iGittrary C!raug�t ht a i!ltntrunir About six years ago something happened in Claremont which very few people C\'er heard about. [ had gone quail hunting south of the Santa Pe tracks. a region which was tlwn all covered with scrub ouk and chaparral. with the exception of the Otis ranch and thereabouts. A� many kno·w. in the northeast corner of the Oak Park Cemetery, which was then hanllly started, there is n cement 1·eservoir about twenty l'eet in diameter :md six feet below the grnund. From the top of the ground it is arched o,·er with a circu­ lar cement dome with a small manhole about two l'�et in diameter at the top. From this to the bottom is a fall of ten foet or a trifle more and also, underneath it, a pipe projects from the cement bottoua. two or three feet while the inlet and ouUet pipes enter from the sides.

Today there is an irnu ladder but the lack of one then nearly caused 1Hy death.

As I said. l was hunting quail and wandered into the cemetery� which was rarely ,·isitcd. to sec what _[ could tlush. The old reser­ voir canght my eye and I clnmhered np to the top to look in. Pec1·­ i.ng into the clnrk interiol' 1 could see nothing till T had leaned way oyer, and I was just drnwing back when my broadbrimmed hat struck the opposite edge and foll in. I did not think much of it and looked :,round to see how to climb down. An old piece of rope and a board ucar by gave me an ide;i; so l fastened the rope to the board and i-;et the boc11·d acros." the opening. Jt looked stout enough and .I squeezed into the narrow hole and gral,bed 1 he rope beneath it when-crash­ the board splintered off and f fell. my foot catching the top of the pipe ill 1'11ch a way that I !-i1"l'uck the cemrnt floor hea<l foremost. \\'hen my seuses returned the sun was shining directly i11to the opening and I knew L must h1ne been lying there about. four hours.

My head seemetl al.lout to split and was wet and sticky with blood. ] :sat up and wondered dizzily how I was to get ont. 'l'he heat was. :::.titling and l could not set•rn to think clearly. A glance told me­ I could not jump tip mul catch the opening. nnd partly from despen1tion. with no d1dl11i1e object in view, 1. made a rope out of strips ol' my clothing and tied a shoe to one end of it. Although there was ahsoluft•ly nothing for it to catch. on the smooth dome, I threw it ont again and again. which was. an easy mcttter, hoping f Jwd overlooked something-. Bnt although it held a slight pull. a l1cavy tug tumblf'd it into my hands again. I lost my nrrve for a while and begirn to screllm and shont nt thC> top of my ,·oiee. though prob,ibly n person n. hundted feet nwny coiild not hnve herird me he­ t:iwse of the peculiar place] was in. and the road was easily ft thou­ i,;uml feet riway. 1 wHs not expected home until night. Even thc:n. if ] did not return. they would think I had stayed at a friend's Hll (34'

night and no one knew in what direction l had gone. I yelled till my voice was hardly a whisper but, of course, got no response. Once, in the afternoon, I heard a dry rustling ovel'head and a snake thrust its ugly head o,·er the opening. I had a horror of snakes and was paralyzed with terror lest it should fnll in on me, but prt�sently it slipped away over the rocks. I was growing weak from hunger and loss of blood and [ think I must have been in a kim\ nf stnpor, for the next. thing I remember was awaktming to find it pitch dark and several inches of water on the f1oor.

Overhead I could see a few stars through the opening, hut that was all. I stood up and tried to think of the meaning of the water.

