IT. T. Gillian, one of the clty's larg-
est automobile dealers, was electeo
president of the Henderson Champef
Cf Commerce for the coming ysdr
at the annual dinner of the chamber
held Thursday evening at West End
Country Club. With him were Elected
ether officers to serve during the
wear and a board of directors.
The principal speakers of the even
ing were G. Jeter Jones, vlce-presl-
dent of the First & Merchants Ma
tional Bank of Richmond, Va, ana
president of the Richmond Chamber
of Commerce, and Malcolm Ainsworth,
of Atlanta, southern division manager
for the United States Chamber OF
Commerce Both urged the business
men to be on their toes in protecting
the interests of the business man
from excessive and burdensOme taxa-
ton and RECOMMENDATION on the part OF
government.
Other officers elected at the meet
ing included C. G. Patterson and r.
w. Bruin as vice-presidents; Fred
Allen, secretary, and M. L. Finch as
treasurer. Directors named at the
meeting were: J. w. Jenkins, j. c.
Gardner, G.. w. Knott, j. H. Bryan.
II. T. Morris, Frank B. Richards, t.
w. McCracken, S. S. Stevenson, G, O.
Seifert, A. S. Watkins, Joel T. Cheat
ham, D. C. Loughlin.
J. w. Jenkins, retiring president of
the chamber, presided and read his
report of the activities of the organi-
cation since it was formed last July.
Mr.. Jones was introduced by G. G.
Patterson and Mr.. Ainsworth by Fred
Allen, secretary.
The invocation was by Rev. I. w,
Hughes, rector of Holy Innocents
Episcopal church, and A. P. Barnes
and E. G. Glenn led the assembla2e
in singing of America and other
songs.
The new directors were presented
in nomination by w. B. Daniel, Jr,
representing a committee of five that
had made the selections. The direc-
tors then retired and elected the .ew
offers.
In his address, Mr.. Jones declared
that business still is and will con-
tinue to be major factor in the
United States, adding that pump
printing will never be a permanent
builder of jobs. He quoted Alfred p.
Sloan, Jr., chairman of the General
Motors Corporation, that business can
attain greater heights than ever be-
fore in this country if given a chance
He said 1888 had been a pretty
good year, after all,' and predicted
reasonably good business would con-
tinue into 1889. He urged the business
men to think in terms, of the year
ahead and to make their plans ac-
cordingly. He said this is an era of
changes and there will be more of
them, with added complexities in try
ing to operate business organiza-
ton. For that reason, he said, plans
should be mapped carefully and with
q long range view.
Mr.. Jones said more spending and
probably more taxes would come out
of the new Congress, meeting in jan
uary, and that business should pre-
pare for the radical changes it must
face. The Chamber of Commerce
could be vital factor to the business
man in helping along in these direc-
tons. He closed his address, studded
with many anecdotes, with an appeal
to his audience to make friends, and

Isolate words leapcd at her.

Somehow all these past hours
she had known that eventually
these would be the words she
would read. She had said them
over to herself Subconsciously,
yet now their actual printed pres
cnce hit her like Il physical blow.
And l.arry's attitude these past
few days; that was what made her
mind whirl madly. Over on the

loved. the boy she was to marry
in few months. Larry whom she
felt she knew so intimately,
whose every thought she felt she
could understand. Desperately she
tried to understand him know.
Fear. blind unreasonable fear,
must have driven him to such ac-
ton. The accident with the fright
ful feel Of bodies flung aside, the
ghaStly cold facts staring out at
him from papers. the hue and cry
nf the poplce scarch---thosc must
have ben the things that had
driven him to lie and plot so
frantically. And yet again the
calm. concise explanations had
lifted so perfectly at the time.
Her thoughts whirled again.
Automatically she entered the
office. hume up her new felt hat
with It's brilliant feather, put her
brief. iaunty jacket on the han
GER, hutfed her hair and powder
ed her nose before she realized
her hands shook and the rouge on
her checks stood out in two round
spots.
The hands of the clock over
Judge Kelly'S bench pointed to
9:&O. Officers came and went,
starting the wheels of justice
moving on another day. Priso-
ners were led into the box, and
she saw Tom flip over the file
cards on the desk to gather a
rough idea of the days cases.
She took Il drink of water,
clutched her pads and pencils
with cold hands and went to her
table.
1t was nearly an hour before
the Judge called recess and in
that time she had captured a
scmblancc of poisc. The few mo-
ments of free time found court

