Chapter 22 Walk In The Woods MiCBAEL, coming home after _ a harrowing day at the office, decided to leave Christabel at the Garage nearest the campus and walk across to the Horseshoe. As he explained to Tuck later, Chris- tabel’s congenital defect’ had cropped up again. Her congenital defect was a certain tendency. toward collecting, ih some mys- terious and wholly puzzling man- ner, rust in her tank. No one, not even the blackest and most Gay, mechanic could explain it. ‘hen it happened, when sufficient of the rusty particles had climbed warily into her bronchial tubes, Christabel coughed and chok and spluttered like an old lady with the asthma and finally re- fused to go until some ministerii spirit had blown down her throu Michael passed through the pine grove and turned to the right on the path that ‘cd directly to the back gate of the Murchison house. As he did so he saw before him on the path the flutter of a light skirt and thought instantl? that it was Tuck, come to meet him. But be- fore he could make out the identity of the skirt’s owner she had left the path and turned off among the trees along the river bank. So Michael turned off the path too, into the trees at the left, and @odged quickly from tree to tree, trying to keep Tuck—as he thought —in sight and not letting her see him. Apparentiy she was out for an afternoon constitutional. From where she had left the path it was nearly a quarter of a mile to the edge of the river. but she traversed it quickly — now and then he caught the gleam of the sun on her dress as he followed warily. At last she reached the edge of the wood and was walking out in the open; and Michael halted as he came to the edge of the shelter, and stood; there behind a big pine watching her, for he had realized at his first clear glimpse of her that this was not Tuck. but an older woman with whitening hair -- Alix Lissey. He was about to turn and slip silently off to the path again, having nc de- sire to talk with her or be seen by, her; then he saw what she was doing. Miss Lissey was making her way through the undergrowth and over the rocks very slowly; bent double as if she had lost something and % earnestly for it. But se part of her searching was that she was doing it with one of those large peaging. glasses to| be found on most elderly desks. “Sermons in stones and good in everything.” Michael muttered. Once in a while she got right down on her knees and sutveyed the rocks with extreme care: and again she would stand and stare ahead of her for several moments before progressing a step. “Now what in the devi! chael ask chin, “is she looking for?” He moved silently pe the wood as Miss J.issey moved. It was slow going. Eventually she had reached the end of the stretch of ground in which she seemed to be interested. Here a larger gully came down into the river, its banks thickly wooded, and she did not descend into it. Rather she dropped the glass into her pocket and went out to the very edge of the river cliff, which here was sheer and stark, gray rock dropping straight into the river. She shaded her eyes and looked up-stream. along the bank. She looked down-stream. Then she = earnestly across the river, deep and swift here, and widening after the rapids above.

Her hand was pressed to her breast; her face was chalk white. There was utter horror in her eyes. She saw him. Afterward he re- alized that she could not ‘ibly have recognized him in that mo- ment; what she saw was a man, a@ blur of white face and dark clothes, lurking there among the trees spy- ing on her. The sight unnerved her completely. She t a shaking hi over her mouth, but she made no attempt to run; rather she stood there as the rabbit might have stood, ted with a snake. Michael remembered that, too, af- terward. He stepped out from under the “Sorry if I frightened you, Miss Lissey,” he sad apolorelialy She stared at “I thought you were my wif out fora alk, and Tfollo: ca your he explained, as she sail seemed unable to talk. She dropped her hand. The rouge on her cheeks stood out in two brilliant hectic spots, ‘It’s a beautiful day, isn't it?” Michael continued, stepping out beside her. She drew a deep breath and straightened her. lers, “I thought you were a +a bear,” she said A “Bear? are there bears in these woods?” “Why not?

