He returns to the comical, «* u'hich he hail owned a puppet show, two pears later. His pal. Fingers. is with him. Daisy, a girl who has always loved Chick, is tverjoyed when he returns. When a Children Soctety's investigator is barety stalled through a ruse, Chick becomes nervous. Daisy, anxious to marru Chick, tells him of the investif 'ators words that Poochy can't be aken away if C'hick has a wife. C'ltcfc immediately sets out to find a suitable mother for Poochy., Daiey is heartbroken. ! NOW 00 OS WITH THE STORY Chick went on his date. He went, but he didn't get very far, for Helen Holbrook proved to be the wife of one Dr. Taylor, and, therefore. could be of no use to 'Poochy as a mother. Disgruntled, and more than a little disillusioned. Chick returned to his small apartment. "6h, Daisy!" There was no an-, swer to 'Chick's call. "Daisy!" Chick ran quickly through the 'apartment. No doubt about it-- Daisy was grcme! • He . walked badk Into the living room, a vast vacuum of loneliness enveloping him. Suddenly, he thought of Ppochy's room. He opened the door quickly, silently. There was Fingers, slumbering near Ppochy's crib. At least, the baby wasn't left alone! Chick grabbed Finger's shoulder. Fingers woke with a start. When they were out in the living room. Chick spoke. "Where's Daisy?" His tone was low. No sense waking Poochy. "Phfft!" said Fingers.... "done bye-bye!" "Cut the comedy. Where'd she «o?" "Search me. She phoned for me to come over and mind the kid. mean--don't win How can I miss? All they gotta d> is nke one look at Poochy--and the contest is over." "Yeah, ,1 know. But s-ipposin' somethin'happens and you don't win." "If we don't, thin the whole thing i must be a frame-up" Ke crossed \ the room. "Look at the float I go£." Fingers was skeptical. "Don't looks so hot to me." "No! That's cause you ain't got any imagination. Wait'll I get it all fixed up with flowers an' things." "Poochy oughta be dolled up, too," insisted Fingers. "It's a shame Daisy ain't here. Sheki know what to do." "And~l don't, huh?" "Yeah, I guess you do--but Daisy could--I forgot to tell you, Dick. I found out where she is." "Who cares?" A moment later Chick asked, "Where is she?" "I was talkin' to Mac yesterday. He says she left town." "She has? Where'd she go?" "I don't know, Mac just said aha left town--and ain't comin' back." "Thought you said' you knew tvhofA ohm "I wish I did. I'd like to see Daisy again.*' "Oh, you would, huh?'Well, yoU. can have her, I'm gonna be too busy with the contest. We gotta win it; Fingers. We can't afford to have nothin1 go wrortg." "Oh, you'll win it all right." "You bet we will. Can't you pie* ture Poochy and me marchln' along in the parade. I can Just bear everybody sayin', 'My, My--what'a remarkable child!' It's a pushover. Fingers--a pushover." Poochy might--might with reservations-- have had a chance. Only he picked the wrong time to play games. While the Judge was examining him, Poochy pulley Ms beard. The Judge was hurt, physically and morally.

