Timothy gets the news that Mr. Wheaton, a trus- tee of the academy, has died of apoplexy, and will leave the academy a rich endowment on condition that its name be changed and that It excludes all Jewish students. Timothy declares that if the terms are accepted he will''resign-other faculty members speak in fav- or of acceptance. During the next' two months a bitter fight rages in the town, as people take sides on the issue. When it came, it was as quickly over, Timothy thought, as being electrocuted. He was in his office one evening and Mr. Dewey sat waiting till Timothy was free for the campaigning calls at the farms which they had planned for the evening. The door to the corridor was at the extreme right of Timothy's field of vision. He saw Canby come swinging in, his head up, not shambling marching. To Mr. Dewey, to Timothy's profile, to'the room, to the•universe, Canby cried out, "I'm engaged to be married." ' Your Business Directory MEDICAL DR. M. W.

Mr. Dewey was saying, aston- ished, ston ished, curious: "You don't say! Who t?" The question sent Canby into fits' of laughter. othy was lost, literally, materially lost. For a moment he did not know where he was, nor who the two people were in the room 'with him. Yet after a time he heard Mr. Dewey say- ing, "Well, now, Canby, you've certainly go yourself one of the nicest. I'd like to've married her myself, if I was the age to. Wouldn't you, T. 0.?" To Canby, coming up close to him now„ looking at him out of shining eyes, Timothy held out his right hand. Canby laughed nerv- ously and said something to Mr. Dewey. Then he went to the door, lifted his arm high. over his heads in an elated gesture, waved a smil- ing, already half absent good-bye to Timothy, opened the door, dos- ed it after him. On the day in July when Canby and Susan drove away to be mar- ried, leaving behind them those hasty, doubly signed notes for Delia, for Aunt Lavinia, for "Uncle Tim," for Miss Peek, Timothy, sit- ting at his desk in the study where he had gone with a conscious di meted effort of his intelligence but where he could not work, suddenly had a clear sight of the 'bogey. He had till then gone through the day very creditably, reading impassively the note for him he had found at. the breakfast table with its, "We felt you were just too busy to bother about anything but this big fight on your hands." Aunt Lavinia, not very much in- terested by one wedding more or less in the world, had to say about the good sense the youpg people had shown in getting the thing ov- er with -at a minimum of expense and bother. Like a man in the i!entist's chair sitting through the killing and extraction of a nerve, Titnothy had sat grimly through his daily hour with Delia -an hour filled not with history and mathe- matics, but with a wild outburst of horrified bewilderment from the girl. * * * Timothy had gone to bed at once after the mass meeting, but not to sleep. He leaned from tlhe window, measuring with his eye the dis- ance to the great stone doorstep wo stories below. Someone was itting there, A man. A man with his elbows on his knees in the at- itude of waiting. As Timothy strained his eyes hrough the starlit darkness, in- redulous of what he seemed to ee, the hammer -stroke of total stonishment driving out for the nstant everybhing else from his ead, the man, as if feeling him - elf observed, turned his head, ooked up, saw Timothy at the win - ow and got quickly to his feet. It was not a mad. It was a tall oy. It was Eli Kemp. Eli was vot!oning, was calling in a low oice, "Can I come up, Professor Hulme? It's Eli. Are you awake? an I conte up a minute?" With- ut waiting for an answer, he )ushed open the never locked front oor and came into the house. "I got an idea, Professor Hulme! couldn't wait to talk it over with ou, so I got dressed and came o sit on the front step and wait ill I heard somebody stirring round in the morning." Timothy got back into bed and ulled up the sheet. "Take a chair, li, and let's hear," he said. But Eli could not sit still. Pac- ng fast up and down the room, he egan to talk. After ten minutes imothy said, not skeptically at 11, "Hold on! Let's go into my turfy and get out some road maps nd the Vermont register. And ome Windward county town re- orts. By the Lord Almighty, Eli, believe you've got something!" It was black night when they 'ent into the study. The first sig - al from the outer world that cached them was, astonishingly, he hrealcfast smell of coffee. Timothy took up a typewritten age and said, "Let's see how it ounds, now we've got it all put ogetber." He read: "Before au- omobiles were in general use Ver- ont towns were literally isolated, xcept in those places where one f our railroads ran two or three rains a day. Every community as shut up to its own resources nd its own people from Novem- er to May. Within the last few ears these conditions have been ansformed.

