Milestone fe . ,fm - u.s...1l. THE CLOCK There it stood. I think it had been standing in that dull, gray hallway for nearly half a century, I don't know where it came from, but ever since I had come into the house it had been there. It certainly wasn't anything to look at, with its dark walnut case with the finish a little worn off. The face had big gold numbers and a little country scene in the middle, I had heard it said that the clock had quite a historical background. During the Civil War it had contained some important papers and documents that helped in the emancipation of the slaves. We had a tunnel in our basement that was used during that time: it is boarded up now, but I can remember the time that we played there. The sharp ring of the door bell woke me from my day-dreaming, and I realized with a start that it was the man to take the clock. It was wrong to take it. Mother knew that as well as any one, but she insisted that it was just old and getting in the way. Dad was the rather indifferent type and didn't express his feeling one way or the other. Personally, I think he was a little glad to see it go. I don't know why, though. I let the moving man in, and I suppose I gave him a rather disagreeable look, but I didn't really care. He picked up the clock and bodily hauled it away. After it was gone, there was a big yawning in the space where it used to be, and I felt rather dejected. I think even father was sorry it was gone. It was about two weeks later there came a knock on the door, and I went to see who it was. Even without asking the man what he wanted, and why he had come to our house, I could tell. Father had missed it and had called the moving man to bring it back. There it was, garbed in a wooden covering-the clock, EUGENIA BAUER.

Milestone Johnny reappeared and repeated his words about being brave, Marianne now had a new strength. 1 She asked for her mother and little boy and told the nurse to tell Dickie she had a wonderful Christmas present for him-a baby brother. i When Mrs. Hopkins entered Marianne's room the girl was asleep, with her baby by her side. Mrs. Hopkins stared in amazement-here before her very eyes was the Virgin and the Child. CARQL Locicwooo, '49 YV U1 1 e.
