of Miss Lancaster's tearoom,"
Patty went on. "You remember
the place. II you drew a straight
line from Miss .Lancaster's you'd
bump into this old brick place
with a stone stoop- and grillwork.
There are window boxes with
flowers in them. You can't miss"
Miss Lancaster's tearoom ap-
pesred unchanged, as Jills tan
roadster tore past. Inside, she
knew, the same busy clatter was
going on. But there was q patio
like place at the rear with tagged
flooring, q white trellis covered
with artificial vines, and Mattresses
in crisp white and green moving
about.
Jill drove two blocks south and
turned. The mental lire she was
drawing Topped over the tops Of
buildings to settle down on the
stone stoop Of an old red brick
building Of the 1890 type. There
was an iron grill and flowers
bloomed feebly in weatherworn
green window boxes.
GUIDED by her mental line, Jill
parked and got out.
She stepped inside the dark hall.
The door to the room on the left
was open, and voices came
through. Two girls were wander
ing around the room, examining
paintinss-plsced end to end on
long tables against the wall.
Paintings did things to Jill. Left
her curiously stirred by memory.
She walked slowly toward the
stairway that spiraled upward.
A voice with a siggle in 1t came
through the open door. "Have you
one Of the Blue Danube?"

No Gear Shifting

Fay Johnson living Moffit plowed his field
recently and when the job done commented that the
first time he had managed to do the work without shifting
gears his tractor
The is that johnson powng the contour,
thus his tractor always pulling the level The uphill
anddowndae system which had forced shifting in the
past abandoned
Experts contend that this system Of lage will hold mois
where it falls both rain and snow and thus to do
the most good not away into streams and gules.
The system which johnson will follow provides for reduc
ing the Of cultivated and planting
The hope is that this will give him great yield from fewer
he used to from his whole farm Under his
men with the Soil Conservation service the cultivated
will be reduced from 405 214 and the rotation will be

In the past johnson has planted much wheat Under the
arrangement he will rotate his with wheat
and barley in order Only 80 will be crops

and the rest in close-growing crops.

and tumbled brown hair. His back
was turned, but Jill knew there
were gray eyes that grew dark and
intent at times, and a not-so-
ordinary nose. Yes, Jill knew it;
this was Alan Jehry.
An elderly lady was looking at

copyrisht 1887. b. The saltisers ss.

THE ANTI.HOOvER COMPLEX
One Of the real reasons this coun-
try Is In its present messy state is be-
cause In the last few years there has
existed no strong, virile, coherent OPP
position party, with an Ineligible po-
litical philosophy and force enough to
slow down the reckless excuses Of an
administration with an unparalleled
mob appeal.
Within the administration itself
actually within the White House circle
there can be found men, justly ap-
prehensive about conditions and with
cause to doubt both the soundness Of
our one-man government and the
wisdom of the man, who freely admit
1t Hence, the proposal to hold Re-
publican convention next spring for
the purpose of equipping that party
with set Of sound and understand
able principles ought to be welcomed
by all citizens who feel that contin-
uance OF unrestrained New Dealism is
bound to end In general disaster.
Apparently the national committee,
which meets next month, will issue
the call for this convention, which
makes it harder to reconcile with rea-
son the transparent efforts OF certain
Republican politicians to sabotage 1t
iE advance. With only sixteen mem
bers in the senate and eighty-eight in
the house, lacking both clearly de-
fined direction and basic policy, it
Is impossible to imagine party more
completely flattened. Yet it polled
l7,000,0 900 votes last year and would
have polled many millions more had
its platform been less absurd and its
appeal more sincere. In this situation
