SYNOPSIS.
I Claude Wheeler, living on a Nebraska
raneh with his parents and a younger
brother, Ralph, returns unwillingly* to
I Temple rnllege, the small denominational
school he has been attending. He request
ed to be allowed to attend the state uni.
versify, but his mother objected because
'■he believes the hoy will be In better en
vironment in the smaller institution. The
father, Nat Wheeler, is a Jolly, easy
going man whose Jokes rather jar on
C laude's sensibilities. An older brother,
Ilayllss, runs an Implement store aft
Frankfort, near which the Wheeler ranch
Is located.
CHAPTER VI. ,
Three months later, on a gray De
cember day, Claude was seated in the
passenger coach of an accomodation
freight train, going home for the
holidays. He had a pile of books on
the seat beside him and was reading,
when the train stopped with a jerk
that sent the volumes tumbling to the
floor. He picked them' up and looked
at his watch. It was noon. Tho
freight would lie hero for an hour or
more, until the castbouiul passenger
went by. Claude left the car and
walked7slowly up thp platform toward
the station. A bundle of little spruce
trees had been flung off near tho
freight office, and sent a smell ot
Christmas into the cold air. A few
drays stood about, the horses blanket
ed. The steam from the locomotive
made a spreading, deep violet stain as
it curled up against the gray sky.
Claude went into a restaurant across j
the street and ordered an oyster stew. '
The proprietreset' a plump little Ger- ;
man woman with a frizzed King, si- 1
ways remembered him from trip to i
trip. While he was eating his oysters j
she told him that she had just fin- |
ished roasting a chicken with sweet
potatoes, and if ho liked he could have
the first brown cut off the breast he- I
fore the train men came in for dinner.
Asking her to bring it along, he wait
ed, sitting on a stool, his boots on
tho lead pipo foot rest, his elbows on
the shiny brown counter, staring at a
pyramid of tough looking bun sand
wiches under u glass globe.
‘I been lookin’ for you every day,”
said Mrs. Voigt when she brought his
plate. T put plenty good gravy on
dem sweet pertaters, ja.”
"Thank you. You must be popular
with your boarders.”
She giggled. "Ja, all de train men
is friends mit me. Sometimes dey
bring me a liddle Sweltzerkase from
i one of dem big saloons In Omaha
i what de Gherman heobles batronlze. I
! ain’t got no boys mein own self, so 1
! got to fix up liddle tings for dem
boys, eh?"
She stood nursing her stumpy
; hands under her apron, watching
'every mouthful he ate so eagerly
j that she might have been tasting it
I herself. The train crew trooped in,
| shouting to her and asking what, thoro
| was for dinner, and she ran about like
! an excited li'tle hen. chuckling and
cackling. Claude wondered whether
working men were ns nice as that to
old women the world over, lie didn't
believe so. He liked to think that
such geniality was common only ill
What he broadly called “the west.” lie
bought a big cigar, and strolled up
and down the platform, enjoying the
fresh air until the passenger whistled
In.
After his freight train got under
steam he did not open hi* books
again, but sat looking out at the gray
homesteads as they unrolled before
him. with their stripped, dry corn
fields. and the great ploughed
stretches where the winter wheat was
asleep. A starry sprinkling of snow
lay like hoar frost along the crumbly
ridges between the furrows.
Claude • believed lie knew almost
every farm between Frankfort and
Lincoln, he had made the journey so
often, on fast trains anil slow. Ho
went home for all the holidays, and
had been again and again called back
on various pretexts; when Ills mother
was sick, when Ralph overturned the
car and broke his shoulder, when his
father was kicked by a vicious stal
lion. It was not a Wheeler custom to
employ a nurse; if any one in the
household was ill, it was understood
that some member of the family would
act in that capacity.
Claude was reflecting upon the
fact that he had never gone home be
fore in such good spirits. Two fortu
nate things had happened to him
since he went over Ahis road three
months ago.
As soon as he reached Lincoln in
September, he had matriculated at
tho state university ter special work
in European history. The year before
he had heard the head of the depart
ment lecture for gome charity, and
resolved that even it ho were not al
lowed to change his college, ho would
manage (o study under that man. The
oourse Claude selected will one upon
which a student could put as much
time as he chose. It was based upon
the reading of historical sources, and
tho professor was notoriously greedy
for full notebooks, Claude's were of
the fullest. He worked early and late
at the university library, often got
his supper in town and went back to
read until closing hour. For tho first
time he was studying a subject which
seemed to him vital, which had to do
with eventR and ideas, instead of with
lexicons and grammars. How often he
had wished for Ernest during the lec
tures! Ho could see Ernest drinking
them up. agreeing or dissenting In
his independent way. The class was
very large, ajid the professor spoke
without notes—he talked rapidly, as
if lie were addressing his equals, with
none of the coaxing persuasiveness to
which Temple students were accus
tomed. His lectures were condensed
like a legal'brief, but there was a
kind of dry fervour in his voice, and
when h» occasionally interrupted his

Claude usually came out frorfcthese
j lectures with the feeling : imk the
i world was full of stimulating Taings.
j and that one was fortunate to be alive
! and to be able to find out about them,
j His reading that autumn actually
made the future look brighter to him;
seemed to promise him something,
i Ofie of his chief difficulties had al
ways been that he could not make
himself believe In the importance of
making money or spending it. If that
were all, then life was not worth the
trouble.
The second good thing that had be
fallen him was that he had got to
know some people he liked. This came
about accidentally, after a football
gAme between the Temple eleven and
the state university team—merely a
practice gahie for the latter. Claude
waa paying halfback with the Temple.
Toward the close of the first quarter,
he followed his interference safely
around the right end, dodged a tackle
which threatened to eml the play, and
broke loose for a 80-yard run down the
field for a touchdown. He brought his
eleven off with a good showing. The
state men congratulated him warmly
and their couch went so far as to
hint that if he ever wanted to make a
change, there would be a place for
him on the university team.
Claude hail a proud moment, but

ing to him, the Temple students
