T IHtHH Us th pony picked lta way Dp th Mid, rock bordered canyon Ivy Norris iok In areat breaths of the oxone of ie Arizona foothills. "This Is Mvlng!" she cried, throwing bt her arms. "The folks back home ionld not know me. feese three Ionths spent In this wonderful ell ate have made me strong and young bain. And this weather! Back In few Hampshire they are having snow, fhlle oat here It Is golden sunshine all fcy long. My heart Is full of the day Thanksgiving! When I write back lome that I spent my Thanksgiving kit u the foothills all alone the folks lon't believe me. They'll simply say in learning western ways fast to kanufactnre some big ones to boom be country." The last of August Ivy Norris, pale. bin and thirty, had arrived from the list to teach the Lone Mesa school. he cowboys on Mr. Tower's ranch. bere she boarded and lodged, treated lie coming of the cultivated little wo ban as a great Joke. Her short skirts. fce boots and the handsome little re- olver and cartridge belt furnished Biem material for comment for weeks. Even Warde nughes, the foreman, was I mused at her first attempts to mount nd ride Pilot, the gentlest pony on the tench, bat he equally enjoyed the pluck L'lth which she persisted In learning ride and the use of the little revolver mat looked so comically dangerous In ker small white band. On this Thanksgiving morning the andsome foreman had reined In his f ow pony behind a thicket of mesqulte trees and was watclftng faithful old ftiot carefully bear his fair rider up the trail of Little Springs canyon. All t once he became aware of the fact that a few months had wrought a Jpeat transformation In the school teacher of Lone Mesa. The thin form ft ad rounded out into graceful curves, jhe pale face bad become plump and f-osy, and her awkwardness in the sad dle had given place to an easy manner jthat could no longer be ascribed to a tiovlce. "She's like a girl of twenty," he so liloquized. "By Jove, she's the neat- WAITMHl, IVY HIIKK Hll nillB , f T Ma UUOtiKD THA1L. struck these foothills. I wonder If she knows where she Is going. She's a .good ten miles from the ranch house now and atlll going on. Well, she's a pretty Interesting stray, and I'm going to see that she doesn't get entirely lost." With this thought Warde Hughes en tered another trail, then cautiously made a detour, coming back to the canyon Just above Little Springs. Still concealed back of some manzanlta bushes, he watched Ivy Norris come on up the rugged trail. She was sing ing a stanza of an old school song that he remembered, and the notes floated up to him on the n arm November air sweet and clear as au angel's song. Suddenly she ceased, and Bhe glanced quickly up the slope. Then, catching up her revolver, she sent a shot whlz ting off Into the chaparral. A tawny form dropped out of sight down the ravine. "Ah," exclaimed the foreman ad miringly, "she made Mr. Coyote hit the dirt as well as a soldier could have done it" Guiding the pony to the springs. Ivy dismounted. While Fllot drank In long, satisfying quaffs from one of the little springs the young woman looked about her, noting the steep granite walls that surrounded her, the deep azure of the sky and the golden glow of the sunshine enveloping everything like a loving mother keeping a winter's chill at bay. Then she saw Warde Uugbes approaching from an opposite direction. "May I Join you. Miss Norris V he asked. "Certainly, Mr. Hughes," she an swered. "It Is noon, isn't ltr giving an odd little squint at the sun as if aba were already enough of a plalnswoman to estimate the time by Its elevation. "It to about 1230," said Hughes, with the old timer's accuracy. Then It is time for my lunch, and I'm as hungry as that wretched coyote I shot at It to Thanksgiving day, Mr. Hughes. 1 have beef sandwiches, olives, cheese, crackers and some fig wafers in my saddlebags. With New England hospitality I ask you to help me eat them." "While it is not the custom of us cat tlemen to take a lunch at noon." he re turned, looking into the bright eyes of me iirae woman before him, "I am giaa to break the custom on this occa sion by accepting your invitation." Under a live oak they spread the pa per napkins which Ivy had brought ana arranged the lunch upon them. Hughes soon caught the happy spirit of his companion, and. throwing his mask of conscious restraint aside, he talked and laughed with her with the pleasure of a boy. "The sprfug must furnish us tea," she said, handing Hughes her pretty silver folding cup. He quickly filled it rrom the spring near by. Then he passed the cup to her. "I did not think of having company," she said apolo getically, touching the rim daintily w ith her pretty lips. "I wish I had an other." Tui you haven't," protested Ilushrs heartily. "I like this one best," taking tlic cup from her hands and drinking. For a minute ivy made no reply. Then she looked at the man sitting op posite her as If In doubt of bis mean ing. The next Instant she smiled frank ly and said. "Well, I think I do too." The half serious simplicity of her speech amused nughes, and, throwing back his head, be laughed In real en joyment "I'm sure we'll get on all right," he said, still laughing. Hughes declared there never was such a lunch. The greatest Thanks giving feast in the land was nothing compared with this. The cold, pure water which they sipped In such good comradeship from the one cup he was sure outrivaled the nectar of all the gods. All too soon it was finished, and they sat back under the live oak silent, but happy. Suddenly Ivy realised it was mldafternoon and she had twelve miles to ride back to the ranch. Tomorrow there would be school and the old rou tine of duties. Today held sunshine, laughter, Joy; the next would be filled with the dally grind and bard tasks. Watching her from under the wide rim of his hat, Warde Hughes saw the weary expression begin to settle over Ivy Norris' face, and be understood. Left an orphan after finishing school, his loneliness had driven him west. Here temperate habits and sterling principles had won him success. Now a woman, loving the freedom of his hills as he loved It, had entered his life. Suddenly be beheld a vtolon a vision of liberty for both. Immediate ly he felt an Intuition that the loneli ness of both was at an end. The new life of sunshine, the sunshine of a wonderful love, was glowing for them. He yearned to tell her, to lift the shad ows from the patient face, but the moment of realization was too blissful for speech. "Come," he said at last springing up to meet the new life and claim It for them. Gently he took her hand and lifted her to ber feet. Then, look ing Into her beautiful eyes, he said engerly, "Little woman, I want you to let me make every day of your life a Thanksgiving like today." A soft flush stole Into ber face, but she did not leave the strong arms which held ber.
