CHAPTER IV
VOU mean it right, I guess,"
I laid to Juddy'i offer to
help. "But well, kind hearts axe
more coronets and all that, but
: they don't make a cook out of a
society deb."
, "It would give me something to
. do," she said, hall to herself.
"O. K." I said. "I guesa I can
use you, Juddy."
. She stared at me. "What made
you call me that?"
- "I don't know," I said, and I
didn't "When do I start?"
"Right noW 11 you can snitch
couple of perch out of the river
before lunch time.'
It was more to sea Juddy, I
expect, than to pay his little bill
that fetched Angel back next
' morning.
"What's this niece stuff. Mom?"
"A stall." I told him. "Protec
' tlon. Keep off the grass. Use no
hooks. Beware the dog."
He shook his head. "That gal
don't need any barbed wire fenc-
- log. Say, Mom, what's the matter
- with her, anyway? I tackled her
, again about the Rogues' Dance.
Is there anything wrong with
that?"
"Did she act like thera was?"
"She didn't act like anything In
the girl line that I ever war up
, against"
;"Dont let It throw you. Big Boy.
It isn't personal. She's off the
world, that's all"
"Well, it just isnt natural," he
complained. "What are we going
to do to get her back into circular
., Won?"
"That's your problem," I told
him. But he'd put an Idea into
my head, just the same.
. . The sounds of spade working
Inside the stockade caught his ear.,
"That must be that louse, Oliver,:
, digging his Indians," he said.
"Where do you get that louse
stuff?"
He grinned. "He'd like to give
me the heave-O out of school."
i "What fort Don't he appreciate
your giant intellect?"
"He's sore because he thinks I
elected his course for a snap."
' "Did you?" .
"Sure I did. It always was a
nap till he came. Now It's a
grind. I'd like to go over and
crown him."
He listened again and his face
got thoughtful. "Maybe it isn't
Indians he's digging for at that"
"What else would it be?"
- i "I told you there was a gold
(strike back in the hills."
;. "This isn't the hills, by BO good
(miles."
' "No. But there might be a wash
idown the river. Ill bet that's it
IIH bet those dead Wasaws or
iCoosaws or Seesaws or whatever
Ithey were are only a cover. I
(wouldn't put it past Oliver. He's
smart, that guy. But he isn't hu-
man."

to my duty by my traveling

gilly prejudices against skunks.
There's no more peaceable animal
In creation. Like all his kind, Dolf
ds dignified, maybe a little stand
offish, but he is always the gentle-
. man unless somebody starts push
ing b'm around
i Nobody was in sight so I slipped
(the leash and Dolf went out ton
a looksee. First he walked all
! around the grubwagon to make
' isura that everything was Jake,
Ithen he jogged over and sniffed
lat Loren Oliver's footprints and
- the stockade door, and finally he
lloped across and disappeared
idown the steep little cliff that
dropped to the river bed.
. A big old tree trunk stuck out
dnto the stream, and a , funny,
Isquatty little man in a queer
Jacket and an outlandish red cap
was fishing from it and talking
ipleasant and friendly to my pal
- who sat on the shore watching
him. Only I couldn't understand
the language he talked in, and I
doubt if Dolf could. Pretty soon
- Redcap caught a small chub, took
. it off the hook, carried it in and
loffered it to Dolf. Dolf under-
jstood that, all right He sat on
hls hind legs and ate the fish and
. waved his paw for thank you like
,;I taught him.
; I "Well I'll be a thlssenthatl" I
isaid. Something told me it was
the beginning of a beautiful
friendship.
The little man got up and made
a Jerky, foreign bow. I opened
' him up with some questions and
ha told me, In his slow, broken
way, that he fished there days
when he couldn't find any odd
jobs to do, which was most days,
and he hoped he wasn't going to
be in my way. While we were
getting acquainted, there was a
." heavy buzzing sound, far off and
far up.
Well, it was nothing but the
north-bound mail plane. But the
little foreigner threw his hands in
the air, and up the bank he went'
He made a run for the stockade
and swarmed right up over those
high paillngs like a squirrel and
; fell into the enclosure. When I
' got there I could hear him moan

said. The man went back to
his tree where Dolf was waiting.
"Who is he?" I asked Oliver.
"They call him Old Swoby. He's
a Slovene refugee."
"Crazy?"
"Only when an airplane comes
over. He saw his wife and two
children gunned to death by a
playful aviator. Who wouldn't be
crazy?"
I looked at his eyes; they were
hard with anger, and sorry at the
same time. And I thought how
his voice had sounded when he
was comforting the poor devil.
"Doc," I said. "I guess I've been
misinformed. I guess you're hu
man after all."
The Feederia caught on quick.
like it generally does. Business
kept coming in steadily, and there
were times when I was glad of
Juddys help.
Angel kept on trying, it got
him nowhere. She was off men.
Definitely. After several score
less innings he threatened to get
sore. He said he guessed thera
were other gals within reach.
Who ever chose Juddy Queen of
the May, anyhow? That line.
Well, the idea ne a piamea
earlier had been flickering and
now it blazed up and illuminated
the old brain like a candle In a

speech from her "that if some

heaved her into the social whirl

"The Rogues' dance. Simple."
