"And nothing at all in the gravel, of course," mourned Alex. "Well Party's over, I'm afraid, Miss Hall. I'll see you to the dormitory. proiessor, aon accompany US." Berry bade the head of her department as hearty a good night as she could after seeing his twitching mouth and remembering that only a moment ago oerry ana not "Miss Hall from Alex'; i lips.

There was a faint scent from the apple trees here in the square. When Alex paused she, too, halted, hesitated and ceased to speak. "You dear, funny little thing!" he said softly. It was so unlike anything Berry had expected that she retreated, but he slipped his hands around her shoulders in a most possessive way. In one motion he drew her close to him, titled up her face and kissed her hungrily and repeatedly.

"The key." he whispered, making no attempt to free her. 'is Of course it's been reported. I've had it all term. He's been using the Office key but you know how he is. He's lost it a dozen times.

Not at impudent Alex, oh, not at all at handsome Alex, at herself because her heart was pounding in such thrilling pleasure, because her hands had involuntarily placed themselves at her lips as though to hold the last kiss there.

"We've no key I've ruined my shoes in vain." Alex said nothing. He fumbled in his pocket, slipped a key into the lock of the great circular door and pushed gently.

Berry hesitated, half recoiled, but followed him inside. She knew of only four keys. There was no light whatever here. Even Alex moved forward inches at a time, pausing now and then to listen, though he could have heard nothing but Berry's high heels behind him. Alex struck a door with a resounding thud.

Berry gave a muffled squeak as her heel skidded on the tile and she pitched forward to clutch at him. There was more than enough warning for an intruder, yet she still whispered as Alex vainly tried the lights of the first room. "They're all off. You'll have to use the master switch.

Yet the child was destined to rise to lame and to help bring a new wonder to far from being wealthy, little Robert Fulton spent his boyhood in Lancaster County. After learning something about reading and writing from his mother he wa.s put under the care of a Quaker schoolmaster and went on with his studies for a year or two.

In those days it was costly for a child to be educated. Often the parents could not afford to spend money on teachers and books, and Robert was one of the boys who failed to enjoy much "schooling." He was gifted, however with an active mind and was able to learn many things outside school. Often he went to a gunsmith's shop in Lancaster to watch the men at work. There he saw muskets and pistols being made and repaired. One worker in the shop was a youth named Christopher Gumpt.

The two became friends and often went fishing together on the small stream known as the Cones toga, They used a flat-bottomed boat moved by poles which were put in the water until they touched the bottom and then were pushed. We are told that Robert, at the age of 13 or 14. put together a de vice to make the boat move more easily. Tills was a pair of paddle-wheels turned bv a hand-crank.
