It was just getting very exciting when
I had to leave of in the last story, Tor
don't you remember the handsome prince
with little Puss Junior had Just jumped
out Of the coach and were running into
the castle to save the lovely princess
who was a prisoner there?
Well. no sooner had they entered than
a wicked lord came down stairs with d
sword In his hand and struck at the
handsome prince And, oh. dear me! the
handsome prince received great wound
In his arm and his sword fell from his
hand. And then little Puss jumped up
on the banisters and before that wicked
lord could kill the prince our brave little
cat cut off the wicked lords head.
And then a great key fell to the floor
with a bang, and Puss picked 1t up
and he and the handsome prince, who
felt very weak. because his arm hurt him
dreadfully, you know, went down into
the basement and then down into the
cellar. and then down into the dungeon.
And don't see how little Puss Junior
knew that the key would FIT the dun
geon door. but It did, and in less than
i've hundred short seconds the lovely
princess was led out, for II was so dark
that you could hardly see, and IL

the cup across to me to ill with the
swallow of clear, black coffee with which
he always concludes his breakfast. He

back the cup Of steaming coffee.

There was a time when the Stars and
Stripes, flying above the ships OF mer
chant marine that covered the seven seas,
WAS a formidable factor in the Pacific
Ocean. In the early '50s 1t was we'll
within the power OF America to dom-
nate the Pacific Still in the flush Of
national growth following the taking into
the fold Of Texas and California. the
eyes of the United States turned upon the
Pacific and It's immense possibilities for
trade and commerce. Many Of the hun
dreds of islands which dot that huge
body Of water were unclaimed by any
nation and Congress authorized American
ships to take possession OF any which
seemed desirable.
There was not at that time any power,
with the exception Of Great Britain, in
a position TO offer determined rivalry
to this course. Spain, Germany. Russia.
Portugal and France had other things
claiming their attention. The star Of
Japan had not yet arisen. America viz
tually had things her own way
Then came the civil War and the long
period Of reconstruction which followed
It, The American merchant marine dis
appeared from the Pacific and later from
almost all waters. Other nations stepped
in and took over Pacific possessions and
almost ell Of the islands over which the
American flag had been planted were
permitted TO pass over TO countries which
had the time and the desire to develop
them.
The Spanish American War brought
about a change. Acquisition Of Hawaii
and the Philippines and the purchase Of
Alaska served 20 stimulate our interest tn
the Pacific To-day. with a dozen small
possessions there, we are again reaching
out for trade that rightfully Is ours be-
