J.1 MORSE'S MASTERPIECE
'ANNE lifted the glasses and
" leveled them t tho great tri
angular basin between two solid
wedges of mountain rock, vhlck
a third slowly rearing wall of ce
ment and stone was making Into a
giant reservoir.
Orer the basin, some quarter ot
a mile away, bung a complicated
network ot scaffolding, on which
Innumerable mannikins clung
clung and worked. Up and down
the mountainside, crawled Innumer
able others, a ceaseless, harried
ant-column, carting up material,
A great concrete wall was rising toward the sky to defy river waters.
passing It to the Insects on the
scaffolding, then hurrying away for
more.
"The people around here, the na
tives, you huoiv," Douglas ex
plained, "are dead against the res
ervoir project. They have their own
little private ditches which the big
reservoir will drain off. They will
he forced to pay for water rlshis
which they had before for 'nothing,
nnd naturally they're fighting the
thing tooth and nail. There's even
been talk of."
"How very stupid,'' Anne com
mented absently, her altentlon was
concentrated on the scene of tre
mendous, purposeful activity
through the glasses, "when you
consider how many more people
wiil benefit and how much better
It will be for everybody In the
long run to have Ibis whole sec
tion developed "
Dosg'as shrugged. "The average
hvaeaa tnicg doesn't see things In
tie rMzx run'."
Asa tocsted the glasses on the
rl:ag:g figures on the scaffolding.
:dic. she leaned eagerly for
ward. Far 03t on the scaffolding,
beading over some newly poured
rmat, with the pail still In his
hsd, s'.ood her acquaintance ot the
etoantain spring.
While she watched him Intently,
b straightened up. and moved on
to another part of the scaffolding.
Among ail the other husky work
men, there was no mistaking his
frame and stature.
VI;b a barely audible gasp, she
dropped the glasses, then on sec
ond thought quickly found the focus
again and Indicated that Douglas
was to look.
"Who Is be?" she aked with as
much casualness anil Indifference
as she could command.
Thoro was a curious, qulitlrai
stnllo In the attorney's eyes a he
put down the glasses. "Why, he's
a sort of hermit who lives In a hut
up here . In the mountains some
where, I believe "
A hermit! Anne smiled too and
glanced down Involuntarily at the
hand ho land kissed. If the knew
anything ntmut men, those had
been no hermit'- lips.
"Incldenlnl!y,""iimi:lns went on
In a bantering tone, "he's tho to
unpopular man In the Sierras!"
NEW YEAR PARTIES

Cotcher and children. Miss Kuiiier. 1
Hlodgott, OIm iUoilget, Mr. and
Mrs. Axel lllodcett and Mr. nnd
Mrs. A. L. Hlodgett.
Mr. and Mrs. loll l.entmnn and
rhttdren were dinner guest at the
home of Mra. Philip Heetebry New '
Year'a day.
Mr. and Mrs. Jtdin I-rtlekon rn-
"Oh Anne would hare
liked to pursue the subject further,
but she had so opportunity. Monte
and Bretton were approaching.
At close range. Bretton, f the
chief engineer, bad a swart, well
weathered face, keenly blue eyes
and a mouth which any man should
have known belter than to tamper
with. He made some parting re
mark to Morse, took off his bat to
Anne, and started off down the trail
which-led to the construction camp.
"I think we'd better be going,"
Morse observed, drawing out his
watch." There'a another little mat
ter I want to attend to on the way
home."
Ills confidential aid gave blin a
quick. Inquiring glance, and be
nodded briefly. "We're not going
to build any bridge," be said. "Bret
ton may a well understand that
first as last."
Douglas shrugged up bis shoul
ders and went on ahead down the
narrow trail toward the automobile.
Anne, who was walking with
Morse, broke a somewhat prolonged
silence. "I wonder what it would
be like to lire In a but In the
mountains like the er hermit
Mr. Douglas was telilng me about?"
"What hermit?" her companion
inquired.
The man in front turned. "Oh, 1
was just making a little joke, he
explained.
"I almost think I should like It,"
Anne went on thoughtfully, "the
hut in the mountains, 1 mean."
"Doubtless for 21 hours!' Doug
las remarked sagely, an lie quick
ened tip his pace a lit T lo and
swung around the next bend In the
trail a half-dozen feet ahead of the
others.
"So " Morse said reflectively,
his eyes on Anne, "a hut In the
mountains is most emphatically not
the proper frame for you. For some
women It might be at) right that
or a ranch lioue on the plains
even a tenement on the Kast side:
these are the settings best fitted
to bring out their particular quality.
But for you- "
She looked up curiouslj "Tor me
what kind of frame?"
Kor you a frame worthy of the
subject, a frame of gold, a back
ground of great rooms and spacious
corridors elegance, luxury, har
mony. That Is the only background
suited to you
"Hum-m, a lady In a frame."
Anne murmured whimsically. "I
don't beilere 1 should like it. I
would be always wanting to stop
out Into some other frame or some
other background that maybe did
n't milt me at all."
"Oh. no, you wouldn't. Morse
anred her. "not if the frame were
rich enough."
She shook her head, tugged mock
suffocatingly at her collar. "Any.
way, It sounds stuffy. I dont like
It!"
"What's all this talk about
frames?" Douglas asked as they
stepped Into the car. "You haven't
been buying a new picture, have
you, Morse? I thought you had al
ready sufficiently denuded Kuropel"
"No. I haren't." his employer an
swered, shrewd, half bantering, half
serious ayes on Anne, who had
turned pway her face and left only
the tip of a small scarlet ear for
his Irfpec'.Ion. "but I'm thinking
of btiylnrr on a masterpiece. I
rather think It will be the gem of
my coi'.ectlon!"
