"M-m-m, thanks" interrupted Sam
Hupp, a little dryly. Let me tell you
something. young 'un. I've got what
you might call thirty-horse-power
mind. keep it running on high all
the time, with the muller cut out, and
you can hear me coming for miles.

impressively--"the Old Man, boy, has

you can't even hear the engine purr.

He wished they'd hurry. The business
of the week was being boiled down
there. Those conferences were great
cauldrons into which the days BUSH
ness, or the weeks, was dumped, to
be boiled, stirred, SKINNED, cooled.
Jock had never been privileged to at
tend one of these meetings. Perhaps
by this time next week he might have
a spoon in the stirring, too
There came the murmur Of voices as
door was opened. The voices came
nearer. Then quick footsteps. Jock
recognized them. He rose, smiling.
Sam Hupp, vibrating electric energy,
breezed in.
"Oh-heIloP' he said, surprised.
Jocks smile widened to a grin. "You
back?"
Hello, Hupp," he said, cool1y. It
was the first time that he had omitted
the prefix. "You just bet I'm back"
There flashed across Sam Hupp's
face curious little look. The next
instant it was gone.
WELL" said Jock, and took long
breath.
"Mr. Berg wants to see you"
Hupp plunged into his work.
"Me? The Old Man wants to see

Better tell him"

that was the way they treated fell
low who had turned his first real
trick, why, very well. He flung out
of the little room and made straight
for the Old Mans office.
Seated at his great fat table desk
Bartholomew Berg did not look up
as Jock entered. This was character
istic of the Old Man. Everything
about the chief was deliberate, sure
unhurried. He finished the work II

there waiting his pleasure. When a

Miss Gait had complete layout on
the desk before her-scrap books,
cuts, copy, magazines. There was
little smudge on the end of her nose.
Grace Gait was writing about magne-
tos. She was writing about magnetos
in way to make you want to drop
your customer, or your ironing, or
your game, and go, downtown and
buy that particular kind of magnetic
at once. Which is the secretest part of
the wizardry of advertising copy. To
look at Grace Gait you would have
thought that she should have been
writing about the rose-tinted jars in
Jock McChesney's hands instead of
about such things as ignition, and in
sulation, and ball bearings, and Undue
ton windings. But it was Grace
Calls gift that she. could take just
such hard, dry, technical facts and
weave them into story that you fol-
lowed to the end. She could make you
see the romance in condensers and
transformers. She had the power that
caused the reader to lose himself in
the charm of magnetic poles, and ball
bearings, and high-tension sparks.
"Just dropped in to say good-by,
said Jock, very casually. Going TO

"Athena?" Grace Gait regarded him

"Not so bad, eh?" he boosted.

Wit Jolt Jock realized she had forgotten all about him.

Anything you like" said Jock gra-
ciously.
"Well, then, don't be afraid Of being
embarrassed and fused. If you blush
and stammer little, she'll like it.
Play up the coy stuff"
"The coy stuff echoed Jock. II
hadn't thought much about my atti-
tude toward the-er-the lady"-a
little stiffly.
"Well, you'd better" answered Miss
Gait crisply. She put out her hand in
much the same manner as Sam Hupp
had used. Good luck to you. I'll have
to ask you to go now. I'm trying to
make this magnetic sound like some
thing without which no home is COM
plete, and to make people see that
there's as much difference between it
and every other magnetic as there is
between the steam shovels that dug
out the Panama Canal and the junk
that the French left there" She
stopped. Her eyes took on far-away
look. Her lips were parted slightly.
''Why, that's not bad idea-that
last. I'll use that III"
Sfe began to scribble rapidly on
the sheet of paper before her. With a
| jolt Jock McChesney realized that she
had forgotten all about him. He walk
ed quietly to the door, opened it, shut
it very quietly, then made for the
nearest telephone. He knew one WON
an he could count on to be proud OF
him. He gave his number, waited a

Then he smiled.
