20 NORMAL OFFERING K Efhrnngh the 1Hirket Ellvnre NDIE MACGREGOR did not mean to be a thief. If you had called him such, he would have resented it bit- XW' terly, and with all the vehemence of twelve years he would have tried to justify himself. Times were hard, ' and the hungry mouths that clamored about Andie's ' a uncle for food were as those about the proverbial woman who lived in a shoe. Work was scarce in the little town, and hungry boys must eat. At an early age Andie, an orphan, had learned to shift for himself 3 and little by little the habit of taking what he needed or wanted had become part of his moral code. One sultry summer afternoon, when all of Crawford had sought shelter from the merciless sun, Andie shambled aimlessly up Nielson Hill. The locusts hummed in the trees by the roadside, underneath his feet the scorching sand lay hotg and the lazy crow of a fowl in a nearby field smote the heavy air. As he shufied on, the tall picket fence of the Nielson estate came in view. Above it towered the hollyhocks, the larkspur, and the scarlet acacias, around which the bees hovered in greedy delight. At the familiar sight he quickened his steps. In a twinkling he found a loosened picket and crawled through, and with gleeful abandon he rolled down the mossy slope to the duck pond. He dabbled his burning feet in the cool water and let the moist leaves of the overhanging willow fan his brow. Heat and discomfort were forgotten, but his joy was incomplete. Close by the duck pond were the Nielson kennels. Sykes, the keeper, had put four young Irish terriers in an open pen, near the hedge that encircled the pond. On the day when Andie had Hrst discovered the duck pond he had made friends with one of these puppies, and every day since then the dog watched for his coming. It was an easy matter for Andie to crawl up under the hedge and lift the animal out and as long as he was back by feeding time it mattered little to old Sykes. In the young lad's heart the little black and tan
