BEGINNING OF
HER PERFECT DAY
BY JANE GORDON

"a. 1874, western NEWSPAPER Union


20. 1894. Western Newspaper Union.J
HUDSON FAIRBURN lived in the
southern home Of his ancestors. II
was a pretentious residence surround
ed by beautiful grounds. He remained
devoted to his arrogant mother and
proud sister through stipulation Of
his fathers wIll-that Judson, remain
ing unmarried as long as his mother
and frail sister should need his care
would in that circumstance only In
hertz the estate. But inherited, lux
urious indulgence caused the good
natured Judson to be apparently sub
missive to the stipulation required.
Judson Fairburn, even now In later
years, was a lovable man. Richard
Warning In his young manhood made
the elder man his close companion.
Now, Richard was going to q far
mountainous country. on long coveted
engineering commission.
So, on a sunshiny morning, Richard
found himself travelling up Greentop
toward the white house, a vision just
above. In this wondrous land, the
young mans blood raced In anticipa-
ton OF pleasing adventure. A sound
in the pine needles behind his resting
retreat caused him to turn; a girl
stood there, blossoming like some
mountain flower out OF the solitude.
Mr.. WarringT" questioned the un-
expected one. Granny Laurel sent
me on to meet you. Mr.. Fairburn had
written US Of your coming. You have
a horse, I see"
Il hired him." Richard explained,
farther down the village" He paused,
asked Of the fair guide-"And your
Mr.. Fairburn mentioned only Mrs.
Laurel and Sallie."
The girl motioned to the seat Of pine
needles which Richard had vacated.

asked impulSively; there Is much /

"GloryI" Richard looked at the
glowing face, the shining eyes-"An
appropriate NAME" he said. and
smiled.
The young woman answered gravely.

named-it Is my history. I call Mrs.
Laurel Granny and Sallie Aunt be-
cause-because have to pretend rel
atives. lam nameless." Her fear
less gaze met his plying, wondering
one.

night before, on one OF his mountain
visits. When Granny carried me to
him. that he might look into my baby
face. he said: You must keep her and
care for her, and / win be glad TO send
money that she may have schooling,
ana the things that home girls have
Mr. Fafrburn had, Granny told me,
lost one he loved. and this thought
came to him, as q means OF comfort.
He kept his word; and when he would
come, as / grew to girlhood, we would
be great chums, riding, walking to-
gether these very paths. AS soon as
/ was old enough to teach In the tiny
school / attended, I wrote and told
him to discontinue sending money. He
was very kind, and I write TO him
stiIl to show that do not forget that
long kindness. SO. can you think how
glad I am to welcome Mr.. Fairbanks
friend? We hope to make your stay
here pleasant"
Richards stay was pleasant. Never
had he known such happiness. To go
out into the sweet morning air with
Glory: to watch with her the stars
shining above the hills from the porch
OF the white house. To be with Glory
that was not only happiness, but q
great 10y. So, as the time II his de-
parture drew near, Richard asked
Glory to marry him; and simply, her
trustful eyes upon his, Glory prom
ised.
The mountain mission minister per-
formed the marriage ceremony In
Granny Laurel's little home. and after
ward Richard took his bride on a
brief wedding journey to the higher
mountain. When they returned Gran
ny Laurel met them; her kind eyes
showing traces Of tears. Gently she
broke the news. Judson Fairburn had
died of heart trouble. It was his old
mother who had written tremblingly
to the address her son had given.
Judson had confessed when word Of
Glory's marriage came to him, that he
was Glory's father. Years ago he, too,
had known a wedding ceremony In
Granny Laurel's little home for
Glory's mother was Granny's daughter,
indeed. He had intended to make
confession to his own mother just as
the summons came calling him to the
mountain, to see his young wife pass
from the world in the sunrise, which
left the baby Glory opening her soft
eyes.
Through the years which followed
Judson had remained silent, hoping
perhaps, to gain his Inheritance, to
pass on to his loved daughter. But
Judson's mother outlived him. And
now, In the kinder vision Of old age,
she begged of her granddaughter to
come on to this, her own true inheri-
lance. Granny Laurel kissed Glory's
forehead. you win 60 with yotA hus-
band" she said. ito claim your own,
while I viii stay here, that you may
come back often to the peace and
glory Of the mountain. Dear" she
added tenderly. "that first sunrise was
but the beginning Of this. your perfect
day"

