Cissy said slowly: “The il wells need watching too. Dad can’t be there at this time. You can and should be on the job.” “There’s a good man in charge,” defensively. “No man is good enough to do his own work well and another fellow’s too.” Because this was true, it nettled him. A frown darkened his face. “You sound like an oracle or some- thing.” “Better listen to me then.” “Oh—for Pete’s sake, Cissy!” He grinned down at her as suddenl: as he had frowned, “Don't let's quarrel: Not ‘egrudging me the BLAN arr ae FERG tin iche | “It's al! the same,” contemptu- | ously. “Someone told me an old |saw, the other day—" not for worlds would she have him know she questioned and listened avid- ly to all the information she could get— “Something about the Green Spring Valley— —‘Land of blue grass and blue blood— Where horses bow only to Good- loes and Goodloes bow only to God!’ or some blah like that.

She turned her amazing green eyes full upon him and said above a torturous tightness in her chest: “It’s a girl that’s keeping you Don't lie, Rube.” He had no ‘ntention of lying. He simply hadn't analyzed, even for his own conviction, just what was keeping him here away from a busy world that was beginning to bow to him. He stood and looked at her a bit dazedly, as though she had rudely awakened him from a “IC's @ girl that’s keeping you here.
