=5* ' Qreen tea at its best "SUMS GREE1I TEA "BELOVED CASTAWAY By MARTHA BANNING THOMAS U Karen Chase is about to leave the little town of Two Rivers to travel to a far-off place where she can forgget the bitterness and unhappiness that a vengeful woman, Mrs. Masters, has brought to her and her dead mother and father. Mrs. Masters, who as a girl had loved Karen's father and been spurned by him, had In revenge concocted concocted a malicious scheme whereby she had brought him to financial ruin. Before Karen leaves, Mrs. Masters tells her that she is not her supposed father's daughter, but an illegitimate child. Karen, in a daze of humiliation, humiliation, leaves for Smoke Mountain, the remote spot she has picked in which to foryct. CHAPTER It When Karen at last arrived at Mickle Mickle Bay, and walked down the gangplank gangplank from the steamer to the wharf, she felt as if she had left one world to enter another. And still her long journey journey was not quite ddne. Waiting to take a smaller boat across the bay to Smoke Mountain, she inhaled a deep, salty breath. Ah, how the -smell of the sea could wash hurts away! Straight ahead lay Smoke Mountain, Mountain, massed high above blue water. stled at its base, was the village of same name--the spot she had Chosen for her home. (A mere speck on the map, it had been. She had read about it in a travel magazine--a paragraph or two, plus a single illustration.) illustration.) Smoke Mountain! Quite suddenly, she smiled, as two men came to haul h'-" r-cr-n-cp-o aboard the packet. An hour later, i-e packet nosed between between the busy fish wharves of the little village. The character of the place enfolded her in peace and serenity. serenity. Bitterness became trivial .... ' 'ob O'Farrel was the first person W welcome her...to Smoke Mountain. ' Vct're coming to board to our house, I believe," he said, in his low, pleasant voice. "The ticket agent you wrote to at Mickle Bay asking about places here to stay, asked Mom If 'd take you in. Mom was glad to" Vj gave her a shy smile--"if you like it." "I'm sure I shall," said Karen, lilting lilting this bashful young man. He picked up her bags, and they started up the steep path to the village village road above. Suddenly, her overnight overnight case, strained to the bursting point, snapped open. Ignominiously, all her most intimate garments spilled out, tumbling hither and thither in a foam of femininity. And, mingling with the odors of the wharves, the smell of violet toilet, water fought for supremacy. Karen stood still and laughed. ' How perfectly absurd!" Job looked sober and concerned. "She's fair broke," he announced, pm : to a jagged fragment of glass at liar feet. The fragment of glass stiil carried a label on it. "Violet," Job read aloud. "My, my," he sighed, sighed, "ain't that a handsome smell!" Then, solemnly, he helped her repack repack the little case. He handled everything everything with reverent gentleness. They reached the higher road. It was step and narrow. The mountain reared its sombre height on their right hand. A small gray-shingled house, tucked away behind a lilac bush, caught Karen's Karen's attention. "How attractive!" she breathed. "And see, there's a child looking out. A boy--nothing but a baby." Something Something in the child's attitude of quiet attention made her frown. "He has such an old face, and such big sad eyes, hasn't he?" "That's Sandy Trew's little feller; he ain't real well." "Does the doctor look after little Sandy?" inquired Karen. Job gave her a quick look. "Why no, miss--they ain't no doctor handy, less'n fifty miles." "But you have a trained nurse in the village?" "No--we just shift for ourselves mostly." Perhaps, in that moment, was born Karen's subsequent determination to become a nurse herself. They took the last rise in the hill, and turned up a little stony path towards towards a house beside another lilac bush. Peg O'Farrell, Job's mother, stood on the step to welcome them. "Come on, boy--make a muster and get them bags up there, so's Miss Leader Leader can sit down to her dinner. She must he near starved ! " Karen Leader (as she now called hercelf, having adopted her mother's maiden name) had sought out Smoke , Mountain as a sanctuary from tfie hurt and bitterness of her old life, and when she entered Peg O'Farrell's neat, cheerful house, she felt that she had found that sanctuary. Her room under the eaves was tiare hut adequate, adequate, and through the dormer window, window, she could look down over slanted slanted fields to the bluffs and wide blue water. . ***** The days slipped into weeks, the weeks into months. More and more, as she went among the families of Smoke Mountain, she grew to comprehend comprehend their needs. Karen's heart reached out to them all. Yet this was rot enough--she must try to help them. Thus, saying she was going away for a while, she left the village to take a special course in practical nursing at a city many miles distant from Mickle Bay. Job was too proud to inquire the reason for her going. He became a trifle reserved. "I was hoping you'd be happy with us," was all he said, "I am happy," she told him. "I won't be gone long." And she wasn't. Having sent a note to Peg O'Farrel, advising her of her return, she found Job waiting for her at Mickle Bay. "Just thought I'd take a cruise over here," he explained. "Had a load of fish to sell, anyway." This was his greeting, but Karen understood, and felt a rush of gladness gladness as she watched him swinging her baggage into his fishing dory. "How does she look to you?" he in quired, nodding towards *- Ile dark mass of Smoke Mountain ahead. "Just grand, Job! I cab hardly wait to get there !" And he seemed satisfied. Karen said nothing of her training, training, Test the ignorance Of the village people might overestimate her skill. She had a natural deftness in handling patients and, more and more, her charges came to depend on her. When the doctor came on one of his rare visits, Karen talked over cases with him. "I've had only the briefest training in practical nursing," she explained carefully. "But I'll try hard to follow follow your instructions. What shall I do for old Mrs. Sawyer's leg? It's very painful. And what about her husband? husband? He goes away for days at a time, and wanders on the mountain. I don't quite like the look in his eyes." "An old trouble." Dr. Blake tapped his forehead. "A bit balmy over the loss of a child long ago." "And little Sandy Trew. He's too thin ..." On each of his visits, the doctor advised advised her. "Why," he once barked, "don't you go in seriously for nurs ing--get away from this forsaken place? You'd be good." "Go professional--for money? Not à ,1 f j f 71 S ty mvm ' as Ba ■sfeTBIH my idea at all. I wish to stay here-- just to help." The doctor glared at her. "Running "Running away from something?" "Yes--running as far as I could get," answered the girl promptly. "In love?" "Good gracious, no!" "That Job O'Farrel,' the doctor twinkled at her, "is a likely lad. Seems kind of loitering around the edges, eh?" Karen turned a bright pink, and changed the subject.
