[IM WARBURTON stood on (he hill
only to swerve aside and diverge rrom
the Hlnman acres and cross the bridg#,
leaving the latter property marooned
amid its rich pastures and woodlands.
Perhaps It didn’t matter, especially,
Jim was thinking this May morning,
for as far as he knew or cared the
Hlnman house was still empty and des-
olate. Hlnmans and Warburtons had
been unfriendly for some years—owing
to a marriage that ended In divorce be-
tween two members of the families.
"There was only one Hlnman worth
looking at tn this world," gloomed Jim
where the dtvlding line separated
the Hlnman property from the lard . ,
Of bla attestor*, -w hK
Warburton acres had taken on a new
value when the great motor highway
hnd out through nnvt of the property
Let Ik Thvt Pledge —

Tinned me down flat for that
Meade fellow. Don’t know as I blame
her for I’m not much account and he
has barrels of coin.”
He walked along the Imaginary
boundary line, remembered something
about white birches and, finding them,
scratched the mossy turf and found
an ancient landmark—a small square
of white stone on which small letter-
ing was chiseled. It proved to mark
the property of James Warburton, In
the “yr. 1830.” He walked down to
the highway but could not find the oth-
er marker. He knew that the line was
a straight on* "east from white
marker."
If the new highway had only run
on for another fifteen feet some of the
Hlnman property would have bordered
on It, but what difference would that
make to the Hlnmans—Sylvia and her
aunt were the only ones left, and they
lived In New York city.
A week later, Jin*, coming back
home from the county seat for a week-
end In his lonely house heard strange
news from his man of all work, Han-
son.
"Yes, sir. Mr. Warburton, there be
squatters on your property,” declared
Hanaon. "Such a nerve—”
"Squatters! Gypsies?” asked Jim,
frowning,
"Nothing like thatl Two wimmln
be building a little bungalow—all
themselves, one of them portable
things, and the outalde Is nailed with
silver birch logs and there's a sign
a-swlnging—''The Green Ladies Tea
House’—Shucks, to be trespaisln’ and
all.”
After the early dinner, Jim, cool,
satisfied that Hanson's story was
somewhat exaggerated, walked down
the lon^ garden, through the rustic
gate and across the old orchard of
dead trees to the open hillside where
scattered birches marched down the
hill to the new highway.
The new bungalow, all silvery white
where It wasn’t stained mpen or
brown, was tficjre, and from toe kitch-
en In the rear, came the aroma of good
things to eat—fried chicken, new as-
paragus, strawberry shortcake—Jim’s
mouth watered. Mrs. Hanson’s cook-
ing was below par. He frowned again
and walked up to the white birches,
te look at the boundary mark. He
could aee the little bungalow, built Just
Inside the Warburton property, so as
to take advantage of the coveted po-
sition on the motor road, and he could
see • number of cars parked on the
private road on the other side that
A?*,To the Hlnman house.
Inside the little house It was cozy
enough. Green tables set with worn
but exquisite damask, and dainty old
china and silver. In the background
was a tall, silver-haired woman In a
green dress, and watting on a group
of prosperous-looking motorists, was a
pretty waitress also weiring a short
green frock and a crisp organdie
apron. She did not see Jim Warbur-
ton until she had brought dessert to
the large table, then she came to him
with a tumbler of water and a napkin.
"Jim Warburton!” she exclaimed.
"Sylvia—Mrs. Meade?” he stam-
mered awkwardly. "I never dreamed
It ebuld be you or your aunt."
"Why not?” she asked lightly, still
with that blush of embarrassment.
"Auntla and I must live—and the old
house Is too far back from the road te
be profitable—end we even plan te
sleep here, because It Is so lonely down
there In the woods."
"The old place has been closed too
long, Sylvia. Now, why can’t you and
Miss Hlnman come over to Warburton
and stay In the south wing until you
iare settled her#?”
"I will bring Aunt Winifred,” said
Sylvia and departed without taking his
order at all. Later on, the three dined
amicably together, and Jim told them
that he had come there Intending to
oust them from his land.
"Your land?” repeated Sylvla’a thrill-
ing votce. "Why, Jtm, we have the
old deeds, you know, and the line ts
a curve from the white mark up above
to the three birches opposite the mag-
nolia tree on your south lawn! So we
are on Hlnman property and your gar-
den trespasses a hit, bqt what la that
between neighbors?”
■Tim blushed. "You said Meade did
not come with you?”