'Can't you picture me and Poochy marchin' along in the parade?" (Posed by Lee Tracy and Dickie Walters) When I got here she was all packed. Said she had a wire from her folks and had to leave for Florida right away." "Florida! Her folks are up in Seattle." "That's what I thought. But I was too tired to argue with her. Say, how'd you make out with that dame?" "What dame?" "The one from the incubator." "Oh. her? She's a phoney." ' ; "Looked like a 'natural' to me." Chick talked fast. "Yeah. That's what 1 thought til I got to talking to her. They all look great till you come to sirin' 'em up. So Daisy left me flat, huh? That means she's leavin' the act. too." "I guess so." "Well, that's just dandy. What I .should have expected, I suppose, you can't trust 'em. Any of 'em! Now I gotta start breakin' in another girl." Chick started to pace the room. "I don't know what kick she had comin.' I gave her a swell berth, didn't I? I let her take care of Poochy, didn't I? Gee whiz, I did everything for her. That's the thanks 1 get for it." "Yeah." said Fingers, "that's a woman for you." "Whadda you know about it? do on home. Whadda you hangin' around here for?"( Fingers shrugged and started for the door. "'Night. Chick." "'Night," Chick mumb'.ed, then, "Fingers " Fingers stopped in the doorway. "Thanks for comin' over. Good- - night, kid." Chick turned and walked slowly towards Poochy's room. When the sun rose the next morning, it seemed no different than other suns. Yet it must have been. Chick would have swor<n to that! In the first plape. another investigator from the Children's Society came to the carnival looking for Poochy. But Chick had been forewarned. He grabbed Poochy and ran. Fingers following.. If the investigator hadn't come they wouldn't have landed in that restaurant. If they hadn't landed in that restaurant, they wouldn't have seen the truck passing with the sign on it about the baby contest and the $500 prize. If Chick hadn't seen the sign, he wouldn't have had an idea, li Chick hadn't had an Idea--well--- "It's a cinch h" Chick was enthusiastic. "A lead pipe cinch! Listen <--the Children's Society wanna take him away. Why? Cause they think ihe's being neglected. But they gotta iprove it, see? Now, how they gonna iget up in court and say the world most perfect baby ls neglected? It donjt make sense, see? They wouldn' ! have a leg to stand )on." "But suppose you don't win asked Fingers. Chick looked up. "What do you over the amplifiers, "Each Judge will write the name of the baby he has selected, on a piece of paper which he will then seal in one of these small envelopes." He held up the envelope for the crowd to see, then placed it on the table in front of him. He stopped, for a man was dashing up to the judge's stand to talk u> him. The man was Fingers. Hey, listen," Fingers Jabbered, the man up there--on account of every once in .a while--you wanna wait--the noise of the plane ls no good." He pointed in buck of the ' announcer. "He told me to come." The announcer turned. A9 he did, ! Fingers' deft digits soon acquired j the small bundle of votes, and an- , other small duplicate bundle sub-, stituted. Into Fingers' pocket went' the real votes. "They keep coming' and coming. I rushed down--in case1 they can't hear--so I said sure, I'll! go. What'll I teli him?" The announcer's lojver jaw hung: low. "What the devil are you talk-' ing about?" •' Fingers pointed Into the air. -"He thought maybe that the noise" What noise? I'm not bothered by any noise. Who sent you, anyway?" "The man. I'll tell him no noise. 'II tell him it's all right. I'll tell him vou said it." Fingers dashed off quickly. The announcer shrugged. Maybe he was wrong. He turned to the package of vptfs and proceeded to open it. 'Here we go, ladles and gentle-, men." came the bellowing voice. "In few moments some little baby is! going to become famous. Makes me feel like being young again." As he opened each package, the expression on his face became more intense. But there was nothing to do.about it. He spoke into the mike" again. "Well, here it is, ladies and gentleman. The votes were divided four to one. The one Vote went to that very lovely child, No. 16, Carolyn Henderson. The other " four votes--and the winner of the contest--No. 14, Poochy Crawford.", The announcer called still louder, "Poochy Crawford--No. 14. Well, isn't he here? No. 14--Poochy Crawford!" , Chick was electrified Into action. "Yeah! Yeah! Here I am!" Het dashed up to the Judges' stand., "Here I am! I mean, here he Is. No. 14--Poochy Crawford." The announcer's lips were set In a thin line. "CongratulI?lons, Me.' Crawford. Will you say a few words into the radio?" "Yeafi, sure " Chick would have been immensely pleased if lie could have seen the delight written on Daisy's face when the decision was announced. Of course, Daisy was among the spec-' tators.

Into every gallon of Tydol is blended * special top-cylinder oil.; We call this lubricant, "llie engineer in every gallon", because it tunes up your motor, the way an expert engineer would. It jttakes your motor operate so much more easily that Tydol lasts longer and goes further. This super-lubricant, which is also a carbon-solvent, is carried by the gasoline itself to the valves, the pis*- fOn-heads, and upper-cylinders of your motor... placet which your motor oil does not reach. It lubticate# those vital spots, protects them from heat and friction, frees them from carbon, and makes their operation effortless and smooth as silk. V That is why "the engineer in every gallon' extra miles in any tank. Yet those extra miles cost yo|| -- not a single extra penny.
