HENRY FOR] DAY WEEK THE CH BKARBORN, Mich., Nov. 24.?Henry Ford believes in the five-dajr working week because it is good business; he believes in it, also, because with two days of weekly leisure, more people will go to church. The new week that Ford sees coining comprises: Monday to Friday, inclusive labor. Saturday, recreation. Sunday, religious devotion. - Both physical and spiritual recreation, he declares, are esseintial to the perpetuation of the human race. Interlocking In a remarkable discussion Of the iuterocking of man's spiritual with his material welfare, the billionaire manufacturing genius asserted: People today have stressed the physical to the - neglect of the spiritual. In the squirrel cage round of work and recreation which they have devised, they have left no place for the church. The solution of the problem of spiritual development lies in greater leisure. The five-day week provides the opportunity for physical recreation on the sixth day and leaves the seventh free for moral and religious observance. v .. .. 1...., 1 H- mnrfl lullnna ?> i> urn* oa?vua\* i/y w in his insistence upon the preservation of Sunday than the wnorklngnian.

The church will be one of it chlefest bent fici.ariesL The commonest excuse most people give for not going to church is lick of time. Like most excussaa it has in it a grain of truth. Life, as some men view it, is divided into two parts: one the coordianted expending of human faculties, called work; the other, the rebuilding of (hose faculties, called receratlon.

Crackers or crisp toast should accompany the stew. Until last winter, I thought every girl?and pretty nearly every boy, too?over ten years of age knew how to prepare oyster stew. But I discovered my error when a friend oi mine related this experience:, "I had miserable luck with my stew last night?and such lovely oysters, too. I cooked it fully threequarters of an hour, but the oysten a:a __x x i ? uc t ci uiu gcii umucr. I forced myself to answer in level tones. "The less ;pou cook an oyster the more tender it is?and the more digestible. A raw oyster is most easily digested.

NEARLY 811 the other teachers in I Polly's school had gone abroad for the summer vacation, but Polly had bought a little roadster Instead. And now It was nearly the first of September and she felt somehow as If she J a satisfactory | ii a an i uuu quuc vacation as sbe had Hoped. J Now she stood In Larry Blair's garage while a mechanic crept i .tder her trim little car to see Just why It was that the engine had begun to pound o hard that ahe had stopped here for help. An Idle-looking young man waiting for hla car was talking to the | all-foot, gray-eyed man In overalls ! whom the others referred to as "boss." "Nice house you're building next door," observed the waiting young j man. "What's your Idea?" j Polly's eyes suddenly met those of | the gray-eyed young man. He smiled In a most friendly manner and Polly smiled back. "I don't know Just what I shall do," said he. "If ray girl'II have me, then Til marry and settle down. But If my girl won't have me, | then 111 sell It." j "Asked her?" queried the other. "Not In so many words," returned Larry, the boss, "but?oh, she won't want me, so I won't need the house. I What do you want to offer me for It?" I The Idling one made no offer and the | subject of conversation was | changed. Just then the mechanic got j out from under Polly's car and told her I he thought everything was all right and she could pay the boss. She started to pay Larry. " "o,'< T.orrv honrllne back ! YY oil, aaiu j i ? r, ? the money. "Maybe I'd better try that car myaelf." Larry was In the car and had driven It a few feet out of the garage when It Rtopped and ap peared to Jump. With difficulty Larry backed It Into the garage. "There's something special that car needs," he saldl "It won't cost any more?but It needs a new part." P^lly was distressed. "Dear me," ahe said, 'Tm ten miles away from home." "It happens that I am going along that way," said Larry. "Maybe you'd let me drive you home." 80 It was that Polly drove ten miles over the highway with Larry. Larry never spent so much time on ten miles before In his life, lie apologized, saying that there was something the matter with his car. "I don't mind In the least," said Polly. "I have been enjoying the scenery." "8b have I," said the bold Larry, looking Into Polly's pretty face. The next morning Larry brought back Polly's car. "How are you going to get back?" Polly answered and Larry told her that ihe'd stand on the highway and get a lift from some truck or other That la why she felt It was her real di.ty to take Larry back again to his garage. "The scenery Is even more beautiful to look at today than It was yesterday," said Larry. Then said Polly: "It will be very convenient for you. living there right beside your garage. The house la nearly done?you'll soon ba moving In, I suppose." That depends on the girl," said Larry wistfully. Tm sure you and she ought to be very happy, signea pony. i nai is | to say?the house looks so convenient, and I'm sure It would be very nice living so near one's place of business. I cannot Imagine a girl changing her mind after she had once given you her word, or at lea?t made you think she'd marry you. You see I overheard what you were telling that man In the garage yesterday." "la that sol" exclaimed Larry. "Well, I oughtn't to be so careless about how I tell secrets." They had reached the garage and Larry could think of no excuse to detain the little school teacher. But the teacher detained herself. "Yo^i don't mind my looking through the house," she asked. "I'm so fond of new houses." L&rry Insisted on accompanying her. "It Is a neat little place, Isn't It?" he said, looking down at Polly as they atood In the middle of the perfectly equipped little kitchen. "But I'm not going to let the girl I marry wear taeraetf oht working. I'm going to keep a cook for her." "If fhe really loved you she wouldn't mind cooking for you," said Polly. "If 0he didn't really love me!" repeated Larry, looking sadly about. "How I wish I knew!" "Wliy don't you ask her?" ventured Polly, | and then the realization that j this big man, Larry, was trying to make love to her came rushing upon her. She didn't have time to think It all out?whether It would be possible for her?well-bred school teacher?to marry a man who begrimed bis hands with the grease of automobiles. But when Larry went toward her with pleading, outstretched arms she met him half way. "But, Larry," she said, looking up to hlnf as he held her, "I don't like to feel that I've taken some other girri place." "Yotk don't suppose there ever was any ofher girl," accused Larry. "1 Uked?jllked you a lot?first time 1 taw you. 1 was building this house tor speculation?but when I saw you standing there and the question came up, I Celt possessed to say what I did ?and jpou know there wasn't anything more tfie matter with your car. I Just said there was to get an excuse to take you home." An Inventor In Switzerland has developed a process of making strong doth fijora the grinding* of old leather.
