Nwimper mil, If a person can scowl at himself, Hawley Miller was doing Just that, as his rattling, bounc ing, swaying gasoline chariot snorted along the rutty road. The scowl was occasioned by the fact that Hawley was the roud commissioner, into whose care and keeping hud been delivered this particular stretch of undesirable highway, ami by the uddit.iouul facts that he realized he must do something in the way of Improvement and that he wondered how he was going to find the meu to do It. His crew of highway workers was kept busy overtime patching various parts of the country's turnpike system and the funds alloted for the purpose would be totally inudequate to pay out additional wages. So Hawley scowled at himself. As he approached the Parker home. marking the beginning of Oak Dale, Hawley found his machine caught in a lr of deep ruts. He tried to steer the wheels out of the depressions, but the latter were too deep, so he sat back with a sigh and allowed the chariot to find its own way. This relaxation was responsible for the accldeut that occurred. There must have been a break in the ruts that held the wheels, for the ear suddenly flounced out of the road and headed with a rush for a mammoth oak tree on the Parker lawn. Before Hawley could retard the gas throttle the machine crashed into the tree, and the eoncusslon hurled the road commissioner to the ground. Somebody appeared at the front door of the residence, and Hawley's be of blue. fuddled vision caught "Are you hurt?" inquired a gentle voice oh, such a gentle voice He sat up, dazed, and found himself Into the eyes of a bewitching staring came home from Belliston Ralph of her exquisite The miss.

I'll see that it's done somehow, though." As he took his departure he could not help being grateful because of the ruts. Without them he might never have met this bewitching niece of the county treasurer. However, he certainly would have to tlx the roud, tor he Just knew lie, would have to travel over It a greut ueul, because he was going to have a lot of business Ueul ings with Mr. Parker. Within a week a gang of roud work ers begun operations on the highway In front of the I'arker home. It wus necessary for the road commissioner to be there a greut deal of the time, und so It happened that he and the treasurer's niece became very friendly. He learned thuf. her home was in Chicago, but on account of her health she hud been sent to live In the country. Before long the friendship developed Into something else, and one night the road commissioner made a proposal of ;re seated in a marrluge. They swing on the I'arker porch. She took one of his hands. "Hawley," she said softly, "I do love you, but you must do big things be fore I can marry you You must make a name for yourself; you must get out of the rut you're in here. Go to the city and make good. Then usk me again. But get out of the rut. Just as your car left It one day re cently." So Hawley resigned his road Job and went to the city. He was filled with ambition, strengthened by Mr, Parker's niece, and he made good In business. He knew farming, and he knew crops, and his operations hud to do with deals la wheat, is which fortunes are made and lost over night, He kept up a correspondence with Mr. Parker's niece, but not once did he see her. If she came to the city to visit her people she did not Inform him of her whereabouts. Two years after his departure Haw ley returned to the country. He had a new car now, a big, powerful one. and It skimmed along the roads over which he once hud supervision. It skimmed over one of these, highways to the Parker residence and came to a stop In the shade of a huge oak tree. Hawley got out and knocked on the door. The girl appeared. . .

Its measure runs outside and . beyond dollars and cents. The hurried call for the doctor, the nurse, for aid of any nature, may cost a few cents, but the value of the call may b incalculable. It is difficult to think of any of the neces- life that costs so little sities of present-da- y in proportion to its actual value as does Telephone Service. In every department of life business, domestic or social Telephone Service has become an indispensable factor. Telephone Service can be as effective and as adequate as the public demands only when the public and the Telephone Company are in harmony and united in cooperative effort. With adequate moral and financial support, the Telephone Company, through efficient and economical management, is enabled to render service satisfactory to the public. .
