Chapter II.
A OHM e r.

Bud did not come around for two
days after that amazing discovery of
ours and when he did, he said nothing
about his loss.
Violet. indeed, was rather clever
about it. She wanted to find out, yet
she was afraid to say that she knew
he had lost money. So she remarked
casually:
How about that oil stock that you
said looked so good to you?"
"Oh! Well, it didn't look so good
afterwards"
That was an answer that might be
interpreted several ways. vi made
another attempt.
Then you didn't"
She got no further, for Bud inter
rupted:
Let's all go to movie, shall we?
It's too late for show, but I'd like to
do something"
The girl tactfully let the question
drop. But l knew-and she knew
that Bud had lost heavily.

whole thing. This was no sort of be-
ginning for happy marriage.
"For the first and most impor-
tant thing in marriage, is that the
two shall trust each other abso-
lutely. in every way. This is as
important as love, for love cannot
survive where there is no trust.
And vi felt this too, though she
would not say 500, even to me.

come to the city. After all, it was my
salvation. not hers. Alone in the
country. Violet might have forgotten
Bud and cared for someone else in
time-for she was very young-but
here in the city, seeing him almost ev-

contrary.

criticism finds expression in an over
ture presented to The Presbyterian

for an investigation Of all . those

taries who underWrite the Inter

if they did so illegally. If it is found
that their action was illegal, tins oV-
erture asks tina; these secretaries be
not further trusted with the admin

LONGER retained in their official po-
sitions. because Of their effect on the
confidence Of the Presbyterian
church.
The 133rG Conference of the Pres
byterian General Assembly opened
this morning.
Another overture affecting Presby-
terian board secretaries calls upon
General Assembly to instruct such
secretaries and other paid officials or

the board any honorariums they
may receive for preaching or other
outside work.

Convention OF Truck Men.

Detroit, Mich, June 2-Questions OF
interest to the trucking industry Will
be discussed during the "aE-water
convention Of the National Team and
Motor Truck Owners association to be
held on Lake Huron June l3 to 1t.
The 500 delegates from all parts or
the country who are expected to at
tend the convention will leave here
ON a lake steamer June 13, cruise to
Mackinac Island. and return TO De-
troit by water on the final day OF the
meeting. The delegates will not leave
the skip during the cruise all busi-
ness sessions being held on board
This is said to be the first time N
the history Of the Great Lakes that a
national convention has been held on
shipboard.
The trnCk horse will have its inn
ing during the convention, according
F. L. Henk Of Detroit, secretary OF
the organization. The advisability OF
using the horse for trucking purposes
when short hauls in cities are desired
will be pointed out it is said. Accord
ing TO Mr.. Henk, truck owners In all
parts of the country are returning to
horses for short hauls. having found
them more economical than motor
trucks. The motor trucks are found
more advantageous for hauls between
cities and for long hauls within mu-
inequalities, Mr.. Henk pointed out.
Trucking men In Chicago and other
cities are depending more each year
upon horses for short hauls accord :
ing to figures obtained by the secre-
tary.
legislation and means of expanding
the truck business generally also wall
be discussed during the convention.
The freight deck of the Steamer NO
ronic, which will be used 10! the
cruise, will be fitted up as a convention
hall for use Of the delegates.

dent Of the national. organization.

will be served with an execution. We
know at this time or several large
farmers, WHO are being threatened
With suits. and If this court was IN
session, they would simply be forced
out Of business, thci: hands dis
charged, and untold suffering would
be brought about, when the people
are normally solvent but just cannot
realize cash now And another fea-
turc Of this would be that it could
not go very far before it would hit
the banks and merchants OF Sumter;
then what? Those who feel like vot-
ing foc this court had better find out
about that before. than To wish they
had later, but then as we said before.
experience has lot OF pupils. and we
predict will have q sadder. il not wiser
lot. before this court would operate
three months.
But il may be that some did not
pay as much taxes this past year as
they would like TO have paid. Of
course We do not like 10 debar any
one from the privilege OF paying just
as much taxes as he fishes to even
though it may increase others taxes.
so we vii! not blame any one at all
for voting for this court. if they feel
that they have not been taxed suf-
ficiently
