Peggy’s Party Is Invited to Stay Overnight at the Inn

By ZOE BECKLEY (Continued) Bobby nearly spoiled Peggy's triumph. In response to Olive’s professional dancing, kissing her hands seemed the proper and easy thing to do in an embarrassing situation. In Peggy’s case if he did not respond to her strenuous salute he would look foolish. Yet —cleanhearted boy that he was—Bobby’s feelings were mixed —and not too pleasantly. In her own environment in the fresh mood of schoolday fooling Peg-

with a girl of the stage, she was a different and confusing proposition. So Bobby's response was a bungling and laughing affair, vastly different from the spontaneous, gallant kiss he had given Olive. Olive could well have rested on her laurels. But she herself was young enough to send a sting of resentment through her. Her successful thrust at Bobby in actually kissing him, where Olive only invited in play, decidedly piqued her. "Well, children," she said, rising with an end-to-the party manner, ‘‘it’s time all nice little schoolgirls were in bed. Tomorrow’s examination day, you know.” Olive’s proposal, practically puncturing the carouse, raised conflicting feelings. Winnie eagerly jumped in support of it. Ted Harker, faithful in his suppo-t of Winnie, seconded the motion. Bobby, wavering between several allegiances. hesitated, seeing how the mood would assert itself. Peggy, taken off her guard, white-hot at Olive’s "nice little schoolgirls,” said nothing for the moment. The host of Mikado Inn alone protested. “AVhy, say, young folk,” said he, wagging his head, “your party’s just commenced. No one counts the hours when there’s fun a-going. My cellar’s not empty by a good deal.” The host looked around for some one to take his part. Seeing Peggy not in the least eager for adjournment, he appealed to her: “Won’t you get them to stay? The fun is just beginning.” “I can only ask them,” said Peggy, coldly. “But they can’t resist your asking, little lady.” The host was beaming enthusiasm. "If you’re on my side, we win, that’s all. If it grows a bit late, and any one’s tired, there axe nice sleeping quarters at the inn. It’s sweet out here in the early dawn, I can tell you! What do you say, Miss Peggy, Dean?” (To Be Continued) (Copyright, 1922, NEA Service.)

MINE OPERATION STEP NEAR GOAL Would .Have Decided Effect on Cleveland Conference, McCardle Declares. “If a substantial quantity of coal is mined under State protection in Clay County, today, a step toward the settlement of difficulties between miners and operators will have been accomplished,” John W. McCardle, chairman of the State fuel emergency committee said today. The announcement of such an accomplishment would have a decided effect on the conferees in Cleveland, McCardle said. Troops of the Indiana National Guard that have been in training in Camp Knox, Ky., not summoned for guard duty in the coal fields, have returned to their home posts. Batteries A and C and the service battery of the 139th regiment have returned to Indianapolis. The regimental headquarters battery of Mt. Vernon, the battalion battery of Princeton, Battery C of Noblesville and the medical detachment of Portland have been mustered out of service. The returning 150th, composed of Battery A of Kokomo, B of Elwood. C of Lafayette, Dos Bloomington, E of Madison, F of Evansville, headquarters company of the First battalion of Angola, headquarters company of the Second battalion of Spencer, Third battery of Columbus, medical detachment of Seymour and headquarters battery and service battery of Muncie, have also been mustered out of service. Auto Hits Pole An automobile driven by Harry Griffin, 2157 Ashland Ave., collided with a telephone pole In front of 1152 Massachusetts Ave. The car was owned by Mrs. Helen Ryan of the same address. The machine was hazily damaged.

TBI T ABOR and power represent inr 80 to percent of the total cost of producing farm products. It iHS. P ort i° n of the cost is reduced mM by the use of motor-driven mall chinery which enables each man to cu hivate more acres and to cultivate each acre more cheaply. Ir P*! f Ft! Showing figures, made on “ authority of the International Harm . vester Company prove the correctness statement. 1921 COSTS—DISCING Double Discing (8-ft. disc) with horses —15 miles travel per day, costs 85c per acre. Double Discing (8-ft. disc) with 10-20 tractor —20 miles travel per day costs 66c f * per acre. (A saving 0f223%) 1921 COSTS—DRILLING Drilling with horses day; costs 53c per acre. Drilling with 10-20 tractor —25 miles travel per day; costs 26c per acre. {A saving of 51%) 1921 COSTS-HARVESTING 4 horses with an 8-ft. grain binder can harvest an average of 15 acres a day at 65c an acre. 1 kerosene tractor with 2 8-ft. binders can harvest an average of 40 acres a day at 50c an acre. (A saving oj 23%). The increasing use of motor-driven machinery on the farm indicates that the practical farmer has come to realize that the use of such equipment is profitable. The Standard Oil Company (Indiana) in its endeavor to furnish a complete cycle of service is delivering its products to the farmer under the same conditions as for similar deliveries in the town. Such service is possible only because of the complete system of distribution which has been developed throughout the 11 Middle Western States served by this Company. Only a great enterprise, permanently organized, adequately financed, and inspired by a high sense of its social responsibilities could guarantee the farmer, and all those who consume farm products, that all essential needs for petroleum products will be cared for.

‘Bumming’ Auto Rides Is Sport for Modern Huckleberry Finns

Young Indianapolis has discovered anew way to see the world, less dangerous and far more comfortable than hopping freight cars. Automobile tramping is the newest vacation sport, according to one of the “tramps" who slid into a reserved seat beside the driver of a car speeding out YVashingtoi St. He was possibly fourteen, red headed and characterized by the frankness of his age and sex. With him were three others about his age, but they permitted “Red” to do all the talking. “Where do you want to go?” inquired the driver. “Oh, just anywhere you say,” responded the passenger. “We’ll Just go as far with you as you go and if that ain’t far enough we’ll take another lift. Maybe we'll

Pennsylvania St. A watch was also missing. The thief used a key to enter the flat.
