UP HILL. Our limbs, in some grotesque way. seem 'hitched directly to our hearts. When the heart is light we tread on air and our arms are wings When the heart is leaden level ground feels like a steep hill and a hill becomes a perpendicular cliff. With coldness between John and herself, between herself and Lillian Blake, and between the Blakes themselves, for aM of which she now began to blame herself, Edith Ferrol felt her limbs leaden as she went about her new enterprise. Only a day ago her plan to supplement their income by selling the goodies she ma4e at home aeemed to lead straight 01 of all difficulties, especially since Mrs. Carter had given the generous order. Then came the disheartening breach between her and those from whom she expected cheer and support and lo! the ordinary walks of life became an uphill climb. Firm prospects took on the uncertainty of dreams too good to prove true. Suppose Mrs. Carter decided she did not care for the Janfsand cakes and goodies Edith made? Then not only the labor but the money Edith put into the venture would be thrown away. Oh, the money especially thu money! Edith went about with a burden of "supposes" weighing down her mind, heart and spirit. But still she went on with her work. Therein lies the spirit of real courage to keep on plodding whUe the mind says, "No use!" the heart says "I'm tired!" and only the spirit says "Keep on! Don't know why, but keep on!" And Edith kept on, kept on, kept goin? through the motions. If we valued the spirit at its real worth, the courage Edith showed would have brought her rich reward. But it was dollars and cents she needed, not soul development. Fortunately for her, riches of the spirit sometimes coin themselves into currency of the realm. Several days after she delivered Mrs. Carter's order she got a letter with a monogrammed "C" on the envelope. When with beating heart she opened it a lavender colored check fluttered out. It was only later, when the uumb feeling of suspense had melted into tears of relief, that Edith saw a note with the check. "Danville. At Sunday dinner. My Dear Mrs. Ferrol A company of six at dinner at my house have voted your delicacies delicious, and want more. Enclosed is my check and good wishes from Mrs. Norval Carter." The burden fell off Edith's heart and with it the shackles from her limbs. She fairlv flew about the neigh

borhood, interviewing housewives on '

the subject of buying her homemade products. She met with only moderate response. But to one who has climbed up hill with a burden of discourogement, walking on level ground is easy. Edith marketed, cooked.

baked, preserved, concocted and delivered her orders with such eagerness that the children begged for the privilege of helping her, so much it seemed like play. And there were constant wonderful bowls to "lick out." Strangely enough, Edith's very success was what kept her husband from making the overtures he really yearned to profter after the coldness between them. He realized he had given her no encouragement at the outset of her enterprise, that he had even added to her burden by quarreling with her over Lillian Blake. He had long become ashamed of his action and would frankly have acknowledged It to Edith, had she not suddenly met with her bit of success. Now he felt hesitant It would look as though he were following that snobbish instinct of the world by giving to those who have merely because they have. He even suspected his own motives. He and Edith had gone about their daily intercourse with that pretense of everything being harmonious with them which all right-hearted married couples know how to affect. But in their own hearts they knew the truth they were living apart Edith, waiting wistfully for John to proffer peace and love, went briskly about her worKT eagerly ready to meet him more than half way. If he had only seized her suddenly when her hands were in the dough pan, or set a kiss upon her face as it rose flushed from an investigation 'of the oven! But John held awkwardly back, abashed at himself and afraid of the repulse he felt he deserved. Thus did the Ferrols commit the common sin of wasting golden hours and days of life through needless misunderstandings and foolish pride. '

CARL M'BRIDE IN FIRST-LINE ACTION

Mr. and Mrs." Harry McBrlde have received a letter from their son. Corporal McBrlde, who Is in active service with the American Expeditionary forces In France. He stated that he had been In the front line trenches for ten days, and had come through without a scratch, but had some pretty close calls. He says, "Then an order came transferring me to Co. D, Central records office, General headquarters, and I am now pounding a typewriter along with 350 English girls. I am located near one of the largest cities in France, and work from 9 p. m. until 7 a. m.; sleep until noon and have the afternoon and evening to see the sights. Some of the boyB are not satisfied here in the office but when you have been in the trenches you know how to appreciate It. "The worst thing is I do not hear from anyone. I guess they have forgotten Birdie. "My present address is: Carl MoBride, Co. D, Hdg. Battalion, General Headquarters, C. R. Office, A. P. O., 902, American Expeditionary Forces, France." .

BELIEVE HOLLOWELL IS SITU. ALIVE

A letter dated Sept. 7 which has just been received from Fred Hollowell a former Earlham student who has been serving in France since 1917 as an ambulance driver and who was reported killed Aug. 26V gives rise to the hope that the report of his death was false. The word which announced his death was not official, and the

letter just received is the second one

than

to come from him dated later

his supposed death. : Cablegrams which have been sent asking for Information on the matter have not yet been answered, so that nothing la confirmed but friends have been greatly encouraged In their hope.
