by not wearing a hearing aid? Some people in our highly civilized society refuse to wear a hearing aid be-

cause of their enslavanent to false personal van- ity. These otherwise intelligent man and women think that they can hide their hearing loss. They dealt realise. C want to admit, that their deficient hearing is obvious-undo tremendous burden-to friends and associates who have to repeat and shout to make themselves understood.

Because they cannot hear, these people give the irnpreuion thsttbeysrednllandbaclrwsrd...nian-y lose their friends . . . lose their jobs . . . even jeopard- ize their lives and the lives of others because while driving autos and crossing roads they miss the wam- ing sounds and signals that guide us safely through

Synopsis

Gary Tallman, young petro- leum engineer from Alabama. misses his has In Texas end Mona Mason. wife of a cattle rancher. gives him a lift. Gary is injured when her car crashes in A ditch and the Masons nurse him back to health. He falls in love with twenty- one-yesr-old Adelalda but. un- willing to propose to her un- til he has a Job. Gary decides it is time to be on his way to Mexico. Because he suspects there is oil on the Mason land tests are made. and scientists uphold Gary's opinion. Adelaide drives Gary to the oil fields to find a drill contrector for Harvey Mason.

CHAPTER XIII

The well or it. the thrill of it. had Gary again. He leaped up to the muddy derrick floor and reach- ed a. hand to help Adelaide.

Above them. the silvery deniok loomed a hundred feet in air, beautiful as a. chord of music, shining in the sun. And under their feet, thrust into the earth strange pipes and tools went down, keeping their secrets of what lay beneath.

"Now you're standing over an oil well." Gary said. "It's just come in and all the stuff is still here, so you can get an idea of the job it is to drill one. Want to wait in the car while I hunt up the fellow whole in charge of this outfit?"

"Let me go too. I'm fascinated, Gary. I'm so glad we're going into oil.” Her eyes were glowing, her cheeks flushed. "Is this the Oil well here. where this black thing

5 sticks dovm,"

”No, that's what oil men call the rat hole. Just a hole dug to rest that tool in. The wells hers - under this little shining jiggrr - lL's shut off new. They may not let in flow for a year of two, but it's ready to go."

A rickety trailer was parked un- .rlrr a tree, beyond the two big .boilers. Beyond it, on a piece of .electric wire, two shine and a . dreary looking sheet dangled limp- ly in the sun. and under the tree, stretched on an army blanket. lay an unshaven man of middle age, .with his hat dragged down over his eyes and a small white dog wcurlcd up in a sleepy knot on his lchesl. The dog sprang awake and .charg1ng. yapplng. as they ap- lproached, and the man sat up, scrubbing his eyes with calloused fingers.

"Know who owns this drilling outfit?" Gary asked.

”Sure I know - Hymle Start owns it. Going to move it tomor- row. down Loitlhelr Henderson fleld"

"No luck." said Gary to Adelaide. S'We'll have to look somewhere else."

"You looking for a drilling Job?

Go up yonder and talk to Jun Hickey. Up in that shanty with the red front on it. jut beyond that machine shop. towards the stripper. Jlrn's a good drlller - good as there la He picked up his stuff (when old man Maury Brewer went busted. You go talk to him."

Jlm Hickey talked gllbly and eu- erly. He would, so he promised, get a well down quicker and cheaper than any other man around. He could move on in twenty-four hours and mud in the next day.

Adelaide sat patiently on the running board of an old car while Gary and the toothlaa Jim. prowl- ed around a yard full of ponder- ous maohlnery. Then Gary came back and said, "Let's go. I-lls stuff is old. He hsanll. got the money to have it overhauled. Well look somewhere

He folded the grimy paper on which Jim Hldey had stunned his drilling costs. and put it ln his pocket. "I'll show this to your father, but he probably won't. want lo rlsk Hickey on the job. A break- down can eat up money moor than anything I know, in the oil business.”

It was dark when they turned back toward the ranch. Adelaide was tired and quiet. she had c.l.lmb- ed over miles of rough ground, driven the car over roads (that were no roads, looked inside houses that wine squalid beyond belief, talked to women whose voices had sunk to patient mmotones. to women who had seen their men killed by falling derrloks. women whcy were young and still thrilled by the romance of oil.

She said. "1 don't see how they stand it. those women! I went to school with Patty Clllsner. and look at that awful little house she lives in - stuck in there with derrlpks in the front yard and the back yard and a squeaky old pump going, And not even a rug on the floor - she said It was no use. Dave brought so much mud in on his feet and she just wouldn't nag at him."

"Dave's s petroleum engineer. He's field superintendent for the Foster people. It's a good Job. And Dave's wife is an oil man's wife. I've seen them down in Louisiana. living in tin garages - with saw- dust on the floors. They're a pretty brave lot of women.”

"I guess I'm not that brave. I don't believe I culd stand it,” Ade- laide sald. And then for fifteen miles after that there was a silence heavy and thick. i

The silence lasted through the night. Adelaide dressed after din- ner, and a. young man with a red roadstcr appeared. .

Gary sat alone with Mona Lee for a while. listening to the radio,

then went upstairs to his room to write letters - to Oll men that he knew, asking for n.job. oil was his work - he had chosen it and, he could not give it up. He could not change -- not even for Ade. lr-nde, who had looked at the in- side of n petroleum engineers lit-i tle house and hated it. Yet he. know, with a knowledge that wasl deep pain all the way thmughl that he was in love with Adelaide. 1

He had finished the third mlstlel and licked the stamp when he. heard Mona Lee coming up the; stairs. she stopped outside hlsi door and said. "I thought you'd; gone to bed. Gary, would you gol

several times Homer headed straight into the wind. He didn't want to. Flying against the wind would be hard work. But some- thing told him that if he would get home he must fly in that direc- tlon. It was that little camps! in his head called instinct that made him sure home lay straight in the direction from which the wind was blowing. Most of the flock followed him. for the homes of most of them lay in that gen- eral direction.

The farther they flew the hard- er the wind blew. It was tire- some. It was very tiresome. They hadn't flown a great distance be- fore some of the weaker birds be- gan .io fall back. They couldn't hold the speed against the wind. Presently Homer found that there were only three or four birds with hlrn. One by one these dropped back until at last Homer was fly- lnl alone. At times lt seemed to him he didn't move ahead at all. That wind was so strong it blew him almost to a standstill in the alr. His stout wings grew more and more tired. Still he kept on. He was tempted to give up. and nek shelter down below. But something inside kept urging him. on. Now and then the wind would lessen a little. That made easier flying. and it renewed Homer's courage. Without knowing it he was meeting a lost of pluck: a test of one of the most Import- ant things a. raclng blrd has. The two chief things in success in rac- ing are speed and pluck. Of course pluck is just a shorter substitute for the word courage.

The wind blew and blew and blew. The farther he flew thehard- er the wind seemed to blow. It didn't really blow any harder. but it seemed that way because Homer was growing more and more tired. When at last he was near enough to home to see famlllnr things. farms over which he had flown many times. Homer felt readv to drop. It seemed as if he couldn't
