SOMEBODY SHOULD
START SC NETTING

Everything that is made of paper
is constantly increasing in pr ce-
g ad the most far-seeing men can't
SEE anything but an -upgrade,ahead
Meanwhile, every week, we stick
into our stoves and furnaces or take
out into our back yards and burn
over 1875, 100000 pounds of paper
that has come into our homes in
one way or another.
Most of us do it thoughtleesly,
though many see in their weekly
task contribution to al appalling
National waste of resource that is
steadily and rapidly diminishing
But there seems to be nothing
that the individual can do about it
except to bnrn the paper. And
more trees have to be cut down
and the day when America will be
without a forest draws a little
nearer.
Community action can operate
to postpone this disaster. The
school house can again be called
upon to render a public service.
st. Louis has shown the way with
an organization of more than one
hundred thousand pupils who take
lall papers and magazines to the
schools once a week, where they
are packed and sold In two years
they have saved almost 1000 tons
of paper, which has been sold for
about $38,0 600 The money is used
to pay annuities TO teachers who
retire after loug service and for
giving relief to teachers tempor a.

of the Senators will first be reveal
I'd when announcement OF the ap-

The doubt of confirmation in

him for the place, though he is in

HOW PONZI DID
THE FIGURING

He may be guilty probably is
of wrong doing, but Ponzi did
some fancy figuring toward finan-
cial fortune. His scheme is not
generally understood. Only finan-
cial experts have grasped it fully.
The Wall Street Magazine has
ventured au explanation, which is
interesting.
Leave America, it says, with, say
about $400. Change it into Gl00,
the present exchange, in London.
Cross to France and exchange it
for silver coin Zone pound equals
az francs) and you have AGO
French francs.
Smuggle these coins into Switz-
erland. Here they attain twice
the value they had in France, ow-
ing to the fact that the silver
French franc is normal in Switz-
erland, but the paper French franc
is worth bat half of it's face value
in exchange. Change the silver
francs into Italian paper lire, then
pass on into Italy and cash into
italian silver.
You now have 81, 1000 Italian sill
yer lire. Take these back into
Switzerland and you have 2l,000
Swiss francs. Purchase Frer ch
paper money and you will receive
$4,000 French francs. Return to
France, there buy English notes
and proceed to London with GI,000
intead of GI00 you set out with.
Change these into American
money at present exchange and
you have about $500 instead OF
about $400 you possessed at The
beginning Of the Journey. This
profit of $3,l00 should be enough
to pay your expenses for the trip
OF course, you have to do bit of
smuggling, but that should add to
thenovelty and interest of the trip

CHAPTER ".
A Bear Trap.


The winding trail led up to the
scrub pines and from there north into
the hills. Curly had not Travelled far
when he heard the sound Of gun
fred three times In quick succession.
He stopped to listen. Presently there
came q faint call for help.
Curly cantered around the shoulder
of the hill and saw man sQuattlng

At the question the man looked over
his shoulder. Pain and helpless rage
burned In the deepset black eyes.
Nothing at all. Don't you see I'm
Just taking q nap1" he answered
quietly.
Curly recognized him now. The man
was Soapy Stone. Little beads Of
perspira ton stood out all over his fore
head. A glance showed the reason.
One of his hands was caught In bear
trap fastened to a cottonwood. Its
jaws held him so that he could not
move.
The young man swung from the
back of Keno. He found the limb of
cottonwood about as thick as his
forearm below the elbow. This he set
close to the trap.
"Soon as l get the lip open shove
her in," he told Stone.
The rescuer slipped the toes of his
boots over the lower lip and caught
the upper one with both hands. Slow
ly the mouth Of the trap opened.
Stone slipped In the wooden wedge
and withdrew his crushed wrist. By
great good fortune the steel had
caught on the leather gauntlet be was
wearing.
Even now he was suffering good
deal.
"Toull have to let doc look at IT,"
Curly suggested.
Stone agreed. "Reckon better
strike for the Bar 90."
His horse had disappeared, but
Curly helped him to the back of Keno.
Together they took the trail for the
Bar 90. On the face Of the wounded
man gathered the moisture caused by
intense paid.
"Hard shedding, looks like" Curly
sympathlzed.
Reckon can stand the grief"
Stone grunted.
Nor did he speak again until they
reached the ranch and Laura London
looked at him from a frightened face

Laura. Too bad to trouble you,'
Soapy answered with a sneer on his
thin lips.

"Y0u try 1t, son. You've always led q

He had said It as a jest, but Curly
did not laugh. Why notP Why
