tiled to keep her thoughts from going
back to that homecoming, so different
from her plan.. She tried to tlmi.lt
God that Derry had come lumii', even
though In Home Htrnnge way he bad
left the living, thinking part of lilni in
France.
She looked tenderly over to whore
Horry it on the door step, playing
with n spray of lllae.
Down the street oiune a swift patter
of feet, ami a little girl stopped at
the gate. She was dressed In white,
with a red, while and blue cap.
"Klowors ready, .Mrs. Kent?" she In
quired, smoothing down hor starched
skirts.
"All romly, Gladys, and about all
you can "carry, my dear." She came
-,lai' jyi(l l'h'ced the big bouquet In the
Child's ifFmM. - Derry wa looking at
the red, white and blue cap. lie shook
his head slowly, and brushed his band
over his eyes.
"Yon aren't going to tho parado?"
asked Gladys, as she started off.
"No dear; I don't think Derry wants
to go today,". Mrs. Kent replied, stead
ily. Derry wont ovor and lay down In
the bRtninock. .Mrs. Kent paused on
the stops to see lillti settled.
"While you have a llttlo nap, I II pet

she went In the house.
Presently dowjt town tho bnnd bc

the rumble of tho drum's enme up tl-r

his forehead, and, ho brushed bl ; e

T:h boom of the drum drew nearer.

4 shut her ears to the music, and the
novyledge that out there, khakl-clad
nuis, strong, .intoiitgent, were paying
honWr to those who slept.
Tho boom of the stfluUng gutis'smoiu
upon lifer oars. She want to the d or
am, pooped at the hammock. It was
empty. In swift ;tlarm she glanced
about the yard and snw the open gate.
In 10 months Derry had never been
out there alone. .She ran down the
street trying, to steady her trembi:n ;
knees. With sure Instinct she made
for the cemetery. He bad gone to
the para tie.
Shu sped on. The procession was
winding slowly out, drums muted,
music stilled. The sun caught In tho
(Id of the silken llagut the head
or the column, and tho breeze llnng It
forth, red as the sacrillelal blood of
Us slain, white as the souls of its
heroic womanhood, blue as the heav
ens that had guarded and moulded It.
Hut she had eyes for none of these.
Only dimly did she see the thin line
of blue, th" wblteclad girls, tho sturdy
ninrchliifc lines or khaki. On and on
they passed, and at last site nw him
across the moving pageant. He was
staudlug alone at the edge of the
crowd, tho dazed wondering frown
still on his face.
Fnrguttiug- the procession she started
across the street. The last or the
marchers bad passed, and the-antes
carrying the old veterans were follow
ing. It nil happened so quickly. In the
very jhistant that Mrs. Kent stalled
acrosji. the street Derry saw hor, saw,
too. the auto benrlng down upon her.
Mrs. Kent saw him leap, felt his swift
arms about her, and did slio hear or
did site dream that vibrant volco
shouting "Mother?"
Darkness closed ubout her, a thick,
palpitating darkness that whirred and
sang with strange noises. After n long
time It lifted, and she aaw tho Wnd old
face of Dr. nnnvn bending over her.
She ly on her own bed. Mrs. Kent
stard up with one cry "Derry." Th
