VI seven pillows behind her
Il 4 and a novel in her hand,
~.H confident Of spending a
long, delightful afternoon in the way
she liked best, when her friend, Mabel
Baker, bounced in upon her.
What are you doing there?'
Mabel demanded.
The suddenness of the intrusion,
TO say nothing of the interruption to
\ the varying fortunes of a delectable
Neroine. made Milly jump agonizingly.
She stared at Mabel, who was wear
ing all her best things and had a rose
pinned upon her blouse.
MY goodness she exclaimed.
''You--you are so all-of-a-sudoen,
Nab"
But what are you doing here"'
Mabel continued to demand. have
YOU forgotten that you're due at the
sewing bee at Mrs. keator's this AFTER
noon at 3, and that we're going to the
Iust-a-Bite tearoom afterward Tor
supper"
Il had forgotten" Milly's express
sion was shocked and deeply contrite.
Tt completely slipped by mind. You
see, I've had a perfect hustle of g.
week with Toms folks here, and all!
All this afternoon | was so tired that
| thought of nothing but getting q
good rest and"
Mabel turned to go,
We'll. I'll do what [ can with Mrs.
keator. but YOU needn't be surprised
if she is good and angry. And those
little Carsons are simply bowling for
underwear; the bee is to provide them
with clothes, you know. should think,
Milly. that you could at least remem-
ber that they have no mother and
that their father can't do everything.
This town must look after the Car
sons, and you, being a representative
woman ought to do your share"
"Oh, | will. L will" pleaded Milly.
Tears filed her eyes. Don't scold
me, Nab, dear. Make it right with
Mrs. keator somehow, please. I'll do
something nice for the Carsons-Ill
get some things at the store and send
them-and | promise never to forget
again"
Mabel laughed, She was a good
natured young woman and besides,
nobody could be really angry for long
with anybody so good and sweet as
little Milly Hull.
Your promises are like pie crust
when it comes to affairs of memory"
she said We'll, III hurry on-I'm
late now--and tell Mrs. keator what
ever l can that will appease her"
She vanished and Milly sank back
upon her pillows again. But the Joy
was taken out OF her. the flavor was
gone from her novel
Those poor kiddies.' she thought.
"One would think my heart was as
hard as a stone, and ii is only that l
have such a perfectly rampant for
getter. But I'll tag my memory. To
morrow-tomorrow I'll go into Sher-
hurne and buy them every consoler l
can find. I'll spend my whole weeks
allowance on them. That surely ought
to keep my conscience from pricking
me-"
Next morning Milly took the 1880
train to Sherburne. Her husband
had obligingIy agreed to get his lunch
con and dinner at the restaurant-"I
shall step into the diner for coffee and
rolls" Milly explained. ''Traveling
always takes away my appetite. You
needn't meet me. Go to your club
If you want to. The train may be
late. and anyway III take the cab"

that a wolf, which last week stray

Auto Tourists Spend
100000 in Arizona
During Month Of July

PHOENIX Oscar Bartlett,
State Entomologist, under whose
direction the five inspection sta
tions at which motor vehicles en-
tering Arizona are inspected and
registered reports 11,557 vehicles
entering Arizona during the month
of July.
The greater part of these vehicles
were automobiles bearing 81 pas
sengers as the average load, a total
of 42,460 visitors brought. into Ari-
zona by automobiles during July.
The Automobile Club of Arizona
has carefully investigated the tour
ist travel and gives six days as the
average length of time spent in Ar
izona by the average party OF mo-
tor tourists.
Manager Wilbur Treadwell states
that ten dollars per day expenses
for each party of motorists is low
estimate. This shows that motor
tourist business brought nearly
100000 into the state during July.
Manager Treadwel1 further stat
ed that while the motor tourist
business flowing into Arizona from
other states was big thing it was
small in comparison with the intra-
state motor traffic constantly NOV
ing over the highways of Arizona.
There is no way of securing any
thing like accurate figures on the
intra-state motor traffic, but all
who have studied the matter agree
that it is the biggest business
builder in the state today.
"To realize this fact" Mr.. Tread
we'll says, zone only has to stand
on one of the boulevard streets a
short time any evening and count
the cars as they fit by and guess
at cost of oil, gas and other things
that go with a pleasure ride. Think
of the money spent for cold drinks
at resorts, and think that this bus
mess is strictly cash and is divided
among hundreds of small places OF
! business. This condition exists
over the entire state and justifies
the enormous expenditures Arizona
has made for good roads"
