Stores are such an institution. They are owned and managed by American citizens of Chinese descent. Their owners and managers are loyal Americans, possibly even more determined in their opposition to Japan than most others because, for years, their kinsmen in the homeland have been victims of Japanese atrocities. Today the National Dollar Stores stand ready to serve all Americans and, as always, make every endeavor to be worthy of their patronage. great-grandchildr- marrying the girl his father had selected for him. The son had died in South America years ago. To shake off his lonesomeness the judge began, at the age of eighty-on- e, to write an elaborate treatise on the Code Napoleon. Finding he needed a secretary he advertised for one and as a result now employed a young man of twenty-one- , bearing the name of Lloyd Foster. But the young man who traveled under the name of Lloyd Foster was, in reality, the judge's grandson, Alvin Corbin, whose father the old man had cast out. "Lloyd" and the judge got along fairly well together. Remarkably well, in fact, considering that the judge was dictatorial and irascible In and Lloyd was only twenty-one- . d such an isolated and place as Corbin's Folly from which the judge allowed him to be away but seldom it is next door to a miracle that "Lloyd" saw enough youthful specimens of the feminine gender to fall in love with one, but en little-visite- he did. Her name was Mary Cranston and she was as pretty as a picture much prettier than many pictures. She was governess in a family living a few miles away from Corbin's Folly; an orphan without money. So was "Lloyd." Mary and "Lloyd" went into session as a committee of ways and means. Their living expenses were nil now. But if they were married they would, of course, have to set up housekeeping for themselves and it would take their combined salaries to support them in anything like the style and comfort in which they desired to live. They would have to go on working after they were married. had an idea. Then "Lloyd" "What's the matter with my asking the judge for a raise?" said he. "That would help out some." "Do," answered Mary; "I am sure you are worth a thousand times what he is paying you the tightwad!" "Mary, Mary, don't speak that way about the judge, please, beWell, there is causebecause. something I was going to tell you before we were married and I might as well tell you now." And he did the whole story: Who he was and all about it. "I don't know why I took the position at Corbin's Folly in the first place." he concluded; "the homing pigeon instinct, I guess. And now do you know, I have really become fond of the old Judge in spite of his cranky ways. But if he had any suspicions of who I was he would show me the door in short order. I wonder what he will say when I tell him I want to get married." Wht-n- , the next day, "Lloyd" told the judge of his desire, praising Mary to the skies, of course, he was prepared for an explosion but not for the calm, meditative manner in which the judge regarded him; finally breaking a lung silence by saying: "Too young. You oui;ht not to think tf marriage for five years yet. Bring the girl over here and ht nic talk with her." "Lloyd" brought Mary to the interview, and when she had told all their plans, the juc'nc turned to his desk, saying; "Too young. Too imprartical. No. It won't do Good day." "Lloyd" came back from seeing the weeping and disappointed Mary "Judge off ancry and rebellious. Corbin." he said. "I am going to marry Mary Cranston whether you like it er not. I don't think it Is a matter In which you have any right to interfere!" "Uh, you don't?" snarled the iu are fired." jule. "Well. "Lloyd" fell into a troubled sleep at last that night and the first gray l.gl.l t,f dawn was struggling through his windows when he suddenly became aarc of someone standing by his bedside and avoice saying: "Alvin!

The outlook was not very bright for a small group of men in the latter part of 1902 who had decided to establish in MurFraray an Aerie known as the ternal Order of Faglcs No. 760. Fraternal benefit societies were new and the people skeptical 1 and extremely suspicious. Opposition and discouraging setbacks seemed to frustrate evinery effort. But these men, spired by that great magic word "Fratcrnalism", were confident that they had found something of real benefit and advantage to their fellow men. fulThey were determined to fill their purpose against any odds. Gradually they interested others in their cause and it som became necessary to obtain a regular meeting place. More men became interested and the membership began to increase they had found an Aerie to their liking. The Aerie, in its process of bcinu organized, soon outgrew its quarters, and a few years later the Aerie moved into its own Fraternal Hall.
