"I suppose not," said the Striped

"Of course I run so easily and so

to run away from it if I don't like it."
"Your talk sounds strange," said the
Striped Lizard's uncle, "but, then, xmi
aren't to blame."
"1 real 1 7 don't think I nn." said the
Striped Lizard. "I have- been ne ver

doubtless run axvay.
"Without a doubt I would do that.

'The Tractor will enable the farmer to
work fewer hours in the day, giving him
mere time to enjoy life. I believe the trac
tor will make farming what it ought to be
the most pleasant, the most healthful,
the most profitable business on earth'."
This tractor has done much very much
in bringing true Mr. Ford's prophecy; for in
it is a machine which has harnessed one of
the most dependable, efficient, adaptable,
economical sources of power in the world
a machine that saves from thirty to fifty
per cent of the farmer's time a machine
which many farmers claim plows, harrows
or drills as much ground in the same time
as four, six or even eight horses. And more
a machine that takes care of every power
job on the farm.

I'er.-hing's policy for xvelding
the regular army, national ftuard and

ready lo meet any emergency, was
set forth today in a letter written

be inaugurated immediately.
Tinier the general terms of the
law." the- letter said, "the corps area
commanders are responsible xvithin
the limits of their respective com
mands for success of this great na
tional undertaking, and the most im
portant mission of regular army of
ficers in time of peace, next after
assuring a highly effeeient and well
trained regular army, is the devel
opment of the national guard and
the org.i nized reserves.
"All citizen soldiers who are free
to meet the special requirements im
posed on members of the national
guard should be encouraged to enter
the force." the letter continued. "All
young men after their voluntary mil
itary training in the reserve officers'
training corps or training camps
should be encouraged to join a unit
either of the national guard or the
organized reserves. There should be
no rivalry between the two forces
but rather an interchange of cervice
between them.
"It is my desire that the officers
detailed for service in the organisa
tion and training of the national
guard and the reserves should be se
lected from the most efficient offi
cers in our army. The corps area
commander and all officers of this
organization xvill he expected to takex
