( by AlcUuro Kewapaper tiyndlcate.)
There wore nmny things Unit dark
eyed Rebecca' w ns forced to put up
with In her Miuntld little home
muny things that were not at till con
Vluclvo to the happltiebs of a twenty-ycur-old
visionary such as shu hap
pened to be.
There was Grandnia Schwartz, com
fortiibly bltuated, wltli no real worry
of an InipoNorlshed old age, yet for
ever lamenting her growing feebleness
and Its attendunt loss of usefulness;
and Grandpa Schwartz, continually
railing against the present generation ;
and hist, Rebecca's father, moody nnd
silent, constantly worrying that a like
wise unjust world, Just then whisper
ing prohibition, might bring it to un
Issue. And he in the liquor business!
To gentle, retiring little Rebecca
the very smell of the stuff was nn
abomination. Dutifully, she worked
unseen In tho llttlo compartment be
hind the bar, labeling, bottling, seal
ing but worked mechanically, for al
ways her mind wns far ahead In the
future, far removed from that damp,
heavy atmosphere, llefore her mind's
eye many futures vlsloued themselves
mistily, many modes of life, many
friends. And, Impulsively, without a
moment's notice she reuched her great
decision.
Amid the tears and pleas and dire,
bewildering predictions of her near
ones she passed Into the gray stone
walls of the county hospital to emerge
four years later a positive little soft
voiced Rebecca, spotless In whlto
linen, bearing so much dignity, yet In
fluencing so sweetly. Not even her
father dared to challenge her when
she j-prlnklOd her queer smelling dis
infectants about the house nor yet
when she calmly disagreed with many
of their Hie-long traditions. Slowly,'
jot patient! j she worked for the
change. And slowly It came.
No longer did grandnia pray aloud
that her last sickness might be "a
short bed"; grandpa, If he still re
tained his own opinions, kept them
pretty well to himself, especially In
the presence of this capable young
changeling, and lather, the former
master of his own and others' desti
nies, had cause to be Jubilant, for, be
cause of the earnest solicitation of
Rebecca, he hud stepped very grace
fully nnd financially safe from the
business a year previous nnd compli
menting himself on his shrewdness,
sat buck and dared a real prohibition
to do Its worst. Thus they sat satis-
fled, atop of their llttlo world of hap
piness. Suddenly, their world caved
in l Father saw him first.
"Vhy? I was simply on a case with
him," was her only explanation, given
with a finality that was eloquent In
Its defiance, or such It seemed to the
meek old man. Rut tho cases became
most frequent.
Like most old ladles, grandma had
the habit of sitting down In her rock
ing chair with something to read, then
going to sleep, to awaken Just as the
small black roadster bearing away her
daughter's child turned the corner.
One evening she awakened about three
seconds sooner than usual or Just in
time to catch a glimpse of the mystery
man. Her vantage point was the bed
room window and the moonlight, abet
ted by a fading vision, Interfered
somewhat. Her heart stood still, for
tho silvery grayness of the hair and
the pnleness of the bkln proclaimed
him a Gentile. The trembling knees
grew weak nnu slmkingiy sue crept
beneath the sheets, sore at heart, fear
fully apprehensive, yet an nlly.
Rebecca would marry whomever she
chose, this tho old Indy knew, yet she
also knew the hardness of the non
compromising father, and ufter weeks
of dwelling in such mlserj. It wns not
surprising that she took to her bed,
really sick this time. One evening, he
Invaded their home; straining hard,
tho invalid heard Rebecca's happy
voice and cheery laugh welcoming
him.
"Oh, God of Abraham," she prayed
humblj', "take me to your bosom."
Great drops of perspiration stood
out on her forehead and it was quite
a few minutes before she became con
scious of u' cool hand soothing her
brow. Slowlj', sho peered up, seek
ing for a little comfort In the kind
eyes above her bed, but they wcro
elsewhere.
"I shouldn't have, left her," Rebecca
wos saying, "the hent Is so depressing
today."
Grandma's eyes encircled the room,
seeking the Intruder, and one look Into
n pair of somber black eyes and her
bluelsh, grayish, swaying old world up
nnd righted Itself. What matter
blondo-llko hair or Gentile features?
For, Instinctively, Grandma Schwartz
know she was being supported ny tne
strong nnn of a son of the chosen
people. A little gnsplng, half-uttered
explanation In Rebecca's car, a few
nervous tears and It was all over ns
tho girl said chldlngly:k
"Grandma, dear, where Is your trust
In mo? I never could forsake my own
people, my own faith ; If I for a mo
ment doubted that I should, I would
havo dropped It all four years ngo."
And with a glad little cry, rccognlz
niiin ns hnnliicss In any dialect, grand
ma sank back among tho pillows and
closed her eyes for her first real nap
In weeks.

One hundred cooperative elevators
with an oillclal total capacity of 1,010,
030 bushels of grain and having an
anuual turn-over of approximately
twenty million bushels, nnd over 500
growers controlling better than one
million bushels ot graiu, have become
afllllated with the U, S. Grain Growers,
Inc., in Nebraska according to latest
teports from tho olllce of tho stato or.
ganizer.
C. J. Osboru of Sidney, president of
tho Farmers' Union of Nebraska, gave
the U. S. Grain Growers bis unqualified
endorsement recently when he signed .
a grower's contract. He has the honor
of being the first to sign in Cheyenne
county. He also spoke in favor of
this national cooperative marketing
company to the directors of tho eleva
tor at Sidney when they signed the
elevator agreement. Mr. Osborn was
elected president of the Farmers'
Union last April following the resigna
tion of C. II. Gustafson.
Gov. S. R. McKelvie, In writing to
tho national headquarters of the U. S.
Grain Growers last week, gave his ap.
proval to the plan. "I have at all
tlmos bad confidence in Its ultimate
success," tho governor stated. "The
undertaking is a very large ono to bo
sure, but successful cooperatlvo mar
ketlng along the same linos as you
proposo has boon evolved into other
lines and I bellovo It can bo done in
tho cooperative marketing of grain.
Anyhow I think tho effort is well
worth making, nnd 1 recognize lu the
movement no selfish Intarests beyond'
those that may bo properly observed
by tho farmer, who has a right to ob
tain for his products tho maximum
prices that tho economic laws of sup
ply and demand will create.
Late reports show that over 5,000
farmers of tho middle west have sign
ed the grower's contracts since the
start of the campaign. North Dakota
