WHY III) MAJ. V1RANTLANU
DRIVE HIS CAR BACKWARD?
Whether he was afraUFI would
be nervous or for some other rea
son, Maj. Grantland drove his car
slowly on the way ourf Aber
deen. For the first time !I began
to wonder about the rest at the
nartv
I didn't s2e the Durkees," I
naid to Dicky. "Where did they
"They got away Jnst before we

Dicky replied teasingly. "Ton see

confirmed my knowledge that if

hospitality. So Alfred and the
girls have f!xed up &om story
about Mrs. Durkee having a head
ache and needing attention, and
they are flying homward, ac
companied by auntleV smelling
salts and camphor. Ed ith ana
Leila say she never stirs from
home without a good-sued medi
cine cabinet concealed in her
gown."
The Closed Car Passed.
I laughed Involuntarily at bis
nonsense, but tbe query wnicn
had annoyed me many times be
fore came freshly to my mind.
Why did he always make that ri
diculous pause before the name of
Edith Fairfax? Was It' because
he always thonght of it first
when the two s-sters were under
discussion, began to speak, her
name first, and then involuntarily
paused because he feared I might
notice It, and caught himself and
went on for the same reason? No
doubt I would have gone on tor
menting myself indefinitely if my
three curves when Maj. Grantland
said ic stacatto fashion to Dicky:
"Road swings in at the left
there, ch?"
"Yea, right by that big free."
Dicky replied.
'Good." In another secona ne

switched to normal driving again,
and we were speeding down an
other road at a pace which I knew
would outdistance anyth ng be
hind us.
'Hope you weren't frightened.
Mrs. Craham," Maj. Grantiana
threw over his shoulder. "I saw
I had missed the road, and I al
ways drive backward whenever 1
can. I might neea u sometimes.
and it's good practice."
It was the lamest of excuses.
but I. of course, had no other
course than tQ pretend to accept
"I was not frightened in The
least," I said a bit untruthtfully?
"and I envy you the skill you have
just exhibited

by the sudden blowing of an auto
horn back of us, the signal that
car behind us wished to pass.
To lay surprise for I knew
that if this car was like the oth
ers owned by Maj. Grantland
there were few in the world that
could pass It if its owner wished to
keep it ahead, and he usually did
so wish he drew the car to one
side of the road, and the closed
car which we had seen at the sta
tion flew by us.
The officer reduced his speed
at once -until we were almost
crawling. As the car ahead disap
peared around one of the curves
of the winding road Ma. Grant
land spoke tersely:
Dicky interposed teas ngly. but
his mother, who I knew had been
literally holding her breath during
the backward flight, interrupted
him
'If I ever hear of either one of
you driving a car like that." sho
said scathingly, "I'll I'll take
Junior away from the both of
you."

He threw the big machine into

toward the road behind him be
gan to run tbe car back as dexter
ously and almost as swiftly as he
had been guiding it in the other
direction. I 3aw that Dicky was
intently watching out of the rear
window for any gleam of light
which would signal the approacn
