FORD'S NEW PEACE TRIP

When Henry Ford says that he
doesn't know whether the President
has been playing politics with the IN
ternational situation he says quite a
bit. He says enough to keep the
President busy thinking about it for
a few days
For Ford is getting down to cases
now He is talking facts and talk
ing in a way that is pretty sure to
attract attention. Ford CONTROLS
the talk now. 1t isn't as il was when
all Ford had was shipful of folks
and a wad Of money.
When Ford had that shipful of
folks THE OTHER FELLOWS HAD
THE INK. And, goodness, how they
did spatter that ink around. But now
it's different FORD is BUYING
THE INK NOW-and he determins
WHAT THE INK SHALL SAY.

BUYING A GIFT

While on a Shopping

to buy all right. It
wasn't that. But he kept wandering
ABOUT looking at the saleswomen be-
nina the counters with all the perplex-
lty OF a dog trying to recall where
he had buried a soup bone.
He stood off to one side staring in
tently at a busy young creature with
dark bay hair behind the ribbon coun-
ter, and at last walked up within talk
ing distance.
Don't suppose you can leave here
for few minutes, can your he be-

"W-h-a-tr"
Il say-never mind. I mean wait a
minute I'll be back"
And he rushed away to hide his con-
fusion from the other shoppers. he
did not return, but went over to an
other aisle and began sizing up peo-
pie there, both in front and behind the
counters.
Was the man bughouse? No. Just
be patient and you'll hear all about it,
He kept looking and looking, and at
last his gaze took in tall young wom-
an-reasonably young-with a bunch
OF small packages tucked under her
arm. He walked up to her, hesitated,
and then blurted: BEG pardon,
madam, but may speak to you a mo.
ment?"
She gave him look and started to
hurry away, but he was obliged, hav-

ing gone that far, to make good and
convince her Of the innocence of his
motives.
Don't be alarmed" he said, catch
ing up with her. "I'm not trying to
flirt or get fresh. Honestly, now, I'm
not in the habit of speaking to wom-
en- l don't know. Look me over and
you'll see that I'm well-meaning
enough. But the fact is you-ah, you
ah, you're just the same size as my
wife-apparently! And"
The woman gasped. 4 don't see"
she began.
ooh, but l want to ask favor of
you," went on the male shopper, more
at ease now. "Ive looked all over the
saleswomen and the only one that
would do was busy behind the ribbon
counter, but you're just precisely what
1 need-oh, beg your pardon, mean
you're just exactly my wife's size and
can tell me what to ask for. You
see, l came here to buy her shirt
waist that she's been dropping little
hints about, and now that I'm here
it's just struck me that 1 haven't the
remotest idea about her size. I'm the
densest person you ever saw about
such things-don't even know my own
waist measurement. I'm positive,
though, that whatever your size is
would do for her. You may be an
inch taller than my wife, but that's
about the only difference"
Its a little unconventional, isn't
it?" the woman smiled not unpleas-
ansly. "Still don't see why shouldn't
tell you that my size is-that my
shirtwaists are usually size thirty
six"
They had been walking down the
aisle and were now right by the shirt
waist counter.
Il had a blue one picked out there"
remarked the man, that seemed to be
about what | wanted to get, but I
didn't know what size it was. See!
That'n lying over there on top Of that
pink outfit"

blue?" the woman asked significantly,
after biting her lips for a moment.
'Why-er-well, of course she hasn't
seen it," replied the male shopper. do
you suppose she'd like some other color
better?'
"YOu see," pointed out the kind wom-
an in considerable, half-sympathetic
tones, shat particular shade of blue
doesn't go with any other color. Now,
If l were receiving a shirtwaist for
Christmas should want white waist.
OF course your wife may have ex-
pressed preference for some other
color. No? Well, now you understand
It's none of my affair-and this is GER
tainly rather informal, me helping you
to select something for your wife,
whom l don't even know, TO say moth
ing of not even knowing your name
but l should think any woman would
be delighted with something like this
one, for instance" And she reached
over to pick up one with lot of lace
and mosquito netting on the front of it.
The male person inquired the price.
1t was 81 more than the blue one he
had selected, but he said he would
take it, and no questions asked.
"Send it out to number so-and-so
Such-and-such street, and-oh, that
won't do. 1t might be delivered when
she was at home and that would queer
the whole thing. Better send it to my
office. Thomas J. Wingett is the name,
in the Pretentious building. I'd carry
1t, but I've got lot Of stops to make"
"Wingett," repeated the woman
after hearing his name there's Mrs.
Wingett in our card club. You don't
happen to be Mrs. Alice Wingett's hus-
band, do your"
II sure am" grinned the man. "She's
the girl that's going to get that
shirtwaist off the pine tree next Mon
day."
"Well, Of all things" gasped the
kindly disposed woman. 81 don't know
Alice Wingett so very well. but I've
met her at the club, and it does seem
funny that should be helping her hus.
band to pick out Christmas present
for her. My name is Cummins. don't
suppose you know my husband. He
travels most Of the time"
Seems to me I've heard Alice speak
of Mrs. Cummins," says Wingett. "Er
by the way, mebby you'd better not
say anything to Alice when you see
her about-about how informally we
were introduced. She might think 1t
funny. Like as not she'd think I'd
been walking up and down the aisle
staring at folks"
/ II have a notion to tell her what
you just said," gurgled Mrs. Cum
Minis. 81 guess won't though. Seems
! to me the joke would be partly on
, me. Well, l hope Alice likes the shirt
waist"
IF she doesn't she hasn't good
TASTE" grinned Wingett. II certainly
am obliged to you. If you can't make
up your mind what to get your hus-
band, let me know, and mebby l can
1 help you out"
And he bowed gracefully as his new
acquaintance gathered up her pack
