H24, Western Newipaper Dalon.) TT HAD stood flapping In every wind A for several years. Just a pole, with a man's old suit about It, and a man's old hat nailed to the head, the wooden head of it. An admirable scarecrow. It kept the birds away. It was a work of genius. But It frightened Farmer Qlllls' young wife. She couldn't bear to go near It. She asked OUlls to take it down, and he laughed at her. For the matter of that, many things frightened Bessie Olllls about the lone; ly fann. She had been used to city life, gentler ways than her husband's uncouth ones. And he had forced her to marry him. Some hypnotic power, perhaps. She never ceased to be afraid of him. Frightened to death, she admitted to herself. Even the lone-ly nights when Gillla was away seemed preferable to the nights when he was there with her. That was why she welcomed it when he took a man to help and live In the house young Summers a city boy, like herself. Told that be must get out on a farm If he was to regain his health. He worked all right Farmer Glllls saw to that. "Hell be company for you, Bessie," Qlllls said, with a grim smile, and then she was more afraid than ever of her husband. For weeks she hardly dared speak to young Summers. "What's the matter? Don't you like himr asked Glllls, with his rough laugh. "I brought him for company for you, seeing as you took a turn against me." "I I love you." lied Bessie. Glllls laughed long and loud at that He seemed to take a diabolical pleas-ure In throwing the twe together. He would drive Into town In the evenings more than he used to, and when he was gone young Summers and Bessie Gllhs would seize the opportunity to talk to each other. What things they found to say I Is It to be wondered at that love stole in between them? They refused to ad-mit It for a long time until the eve-ning when they found themselves in each other's arms. And they swore never to kiss again; and that night when Qlllls came home he looked Into their faces and laughed and laughed. The man was a devil. He seemed to divine everything. At last he drove them to the point of desperation. They agreed to go away together. It was less their love that was driving them than Glllls' laugh. They fixed an evening when Glllls would be In town, the evening of mar-ket day. They had two hundred do-llarsSummers' earnings. ' Bessie would take nothing but what she had brought with her. All the preceding day they were looking forward to the farmer's departure. They did not sleep that night. And the next morning QIUIs, with bis laugh, announced that be meant to take young Summers late market with him. "You'll Urn how to sell and how to buy," he told Mm, laughing. "Guess you kin spare Mm for the day,. Bes-sie?" The Iwi rirnv off torether In th buggy on the nine miles to tewn. It would be dark when they got back. Bessie and Summers bad bad a few hurried words together. They agreed to wait till the farmer went Into town aeit time. A love like theirs ceuld wait. And all that day Beesle waited In an agony that grew and grew, and terrific forebodings. And every time she looked out of the door her eyes seemed to fix themselves upon the flapping scarecrow. But how she bated It I It grew dark, and at last she heard the sound of the returning buggy. Thankful that the long suspense was ovei, she weut Into the kitchen and began bringing out the dinner. In the middle of It the door opened. Olllls stood alone on the threshold, and laughed. She shuddered. "Where's Summers 7" she almost screamed. "Him? Oh, he's gone away." "Gone away!" Suddenly she saw spots of blood on Qlllls' coat And she ran to him frantically. "Where Is her she cried. The farmer's eyes contracted to mere silts of light. He gripped her arm. "You go look at the scarecrow, Bes-sie I" he said, with awful malevolence. And It was Bessie who began to laugh yet not Bessie, but only a thing that rocked and rocked upon the chair In wild abandonment of mirth. If The House ft They if Wanted By MYRA CURTIS LANE 6. U14. Waatarn Nwppr Ualoa.) OMIEY couldn't get It the Wards couldn't that little house on the outskirts of the town. They had liked It at first glimpse of it but they couldn't get it The Cravens, rich meut dealers, got it What busi-ness had the Cravens with the little bouse? Craven explained to Ward one day on the train. But first about the house. It wus a hundred years old. It hud one of those gar-dens that one dreams about and hard-ly ever sees. And it had that atmos-phere of all the previous occupants that made it what It was. It was the generations that had been born there, loved