WHAT HAS HAPPENED Ralph Campbell was one of the Virginians that believed family traditions and sectional loyalties came first in either war or peace. His older son. Macklyn, agreed with him and gave up a commission as colonel in the U. S. Army to serve the Confederacy. Ralph's younger son, Colin, the judge of the district of Denbury, was torn between adherence to his father's wishes and his feeling of duty to the Union. , Besides ibis problem. Colin Is having troublj with his fiancee, Jeannie Dare, She Is not tolerant of his courI tesy to two new acquaintances he made when presiding at a trial. Ling and Ann Stewart from the backwoods region of Hobbs Creek. The promise of diversion from his problems that is presented by Ling’s invitation to hunt for game at Hobbs Creek is extra alluring to Judge Campbell under the circumstances. However, he feels duty' bound to visit petulant Jeannie. . . . CHAPTER 6 TV7HENEVER Colin Campbell W had thought of his future with Jeannie Dare—and he had thought of it less and less frequently in the three months since hes return from school in Baltimore, he admitted—he had envisioned a life at Quail Wings. Now with his brother Macklyn and his family coming home to stay, with two like-minded adversaries in the house, perhaps he needed a roof of his own. But where? Quail Wings was his home and he loved it, but he had no particular love for Denbury and its society. The two things that bound him to Denbury were his work and Jeannie. Jeannie! As her image rose before his eyes, he realized that he W’as sure of nothing. Jeannie, too, had envisioned life with him at Quail Wings as mistress of the finest plantation for miles around. Colin felt suddenly and strongly that much of her feeling for him was bound up in this vision. After his stallion, Robin, turned in, at the driveway to Dare’s Landing, Colin handed him over to a stableboy. He hesitated a moment before climbing the front steps and lifting the brass knocker on the massive door. “Is Miss Jeannie at home?" he asked the houseboy who answered to his knock. “No, suh. Miss Jeannie gone callin’." “Is Mr. Tom at home?” “Come in, suh.” He escorted Colin down the hall to the study. Tom Dare, who had been working at his desk, rose with his hand extended when Colin came in. He was a man who Would command a second glance in any crowd. His face was ugly and yet not unattractive in the manner of a bulldog’s. His features were set into a pugnacious expression. His I eyes were ordinarily expressionj less and seldom offered she slightest hint about his thoughts. Almost forty years ago, with two hundred pounds in his money belt bequeathed by a thrifty merchant father, Tom Dare had sailed from EwrlanH to make his fort a- 1 * A

DECATUR CATHOLIC HIGH By Theresa Laurent
It doesn’t seem possible! It seems like only yesterday that, we were ready-' ing ourselves for! the start back toi school, but nextj week ends the'; first six - weeks? period at DCHS. ’ Tests will be giv-‘
en Monday through Friday on material covered thus far. Say, kids, how do you rate so far? Will you be proud of your first report card? ‘ —D.C.H.S.— Tomorrow is the first Friday of the month. As is customary, breakfast will be served to Students in grades three through twelve, who have received Holy Communion on that morning. Serving the breakfast will be the senior class. - D.C.H.S.— Volunteers for grades four up to and including eight will participate in the annual magazine drive. To increase subscriptions to Catholic magazines and thereby encourage good Catholic reading, is the primary purpose of the campaign. There are also secular magazines on the list, but chiefly advocated are the subscriptions to Catholic magazines. —D.C.H.S.— A special offers has been made by the America magazine to the high school student body. If at least 25 students subscribe to this magazine, the regular price of SB.00 will be reduced to $5.75. The America, foremost publication in the Catholic press, is a weekly publication. Students who are seriously considering this offer are becoming increasingly conscience of some publications coming out under Catholic auspices. —D.C.H.S.— October 18 and 19 will see students from DCHS attending the national Catholic rural life conference. Though the conference
tune in America. Now, it was rumored, his wealth exceeded that of even the most affluent planters. He said, "Jeannie's gone to see Laura Talmadge. She should return soon.” She had known he was coming, Colin thought, and he tried to mask his irritation. Tom saw through the mask. “During my life, Colin, I’ve found the answer to a few riddles but woman is one riddle I’ve never understood.” Colin grinned. “I’ll wait if I may.” “You are very welcome. Have you read the newspapers since the election? War seems nearer with every passing hour." "You believe that, too, do you?” Colin asked. “You mean you think there is some hope?” “That depends on the new president." “You don't expect anything but trouble from that gorilla,” Tom Dare growled. “Have you read any of his speeches?” “All that ’ have seen printed. He seems like an eminently sensible and reasonable fellow for a Republican.’! “Sensible? Why, he talks like a raving lunatic with all this business of a nation not being able to exist half slave and half free. It’s existed perfectly well up to now. Not, mind you, that I don’t believe all this talk of secession isn’t lunacy, too. But the states that are seething with propaganda will leave the Union sooner or later, Tm sure of that. There are too many fools in responsible positions, North and South. Some idiot will bring about an outright act of war and—” Tom Dare shrugged and moodily continued, “that will be a black day for the South. She may fight to the last man, but she cannot possibly win.” “Why?” Colin could not help feeling a little angry, although he held the same opinion. Tom Dare laughed. “Don’t take me wrong. Man for man, the Southerner is more than equal to the Northerner, though I question local opinion that he’s five times as good. Even if he were, this will not be a war of men alone. It will take factories, money, railways, ships—and in these the North is way ahead of us. The South may fight for as long as* two years with the resources at her command and those that ingenuity may create. But what will happen when everything’s exhausted?” “Much as I dislike to admit it, I agree with you,” Colin sighed. “I trust I’m Interrupting nothing too momentous.” Jeannie had come in so silently that neither man had heard. She stood in the open doorway, her cheeks rosy A . _ . ... . .
