But a glance ut Sarah's radiantly happy face as she danced up and down the hall, made the mother change her mind . again. Soon she and the happy little girl joined the , others at the car, where John was packing In the- fishing tackle and bait. A short drive brought thorn- to the river.

The two high gears, thir and fourth, are so coupled that the shift is of the utmost simplicity and convenience: fool proof and less noisy than in any other type of transmission.

It requires little effort, and seemingly never misses nor causes the gears to clash, even when the shift is made at upwards of .r0 miles an hour.
