They have the capacity of conquering everything but them- selves; there they need help.

Heading for the next fight.” She shook her head decidedly. ‘I don't like a man who has to be coaxed into acting like a sensible person.” “You're not coaxing him—you're making him see it is worth while to win a f ttle even as you see it is worth while to win a battle of your own.” “Battle?” Allaire said, surprised. Me? Why, Doctor Ross, what battle have |, pray?” The Doctor“smiled and put his glasses back on his nose. “Your pride.

Unless,” and her smile was lovely, “you enjoy it.” HE had luncheon with the Doctor and then left to,“‘prow! around,” as she expressed ityand he directed her to several places he thought she might find interesting. Th statue of Captain Rodes Wil lett arrested her attention and she read the inscription with deep in terest. Captain Willett had dashed into a fight too at the first whistle; that characteristic seemed a key- stone of the Willett family. Captain Rodes Willett must have been flattered to the depths of his bronze heart as a blonde girl lounged behind the big wheel of an expensive roadster and bestowed upon him a long inspecting glance. She drove down long country roads between avenues of heavily budded apple irees; these lanes would be a glory soon. She stopped on the crest of a hill to survey the rolling beauty of a countryside that breathed the green serenity of. field ang» fgrest glade and fay withig they shadows of the distant bills. * It was late in the afternoon when! she drew up before her last port o! call—an old white house with six white columns rising to the second story cornice. The old place had more of the tradition and memory of bygone days than thirty Westlands with their gleaming drives and long sprawling wings for hordes of guests, invited and uninvited, who dropped in any time of the day or night for a drink, a meal, or a guest chamber. The minister had said she might be interested in seeing the house long deserted by the Willetts. He was right. She was interested, so interested that she stayed in town overnight so she could arrange with the bank for the keys and go through the house the next day. And that night Allaire West, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Courtney Rayburne West of New York and Washington, stayed at an old inn called Carteret House, which boast- ed feather beds, fried chicken din- | ners, and an open fireplace wide enough to roast an ox. HE next morning, in company | with an elderly bank official, she drove up the avenue of locust trees and unlocked the great front door. It took actual nerve for her to enter the house. She tried to tell herself that anybody was privileged to look over the place who so chose, but she felt like an interloper treading the soll when Allaire arrived. vacaut' dirty floors of a dying fam- fly's home. er guide found that she wished to make her own inspection and waited patiently while she went through a living room bereft of light of day by reason of boarded win- dows; but she saw that the white wainscotted walls of the room had been built to catch the sua. Other factors interested her—the beautiful unsupported spiral stair- case that rose to the roof, the wide main hall, the deep fireplaces and carved mantels, the massive doors with huge brass locks. But over all lay dust and silence and darkness. And suddenly she found herself tiptoeing. She felt that she had no right here—it was like Spying on a person. But, oh, Terry, what a birthright! She dropped her obliging guide off at his bank, thanked him, and drove to the home of Doctor Ross. The old man was delighted to see her. “I came to say good-bye,” she told him. 'm going back to Washing: ton.” “I'm glad you didn’t forget me,” he said, smiling. “You are a real friend of mine from now on. Come to see me again—and bring Terry with you.” She smiled at him. “Verily, you are a powerful ally, Doctor Ross,” she sighed. “An ally of you both,” he cor rected. “But you're taking an awful lot for granted,” she protested, and once again that flush crept intos her cheeks. “Even if 1 am in love with Terry Willett—1 don’t know that he —he's in love with me.” He looked at her with a curious penetrating intensity for such old eyes. “I think he is. He must be. He couldn't help himself.” She shook her head. “You're absolutely incorrigible,” she declared, “but somehow, 1 think I'm going to kiss you.” And she did, her warm young mouth brushing his wrinkled cheek, and then she waved and departed. rple #H@, stood on the verandah and watched her go.

One guy claimed the wind was 40 miles an hour; another said the greens were so fast that he laid down and went to sleep while waiting for the ball to drop; a couple more said they were i qualifying for the tournament and still cthers admitted they just}! i couldn’t — play. Confidentially, that last reason can apply to most all of us. However: Mr. Eddie Strunk went along for nine holes or so, mostly in a | fog, until Willie Kemp reminded | Eddie that he had to shoot some good scores if he expected to win! the tournament. The first round Mumpsy did in 46 but’ after Wil. lie’s suggestion, Hurricane Eduie , knocks out a 38. ‘It seems’ that Melvin Russell, who was and is} usually partner to Eddie,cannot | | get over the fact that he has such j a large handicap score and there {fore got another 103.

But watch Bill on a calm day! 1 Mr. Berlin Aloysius Sawyer has been taking that long rest for a reason. After much persuasion, Grandpa Bob Stowers got Berlin | } to play a mateh and Daddy pro-} ceeded to show Grandpa he was a! better man by playing J.

Which} result has made Berlin very gar-/ rulous indeed but on the other hand caused Grandpa to keep a} little more pensive and of a pon- dering disposition.

The com- pany has made sound and sub- stantial progress ever since incep- tion. During this comparatively brief but disturbed period in the eco-} nomic history of the United) States, Universal Credit Company} has financed the purchase of new Ford cars and used ears sold by) Ford dealers exclusively to thej motor-buying public of America; in the amount of more than one and a half billion dollars, serving! a total of ;more than 2,600,000; Ford customers. Such, in brief, is the history of one of the na-} tion’s greatest financial service, corporations. ss N The&d Yigures are indicative of; the substantial contribution beiag, made by Universal Credit Com-! pany to improve conditions.

UCC again follows with the) lowest and best plans it has ever) offered. Under the new UCC Plans, after the usual low down payment, the Ford buyer can pur- chase his Ford car anywhere in the country on instalments of only $25.00 a month. The cost of this extension of credit is only % of 1% per month on the original unpaid balance and insurance. Convenient UCC charts show these finance ‘charges which are computed by multiply- ing the unpaid balance plus in- surance by %% per month (6% for 12 months—which ‘s not sim- ple interest but a multiplier for computation). H Where the $25.00 per month plan is not used, and the Ford buyer wishes to vary the terms of his transaction, the cost is figured | by multiplying the unpaid bal-| ance plus insurance by a multi- plier determined at the rate of} %% per month for the total) -number of months the transaction is to run. The insurance provided in the!