there, married, and passed on that gave It its unique feeling which the Cravens could never understand. Then what business had they tak-ing it away from the Wards? The Wards were Just too late.' They had In these days of bouse scarcity they had to take a little yellow bungalow nearly opposite the old house. A star-ing thing with a lot of sparse grass growing about It Not a privet hedge. Not a flower or tree. Drab, ugly. Mrs. Ward cried when they bought the bungalow after Craven had laughed Ward out of the little house. "It's Just too dreadful for words," said little Mrs. Ward, "that the Cra-vens should have that dear little house which we want so much and they can never appreciate. And we've got to have this hideous "Cheer up," said Ward. "Perhaps he'll die." "Oh, I wish he would I" snapped Mrs. Ward viciously. "Or maybe he'll get tired of the place. I can't for the life of me see why a man like Craven, who deala in meats and looka It should want a little place like that." "I Just know they'll never get tired of it," sobbed Mrs. Ward. "I Mrs. Craven on the street today and she told me she adored the little house Just to spite me. There was such a malicious look on her face when she told me." The winter passed. Once a gleam of hope came to the Wards when Cra-ven was reported dangerously HI with pneumonia. How they watched the doctor's car I They had really reached the stage of wanting Craven to die. But he got well. And then, when he had begun to commute again, he ex-plained to Ward on the train : "Queer little place, more like a working man's home than a gentle-man's, Ward. But I've Just been waltf Ing for building costs to fall before pulling it down. It's going te be the best Investment In this town, that cor ner. I'm going to build a gentleman's home there." Ward repeated this to his horrified wife. And a few weeks later carts ar-rived with sand and cement workmen began the demolition. It was hideous to see the little house being pulled re-lentlessly to pieces. It was hideous to see the little garden smothered under heaps of sand. Bit by bit, timber by Umber, the old house was taken down. And In Its place a glaring monstrosity of a "gen- - tleman'i house" began to arise. At last, when It was clear that noth-ing could save the little house, Mrs. Ward collapsed. She was ill for days, and she was only the shadow t her-self when she came downstair again. "Dear, let's get out of here," she said. "Sell the bungalowf "Yes. I shall never be happy here. Resides I haven't told you, but " Ward folded her In his arms ten-derly when she told him. It was a solemn and sacred moment for them. "But wherever we go we shall take with us the memories of the house we wanted and can never have," said Ward. "What was there about that little house that meant so much to us?" "The atmosphere, the sense of the people who had lived and died there." "I suppose in the beginning It was just an ordinary house? Those peo-ple had to make it what It became. Listen, dear, Tve got an Idea I don't know what youll think of It. Suppose we Just stayed here and made this bungalow like the little house with a garden, and children. Don't you think, loving each other, we could T" "1 I think we could," answered his wife gently. "Because It Is the peo-ple who make their houses, Isn't UP IN THE JUSTICE'S COURT In and for Tenth Precinct, Salt Lake County, State of Utah: SUMMONS J. J.

EDITORIAL LET'S STICK TOGETHER Some few days ago the em-ployees of one of the mines of the camp met at a public hall and discussed questions of vital interest to people " throughout the camp. It would mean much to the betterment of the commu-nity if these meetings were held more regularly iand matters talk-ed over. If monthly meetings were held at which one or more speakers were invited to discuss public questions or to have a joint debate on issues to be vot-ed upon, there could be no harm done if rightly managed. The township is one of the smallest units of government, yet in many towns the folks liv-ing in it are not united. ' Town unity would do good, yet there are so many who do not have the community spirit. There ought to be a board of directors to manage and arrange programs for these meetings, so they would not be lop-sid- ed or made to please one clique or one faction. If the whole township' were taxed a small sum to hold such meetings, the chances are that everyone in camp would take far more interest in the matter so that meetings would be well at-tended and results obtained that could never otherwise happen. hall we get out and boost for a working man's community club?
