In-such cases, however, the tim- ber exploiters should be compelled te plant at least one tree for e1 tree-cut down.

Would you like to see it?” “Please,” Ethel said, that strange tug pulling at her harder, What he was saying to her wag no oft- repeated ‘or cheaply told tale, she was sure.

He considered it for a moment, holding it in the palm of his bare hand; they were proceeding slowly side by side. “Being a woman's ring,” he said, “I supposed it was my mother’s—whoever she was and Wowever she happened to give it, and me, to Noah Jo. So I just kept the ring and tried not to think too much about her. Then the war came along; and I went.” “In 19172” \ Ronee { “T got in our own army then; but Thad the luck to go just after the: Marne, with the Canadians, I spent the winter of 1915-1916 in Lon- don, I was just a kid, tempo- rarily on crutches, with a slight! wound. ‘ “All.

They were still following, mechani-| cally and without’ effort, the wide course of the old St. Florentin road. “>. stalked a lot about it;” Lou- trelle was saying when next she was conscious of hearing. “Somebody in that room seemed to| know just about everything con- cerning me.

But he wired back) not to come to England but to get. passage to America; said he was| writing in explanation. This letter came two days later.” i He halted again and put his hand, into his coat pocket, drawing out an envelope similar to the other and| with English stamp and postmark. Ethel recognized the same vigorous handwriting. i Dear Barne; If you've never taken anything on trust before; take this from me, old) top.

But you can sec to yourself. ; Ethel looked up. “Did. anything follow this?” “In explanation from Hus? No.” He put his letter away and pro- ceeded in silence. After a few min- utes, the trail left the road abruptly and vanished between the trees to the south. “We're coming to an old lumber camp,” Ethel said a little later. “No one's there now, but we keep one cabin sound and stocked with fire- Loutrelle pushed ahead and thrust open the weather-beaten door. He removed his skis and Ethel’s also and stood them against the wall. Loutrelle closed the door, and a single, rudely glazed window lighted the interior. A telephone instru- nent was upon the wall. ‘There was dry wood and brush under the chimney, and Loutrelle struck a match.and started a blaze. After a few minutes, the bell rang. “Ah! Ethel!” her grandfather's voice recognized her with irritable welcome. “So you did come, did you?” Ethel made the obvious response and inquired about him and about her grandmother, inquires which he ignored. i “You're at: the cabin at last, 4 suppose. Alone?” Ethel scarcely hesitated before re- plying “No”; but her grandfather noticed the hesitation. “No!” he mocked her quickly. “Why didn’t you want to tell me that; who's with you? How many?” “A Mr. Loutrelle, grandfather.” “Who's a Mr. Loutrelle?. A lawyer you're bringing, or one of your creditors?” “No, grandfather. We just came this far together, that’s all. He’s on his. way to Resurrection Rock.” There was delay now at the other end of the wire and Ethel, as she waited, could hear the mumble—but not the words—of the old man talk- ing to himself. “No one goes to the Rock, Ethel,” he said at last aloud. “If he“doesn’t know that, surely you must have told him. Bring him here with you, my dear. I would like to see him. Bring him here with you; do you understand ?” “[ understand, grandfather,” Ethet said. % “Bring him here with you,” the old man ordered again and Ethel heard ‘him hang up the receiver. Ethel crossed to*the door and, opening it, looked for Loutrelle. He chad tramped off through the snow, without putting on his skis, and evidently. was. exploring one of the ‘old, dilapidated shacks on, the other. ‘side of. the road. w “Sam Green Sky, an Indian, is coming to meet us witha team,” she announced. “I told my grandfather that you were with me, and he in- vited you to St. Florentin,” ‘ “Do you want me to go with you?” he asked her directly. “No,” she replied frankly. “That is, if I were you, I'd go right out to Resurrection Rock.” She had not considered at all what she said before she spoke her words —as one’s words sometimes do—had surprised her by betraying a feeling which had not yet formed itself in her thought. “You may have to look. out when you get there,” She found the warn- ing from Loutrelle’s friend iterating itself again.to her. “Some one slept in that shack across there—under hardly half a roof and with no door,’ Loutrelle remarked. A queer, shivery thought possessed her.‘ She did not speak it; but Lou- trelle did. “Wonder if he might be Bagley?” (To Bo Continued) Secure your reservations early for the Roof Garden Dance atop the McKenzie hotel tonight.