concerns primarily the rural pupils, city students will get a great deal out of meeting many young people from all ever the United States and hearing about rural problems facing youth and their solutions. The Very Rev. Msgr. J. J- Seimetz, honorary chairman of the conference, advocates the attendance of his parishioners at this convention. The Hotel Indiana in Fort Wayne will be the site of the national convention. —D.C.H.S.— A key-hole peeper looking into the chemistry lab would have seen gazes of sheer delight on the faces of the students as they “skillfully” bent glass tubing. Since, their simles have changed to frowns as they try to iron out some difficulties about the periodic table. Keep plugging juniors! —By Kathy Baker —D.C.H.S.— This week will be the delight of the juniors; for it is this week that they expect to receive their class rings. Just ask a junior if you want to know if they're beautiful rings. —D.C.H.S.— Students in grades one, seven, and nine were given the TB patch tests last Tuesday by the tuberculosis association. Results of the tests will not be known until later. —D.C.H.S.An establishment of a pep band within the school band has been a project of Mr. Morin. The band has as its purpose .to play at the home basketball games this season. It is not known as yet who has been chosen for this special group. —D.C.H.S.A group of majorettes will work with the pep band in so far as they will help to provide enterainment to spectators during the intermission of the games. This year’s majorettes will be Diane Rousseau Joan Gage, Judy Baker, Kathy Hain, Catherine Schnepp, Nancy Holthouse, Kathy Faurote, and Sharon Miller. Good luck,
from the autumn wind. Colin felt a sudden return of the old warm feeling and he knew again, as he had known in the beginning, that she was one of the most beautiful women he had ever seen or ever would see. Her lips were parted in a half-smile, but her eyes were teasing, 'Tm sorry to be late, Colin.” He said gallantly, “You are forgiven.” “My dashing knight! I’ll be down as soon as I’ve tidied up a bit. Don’t be completely tiresome, Father.” “Til try not to, darling." As Tom Dare droned mi about a shipment sent to England, Colin’s mind harked back to the day he had really become aware of Jeannie Dare. Riding quietly a trail bordered by trees beside the Connicon, Colin had halted his mount at the edge of a clearing and looked out. Close by there was a most beautiful girl. She looked to him somehow like a moonbeam who had ventured into broad daylight. Then he realized who she was and gasped, "Jeannie Dare!” She teased him, “I had no wish to frighten you, Colin.” “You—you’ve grown up!" •I’m almost eighteen.” “I haven’t seen you so "For at least a year,” she supplied. “Father decided to hide me away at Miss Darnley’s to Baltimore.” “I must say hiding agrees with you,” Colin said recklessly. "May I escort you home?” All that summer he saw her often, as often as he possibly could. Until that time, so intent had hfe been on his work, so eager in those first years out of law school to learn all there was to know about the practical ways in which the law could solve the : tangles people wove for themselves, that he had allowed no woman to disturb hint seriously. That summer, for the first time :he was powerless, helplessly drawn to this slim, silver-fair girl. , He, who had hoarded his leisure for reading or riding, found him- , self present at every ball. At first he had pretended to himself that . his attendance was mere sociability. But the pounding of his J blood at the sight of Jeannie’s face in a crowded room made a sham of his pretense. Jeannie, • more experienced than he for all i her youth, saw through it before he did. It was no surprise to her when one evening as they walked in the garden at Dare’s Landing he took her in his arms and between feverish kisses murmured brokenly, “I love you, Jeannie darling—marry me—” [ Before she returned to Baltimore for her final year at Miss Darnley’s, they were engaged.
