PAGE TWO Occasional CHAPTER $0 AVIS WAS ONE of the first vis itors at the museum when the ex- WWt opened the follow mg week. Her e&gsr. anxioun inspection of the vast gallery fillet! with sculptured pieces, saitfht have indicated that she was one of the most ambitious of the en trants. Her eyes scanned one side of the room hurriedly, darted to the other end. Even in that brief in terval of suspense, her heart sank Maatlty with the dread of disappoint ment. before her ey« s found that ob- Jmx for which tiny w're searching impatient I \ Yea there it was.

There would l>v another week •f suspense before the filial award of the scholarship prize. She must help Peter to endure it. somehow.

He grinned boyishly. “Yo* are prejudiced, madam. You would make a fine judge, now. wouldn't you? Come back with me, and we’ll see what else there is to see.'* As if she would refuse! She cared nothing about comparing the taients jof his contemporaries, but Just to ! walk beside Peter anywhere, to share 'anything with him. was sheer delight ! and an adventure. Siw led him to hia own work and | lie read with a strange rush of ex ultation the prosaic words of Infor i mation on the classification card. Os tensibly, it was not important; but \ to Peter it represented a goal tow ard which he had been striving for four long, arduous years. He had not | intended that it would be just like I this, hut at least, his work hail met j with the approval of the judges we*l 'enough to be tn the display. It was a small personal triumph which por | tended muc h more than appeared nil the surface. He had not worked in vain. For a moment he forgot that he was not alone, so far dM Ire with draw into hia own secret thoughts. Avis, the room, and its other occu pants. the scores of plaster figures all about him. receded into space; and he waa alone with his little mo ment of personal triumph. Camilla was the first to intrude into that sanctuary of hl3 thoughts, and it was almoet as if he would speak with her that he turned toward Avis. Thus abruptly returned to the time, place and reality, his face i louded for an instant, like the sun is dimmed by the sudden passing of a small white cloud. Ills comment was changed to, “Well, it's there!" with a long sigh of near-satisfaction. “Now let's see what argues with it." His critical' eyes roved over the room. "Shall we try to pick the winner?" They roamed about the room, com menting. admiring, criticizing. Avis favored only the symbolic figures such an Peter had prepared to enter Hut Peter admired an excellent bust of the city's leading citizen, Andrew Havelock. “It's absolutely marvelous.” lie de clared. ‘T've not only seen pictures of him. bat I've seen Havelock him self, talked with him. It is the tru est likeness of a human being that I've ever seen in plaster.” He turned around. “That sea gull with spread wings is a beauty, tco; every line is rhythm and motion, but I doubt if it has a chance against this bust. 1 don’t think there is a nude figure here that can compare with either of them.” “Then what about ‘Land of Hope''V** she reminded him. “oh—that! It's completely out of lhe running. I am going back to work, in earnest. At least, thia much -sightseers could reach the top of Mount Mitchell has been over a toll road at a cost of $1 per person -and then a stiff climb on foot of almost a mile. At its meeting here last week, the highway commission autnorized a sur vey for a new highway that will extend to within 100 yards of the tower on the summit. This new survey will start at Buswick, on route 104, that connects with route 69 at Micaviile and with route 10 a ew miles west of Ma rion. Much of the cost of building this road will be paid for from funds allotted to the U. S. Forest Service, since most of Mount Mitchell is with in the Pisgah National Forest. Be cause of the dense growth on Mit chell. the new survey will probably not be started until this fall, when the leaves are off the trees. Chair man Jeffross does n ot believe it would be possible to start construction on thi road until next spring or summer. But he is confident that the road will be built.

By the way, an you in uny hurry for your stuff?*' “Not if you havs something mere important to do. I can wait." “Not at all. I Just want to know where to begin. I'm at your aorvlo* if you say so." "I do say so!" she declared. “How about coming to tea at the house to morrow and consulting with mother about the gulden piece first. You can get them modeled and while do ing the stone work you can fill In on my things at the studio.” “Fine!” he agreed. “You’re a great planner, aren’t you?" "Plans are only great If they work out to the proper advantage.” “And whut is that advantage?** “Your success. It all depends on I you," she replied, with more signifi cance than he knew. "That suits me." They were standing outside now, beside her smart coup*, parked at the curb. “I’ll drop y*u at the stn dio,” she suggested. "Thanks a lot. But I'd rather walk, to help work off soone of this newly acquired enthusiasm. Too much at one time is bad far the mental bal ance. l>kl you ever feel giddy with inspiration? Well, that is my pres ent condition,” he grinned “Besides, 1 want to drog> In somewhere right away and ’pJmne Camilla the good news. She will be anxious to bear. I promised to let her know as soon as possible." Avis set her teeth hard over hie loyalty to Camilla. It had not wa vered since that first wotnent on the night pf the tragedy. Nor had she dared mention to him the incident, even to learn w hat his reactions had beer, or what they had said to each other. There are some forbidden places into whkli even the most au dacious and unscrupulous may not enter. She would Just have to be pa tient and await the outcome. Her campaign was now prolonged and confronted with added difficulties, i'lut she was a good warrior who never admitted defeat. “Well, so long." she waved gayly, and darted away with a roar of the powerful motor. Camilla was jubilant over Peter’s announcement. “I knew It would get In." she told him. "Congratula tions. darling. 1 have a little special dinner all prepared to celebrate to night. Be there at six. will you?” “Okay, sweetheart. But you took a pretty long chance getting that cele bration ready before the victory, didn't you?” "I disagree. It was a sure thing. But even so, a celebration was in order. It is quite an event to havs you for a dinner guest, even." He laughed. "You won t think it’s nn event when you have to face me across the dinner table every day for the rest of your life," he warned. "It won't be. It will be—paradise." she declared. {TO BE COXTIKUED* Mitchell and who otherwise could have visited it have been prevented from doing so for years because of the excessive tolls charged over the private road, now the only road up the mountain,” says Gol. J. W. Har relson, director of the Department of Conserva%>n and Development. “A state road should have been built up this mountain years 'ago especially since the state owns 1.20 G acres on the summit as a state park. The re ceipts from the gasoline tax from those who would have visited the top of the mountain would have paid for the road and will pay for the one now contemplated.” CARD OF THANKS. We take this means of expressing our heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the many friends and neighbors for their many expressions of kindness and sympathy shown us during our recent beverement, the loss of our son and brother, C. D. Poindexter. We thank those for the many and beauti ful floral designs. Mr. and Mrs. F. D. Poindexter. Mrs. W. L.
