The Huron Expositor, 1951-03-02, Page 7A CHARTER IX -- Synopsis Timothy Hulme, principal of a good but impoverished Ver- mont academy, lives a etudloua bachelor existence with only his aunt Lavinia for company. Timothy makes friends with a younger sister, Delia. Now Tim- othy has received a letter from a disagreeable trustee of the academy, Mr. Wheaton, calling him to New York. When he keeps his appointment with Mr. Wheaton he is told that he has snade a big mistake in admit- ting a Jewish boy as a student. Timothy meets his nephew, Canby Hunter, who gives him some suggestions about devel- ening the Academy. Canby goes on a skiing party in bad weather. They run across an auto accident in the mountains 1 Was Nearly Crazy With Fiery Itch - Until I discovered Dr. D.D. Dennis' fast relief - D. D. D.

He brings her, to Dr. Anson Craft for medical atten- tion. _ It did not take long forthem to learn what had happened. At about noon Canby and the three Academy seniors with him had just finished their sandwich lunch. They were starting the trip hack, but in the wild smother of snow they did not keep to their course very well. It had stopped snowing -when, after a long quiet, gliding along a tra- verse raverse course through the woods, they saw that, some distance be- fore them, the road crossed their course, and that farther up, half covered with snow, a car lay on its side in the ditch. They called to each other, pointed it out, took for granted it had been abandoned and were about to turn and tack back along the slope they were on, when. near it theysaw something moving. With a rush they started up the hill, poling themselves as fast as they could, but slowly at that, for the slope was steep. As they climbed they could see a re- current stir near the car. A wom- an, her head wrapped around with bloody bandages, was trying to raise the car with the jack. "She'd get up on her knees for a minute, work the lever three or four times, and fall -down in the snow." Your Business Directory MEDICAL DR. M. W.

Then they had raced to reach her and heard from her that a man was under the car ... "I thought thee of 'course it must be her father, or husband, or soreething-that's all I knew!-" snatched her away from tile jack and all heaving togett lifted the car up enoughsto pull out from under it -"what do you think? A little old French Canuck, with frizzled gray hair. She'd never laid eyes on him before that day. It seemed he was somebody's hired man that lived neighbor to her folks over where she'd been visit- ing. Mr. Dewey asked if the man tin- der the car had been killed. No, still breathing, Canby, said, but un- conscious, internally hurt probably. Well, what could be done there in theheaped-up snow, with two peo- ple badly injured? Impossible to get the car back in the road. It was the girl who had asked if the skis couldn't be lashed togeth- er to make a narrow sled, a cush- ioned seat from the car tied on it, and the man placed on that and pulled down the hill over the drifts to a house and a telephone. The man and girl left behind had waited there in the snow for hours, years, ages -he did not know how long -until first, the boy on skis came back with whiskey, and blan- kets, and then the slow woodsled, the horses wallowing in the drifts, with Doctor Craft poised impatient- ly on the side. "I kept her warm all the time, anyhow. I got out the other cushion from the car and made her lie down on it. I grabbed out the lining of the top of the car and put that over her, and built a fire. I just bad to sit there, trying to warm her hands, watching her get whiter -I'd listen 'to see whe- ther she was still breathing or not -and I'd climb up into the road to see if there was anybody com- ing -and I'd go back to rub her hands and listen to her breathing -anybody but me would have thought of something to do -but I didn't dare touch that bandage. You see she'd torn up a nightgown or something she got out of her little suitcase -think of the nerve of her, cut upethe way she was, crawling out from under the wreck and getting her head tied up some- how, and then trying to g -g -get that darned car jacked up!" Can- by flung his arms out on the table and dropped his head on them. His silence broke the spell which had held the others, leaning to his harshly whispered words, their faces blank white. They straight- ened themselves stiffly, took their eyes from the narrator for the first time, and looked at each other un- seeingly. The door behind them opened', closed, noiselessly. Doctor. Craft was there to issue commands: ab- solute quiet• in the house tonight, his wife would stay with the case till the roads were sanded and he could get another nurse down from thefAa,140 400Rital.. voRp, leas a 044cen�310'010ati b ;tv of f1 toe blood, NlaYbe a tr mita, eibzx, to narrow-? 