Every fellow should preserve his first love letter, if he can get hold of it. Your first love letter was, possibly, the only absolutely Sincere, honest, courageous letter you ever wrote. In all the others there was calculation, concealment, insincerity and, very likely, chicane in some degree. But that first letter was part of your honest self. It ran something like this, in effect: You told her that you loved her with your whole heart, her and her alone, and you did. Children, experiences, and the erosions gf time may, in later years, impair that exclusive monopoly, but when you wrote that letter, that monopoly was the closest on earth, regardless of what the girl was or promised to become. fication of this view, later on, honest conviction You wrote that you could In mind and heart you w selfish and uncalculating, a mud, and the sobs of your rty.

How about this, since? You showed just what you were. How many times have you tried to pass off your counterfeit self since? Great Scott, Man! Underlying all that romantic gush was your real self, if you were an honest lover. Don’t burn that letter, if you've got it! It is a me- mento of a time when you felt yourself to be a real man, and a genuinely good man “All the world loves a lover,” because he’s genuine. The first love letter is a beautiful bird of hope that flies, singing, up into a cloudless sky, and never comes back. It is the blessed glory of anticipation that’s later hidden by the clouds of realization It is the first, and likely your last, uncalculating ex- pression of perfect truth.

The Bishops are tenants on the Sarver place, and it was on the Sarver farm that the strike was made. An endless line of and farm wagons was passing along the muddy road. They crossed the Scatter creek bridge and halted at the derrick just be yond, Mrs. Bishop could see the crowd from the gate. “Old man Sarver,” she said, “al- ways said there was oll here. Folks laughed at him. He died, and the farm was divided up among his children and one grandchild.

I hope she gets rich quick, But probably she won't, And I’ll swear the Bishops can't afford to gamble. eee When the baller was brought up yesterday, and first water and then oil gushed Into the tub, eager hands were thrust Into the recep- tacle.
