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.
He would not think of Pam;
that was over! It was like so many
things Su his life—he )tad been
swept awry 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
heart again and set it racing. She—
"Don't go—" she almost sobbed,
taught herself and tried to speak
firmly— "until I tell you—"
Fre bent his head, looking down
at her, •
"What can you tell the now?"
"'That I'ni still your friend!"
'How can you? You heard your
'uncle—it's true, too, the accusa-
tion and the sentence were—what
they say."
"I know!" her voice broke.
"Come in here—" she motioned to
art alcove room— "I—I must ask
your—"
"The jade god—tell me about it,"
she said quickly; "it means some-
thing—it meant something to you?"

how I never thought of, it then as
a thing that might clear me! He
said he was going to give It to

Mark's gesture expressed all the
hopeless futility of his young bat-
tle to save himseif.

"If Uncle Herbert knew—ah,
I'm sure he would have told!"
Pam exclaimed. "He's a violent
tempered man, he's queer, but he's
just. I think he didn't know."
"It's certain he 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.
Marks did not answer this; he
stood looking at her silently. Lilce
everything else in his life this was
to end. But he wanted to remem-
ber her as she stood there. She
looked so young and brave! She
was brave to call herself his friend.

thoughts of her uncle she felt his

"You know everything now," he
said gently, "I. was going to tell
you all but I couldn't --it's not
true! you believe that?" •

She nodded, speechless.
"It will never be cleared up, r

"Oh, it's cruel," she murmured.
"I've got to go," he whispered
at last.
She nodded, looking down, her
lips drawn close together.
He drew his breath hard. "If

'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
,phenonmena. 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 farming,
have we known spring to come so
suddenly or so early,
* * *
I have been specially 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 tell 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 Itis supper, shook hands, played
"dead dog", jumped up on a chair,
and sat down when he was told.
If only T could have broug'itt him
hone tvith •rue.
