Another advantage the fellow in
the smell town has over his brother
n the city is running down the
owner of a classified ad. In the
small town when one puts a want
ad in the paper and gives only his
telephone number, the curious take
down the phone bonk anil run
through the numbers until they find
the right one. Thus they can tell
who put in the blind ad and specu
late as to why she is selling oil" her
furniture and other things. This
sharpens the instinct of thaamatcur
detective and keeps neighborhood
gassip from growing stale. The
woman in the city is denied this joy
as the telephone books are too large
and the job too tedious.
mense audiences at the church both
morning and evening and the results
of the day made everybody happy. The
male quartet in the evening seemed to
please and edify the audience. The
sunrise prayer meeting was well at
tended and was followed by a break
fast at the church. This was the
greatest day since the present minister
has been in Alliance. Next Sunday
will be another great day.
The Wednesday evening prayer
meeting will be one of the best meet
ings of the church. The time is 7:30.
The week of prayer as observed last
week was very good and the leaders
were especially well prepared with the
program.
The district convention of Churches
of Christ will be held at Bayard May
5 to 7. An excellent program for the
entire field of church work will be
given.
The choir practice will be held at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. B. M. Scot

work in leading the choir, which is fur

A forward growth in prayer and
efficiency is our desire.

heavy feet out of the snowdrifts. I
As they neared Bayslde the drlfti'
grew more and more difficult to pene
trate, and at hist Bob, feeling more
like an explorer than a mad lover In a
civilised community, decided that he
would have to leave the cutter behind
him and try the remainder of the trip
on the back of the horse.
Almost blinded, he managed to re
move the harness, all but the bridle,
and to climb on the back of the
horse. At last they turned Into
the street on which Helen Moore
lived. It was after 0 o'clock and therk
wus not a soul In sight Bob bud been
hours making a trip he could have
made In twenty-five minutes under
different circumstances.
He was almost shamefaced as he
rode under the big porch and holding
onto the lines, dismounted and began I
to stamp the snow from his boots.
Immediately a porch light was
turned on und a face appeared In the
window. It whs the face of Helen's
father. Me opened the door.
"Bob Trimmer are you mad?" he
asked.
Mr. Moore looked nt the horse then
hack Into Bob's scarlet face. "Helen."
he called. Then he burst out laugh
ing. "Well, well ; this Is regular mov
ing picture lovemnklng, Bob. But
where can we put the horse?" '
"In the garage." ventured Boh.
"Oh Bob Trimmer," cried Helen,
entering the doorway and seeing the
picture ' outside. "How where
why-" '
"Never mind about that now, my
dear," said her father, "liet's get him
In and have his steed attended to.
You con why where how later."
' After they were comfortably seared
by the big log fire and Bob had been
fed as If he were an Invalid and petted
as If he were an actor of heroic drama.
Helen ventured to ask him why he at
tempted such a trip on such a night.
"I knew yu had an engagement
with Snyder. I figured he would not
be able to come and I saw my chance.
I have been discouraged about you
Helen. I was about to give up when
the hlixziird, together with a remark j
of a friend about men often playing j
their best games after they were np-
part-iitly beaten gave mo my cue. I j
decided to prove to you how nearly I j
shall try always to overcome any oh- ,
sfncle In order to be with you to have j
you for my own always, dear." j
Helen reached out her hand and put '
It In his. "You did not need to do this. :
Bob, to make me believe It. You need-j
ed only ordinary courage, and you had '
failed to have even that of late. I
was beginning to be afra'd you did not
cure If if IVed stepied Into your .
place." ;
"If you could have stcn me strug-
gllng for my very existence up on West
Alley road between He cutter and the
back of old li'xle the hr.ro. you would
never have doubted me. dear. Dur'ng
that few minutes. I learned thaf you
are dearer to me than anything eNc
In the world that you are my world.
I love you."
Helen could not reply In words. ,

The Speedwagon
No greater general utilty truck than this Reo Sneed
wagon has ever leen placed on the market, and the increas
ing favor with which it is received the country over, attests
to its popularity among all classes of people.
It is a truck for the Farmer, Uanchman, Merchant, Dray
man or Contractor, and will deliver the goods quickly, eco
nomically and satisfactorily.
Its !tnlt-in Quality rives it that freedom from repair and
up-keep that is so highly prized by the owner or operator. In
other words, it is a twenty-four-hour-a-dav truck that is on
the job every moment of the twenty-four 'hours, and giving
value received for every dollar invested in its maintenance.
No matter what your work may be, A IiEO Sweedwagon
will fill the bill. It will do the work of the big cumbersome
trucks in the same length of time at a whole lot less expense,"
and will handle the light work more quickly than the cheap
trucks at as small an expense.
Its speed and easy riding qualities make it an ideal car to
ride over the country in and forms a combination of work
and general utility that is unequaled in any other machine.
All parts and service right here in Alliance assure the
Speedwagon owner of a home. A truck nowadays without a
home is an orphan indeed. The moral is abvious don't buy
an orphan UTjY A IIEO.
