You don’t go into a com-, titive market, but sell to a cen-| ti lepot, from where the bulk | is distributed.” | Constance nodded. It sounded} jvery simple. You merely ex-| }changed your beef cattle for| cows, sold their milk in gallon] cans, instead.of on the hoof .. .| and the e@ws*were still on the| ranch, instead of having to be re- placed. | “I wonder,” she mused, “how | much the Taylors were counting | § on investing in the turn-over.” “Twenty thousand,” answered the judge, promptly, then looked at his watch. “Hmmn, this talking of beef has certainly given me an appetite. Let’s get us a steak.” Twilight was blurring the square when they left the office building. The narrow street where Dolores’ friends lived, and where Dolores was happily en- gaged in gossiping, was dull gray. But when they came out on} the waterfront, Constance saw that the sun had left splotches of yellow on the incoming fog, and below it the olive-gree waters of the bay heaved rest- lessly. The cafe was low-ceilinged, filled with roughly clad men, a| few women and a thick curtain of smoke. | Judge Franck introduced Con- stance to everyone they er tered as “Michael Mahoney's spring.” Cattlemen, dairy men, seamen, loggers and railroad men bowed to Constance, and then the Judge came to a table where sat a large woman who looked as though she | had stepped out of an English} hunting print. “Her someone who can tell you all about dairying,” the Judge said Tr vey, culent and frag listened, lo: The woman v cation va: looki mu.

Pounding the offerings of Clar- ence “Cigarette Willie” Gates when hits meant runs and taking advantage of errors of and the lead a several omission commission, Station players of 10 to 4 at tne end of, the third amassed a inning. Then into the pox went Nor- man Artman to abruptly end the NavStas’ scoring spree and blank them the rest of the way. Young Artman held the opposition to one hit in the six frames he worked on the mound and _ just two players got the ball into the outfield, both easy high fly outs. Only 19 men faced the former star shortstop of the champion Citizen ten of several years ago. Meanwhile, the Pipe-Fitters kept pecking away at the offer- ings of Lino Castro until the seventh when a four-run put the game on ice. The Station players scored the first run of the game on singles by Allshouse and Delaney. Pep- pers came right back to knot the count on two walks, a single by Rosam and a long fly to left by Torres. A home run by Baker, a pair of singles and two free passes to first gave the Civilian Employes five runs and a commanding lead in the second frame. They added four more in the third on four one-base blows and three bases on balls. That ended their scor- ing. Plumbers scored three times in. the second frames on two walks, a single and a triple by Ingraham: Another trio crossed home plate in the fifth as Artman and Torres tripled, Lastres singled and the opposition miscued once. A lone runs was recorded in the sixth on three errors. The four mark- ers that clinched the game in the seventh came in on a triple by McCarthy, a double by Villareal, singles by Ingraham and Higgs and walks to Gates and Artman The final run was notched in the eighth as McCarthy, first man up again, tripled and scored on Lastres’ center to center. Centerfielder McCarthy led the hitters with a pair of two-bag Allshouse and Lastres pro- in £ers. duced two singles each tries. Delaney, Castro, and Ingraham poled two five.
