Where freight cars were not available dealers have driven trucks over the roads, radi ating out from Lansing in all direc tions. Coupled with the great de mand urging them on to driveways was the fact that the Speed Wagon, while a real truck, is both fast and easy riding and handles as easily as a touring car. The same quali ties which make it a favorite for long distance passenger and freight hauling make possible long distance driveaways. Fleets of Speed Wagons have been going over the road to points at such distance ,as Shreveport, La., Bir mingham, Ala., Atlanta, Ga., Toronto, Ont., Hartford, Conn., Boston and Philadelphia.

And the woman's eyes were round with as tonishment for a moment, for she could not remember her transfor mation, nor imagine what had re stored her to life. "Good morning, Ma'am," said Billina, in her sharp voice. "You're looking quite well, considering your age."

But the name doesn't matter. I've saved you from the Nome King, and you are a slave no longer." "Then I thank you for the graci ous favor," said the Queen, with a graceful courtesy. "But, my chil dren—tell me, I beg of you—where are my children?" and she clasped her hands in anxious entreaty. "Don't worry," advised Billina, pecking a tiny bug that was crawl ing over the chair back. Just at present they are out of mischief and perfectly safe, for they can t even "What mean you, O stranger?" asked the Queen, striv ing to repress her anxieiv.

But the Queen who had kiss ed all her nine children once more and could now find time to take an interest in what was going on, said to the hen: "Mayhap, my gentle friend, it is the grasshopper whom you seek." "Of course it's the grasshopper!" exclaimed Billina. "1 declare, Im, nearly as stupid as these brave sol-, diers. Wait hero for me, and I'll go back and get it." So she went into the room where she had seen the grasshopper, and presently Ozma of Oz, as lovely and dainty as ever, entered and approach ed the Queen of Ev, greeting her as one high-born princess greets an other. "But where are my friends, the Scarecrow and the Tin Woodman?" asked the girl Ruler, when those courtesies had been exchanged. "I'll hunt them up," replied Bil lina. "The Scarecrow Is solid gold, and so is Tiktok; but I don't ex actly know what the Tin Woodman is, because the Nome King said he had been transformed into something funny." Ozma eagerly assisted the hen in her quest, and soon, the Scarecrow and the machine man, being orna ments of shining gold, were discover ed and restored to their accustomed forms. But, search as they might. In no place could they And a funny or nament that might be the trans formation of the Tin Woodman.

"Then," said Billina, in her t>risk little voice, "let us all go back to the Nome King, and see what he has to say for himself." So they started for the entrance, Ozma going first, with the Queen and her train of little Princes and Princesses following. Then came I Tlktok, and the Scarecrow with Bil lina perched upon his straw-stuffed shoulder. The twenty-seven officers , and the private brought up the rear. As they reached the hall the doors flew open before them; but then they all stopped and stared into the domed cavern with faces of as tonishment and dismay. For the room was filled with the mail-clad warriors of the Nome King, rank af ter rank standing in orderly array. The electric lights upon their brows gleamed brightly, their battleaxes were poised as if to strike down their foes: yet they remained motion less as statues, awaiting the word of command. And in the center of this terrible army sat the little King upon his throne of rock. But he neither smiled nor laughed. Instead, his face was distorted with rage, and most dreadful to behold. After Blllina had entered the palace Dorothy and Evrlng eat down to wait the success or failure of her mission, and the Nome King occupied his throne and smoked his long pipe for a while in a and contented mood. Then the bell above the throne, which sounded whenever an en chantment was broken, began to ring, and the King gave a start of annoyance and exclaimed, "Rocket ty-ricketta!" When the bell rang a second time the King shouted angrily, "Bmudgo and blazes!" and at a third ring he screamed in a fury, "Hippikalorlc!" which must be a dreadful work be cause we don't know what it means. After that the bell went on ring ing time after time; but the King was now so violently enraged that he could not utter a word, but hop ped out of his throne and all around the room in a mad frenzy, so that he reminded Dorothy of a jumping jack. The girl was, for her part, filled with Joy at every peal of the bell, for it announced the fact that Bil lina had transformed one more or nament into a living person. Dor othy was also amazed at Billina's success, for she could not Imagine how the yellow hen was able to guess correctly from all the be OCTOBER 25, 1919. wilderlng number of articles clus tered in the rooms of the palace. But after she had counted ten, and the bell continued to ring, she knew that not only the royal family of Ev, but Ozma and her followers also, were being restored to their natural forms, and she was so de lighted that the antics of the angry King only made her laugh merrily. Perhaps the little monarch could not be more furious than he was be fore, but the girl's laughter nearly drove him frantic, and he roared at her like a savage beast. Then, as he found that all his enchantments were likely to be dispelled and set free, he suddenly ran to the little door that opened to the balcony and gave the shrill whistle that summon ed his warriors. Editor's Note —Next week we shall learn how the Scarecrow outwitted the wicked' Nome King, when he sought to make Dorothy and Ozma and all their party his prisoners, and of how they thus defeated the King's terrible armies.

FUNDS SOUGHT FORLOUVAIN Americans Aid in Rebuilding of the Belgian University; Half Million Needed Reports reaching the executive committee of the national commit tee of the United States for the Restoration of the University of Louvain emphasizes the acute ne cessity of providing at the earliest possible moment a library to replace the building destroyed by the Ger mans. The executive committee, of which Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler of Columbia University is chairman, said in a statement just issued that the work of the University of Lou valn was being seriously retarded by the absence of library facilities. The other members of this commit tee are Thomas W. Lamont, Alexan der J. Hemphill, Herbert Putnam and E. H. Outerbridge. The attention of the American people is called to the fact that the University of Louvain has practically no endowment, and that it is depen dent upon the small fees of its stu dents and individual gifts. The eagerness of the Belgians to resume their studies was indicated by an enrollment of no less than 2,000 last April. The committee has received fur ther assurance from his eminence Cardinal Mercier, of his keen lnter- I est in the national project to build | and equip a library at Louvain at a cost of $500,000. The response to the appeal for funds in the cities which the Cardinal has visited, it was said, has been encouraging. The committee's statement made it plain, however, that the $500,000 goal was far from being reached and that substantial contributions were needed if the committee's purpose to com plete the raising of the fund by November 4, when the Cardinal sails for home, is realized.
