The Colored Giants defeated Kiwanis 20 to 7 before a large crowd at the softball field last night and tied Done Star for first place in the Federal League. The Giants continued the hitting that marked their opening game last week, hy pounding Allen, newly acquired Kiwanis pitcher, for fourteen hits and twenty runs. The Kiwanians scored five of their seven runs in the sixth, when McLean hit a lionic tun with the liases loaded. In the final game the Merchants took undisputed position of first place in the National league, as they handed Sinclair its first defeat of the eason !• to 3. Messcrsmith pitched for the Merchants and held the Sinclair sluggers in cheek. Timely Merchant hits and Sinclair errors kept Meyers. Sinclair pitcher, in trouble most of the game.

David Langston wa.i
■was the natural and exie-rted fruit of his love for the land To plough « furrow, to sow th" seed. In paltier In hia harvest, made the acceptable «-yclf of life and to have a home of hts own was the crowning fulfillment Being young and shy and inarticulate, he did not carry th» dream further, to include in th" picture a wife and children of hi* own Tilling his fields, •earthing ♦ he Limberlost swamp for herbs from which Dr Carey would com pound medicine for the little coni munity, sharing with friends and neighbors good times and bad, made a patern he had not thought
of changing
But to David's neighbors In the Limberlost country, tne building of a house signified matrimonial p ans end pros peris In that rurai Indian countryside, removed from eity contacts, there were few thcni'ti for conversation or gossip. In thin year of nineteen hundred and ten no miraele of radio knil their lives In n world wide neighborhood For them the renter of interest lay In their mips the progress of the sea ■one. and birth and death romance
and marriage.
And so, all unsuspected by David from the first breaking of ground for hi.s little farmhouse, tongues started their busy wagging For
ehair and all, he kissed hT heartily "Naomi is wu best girl'.'' he declared heartily Stubby shook hie head in disap proval. "Pretty foxy, David' But we ll catrh you yet' But David only laughed naively unaware that, as a home builds-, he had ceased to be a free and independent farmer! When the party was over he put the drowsy Naomi into a wheelbarrow to lake her home, walking happily along with Ruth and Granny Moreland and his shaggy dog. Belshazrai "Look, Dave—” Ruth said mftly, breathlesly. "the hunter's moon'" Dave nodded absently, unconscious of the hungry heart that w a ked beside him. unaware of the ad ua tmh in the girl's uplifted eyes His dreams were sweet but they were formless, disembodied, and the en ohantment of the night took no csr tain shape for him Tell-Tale Twenty-One Meanwhile, in the Biddle home, the most ornate that Twin Forks boasted and the height of rural elegance, Mrs Biddle took Thelma te, task. "There were ,>tt r red ears tonight, and not a single young man tneJ to kiss you except that Lig" Brown.'' she complained, as they undressed before the bedroom stove "The neighbors are beginning to wonder why you don't get ihar* ried." Thelma shook her blonde head defiantly. "1 don't like farmers! I

tn the center of town and was hy wav of being the village autocrat as well ns the ruling voice in her own family, gave the matter thoughtful considet at ion on tieha f of her daughter. Thelma Rut there were some who held thai David s ■arret love was pretty Ruth .lame son, the orphan girl who. with her little sister. Naomi, lived with Granny Moreland, next door to David s farm. His "Beal Girl* The barn, of course, was finished first, just when the first frost had touched the rorn and the pump kins were n. ions of golden splendoi And David invited his friends to celebrate in a husking bee As they met in the gaily decorated barn little groups gathered in excited conference how could they make David reveal his secret? It was Stubbv Pratt who conceived the brilliant idea of sneaking a red ear of corn into the pile David was husking. When you stripped a red car, you had to kiss the girl you
loved!
And so, when David innocently husked the fateful ear. he felt his own ears reddening with embarrassMpent as voices avidly demanded “Kiss your best girl, Pave!" And others babbled knowingly: "Now we'll find out who you'rv building that house lor!" L'ncomfortably David glanced at th>' ring or fares about him Thelma Biddle rolled her eyes invitingly and patted her blonde hair. She didn't want a farmer husband, but her mother had admonished her to set her cap for David, if she didn't want to be an old maid like Miss Soph:onia! And Ruth Jameson, as David's eyes met hers with a trapped expression, flushed aad caught her breath. But already ms troubled glance had passed her by and now a smile of relief lighted his face Jumping to his feet ne ran to the imp. Naomi, busily purloining a doughgut from the table. Lifting her up,

"But T never let him have a moment t peace till 1 got him in the real estate business Now David Lang ston,” she went on pointedly, is the easy going kind, too Any elever girl ran mntiid him. If her heart e in i* You II lie twenty-one in three weeks." sh‘* combed her hair vigorously, "and you've got to find a hu. band! Thelma looked troubled "David is light nice-looking.’’ she mused "Now you're being clever' Her mother kissed her approvingly. “David Is the most likely young man in Twin Forks bin farm t* clear he's building a nice house If you manage right, you can be the bride he carries across the threshold!” "Tell you what we ll do.'' she went, on, drawing tv r nightgown over her head and slipping off her elothe.a beneath it. "well have a birthday party for you and you give him a iittlc encouragement. He ll propose.” 'It would be fun Thelma sighed, "to be earned across ths threshold ..." "You'll make a lovely bride." Mra Riddle said, in the tone of one who has settled everything to her complete satisfaction But in bed. with the last lamp extinguished and the house quiet, she lay awake for some hours, weaving careful plans to achieve her purpose. Cruel plans but. matchmaking mamas know no pity' She had not mi sed Ruths blueh in that tense moment, nor the breathless hope in the girls eager eyes. But she could handle that Granny Moreland was poor, and the support of the two orphaned girls was a drain on her meagre resourcee . . . She would. Mre. Biddle determined craftily, presenA herself in the light of a benefactor, offering Ruth a home with her and ten dollars a month besides they were in no position to refuse that offer! Then, once established In their home In a menial position, they could keep Ruth out of David's way On Ihe night of Thelma's birthday party, .she could be kept busy in the kitchen The rest would he easy . .
