"And von really want to learn to

)so many of us at the game now, and
it's no use unless you' make up your
mind to do no end of practice and
jnake yourself something extra very
extra you know." , '. "'
. '' 'T am not afraid of work and I

"Yes Pat said he was sure you
; could, too."
s.' Elizabeth drew bark a little. "Do
;.you callhim by.'his Christian name?"
;sHe asked.' "' . :
t "Yes every one calls every one by
'their Christian natne in our.little lot."
Jihc dark-haired girl said, easily. "My
.'hame is Netta-l hope you will call
;nie Netta what's your' name?"-. .
:i "Elizabeth."
& "What a nice, old-fashioned name!
,I think it suits you."
Elizabeth flushed. ."Because I am
sfcld-fashioned, too, do Jrou .jncan"
she asked. , .1
: "Of course not, andbesids, if
foij arc, it's only your clothes, and
St hey can be altered."
She spoke so kindly that Eliza
beth's heart warmed toward her.
i. "I think you're a dear," she said,
vvith shy impulse. Netta blushed. ;
. "Oh, well, it never does anyone
Jany harm to give people a helping
Jhand when they're down on their
,'luck," she said, carelessly. "I -know
what it is to have a rotten time. . I
owe ail the hpiineii I've evrr Iad
to J 't Koytlon. Here e irr; lh
it where 1 live."
Eliileth followed Iter into the
home ilent1y, and . Kelt f!U-d! to
the landlady and introduced
betli. Mrs. Silcum welcomed Una
brth elfmively; he bustled about
preparing the cUra lunch, deeply
concerned that the had not known
of her new lodger' advent before
Jind.
"Jt' a lot of trouble for you. I'm
afraid,". Elizabeth a-iid. ibyly. Ibc
houe wa poorly furnished, but
iertipulouIy clean, and he felt far
more at home in it than lic had
ever felt at Mr. MaW.
"No trouble at all." Mr. Silcum
objected. "W hat am I here for? Work
it plcaure."
She hoved Elirabeth lirr brdroom
with great pride. ,
"I only cleaned it out yesterday."
he informed her, o it'i juit right
for you, mill, and a door leading into
'Mis Stacfy'ii o you won't feel
lonely." . ,.
"We'll hae lunch and then I fl.all
have to get back and you ran un
pack and have a rrit," Netta laid.
"You look, an if you could do with
a good ideep." ' :
"Shall you be away long?" Eliza
beth askeoV She .-would liked to have
gone back to the Primus ichool w ith
Netta. . .'j ;
"I shall be in at 6 today." Netta
answered. "We're not so busy as
usual. Sometimes I'm there till 10
o'clock."
She looked at Elizabeth quirzically.
"I dare say Mr. Royston will come
round this evening and make ar
rangements about you." she added.
Elizabeth flushed. "Will be? I
should like to begin my lessons at
once."
She was lorry when Netta had
gone. S,he spent as long ai possible
unpacking her clothes and arranging
them in the. cupboard and drawers
in her room. She wondered if the
afternoon would ever pass. She was
