NUTHIN' MUCH.


In the beginning there was
Willie's father. Then came Viii
lies mother, and then came Will
lie.
In the years since the begin
ming, howver, Willie's father
eliminated himself from the stu
alton, but his absence BECAME a
palpable factor in the affairs of
Willie and his mother, and he was
indeed gone but not forgotten.
So there is only Willie and his
mother, and they are in a stuffy
room far above the street, lighted
by one narrow window through
which brick walls and smoke
clouds may be seen.
Willie'S mother is lying on the
ragged bed in the corner of the
room, and the half light which
succeeds in getting past the high
walls and the smoke reveals her
motionless, save as her pale fea-
lures may writhe with some
spasm of pain.
Willie, seated at the table
munching his bread, thought of
the mother who had laviShed up
on him everything that a heart
full of unselfsh devotion could
provide out of a meager possibil-
ity. They had lived together for
many, many years, it seemed to
Willie. He remembered that
very long time ago she had re-
ceived a letter from somewhere
which must have contained some
thing very sad, for she had cried
over it many times.

mans quit 'er, I guess"
Willie had but vague recollec-
tions of the "ole man." too vague
to have a place in his thoughts
as he saw that his mother was
suffering.
1t seemed peculiar to Willie
that his mother should be sick.
Since he could remember she had
never complained of illness. True
that in the cold morning, when
the frost was thick on the win
dows, he had sat up in bed and
had seen his mother cease in her
efforts to kindle the fire in their
rickety stove, and, rocking to and
fro, her hands clasped about her
knees, cry silently and bitterly.
Then he had crawled from the
bed and hoped over to where she
sat on the cold floor before the
stove, and, putting his arms
around her, haQ inquired the
cause of her tears.
ITS only the rheumatic,
dearie," she had always said, and
together they had crept back into
the bed, while the fire exerted its
puny force against the cold which
hung drearily upon everything in
the room. But she was sick, and
she lay on the bed with the COM
forter drawn tight around her.
breast, and as he looked at her a
great and awful dread arose in,
his throat and choked him. He;
crept up silently and put his arms
aver her. She drew his head
down to her own and kissed him

Mortgaging of Homes
By Motor Buyers Denied

AS a ground for active agitation
against the automobile, the old jest
about the mortgage on the house, to
pay for the automobile, is no longer
used, but that there are still people
who take the idea seriously is shown
by the experience of one Of the heads
Of a big automobile manufacturing
company. While on a recent trip to
the Pacific Coast. he was in a social
group where automobiles were being
discussed, but where his connection
with an automobile company had not
been brought up. The most vigorous
speaker In the group was holding forth
on how people all over the country are
mortgaging their houses to pay for
their machines. Thinking that the
speaker might have some direct infor-
nation bearing on the subject, the au-
tomoblle official, with a view to learn
ing more about a phase Of the. busi-
ness that he himself had never en-
countered, asked: "Well. is It actually
true that people do mortgage their
homes? Do you know of any instances
of it?"
"True?" snorted the man who knew
all about It, why. they tell me that
the Such-and-Such. company in the
East there (naming the automobile
mans own company has its safe
packed full of mortgages turned in as
part payment on Its cars"
1t would have been impolite to refute
the man too directly. SO. the, automo.
bile official kept silence, entertainins
, talk ed-of mortgaging Is more talk thar

Bennett; secretary, James E. Keeper
ley: treasurer, Walter Stewart; assist
ant general and factory manager, Har-
vey L. Hooke.
The factory force has been systema-
tized and the production Of the factory
is already almost double what It was
when Mr.. WHY'S purchased control.

to make not less than 1000 trucks in the
next fiscal year. The product Is being
refined by the advent Of Carl A. Ner-
acher the Willys-Overland Company &

assumption that the Gramm will be far
more prominent in the industry than
it has hitherto been. The sales will be
made through the commercial car de-
partment Of the willys-Overland Com

. OF MOTOR INDUSTRY
Began His Automobile
Career With the Late
Col. A. A. Pope.

Among the automobile dealers Of
Washington are a number of men
who have been identified with the
motor industry for years. Among
them is r. c. Smith, president of the
Washington Overland Motor Com
pany, who graduated from the ranks
Of the bicycle men to the automobile
industry. He began his automobile
career with the late Col. Albert A.
Pope. who was a big figure in the
bicycle game, and who achieved much
fame in the automobile industry. Mr..
Smith held a number of positions
under Colonel Pope and had good
mechanical training in his factory.
Later he went with the REQ Motor Car
Company as a travelling salesman and
covered the entire country for this
concern.
He Joined the WHY'S Or

Southern territory for the product OF
John N. WHY'S, making his head

Speed of Motor Cars
Increasing Every Decade

while watching the great racing
cars fly around the course at almost
lightning speed in the 800 mile race at
indianapolis Memorial Day, one was
impressed with the truth that things
are not as they used to be-" said a we'll
known automobile dealer.
'In looking back over a brief period
OF sixteen years. we find that 1t was
as late as 1896 when England repealed
the famous locomotive act passed In
1865 by the enemies Of the road loco
motive, and which caused almost utter
stagnation in motor car building until
it's repeal. Among other things, this
act prescribed that the number of per-
sons required to drive the locomotive
should be increased to three; that a
man should precede with a red flag;
that the maximum limit should be re-
duced to four miles an hour; and that
they should be forbidden ever to blow
off steam. That the public mind un-
derwent a sudden change as to what
was considered proper safety and speed
is evidenced by the fact that in just
ten years. on January 26.. 1906: to be
accurate, at Ormond Beach, Fla, one
mile was Travelled by Marriott in Is 1-5
seconds. In six years we find the win
ner of the Indianapolis meet making an
average of 1872 miles an hour for q
distance OF 500 miles. These incidents
are indubitable proof that the world
moves"
