Re- member, boys, you are to look out for the girls and help them over the rough places. . The boys grinned sheepishly and the little girls giggled together until the group straightened out into a long line across the schoolyard. It was only a light snow that had fallen and with every thump of their struck the frozen ground beneath. In the woods the trees creaked in the light wind and sent powdery whiteness down to sting their faces. Now and then a rabbit mxrrledl across the snow or a squirrel poked bright eyes out of some safe retreat. In places where the sun struck warm- ly one could glimpse trails of green and dots of red where the partridge berries grew. Presently Moliy ‘urned Into an old wood road that led no one remember- ed where. It is great fun to explore unknown roads and all the children skipped joyfully. Undoubtedly they would come out into some SnOWY field and that meant a tramp through the untracked whiteness—perhaps !startling a flock of quall—over fences or under them. A barbed wire fence enarled across their way and they got over it and under it gomehow, and found that they had lost the wood road. This was all the better Suddenly a laurel hedge loomed be- i fore them and with a wild whoop the | group separated and broke through. Miss Molly smiled and trailed after ! them When she locked around for her ! pupils ¢he saw to her dismay that ilhw-y were romping and racing about the grounds of a handsome house. Surcly she had seen that house be- | fore—from a different angle. Suddenly <he gasped for breath Now ghe knew! It was the home of Mr. Jared Smithers—{raceible old bachelor and one of the trustees of the school. Beyond the rolling snow-covered lawns, through the trunks of the no ble trees, Molly could see the high, prim greenery of the hedge that shut the house from the village streat. Somehow—she had blundered. This escapade meant farewell to another year's teaching in the Glen Hollow school and Molly did like her position 80 much. Molly’'s heart was dancing wildly, but she put on a little prim, school- ma'am air and shook her head. “Thank you, Mr. Smithers, I will come in by and by with pleasure, but for the present I will remain with the children and see that they do mo harm to your lovely grounds.” Mr. Smithers assented reluctantly and went into the house while Molly hastened to the wondering children and told them the startling news. At first there was.an inclination for wild flight, but when Mr. Smithers and his hired man appeared with two old bobsleds that had been found In the barn, they changed their minds. They also changed their opinifon of the gruftness of Mr. Smithers, for now, clad In thick boots and warm sweater, he coasted with them down the steep hill back of the house and quite forgot that he was a school trustee and a woman hater. Molly grew pinker and prettier and happier every moment and after thoy had ecaten a delicious dinner in the ihlg dining room they all trooped into the library, where Mr. Smithers wound up the talking machine and they had a feast of fun and rare mn. sie. It was almost dusk when they bade their host good-bye and they stood before the house and gave three lusty cheers and he waved his hat fran- tically in response. Somehow, that day, Jared Smithers had found bhis lost youth, In spite of this day of pleasure jand many others that fell to the lit- tle school teacher, Molly Dale did not ’mmp back to teach In the Glen Hol- low school, for when June came she had promiscd Jared Smithers that | when her wedding clothes were made {she would return to Glen Hollow a8 I'hll wife, .