row." he said. "The judge wants
to go to metropolitan Hospital
this afternoon to take testimony
from an aniured man who has
been there couple Of weeks. He
is trying to clean up some of these
older cases"
"Gives this guy Kent time to
line up a lawyer, too" the ser
geant said. Hell be dumb enough
to try building up some scrcwy
defense"
Tom nodded. "Surc. We know
that. Only this time the guys got
to have a swell one. Every addi-
tional hour between the time of
the accident and his arrest made
it worse for him. The time will
take explaining. I'll be glad to
work on this. Only hope the boys
from the A. I. have something to
really give me. Looks as though
they will; this story says they

Pat couldn't trust herself to
talk to Tom that. noon. He bent
over her when the judge declared

with an honesty that made her
dlaw "a trcmulous breath.
Going to grab sandwich"
She shook her head. "Not right
now" She caught her breath at
the almost imperccptiblc way he
drew back. She hurried to make
an explanation. "If we go to the
hospital it will take up so much
time that III never get all these
notes finished. I'll try to get them
off now so | won't have the whole
thing to do when we come back
ooh, of course. Some other day
when we aren't so busy"
She looked up gratefully. "les,
I'll plan on it."
Plan? She wondered if she
would ever be able to plan again.
SO many plans had been made
these past few months only to
crash around her head in few,
brief hours. No cloud was ever to
have darkened her happiness with
Larry. Nothing was to interrupt
their arrangements for the near
future. Things were so certain,
running so smoothly. And now
She pressed her hands against
her forehead. Anything could
happen. The frightful possibilities
crowded around her. The trial,
the agony of testimony. of queS-
tions and cross Questions, the ali
bis, the fight for release, the fight
for conviction, the stories in the
papers, and then the verdict. If
guilty, weeks, even months in
prison. If not guilty-she Won
dered wcarily what would be
worse.
If not guilty in the eyes of the
law, there would always be the
knowledge in her own heart of
Larry's explanations. his remarks
these past few days with their
hidden meanings, the lies and
implications.
And yet he needed her; needed
her as he never had before. Was
not that what real love was for?

fear that made him build up this
defense. Horror and animal in
stinct, not the desire to deliber-
ately beat the law. Surely he
wouldn't have done that. She
must believe he hadn't meant to
do that.
She rode to the hospital with
the judge and Tom. The after
moons work was more routine to
them, and for that reason they
talked of other things. OF the
opening of the baseball season, of
golf scores, and the primaries.
"You'll get it for prosecutor,
my boy" the judge told Tom.

office when he wins for attorney
general. Well be sorry to lose

embarrassment. "You'll have Hiss

her into the conversation. 81 only

good secretary as she would
make"
Pat joined in the laughter,
joined in the good-naturcd jest
ing, walked between them down
the long white hospital corridor
to the ward where the patient
was ready to testify.
She had gone through such pro-
ccdurc before, yet today, it held
a new meaning. The mans waxcn
face against the white Of the pill
low, his voice weak and hcsitant
struck her anew. Two weeks in
pain on that bed had taken toll.
The story, too, was an old one.
His car sideswiped by another,
the scream of brakes, the crash
of glass, and the car lying on its
side with the driver pinned be-
meath.
In another room in the same
hospital there was child, her
head swathcd in bandages, her

as to be scarcely distinguishable,

Larry, questioned by police as to
the accident that had caused the
death of the mother, and the ser
ious injury of the child. Pat tore
her thoughts from that and con-
ccntratcd on her notes. Tom was
beside her, his voice calm and
gentle, his presence at once com.
forting and yet filled with the
power of the law.
She must call Larry. She knew
that even rs she gathered hcl
wraps about her, closed her pad
and got up to join the others FL

speak to him, learn what he hac

She must believe there was ar
