When Arleta stepped out of the rear door the next morning, look ing for something, anything t start a lire, she found th(. sky looking like a strip of lemon p,.,- in a fro.sted drink Surely snow would follow. And .she had so much to accomplish. Looking at the sky. she Hipped over a bundle on the steps, news papers and fine kindling left by How Kelly. A furniture van came to cart away the pieces to he repaired, and by the driver she sent word for the fuel oil men to call. The wires were repaired, the pump turned on and rusty water gushed from the faucets she opened. Chimney sweeps and cleaning crews cleared flues and floors, and fast on their heels came men with the windows By late evening there was a semblance of order. And by noon the next day a new stove and re frigerator gleamed their white and silver best to reflect in a freshly polished floor. And in other rooms fires were burning on the hearths, chasing out the chill. And that evening as Arleta was ready to close the house now warmed by the oil furnace, she heard the sound of a motor and saw her own car drive in and two weary persons emerge. "I think,'' observed Arleta. standing on the lighted terrace, a hand stretched mil to Martin and his wife, "I've never been so glad to see anyone." They hadn't stooped fur dinner and there was nothing in the house. Martin unpacked the car. and when Arleta said she would drive into I he resort town for food. Tunia declared she would go with her. "My cried. goodness. Miss I.cla." : "you don't know what order." Arleta looked at the girl. And j then she nodded. Arleta wouldn't ' have known, hut Chips knew "Tonight 1 bring ready -inades." she said. "Tomorrow I'll take you in. Tunia " And she said. "No ! talk until I return." The re-oil town ottered a gen-1 eral store where she remedied; her over price. She in-t he-rom ders and, put up. food.

And watching the fall of the flakes born on a rising wind, she added her own covers. And when the car was packed she sal for a few moments arguing with herself, then turned the car around and drove up to the village store. Aeain there were many cus tomers stocking no against the storm blowing in And again con versation stopped as though sliced; off. But Arleta's chin was up, her voice arrogant as she listed her needs. The boxes were filled and re .riiti''' tti'm I pant I .

"Well " Arleta caught the words her father would have used and drove oil. The Marlins, having napped during her absence, were re freshed, eager for tooil and for talk.

PRONE 461 Net Farm Income For Tar Heels Is Expected To Drop If Tar Heel farmers expect lo keep their net income al present levels during the expected decline in farm prices in 1950, it will he necessary' for them to plan their operations carefully and keep pro duction costs as low as possible, says Movie S. Williams, farm man agement specialist for the Stale College Extension Service. A 10 per cent drop in farm prices lias been predicted for 1950 by the U. S. Department of Agriculture s llureau of Agricultural Economics. Williams said. This is about the same as the decrease in the 1948 49 crop year. Not only will prices be lower, but it is likely thai farm ers will sell less next year, he adds, pointing out that acreage al lotments have been announced for wheat and cotton and are probable for ol her crops. For the individual Williams, all of this reduction in gross farmer. says will mean a income and probably an even grealei lion in realized nel income reduc As was the ease this year, production costs will probably decline less than gross income. Such costs, which include hems like fertilizer and farm machinery, are expected lo remain high. Williams asserts that belter farm planning will be needed for 1950. Individual farmers, he says, should strive to be better farm managers, keep costs as low as pos sible, and produce quality products which w ill bring premium prices lo help keep income at present levels. Use of improved practices will bring about higher crop yields al lower unit costs, but poor fanners who follow inefficient practices will have dilliculty breaking even. rel with him.'' Driving down a road now slick with slush, she thought she niiehl handle a problem such as this if she only knew the" background, knew what had gone before. The assurance of the man was like a threat. Who would know? This time How Kelly was ready for her, met her at the door. And for a moment .she thoughl wasn't going lo invite her in. when he did, he reached a halfway across the floor to he And heel kick lo the swinging door leading to the living room. "Now what?" he demanded, af ter one look at her. "Doakos," she answered. "He's moved in and refuses to leave Had there beeiv a gun on the place " She stopped. The swing door had opened and Cal Sheridan stood there looking at her gravely. iTo be continued! CASH IKAJSACliUNS i Real Estate Wayiu'sviile Township Claude 1". I rani is and wife to John Palmer.
