at his friend.
"What's up, old man?,'
"Nothing," said Derek hastily.
'1But there is. Listen! You've
got a wonderful place. I know en-

is in fine fettle. It'g lovely coun-
try, good air, you're practically out

sort of life you've always longed
for. But I know you, too, and, in-
stead of jumping for joy=, you're in
the dumps. Own up! Isn't there
money to run the show?"
"Enough," Derek answered hast-
ily.
"Is your leg 'bothering you?"
"No. I shall always be a bit

Peter frewned.

doubts on this point.

said, "and I'll try to explain."
CHAPTER. IV
NOISE IN THE NIGHT
In the sitting room Peter lighted
his pipe and Derek a cigarette.
Derek gazed into the smouldering
peats and Peter, knowing his
friend, kept silence. Presently
Derek spoke.
"Peter, does the house feel all
right to you?"
"At first I thought it a bit
gloomy," Peter answered frankly,
"but then the cloud was right on
in top of it. Now the sun is out I
sink the ship, and so some clubs
shied away from the league.
In the Huron -Perth Baseball
League the Mitchell Legionaires
defeated the Clinton Colts in the
best -of -five series for the Intermed-
iate "C" 'Championship. This was
a fete in itself, since Clinton ha's
always been a strong club, but vic-
tory was more than just another
win—it meant for Mitchell their
third straight championship.
This team will now hit the In-
termediate "C" trail for the Ontario
Championship. Mitchell met Dur-
ham in the next round of the O.B.A.
playdowns, winning the first game
6-1, losing the second 4-3, but won
the third game on Saturday, which
was played. in Listowel, by the
score of 8-4. We understand that
Mitchell was to meet Delhi. 'apt
Wednesday, and hope to report
their progress in. next week's col-
umn.
A district team from Dashwood
has -advanced in the Intermediate
"D" playdowns of the O.B.A., and
will meet Port Rowan in the next
series. We would also like to re-
port that Auburn, although not big
in population, has come up with a
"big town" baseball team. TheAuburn 'Midgets have won the W.O.
A.A. Midget title, elbninating Chats-

glanced at the clock. "Supper in
ten minutes. We don't dress," he
added with a grin.
For supped there was a chicken
with new potatoes, green peas and
a gooseberry tart with real cus-
tard. They drank excellent cider.
"I haven't had such a meal for
three years," said Peter with unus-
ual emphasis.
"All off the piece," Derek told
him. "Now for a pipe and to bed
early. I have to be up at six. We
are singling turnips and then there
are two fields of hay to devil. That
storm won't have done it any
good." But next day turned "out

too soft for the singling," be told
Derek.
Some people would have found
it a terribly monotonous business,
driving up and down a -big field,
tossing the hay with the tedder.
But not Peter. He loved the hot
sun on his back, the light breeze
in his face, the cloud shaflaws sail-
ing across the valley. At the end
of the day he was tired and a bit
sore, but he felt iminensely well
and •magnificently bungry. After.
an excellent supper he and Derek
sat and smoked' and yarned over
their Army experiences.
"I didn't think there was a place
in. England so remote from the
war," Peter said, eI 'don't suppose
