!! Now is the time to
get your work done.
“Miss Vaughn, you will please re-
main a few moments after school,”
said the teacher one day. near 4 o’clock.
Twice she had been caught whispering
that day with the young girl who sat
behind her. Trove had looked down,
stroking his little mustache thought-
fully, and made no remark. The girl
had gone to work, then, her cheeks red
with embarrassment.
“I wish you’d do me a favor, Miss
Polly,” said the teacher when they
were alone.
She blushed deeply and sat looking
down as she fussed with her handker-
chief. She was a bit frightened by the
serious air of that big young man.
“It isn’t much,” he went on. “I’d
like you to help me teach a little. To-
morrow morning I shall make a map
on the blackboard, and while I am
doing it I’d like you to conduct the
school. When you have finished with
the primer class I’ll be ready to take
bold again.”
She had a puzzled look.
“I thought you were going to punish
me,” she answered, smiling.
“For what?” he inquired.
“Whispering,” said she.
“Oh, yes! But you have read Walter
Scott, and you know ladies are to he
honored, not punished. I shouldn’t
know how to do such a thing. When
yon’ve become a teacher you’ll see I’m
right about whispering. May I walk
home with you?”
Polly had then a very serious look.
She turned away, biting her lip, in a
brief struggle for self mastery.
“If you wire to,” she whispered.
They walked away in silence.
“Do you dance?” she inquired pres-
ently.
“No, save attendance on your pleas-
ure,” said he. “Will you teach me?”
“Is there anything I can teach you?”
She looked up at him playfully.
“Wisdom,” said he quickly, “and how
to preserve blueberries and make , bis-
cuit like those you gave us when I
came to tea. As to dancing—well, 1
fear ‘I am not shaped for sportive
tricks.’ ”
“If you’ll stay tills evening,” said
she, “we'll have some more of my
blueberries and biscuit, and then, if
you care to, we’ll try dancing.”
“You’ll give me a lesson?” he asked
eagerly.
“If you’d care to have me.”
“Agreed; but first let us have the
blueberries and biscuit,” said he hearti-
ly as they entered the door. “Hello,
Mrs. Vaughn. I came over to help you
eat supper. I have it all planned.
Paul is to set the table. I’m to peel the
potatoes and fry the pork, Polly is to
make the biscuit and gravy and put
the kettle on. You are to sit by and
look pleasant.”
“I insist on making the tea.” said
Mrs. Vaughn, with amusement.
“Shall we let her make the tea?” he
asked, looking thoughtfully at Polly.
“Perhaps we’d better,” said she,
laughing.
“All right. We’ll let her make the
tea. We don’t have to drink it”
“You,” said the widow, “are like Gov-
ernor Wriglit, who said to Mrs. Per-
kins, ‘Madam. I will praise your tea,
but bang me if I’ll drink it.’ ”
“I’m going to teach the primer class
In the morning,” said Polly as she
filled the teakettle. )
“Look out, young man,” said Mrs.
Vaughn, turning to the teacher. “In a
short time she’ll be thinking she can
teach you.”
“I get my first lessou tonight,” said
the young man. “She’s to teach me
dancing.”
“And you’ve no fear for your soul?”
“I’ve more fear for my body,” said
he. glancing down upon his long figure.
“I’ve never lifted my feet save for the
purpose of transportation. I’d like to
learn to dance because Deacon Tower
thinks It wicked, and I’ve learned that
happineas and sin mean the same tiling
in his vocabulary.”
“I fear you’re a downward and back-
sliding youth,” said the widow.
“You know what Ezra Tower said of
Ebenezer Fisher, that he was ‘one o’
them mush beads that didn’t believe in
hell?' Are you one o’ that kind?”
Proclaimers of liberal thought were at
work there In the north.
“Since I met Deacon Tower I’m
sure It’s useful and necessary. He's
got to have some place for his ene-
mies. If It were not for hell the dea-
con would be miserable here -aid, may-
be, happy hereafter/’
“It’s a great hope and comfort to
him,” said the widow, smiling.
“Well, God save us all!” said Trove,
who had now a liking for both the
phrase and philosophy of Darrel. They
had taken chairs at the table.
“Tom,” said he, “we’ll pause a mo
ment, while you give us the fourth rule
of syntax.”
“Correct,” said he heartily, as the
last word was spoken. “Now let us b<
happy.”
