Few things are more than arrogant ignorance. appalling Folks are always “ down” on the things they’re not “ up” on. Those who’ve never been rarely appreciate good health. sick Nothing in the wor'a is impor­ tant „-nough to worry about— not even death. "Lucky is the man who now gets his preliminary training in a school o f journalism,” declared Edward Mott Wooley in “ Free Lancing For Forty Magazines.” “There are no newspapers in the world that are more given to print­ ing serial stories than those o f Ja­ pan,” declares K. Sugimura, editor, Asahi Simbun, Tokyo, Japan. Lady Motorist: “ But really, it wasn’t my fault. I put out my hand.” Gallant Irishman: “ Sure, me dar­ tin’, tis your hand that’s so small I didn't see it at all.” Dryden, a great poet o f another age, put it this way: Happy the man, and happy he alone, He who can call today his own; He, who secure within, can say, Tomorrow, do thy worst, fo r I have liv’d today. ‘'The Mar. Who Dared,” recent motion picture success based on the life of the late Mayor Anton J. Cermak o f Chicago, was written by Lamar Trotti, the first gradu­ ate of the Henry W. Grady school o f Journalism, University of Geor­ gia. Wrong Act •The place was crowded. It wasn’t exactly a fashionable wedding, but there was no gainsaying the inter­ est it caused, because both bride and bridegroom had been much in the public eye, she as an actress, he as a conjurer. Everything went well until they reached the critical stage o f the proceedings and the clergyman asked fo r the ring. The bridegroom plunged his hand into his pocket and brought out a rabbit. Then the horrified look in the clergyman’s eyes and a startled exclamation from the bride made him realize that something was wrong. He looked down and saw the rabbit. “ Pardon!” he said. “ Wrong act.” I I I — Continued The man responded with only a short, "O f course.” when asked, and, taking his place In the stern, pad- died silently. For a mile no word was spoken. Then I.aFane said. '"This Is the Laird's line.” Steve was wondering about the owner and how he might be ap­ proached when they shot around a sharp bend, coming from strong cur­ rent to a quiet, velvety pool. It was a surprise to see another cai.oe there, and a sort of shock to observe Franz in the stern, hold­ ing it in the shallows by a puddle against bottom. A decided shock, however, to meet the peculiarly an­ gered glare turned on him by the white haired mountain o f a man who sat In the how, a tly rod in ids huge hands. As they swept across the deep water toward the high bank Steve's eyes and interest held on this angler an I he was. I d a manner, prepared for his outburst. “Thanks!” was his first word, spoken bitterly. "Thanks, Meester ! .a la tie 'od yer companion! Thanks fo r puttin' doon th’ grandest fish that swims th’ stream !” Steve turned the canoe quickly into the shallows and brought it to a bait. “ I'm sorry, s ir!” he said. “ W e couldn't see around the bend. I didn't know— " “ See! K now ! What gude’d it’ ve done, had ye? What gude to me. I’d ciionse to know !” His gray eyes burned. “ Four years, nno. I ’ve worrked for yon tro o t!

