ELLEII'S DIARY Continued from page I was the rink-of-meadow to which brisk steps were directed. "Now' don't walk too fast and tire your- selves .out!" James put down the baskets of turnips he was carrying to the cattle to call from the yard. Skates over young shoulders, hockey sticks in hand - Jamie carried an extra one and small- ish. for three-year-old Mack's use -they were up and away to the .Vlot.her-farm of all, that is Alder-I loa. ' . . . What an ordinary farmstead! that is! And yet one that is strangely fascinating to the grand- children. The winding stream an millpond. the waste-gates with their musical flowings, the gray- gabled mill in its rich setting of trees, all lend interest and mys- tery to the place as do the fields and extent of woodlands about. No au-mmer bird or nest, no part- ridge in story, no pheasant liow- ever resplendantly plumaged, or rabbit or fox or other wild creature :s more bewltching to them than those found within the closes at Alderlea. so it is a good day in- deed which brings them to a fore- gathering there. And it has been a good week, Lilflli: which now boats out into 'I'ime'a stream of the past . . pleasant in regard to its weather and wholly pleasing alike to chil- dren and their elders. Days for school for the former and for the l'a.1'mers to gather to the yard their fire-wood and complete their the sewing. Days now appear which welcome the ”s:pi'ing" in- crease in stable and sty - calves presently named by the children. piglets content about the bosom of their dam. I- coo Yes, nice weather we have, though boughs are still bare and at times winds blow coldly about the eaves. Yet in strengthening sun- light, and lengthening days we find the'promise of a new season now in the offing. For it we wait . for another Spring. Lucy G. Clarklnf gifted Island poetes that was, wrote of it in we suspect. a. stern Winter of the long ago: . I "They know, the gaunt, uiilovely trees. Whipped by each icy blast, That Spring will come with gen- tle breeze- That Winter cannot last: Again in warmth of earth and sun, 1 The sap, the living sap shall! run. so do we know when life' has crushed .

Jerry was. convinced, Twombley had mur-' dered Joseph slinn, intending, with the smallest possible part of (J16 550.000 insurance money. to buy this deserted ore bank, of some value of which Angie Slinn, oi- J058lJh himself. or, it might be, one of Twombley's own ancestors, had given the astute broker special knowledge. Now the dead man's sis-tor, sonielioiw smelling out that crime, was-horrible as it might lseem - levying blackmail as the price of holding her tongue re- garding the shedding of her own brother's lilood. But before a cap- ital charge could be placed in the . hands of the police with any hope. that they would pursue the inves- tigation. there must be some proof that the iron mine was worth its piucliasc for even so small a sum as five thousand. Jerry wouldn't go back tonight to Ironburg. Instead, he struck down the val- ley that opened into the lake- boldly, across the lowlands, as- sured that somewhere there he must find another road to Almeri- cus. Nor was disappointment his reward. A group of fields passed. he came to a byroad; it brought him to a liighway. By knocking at the door of a farmhouse and arousing from sleep to wrath its Pennsylvania Dutch proprietor, Jerry learned that a certain cross- road would conduct him to Ameri- cus.

The sole person encoun- tered was a. large, fat man with whom Jerry collided at his second turning toward what he remem- bered as Elm Avenue, the main street. "who're you an' what do you want?" the fat man demanded. "If you come to that," Jerry countered, "who are you?" "Constable Campbell. You'd best speak up." "You wouldn't know who I was if I told you, because I'm not any- body of any importance. 1 don't belong llE'l'('.
