That's what we always used to call them, heart hunters, and their minds don't go any further than hunting them, and letting them go as soon as they're caught.” Russell remembered the whole con- versation now as he stepped into the little shadowy schoolroom, low-ceiled, cool, with fern boxes at the windows and bunches of June roses on the desks. Rose was her name, too, he remembered—Rose Phillips. She turned her head now, a quick smlle of welcome and surprise on her face. “Did you -come to wish me good: by?" she asked. Russell could not help but smlle back. He laid his cap on one of the first row desks and stood looking at her as he drew off his gloves. She could not have been over eighteen.

That is a good story of the charm- fng American woman, who was about to partake for the first time of what our English cousins call “high meat.” Pheasant, 1 belleve it was, was about to be served and the butler asked her: “WIil you ‘ave some of it stale or 'igh, ma'am?" And the guest gra- clously replied: “You may serve me a little of both its tall and its eye, please.” | was, Miss Phillips?” he asked, lean- ! are flagged. “Yes,” sald Russell, with almost s sigh, “I came to say good-by.” She waited a minute, chin raised, eyes questioning. “Where did you tell me your home ing over the top of the tall desk, and | fingering a pink rose that was nearest to him. “Vermont.

The city schools won't take you unless you've been through Nor- mal, you know. I like it out here The work was hard, but the victory was o much greater, and I do think the children love me.” Russell caught the little wistful touch in her voice. “The old folks are pecullar, aren't they? Hard to get along with.” “I'm afrald they don't like me very well—do they?” “They say you're a good teacher, but—" Rose walted and looked up at him quickly. Her brown hair was very near, with its soft satiny braids. Be- fore he really meant to, he had tucked the pink rose among them, “It looks much better there,” he added, and wondered why his owa pulses were racing suddenly, like brooks in April. “But what? Please—please tell me?” she pleaded, drawing back, but not removing the rose. “What do they say?” “They say you're a heart hunter.” She leaned back her head and sighed, her hands clasped back of the rose, her eyes looking past him out of the first open window, “They mean the boys, 1 suppose, Nate and the rest. Could I help it? Now, truly, could I, Mr. Russell? You know just what boys are. They'd come here every day, and bring all sorts of things to me that I didn't want. \Why, Lonnie even used to bring me fox pelts for a cloak, of all things. DBoys are always boys, and they get over it so quickly. I was just as nice to them as I could be.” “I am not blaming you—nor them,” sadl Russell a bit unsteadily. *“Only I agree with the deacon's wife that you are a very dangerous and dis- turbing Influence to have around these peaceful parts.” The tears glistened In her eyes. “Oh, you don't really mean that?” she sald pleadingly. “Are you try- ing to tell me I cannot teach here again?” Russell stared awkwardly down at her head, as she leaned it on folded arms, and her shoulders shook with sobs. “I've tried so hard, and the children all love me,” she sald brokenly. *“I didn’t want to go back home at all. I was going to board here all sum- mer, and rest—" Then suddenly it dawned on Neil Russell why he had driven ten miles that afternoon to make all fit and due explanations to the teacher In- stead of writing. He knew just why he had thought of nothing but her | tender lips and dark eyes and low | contralto volce for weeks past. He| knew why he had saved every scrap of writing she had ever sent him and why he carried in an inner pock- et a little tan suede glove he hadl found beside her chair after a board meeting one day.