“Paul,” said the teacher, as he finish-
ed eating, “what is the greatest of al!
laws?”
“Thou sliait not lie,” said the boy
promptly.
“Correct,” said Trove; “and in the
full knowledge of the law I declare
that no better blueberries and biscuit
ever passed my lips.”
Supper over,’Polly disappeared, and
yonne Mr Trove helped with the dish-
es. Soon Poliy came back, glowing in
her best gown and slippers.
“Why, of all things! What a foolish
child'” said her mother. For answer
Polly waltzed up and down the room,
singing gayly.
She stopped before the glass and be-
gan to fuss with her ribbons. The
teacher went to her side.
“May I have the honor, Miss
Vaughn?” said he, bowing politely. “Is
that the way to do?”
“You might say, ‘Will you be my
pardner?’ ” said she, mimicking the
broad dialect of the region.
“I’ll sacrifice my diguity, but not my
language,” said he. “Let us dance and
be merry, for tomorrow' we teach.”
“If you’ll watch my feet you’ll see
how I do it,” said she, and lifting her
skirt above her dainty ankles she glided
across the floor on tiptoe as lightly as
a fawn at play. But Sidney Trove was
not a graceful creature. The muscles
on his lithe form, developed in the
school of work or in feats of strength,
at which he had met no equal, were un-
trained in all graceful trickery. He
loved dancing and music and every-
thing that increased the beauty and
delight of life, but they filled him with
a deep regret of his ignorauce.
CHAPTER XVII.
AB^HERE was much doing that
winter in the Linley district.
They were a mouth getting
ready for the school “exhibi-
tion.” Every home in the valley afod
up Cedar hill rang with loud declama-
tions. The impassioned utterances of
James Otis, Daniel Webster and Pat-
rick Henry were beard in bouse and
field and stable. Every evening wom-
en were busy making costumes for a
play, while the young rehearsed their
parts. Polly Vaughn, editor of a paper
to be read that evening, searched the
countryside for literary talent. She
found a young married woman who
had spent a year la the State Normal
school and who put her learning at the
service of Polly in a composition treat-
ing the subject of intemperance. Miss
Betsey Leech sent in what she called
“a piece” entitled “Home.” Polly her-
self wrote an editorial on “Our Teach-
er,” and there was hemming and haw-
ing when she read if, declaring they
all had learned much, even to love
him. Her mother helped her with the
alphabetical rhymes, each a couplet of
seutimental history, as, for example:
A is for Alson, a Jolly young man:
He'll marry Mi3s Betsey, they say, if he
can.
They trimmed the little sehoolhouse
with evergreen and erected a small
stage where the teacher's desk had
been. Sheets were buug for curtains
on a ten foot rod.
A while after dark one could hear a
sound of sleighbells in the distance.
Away on drifted pike and crossroad
the bells began to fling their musicj It
seemed to come in rippling streams of
sound through the still air, each with
Its own voice. In half an hour count-
less echoes tilled the space between
them and all were as one chorus, where-
in, as It came near, one could distin-
guish song and laughter.
Young people from afar came in cut-
ters and by the sleigh load; those who
lived near, afoot with lanterns. They
wore a merry company, crowding the
sehoolhouse, laughing and whispering
as they waited for the first exhibit.
Trove called them to order and made
a few remarks.
"Remember.” said he, “this Is not
our exhibition. It is only a sort of
preparation for one wo have planned.
In about twenty years the Linley school
is to give an exhibition worth seeing.
It will be. I believe, an exhibition of
happiness, ability and success on the
great stage of the world. Then 1 hope
to have on the programme speeches In
congress, in the pulpit and at the bar.
You shall see in that play, if I mistake
not. homes full of love and honor, men
and women of fair fame. It may be
you shall see, then, some whose names
are known and honored of all men.”
Each performer quaked with fear,
and both sympathy and approval were
in the applause. Miss Polly Vaughn
•was a rare picture of rustic beauty,
her cheeks as red as her ribbons, her
voice low and sweet. Trove came out
in the audience for a look at her as
she read. Ringing salvos of laughter
greeted the play and stirred the sleigh-
bells ou the startled horses beyoud the
door. The programme over, somebody
called for Squire Town, a local petti-
fogger, who flung his soul and body in-
to every cause. He often sored his
knuckles on the court table and racked
his frame with the violence of his rhet-
oric. He had a stock of impassioned
remarks ready for all occasions.