That’s what you were doing: ‘More ied upon than spying,” Michael paraphrased to himself in a*mutmur: She had the grace to flush, 4 “What I am doing is my own af- fair,” she said with acerbity. _.“Certainly,” Michael agreed po- litely. “If I choose to come out for a juiet walk in the woods by myself, See.no reason why I should be ac- cused of handed!” “Ot course not, Miss Lissey.” His eyes, perhaps Papen E strayed to the handle of the read- ing £ which protruded from the pocket of her jacket, She put her Bane ver it hastily, and turned defiantly away from him. _ Michael gazed out across the river. “It’s rather a beautiful view, isn’t it?" he inquired courteously. Across the river the low hills rose smoothly, crested with dark pines and (Pace of poplars. Far to the right the smoke of the city rose slowly into the summer air: on the hills straight across were innumer- able white sheep dotting the green Fak One white cur! of smoke rose azily from the chimney of the old stone, house on the promontory, set in a déep grove of dark green; ne only other sign of suspen habi- ation was the low compact group pa sarin buildings on the hills at the eft. Miss Lissey snorted. Michael turned to her suddenly. “Did you send that letter?” he asked. “What letter?” “The one about the diamonds?” “Diamonds?” - Michael did not elucidate. He re- garded the shéep gloomily. . “Tdon’t know. what you are talk- ing about,” she broke out at him. “never in all my life met such an objectionable. young man. Dia- monds, indéed! ¥ should 1 write a letter about diamonds? whom? What diamonds?” ‘Lady’s Maid’ “PROFESSOR Murchison’s dia- monds,” Michael said gently, gad looked at ‘er. There was not a trace of confu- sion on her face. “I didn’t know he had any,” she said. “His wife’s, then?” “Hig wife’s? She hasn’t got any diamonds, that little upstart! Where would a lady’s maid get diamonds? Diamonds, indeed!” Michael raised his brows, “Lady's maid? Oh. come now. Miss Lissey!”: She pressed her lips together, “You're clever, aren’t you? Very clever.” Her eyes went over him Swiftly, over his thick black hair, his ‘Keen gray eyes, his firm mouth; over his broad shoulders and his slim height. She cléver, Michael] Fo said a little wearily. There were a thousand wrin- kles un@er her eyes and around her mouth. Michael was suddenly sor- ty for her. “Supposing you tell me all about it, Miss Lisse7,” he said gently. “This isn’t a woman’s business. Tel] me what you know, and then ... gO away and take a holiday. Forget it.” She turned or. him angrily again, “lam not going,” she said. There was a certain astonish- ment in his glance, at her fierce- ness, “You neeédn’t pretend you don’t understand me.

The ability required of base- ball umpires, it has been decid- {Mr. Mercer, president of the baseball umpires’ association, jafter spending 24 years in select- | H and developing umpires, ‘came to that conclusion long ago. } As stated above first qualifica- | tions are dignity and poise, fol- | lowed by firmness. The ump’s knowledge of the game and its; Tules is a secondary quality. That can be acquired. ‘Must Impress His Power “The most important function of an umpire”, declares Mercer, | “is to convey to the public the moment ‘he appears on the field the feeling that he is boss on the} field and that he will conduct the yattair in a satisfactory manner for the fans as well as for the players. Unquestionably that faculty of inspiring confidence } must be born in a man. It is somewhat like natyral leader- ship, that cannot be described, but is always felt unmistakably. } “Another quality is fearless- | néss, a willingness to do what is! right and proper regardless of | the consequences. The one dan- ger is a tendency to be unduly! autocratic and officious. That is| just as objectionable to the pub- | lic as ignorance and, indecision. Best Umps Never Played ‘The two greatest umpires of all times, Bill Klem and Billy Evans, never played baseball, neither did Tom Sheridan or} Lynch of the older set. Most of ‘the ball players have failed be- cause they have a knowledge of the game but lack other quali- fications. In most cities former ball play- | ers are picked to umpire and most have been failures because | they did not have poise and fear- | lessness. Umpires must put snap and} energy into their work. Be on top of every play. Never lose sight of the ball. Use his best judgement about continuing a} game in bad weather, darkness | or for any other reason. Do not} permit a moderate shower or an argument to stop it. Protect the ‘public by playing nine innings, or if a time limit is set, be sure | to carry a watch, “for you are} paid to see that the rules are carried out”. A game is requir- ed to go five innings to count in the standings, and wait full 30 minutes before calling a game on account of rain. Keep “your watch properly regulated and} never start a game without hav- | ing a full understanding with | both captains about the ground Tules”, b rules. to the public”, writes. “Do not permit ground Tules that conflict with playing rules. Hustle the game at all times, urge the players to run to and from their positions be-| tween innings: When two clubs agree, ona certain time to stop @ game, anhounce same to the fans. Your decision on a play is absolutely final, when it comes to a judgement play, and the less you explain and argue the bet- ter. An appeal can only be made on a question of interpreta- tion of rules, and then only by the captain of a club.