1�, you, whij Q leo yo11g name is,'! -.If rougi►1)i ,to Clam by, sprawled forward i'i his ehalk to listen, 'cy911 go home and get4e bed, , You're just about" all in your- self." He went out the doge, Rios- ing it with infinite care behind WM. Back of theta, Timothy Hulme leaned faintly against the wa11i'and then let himself down into a chair because the droning in his ears made him too dizzy to stand up. }Wise Peck had been the first to cdllect herself enough to speak peak. "Thedoctor doesn't allow anyone with her, Mrs. Washburn. He even had the nurse sit put in the living room with the door ajar. It's not only her eyes, xou know. Nor the lose of blood. it's the results of shock. The doctor "Oh, did he? Well; all ,right, Pll do what the nurse did then. If the doer's ajar, I can sit close to it and talk through the crack. I'm just a useless old woman, you know. I've nothing else to do." Timothy heard again the raw in- solent rudeness of Canby's voice. "Say, that's a swell idea of yours, Mrs. Washburn! Too good for you to keep to yourself, by heck! I'll stay with you on that, I'll sit there, too. Fm just a useless young man, you know. I haven't got anything else to do either, see? Any more'n you have. Skiing's over for this year." Timothy once more saw Canby's impudent grin, as he look- ed around the table, careless of making a fool of himself. And because he was there, al- ways there, Canby was the one who welcomed her as Susan groped her way back to health. Leaden -limbed, impotent, incredulous, Timothy had watched the current getting away from him, faster and faster. The moment had passed -when had it gone by him? No, no, it had never been there -when, risking all on one stroke, he might have given Canby the peremptory order to drag the old woman away bodily, and leave him alone with Susan. Mr, Dewey now stood up and picked his way along the rock to the other fire. "Moon's due to rise in three-four minutes," he said. Timothy got to his feet and step- ped with the old man from one to another of the sleeping boys, giv- ing each shoulder a shake, saying clearly in their ears "The moon will soon be up. If you want to see the moon rise, now's the time." They grunted, nodded, and sat up, or propped themselves unsteadily on one elbow and looked around sleepily. Presently Timothy's professional conscience, reaching him on a re- flex habit, bade' him make sure that all was well with those en- trusted to his protection. He turn- ed his head to look and saw that, as he had thought, the boys had collapsed again into sound sleep. No one of them was stirring. Bend- ing his eyes more intently, Timothy saw that the blanketed form near- est him was stirring. He rose to his feet, he took the two or three steps that brought him to the boy, stooped, put his hand on his shoul- der. It was Jules. Wide awake, he lay looking out over the silver - Ham -Potato Bake A real rib -sticking dish to 'build a meal around is this one of scal- loped potatoes made with condens- ed cream of celery soup. The "lady of the house" as well as her family will like the combin- ation -it's so easy, so good. The celery soup, whin serves as a ready-made sauce for scalloping, has a special flor all its own. Teamed with potatoes, a little bit of ham goes a long way in this dish. If you don't have ham, use canned luncheon meat for equally good results. • Ham -Potato Bake 3 cups thinly sliced, cooked pot- atoes (4-6 medium potatoes) 1 to 2 cups cubed cooked ham - or canned luncheon meat 1 i§mall onion, finely chopped 2 tablespoons chopped parsley 1 can (11/h cups) condensed cream of celery soup 1/2 cup milk. Mix together the cooked potatoes, ham (save some for the top), chopped onion, and parsley in a 11/2 -quart casserole. Blend together the celery soup and milk; gently stir this liquid through the potato mixture. Put some of the cubed ham over the top. Bake in a mod- erate oven (350 deg. F.) for thirty minutes. Makes 6 servings. To Crunch On Cheese -stuffed celery makes a delightfully crisp companion to a bowl of hot soup, most any kind. Fill stalks with softened Cheddar cheese; insert pickle chips in cheese. Food Economy Tip To keep family food costs under control, work condensed soups in- to your menus. Cream soups ate grand for making the most of ra small amount of meat; you can serve the creamed meat otter toast. Cream of mushroom sone With, a lit- tle ham Or Create Of celery eetip with oubpdt canned ljthcheen Jneat are good combinations. And, at other times, often a bowl of hot soup is just the one extra dish you need to round out a meal -such as a vegeta.ble dinner plus cream of chicken soup?' Lenten Soups • Condensed soup is one of the good prepared foods that fits your special menu needs during Lent. You'll find there are four kinds of condensed soup without meat or meat products. They are tomato, cream of celery, green pea a.ncl vegetarian vegetable. SOLUTION TO, BOXWORD PUZZLE ACROSS DOWN 1. Omaha 1. Opaque 4. Leaky 2. Adult 7. Cup 3. Abeam. 8. Broke 4. Leap 10. Abuse 5.

