Just about the finest thing That the fleeting years can bring

Is the comfort of a friendship staunch and true! Life h full of happiness. But all ether joys mean less

Than the Idndly deeds a friendly hand will do.

Wealth and fame are dearly bought If their benefits are sought

At the sacrifice of loyal, helpful friends: And the saddest man I know Is the one compelled to go

All alone to where his earthly journey ends.

'Friendship lights the darkest day. And the rough and weary way

Is made pleasant by the sunchine of a smile; Every joy brings twice the cheer When the folks we love are near,

And our friends make all our blessings more worth-while.

and greet that dear old friend of his childhood; and from the far-off Pacific coast came a telegram from three other former Almont students asking to be kindly re-membered to and by dear old George Grant, of the seventies and eighties, a teacher w h o taught by precept and example, the lat-ter of which h a s continued through a life time as an inspira-tion.

Teachers, everywhere, it is your duty and opportunity to so teach and so live, that you may be greeted in after life, and per-

need.

In brief; A widower with eight children was burned out of his home recently with a total loss of their clothing, supplies and housenold goods. The old-est child, a girl, is working o u t The father and seven children are here at the home of Bert Carr, who recently lost his wife. The former has rented some rooms for his children and has a job, but no clothing or household sup-plies.

H i e Cozy Corner believes that these wants can be supplied with-out working a hardship on any one and that this notice will be sufficient to meet the immediate needs of this family. There are four boys, 14, 12, C and 3 years of age and girls of 10, 7 and 4. For these good used shoes, stock-ings and clothing, unders and overs, are needed, besides beds, chairs, oil stove, table and dishes.

All these things may be left with Mrs. Hiram Converse on

was born, that "Old tunes are favorites;" but probably doesn't know yet why that is so; and Uncle Mar-cus can tell him.

Freddie, it is simply because old tunes are associated in our minds with precious old memor-ies of old times, old friends and of the "loved and lost"

There is nothing like an old tune to bring hack fond remem-brances, and to re-vibrate heart strings long thought dead.

PRICES REDUCED $170 u p t o

We have just been advised by the Oakland Motor Car Company that, effective August 11th, prices on all current model Pontiac JBig Sixes and Oakland Eights have been reduced • • . with reductions up to $170.

Pontiac Big Six-now 665 A big car at small car price

Oakland Eiglit-now$895 America's lowest-priced Eight

These reductions are made because in the winter the factory will present two new cars which, while changed enough to classify as new models, will remain practically unchanged in appearance, size and design.

The two neu' cars will have the same type engines used in the cars nou' offered.

These new prices give you an opportunity to own a big car at small car cost and at a great saving.

Don't miss this opportunity. At their new low prices these cars are the greatest "buys** in the automobile field today.

"We are glad to he able to make a reduct ion in the FARM-ALL tractor price at this t ime because right n o w the farmer

"Due to manufacturing economies and ani ic ipated reduc-

"Recently, by the same process, w e lowered the price on the 10-20 McCormick-Deering tractor $40, and cut the 13-30 tractor price $75."

"Now, to complete our program of reductions, w e an-nounce a $50 cut in the price of the FARMALL."

"These price reductions, made during recent months, mean

a saving to farmers of mil l ions of dollars."

"As the original al l-purpose tractor Ihe McCormick-Deer-ing FARMALL has w o n tremendous popularity. More than

100,000 FARMALLS have been built. Already this tractor has created a real revolution in farming. It is the best in^ vestment a farmer can make."

"The n e w price $825 f. o .b. Chicago, is the lowest ever placed on the FARMALL."

Yangtze I t was nlong the eastern const

of China that Dnvld first saw the Yangtze river. Ynngtse spoke to him at once and sa id :

"I 've heanl f rom f!eo, Dnvld. that you've talked to other rivers, nnd I hope that you're not so weary of river ramhllngs nnd talk but whnt I enn toll you my story, too."

