Its growth means much—more employment in winter months, more wealth to bear taxes, more North Dakota money kept at heme. It is apparent that the railroads ought to benefit | H by the increase in business which the development of the industry would contribute in ways other than the actual It would appear at the outset that é the lignite industry would be a great aid to the railroads, iH in furnishing tonnage for the lines in the winter when other tonnage is perhaps lessened. The railroads now ask that the lignite coal rates be in- creased 40 to 60 per cent. It is evident that such an increase would be a severe blow to the industry. Not only would it perhaps increase the cost of coal to consumers and retard : the extension of the market within the boundaires of North { ~ Dakota, but it would seriously interfere with the campaign 3 of the lignite industry to develop markets at greater dis- ; stances than ever before. . ‘ * Theslayman is not in a position to counteract any state- may make as to the actual cost of hand- ling the tonnage and the receipts. Nor can it be contended ; that the northwestern railroads are making an unusual profit, from the evidence given before various railroad regulating freight tariff on lignite. : “ments the railroad i bodies. But it does appear that the railroads ought to be inter- 1 ested in the growth of the lignite industry. The railroads H of the Northwest ought to be more interested in its growth ' than in the coal industry of Illinois or Pennsylvania. The railroads themselves ought to be hesitant in asking for an : increase which would throttle an infant industry with great potentialities. i It is to be hoped that the lignite coal operators will be t joined by commercial bodies in making a determined fight | j against the increa selves. + = 1923.

He waved a hand to- ward the bedecked tree. “That's how all of us give—what we don’t need, what we don’t even want.” He paused. “You’re a. good man, Doctor, and, honestly, what would you say tomorrow if your wife told you she’d sold her. rings and given the money to. the poor?” “Why, I—” “You’d* say she was crazy.’ “But there’s no necessity—” “Oh, yes, there is.

Wouldn't be it be more fitting to preach from the text, ‘Glory to God, in the Highest!’” “And on carth, peace, good will toward meri,” Daniel added. “Yes,” agreed Dr. Wadham, de- lighted at what he interpreted as an acceptance of the suggestion. “You might say “There are many kinds of “But there aren’t,” interrupted Daniel. “There is physical peace,” went on the rector, “peace that came with the end of this cruel war.” “There is no pea abruptly. ‘There only’ fear—and hate—-and vanity—and and envy, and greed—of men and _na- tions. There are only people preying on one another,’ and a hungry church. No, doctor, my text will be ‘And Peter followed afar off.’”” < Daniel looked through ‘ the soft | shadows into, the distance! F “I don’t understand,” ~ Dr. Wad+ ham stammered. ? “We all follow—afar off.” Daniel's answer was as abstract -as though Dr. Wadham: was not there.’ Some- thing strange, something glorious, shone in his eyes. “Follow whom?” id Daniebl ized version by s The men stood face to face for a moment, ‘both tense.

His voice calmed. “It’s all right, doctor,” he said. . ~ He reached for Dr. Wadham's hand and shook it. He was smiling —smiling sadly. * CHAPTER VI 5 Rejected Dr. Wadham welcbmed the “tn- trance of Clare Jewett. He was not alone in that. It was relief for one, solace for the other. “Well, Miss Jewett,” the rector beamed. “I thought you'd gone long ago.” “No,” Clare answered with an air of fatigue. “I’m on my way now.

She was irritated. “I hope I never see another doll!” she said petulantly, Then she no- . ticed that Gilchrist had not spoken. “Anything on your mind, Dan?” she asked. “What do you—” he started, look- ing up quickly. “I mean anything special to do.” “Oh—no,” he responded, relieved. “Take me home,” she commanded gently. The quiet smile came back. “I'm getting my Christmas pres- ent early,” he said, reaching for his hat. “Where's your coat?” she asked absently. 5 “Outside— That-is, I lent it to a friend. Oh, I’ve got ‘another somewhere.” “But you can’t do out without a coat. It’s cold.” She glanced at her wrist watch. “Anyway, I told a taxi man to come at, half-past 4. That’s the worst of not having a cdr. Well, we may as well sit down.” She was watching him closely. “What's the matter with you, Dan?” she said at length. “Nothing important,” he said, dodging her eyes. “There will be if you insist on go- ing around without an overcoat.” She looked at him narrowly. “You're too generous.” His eyes were far away. “I say,"* she repeated, “you're too generous.

Yes.” “Why?” . “Well, there’s the strike, and a good deal of unemployment, and I've got so much. Why—I’ve got you!” He turned to her eagerly. “Let’s not talk about that now,” she said, rising. Then suddenly her face changed. It took on something of the obscurity the shadows were giving to the great .empty church room. “Yes, let's” she decided sit- ting down beside him age ‘You're so changed. I hardly know you. We don’t seem to want the same things any more.” “What do you want, Clare?” he asked earnestly. Play copyrighted, 1922, in the i @:. England.