Timothy pulled out his handker- chief end passed it to the boy, who blew his nose, handed back the handkerchief and pointing to a straggly small bush near him said, his. voice cracking grotesquely from treble to bass and back, again. "Pro- fessor Hulme, maybe I'm crazy, but when that bush came out of that darkness it c -came singing! vHon- est! Do you think I'm crazy? Oh, .gosh, I wish my darned voice would stop changing." "Yon probably weren't quite waked up, Jules," suggested the teacher calmly. "Sound to me as if you were dreaming. Rather a nice dream." looked at the fire. Night was no more. The new day began. The day wind woke. The column of smoke slowly, gently, bowed itself to the sun. "So be it," said Timothy Hulme, and got stiffly up to go on with his teacher's work of arousing those who sleep. Renewel like eagles by long dreamless sleep, the troop of youth clattered up the trail. From time to time they looked back over their shoulders at the old and middle-aged men soberly bringing up the rear. They crossed the top of Dowling Hollow. This meant that they were halfway to Hawley Pond, "What say we get our breaths?" suggest- ed Mr. Dewey, sinking down on the huge trunk of an old fallen yel- low birch. Then h, fell to talking about Mr. Wheaton's health, said not to be very good of late. "How old is he?" asked Timothy. "Not old at all. Can't be more'n seventy." He got stiffly to his feet, and snapped his fingers at the old col- lie. The boys scrambled up and started on along the trail which here, following the old 'wood road, was wide enough fol- several of them to walk abreast. Jules be- gan to sing the Academy song; and the others joined in. Mr. Dewey hummed the air un- der his breath. The boys van- ished around a turn- of the road. The two men walked soberly side by side. Mr. Dewey's thoughts went back to the question of Mr. Wheaton's health, and he asked, "D'you s'pose he'll remember the Academy in his will? You'd think he might to hear him go on about how much he thinks of it and all." Pie asked as if Timothy could know, "D'you suppose he might think of leaving as much as ten thousand?" Mr. Dewey, walking more and more slowly, looking down at the green and gray carpet of miss lichen. thrusting out his lips thoughtfully, finally halted Timothy, laying a hand on his arm. "Say, T. C., why ain't this as good a time as any" -he looked around the empty forest -"to tell you that I've made my will to leave what I've got to the Academy? Tain't much. It comes, to take it all in all, woodlots and mill and savings bank books, to about ten thousand. That what made . me, I guess, think of that much as maybe com- ing from Wheaton, too." There was no breath left over for more than an occasional brief question and answer during the long climb down. With a. pang of alarm for himself, Timothy note: -1 that Mr. Dewey looked very old as well as entirely exhausted. ''Don't you want me to step ahead and get my car out, and take you home?" he asked, his solicitude too audi- ble. "No, I do not," said the haggard Rid man, nettled and belligerent. 'I'm a-goin' to the office to see if there's a letter from Wheaton come in." They limped on in dogged silence then, footsore, unshaven, their coals over their arms, their faded shapeless clothes stained brown and green by damp earth and moss. ,and climbed slowly up the worn marble steps into the echoing cor- ridor with its musty smell of age � and chalk dust and mice, into the high-ceilinged, dingy room that was the Principal's office. A good deal of mail was heaped on the Principal's desk, Mr. Dewey' dropped his hat on the floor and sank heavily into a chair; Timothy The 13aturda'y , �uig'ht e17•'i$it ht 110 urinal'W.T workshop Siima'xed 4 TO veryr.sue0ess1u1 three weeks:' .cou,Ta accordixgg to reports • Mise Audrey Spencer: of the -W.I. Bruch, Qtni terio Department of Agriculture, r Toronto, expressed, her delight in: a brief