“Spring in This Day and Age” ABOUT the best indication ot spring is the little old Ford. When you go out into the country early in spring you may see one stu k in a mud hjle, hung up on a rock, or maybe In a bar ed wire fence. As you look over the fields you may see a Ford, ten or fifteen years of age. laboriously dragging a heavy plough after it. As you near the farms in the neighborhood you may see the Ford so arranged that it can be used to cut the winter’s supply of wood. The country is not the only place where Fords are to be seen in spring but the towns are also infested with them. They are the subject of all conversation by boys on their way to school. “I got new spark plugs for Elizabeth” last night” or “I got some new tires for the old can this morning” is the general drift of the talk. As you near your friend’s home you hear what you think is a load of tin cans being hauled away. But on investigation you find it is your friend. Bill, overhauling his Buzz Wagon.” as he calls it. He is straightening out mud-guards and repairing every thing in general. ri here are bits of mechanism strewn all over the place. A spark plug here, a carburetor there, a few nuts and bolts in a box and so on. Upon being questioned he tells you that he is getting ready for the spring drive. Next door you hear what you think is a machine gun missing fire every two or three shots. You step through the gate that joins the two lots and find your friend, John, laboring over his car”. When you ask him what the trouble is, he may tell you that he just got some new spark plugs, or maybe a new carburetor. He also will tell you that he is getting ready for the spring drive. As the Ford has such a prominent part to play in spring. I am afraid that it won’t be long before they will plant them in good rich soil to raise large machines. But maybe that is beyond even a Ford. 1 think that I am not mistaken in saying that the Ford is the best indicator of spring. 1NGERMAN JACOBSEN. 20. 29

That evening between five and six o’clock there was a tremendous eruption which caused a second Hood down the same channels. As the first had swept everything away the second could do little harm. The next morning the family deserted the place. They 28 were away all that summer and winter. But the spring of 191G found them back on the ranch. They lived in tents all that summer, while the house was being moved up to the foot of the hill where almost a year before they had spent that memorable night, and ever since then they have regarded Ml. lessen with mingled feeling of awe and safety.
