pleased with himself for the progress
he had made
Glad you've got a decent hat on"
he said, looking apprOVingly at her
correct headgear. Cant stand for wom-
en- riding about the country bare
headed with their store hair getting
Iull or dirt. Wouldn't be so bad if
they washed it, but it's ten to one it
gets put TO bed without even a brush
ing. shop that way, too. Wen-knoWn
doctors wife goes all over town half
dressed. Can't tell her from a clerk
in the stores"
do drive slowly, William" urged
Mrs. Crouch, timidly. And dear, never
mind the little things that go wrong
IN the street It makes me so nervous
70 nave them take your mind off the
car. You always see everything that
ought TO be corrected, and it's just
splendid OF you, but do wait until you
understand the machine better"
Glad you admit I've got a mind. Ma
ria, said her husband pleasantly
Don't worry, little woman; / know
a Thing or two about this car. Beat
IT.! he yelled TO a dog that ran bark
ing under the front wheels The car
swerved as Mr.. Crouch tried to avoid
/ the animal and il required his whole
attention for the next few minutes to
set it on to the level road again.
Killed "A Dog.
KILLED that beast, all right" he said.
| Never mind, Maria Had no business
/ being a dog. Oh, no; there you are
again. you yelping bag O. bones. No
| license. Where's the dog catcher thai
gets fat salary for nabbinS some old
/ lady's pet poodle once a year. II

there's five hundred. Do sit still, Ma
ria. What on earth's the matter with

you bump so, william" said Mrs
/ Crouch, piteOusly, as, with teeth firm
/ ~ set, she clung to the sides of the
/ car. st never rode in a machine like
this before"
Isn't that just like a woman!" cried
I Mr. Crouch. I'm driving the car all
right. It's these COMPOUNDED cross
walks that were put down in the year
one Made them three feet above The
rest of the street so the pioneers could
keep their feet dry. Mud used to go
| over the wagon hubs when first came
/ to Salt Lake. All right for those days
but you'd think they'd have paved
crossings by this time"
In the next block, a young girl ran
directly across the path of the car not
i seeming to hear the horn that was
sounded furiously. "StOne deaf and
running with her head down. Won't
/ look or listen either If / killed that
girl it would be states prison for me
with no recommendation for mercy.
Germany's the place. Arrest pedestrl-
ans there who get in the way of v@-
hicles and fine EN- il they get hurt
Women learn - take care OF them
selves and not act like scaret chick

Several children playing en- a nev. w.
made lawn diverted the attention of
Mr.. Crouch from his business OF driv-
/ ing the car. Only a fortunate turn
prevented its collision with a trolley
/ pole. ."ClOse shave, remarked Mr..
/ Crouch when the danger was passed
I ''NO business having those poles in the
middle of the street. oh. yes they're
/ taking them out, one every little while,
but il seems to make no impression
on the forest of hickory uprights scat
tered through this beautiful city of
ours. And did you see that bunch OF
kids? Man I know lives there. Just
fixed up his lawn next the street and
now all the children in the neighbOr-
4 No, they weren't his own either.
Hasn't got any. What's the use OF a
public Fairgrounds when kids are al
lowed TO camp on anybody's private
] property? What if it is next the
street, He's got TO take care of II and
hor's abuse if il don't look right It's
the limit"
Strike Real boulevard.
On Main street below Ninth South
I the car turned into a beautiful wide
boulevard. ''This is the best ever"
said Mr.. Crouch as they sped along
smoothly. Ought TO be miles of road
watch the joy riders. Talk about the
speed limit. They don't give a bean
for the city ordinance and no more
