II was as harmless a letter as

There was not a single word in

Here, read it yourself" she said.
'It's from Stan Wayburn."
But Dick didn't read it. He
didn't open it. He hardly touched
it,. just long enough to toss it
down on the lakewood table at the
end Of the davenport.
His face was white under the
light of the tall lamp that stood
there.
"So?" he questioned. my wife

was grim. He sat down in his arm

up the book he was reading. Then
he laid it down upon his knees.
Gloria" he said abruptly, tell
me the truth for once in your life.
....Are you or are you not in love
with Wayburn?"
II don't Know" Gloria answered.
She had asked herself that ques-
ton a thousand times. And she
never answered it the same way
twice.
That's nonsense Dick went on
impatiently. you must know how
you feel about him.. -. Tell me
this: you don't care about me any
more do you?"
tn LORIA looked across the room
at him with the calm eyes Of
III the Sphinx, herself. But his
question had set thoughts to buzzing
like bees in her head.
How much did she care about
Dick?
Would she miss him If he went
away from her as she missed Stanley

She wondered.
She felt Dick as something trust
worthy, honest and good beyond
measure. Good all the way through.
. That was Dick.
But did she love him?
II don't know, Dick" Gloria said
at last.
She sat up straight, pulling her
self together like a woman who had
something to say and meant to say
it now!
I'll try to tell you how I feel
about you, if can, Dick" she said.
"To begin with, hate homework. l
hate having to run this house for
you. 1t makes me sick and tired.

WILL GROW THEIR OWN
N [ By M:

For several years Harvey Firestone
and Henry Ford have been investi-
eating rubber growing, being concern
ed about their source of supply as
England becomes more arbitrary and
exorbitant in her demands, having
control of most of the crude rubber
product of the world. The situation is
that while IS per cent OF the rubber
production is controlled by foreign in
terests IS per cent of all the rubber
used is consumed in the United States
and of course largely in the automo-
bile or tire industry.
Henry Ford now owns 5000 acres
of Everglade land that when drained
will be adapted to rubber growing. He
has also an experimental farm and so
has Edison in the adjoining section
that Is producing good specimens.
There is also a Federal experiment
farm there which shows as promising
production as any section in the world
What it means to Ford and Firestone
is small compared to what rubber
growing on large scale might mean
to the state of Florida, once the Ev-
crglades be drained. 1t would be as
good as a gold mine.
