For if there is one thing that could conceivably conceiv-ably restore national prohibition, it is the deadly mixture of alcohol and gasoline. Anyone who thinks that the American people will put up with this menace indefinitely is crazy. Traffic is dangerous danger-ous enough even when all hands are stone sober. Add to it those half wits who don't see anything wrong in getting behind be-hind the wheel after they have had a few drinks, and you create an intolerable situation. , Continue that situation long enough and you will find a new sentiment for prohibition, just as surely as night follows day. f u - -i -i Here's an example. The other day some 30 young members mem-bers of a church organization hired a wagon and a team of horses and went out for an old-fashioned "hay ride" along a country highway. The wagon wa,s lighted adequately with lanterns, fore and aft. The night was clear. Up from behind came an automobile. There was plenty of room to pass, but the driver apparently never saw the wagon. He smashed right into it, knocking it into a ditch, where it overturned and pinned the young people beneath splintered wreckage. One lad was killed and 14 others were severely hurt. The driver of the a,uto admitted that he had had "two beers and two highballs" before starting out to drive. Police said bluntly that he was drunk. Now if you would go around among the survivors of that accident, and among their families, you might find a surprising amount of sentiment in favor of a restoration of prohibition. You could talk yourself blue in the face about the evils of bootlegging, about rum-runners and gangsters and the failure of enforcement, and all the rest. It is very doubtful that they would listen to you. They would feel that anything would be better than the present situation and you could hardly blame them. The traffic situation as a whole is bad enough, heaven knows, without being made more grievous by alcohol. Since the race contains a certain percentage of fools, we probably always will have drivers who cut in, pass on curves, and do the other things that cause accidents. But alcohol is a com-iplication com-iplication of oufown addition. - - - - r unless we oo someining drunks from behind steering J 1 J? see a new uemanu ior nreriiuiuon a aemana mat win amaze i A everyone who assumed that the question was settled for good when the eighteenth amendment was repealed. Those Autumn Sniffles Poets may concoct a rhyme or two about the leaves and their transformation from green to Brown with a burst of ' 'tis autumn" but the fact still remains that this is the time of the year when sniffles are in vogue. This is the season for those pesky common colds. And, warns physicians, those pesky common colds are serious. In order to avoid cold, dress eat drink sleep and LIVE sensibly. Get at least eight hours sleep in a well ventilated ven-tilated room every night. Eat plain foo and get some exercise exer-cise in the fresh air. Dress warmlv, but don't "bundle" yourself. your-self.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER VII JT was indeed a closely-knit town, neither large nor small, into which John Courtney brought Helena and to her alarm she discovered dis-covered that the Henderson Department De-partment Store was easily the most impressive structure there She was to Jearn that it was impressive im-pressive not simply in size. True, it was not as large as Helvig's, where Helena had worked, but it was easily the biggest organization organiza-tion of its kind in its half of the state. "You can see from what IVe said," Helena wrote her mother, "that I've had my hands full and that I don't know yet just what to do. I'd thought of having hav-ing you here with me, but the truth is I don't know whether IH stay. Today John Courtney telephoned and said he was coming com-ing over. I have to meet Peter's uncle, and a man from the bank. n She had just sealed and stamped this letter when the bell of her apartment sounded. "It must be Courtney," Helena thought with a sigh. Aloud, she said, "Come in, please." Turning from the little writing desk she confronted, not John Courtney, but Leah Frazier. "Good morning, Miss Frazier," Helena faltered. "I'm awfully glad you called." "This," answered Leah Frazier, "isn't precisely a call, Miss Der-rik."; Der-rik."; She smiled coldly. "It is Helena Derrik, isn't tt? I mean. So Jnach Bright Moments IN GREAT LIVES During the civil war, the secre tary of the interior was trying to aid Edwin Stanton, then secretary of war, in finding capable and de pendable men to serve as pay masters in the army. He named one young man in particiular. t'How old is he?" Stanton asked ''"About 21," he was told, "of good family and excellent character." "My dear sir," was the reply, "I would