The bar was quite high and Mat had pulled a mat underneath. Suddenly, while Jerry hung there and seemed about to swing himself up to the bar, he was seen to shake and shiver. He gave an excla mation la a smothered voice. Mat and two others, one of them the rym director. Dr. Fields, ran for ward Just In time to break the boy's all and probably saved his neck from wing broken. "What's the matter?" Dr. Fields sked. "Lost your nerve?" 0VCH1 " Mary-Ann-Eliza Marsh.
