He had led hla man on. a atep at a time aa John had planned he ahould do. and had gained one tiny atep thla afternoon. But he did the wrong thing next. He drove alowly away, not towards Shoestring, but down towards the mill. He stopped his team again and walked a e r o « the street and Gorbel. from hla office window, watched. An hour later when McWethy, the mill foreman, came in with his dally report, Gorbel met him In the hall way. "What waa Bradshaw prowling around the mill for?“ he asked. “ Oh. nothing. I guess. He stopped la to chin a minute and went on out* “ Didn’t talk to anybody else?“ “ No. . . . Oh, yes. . . . He did go over and visit a minute with young Belknap.“ Gorbel turned abruptly into hla office and stood beside hla desk, biting a lip, frowning. The office workers were going out Then footsteps, and Marta opened the door. “ Going to dance tonight?” she asked. He whirled on her, raging. “Good lord. Marie, do you think all I've got to do Is dance? Not I’ve got the evening fu ll!” She bridled at his tone. “ Wall, you needn’t be so rough about I t r “ And you needn’t nag day after day!” “ Sa-a-ay 1“ She closed the door.

Going to drive over to Shoe string for the evening?” “ T haven't been In Shoestring for a month!“ “ Yon lie !" “ Don't you tell— " “ Tou lie !" she cried again, cutting him off.

John Belknap did not go townward with the rest of the crew. He turned In the other direction and followed the road past the last lighted habita tion. The sheriff was there, driving bis team slowly up and down, waiting. “ Get In," he said gruffly, and lifted the robe to make room beside him. Settled there beside the hulking figure. John listened attentively while the sheriff told what he had to tell ” It ain’t so much.” be « I d . "but be admitted he was out by their gaaollne drum with this fellow. Cases have hung on smaller things than that. When we get the stomach analysis we’ll know whether he's lyin' about the man's bein' boosed up or n ot“ “ And wbat about tbe old Job?" John asked, when he had finished. “ Smooth as silk!

She wouldn’t hare It 'nd her housekeeper told how he ham mered on tbe door and begged!" John moved uneasily. "H e used to be sweet on her. all right, and It looked for a time, before her daddy died, like she waa goln' lo reciprocate, or whatever you call It. But It’s different now. . , . Yeab. smart In some ways! He's made It look bad for you for a time but Johnny.

"I get you. ton Women's way* are hard for a man to follow. But I notice we keep tryln' and tryln' and sometime* . . . we get the hang of 'em !” A world of underetaodlog ami aym pathy and encouragement came witn the tone and John left the sheriff with spirits higher than they had been for days. He waa restless after bis supper that night. This was Saturday and the wbola town waa gathering at tha recreation ball for the weekly dance.

A sub ject much discussed: « question o f ten ask«j. Are you more interested in the paper box in which you find a precious gem than you are the gem? I f the wrapper is more at tractive than the g ift therein be ware. Is the husk about the ear of com worth more than the grain? What is the outstanding value o f the Scriptures? Are you an idol worshipper? Many people are. Tbe bible may be an idol and is to many. Do you stumble over the vehicle in which beautiful truths are present "From one Sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship be fore roe," saith the I<ord. I wonder if thia is so to-day. How long since you have been in the house o f prayer to worship God? How much better to worship him now w illingly ami in love than to await the day of his wrath whn every knee shall how ami every tongue shall confess.

The "drive away" Is not new; often I have driven cars fro. Detroit to towns in Ohio or Indiana or Michigan to »ako delivery. There were no good roads in those days, and the pwople where I drove had never seen a »otor car before. My first really enthusiastic customers were Country Doctors. They were the first to realize the value of dependable transportation to a widely scattered practice. _ . Even today I occasionally hear fro» so»o of those first Ford user». We had to teach local »echanlcs how to care for the oars. a is how Ford Service began, whkwli is no. found everywhere in the world. We believed fro» the beginning that a sale does not co.pleto our transaction with our custo»er — it creates upon us an obligation to see that our customer's car gives hi» service. Ford Dealers kn6. their duty to the public In this respect. I can say of Ford Dealers generally that they have boon and are aen of character and standing in their communities. Most of them have been with us »any years, which indicates that wo agree on basic business principles. The Company provides that the mothods used o se . the Ford car are consistent with the self-respect of the Dealers who handle It. The present Ford V-8 Is the peak of our 30 years experience. We have never made a better car. Its eight-cylinder engino is powerful and smooth running. The car is admittedly very good looking and has comfortable riding qualities. It is economical in operation because of advancod engino design and low car weight. It is the fastest, roomiest and most poworful car wo have ever built. f * Mr- and M rs.
