CHAPTER XV
"You—" Mark began to speak
to him, but he stopped short. It
was not worth while here; Burle-
son was right! He turned and
walked away into the hall.
IIe would not think of Pam;
that was over! It was like so many
things in his life—he had been
/Mgt away by adverse current.,
"That's over " he thought bitter-
ly making his way toward the
door,
Then someone called his name.
"Mark—Mark Grant!"
It was her voice and he stood
still. The blood rushed back to his
beart again and set it racing. She—
"Don't go—" she almost sobbed,
caught herself and tried to speak
firmly— "until I tell you—"
He bent his head, looking down
at her.
"What can you tell me now?"
"That I'mii still your friend!"
"Flow can you? You heard your
uncle—it's true, too, the accusa-
tion and the sentence were—what
they say."
"I knowl" her voice broke.
"Come in here—" she motioned to
an alcove room— "I—I must ask
you—"
"The jade god—tell me about it,"
she said quickly; "it means some-
thing—it meant.somethiug to you?"

"It meant everything, My uncle
was a collector of curiosities; it
was his fad—ire was rich," Mark
wet his dry lips. "They thought

Mark's gesture etpressed all the
hopeless futility of his young bat-
tle to save himself,

"If Uncle Herbert knew -411,
I'm sure he would have told!"
Pain exclaimed, '`Tie's a violent
tempered man, he's queer, but he's
just. I think he didn't know."
"It's certain Ise won't tell now;
I saw that in his face—when he
smashed that green god."
"Oh, I can't think he knew!"
she persisted.
Mark did -not answer this; he
stood looking at her silently. Like
everything else in his life this was
to end. But he wanted to remem-
ber her as she stood there. She
Iooked so young and brave! She
was brave to call herself his friend.
F.ven in the puzzle of her
thoughts of her uncle she felt his
eyes. they drew hers, she looked
up like a child, tears misting, lips
tremulous.
"Oh," she gaspers; "I ' hated
Landon — the coward!"
He smiled. Her hot tone cham-
pioned him! she was his friend.
"Von know everything now," he
said gently, "I was going to tell
you all but I couldn't -it's not
true! you believe that?"

CHRONICLES
of GINGER FARM
B
Gwendoline YP. Clarke
* * * 4• *
Was there ever a time when we
had so much reason to be thankful
for weather conditions? Just think
of those mountains of snow that
lined highways, byways, and bank-
ed almost every farm building in
the country, Now it has all gone
and without leaving any serious
flood conditions in its wake. Day
after day I look around and marvel
-and this chronicle records the
phenomena. One week I write of
snow -blocked roads, the next of
robins warbling, daffodils budding,
pussy -willows . bursting, yes, and
even of swamp frogs singing.
-
Never, since we started fanning,
have we known spring to come so
suddenly or so early.
* * *
I have been speci,Flly glad to
have better road conditions because
you see I have been on my annual
job of canvassing for the Red
Cross. At least that is what I am
supposed to be doing but every-
where I go I generally combine
canvassing with a nice little visit.
One place I called last week the
farmer had a horse to sell and I
had to see it so I' could telt Part-
ner about it: As a matter of fact
I looked, not at one horse, but
five, and had I been the farmer
it would have been a real grief to
part with any of them, At another
farm there was a new dog, and
was he ever a beauty! Just the
kind I have always wanted but
never had—an English collie with
long pointed nose—just like Lassie
of movie. fame. This fellow paced
around the kitchen table just as
Lassie paced back and forth in her
cage—you see he was a year old
and the place where I visited had
been his hone only for two days.
But he was quite happy. He spoke
for his supper, shook hands, played
"dead dog", jumped up on a chair,
and sat down when he was told.
If only I could have brought slim -
home with ate.
* * *
At two more farms I visited with
baby chickens, But I wasn't so
anxious to adopt them as we shall
have plenty of our own in a day
or two.
Another call resulted in a dis-
cussion on consolidated school
areas and at yet another farm I
was asked to sample oatmeal cook-
ies fresh from the oven—which
wasn't any hardship at all And of
course with each visit the Red
Cross was enriched. No need to tell
anyone these days what the Red
Cross is nor how it functions. I
just say "I ant collecting for the
Red Cross" and that's all there is
te. it,
Unfortunately all my canvassing
was not with farm folk whose
main interest was in their chickens
and livestock. There was also stark
tragedy. One farmer gave me a
really generous contribution. Half
an hour later he received word