EARL COOPER IS
NOW FORECAST TO
WIN 1924 HONORS.
Goes to Top Through the
Accident Which Took
Murphy

Earl Cooper s smashing victory in
the Fresno 150-mile road race, in
the track record time of 1:25 :13,
has given him Il chance to win the
A.AA. National Championship for
1924.
incidentally, it was Cooper's first
race and victory since his marriage
on September 81 to Mrs. Jane n.
Bailey, the goldcn-haired beauty
from Troy, n. y, whose tears at
his misfortune at Indianapolis on
July 4, when u flat tire cost him
first place after he had headed the
field for 425 miles, attracted the
famous drivers attention and led to
the altar. a
Cooper's chance at the national
championship with the Studebaker
Special comes through the most un-
fortunate accident which cost the
life of universally loved Jimmy
Murphy at Syracuse, n. Y. At the
time of his death, Murphy had won
! ,595 points.
Fresno, it has just been announc
ed by Chairman Richard Kenner-
dell of the contest board of the
A. A. A., gave Cooper 800 points,
bringing his total score up to $50,
which is $50 ahead of his nearest
competitor, Conner, whose 80 points
won at Fresno brought his score
up to $50.
Scores of the leaders at Fresno,
as announced by Chairman Kcnner.
dell, are: Cooper 300; Hill 100; Mil.
ton 90; Conner so; McDonough 80.
: Standings of the leaders now
are:
Murphy, ,595; Cooper, $50; Com
er, $50; Hill, 574; Corum, $40; Feng
Ter 563; Milton, 46l Shafer, $50;
Hartz, 35G.
Two more races are to be driven
before the 1924 season is closed
and the championship is awarded.
On October 25, at the new speed
way at Charlotte, N. c., Cooper
will face 90 starters in the elimina-
tion contests. This probably will
be his hardest race. since Indiana
polls. With II victory at Charlotte,
the national championship will be
i'll his grasp.
The final race at Los Angeles No
vember q, is looked upon as well
within his reach since it will be
driven under conditions at which
Cooper is an acknowledged master.

MANY BATTERIES
Die OF THIRST,
SAYS LOCAL MAN

Back in the adventurous days Of
40, many gold seeker died in his
covered wagon from thirst.
History tells MS that .;he trails
could be followed by the bones Of
animals that had died from thirst
bon the westward journey.
Today, these traits are national
highways, paved and wide, where
speeding automobiles have taken tho
place Of the plodding Of teams and
the tourist repl&ced the pioneer.
Yet there are many deaths from
thirst along these old historic trails,
says Earl Kendall of the Kendall
Brothers, local Willard storage lat
terry dealers. "These are battery
deaths, however, - he adds. ''lf cv-
cry storage battery that dies from
thirst were discarded on the road,
these highways would soon resemble
the trails of the forty-niners, with
battery cases, jars, plates and scpa-
rators strewn along the way in
place of bones.
"Permi;;ing a battery to go thirs-
W Is lhe quickest way 10 XIII H.
says Kendall. "Thc water evapor-
ates. The generator on the car that
charges ii produces heat in cells.
The quick discharge of starting the
motor heats the battery. The neat
of summer keeps the battery at II
high temperature while the car IS
running. All these will make tina
plates buckle and destroy their life
unless the battery is filled to the
proper level with water regularly, -
he says.
Overfilling is also bad. 1t will
cause the acid to overflow and
eat away the case and any part OF
the car it touches he warns. Any
owner can service his battery If he
cares to do so, if he will follow the
simple directions that any battery
man will give him 1t is better to
have it done by reliable repair men,
however, as they are quick to de-
tect hidden trouble, and it is less
expensive in the long run.
