COOLIDGE DECIDES ON IRE ACM CAMPAIGN PARI Will Accept Speaking Engagement Not Too Far From Washington, By United Press PLYMOUTH, Vt.. Aug. 22.—President Coolidge has decided to take a far more active part in the campaign than was originally mapped out for him by campaign managers, it was learned here today. He will accept speaking engagements within a reasonable distance from Washington, selecting from a flood of invitations those which appear to offer the best opportunities for explaining his own news. Will Speak for Self Mr. Coolidge has recognized his opponents are making a fight on fundamental economic issues and he believes personal utterances will emphasize his stand more than when broadcast by his army of stump speakers. This he feels was demonstrated by receipt of his speech of acceptance. The President will make his first speech in Washington at the Fraternal Congress. Aug. 29. just after returning from his vacation in Vermont. Acceptance of this speaking engagement was announced Thursday night. Another speaking date he has accepted is Sept. 6 at the dedication of the statute of Lafayette in Baltimore. Conferences between the President, William Butler, chairman of the Republican national committee and C. Bascom Slemp after the return from Vermont will decide where other addresses are to he made. Press Conference A bare room over the general store here today will see the first press conference of the trip. Many matters of the moment have occurred since the President's departure from Washington which will call for an expression of executive opinion. This meeting will mark the end of the President's monastic seclusion here. He is thoroughly rested and is now devoting his time equally between official business and vacationing. He takes long walks in the mornings and spends the afternoons in attending to national matters. Will Explain Bank Plan C. B. Pattinson. a member of the Exchange Club, will explain activities of the Morris Plan Bank at a luncheon of the club at the Lincoln Friday noon. <> stop itchinglozema Penetrating.

BEGIN HERE TODAY The “Nervous Wreck," an eccentric young Easterner, is driving Sally Morgan from her fathers ranch to the station whe nthoy run out of gasoline. At the point of a gun the Wreck takes five gallons from a passing car. Later Charlie McSween, foreman of a ranch along the way, hides the Wreck's car and forces Sally to act as ranch cook. Then they discover that Mr. Underwood, the owner of the rarch, was In the car which they held up. Sheriff Bob Wells, who is Sally's fiance, is unwittingly searching the countryside for the "bandits' who held up Underwood. Young Chester Underwood finds the Wreck s car hidden In a shed on the ranch, with a wheel missing, and McSween is forced to explain the matter to his employer. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY HAT gets me,” he said, “is yy why anybody brought the and thing here at all. What’s the idea? And how did they get it here on three wheels? There ain't anything .reasonable about any part of it. There ain’t anything you can get a good start on for figurin’. Odd times I've seen things that surprised me. But this has got me laid sort of flat out.” Underwood made a restless gesture of impatience. “I'm sorry tfffe sheriff got away so early,” he said. "He might be able to make some sense out of it. It seems that nobody around my ranch knows anything at all about anything.” "I reckon we all look stupid,” confessed Charley. "I ain’t denyin’ you’ve got grounds for thinkin’ so. If I was the boss, and anything like that happened around my place I’d just naturally take a few folks apart until I got the answer. That’s the way I’d feel.” Underwood finished a calculating study .of his foreman, then waved an arm in dismissal. ‘‘We’ll talk about this again in the he said. ‘T wouldn’t like to think there has been anything worse than stupidity.” "I wouldn’t want to think so myself.” said Charley. “Good night." He went out with the lantern, passed through the dining room and pantry and entered the empty kitchen, where he sat down and began filling a pipe.

"Well, I’ve made a high-grade ass out of myself,” he mused. "I got started that way and there wasn’t anything else to do. How in blazes was I goin’ to tall him that I picked up the first stick-up gang that came along and turned ’em into a cook and dish-washer, without askin’ for references? And me believin’ that Providence sent ’em!” He tipped the chair against the wall and hooked his heels in the rungs. “I lied the only way that was beflttln’ the occasion. If I’d lied excited and brazen it wouldn’t have held good overnight. So I Jied calm and foolish. I ain’t so sure that I got by, either. I was always brought up believin’ that a lie well stuck to is as good as the truth. But I ain’t sure. It’s sort of disconcertin'.” He fell inta a long reverie, which came to an end when ha muttered earnestly: “The son of a gun!" CHAPTER XV Coaxing—or Coercion By morning, after he had snatched a few hours of sleep in the bunkhouse, Charley McSween had given much thought to the affair of the flivver and the Henry Williamses. He could not afford to lose a good cook and dish-washer. That would make more trouble with the boss than holding him up on the road. And if he let them ride away as they had come, It signified a confession that implicated him as deeply as any of the principals. The problem of keeping them on the Job was really simplified. Charley had a certain allowance of conscience; he was tolerant and goodhearted. He had admitted to himself that the conscription of a pair of honeymooners was a mean trick, even in the face of dire necessity. But now he knew something, or believed he did; and it amounted to a justification. It removed scruples, or at any rate made them slumbrous. He not only knew it, but he felt that he could profitably use it. It was neither blackmail nor duress, but merely persuasion. He oould show

