hands. And even yet perhaps the day
would come when Cranston would
know at last that Snowbird's words,
after the fight of long ago, were true.
The twilight was falling over the
snow, so Snowbird and Dan turned to
the toll Of building a sled.
The snow was steel-gray In the
moonlight when the little party made
their start down the long train. Their
preparations simple and crude as they
were, had taken hours Of ceaseless
labor on the part of the three. The
AK, its edge dulled by the flame and
its handle burned away, had been
cooled in the snow. and with one
sound arm, Lennox had driven the hot
nails that Snowbird gathered from
the ashes of one Of the outhuildings.
The embers Of the house itself still
glowed red in the darkness.
Dan had cut the green limbs of the
trees and planed them with his ak.
The sled had been completed, handles
attached for pushing it, and a piece Of
fence wire fastened with nails as a
rope to pull it. The warm mackinaws
Of both Of them as well as the one
blanket that Lennox had saved from

frontiersman's wasted body-Dan and
Snowbird hoping to keep warm by the
exercise of propellng the sled. Ex-
cept for the dull AK and the half
empty pistol their only equipment
was single charred pot for melting
snow that Dan had recovered from
the ashes of the kitchen.
The three had worked almost In
silence Words didn't help now, They
wasted no sorely needed breath. But
they did have one minute TO talk when
they got to the top of the little ridge
that had overlooked the house.

CHARGES MISMANAGEMENT

HENRY FORD, millionaire auto
mobile manufacture and also a cap
able railroad executive, in an inter-
view in New York the past week,
charges the big railroads of the
country with poor management, which
he says figures largely in the pre-
sent controversy between the rail
road men and railroad executives.
Ford hits the nail directly on the
head when he says "the people who
own the railroads care more about
the market value and market mani
pulations of their stock than they do
about giving service to the people,
Ford says, "letR the railroads cut
down on their dividends and cut out
their stock manipulations, instead of
trying TO cut the wages of the
worker, who is doing the best he can
for the small return.
Ford knows what he is talking
about. 1t is not so long ago that
Ford bought what was virtually a
streak of rust and has made big,
paying proposition out Of it. He
started out by putting efficient men
into the higher offices of his road and
giving service to the public. He
picked only the best men for the
different jobs and then raised the
wages of his employees, and were
it not for the fact that the govern
ment will not permit him he would
reduce freight rates on his railroad
far below that. now charged on other
railroads of the country.
Ford believes in efficiency, he
believes in having his men perform
a days work, but he also believes in
paying them living wage.
He says the offices of the big rail
roads of the country are filled with
men who are pulling down big sal
aries whose main work is in passing
the ''buck."
