(Conthiued from Yesterday.) M.NOI'SIS. ( Laurie M heeler, living on a Nebrnska ranch vvllh bis parents and a younger brother, Kulph, Iras to quit Temple col lege. a -mull denominational selionl at Lincoln. at the* end of bis I bird year to take rare of the home plane while bis falher, .Nat Wheeler, and Itaipli spend j most of thrlr time on their Colorado | rarirb. Claude's older brother, Itayllss, runs an implement store at Frankfort. While in I/lnenln Claude has heroine a close friend of the Krlieh family. Mrs. Kr- ! lleh, a motherly widow with five sons, having made the shy hoy feel at home on Ids numerous visits. Twelve hoge on the Wheeler raiirh are killed In a snow storm. (Continued From Yesterday. 1 Claude went to bed Immediately j after supper, but he had no sooner stretched his aching body between the | sheets than he began to feel woke ful. He was humiliated at losing the pigs, because they had been left In his charge: but the loss In money, \ about which even his mother was grieved, he didn't seem to care, lie wondered whether all that winter lie; hadn't been working himself up into; a childish contempt for money values.; When Ralph was home at Christ-; mas time he wore on his little finger; a heavy gold ring, with a diamond i as big as a pea, surrounded by showy grooves in the metal. He admitted | to Claude that he had won it in a, poker grime. Ralph's hands were never free from automobile grease— they were the red, stumpy kind that couldn’t be kept clean. Claude re-1 tnembered him milking in the barn by lantern light, his jewel throwing off Jabbing sparkles of color, and his fingers looking very much like the teats of the cow. That picture rose before him now, as a symliol of what; successful farming led to. The farmer raised and took to mar ket things with an intrinsic value; wheat and corn as good as could be KTown anywhere in the world, hogs and cattle that were the best of thetr kind. In return he got manufactured articles of poor quality; showy fur niture that went to pieces, carpets and draperies that faded, clothes that made a handsome man look like a (down. Most of his money was paid out for machinery—and that, too. wept to pieces. A steam thrasher didn’t last long; a horse outlived three automobiles. Claude felt sure that when he was a little boy and all the neighbors were poor, they and their houses and farms had more individuality. The farmers took time then to plant fine cottonwood groves on their places, and to set osage orange hedges along the border of their fields. Now these trees were ail being cut down and grubbed up. Just why, nobody knew; they Impoverished the land . . . they made the snow drift . . . nobody had them any more. With prosperity came a kind of callousness; every body wanted to destroy the old things they used to take pride in. The or chards, which had been nursed and tended so carefully 20 years ago, were now left to die of neglect. It was less trouble to run into town in an automobile and buy fruit than it was to raise it. The people themselves had changed. Ho could remember when all the. farmers in this community were j friendly toward each other; now they were continually having lawsuits. ' Their sons were either stingy and ] grasping, or extravagant and lazy, and . they wore always stirring up trouble, j Evidently, It took more Intelligence to spend money than lo make it. When lie pondered upon this con clusion, Claude thought of the Er llchs. Julius could go abroad and study for his doctor's degree, and live; on less than Ralph wasted every year. j Ralph would never have a profession or a trade, would never do or make ‘ anything the world needed. Nor did Claude find his own out- j look much better, lie was 21 years old, and he had no skill, no training—i no ability that, would ever take him i among the kind of people he admired. . He was a clumsy, awkward farmer1 hoy, and even Mrs. Erlich seemed to think the farm the best place for him. Probably it was; but all the! same he didn't find this kind of life worth the trouble of getting up every morning. He could not see the use of working for money, when money brought nothing one wanted. Mrs. Er lich said It brought security. Some times he thought this security was what was the matter with everybody; that only perfent safety was required to kill all the best qualities in people and develop the mean ones. Ernest, too, said "it's the best life in the world, Claude." But if you went to lied defeated every night, and dreaded to wake In the morning, then clearly it was too good a life for you. To ho assured, at his age. of three meals a day and plenty of sleep, was like being assured of a docent burial. Safety, security: If you followed that reasoning out, then the unborn, those who would never be born, were the safest of all; nothing could happen to them. Claude knew, and everybody else knew, seemingly, that there was some thing wrong with hint. He had been unable to conceal his discontent. Mr. Wheeler was afraid he was one of those visionary fellows whfl make un necessary difficulties for themselves and other people. Mrs. Wheeler thought tho trouble with her son was that he had not yet found his Saviour. Baybas was convinced that his brother was a moral rebel, that behind his reticence und his guarded manner he concealed the most dan gerous opinions. The neighbors liked Claude, but they laughed at him. and said it was a good thing hts father was well lixed. Claude was aware of his energy, instead of ao ccmpbshlng something, was spent In resisting unalterable conditions, and In unavailing efforts to subduo his own nature. When he thought he had at last got himself in hand, a moment would undo the work of days: in a flash he would he transformed from a wooden post inlo a living bov. He would spring to his feet, turn over quickly in bed. or stop short In his walk, because the old belief flashed up in him with an intense kind of hope, an intense kind of pain—the conviction that then* was something splejiditl about life. If be could but find It! CHAPTER XIX. The weather after the big storm, behaved capriciously. There was a partial thaw which threatened to flood everything—then a hard freeze. The whole country glittered with an icy crust. Bud people went about on a platform of frozen snow, quite above the level of ordinary life. Claude got out Mr. Wheeler s old double sleigh from the run*-* of heterogenous . h jeots that had for years lain on top of it, and brought the rusty sleigh bells up to the bouse for Mahailey to scour with brick dust. Now that they bad automobiles, most of the fanners had let their old sleighs go to pieces. Ilut the Wheelers always kept every thing! Claude told his mother he meant to take Enid Koyce for a sleigh ride. Enid was the daughter of Jason Koyee, the grain merchant, ono of the early settlers, who for many years had run the only grist mill in Frank fort county, i*dio and Claude were old playmates: he made a formal call at the mlllhouse. as it was called, every summer during his vacation, and often dropped in to see Mr. Royce nt his town office. Ipnnediately after supper Claude put tlie two wiry little blacks. Pom pry and Katan. to the sleigh. The moon had been up since long before the sun went down, had been hang ing pale in the sky most of the after noon, and now it flooded the snow-ter raced land with silver. It was one ot those sparkling winter nights when a boy feels that though the world is very htg, lie hhnself is biggrr; that under the whole crystalline blue sky there is no one qnile so warm and sentient as himself, and that all this magnificence is for him. The sleigh bells rang out with a kind of musi cal lightheartedness, as if they were glad to slug again, after the many winters they had hung rusty and dust choked In the farm. The mill road, that left off the high way and down to the river, had pleasant associations for Claude, when he was a youngster, every time his father went to mill, he begged to go along. He liked the mill and the miller and the miller's little girl. He had never liked the miller's house, however, and he was afraid of Knid's mother. liven now. as he tied his horses to the long hitch bar down by the engine room, he resolved that he would not be persuaded to enter that formal porter, full of new-looking, ex pensive furniture, whore his energy always deserted him and ho could cover think of anything to talk about. It he moved, his shoes squeaked In the silence, and Mrs. Kovoe sal and blinked her sharp little eyes at him. and the longer he stayed, the harder It was to go. (Continued In The Morning Iter.)
