A Good Start HE sun was slowly ascending into the- sky. when Billy stepped into the cool air and started for the garage. He was in fine spirits this bright morning and whistled in a carefree manner as he walked along. On his way to the garage, it wasnecessary for him to pass a bright red house in which lived a couple of old maids. They, too, arose early that morning, and as Billy approached the house, his whistle became louder. Suddenly a white head appeared in the opened window, and looking around, Miss Shelly saw the boy. Stop that racket so early in the morning, she shouted. Billy grinned with delight and answered, But my dear lady, that is good whistling and the best I can do for you in the line of music. You know, the boys say that I'm a prodigy when it comes to whistling. Well, them boys must be plumb crazy, or you're just lying, she replied. No, M'am, I never told a lie. Well, good mornin'.

I payed the last installment last night, and now I own every bit of it. You still owe me those ten bucks that I invested in the garage, Billy said. Oh, now it's becoming easier. That's why you used we when we were talking about our redecorations? Stan asked cunningly. I didn't mean anything by that, Stan, I merely thought it an easier way to get ideas, replied Billy rather meekly. Not a bad alibi, Billy. Better get the fioor swept the first thing. Billy swept the floor, after which he started washing windows. He was up on the stepladder washing the big plate glass in the show room when a bee flew in, circled around and lit on his ear. A loud crash echoed through the garage. A shout for help was immediately answered by Stan and a couple of his mechanics. Billy had been lucky, he thought, because the large plate
