In commenting on the GreencastleGarfield game, the Terre Haute Post ■ays: Field goals by Tate and Black in Ihe closing seconds of the game entbled Greencastle to defeat Garfield Jn the Wiley gym last night, 24 to 22. The last half was a nip and tuck ^ffair with first one team and then )he other taking the lead. Both teams fought hard but the two field goals before the final whistle settled the issue in favor of the Green castle net cagers. | Garfield staged a whirlwind attack i ind led at the half, 9 to 5. Green- ; castle failed to show its expected form • in this half and prospects looked very I ■bright for a purple victory. Greencastle soon evened the score ■after a few minutes of play in the ■last half, and from then until the ■finish it was a see-saw affair. Black, Young and Masten were the ■outstnading players on the Green■castle five. It was the fourth straight defeat Tfor Garfield. I Thet loss, however, was unwarrantJed In that the purple put up as good P game as Greencastle. The northside team worked to perfect ion and desprves commendation for its vast improvement since the tilt with Wiley an New Year’s Day. It took every ounce of Greencastle’s fctrength to win the game and the visitors can consider themselves lucky that they were not defeated.

5 A TRAIN EPISODE By MOLLIE MATHER '(fcb 1928, Western Newspaper Union.) O'>1$ was determined that the girl across from him in the train -..ould not depart on her way without < u n effort, upon his part, to meet and ..now hi r. Ills sister Letty—and who, if not a sister, is able to judge u man?—said that Bob was just the best and most unselfish person one could imagine. Betty ti/ld her husband, despairingly, • that Bob hadn't an oun< e of romance in his honest being—wherein Letty was wrong. Site could not know of his secret dreams—dreams still left i iroiu fils first youth. And so now here, j in a tin saint* train, w as visualized at j last the object of his dreaming. Per- j it. i-s Miss Connie Carson hud brought t esc dreams to life, in the inadvert- ; e ■ of her smile. Taking her seat 1 '. 1 te she hud winsouiely smiled at ! i..v strange, big man regarding her. ' That the smile had been promptly tak- ! en hack left no remedy for its damaging impression. The supposedly tinromantic Bob sat blinking, thinking.. “Beg pardon,” said the young woman. “For the moment I mistook you for a friend of my brother's—something about your shoulders and your glasses, maybe—beg pardon.” The young woman opened a magazine and absorbedly read. Miles slipped by—she might he going to get off almost anywhere, and pass out of his life—strangely desolate thought. “May I,” asked Bob politely, “open the window for you? These cur windows are difficult.” The young woman locked up, saw Bob’s embarrassment, recognized with a skill born of fornmr encounters the eagerness of his gaze. “Couldn't you think of something original?” saucily asked Miss Connie Carson, opening the window. “No, tliank you; it’s all right.” She returned to her magazine. Feeling quite as foolish as he now looked, Bob returned to his opposite seat. So, she thought him ua ordinary flirt, lie grinned. As such she could not have squelched him more completely. One hates ridicule. The miles slipped by—she might bo getting off anywhere—he had to know her. Every moment her charm grew upon him; he was possessed of a new strange fancy that they understood each other; that she was aware of his admiration; knew it to be not of a light sort; was making it hard for

him.

lit! approached the opposite seat frankly. Ills dark eyes troubled. “1’leuse,” begged Bob, and then smiled at his unusual request. “Allow me to talk to you for a few moments. I know it would he something to remember the rest of my life. I know I'm talking like an idiot, but I can't seem to help it. I just cannot let you go out of my life like this—’’ The young woman calmly regarded him. “I haven't come into it yet,” she remarked. The train came- to a sudden stop. 1'assengers went out to the platforms to ascertain the cause of delay. It would be necessary to await the coming of a new engine; the conductor explained the one in use had become slightly disabled. The passengers sat In their seats as patiently as they might. Strangers heretofnrs found friendly discussion concerning the disabled engine and various personal affairs. But the one woman In the world refused to make acquaintance with her unknown admirer. “In an hour or so,” she told Bob coldly, “we shall be separated and unremembering. I do not like,” added Miss Connie Carson pnlmly, “a stranger who attempts to attract my notice—by any means,” she further added severely. Crestfallen, Bob took a deserted seat just before. He did not wish to remain where a lovely vision was ever more firmly Impressing Itself upon his consciousness, to his future unrest. He closed his eyes, drew down his hat brim; beneath the brim he still seemed to see blue glancing eyes. He knew she was there behind, from the rustling of the magazine pages as she turned them. The car gave a sudden Jolt—lurched violently on its way. j Bob felt an obscuring blow—not a ! painful one. Confusedly he groped at | the soft thing enveloping his bead;, found other smaller hands endeavoring te assist hi™. Then, oh; unbelter- j able I Bis dream woman stood before him, a heavy cloak in her arms, *Tt fell from the rack," she said. She appeared less dependent; mora like a frightened child. Nevertheless, Bob spoke coldly. “1 dlslKe," he said, "a stranger to ( attempt to attract my attention—by j any means.” They were laughing. “They tell me,” Miss Connie Carson voiced her i fear, “that we are using the disabled engine, temporarily repaired. Don't you think that dangerous?” Bob looked grave, but his dark eyes twinkled. And beneath the twinkle the young woman read earnestness. *T have a sister,” Bob said, “who considers me a true protector. Would you accept the assurance of my near presence during the rest of our trip?” Miss Carson folded away her magazine. It was Letty, awaiting anxiously the arrival of the delayed train, who suggested that they drive Miss Carson to her home in the city In their car. And no one was more happy than Letty when her brother’s long dream came true. Incidentally, Connie, as Bob’s wife, Is happy, too.

