No longer, by the day, did he apolo« glze when he kissed her, and their stolen moments together had become very sweet. It was at this time that Maddox and Furlong clasbed. Some new tackle was being slung and Ben had been sent up aloft while the foreman issued directions from below. It was heavy work. Ben was forced to cling to the derrick timbers or to balance himself upon a narrow plank, and his progress at times did not suit the elder man. Maddox was in a surly mood. anyhow, and he beâ€" eame profane.

Finaliy he fetched up at the Durham home where live an elderly aunt, shortly widowed by the explosion of a powder wagon, and her niece, pretty Betty Durham. . . . Perhaps because of his smile, Betty cooks some food for Ben and while he eats he learns the aunt, in town on business, has an oil man, Tiller Maddox, sinking an oil well for her. . . . A short 6 inch boit worked loose from the rigging and is in the bottom of the well. Work has been suspended for days as the crew "figh" for the bolit and operating funds dwindle away. . . . Furlong offers to give a hand but Maddox objects . . .. Betty insists and overrules Maddox so Furlong fashions a tool which he has just lowered into the well, hoping to figh out the bolt. . . .

His enmity for the driller had finally foamed over. In proximity to this flaming passion Maddox‘s smoldering dislike gave off no heat; nor at short notice could he fan its embers into a blaze. After a brief survey, pregnant with possibiliâ€" ties, he turned hisg head and winked at the other men.

Fireplace Built ‘o_nl Taking as a pattern a house which had been built in the 18th century, the house owner had a freplace built in exactly the same space that the closet had occupled, which brought the base of the fireplace two feet from the floor. The doors of the closet were left on, and in cold weather they were opened, while during the sumâ€" mer they were closed, removing all suggestion that there was a freplace There are many types of Areplaces, but they all tend to make & livingâ€" room more enjoyable and comfortable. If you care for the unusual, and your taste rums to colonial or provir cial furniture, remember that in the olden days fireplaces were not always on a level with the ground, and that many of them were kyee hbigh. Eighteenth Century Pattern In the dining room of one very oldâ€" fashioned house, there was no fireâ€" place, but, peculiarly enough, a dish closet had been built at the back of the fireplace which faced the living room. With this in mind "we bave advoâ€" cated establishment of short_courses where girls could learn these things." If the girls dida‘t learn to be econâ€" omically selfâ€"supporting on the farms, then they came to the cities "and the ¢ity ~versus country problem continâ€" ues." Once you have experienced the luxâ€" ury of a fireplace, you will never want to be without one. Country girls left their homes to seek work in stores, offices, schoois and so on, It was "fine for the girls" but it "depleted country life." The last census showed there wete three men to every woman in the country in the age group 20 to 24, Mrs. Suthâ€" erland pointed ont. City Vs. Country Problem But girls on iarms and in country towns wanted to be selfâ€"supporting as much as the boys did. ‘The boy was an economic factor; he could run a plow or a tractor. The girl was a poâ€" tential economic factor. She could learn beeâ€"keeping, horticulture, garâ€" dening, poultry raising, "something to add to the farm income and fit in with patural aptitude."

Some laboratory tests have been made in the radio division of the Westingâ€" house Electric and Manufacturing Company at Chicopea Falls, Mass., and it has been found that they do a much quicker and better job than steam. Experiments were made with a 14â€" lb ham. To cook a ham of this size by steam required four and {ive hours and the ham suffered a loss in weight of a pound and a half. When the same ham was cooked by the shortlength radio waves, it was cooked to a deliâ€" cate flavour in twenty minutes and the loss in weight was only half of a pound. The time was thus reduced to oneâ€"twelfth that of steam and the loss in weight was reduced oneâ€"third.
