the unlver slty registrar a few moments later when hal had nerved himself to the point of entering i suppose there were no er it difficulties at wlllowvale that caused yan tp enter and then leave so soon hal hesitated the registrars eyes were on some papers before him a lie would be so simple he could just re mark casually oh no sir no trouble of any sort maccrea had told him that he would make no notation on the grades concerning his dismissal from willow vale thu man so far from willow voir how could he guess or find out before hal had spoken the door open ed quietly and a white haired man some what stooped entered the reglntrai jumped to his feet and nulled over a chulr ftcvt i mind thunkn duncan said tin whlu haired man i m jtitit on my way to my office and i stopped a moment htn low

so hot headed about it all he said to himself and in ipeodu amongst the laws we and came a voice from the building marked divinity eye for eye tooth for tooth hand for hand hal heard no more he was passing along the wide walks where the golden maple leaves were al ready fluttering their last and in his heart- was hate towards seward mac crea an eye for an eye he said in low tones ah oye for an eye if ever i have a chance to damage maccrea as he 1ms damaged me l the president strangely enough was waiting for him when he reached his j office you knew seward maccrea down there at wlllowvale be nslced hal abruptly why yeal answered hal the president nodded in a small college that is usually tlie way every one know everyone else more or less you had worked with him in astronomy possibly hal nodded yes sir he answered he wonderfjf this might be leading up to the quesudtrorwhy he had left wll towvale at this time of year i used to know seward pretty well said the president thoughtfully pretty well 3ood student he was tout i always had my well not doubts precisely and yet that u as good a word for it as any perhaps i hud my doubts as to his ability to mix with students you see when i started at this university business a proressor never mixed with students he was supposed to sit up neatly on a pedestal and dispense information thatjj not the way teaching goes nowadays i i have come to the end of my time oh president of this university i have always promised my wife that on my sixty fifth birthday we should start a world trip my birthday com en shortly maccrea is being

president of an institution like this one lsn t chtosen on thw whim or a lad who still has to earn hi first degree i wanted to test you out to see if maccrea was right in his judgment of you hal started suddenly the president reached into his uop drawer for a letter i cxprlled him i was sorry the moment i had don i it i honestly dldn t intend to do ii and i hoped nil day he would come back to me to talk it over when iil dldn t i uent to his room but he had already left he intended to do gradu ate work with you he may come to you and i think he will to onlsh his work for hu bachelors degree if it is humanly possible will you see to it that lie gets a fellowship he is uood at obtroriomy and should be putting ns much of his time on it as posfdble vut him nt a rough job well i went in see jilm get along as easily as he can until i get there and when i arrive iii take care of hal ward i think i must have forgotten the pranks we used to play when you were dean and i was student the president pause and read s little more silently well ward thut is all thnt will in tnrent you and about the fclowshl- here he scribbled a name on n slip of paper ive seen him about it and he os a