Jt was steadily gurgling in at one of the side pipes and slowly ris­ ing about me. Then I knew that it must be a supply reservoir for some rilneh to the south and was being filled from some distance, probably for the day's irrigating. At first I thought T was going to die by drowning instead of starving but. the cold water reviyed me and quickened my wits and a thought flashed into my mind; when the water rose high enough would I not be able to float with it and so reach the top. I could only wait and see. It seemed an etel'Jlity as the water crept up. to knees. waist. chest. until finally I was standing on tiptoes. l'he cold water had chilled me although it was ;j. hot summer night, and I hegan thrn�hing around in the water to warm myself. . The water steadily rose till I could all but reach the opening by dl'opping under water and then leaping up. But the rise had stop­ ped. 'l'he opening grew lighter and I knew the dawu was coming nnd with it the water would sink again as it was drawn off. Now ,rhile the water was at its height was my only chance. ily fingers could just touch the edge but could not get t1 grip. Then I suddenly thought if l coulrl only get the slight aid offere<l by my clothes rope 1 could grasp it easily. But the rope was under seyen feet of water and I very much doubted my ability as a din�1·. 1t rne,1nt life or death, however, ,111d the pipe that had caused me to fall on 1ny head s1.:rved me a good turn now for by it. I could hold to the bolt.om with one hand while I groped around with the other. 'l'wif'.e ] ea.me up gasping without it; the third time my fingers caught the rope ;111d hrought it to the surface. It was not suc]1 an easy mnt.t.f'1' to throw from the water as from the solid bottom but by sinking undel' water l finally managed it and heard the shoe tumble down the siLle. The r-,ky above was 110w brightly lighted and T dreaded e\·er·y moment lest 1 should hear the sucking which ,,·ould show that the ni'ii-off lrnd begun. Knowing that if I failed once and pulled tlw rope into the w1:1ter again L would ne,·er get it outside a seeond time. I lay still a tew minutes deeply breathing to gain a little stnigth. Fnially 1 pulled the rope as tight as possible and crouching lo,,· in the water I gaYC a tremendous spring upward and pulled the rope. Ah! my left bawl ennght a good gtip of the etlge. I hnng n moment by my 0 hands. and then wriggled out ot' the opening t.o roll rlown th� side too we;1k to do anything bnt lie there in the blesseti �11nshine.

i\Iota Padilla ronming southward, Through the jm1glc, over prairies, Chanced upon c1. fertile valley, And there saw a people dwelling, Whom he charmed with mvstic music On a bugle that he carri�d, Gi\'en by his sire the Sonth Wind, \Vhich made music ns the songsters Whisp'rings ;L� of swnying poplars Echoing full of dashing waters.

There he charmed them with his music Till th,i wn.1Tiors and the maidens Cast their treasures all before him, I(nelt and claimed him for their leader. ( 36 l

TTT So one morning in the autumn, in the autumn of the tropicsHe had summoned all the people, Called he all his mighty 11ation.

So they carne from hills and valleys And his people now were thousa.uds.

For the years had sped and cil'cled.

together in the remaining summer and the next year. Sometimes they wandered fa.r tdong the beach and spent the day in a sheltered part of the cliff, sewing or reading or gathering moss. They learned from an old Arts a.nd Urafts :M1Lgazjne how to make lovely baskets out of seaweed and, together, they started a little class for all the c:hildren o.f the town to meet every Sunday morning, for there was 110 ehnrch in the village.

But to l'cturn to the day ·when first they made the ph�ns Jn the afternoon Letty drove to town after the mail. There was quite H little crowd of people tr�1.ding in the store and \.\'aiting for the mail. when she arrived. "\Vell, if there ain't Letitia l\'el�on ! " exclaimed oue lady. Then full of curiosity, ·'\Vhen'd she come baek1" "l.,ancl saket,; ! l1etty'� been here ever sinee, ever sinc:e-why · she come ho1ne yesterday 011 the 3:_Well, well, Letty, we was just talking about you." And they all com1neuccc\ shaking hands and talking to her.

"How is your .Aunt Ellen1" asked o n . e quiet 1.ncly �vho, had a basket of groceries on her lU'lll. ··She is t1nite well, thank you; but she is kept nt home sO mnch lately with canning fruit and all that she hasn't been able to visit \\"ith you l wish you conld come over, l\l.rs. Dunlnp." .'J'hen as she Sfl\Y that they were all listening. she added, "and all. of .. you. Do curn1; tomorrow and bring your rnernling and we'lr luiv�i. a sewing bee.''

So it was agreed, and tlrn next afternoon 'they l'eviYed the Ladies' Sewing Clnb tlrn t had once existed. and they took time from their wol'k after that to meet fl.nd b1! soci:-1li!e once a week.

That night. a.s Letitia was washing the supper dishes. while Aunt Ellen and ·uncle Joe were plann,i11g a ne,v north poech, �he thought wlw.t bl'ight. good girJs she had been with yest�rda.y. All they neNled was �1. litt)e 1nore care in their peri:;omtl appearance. for they were attrnctiv1} in their ways ''.And what dci.u· friends of .-\ 111,t Bllen 's.'' she 111used '·How could T ever lrn.ve been· ashaincJ uf thetn and thought them com1nor.1place ! VVhat lots of things l h,1,·c to Learn!"