"Yes," said David, with n rertnln nmount of pride, "I 've become tiulte well acqonlnted with rivers, but I should love to hear your story, Yangtze. It will he wonder fill when I get hack home to sny I've tnlked to the Yangtze river way over In China."

Yangtze smiled a jolly, happy smile.

"If I talk too much," he said, "you mny stop me, hut you enn't ptop me from flowing In n river wny. I've a river brother who Is Important around here, too, named the Yellow river or Hwang Ho. Between us we've built up a great plain and they've helped us with canals so as to enable people to get from one rice field to another. We're all mighty fond of rice. Most of the big ports, such ns Canton and Shanghai and Tientsin are near our mouths."

Dnvld really didn't mind how much Yangtze talked. H e loved hear ing the Chinese names. To him they had always heen names he hnd never expected to know fa-miliarly.

" T o be sure," Yangtze wns con-tinuing, "we enre about corn, too, and grain and silk.

"But what a good time I have I Great ships f rom the sea come sail-ing up along my river. I let them go as much a s a thousand miles

and how I do enjoy them. Beyond tha t dlstiince there are rocky gorges and rapids. Only smaller boats can go fur ther . Come along and wander with me."

So David went wandering along the Yangtze river. He saw pago-das and slender hiimboo trees. Yangtze told him that t he bamboo trees were used to help make roofs nnd walls to the houses and pipes, too, through which water could be carried. And chairs were made f rom hamboo trees, too. as well as beds and buckets, baskets and matt ing, and the f r ame work of umbrellas, lanterns nnd fnns, rnkes, combs, sticks. From the leaves raincoats were made, so t ha t Dnvld did not wonder that Yangtze admired them for their unselfishness, but he ad-mired them mostly because they were so lovely to see.

There were willows growing along the river 's bnnk. too. and t h e soli along the river wns renlly faf looking nnd quite yellow.

"Oood, rich soil," Yangtze said, "and yellow Is onr favori te and most Important color over here. I t 's what we cnll the Imperial color,"

There were Islands along the river. Now nnd ngnln there wns a mist nnd then the sun would quickly come out nnd the re were rainbows nnd the dampness of the dirt didn't get Dnvld wet nt all.

They pnssed tea fields and Yangtze sn ld :

"Sometimes they call me the river of the Fragran t Tea Fields. Isn't that a nice name?"

David agreed that It was. " T h e n . ' continued Yangtze, "Hong Kong, down along the coast, means Fra-grant Streams ns In the olden days vessels used to put in there to get frenh and sweot wnter."

Dnvld saw sheds decked with or-ange blossom wrea ths and per-fumed flowers nnd he saw silk worms being batched under blankets, spinning their silken co-coons. He snw Yangtze at t imes looking a s thick as though made of pea soup nnd Yangtze laughed when David spoke of i t .

"I even make part of the Paclflc yellow, too !"

On they passed by farms and lit-tle settlements where Map children played and where banners waved

jjl Jhe breezp or where Ijnterns shooinina a lmos t se f lhed to be mer-rily laughing.

• "Now and again," said Yangtze, "typhoons sweep In from the Yel-low sea. That's when your friend Wind gets excited. Oh, but i t gets excited."

E G G S W A N T E D ! Dear Egg Patron:

W e are n o w offering you an opportunity to sell your eggs on

a graded basis. You have probably thought of such a basis for some time, real iz ing that eggs that are large, clean, and fresh should bring more money than eggs lhat are small,

dirty or old.

W e know that eggs are c lean and fresh w h e n laid. The cond i t i oa they are in w h e n sold depends entirely on the care

g iven them.

The s ize of Ihe eggs w i l l depend a w h o l e lot on the breeding back of the laying hens . You cannot change the s ize read-

ily, but you can, however , regulate the quality of the egg and

condit ion of the shel l .

