THE COLBORNE EXPRESS. COLBORNE, ONT., THURSDAY, JUNE 14, 1928.

Such ... m-------- T"u "SALADA"- flavour--such fragrance, No--at you, Nell. Two minutes out of my five are left. I'm going to have you to myself that long!" "What are you going to do?" "Take you out of this place before they tag me with a club." "Take me where?" "Outside. We're going to sit on the moonlit side; of a tree, and I'm going to make love to you, Nell, as you were never made love to before." Do you think I've gone mad? I l't go a step with you!" Hush, Nell. I know that you trust Not a bit." ;Look me in the eye when you say She flushed gloriously and her eye avered under his glance. "You're a dear, Nell. But I want I to have you where it's quiet to tell | you just how dear you are. When w get to the end of the hall, out through I the door we go together. You urJ~ "Yes-- no! Of course I won't go."

Buck Daniels, presumably her father, in an out-of-the-way ranch house. She complains to him that she never is allowed to go where other girls go. One night she slips from her bed and rides to a schoolhouse several miles distant, where a dance is*in progress. Riding home, singing, she is surprised to hear a man's voice call to her in the thickets. The man is Harry Gloster. She hides in the shadi will not. let him approach her. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY how much action we can crowd into that time--" 'And after that--" 'I'm going away. Never see yoi again!" "You're not like other people," sh< said almost wistfully. "Not a bit. Here's John again Dance faster. Longer steps! We'r< going to dodge him if you help--" And help she did. She became as light as that whirling leaf he had thought of before. It seemed that his mere volition was guiding her. "The devil!" muttered Harry Gloster. "Someone tagged me then. But we're going on--" j "Oh, there'll be trouble about it. It's 11 the rule!" say ! "I'll go. I don't care what they| Nor I what they do." They reached the end of the hall, swung deftly through the outer line of the dancers, and were suddenly through the door, leaving a gasp of wonder behind them. Before them was the moonlight world.

But Harry Gloster only laughed. "I've broken the ice for you, then. Here comes a couple to get you. Shall . I let them have you?" And at this, .finally, she looked up. They were great brown eyes, indeed, and filled with an almost too perfect "Can you help it?" she asked.

John E. Hammell, president and anaging director of the company, which will operate 17 aeroplanes, equipped with skiis for rough landing on snow and ice and platoons for summer work on the northern laakes, recently went to New York to purchase additional aircraft equipment. Hammell, although 51 years old and many times a millionaire,' is Iearing to fly, and expects to have his pilot' license within a few months. He has been prospecting since 1905, and his activities have covered the Canadi North from Northern Quebec to N thern Manitoba. Accordng to Mr. Hammell, 1 prospectors of the N.A.M.E. wilt be taken into new areas by fast c planes in a few hours instead of eral weeks. They will be kept | supplied with food, tools and e : sives, and contact established with , skilled engineers and geologists who will be flown to the properties later in large transport plants. The small .planes are to be the "prospectors' I taxi-cab in the north" and the bigger planes will solve the problem of large transportation of men in numbers, supplies in bulk and machinery of considerable capacity. "There are inaccessible regions never before touched by the foot of the white man that are as rich in mineral deposits as the famous trails blazed to California and the far reaches of the Yukon," said Mr. Hammell. "The only way to prospect in these regions, carrying enough supplies to sustain the exploration party, I is by aeroplanes. The days of hardship, starvation and death which followed the opening of other famous gold coasts, will be a thing of the Gum-Dipped Tires Save You Money Gum-Dipping is an exclusive Firestone process. It insulates and impregnates every fibre of every cord with rubber and prevents the cords from chafing &g ast each other. In ordinary tires these cords are uninsulated. In flexing they chafe against each other, causing internal heat and friction which softens the rubber, causing blowouts and tire fail- These better tires cost you no more, yet they give thousands of extra miles.

Again, he was by no means sure how far he could go with Nell. Whether she was in love with him or with father's ranch he had never been quite able to make up his mind. On occasion he presumed on the rights of being her fiance, but those qcca->ns were few and far between. So far, so good. But if he tempted her again, might she not fling away om him and wreck all his hopes with single fiery sentence? He knew her well enough to feel the danger. And this, plus the physical dimensions of i Harry Gloster, made him pause to In another moment he was glad that he had delayed, for Gloster was tagged by half a dozen other men, and yet still went serenely on and showed not the slightest intention of abandoning his partner. It was not Gainor alone who had been, insulted, but a whole group of men, and every one of them was on fire with rage. Moreover, they were not fellows to lie down under such an insult. In fact, they were such men that what had let offend he could not !
