Carlot shipments Of produce are
little lighter now than IN early
October. and about 0ne-seventh less
IN weekly volume than they were a
year ago. Decreases this season are
mainly in fruits. Eastern apples
ana western grapes are light for the
time OF year. Early new crop vege-
tables are still in small volume, but
increasing.
Truck crop condition i'm early Oc-
tober was generally not far from
average, but was irregular in Florida
and Texas, and excellent in CalifOr-
MIA. Local supplies of fresh vege-
tables are being gradually displayed
by carlOts from distant producing
sections.
The large eastern markets con-
tinue fairly active. Receipts of
homegrown produce are becoming
more limited in variety. Prices
have been fairly steady since the
middle of the month. Potato and
apple markets are firm. Western
lettuce sells at low prices. Grape
markets tend slightly upward. Onion
and cabbage markets continue weak.

began shipping during the winter
months.
Sweet potatoes also were fairly
steady in price at S1.50 to $1.60 per
barrel at Eastern Shore shipping
points. Some of the stock was going
to the canneries. The barrel pack
sells at $3.50 to $225 in eastern

Pennsylvania Railroad officials
division engineer. J. +. Vandling anC
master carpenter. W. r. Taggert
drew a crowd of curious OnlOOkers
to the railroad station last Friday
morning while they demonstrated
the use of their new aut6-railer or
track car. The car is built on the
type of large truck with heavy
duty rubber tire wheels and it has
an extra set of steel flange wheels
which are raised or lowered from
or to the rails permitting it to run
on the railroad right of way or on
tie State highway II doesn't seem
to he much of a trick to place it on
the rails at main street crossings
which are usually larger then cOun-
ty road crossings. The officials de-
voted their time getting it on and
on the rail at small crossing.
Mr.. Vandling said that it would be
placed in service at once and would
be used chiefly for road inspections
and to transport men and materials
from the master carpenters depart
nlent and the supervisor telegraph
and signals to job under con
structiOn where the railroad is a
great distance from the highway.
The autO-railer will be operated
under rules of the rails, clearing
block stations and running on train
orders just the same as regular
scheduled trains. Other motor cars
of the railroad are permitted ID run
20 miles per hour. Special regula-
tions will probably he issued to al
low this new car greater speed. /
The headquarters for the car will be /
here. Employees of the different de- 7.
paTtments capable of reading sig
mails and train orders will be in J
structed on its operation.

"All right. You can do that.

Der, you'll be hearing from me. I"
Toby went into the building and
stepped into an elevator. Since
she was here, she decided, she
might as we'll go up and let
Charles do her hair. On such a
hot afternoon there would be no
difficulty about an appointment.
And she really hadn't wanted to
see that movie. anyhow.
Sitting with the waves careful
ly pressed into her hair, waiting
for them to dry, Toby made up
her mind about one thing. She
would NOT stay home, waiting
Nor Tim Jameson to telephone.
She had done that once; she would
never do it again. Tins part in
her life had come to a finish and
lit was going TO stay that way.
Probably he wouldn't call. Wheth-
er he did or not, she would not
be home.
For two days she invented ex-
cuses to keep her away from the
apartment. She went on shopping
trips. She had a call from the
Models League and spent several
hours-thc hottest part Of Il ter
Ilifically hot day-bundled up in
one fur coat after another, posing
before a camera. The coats would
not appear in shops until August.
but they had to be photographed
in June.

not particularly like. Bill Brandt

she wanted to see, but the night
was so warm neither Of then. en-
joycd the performance.
Finally, Toys sense Of humor
came 10 her rescue. 1t was lidjcu-
lous to stay away from home be-
cause Of Tim, and Suddenly sh"
saw that. Probably he hadn't
called, or, if nc had, and had re
ceivcd no answer, here was little
| Likelihood that he would call again.
Besides, she could always find
an excuse for not seeing him.
With this decision made. Poby
slipped back into the old routine.
She was at home one morning,
inspecting IL pair of soilcd white
sandals and trying to decide
whether or not they were worth
dyeing, when the bell from the
entrance downstairs rang sharply.
1t must be the pOstman with
letter from Harriet. One letter
had arrived several days ago---a
letter that described "Aunt Abb
gail" Dinwiddie, Aunt Abisalls
cooking, her comfortable, old
fashioned home and the little
town Of Plainsville, all with equal
enthusiasm.
Toby, anxious for more news,
hurried down stairs. She opened
the door Of the tiny vestibule--
and faced Tim Jameson.
"IIello, Gorgeous" ne SAID,

place I'd say you'd need to go"
Once the compliment would
have thrilled her. Now Toby knew
how easily Tim said such things
and how little they meant.
"Oh, there's always the up
keep" she told him lightly.
Tim turned to her appraisingly,
Il don't think you need to worry
about the original job or the up
keep, either. AS it happens, Pm
headed in the same direction my
self. Mind if | walk along with
YOU"
"Of course not"
They went on in silence for
several moments. Suddenly Tim
said, ooh, by the way, Gorgeous,
I've noticed you've taken to deco

ing them very nicely, too. That

"Thanks. That was one Of
Duryea's pictures. | liked it my
self"
ut was a beauty" Tim said
enthusiastically. "And you can
take that more than one way"
Oh, yes, hattery came easily to
him. Why hadn't she understood
long before that words spoken so
easily must be as lightly meant?
He talked on-of the weather,
the wilted appearance Of the city,
the boat races the Saturday be-
fore, a new car that passed them
until Toby halted before door

This is where leave you. IL S

She had one hand on the door,
and would have entered but ne
stopped her. "Wait a minute" he
said. "How about hunting up a
cool roof this evening, doing bit
of dancing, maybe? Don't you
think it's time we did something
like that? l do"
She shook her head, smiling.
"Solry, Tim, but | couldn't. I'm

"Not very wei"

"No, that's not it .......
Why was she denying it, since
it was true? She didn't have a

either. She was saying she had be-

she would not let Tim Jameson
coax her into agreeing to see him

to reach you by phone. Decided
to come myself. Run upstairs and
get your bonnet. You and | are
going on picnic"
If he had said anything else ex-
cept a picnic, Toby might not
have weakened. But a picnic,
blue sky overhead, green. fields,
trees reaching out generous, shady
branches, perhaps stream and
the sound of rushing water! How
had he known that picnic would
be irresistible? ..
"Td love it," Toby said, raising
shining eyes.
"rhe cars waiting and the
lunch is packed. Hurry up and
get that bonnet on"
Already Toby was OH her way
upstairs. She called over her
shoulder, "I'll hurry"
She put on a dress OF yellow
linen and tied back her hair with
a yellow scarf. She slipped on
low, fat-hccled shoes, caught up
sweater, and was back.
The roadster at the curb was

After lunch they fingered lazlly
for ii while, then set off to "cx-

blue water. Tim stretched out,

Afterward Toby thought she
managed very well. If she hest
tated for an instant, if her voice
was not quite as level as it should
have been, there was no sign of
disconcertion in her face as she
said, "Why, hello, Tim - what a
surprise to see you!

he told her. 81 thought you must
be out of town. You seem to have
stopped answering telephone calls;
at least you don't answer when l

He would say that, of course.
Toby didn't believe that Tim had
telcphoned. Probably he didn't eX-
pect her to believe it. But, being
Tim, he would say it, nevertheless.