OUR PLAN IS AS FOLLOWS:

. Each lot of eggs has a s l ip with it s h o w i n g the patron's

name and a d d r e s s . . . The lot is taken into the plant and grad-

ed and the check for the eggs i s brought to you by the driver

on the next trip.

T H E EGGS WILL BE GRADED AS FOLLOWS:

PREMIUM GRADE wil l consist of eggs that we igh 2 oz. or

more each, that have sound she l l s and are c lean and strictly

fresh.

NO. 1 GRADE wil l consist of eggs that are a little loo small,

too dirty, or loo old for the premium grade.

NO. 2 GRADE wi l l consist of eggs that are very small , very

dirty or old. Checks wil l go into this grade.

LOSS w i l l consist of eggs w i th blood spots or rots.

If you have good eggs and wil l g ive this method a fair trial

w e know you wi l l be satisfied with the results.

We wil l gladly a n s w e r your questions in regard to our plan

or grades. S incerely yours,

A. M. Smith Co,

CHAPTER III.—Dark at Doru Amory meets a visiting Lngllsh-man, Splcer, there on "development business for an enterprise of which Fanshaw Is the head In an odd way Amory's mind goes back to an almost forgotten Incident of yeata before, when, on a tour of the la-lands, he blunders on a leper colony. Recalling It, he reallxet that a man on the verge of escape from the colony was Fanshaw—• Uper, and engaged to marrr Pla l a u r l e r !

CHAPTER IV—Amory tells hli friend Rnssott of his knowledge, and decides to lay the facts befors Pia's father. He Is convinced Splcer, eavesdropping, overhears the con-versation. At Thursday Island, whore Amory goes to send his message to Laurler, he sees Fanshaw with J in-ny Treacher. The girl tells Amory she had missed her boat and that Fanshaw Is an old friend. Amory hears Fanshaw word n telegram mentioning Tatatata. and reallies the secret ot the gold field Is kn^wn,

CHAPTER VI.—A storm compels him to land on Fisherman Island, usually uninhabited, but he finds two small houses ready for occu-pancy. He meets Fanshaw there Amory reveals his Identity and warns him of his determination to make the facts public. Fanshaw de-fies him, telllnR him the Island Is to be the scene of his honeymoon with Pla, now on her way to marry him. Amory resumes his voyage to Port Moresby. Fanshaw. following In a small fast motor boat, attempts to run him down. Amorv shoots and kills Fanshaw, the latter 's body-disappearing In the ocean. Amory feels the act was plain self-defense, Fanshaw's Intention being to drown him. He believes there are no wit-nesses. At Port Moresby Amory vis-Its Pla and the two seal their en-gagement.

CHAPTER VTI.—Amory, with a party of black "boys," sets out for Ta ta ta ta to file on his claims. After traveling a short distance he finds that Jinny, Inspired by Splcer anJl loving Amory. has followed them, •plcer knowing Amory will have to turn back, It being Impossible for him to carry Jinny through the bush.

CHAPTER VIII.—On the way Jinny and Amory reach an under-standing, the girl knowing of his love for Pla. He refuses her offer of companionship without marriage, •nd she Is bitter.

CHAPTER IX.—Amory and his party, leaving Jinny, set out again, and, taking advantage of Informa-tion In a notebook belonging to Grace, the miner who had found the gold fields, beat Splcer to the spot

CHAPTER X.—Splcer, with Caxon, arrives next day. nnd they seem to Amory to show little disappointment over their defeat. The two parties Join, to return to Daru for necessary mining tools. At Daru Pla Is await-ing Amory.

CHAPTER XI.—Pla, without ex-planation, urges Amory lo marry her at once. Puzzled, but of course overjoyed, he does so. Immediately a f te r the ceremony Amory Is charged with murder of Sir Richard Fanshaw. There had been a native witness to the shooting. The lovers, of course, nrn separated. Amory Is convicted of the killing, but his sentence Is the minimum, five years' Imprisonment Pla Is allowed to visit him, her constancy being the ocly bright spot In Amory's life. He •c* ds a friend, Smlthson, to Tata-tata, to work on his claims—a legal necessity, Pla learns Smlthson Is false to his trust, and herself seta t u t for Tatatata.

