PAGE 'SIX OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, AUGUST 3, 1922 * "North of Fifty-three " by BERTRAND "Oh, bother nothing," Mrs. Lauer declared, "Why, we'd be ashamed if we couldn't help a little, And far's the load goes, you ought to see the four heautiful horses your hus- band let Jake have. You don't know how much Jake appreciates it, nor what a fine man he thinks your hushand is, We needed horses so bad, and didn't have the money to buy. 8o Mr, Wagstaff didn't say a thing but got the team for us, and Jake's paying for them in clearing and plowing and making improve- ments on your land, Honest, they conld pull twice the load we'll have. There's a good wagon road most of the way now. Quite a lot of settlers, too, as much as fifty or sixty miles ont, And we've got the finest gar- den you ever saw, Vegetables enough to feed four families all winter, Oh, your old cities! I never want to live in one again, Never a day have the kiddies been sick, Sup- * pose it is a hit out of the world You're all the more pleased when somebody does happen along, Folks is so different in a new country ake this, There's plenty for everybody ---and everybody helps, like neigh- bors ought to," Lauer came up after a time, amd Hazel found herself unequivocally in their hands, With the matter of transportating herself and supplies thus solved, she set out to find Felix Courvoisenr--who would know how to get word to Bil. He might come back to the cabin in a month or 80; he might not come back at all unless he heard from her. She was smitten with a great fear that ke might give her up as lost to him, and plunge deeper into the wilderness. in some mood of recklessness. And she wanted him, longed for him, if only ¢o that she could make amends. * She easily found Courvoiseur, a tall spare Frenchman, past middle W. SINCLAIR J age. Yes, he could deliver a mes- sage to Bill Wagstaff; that is, he could send a man, Bill Wagstaff was in the Klappan range. "But if he should have left there?" Hazel suggsted uneasily, "BE weel leave weeth, W'itey Lewees word of w'ere 'e go," Cour- voiseur reassured her. An' my man, w'ich ees my bruzzer-law, w'ich I can mos' fully trus', 'e weel follow 'eem, So Beel'e ees arrange, 'R ees say mos' parteecular if madame ees come or weesh for forward mes- sage, geet heem to me queek, Oui. Long tam Bee] ees know me. I am for depend always." Courvoisenr kept a trader's stock of goods in a weather-beaten old log house which sprawled a hundred feet back from the street, Thirty years, he told her, he had kept that store! in Fort George. 8he guessed that Bill had selected him because he was a fixture, She sat down at his counter and wrote her message. Just a few terse lines, And when she had delivered it to Courvoiseur she went back to| the hotel, There was nothing now to do but wait. And with the mes- sage under way she found herself impatient to reach the cabin, to spend the waiting days where she had first found happiness. She could set her house in order against her man's coming. And if the days dragged, and the great, lone lan seemed to close in and press inexor- ably upon her, she would haye to be patient, very patient, Jake was held up, waiting for sup- plies, Fort George suffered a sugar famine. Two days later the belated freight arrived. He loaded his wag- on, a ton of goods for himself, a like weight of Hazel's supplies and belongings.

"Four days ve vill make it by der ranch," Jake chuckled, "Mit der mule und Gretchen, der cow, von veek it take me, mit half der loat.," Four altogether pleasant and sat- isfying days they were to Hazel. The worst of the fly pests were vanished for the season. A crisp touch of frost sharpened the night winds. In- dian summer hung its mellow haze over the land. The clean, pungent {air that sifted through the forests seemed doubly sweet after the viti- ated atmosphere of town, Fresh [from a gridiron of dusty streets and stone pavements, and but stepped, as one might say, from days of im- prisonment in the narrow confines of a railway coach, she drank the winey air in hungry gulps, and joyed in the soft yielding of the turf beneath her feet, the fern and peavine carpet of the forest floor, J % It was her pleasure at night to sleep as she and Bill had slept, with her face bared to the stars. 8he would draw her hed a little aside from the camp-fire and from the {low seclusion of a thicket lie watch- {ing the nimble flames at their merry dance, smiling lazily at the grotes- jque shadows cast hy Jake and his frau as they moved ahout the blaze.

If he should pay the fines and also tell where he got the liquor he cauld walk out a free man to-day, The first count against John in court vesterday was that he was intoxicated in contravention of the O.T.A, Ward pleaded guilty to this and was given the option of a fine of $60 and costs or two months, He then entered the box to give evidence as to the person who supplied him with the liquor, He swore that it was given to him by a | I'renchman in a local cafe but that he didn't know the name of the French: man, He drank the liquor there, Upon hearing this Col, Farewell, for the crown, instructed that a charge of drinking in a public place he laid against Ward, This was done and the charge read to him, He pleaded guilty on this count also, and was given his choice of a fine of $10 and costs or three months at Whithy, the said three months to commence on the expiration of any other term he might be serving it that time. For failing to disclose the name of the person from whom he secured the liquor, as called for hy the O.T.A., he was given another three months. Ward at the present time is out on suspended sentence following an ax- sault on his daughter in May last, but on the recommendation of Col.

Ward that 1 recommendation for leniency on the part of the crown in the future would not be recognized. Ward can pay $64 for two of the offences or serve while on the third offence he must sither serve three months in jail or ell from whom he got the liquor.

This sort of thing might happen anywhere in the British Com- monwealth of Nations, and the per- petrators get away with the insult. it is mot that Britishers are not sen- sitive as to the honor of 'their flag.