So the clays fle,v, hy · and Letitia bceftme busier and more ea.ger i11 her ,vork. The women were so industrious that it pnt the men to shame and they co-operated with their wives to make tl1ei1· homes lwtteJ'. and in quite .c1 lively town meeting they decided to hnil\l a smooth-winding road to the meadow 'l'he Ladies' Se,ving Club llad started a.. circnlating library and the idefl grew from that to have ,1 permanent one in the town lrn.11. Letitia had gune tn the po�t­ office to send for plays. f01· her group ef girls had decided t() gi,·e a p!iiy for the librnry fund. In t!�e mail sbe reteivect a letter acl­ tlressed to :Miss J,diba �elsou.

But that night Letitia, 'with the picture of the girls, of Aunt Ellen's friends. of the new l'oacl. the library and 1,dl the possibilities before her, wrote to her f'ather and explained why she could not come.

... \tear silently rolled down, finding its way onto , the bit of paper the dOetor held in his hand as he perused it yet a second time. The cramped writing and the. a, ppeal, so touching in its simplicity, brought baek anew a scene which years before had hardened his heart against all the world--the sudden death of his own loved boy, Louis. He ha<l had no intention of opening the letter Ht first, Ln-t as he gave it a passing glance something about it irresistibly .fascinating held him, so different was it from the monotonous flood of his usual documents and letters, -trnd unconsciously he tore it open.

In a rno!llent, howeve1·, he ca.me back to his old artificial being.

"The idea, a.n t�xpensive trip to Sonth Germany and the only re­ \Vard H jack knife," thought he, listlessly tossing the letter aside.

But all that day as he went about on his regular business r011tine, a bit of paper with its individmtl cramped writing, so full of heart­ felt appeal, appeared before everything else. He could not shake it off or brush it ar:;ide; it was always there and with it a voice whis­ periug, ''\'Vhat is Reward 0ompa.re<l with Kindnessf' i\[eanwhile in the little peasant cottage Where Louis lived, .all was strangely and intensely silent.

Scarcely a whisper broke the stitlness of those long hours of waiting. Night canie and Louis.' eyes fairly ached from the strain of incessant gazing- up and down tha.t1 wearisome expanse of white road. The stars began to twinkle into their pl.mes and the slim pearl crescent to take up its favorite abode among them, bnt still he did not come.

Morning. greeted by the woodland songsters, dawned, and the sick father awoke from his night agonies, a shadow of desolation cross­ ing his w,rn face as he thought of the pains to be endured yet anoth�r day. Suddenly his thoughts were scattered by the clatter of hoofs resounding again and again on the hard pavenwnt leading to the rottage.

A spring of joy and of hope leapt to Louis' heart as he deftly opened and closed the door. 'l'he stranger, seeing the boy, quickly alighted and grasping Louis' hands in a clasp which expressed his feeling·s .far more than could words, asked if ''he'' were still alive.

Answering- in the affirmative with a voice quivering with trembling excitement. Louis led the g!'eatest of German physicians- to the sick bed.

Two months later, after the once sick father was well on the road to recoYery, the physician came for his last visit. at least his last medieal one, tu the fnmiliar cottage.

Th-. two w('l'P standing nlone in the tiny room, Louis and the 1lt1dor, when Louis. looking up with nlmost worshipful eyes into thi,. lace of the physichrn. said to him wonderingly. ··\Yhy is it you won·t tell every one c1hout your i-:.er11m-your c11re? 1 '!'he physician, stunned by this startling query, co11lcl nut speak for il moment. but when he did, his voice was full of tender emotion and sadness. '·Oh, Louis, l cannot tell you why I didn't; your gen­ erous heart could never understand my selfo-11 motin." Then his [a(·e took on a brighter look as he added, "But, Louis, you have taught me tJ1e yearnings of a world. I shall not keep it longer-no --1 shall give it to the long-neglected people."

Lu pruYidiug fol' the rnatprial needs of the High School the '-=itizens of Clal'emont tune shown heJ·oic genernsity.

That _re,u. nside from being a periotl ot' nrw expPrie11ces. was also a time of anticipation; for t.eacht-i·s and st111lents alike looked forward with eqnal eagemess to the f'ornpktinn of tilt' iww building with its large. well-lighte<l ela:-;s 1·oorns, its Innµ-. cool cot"l'itlors. 1111d it!-l llll(litorium where the tlltir<' St11t!t'n-f Body mi1. .d1tassernhle nt on<' time-a luxury not pos­ st!Sscd in those Lhws.