CHAPTER XII.—Pla finds Smith-son far from Amory's claims, and with Jinny. The man. reproached by Pla, deserts his companion and fiees.

IN T H E bottom of the river gorge It was extraordinarily still. The

thin t inkle of the Romlily river among high boulders, parched with drought, seemed only to emphaslre the absence of all other sound. F a r away among the castellated heights tha t blackened the s tars , rock wallabies may have moved with loping thump, winds st irred In wild grassc-i the stately cassowary sounded his loud drum. But here a t t he bottom of all things. In the grea t crack tha t seemed to cleave tiie very bowels of ear th , there was no Ufe, save that made for one night by the carriers, the camp flres, the moving forms and shout-ing voices of Pia 's expedition. When these died down, when sup-pe r s were over, and the hacking tomahawks s i len t ; when the na-t ives were sleeping under their flies, and the two white women had come out t o sit for a few minutes under cool sky, before they got be-neath their close mosquito nets and went to rest—then, the stillness of the deep valley came for th once more In a slow flood; wrapped ail things, seemed to climb higher and higher up the bare stone walls, above the low, exhausted river tha t w a s breathing feebly in the hea r t of It, as life, leaving the body of a man, breathes even more and more faint ly through the rising t ides of death.

I t had been a hard day fo r both women, forced to drive s t rength to t h e utmost behind the grea te r and B O f eodurlng s t rength p l t h e m e o j

"There 's places you couldn't climb."

"Well, then, one could hurry along and find another place."

"If you'd time." "Why shouldn't you have t ime?' "I've heard stories." she said pres

ently. "Likely they wasn't t rue I'm going to bed."

Pla sat a little longer, out there alone in the blackness of the con yon, looking up the river of s t a r s that ran so far above. A certain obscure Instinct of physical repul-sion kept her from the Joint sleep Ing place; made her feel, as she had secretly felt last night, that a twelve by fourteen tent was too small for her nnd for Genevieve Treacher together. But her Innate courtesy made her hide the feeling.

"Fll come presently," she called. - I t ' s so cool here."

Jinny made no answer ; she was flinging her clothes recklessly about In the tent, and Pla could hear her muttering to herself.

"Has she been drinking again?" wondered the girl on the rock. "I t ' s a terrible pity. She could be so fine . . . she might yet. But If tha t has got her her time will be too s h o r t How long," she won-dered, with a certain fearful curios-ity, "would it t ake a woman like her to reform, change enilrely, make up for it al l?"

Life hm' no answer ready to of-fer Pla Laurler . . . that n i g h t

By and by, when Jinny's m u t t e r Ings and fllnglngs had given way to silence, the other entered tiie t e n t ; sat down on the edge uf her bed, und began to unwind puttees and unlace boots. She felt that sha rp eyes were watching her from be-hind the mosquito net of the other bed, but she tried to remain, or look, unconscious of tiie f a c t

Without warning Jinny burst o u t "I hate you ; I think I'm mad."

"She has not been drinking," thought Pla.

"I dono what I'm doing It for," went on Jinny, speaking more and more rapidly. "Why should 1? Why should I hand you over to him, and fill the pockets of both of you. when 1 could knock you over one of them precipices, or I could set the carr iers on to take your head—oh. you don't know; there 's nothing any man, black or white won't do for me—except one —except—" The threatened storm burs t ; she fell Into f rant ic tears,

Pla acted by instinct now. Her repulsion, somehow, had died.

"J inny," she snld. "stop crying, dear. I t hurls you to cry like that, and It hu r t s me to hear you."

"Why should 1 stop? Why shouldn't I get them to kill you und your s e r g e a n t too? For two pins I would. You took Phil away from me."