During hie senior year at the Academy, he organized, together with Mr. William Peel, anti" ran an Academy bus service used by the athletic teams for their out:pf- town games. He now proposes, giving his full time, to employ their two buses (capacity thirty passengers each) for the daily transportation of students from the smaller hill towns. Heretofore, on ly such students from those towns have been able to attend the Acad- emy as were able to pay board in Clifford. Mr. Kemp and Mr. Hulme of the Academy, after careful cal- culation figure .that if this plan is carried out, from sixty-five to se euty new students can be dail brought to the Academy. Thi would increase the student body to about two hundred." He laid clown the paper. Eli, do you realize that that number of new students will bring in clear, more than four thousand dollars for the Academy every yeas, and give you fair pay for your time?" Eli's face paled. He sprang up with a cry. "But that ain't any thing compared to what it'll mean for the kids in those back towns! Professor Hulme, we're a-goin' to win that 'lection," he said. Mr. Dewey :arrived early, cast his vote and stood on the marble walk at a decorous legal distance from the Town Hall all that day until the ballot boxes were turn- ed. Bev' (Continued from Page 2) four weeks before lambing, or large soft lambs may result. If the ewes are in good condi- tion and good quality legume hay is being fed, grain is usually un- necessary. Should the ewes need grain, one-half to one pound of a mixture of equal parts of oats and bran can be given from about one month before lambing. Fresh water and a mineral mix- ture should be available at all Timothy knew in his bones that he was beaten. Looking at this check list. he said,. "Old Mrs. Bas- set hasn't conte yet. How about driving over to get her?" He thought, "By- tomorrow Aunt Lav- inia and I will be starting to move up to the Crandall Pitch house." Down the street came Canby's old Jalopy. He drew up to the Town Hall, helped Susan out, and when she vanished into the crowd stood with one foot' i'th'e running board. The clock in the tower of St. Andrew's boomed once. Half -past four. Timothy crossed the road to ask Mr. Dewey to go back with him to Dewey House and rest. The old man was as pale as his own ghost. "Not till the last vote's in," he said firmly, And, "Good' afternoon, Deacon Galusha. We'd begun to wonder where you were, Your vote's needed to help the town stand by the principles we were brought up in." Timothy stood beside him till the church clock struck five and Ezra Warner stuck his head out of a second -story window to an- nounce to those below, "Board of Civil Authority is just a-turnin' the boxes. No good lettin' anybody else up." Mr. Dewey nodded gravely to Timothy and walked beside him around the corner to Dewey House. Presently to his surprise Canby Hunter appeared, shambling along on the sidewalk towards them, his hands buried in his trousers pock- ets. "Thought I'd come along and wait here till the count's made," the explained. "I brought Susan over to vote. She's gone to see Miss Peck." Timothy- said nothing. "How about sittin' down?" sug- gested Canby, letting himself tall in a heap on the porch, half lying,' times. A mixture of equal parts of salt and feeding bone meal is ade- quate unless specific deficiencies such as iodine or cobalt exist in which case the necessary mineral should be added to the mixture. Pastures Respond To Superphosphate Experiments on pasture fertili- zation and management over a six- year period on 73 Illustration Sta- tions in Eastern Canada and Brit- ish Columbia, showed a marked in- crease in yield from the use of sup- erphosphate and only a relatively small increase from the use of pot- ash and nitrogen when these fer- tilizers were added to the mixture. Illustration Station officials at Ottawa pointed out that an applica- resting one elbow on the floor, his head on his hand. "I've been sitting down," said Timothy, continuing to stand. Canby was the one whose ear first caught the sound of someone running. He was on his feet with one bound. Eli Kemp came around the corner, so utterly winded that when he came within hearing dis- tance he could only croak, "'Sall right. We won. Foote's elected." He came on more slowly, spent and panting, and leaned against a tree, clutching at his side, able to gasp out only four words, "Hun- dred and forty majority." Timothy stood in a vacuum. He reeled back from the attempt to take in even one of its crowded implications for him. (Continued Next week) The Voice Of Temperance Ontario's liquor consumption for the year ending March 31, 1949, was 75,099,378 gallons. The cost to the consumer reached a total of $222,454,900. The revenue to the Ontario and Dominion Governments was $89,500,000. These figures are so big that they do not mean very 1 much to our minds. They should mean this, however, that a people cannot drink its way into prosper- ity, that the gain in revenue is a small thing compared with the loss in crime, accident, disease, broken homes, lost working hours and hos- pitaization costs. Our drink ball is -the measure of our- loss and our folly.-(Advt.).
