They were going to eat at a swanky joint down town. He had a couple of, pieces of folding money in his pocket and there was a smile on his face that reached from one ear to the other and half way to the back of his neck. The car in which they rode was only twelve summers oldl, but it was still a good car, so he said. The only trouble with it was that there was no battery in it.

He stuck his hand through the door, cut off the switch, and then yelled: "Let's go Tlhe smoke stopped. Stokes Davis started and his date followed. They 1)ushed their way through the crowd that had assembled and left the car. An hour later, they returned, cranked the hack, and drove off. Next day, Stokes was seen walking his girl to another eating-place. --U. U. 0.