"No,** said Pla calmly. "I did n o t Tha t wns done long before ei ther of us met him. Can' t we be generous to each other. Jinny, since we bolh cure for him? Can't we wuat the host for him? I've thought, often, that you might have been the b e s t If—you and he had met earlier."

"Say it o u t I know what you mean."

"If yon know. I needn't say. Jinny, I can't give him quite whnt you might have given. I t ' s a pus-sling wor ld ; things don't ever fit neatly as they do in books. There 's something about me tha t ' s not— not—"

"I know. It 's like them moun-tains that be cnlled nf te r you. Ever so often, on the field I'd used to look at them, nt sun-up; there they was. the Pin Lnuriers, high up and cold, with the light on them, and you'd sce them for a little while, all gold, and then, when the sun was get t ln ' warm, and they looked sort of homelike, and not so f a r away, the mists would come up like cloaks, nuns ' whi te cloaks, hldln* them, and they w o p .gone." - - .

The tears were near Pin's eyes. "Why. you're n poet." she snld, lightly, to hide her emotion. "I'm n o t ; I'm not even musical. . . . It 's what I sn ld : you hnve so much flint 1 haven't, nnd there nre filings he'll miss. But. J inny, we've got to remember flint we love him, nnd want to do the best for him, nnd he would Just hate if If we couldn't be fr iends,"

"Vou mean you'll be my friend— renl d i n k u m - n o nonsense about doln' me good nnd improvin' me nnd gett ln ' me Info 'a nice place where they'd be kind to me'?"

"I wnnf to be your fr iend just ns one girl fo nnofher. If 1 mny,"

"If you m a y ! " said Jinny, and flung her nrms about the other 's neck.

Pia's kiss, given without reserve, was still on her lips, when Jinny, without warning, sprung away, leaped to her feet, listened a mo-ment, and then. In f r an t i c hurry, began to put on her clothes

"What ' s the ma t t e r?" asked Pia. "Mat ter? Hark at f h a f l " "1 hear nothing." "Nothing, h—11 1 oa t ' s rnln. A sudden memory leaped Into

Pia 's mind— " ' W h a t happens If rnln comes?" •"Him say. al together we die. '" She did not quite u n d e r s t a n d -

yet. But she rnn out of the t e n t and under the few fa in t drops t ha t were beginning to fail, looked up and down the gorge. Camp had been made on a slope of barren sand and gravel at t he bottom of a rock well. There was driftwood there, and plenty of wafer, nnd when they hnd halted. Just before dark. It had been Impossible to see any bet ter place behind them or ahead, all the gorge, for miles, was steep-to. with a bottom almost level, that made good going, in spite of boulders and moraines of loose stone. The thread of wa te r that here represented the llotnllly, had not seemed—then—of any Im-portance.

But already that thread w a s mnking Its Import f e l t ; already a small, growing voice was audible among the boulders ; tinkle and tripping of wafer, that came from somewhere fa r away, Simoi had hea rd ; already he was up, out of his t e n t and running round among the other tent-flies with a stick in one hand and a lantern In the oth-er. "Get up. you 's." they heard him shou t ; he wielded his stick with a powerful arm, and many a carrier woke, shrieking, under his blows. He fumbled them ou t ; be did not waste time on Pla and Jin-ny, seeing them nlready up and dressed. Lanterns were hurriedly lit all over camp. The rain was not yet heavy, but If was Increasing In the slow steady fashion that pres-ages a downpour.

" I ^ a v e m altogether you load, get down along creek blankly quick." shouted the s e r g e a n t "We go back."

"What Is It?" asked Pla, as he came running up to her t e n t

"Rain," answered the s e r g e a n t "He ful lem up this place quick time. You get down along creek,

you two-fellow Slnabada. yon run like hell."

"Where to?" demanded Pla, coolly.

