Jack stops for a visit and remains to wed the adorable Jill. Life is kind to Jack and his bride, the expiration of three years finding them parents to a pair of two boys and a girl. Now comes the Great Event. Stuart and Tony Justin purchase a tax title to property in the hills, in- corporating an old abandoned silver mine, This mine proves up valuable in | tungsten-bearing ore, and Pat Sweeney, father of- Mary, or *Mike,” as she is called, buys a quarter in- terest in the tax title for $100,000. Jack and Tony engage to carry the ore to Pittsburgh aboard the glass company trucks. On the finish of this job they are to receive the last installment of their money, $50,000 apiece. Some fear is entertained that hi-jackers may hold up a truck in the belief that it carries moon- shine. As a protection, Pat Sweeney, accompanied by Big Bill Guernsey, goes over the route in advance of each trip. Previous to the start of the trucking, Pat Sweeney takes a “party” to Pittsburgh for a week- end entertainment. The *“party” in- cludes the Stuarts, Jack and Jill; Peter and Tony Justin, Pat and Mike and Father Ryan, who, as Tony ex- presses it, “horns in” at the last mo- ment. Father Ryan's presence, how. ever, as it turns out in the finish, is | not without very excellent results.

Several hours | |later, in the privacy of the room | | which he shared with Father Pat, he mentioned the incident to the priest. “Mary Sweeney is th’ product of | an environment that eeldom fails to breed selfishness—lack of mother- !love and discipline, and too much money during th' years of adoles- ience,” said Father Pat, rather sadly. | “H'm, I suppose 60,” agreed Peter, | ‘whale thoughts just then were cir- | fculating around a subject nearer | | home. “But did you ever notice, | | Father, that nowadays Little gasps of | admiration, then small acknowledg- ments of approval, and at length a | whirling, epectacular finale that brought a tremendous burst of ap- | use. . 1 Instantaneously, almost, the two | were the center of interest, sur- rounded by an enthusiastic crowd with eager querics being fired at them from all seides. The maitre d'hotel pushed his way through the mob to where Jill stood looking rather scared and terribly excited. And then it came—as it invariably does, when least expected—the ques- tion from the house management. Would they consider an offer? The wily manager had sized up Jill's out- fit and felt certain the two would jump at the offer of a nominal sal- ary—say, $100 a week! He drew Tony aside and made his proposi- tion.
