FIFTH EPISODE
The Gathering Storm.

Daughters are dangerous charges,
Pierpont," said Judge Freeman The
two elderly men stood watching the
dance which was in full swing at
the coming-out party of Gloria Stat
ford. The men were related to each
other by marriage-the marriage of
Stafford's son David and Freeman's 5
daughter Lois-whatever relations
that made them.
Pierpont Stafford nodded a worried
assent to the Judges statement and.

grace and charm OF his own girl. who

a specific cause for the judges dole
full remark. What he saw puzzled
him considerably. He saw Lois, not
dancing, but. watching Gloria and F're-
neau. There was look Of unmistak-
face. He saw his son David speak to
her and put his hand on her arm, only
to have her shake him on and move
away into the crowd.
Pierpont felt suddenly terribly
afraid for his sons honor. and a gnaw-
ing ache in his heart for Lois ia
ther, who stood beside him. But It
was far too delicate situation for the
two men to discuss-yet
children are hostages Of fortune,

After several miles of ''up hill and

Then that's all right" chirruped
Gloria, happily. you shall most
certainly have this tea with me, and
I'm famished."
When they reached the farmhouse,
which called itself an inn, the plump
landlady greeted Gloria with pleased
recognition and ushered them into the
parlor, saying that she would hasten
with their tea and bring the table to
them there by the fire. Ffeneau

Spoiled by women as he was he felt
that however sincerely he wanted this

COTTON GROWING PROFITS

The Pima variety of Egyptian cot ion is the most profitable crop ever grown in this region. It is aeknow- ledged Co he the finest cotton pro duced, and destined to make this region famous the world over, and will bring high prices for many years to come. The labor shortage due tn the working of the Draft Law, makes it imperative that em- ployers of farm help get the max mum returns from their employees ln growing cotton, this means the pest labor saving tools and equip ment. Nearly the entire output of steel is being taken by the govern ment leaving a big shortage to sup ply the domestic use of this country and the foreign demand. All au- thorities agree that next year will see a big shortage. If you intend to grow cotton, it is important that you buy your machinery and equip- ment now. We can supply you with the goods on orders placed now but do not know what we can do in six months.
