CHAPTER xxi.

| Croyden's election came as a COM
plete surprise, but its meaning was
perfectly clear to Kennard. He had
| lost control of the board of directors.
In the face of that fact it mattered but
little what particular lure had secured
Hardness vote. The purpose of the
! bargain was of more importance than
its price. 1t was not, however, until
he saw his power threatened that Ken
nard realized how vitality interested he
was in retaining it. Six months be-
fore he would have retired without a
regret. But those six months had ut
terly changed his attitude. With the
work OF organization something OF his
, old enthusiasm had returned, and with
a broader, far more reaching purpose
than he had ever known before. The
disgust and Irritation which had made
him turn to the syndicate as a refuge,
disappeared with the assumption of
wider RESPONSE Utilities, and his indif-
ference gave place to calm study of
existing conditions.
1t did not require much shrewdness
to predict that Mr.. Trundell would be
the moving spirit in whatever changes
the new majority in the board con-
templated. Kennard had watched him
with some anxiety from the very first.
for the man Immediately impressed
him as one of those who write success
with big s, impaled on two parallel
lines Undoubtedly he had engineered
the move which wrested the control
from the manufacturers. The question
was. why had he done this? ! If tha
management had not been successful.
the purpose would have been evident.
But the company had made money
mora than 1t was expected to make
when completely organized, mich more,
than he estimates had indicated for
the first six months. That was what
puzzled Kennard Mr.. Trundell was
not man to desire power simply for
its own sake, especially as that power
cold last only until the next election,
when new directors might be chosen.
The meetings of the board which fol~
lowad Croydens election did not sup
ply any answer to these questions. No
IMPORTANT changes were inaugurated
by the newly constituted majority.
AT the second meeting, it is true, Mr..
Trrndell proposed that all cases Of in
jrries to employees should be turned
over to an accident insurance COM
rany to be settled or defended as the
Insurers chose, but this proposal was
more or less in line with Kennard's
inclination to free himself from per
so2al contact as much as possible. 1t
was good business move, and one
almost necessary with the army OF
workers. in the companies employ.
But though he appreciated It's prac-
teal aspect, the old feeling of parental
responsibility would not permit Ken
nard to view the innovation without
some misgiving. This delegation OF
authority had something cold-blooded
about 1t which he instinctively dis
trusted. To have some one injured IN
your service, and then coolly refer him
3r his family to an insurance company,
seemed heartless and inhuman. But
1ifficult as It was to adjust himself to

The last rumbling notes of the or

Creek, Lenoir county, one of the best
farmers i'm the State, was here yester-
day. He says that crops in his sec
ton are "twiXt and tween" some
good and some sorry AS to cotton
and tobacco this holds true. The to-
bacco crop will be small, and the
corn crop is poor Some of the farm
ers have already sold their growing
cotton crop at ten cents a pound but
Mr.. Wood is waiting to see if the
| figure would go. 10 thirteen cents. He
expected that price to be reached.