n t appoint the Angel Gab riel a paymaster if he were only 21." FINED FOR SPEEDING Clarence E. Cowan, Payson pleaded guilty to a charge of speeding and was fined $10 by City Judge Don R. Ellertson Saturday Sat-urday morning. State Patrolman Mark Cornaby, who brought the charge, stated that Mr. Cowan was driving 65 miles an hour on the Salem-Spanish Fork road. for you wouldn't quite call yourself Mrs. Peter Henderson, would you?" Helena ignored the thrust. "Won't you sit down?" "Thank you, no. I can state my business very briefly. I understand under-stand that you're going to meet Roger Barnes today?" "Yes, I am." "My advice is that you relinquish relin-quish all claim to Peter's estate. No doubt Mr. Barnes will be willing will-ing to make some compensation" compensa-tion" "Apparently you've discussed the matter with him?" "And why not? My people were among the founders of this town. I was a friend ol Peter's and of his family. Obviously, you have neither the background nor education to even assist in the management of the store." TT ELENA smiled. "Perhaps not "the background, if that's necessary. neces-sary. But I've worked in stores for quite a while. I think that might be a very good education for this job." "You couldn't!" Leah returned without control. "Everyone knows you tricked Peter into marriage just so you might fall into this. I suppose you thought you played into great luck when he had the accident. I suppose " "That's enough, Miss Frazier!" Helena cried, facing her. "If everyone ev-eryone knows a story like that it's only because you've spread it. Now will you please leave?" The Frazier girl colored, held fast to her composure. ,fYes, gladly. glad-ly. But in fairness, 111 warn you. If you attempt to stay in this town you'll wreck Peter's store in six months. IU help you to do it" "You'll help? . . ." said Helena, not understanding. Leah Frazier smiled. "Yes. And so will all my friends. We'll boycott Henderson's Department Store, and we have accounts there now running into plenty of money. You don't know how fast a thing like that can spread in a town such as this." She turned and left the apartment, apart-ment, slamming the door insolently. inso-lently. ' When Courtney arrived he found Helena wrapped in a cold rage that had not subsided from the moment Leah . Frazier had gone. "The Frazier girl was just here," Helena told him. "She wants me to turn the store over to Barnes. And she says if I don't shell boycott boy-cott it" The lawyer pursed his lips. "I was afraid of something like that And . there's another hurdle, too, L've discovered Barnes has been kalking to the -employes.'

"They can all have the store if they want it But I don't like the idea of being run out of town. Won't anybody be with us?" "It's hard to say. I think we can count on one person, and he's important to us. That's John Lassiter." "Who's John Lassiter?" "He's old Aaron Lass iter's son. Aaron's president of the biggest bank here the one we do business busi-ness with but he's turned things over to John mostly." "Why . . . why should he be with us?" Courtney shook his head. "I don't know, but he is. He told me he thought you ought to have every consideration. And I don't think he approves of the wide credit Barnes allows in the store." Helena looked at the attorney. "I wonder," she said slowly, "who the people are who are getting long-time credit at the store? r Maybe it's our friends who would boycott. If that's true, we can stand that kind of a boycott" pOURTNEY broke into a wide grin. "You know, I believe you like a xd fight" Within 20 minutes they were in Roger Barnes' office on' the mezzanine mezza-nine floor of the store. Barnes was a cadaverous-looking man in his early 50s, startlingly unlike his late nephew. He made no secret of his resentment toward Helena. They had talked only a few moments mo-ments when John Lassiter arrived. The banker's son was a pleasant well set-up young man, whose ready smile did not conceal the fact that he knew his way about "I've been showing ah Mrs. Henderson the financial statement," state-ment," Roger Barnes said. "But of course I doubt that it means very much to her." "Oh, yes," said Helena sweetly. "We used to draw up financial statements as part of our high school course." She turned to Lassiter. "I may be wrong, but it seems to me that in comparison compari-son with the total annual volume, we carry a tremendous amount on the hooks. There's a notation here that says some are 90-day. accounts. ac-counts. Several of the larger charge accounts run six months or a year. Isht that rather unusual?" un-usual?" Roger Barnes spluttered. "Those are people whose good will we need." "Just so that I can get some idea . . . Helens turned back to Barnes. "Is Miss Frazier one of those?
