Scflence Club Picnic BETTY: Professor Dodson, you certainly do select marvelous places for picnics for our Science Club. HOMES: I think so, too, Betty. I thought when we had the picnic at Fairfield Lake that we'd never find as beautiful place again. But I've changed my mind. These woods, th? deep gorge, these overhanging rocks, the rhododendron, and the falls make an ideal setting for a picnic. MARGARET: Yes, and instead of feeling scientific, one feels l>o?tic, or spiritual, or entranced, or something. Don't you, Jane ? JANE: I certainly do. Don't you wish Professor Klliiot were here? I ean just hear him quoting from Wordsworth's "Tinteru ' Abbey": .. , "The sounding cataiact Haunted me 'like a passion: the tall rook The mountain, and the deep and gloomy wood, Their colors and their forma, wore then to me An appetite, a tooling and n love, That had 110 need of a remoter charm, ? By thought supplied, nor any interest Unborrowed from the eye." JACK: Heigh! We are getting too poetic for mc. Let's get bnek *0 Scionc?. Professor Dodson, liow high did vou *-?y these fal.* are? DODSON: Jack, these particular falls, called the High Falls are approxjanilely 200 feet from tha brink yonder to rhe bottom of the rapids below. You know, of course, that there are three "Calla on the Tuckaseigee RAor here within a distance of less than a mile. You have seen, I believe, the Onion Skin Falls up by the highway. Between Onion Skin and High Falls is another cataract, quite inaccessible The combined f?U of the three cataracts, in cluding the rapids, is said to be 525 feet. MARGARET: No wonder this is such a gorge down here. HOMES: Professor Dodson, are these rocks granite? DODSON: Yes, I think the stone at this particular place is true granite, with intrusions perhaps of pegmatite. However, true gran ite is but rarely encountered in this section. Yon will find abun dance of feldspar, gneiss?g-n-3-i-s-s?, and shale in these moun tains, aud not infrequently marble, limestone and steatite, o* soajwtone. ,y JACK: How about minerals?What minerals are found in the Appalachian?? DODSON: Some minom Is are quite abundant. We passed a copper mine as we came up today, which was, before the fall in copper prices, producing tons of eoppcr ore of the finest quality. Near Webster, in this county, is the site of a rather noted nickel mine, formerly operated by Germans. Other minerals not infrequently fonnd in these mountains are m,ica/ kaolin, and iron. Traccs of gold have been found in some places. 0 CAROLYN: Say, these scrambled eggs mid bacon a<-e about ready. Aren't you folks hungry? Theme Sutnr- ?* SCENE III. The Chape!.

Angela lay awake, stari'ig al the shadows on the ceiling in the stuffy compartment .-he shared with Patty and Mrs. Mint -n. Pounding wheels brat on her 1 train, disturbingly different from the vibra tion of the ftoai. Patty tossed uneasily on her hard bed behind the green cur tain that shut her off from Angela. Her aunt slept peacefully, with all her anxious nights behind her in the past. "Patty," whispered Angela, "are you asleep, dear? I thought I heard you tossing." "No, I'm wide awake and choking with dust." "Isn't it frightful? It's right down to my lungs. Why aren't you sleep ing ? "Oh, I have a little demon at work. I can't close mv eyes. Annt Neil is sleeping like the ?kad. She always does. It's an easy conscience. Toss me a cigarettr. Angela, please." "Perhaps it we were to put out thi? beastly corridor light things would be better. It's just like a green eye wink ing in on ns." "Here's my scarf. Hang it over the transom." "That's a bright idea. I don't sup pose it will stick." Patty's strong young arms manoeu vred a temporary screen and she lay quiet, in darkness that was now com plete. "Angela," she said at last, "I'm going straight out to the Taj the min ute wc arrive at Agra, for the moon light is perfect tonight and we mightn't catch it again. Tomorrow night it might rain." None of them felt like luncheon when they returned to their hotel from teeing the taz and the Ganges at Agra, India. They found Macdttff at work on a new kind of cocktail. He was get ting on with hioatist. lie had crossed off the Blue Blazer in Jerusalem, the Sidecar at Shephcard's, the Jab berwock at the Mena House, the Kombay Spccial at Bombay, the Thunderclap at Agra, and was now L^ue to try the Union Jack at jSenares. decided not to go out on the Ganges, for he had been there before and knew the worst. In any event, he had a poor opinion of a race that did not drink. He was enjoying himself considerably and had no desire to look at the spindly legs of so many miserable men. " It pleafcrd hint to sit on a wide and shady veranda with a glass in front oi him, and a fakir trying to iscrew 4 penny out of hi* porkct. Macdufl chuckled to himselt at the inerc idea ol anyone getting a farthing tor nothing trom him. lie was really enjoying the voyage more than he would admit. The roisterers were settling down, and nobody bothered itiin now. Miss Mudge was a bort ?loo skittcrish. He had avoided iter ever since Monte Carlo. Mr?. | Wyi.ant scciued like a sensible per ?011, but ht* thought it dangerous to .jass the time of day to any woman >n a boat; she might turn out.to be mother Mrs. Langford. Ilia place in the bar was sacred tow. He had glared every intruder >ut of his corner seat, and it wat ust as much boycotted as if a pla- , ?tr<] were up: "Reserved for Mac lulf. The dog will bite." For ?ome one who never spoke o a soul, Macduff had extensive " cvi edge of his fellow passengers. Ic spotted nrimy things they did ?wt know about one another?that ? as one of the advantages of sitting ack and holding one's tongue. Life ?ould be simple for a great many r.>ple if only there were less talk. ? Macduff downed lm fourth and .j.-c in a mellow mood to eat his -mcheon. As chance would have it, here wasn't a vacant "chair in the dace, except across front Mrs. Wy lant Well, he could stand looking t her. He sat down and reached ?jt thr menu. "Good-morning, Mr. MardufT. Ia>e von been on the riverr" Kngela enquired, turning her dark :yes full on his face. Macduff had iever had any trouble in being rude, iiid had cut more cordial advances han this, but the four Union Jacks ,vere behind him, the sun was irifcht, and lie liked the way that Angela did her hair. He thought he vould unbend "No," he said. "I suppose youVe seen it before and lliTr* it doesn't matter. I took Pattv Arundel with me. and it made her tli. Hygiene, you know. They teach the American young that cleanliness i? far ahead of godli* nest." Macduff looked suspiciously at Angela. Was she, by any chance, making fun of him? But no, her face wa? kind and open. "It's a pity your husband couldn't make the entire trip." "Heavens 1" thought Angela, "the man'* a boor!" A shadow darkened ber face. "Yes, I'm very sorry," she aaid. "He couldn't get away for to long. Of course, when one is a writer it doesn't matter where one Is?work can go on. Are you writing, Mr. Macduff?" "No/* said Macduff, shortly "I MVCT combine my busmen with pleasure." Continued (ink j ? - -
