Brewster states quite positively that

bush in bloom along the river, and ﬂowers in garden beds along the way.

Where such a. girl as Kay is concerned, dimensions are of no importance; but for the sake of the record, Kay was small, only a fraction over five feet. She was bare-headed today, and against her mother's prudent advice she wore neither sweater nor coat. She walked as though she enjoyed doing so, with diroulders straight and snug, and head high; and her heels clipped briskly. She seemed not to hurry, so easily she moved; yet for a person whose utmost comfortable

.stride was only a. little more than

two feet, she covered the ground at a surprising speed.

Her eyes were alert, and she missed nothing along the way. Small matters may assume a large importance in Carvel, remote from the passing world, isolate and self- contained. There is a railroad through Newﬂeld, some eight miles to tho north, at the foot of the Lake, and another at Dexter, seven miles to the south; but Carve! itself lies midway between the two lines, untouched by them. Even the main motor routes to the mountains pass to one side or the other; so that the town sees little of the transient stream of summer folk. There are a. few cottages on Coos Pond, three or four miles toward Newﬂeld; but these are for the most part owned by Carve! people, who use them as summer-homes or as resorts for week-end vamtiomis, or for winter outings when the snow lies devil on the ice across the pond.

The town itself is rather indus- trial than agricultural. White River, the outlet of the Lake, comes cascadin down the steep and rocky gorge northeast of Carve! and three mills use the water power thus made available. Charley Rad-

ford’s shingle null catches the ﬁrst fall; the Carve! ‘Woolen Mills, which have made old Luke Frame a wealthy man, are lower down; and nearer the foot, and at the very heart of the town, the Central New Hampshire Power Company has a plant and office buildins. filled day and night with the hum of turbine-

driven uynarnos.

The Post Oﬂice is diagonally opposite the entrance to the Power Company's offices. on the village square. A few stores and a. filling station cluster near, and so far as the business section of Carve! is concerned, that is all. But along Main Street there are pleasant homes, on well-spaced lawns, the houses fresh with clean whLe paint, thrifty sndseif-contained.

As Kay came to town today, folk went out of their way to meet her face to face for the pleasure cf her bright "Good Morning." In front of Chuck Webster's ﬁlling station. she overtook Lillian Redford, a few years older than herself, and slipped her arm through that of tho other girl. The gesture was sf- fectionate.

"Soon be vacation now, Iiillisn!" she said smilingly. Lillian taught in the Carve! school.

“I'll be glad of it," the older girl wearily agreed. “The children don't do any real work after the wee.“ gets warm. There's really no sense in keeping them in." They entered the Post Oﬂice and s9- Dmuched the wicket together. and Bu; Clemons-Ed Clemons was Postmaster-handed Kay two let- ters end s paper.

Kay, looking at her mail, cried: “There's one from Emily!" as hep- pily as though this were not ex-

peeled.

"Ob, I've been meaning to tell Lillian exclaimed. "bliss Farmer is ruigning smu- this year. I'm sure Emily can get her place. You know. she teaches the fourth grade. iilss Farmer hasn't told anyone but me, so if Emily ap- plies right away, who'll have the best chance."

"I'll tel! her," Key promised. "I'il write to her tonight."

"B10, Lil,” he said. “H10 Key! Got the mail, did you, Lil? Thought you'd. be at school by now.‘

“Yosr spurs are digging holes in

the cor," Lillian warned mm chidingly. "Got to go out east of town and work on some hot stuff." Elmer explained. "Mail for me?" Lillian shook her head. "Well, so long," said Elmer. He grinned at Kay, doubtfully,

"Be careful!‘ Kay warned him, smiling a. little. "Don't touch the wrong wim, or- anything!" Elmer was a linesman for the Power Company. -

"Check." he assured her. "But we've got to get everything in shape for the new boss. He's due the end of this week." '

The imminent arrival of a. new superintendent at the Power Plant was the big news of the day in Carve]. "Oh, who is he?" Kay ask- ed. Her father, as one of the older men in the organization, had held some vain ambitions, when the of- fice became ‘.1 a. month before She knew his grievous disappoint- ment when word came that the Place would be ﬁlled from outside.

“Ned Pastor, from Manchester," Elmer told her. "He graduated from Tech last year. His old man's a director in the Company." I

“I think it's s. shame," Lillian declared. "They ought to have put in a Carve! man." Her glance touched Kay, loyally; and Kay smiled her gratitude,

“ “I've seen him." Elmer declared.

CHAPTER II.

Lillian said ruefully: "Well, I'll have to get on to school." The two girls came out of the Post Office together, and Lillian turned one way and Kay another. She car- ried Emilyb letter in her hand, un- opened, for it was addressed to Mrs. Brennan. She stopped at the grocery, and George Hastings ap- proached to serve her. George was I 91W. he"! Willing man; a good. sober young man, Carve! said. His white apron was clean.

“IP10. Kay," he remarked. “Something today?"

"Two heads cf lettuce," Kay told him. “And have you good to- matoes?"

George said he had; he volun- tecred to deliver the things, but KEY shook her head. "I can carry them, well as not." she decided. “I'm 801mg right home, and it will NW0 Your truck e trip."

"Kw ﬂ-nything from Emily?" George said slowly. intent upon business in hand. A friendly amuse- ment showed for a moment 1n Key's eyes.

“A letter this morning," she ad- mitted. ' “Al! right, is she?"

“Of course, but I haven't opened it yet."

"I ain't heard for over two Wecko." George confessed. "I guess 5116 50h? Bet much time for writ- ing letters. And I dunno as I'm much of a hand at writing to her."

“She's ever so busy." Kay agreed, Zfou mustn't mind her not writ-

"Gosh. no!" George assented She's been mighty nice about it. though. I hear reg'lar. Well, it'll be good to see her back home to stay!" And he said: "I guess you'll be going down to her Commence- merit."

Kay laughed in happy certainty. "I should say I will.” she declared. “I've been planning on it for four years. I wouldn't miss it for—any- thing!"

George nodded, and he said dig- fldently:

“I kind of flglued I might be in Boston about that time, might go out and see her, f! she weren't too

busy. Wrote and told her "so." He added doubtfully: "But she didn't say anything."

George remarked. "Your pa. fold me, last night." ,

"Elmer told mo, this morning," Kay . "I didn't see father last night. He was late."

“I walked home with him," George explained. “Feel better to- day, does he?"

Before opening the letter, Kay and her mother went into the liv- ing-room that was the heart of the house. Mrs. Brannan had nus- laid her glames, and Kay found them for her, beside the sink iu the kitchen. When she returned Mrs. Brennan adjusted the glasses and carefully toro of! the end of the envelope and began to read the letter aloud. Kay leaned over the chair back, her own eyes follow- ing her mother's along the neatly written lines.