them what the consequences of an attempted getaway might be. For some reason that probably went back to instinct, he had never taken the hold up of Jerome Underwood and his family with any deep feeling of shock. It had not seriously disturbed his moral sense. Now. with Henry Williams in the picture, he regarded the affair even more lightly. Besides, there was Sally to be considered. She was a mighty fine girl, he had decided almost from the first; he looked upon her as one of his own people. If she had married a bandit, It was unfortunate, of course. But had she? He had his doubts about Henry. He could not figure him accurately, or even approximately; but it was hardest of all to figure him as a bandit, according to the evidence. ill 11 " * 783 “WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?” There was one more consideration in the back of his head —the sheriff. There was nothing personal about it, in the sense of a specific grievance. He could not have explained it any better than the vei'sifier who did not like Dr. Fell. But he did not like Bob Wells, and he did not see any reason for throwing business in his way, particularly when it did not impress him as being of a really serious character. He took the earliest opportunity to interview the Wreck and Sally Morgan, which happened to be during the washing of the breakfast dishes. “The three-wheeled wonder,” said Charley, "has become known to the family.” The Wreck’s towel paused In the

middle of a polishing movement. "No, Henry; not through me." added Charley. "It was discovered as a result of unmanly curiosity on the part of the boss' son. He ham mered the padlock off the door.” “Well?" inquired the Wreck. "The news havin’ been communicated to the old man and both havin' examined the hidden party, there is a sort of notion —not positive, but leanin’ in that direction—that this particular flivver was met before.” Cally and the Wreck both looked at Charley and waited. / "The discovery bein’ put up to me," continued Charley, "I violated a considerable part of my principles by denyin' any knowledge. The reason ain’t important. The main thing is, I come out of this conversation lookin’ like one of two things—either a durned fool or a particeps criminls, which means one of the gang, that bein’ the proper learned way of puttin’ it. Accordin' to this conversation, I didn’t know any more about that flivver than if she had come droppin’ out of the sky.” He paused and studied the pair. Sally was pink in the cheeks and was biting at her under lip, a sure sign of doubt. The Wreck was inscrutable. "Well?” he repeated. “We’re gettin’ to the point," said Charley. “The point is, I reckon, I’m the only person on the ranch who can tell the sheriff of this free and independent county Just where it might pay him to head in.” “Well?” "You have a disappointin' way of shootin’ that word, Henry. I reckon we've got to decide how we’re goin’ to proceed with the discussion. Are we goin’ to show all hands on the call, or are we goin' to proveed hypothetical?” The Wreck looked at Sally, who was wrinkling her forhead into furrows. She seemed willing to leave the decision to him. “There ain’t any objection to givin’ the gang five minutes for consultation,” said Charley. “Nothing to consult about,” said the Wreck. “Meanin’?" “Meaning we don’t get you." “H’m. It looks like the case was hypothetical.” Sally stirred restlessly. She did not like beating around bushes. “Can’t we talk right out in meeting?" she asked, suddenly. "Thank you* ma’am,” said Charley. “Walt,” said the Wreck. He tossed his dish towel on the drain board and edged himself into a seat on the table, from which his legs dangled loosely.

“What are you going to do about t?” he demanded. “I figure that I’m goin' to hang on to the cook and dish-washer that was handed to me by Providence.” “Blackmail?” "I'm shocked,” said Charley. “What is it, then?” “I figure coaxin’ is a better word.” “Are you getting the idea you can keep us here as long as you damned please?” The Wreck was beginning to display nervous symptoms, and Sally gave him an anxious look. "In a way, it’s out of my hands,” said Charley, mildly. •"Suppose I was to say to you, ‘Honeymooners, climb right into flivver and help yourself.' That don’t necessarily get you anything at all. The first person that climbs into that threelegged critter and tries to drive off in it is goin’ to set the boss prancin' in pursuit. You don't seem to get the idea. She's bad medicine, that bivver. It ain’t safe to acknowledge even a passin' acquaintance. She’s tainted. Mind you, Henry, I ain't accusin' her of anything. I’m merely recitin’ the suspicions of others.” The Wreck was making an effort to be judicial. “Suppose,” he said, “that I was to tell your boss how you happened to get a cook and kitchen helper?” "That would be slnkin’ us all in the same ship,” admitted Charley. But you ain’t goin’ to tell him, on account of Mis' Williams here, who's

"Every idiot on the place,” he said, “seems to be chasing around with the idea that somebody committed a crime. Suppose it happened that there was no crime at all?” “I’m open-minded,” observed Charley. (Continued in Our Next Issue.) TOMBSTONES WRECKED Police Investigate Vandalism at Anderson Cemetery.
