Evening Assembly of a new school in 58 years. Chips disobeys, but finds himself locked out with a new boy, son of the Duke of Dor- set. When Assembly is out the older . boys gather affectionately about him. A new master, Jack- son, escorts Chips back to his lodg- ing where, seated before. the hearth, Chips, now 83, sees him- self as a new master cbming to Brookfield 58 years earlier. CHAPTER 11 New Master At Brookfield The. Brookfield Special waited at the Victoria Station, London, for its load of boys returning, or going for the first time, to that old institution of learning, News- boys were shouting headlines from the late papers: "Special edition-- French defeated at Sedan! Speci- al--Emperor surrenders! Empress in flight! Speciall" Amid bustling porters, boys saying goodbye to relatives, stum- - bling over their bags, a harassed young schoolmaster, Bingham of Rrookfield, -was sorting the pupils into their seats in the train when _ a young, diffident man approached him. "Are you Mr. asked. "Yes." "I'm Chipping, the new master. Can [ be »f any assistance?" "Not now--just finishing. tin! Where's Martin!" Chipping yelled for Martin and . that was all that he did to help Bingham. He was ill at easé, un- certain of himself--going to his first school as a master--a famous school where he hoped to make a name for himself. . . Among the new boys was one young fellow who, finding himself alone among a lot of strangé boys, leaving home for the first time, sat looking out of the window trying hard to keep from crying. Chipping knew: Just how he felt-- Bingham?" he Mar- © for he was feeling much the same himself. He lowered his newspa- "Cheer up," he said with a faint smile. That diffident encouragement was too much for the boy, and af- ter a final struggle he burst into a flood of tears. Chips, appalled at the result "of his attempt to cheer the youngster, continued: "I'm new, too. It's not easy to begin with." ~ I Means Everything To Him The boy flung himself into the corner of the schtrand gave vent to a new burst of tearful grief. Chipping made an uncertain ges- ture towards the boy, and because * conscious of a sudden silence among the other boys, looked fur-- tively about. "What dj dhe do, Colley? Slap him?" asked a youthful voice. * ° "Kicked him, most likely," was the reply. The new master hind his newspaper. Arrived at Brookfield, Bingham accompanied Chipping to his ie ters.

The door was shut and. in- side dead silence reigned. Chip- ping opened the door and entered. The room was large and bare, with ta" windows. It was lighted by two- chandeliers of iron rings with a circle of candles. As_he stepped across the thres- hold," Chipping's mortar-board was. whirled from his head by a thread across the doorway and flung to the floor. Amid stifled giggles came cries of: "Your hat, sir!" "You've dropped your hat!" "Oh, let me, sir!" "No, no, I'll pick it up--please, sir." The hat, instead of being -pick- ed up and restored, was kicked out of the reach of cach boy stooping to get it, raising the dust - on the wooden floor. "That will do, thank you," pro- tested Chipping. "Kindly sit down, . Will you get back to your places, please!" He made grabs for the mortar-board, but always it was-snatched from his out- stretched hand, while, in the name of kindly helpfulness, the youthful ruffians shouted: "Not at all sir." "We're glad to help." "Morgan, give it to me!' "Here it is!" "Do not tread on it, you silly fool!" "Do you hear what I say?" de- manded Chipping, his voice get- ting shriller. "Go back to your seats! Sit down! Give it to me!" "I have it, sir!" shouted young Colley, holding it up. "It's a bit battered, sir!" He banged it vio- lently across his knee, while tle boys, speaking together, interrupt- ing each other, cried: "You-must be more careful, sir!" "Do you lose your hat very often, sir?" "That's a silly ques- tion!" "Isn't ita silly question, sir?" "Awfully dusty," said Colley, still banging the mortar-board "Ill fix. it, sir. Won't take a sec- ond, sir!" Colley ran to the blackboard, snatched up the chalk-permeated duster'and rubbed the mortar- board vigorously, covering it with white streaks. The new master snatched the hat. "What's your name?" - "Colley,ssir." "Go back to your place, Colley. Go back, all of youl" "Yes, sir," virtuously chorused the Boys and took their seats qui- etly. "You will employ this time.un- til six o'clock," said Chipping, "in writing an essay on the beok you were given to read during the ho- lidays. - I understand this was Kir gsley's 'Westward Ho!

"Silence! Silence! I'll have no more of it!" cried Chipping. "No more silence, sir?" asked Colley. amid general laughter; ~ In a moment another hand was raised. "Who was Queen Eliza.

"Who was Cadiz? Ca- diz is a town in Spain." There was another outburst of comments from the boys. - "Of course, you ass!) "Isn't he an ass, sir?" "Silly, fat ass!" "Don't lis- ten to him, sir!" "Ha!

Meats with their high protein contents and muscle-building pro- perties should form a place of honor on most menus. It is true in disease, meatless meals are oft: en prescribed, but in health, in a general mixed diet meat does hold an important place. Families tire o fthe same old kind even if they like it. Therefore, when mother presents an attractive meat dish as one of her repertoire she is read- ily voted a good cook.