He rose, walked to the center of the
stage, looked sternly' at the people and
addressed them as “fellow citizens.”
He belabored the small table; he rose
on tiptoe and fell upon his heels; often
he seemed to fling his words with a
rapid jerk of his right arm as one
hurls a pebble. It was all in praise of
his “young friend,” the teacher, and
the high talent of Linley school.
The exhibition ended with this rare
exhibit of eloquence. Trove announced
the organization of a singing school for
Monday evening of the next week, and
then suppressed emotion burst into
noise. The Linley sehoolhouse had be-
come as a fount of merry sound in the
still night; then the loud chorus of the
bells, diminishing as they went away
and breaking into streams of music
and dying faint in the far woodland.
One Nelson Cartright—a jack of all
trades they called him—was the singing
master. He was noted far and wide
for song and penmanship. Every year
his intricate flourishes in black and
white were on exhibition at the county
fair.
“Waal, sir,” men used to say thought-
fully, “ye wouldn’t think he knew
beans. Why, he’s got a fist bigger’n a
ham. But I tell ye, let him take a pen,
sir, and he’ll draw a deer so nat’ral, sir,
ye’d swear he could jump over a six
rail fence. Why, it is wonderful!”-
Every winter he taught the arts of
song and penmanship in the four dis-
tricts from Jericho to Cedar hill. He
sang a roaring bass and beat the time
with dignity and precision. For weeks
he drilled the class on a bit of lyric
melody, of which a passage is here
given.
“One, two, three, ready, sing,” he
would say, his ruler cutting the air,
and all began:
Listen to the bird and the maid and the
humblebee,
Tra, la la la la, tra, la la la la;
Joyfully we'll sing the gladsome melody,
Tra, la la la la.
The singing school added little to the
knowledge or the cheerfulness of that
neighborhood. It came to an end the
last day of tbe winter term. As usual.
Trove went home with Polly. It was a
cold night, and as the crowd left them
at the comers he put his arm around
her.
“School is over,” said she, with a
sigh, “and I’m sorry."
“For me?” he inquired.
"For myself,” she answered, looking
down at the snowy path.
There came a little silence crowded
with happy thoughts.
“At first I thought you very dread-
ful,” she went on, looking up at him
with ft smile. He could see her sweet
face in tbe moonlight and was tempted
to kiss it.
“Why?” ,
“You were so terrible,” Bhe answered.
“Poor Joe Beach! It seemed as if he
would go through the will.”
“Well, something had to happen to
him,” said the teacher.
“He likes you now, and every one
likes you here. I wish we could have
you always for a teacher.”
“I’d be willing to be your teacher al-
ways If I could only teach you what
you have taught me.”
“Oh, dancing,” said she merrily.
“That is nothing. I’ll give you all the
lessons you like.”
“No, I shall not let you teach me
that again,” said he.
“Why?”
“Because your pretty feet trample
on me.”
Then came another silence.
“Don’t you enjoy it?” she asked,
looking off at the stars.
“Too much,” said he. “First, I must
teach you something, if I can.”
He was ready for a query If it came,
but she put him off.
“I intend to be a grand lady,” said
she, “and if you do not learn you’ll
never be able to dance with me.”
“There’ll be others to dance with
you,” said he. “I have so much else to
do.”
“Oh, you’re always thinking about
algebra and arithmetic and those
dreadful things,” said she.
“No. I’m thinking now of something
very different.”
“Grammar, I suppose,” said she, look-
ing down.
“Do you remember the conjuga-
tions?”
“Try me,” said she.
“Give me the first person singular,
'passive voice, present tense, of the
verb to Jove.”
“I am loved,” was her answer as
she looked away.
“And don’t you know I love you?”
said he quickly.
“That Is the active voice,” said she,
turning, with a smile.
“Polly,” said he, “I love you as I
could love no other in tbe world.”
He drew her close, and she looked
up at biin very soberly.
“You love me?” she said in a half
whisper.
“With all my heart,” he answered.
“I hope you will love me some time.”
Their lips came together.
“I do not ask you now to say that
you love me,” said the young man.
“You are young and do not know your
own heart.”
She rose on tiptoe and loudly touched
his cheek with her fingers.
“But I do love you,” she whispered.
“I thank God you have told me, but
I shall ask you for uo promise. A year
from now, then, dear, I shall ask you
to promise that you will be my wife
some time.”
“Oh, let me promise now,” she whis-
pered.
