A magic wand must have been waved to have such a crystal The colorful pageants, the spectacular floats, the brilliant flares, the huge blocks of ice carved into all manner of objects. On either side of the throne, raised at the top of the long silver stairway, stood two majestic lions, made from snow. Hidden lights, in rainbow colors, turned the crystal world into rose, then lavender, then gold.

Last of all in the solemn procession came the Queen in the magnificence of regal robes, en ermine cloak with a train that spread for yards like a peacock's tail, a glistening scepter in her hand, a glittering tiara crowning her dark curls. There were sighs and whispers and then a mighty thunder of applause and acclaim. The carnival continued long into the night, until the last tiny star was enfolded in a cloud and put to bed, and the last song had died on the clear, crisp air and the Queen and her ladies in waiting found that their eyes were dream- lidded and their dancing slippers stilled. Nevertheless Sally Blair, her short reign ended, slipped out of bed before 6 o'clock that next morning, resumed the ordinary dcthing of mortal maid, and crept out to meet the dawn. Or, rather, to meet Dan Reynolds, who was waiting, true to his word, at- tee foot of hill, DIDN'T think you'd make it," he said.

He had not put any stars to bed. It was too important that he be in form for the last important events of the meet.

"Better begin with a few basic mouth, even though it was so stems and snow plows first," he stern. He was not smooth and suggested, proceeding to put her shining and fair like Corey. But there was a ruggedness, a strength about this boy that matched the mountains he set out to conquer. He said, "Shall we use the tow- pulley to get to the top? It will save time." The tow-pulley was a long loop of rope, that fastened about one's waist, saved hours of laborious climbing.

Sally shook her head stubbornly. "I've plenty of time," she said, even though he had none for her, except this grudgingly extracted bit, of which she would make the most, or die in the attempt. He helped her adjust her skis into the tde-plates, tightened the bindings with one firm pull. They herringboned up the hill, breaking the virgin snow that had fallen during the night. "Want vo rest?" Dan asked at the halfway mark.

She had matched his silence with hers. She would show him she could share the companionship and stillness of a new day that was like a sanctuary in its stark purity. CHE shook her head. They trudged on, side by side. It was glorious, the clean air washing against her face, filling her lungs, beckoning her on and on, up and up.

But not so glorious as the down-trail, the hushed moment of the Schuss! when the ground would drop away beneath through the easiest maneuvers, "I think I can try it now," Sally said. She had endeavored to give a good demonstration of windmill gyrations, holding her body with ram-like stiffness. It would never do to let this serious buy know she was laughing up her sleeve at him. QR was she? B2fore this first lesson was over, Sally was not so sure. He had been so patient, so painstakingly careful, so earnest and eager, when he finally accepted the idea that his pupil seemed in earnest, too.

Sally, after a warm word of praise when she swung a telemark that was almost too agile for such a beginner as she, had the grace to feel a trifle ashamed. Still, he had asked for it, she told herself fiercely, the lesson over, as he knelt before her to unsnap her skis. "You did pretty swell for a girl." His direct gray eyes looked up into hers. "You'd make a real skier. If you could take it seriously enough." "What makes you think I couldn't?" Sally asked.

She liked the way his hair rumpled in the breeze. No hat or masks 'or sun-goggles for Dan Reynolds. He was of the wind and sky, the clear, swift air of mountain tops.