"I show you. You go firs', Ughtem torch." He was away again, driv-ing the boys like cattle. Some of them wanted to collect their l i t t le belongings, their betel-bags, the i r pipes, thei r blankets. . . . Slmol cracked them over the head, over the legs, hustled them without mercy. "You want to die here, you blanky black swine?" he shouted. "Get on."

The Ta ta ta ta boy hnd already vanished Into the darkness behind the camp. He needed no one to tell him what was coming. Through a raffle of rocks, Pla and J inny hurried, backward along the way by which they had traveled ear l ier In the day.

"He knows some place we can get up. It must be pretty near ," gasped Jinny, a s they pressed f o r ward. Running was Impossible, walking not easy. One had to bal-ance and scramble. Pla nodded, saving her breath. In the minds of both was the thought—"It may not be n«ar enough." Slmol, ac-cording to his lights had acted wisely; he had pitched camp In the one place where there was drif t -wood for flres and standing ground for t e n t s ; he had left behind him a way out, In case of necessity. . . . Doubtless the proper place for ascending t o the heights above was on ahead, too far to reach In the dark. Doubtless one could have got back to the other way out. In the f ace of any ordinary r a l n h n r s t But—wns this ordinary?

fci the minds of both women there wns a fea r that It was noth-ing of the kind. Where they were, the rain was now heavy, hissing on the stones, thrashing the brnit shoul-ders of the two gir ls ; t he thread of wafe r In the river bed was ris-ing so tha t they had to walk knee-deep In many places. But tha t was not a l l ; that wns by no means all. Behind them, chasing, threatening, thundering, like some colossal "dragon of the prime," In search of prey came something Infinitely worse. They could hear It more dis-tinctly with every minute. If was not like a dragon now; It was like a railway t ra in running a w a y ; like th ree t ra ins ; ten trains, roaring through one tunnel all together. And they were like people trapped In a tunnel, who couldn't find the refuges in the walls.

The darkness and ihe rain were terrible. The torch was a mockery. "To he drowned In the da rk!" thought Pla. sliding over boulders, splashing In and out of pools lhat deepened with every minute. Then —"Oh. sweetheart , will you ever knows* Then, as she struggled through r a t e r nearlng her w a i s t staggering against the clawing cur-rent, fel t t ha t the end of the fight was very near , thoughts tha t she has never told to any; broken and breathless prayers, that remain b e tween Pla and her God.

And still. In the roaring dark-ness, In the rising water, t he tiny ray of fhe torch showed no sign of Sergeant Slmol.

A gust of wind came suddenly, sweeping the canyon; she did not need J inny 's clutching hand. Jinny's half-heard s h o u t to know that It was the outr ider of the flood . t he end.

They flung themselves against the merciless rock wall. For the last t ime, Pia 's torch swept up the dark. She saw—tliey both snw—a rope dangling down the wall. Through Ihe shout of the coming flood pierced Sergeant Rimol's bull-voice f rom up above—"Tnkem ropel '

He hnd found some all but Im-possible place of ascent, torn a li-ana from one of the trees that clung to the slope above the rocky wall, and was flinging It down to the "two-fellow Sinabnda."

The wall sloped upward. The rope, seen In the stream of torch-l igh t very long. In a s jng l j

Punctures and blowouts are bother* some and most people fear them— but NOW, because of the patented Double Cord Breaker, Firestone has practically eliminated them.

Because Firestone Tires hold all world records on road and track for speed, safety and endurance, many people think they are high priced— but just check these low p r i c e s -then compare quality—you will be dollars and miles ahead*

A Few Days Ago— A few days ago we talked to a man who is easily worth $50,000. We asked him how he managed to accumulate so much money.

"I simply got the savings habit," he said. (<I got started in a small way to saving my money and I got so much fun out of it that the habit stuck. Then I invested what I saved and it grew. And that 's all there is to i t ."

Just about all the big fortunes grew that same way. Right here in Lowell you can pick out the successful men who itarted their fortunes by saving their money.

A plan for systematically saving your money will help you wonderfully.
