'.& itftfrffi ' ( D5H5c!5E5HSUSE5E5E5HS2SHSasaS2SH5li5 In I WHIP-POOR-WILL , 1922, by McClure Nwipaper Syndicate The Inst dainty piece of finery had been finished and cnrefully luld on the bed "In the front room. The dressmak er's threads, rngs and patterns and spools had been cleaned away, and the nerve-wracking planning, fitting and hustling were over, releasing the tension of wearying weeks of confining toll. Rose had closed the door and gone down to the piazza for a breath of fresh air. ' "What a relief," she sighed ; "It will be so nice to have a few days of rest. All the other girls have been In a jungle of confusion up.to the last min ute. I think I will go over and call on Will's mother. It's flno to huve a con genial mother-in-law and Pa' Parker as he already calls himself Is such a dear. It's like having two sweet hearts, he Is so considerate." Rose walked slowly up the mnple shaded road until she came to a little white cottnge behind some locust trees in full bloom. It was nearly dark,' with a bay moon Just disappearing be hind Peaked hill. How perfect every thing was on n June evening, and what n lucky girl she was to be marrying the best boy that ever lived. As she turned up the path, bordered by a bed of perennials backed by shrubs and two small fir balsoms, she thought she heard his voice. Glancing through an opening, she unmistakably saw Will's form nnd a female figure with a hat on, tightly veiled. His voice centinued: "You are graceful enough to please an artist and your poise is perfect. We will fool them all the ninnies I You're a darling I" His head was very near now, while he carefully buttoned her sweater. Tfl see jou again In the morning, honey; don't be nfrnld of the dark" Rose did not stop to hear more, but tied In her silent-soled sneakers down the now lonely road. A lone wliip poqrwlll sci earned from some nearby bush : "Whip-poor-will I Whip-poor-will I Whip-poor-will 1" "How absurd I Ridicule -heaped upon Insdltl Imagine ME whipping Willi He can never be anything to me here after and I am not the breach-of-promlse kind of a girl I What a fool I have been to think a boy who has known me all his life could be In love with mel Of course he needed some new peisonallty to Interest him I I am like a sister. Rose ended her, exclamations by de ciding to take the nine o'clock train to the next town to visit her sister.. While dressing Rose penned a short note to drop in the post office as she passed it on the wny to the train. It wus very simple: "I have discovered that you prefer someone else. Goodby. ROSE." Will was parking his camera when the postman arrived. He was sur prised to see his address In Rose's handwriting, for he had supposed she was at home but had not been up be cause she was busy and tired. After reTidlng the note he pondered with wrinkled brow. "Rose was as hoppy as usual just before supper ; what COULD she have Imagined so soon after?" At last his face registered the solu tion of the problem. His mouth wid ened from its tight puckers. A con vulsing laugh ended In a roll on the lawn. Quickly gathering himself up, he hurried Into the house, put a pic ture Into an envelope with a note as short as Rose's. "Dear Rese: Come home on the 8 p. m. and be Introduced to jour rlvnl. "Yours. WILL." The eight o'clock train biought a very disconcerted young lady 'to Ma piedell. Will met her nt the stntlon and tried to make the affair as little embarrusslng as possible. They stopped to speak to Rose's mother, who wns much astonished at her quick return. As the couple continued up the road to Will's home Sirs. Moore remarked to herself: "I didn't suppose they were so In fatuated they couldn't stay apart two days! I don't believe they will ever quarrel." Will led Rose from the path to the spot where she Jind viewed her ter rible revelation of the night before. The graceful young lady was there as tightly veiled as then. Will tipped his hat with great dignity. "Allrfvv me to Introduce my charm ing scarecrow. Isn't she the peach lest one you ever saw? She's gotten up over mother's dress form. She has certainly fooled all tho ninny crows, robins and vvoodcliucks ; they let my peas, beans, corn and cherries alone. But I played you a terrible trick, sweetheart; what can you do to pun ish me?" Suddenly a cry came from a maple close by that made Will and Rose Jump Into each other's arms. "Whip-poor-Will I Whip-poor-will I Whip-poor- Will I" They both laughed and the whlp poorvvill flew away. Order of Odd Fellow.
