Mr.. HUGHES AND HIS WORD or

Il used TO be thought that Mr
Hughes vas just the sort OF man Et1e
wished 10 be taken very seriously
That was a mistake.
On October II, 1924 Mr. Hughes
signed public statement. togethe:
with thirty other prouznent RepubIi-
cans, In which he said:
We have reached the confusion
that the true course TO bring America
into an effective league TO preserve
peace is by frankly calling up

changes IN the proposed agreement

But that isn't the whole OF II. After

wing OF the party went before the
voters is completely ignored. The
promise TO revise the covenant until
it was acceptable is forgotten, the
fact that the unrevised covenant was

This seems to US to touch Mr.
Hughes personal honor very closely

the sighs and sobs of Evelyn, Pollyop
heard a shrill squatter call. She rose

With the superstition Of her kind,
Polly was overcome by a great fear.

promised commission but he would be
betraying the confidence OF Mr.. Up
ton.
He might tell her nothlng-simply
make excuses for leaving Fairfield.
and return home to tell Mr. Upton
that he had failed. TIE hardest part
Of that was that he didn't want to
leave Susan. In spite Of himself he
had become very much fascinated by
this dlgnified young woman. And she
had not seemed to spurn his advances.
From the first she had seemed to pre-.
fer his society to that Of any of the
other men In her set.
John Howe pondered these things
for an hour or more, and then before
retiring he wrote the letter to Mr.
Thad Upton that decided the fate Of
the Truax homestead and incidentally
his own He had eliminated Susan
Truax, he said. He was sure he could
persuade her not to buy. Likewise he
had found a purchaser All that re-
mained now was for events to shape
themselves. He would be back In his
office he hoped, within ten days.
After that John Howe set out TO
WOO Susan Truax. Two or three after
moons they spent riding together, for
Susan was keen horsewoman, and
then there was country walk where
John proposed and was accepted.
Susan did not question his judgment
then when he advised her not to buy
the Truax property, though she seemed
keenly disappointed at having to let
It slip from her fingers.
Immediately following that Susan
signed the proper papers rellnqulshlng
her kinsman, Mr. Upton, from her
claim as purchaser, whereupon Mr..
Thad Upton promptly sent word to
John Howe that he might proceed with
the sale, retaining all profit he made
beyond the $4,000. Two days later
the $4,000 was in the hands Of Mr..
Upton, so apparently Mr.. Howe had
found an immediate purchaser.
Exactly on the day he had said, he
was In his office and Mr.. Thad Upton
beamingly called upon him.
"As real estate man you can't be
beat" he said. shaking hands. "I
knew that property was worth more
than $4,000, but didn't suppose there
was any one waiting around to buy 1t
as quick as that. You're a Jim Dandy.
Say, who'd you sell 1t to-I noticed the
check was your own"
"oh, the purchaser" said John
Howe. "Why, bought It myself-paid
$4,000 10 myself for II, keeping the
$4,000 for commission"
