ARCADE TO-DAY
Chapter v.
THE STORM in TIE DESERT


Bob Hathaway in the prison stock
ade with Tom and Zeda, had bor-
rowed a cigarette from the Arab
guard. Then, concealing his move
ments, he burned the cord binding
the arms of the others, and soon they
were all free. The guard dozed; they
put him out of commission by hitting
him over the head with his own rifle,
and Marion, from without, aided them
i'm opening the prison door.
Then they discovered that Helen
was missing, and set out to hunt for
her. Through the Jungle thlcknesses,
Zeda leading the way, they followed
her footsteps. Then Zeda quiekened
his pace-he saw the footprints of the
strange beast take up the journey.
In a clearing, where the gorilla-man
had put down the swooning girl, the
party came upon the monster With a
cry of rage, he leaped upon them.
Their combined strength was hardly
able toscope with the beast, but fin
ally welldireeted shot put an end to
his career of terrorism.

PROTEST REMOVAL
OF SOLDIER DEAD
Paid Advertisement Inspired
by Letter of Owen Wister

erof~st against the removal of
American soldier dead from the

The protest was inspired by re-

which he stated, in part:
What Inspired Protest.
piles of these poor fragments of
human beings lie at Hoboken un-
from the soil their sacrifice made
sacred. and where. as an honored and
cared-for company. they lay in peace.
their graves tended, their memory
historic and precious to France. Now
many go to potters' field. Such as
are claimed and taken to some family
graveyard will soon be forgotten.
Those who mourn them will be dead,
too. Had they been left in France
they would have been cherished as
long as France endures.
NO mother could come to France
and see where the boy lies and not
he comforted and thankful he is
there. But exploiting mothers grief
- to put money in certain pockets
goes on.
Three weeks ago l say our great
cemetery at Romange. Its grass was
green, it's crosses white. Peace and
beauty filled it. In mid-May forty
per cent of those dead are to be drag
ged up, and Romange will look like
an old mouth, half teeth. half gums.
Can nothing stop this hideous
mockery of the living and the dead?'
Protest In Part.
The advertisement. addressed to
war mothers and fathers" says, in
part:
. After visiting our beautifully kept
national cemeteries in France, war
mother said: There is not one cross
a out of line; not one blade of grass
too long. This care will continue
as long as our nation exists.
And the reverence of the French
people! Where can we equal that,
here at home? French men passing
by these hallowed spots raise their
hats, and on Sundays and holidays
French families pass through -
narrow paths with deep interest and
respect.

 OUT IN OPEN BOAT

Two prospectors, Ed Thompson and Chris Mickelson, who left on a prospecting trip to Taylor Bay and vicinity six weeks ago in a dory are much overdue and friends of the men are growing anxious over them.
 Many inquiries have been made of gasboat men who have been in the vicinity of Taylor Bay and no one has seen the men since they left here weeks ago. Several big storms have occurred during the time that they have been out and it is feared that. their boat has been wrecked and that they may be marooned on the beach somewhere. rt ~ Both men are experienced men on the water but has heretofore sailed in larger boats, and it is feared that they may have overestimated the sea going qualities of their dory and put out to sea in a storm.
 Gasboat men are asked to look out fer the men and if they are sighted and where to bring the word to Juneau.