address (the 'Workshop. is • her 'baby'). Workshop was insti- tuted not to teach new crafts blit to revive and preserve the old ones. There is something neve about leathercraft or weaving or needlework - but the exquisite craftsmanship of our ancestor:;, is something that we, apparently, have to learn, if we can. Miss Anna P. Lewis, W.I. Branch director, was present for the Zur- ich Workshop closing, contributing to the program by showing her coloied pictures of the Denmarlt trip (to the A.C.W.W. convention) and displayed samples of the crafts of the various countries she visit- ed. Brief messages were delivered, also, by Mrs. Thomas Meyers, Zur- ich, F.W.I.O. Board director; Mrs. A. Roche, Zurich president; Mrs. Kirkland, district president, Hur- ondale. Following community sing- ing, the Workshop instructress, Miss Beverley Bryan, the W. I. branch vieltors, and presidents and secretaries of branches in the area, were presented with corsages of put out his hand to sort the let- ters. The one they were looking for was at once visible to Mr. Dewey. Timothy handed it across the table to the old man. Timothy was still looking down at a letter from Delia Barney when Mr. Dewey said surprisingly, "Well, the dirty skunk" and laid the let- ter on the table. "Read it. Read it, T. C.," he murmured, dropping his head wearily back and closing his eyes till Timothy had finished. It did not take long; the words, entirely legible in very black let ters on white, leaper out to say that Mr.Wheatou had long ago and more than once told Hulme to get rid of that incompetent old jani- tor, Melville Griffith, and now was the time to do it. Anybody could see that he was the one who had left the faucet turned on. Here was the talking point for dismissing him which Mr. Wheaton had long been waiting. "Look around and locate a family man with young children who's been out of a job for some time -there must be lots of them in Ashley since the shut- ting down of the chair factory - you could probably get him actual- ly for less wages than Griffith. He wouldn't dare hold out for more anyhow, no matter what he had been earning." The two men looked at each oth- er in a long silence. Finally Mr. Dewey remarked in a conversa- tional tone. "Wa-al, I guess mebbe I could get a couple o' hundred for the oak on the Tyler lot. 'T'aint really big enough to cut yet, but . . ." "Oh, never mind. I've got near- ly two hundred and fifty in the bank I could spare," said Timothy. He laid the letter down. Mr. Dewey silently reached for it and dropped it into the wastepaper bas- ket. As he turned his head to do this, he caught sight through the open window of someone on the far corner of the level ground In front of the Academy, and looked to see who it was. Timothy followed the direction of his eyes and saw a tall, red-headed boy pushing a • bicycle up the hill from the village. The boy left his bicycle collapsed in a tangle of glittering wires and started across the empty tennis collie. He had a white envelope and a yellow one in his hand. He appeared at the open door of the Principal's office and handed the two envelopes to the Chairman of the Board of Trustees. "Wait a minute, Burt," said Tim- othy. "Maybe there's an answer. Here. I'll sign for that special de- livery." Mr. Dewey; had roused himself enough from his limp exhaustion to lean a little forward in his chair as he took the two envelopes from the messenger. He tore open the yellow one first, looked at it blank- ly, said, "What d'you s'pose that means?" and passed it on to Tim- othy. It read, "Sending important letter to you special delivery mail today. Gilbert W. Paine." Mr, Dewey tore open the letter, ben to read. turned very white, and handing the letter to Timothy. said. "Here, you' tell me what's that." nay had forgotten the Academy senior standing back of them.

The crafts of a country are in- extricably woven into that coun- try's culture.