D— n !" “ I wouldn't have done it for the world, s ir!” Steve protesteiL ”1 know what It Is myself, to work over a fish." “ A y I Wl* spinner, likely! Most yoong men use th’ spinner. They're not anglers; it takes an angler to k m !" “ Yes," Steve agreed. "A spinner fish, rrnan, a plunker wouldn't un­ derstand. For them, a fish is meat. For the dry fly . . . He's some­ thing else again. I'm sorry. Come on. La Fane." He spun the canoe about and they proceeded. He was conscious that the Scotchman was eyeing him. something like puzzlement evidently mingling with 111 humor. LuFune spoke after a time: “ It's little things that loucli him off . . . or win hla friendship, lik e ly , he won't speak to you for months.“ They rounded a bend or two and the voice of tlte river became a • ut­ ter. " W e atop here.” LaFane aald. “That's Tw enty Mile rapid below us. A man don't run It uuleas he has to. Aud then, ooly some get through." They beached at a trull and stepped out. A sharp bend wns be­ low and following the narrow leilge o f rocks, they moved along to where they could see the beginning of the rapid. Steve shrugged as he sur­ veyed the rock strewn torrent. No. a man would have dire necessity riding with him if he stuck to the river through that mad water. •'Frans did It once.” let Fane said, as though sensing shut his com­ panion's shrug Indicated. “ Tw o years ago. It’s what got him Into good standing with MacIVmald. Mac­ Donald couldn't do It even tn his younger days, and he was a good man. too. Some men are like that; they'll have nothing to do with any other until he can boat them ■ ■ But the Next Time the Club Found Its Mark. nt something they're good in. Franz is no fool.” Steve thought this last might have been added as a warning. And he thought again that this com­ panion was a strange creature. The Iatlrd was not In sight on their return and when they came to the pool where his great trout lived Steve called a halt and sat there for many minutes, peering down into the (lark water. It was a superb lair for a big fish, pre­ senting hazards which would put the best o f anglers to a disad­ vantage. For some time they re­ mained there, moving up nnd down while Steve, though saying little, studied the character o f the bend. As they entered Good-Bye lake again LaFane, apropos o f nothing at all, s a id : “ Old Jim left a fly rod nnd tackle here two years ago. 1 have fresh leaders.” “ Thauks." muttered Steve and grinned. Tills fellow was good t C H A P T E R IV W AS difficult In those first dnys I T always to present a front devoid of surprise when addressed as Jim, always to answer promptly when some man called, "Oh.

But, somehow, he managed Now in most cases when some­ thing goes wrong with the coun­ try the government appoints a com­ mittee to investigate and find out the trouble, and they first, inves­ tigate the man who makes the holler. So we appointed a commit­ tee of ourselves to investigate this man. We followed this man’s career ever since we knew him. The first thing that happened to this man was that he was born, but he had nothing to do with that; his par­ ents were entitled to the credit. When he got married, we men­ tioned that, including the bride’s name, the preacher, etc. In fact we mentioned everything but the preacher's fee which was not worth mentioning. We never mentioned Whatever the reaeons Frans might have In tulnd, whatever hla rata- thMiahtpe with unfriendly competi­ tor* might be, he surely was a fac­ tor to be considered, Steve realised. Where the men headquarter«»«!, he did not know. He had seen him only twice since arriving at Good- Bye : on that first ulght when he fought him down and, again, » t e n he encountered him with the lA lrd on the lower river. But another encounter with Frans to add to the already heavy burden o f hla ani­ mosity for the man known as Young Jim was In the cards. It app«ar«»d. Stopping at the headquarters store early one dey for tobacco, Steve saw an ag«.»d. wasted Indian eeat«»d on the doorstep.

Site wns staring at him and something like »corn and pride and affront showed In her ey*»e. He hnd the conviction that she had surmised his admiration and had put upon It the uaual construction. “ Mary. I ain't got any green,” Tom Tod»! »aid. turning from the shelf on which he kept ills scunt stock of dyes. "G ive me blue and yellow ," the girl replied. “ I make green.” She spoke with the broad vowel values usual In Indiana and also with the careful Inflection o f one who tins been schooled tn a lan­ guage other than their own, nnd turned her back on Steve, be thought, with conscious purpose. Ho went out smiling sardon ically. Those Indlnn girls, he told himself, probably were ju»tlfie«l In suspecting the emotions behind the stares of white men. He pad«ll«»d to the wood camp and was there until noon. Then, start­ ing back, he enc«>untrred the In­ dians again. And with them, tills time, was Franz. Their two canoes floating aide by side, first attracted his attention. Then a glistening puddle blade flashed in the sunlight ns the old man swung I I Franz, whose back was turned upstream so he could not si-e Drake's approach, ducked, grasped the paddle and pulled his canoe clos«»r to the other. g«“*tlcu- luting fiercely with Ills free hand. Steve heard him s a y : "N o more d— n foolishness! Hear that? You're going back to the farm now arid stay there I” The girl did not answer. She looked steadily at the man and deep anger smoldered in her face. Franz wrested the paddle from the old native's hands and dropiHil U Into his own canoe. Then, shor­ ing himself along, he roughly grasped the girl's wrist. “ Going to do as I tell you without any fuss, or *ve I got to herd you back like a pair o f strayed sheep?” he demanded. He twisted her arm and though her expression betrayed no feeling o f pain Drake knew that It must hurt severely and he called out sharply: “ Let her go. F ra n z!"
