the accelerator closer to the floor
The car Ieaped forward, and the
speedometer fairly quivered.

whispered Bob between his clenched
teeth.
Suddenly George, who was looking
ahead around the windshield, watch

would not crash into some approach

There are a couple of policemen
on that next corner. Bob. Stop

AS the car careened down the

Movies decided that they had days
outing coming to them. Thereupon
arrangements were made to go to the

They climbed in the car. just as the
two policemen returned, dragging
after them two sullen, swearing men.
Lock them up" called Mr.. Jud-
son, as the car started. "And call
the station. Tell them to send men
to my mill-the strikers are raiding
itr'
There was a roar as the car jumped
forward, this time in a race to reach
the mill. Again Bob was called upon
to drive the car as it had never
before been driven. Back over the
same street which they had raced
along only a few minutes before, the
quiet night broken by the roar of the
motor and the shrek of the horn,
the two boys and the man raced for
the mill.
1t was only a matter of minutes
until the big headlights swung down
the steep grade that led to the gate
Of the plant. Then Mr.. Judson sud.

they gaZed down at an alarming
sight.
Gathered about the gates and WISH
BILE under the street lights were many
men. Their angry cries were carried
up the hill to the three eager
watchers, and it was apparent that
they were about to rush the gates
that were locked against them.

and go down the next street--we II
try to get in through the truck gate.

Bob was about to turn the car
when a cry from George restrained
him. Look" George was saying.

through the open window into the

of the den where her hostess. Sally

Leda bit her lip. When Sally appeared
upon the veranda looking az little
flushed and exhausted from endeavor,
Icda kept on with her magazine.
Neil is coming to dinner" Sally
remarked casually, dropping into a
porch chair and resuming her work
on Busters rompers.
Leda laid down her magazine with
hands that trembled slightly.

Sally drew long breath.

that you and he-iust as If it wasn't

from the sheath of her gown, revealed
her loveliness. If she had aided ma

genuine desire to look her best.
In the living room she found a tall,

phone.

Norton was the county seat, where
her husband was in attendance at a
session of court.
They sat down to dinner. Leda was
cool and aloof, Neil Anderson heauti-
fully impartial, obviously unimpressed
by her charms. 1t was always that
way; she could not get his conscious
ness, so what was the use Of trying?

her chicken and resolved that tomor-

Sally didn't know the worst OF 1t. for
during the two weeks vacation which
she insisted on her old school friend
spending with her. Leda had fine
clothes and many of them to display.
Most of them were marked down to
the lowest figure. and some Of them
were made over by her own clever nm
gers. She could trim hat, too, with
the best of them.
After dinner Sally stacked the
dishes until morning and went to put
Buster to bed. In the living room
below Leda heard him crying vigor'
ously as she busted herself arranging
the card table, assisted rather silently
by Neil.
Buster is SO cross tonight" Sally
said as She entered. HE refused to
go to sleep and is absolutely pie-eyed.

Never had anything tasted so good
as the coffee and bacon and eggs and
the toast that Leda added. They sat
around the kitchen table and ate and
drank and were thankful and COM
forted and familiar. Nobody thought
how anybody else looked, or cared.
An invisible tie bound them close.
"Leda's BRICK" Hal said admir-

''Leda's all right" agreed Neil
quietly. He laid his hand on Leda's