TRIUMPH FOR AMERICAN ( How Margaret Robinson Secured Amnesty for Bandit Band on Condition That it Joined Army. Is there no Homer in modern (!i ‘eee lo sing the exploit of the Aine an college girl who lias freed Crete of Its bandits? asks the New York Wot 1. When Miss Margaret Robinson of Grand Rapids arrived in rrcte as the representative of Near East relief her efforts to aid the refugees encountered the predatory opposition of the Creek outlaw Barbouqtfs and Ids hand, who for fifteen years had temiri . l tin* island. Sending an envoy to the robber chief, she began negotiations which rosultnl in the grant of amnesty to Barbounis and his followers by the government on condition of their serving In the Greek army on the Turkish frontier, and the harassed population has since had the satisfaction of seeing the bandits sail away to Join the "King’s Own" regiment at Dedea-

gatch.

Has a more romantic story come out of Crete since the time of the Minotaur? At least the feat of the American relief worker furnishes an interesting modern example of the kind of achievement which provided themes for the old Greek poets. Given, that it hud occurred in remote antiquityj it might by this time have been embellished and elaborated into a great popular myth possessing enough historical truth to give It substance and adding a new female portrait to the familiar gallery of Ariudnes, Antlgones and BUctraa,

In the Deep Waters By EDWARD LEVINE

(©. 1.1-3. Western New* -.laper Union ) “'Y'H LL never find anything that falls into the mill stream. It runs too fast and too far—clear down to the sea, ou a barren coast far away.” Uius Mrs. Semple, my landlady. I had rented the old mill for the summer, to finish up some work there. 1 wanted solitude, and there was no one nearer than the village, two miles away. Mrs. Semple came over every day to “do” for me. ns she phrased it. There was an air of uneannlness about thi* mill. Silence seemed to brood there, no bird ever sun-; there were always shadows about the place; there was the sense of an Impalpable presence. It had belonged to Farmer Styles until his death two years before. Since then the heirs had offered it for sale, hut nobody wanted it. Of course the days of the country mill were ended, hut still, there was good farming land attached. 1 wondered at it. Styles had been a stubborn, grim old man, the neighbors told me. His wife? Hadn’t a wife. Leastways, he’d had one once, hut she died—they thought she died. It was so long ago, before they settled there. Lt was Mrs. Semple who, little by little, let out the story and enabled me to piece it together. It appeared that very many years before, when the mill "as lu the zenith of Its prosperity, Fanner Styles hud brought u young wife home with him from the city. Cltyfied, she was, a gay little thing, at first, anyway, and folks wondered how she could have married the grim, middle-aged man, with his gloomy ways. He was not unkind to her— that was admitted. Only naturally she pined and moped, and became the shadow of her former self. She wanted life, gaiety, company, not the gloomy old mill and her dour husband. Then young lugless came on the scene. Farmhand he was. nothing more, but u quiet sort of chap, who used to burn the midnight oil, reading at night, studying to fit himself for something higher. He was some years younger than Mrs. Styles. She was like a mother to him. They were naturally attracted to each other—two young people. He would sit with her in the parlor at night, while Styles was poring over his accounts in the mill. Harm? Well, folks gossiped, hut that’s their way. Time went on, and the gossip grew more pronounced. Only Styles seemed to see nothing. His little wife grew brighter, more cheerful. She moped no longer. Styles grew more grim and dour. Perhaps he did see something It was given out that he was going to a distant city for some days. His wife was to follow him. Young Ingless? Why, it was reported that he was leaving. There was much search ing of hearts after to find who had spread these various stories, whether. In fact, they had been spread, or craftily hinted at by Styles. It was Ted Brooks who told all that there was to tell—but he was half-wit-ted and an incorrigible liar, so that carried no one anywhere. At least, it afforded no substance with which to go to the authorities. Young Brook* said he had been fishing In the millpond when he heard someone coming, and, forgetting that the farmer had gone away, he whipped Into the bushes Just In time to see the farmer’s wife and young Ingless strolling along the bank, their arms around each other’s waist. They stopped opposite the spot where young Brooks was hidden, and kissed. He hurried home, and by that time it was pitch dark, but not too dark for him to recognize the man who hrushed past him like a wraith at the foot of the lane. A tall man, with a look of hate on his face—Farmer Styles. That was all anyone had to go by. There was a thunderstorm that night, and a deluge of rain that sent the freshets coursing down Into the mill stream, and sent the mill stream In a turbulent race down to the distant sea. Nobody ssw Mrs. Styles or young Lngless for several days. At last the grocer, making his round, reported that there was no one on the farm. When Farmer Styles returned a week later, he gave out that his wife and young Ingless had run away together. He claimed aha had left a letter. Certainly they were never seen again. But I pictured that scene after Mrs. Semple had told me: the black night, the BtorTn, the lovers on the path beside the dam; the farmer, mad with suspicion and hot for vengeance, returning, finding them; the struggle In the dark, the scream drowned hy the thunder and the rushing water. . . . And the waters ran very fast and fur.

He Thought It Was. Miss Muff was one of those kindhearted spinsters who. having nothing else to do In life, make themselves rather objectionable in the process of carrying out their kind-heartedness. “Have you done your good deed today?” asked Miss Muff one day as she came upon a ven diminutive boy scout. “Yes, I did It before breakfast. I gave my brother a thrashing before breakfast, and 1 blacked his eye so he couldn't go to school.” “But I don’t call that a good deed," said Miss Muff. “What?” exclaimed the hoy scout. “Pldu't I tell you h« couldn't go to school 1" I

Hughes had fixed some criminal cases for the opening of court, but the parties connected with it, were late I in reaching the city and he passed it to hear foreclosure cases pending.
