Joel Their shouts seemed to come
nearer Joe stepped on it. The
yells became fainter.
"Then Joe discovered he was
running in the opposite direction
of the fort He was headed for his
own family's cabin. Well, thinks
he, that's all right. I'll go to the
cabin, get my canoe and paddle
down the river to the fort. I'll get
there quicker than | would by
running through the woods.
HE found the canoe where he
had hidden it, padded to the mid
die of the river and headed for the
fort. He had settled comfortably
in the boat when from the shore
came a bling! bing!' There was a
whiz and a plop!-a bullet struck
the side of Joe's canoe. Another
whiz and a bullet hit the blade Of
his paddle.
Joe knew it wouldn't do to con-
tinue padding in gun-shot of the
Indians. But there wasn't anything
- another whiz interrupted his
thoughts. The bullet tore through
the sleeve of Joe's jacket but didn't
touch him. Joe fell back in the
canoe as though he had been hit.
The Indians supposed they had fin
ished the boy No more shots were
fired.
For fully fifteen minutes Joe
stayed in the bottom of the boat,
Then he slowly raised himself and
looked to the shore. No Indians in
sight. He took up his paddle and
set out again for the fort. He
reached it in "a short time, un-
molested.
"As soon as he was inside the
fort Joe told his story. Every man
and boy in the place got his rifle
and powder ready and stood at a
loop-hole.
1.-THE sun was just disappearing
when the settlers sighted Indians
at the edge OF the fort clearing.
The Indians attacked. But the
settlers were ready. After half an
hours battle, the Indians gave up.
Joe had saved the fort"

| the country would come for him
He would take good care of him.
Buff simply couldn't get over his
habit of rushing out and swapping
at strangers.
Little Mildred sat at the table
with the tears running down her
cheeks, and after while when Buff
wandered in and put his head up
against Don's arm, Don gulped and
got I'D from the table.
A few evenings after the depart
ure Of Buff, Don had been out to a
rather late. AS he came toward
club meeting and was coming home
the porch, he noticed a dark object
on the stairs. He hurried up, and
in another minute he was hugging
the excited Buff and trying to keep
him from barking.
The dog had evidently Just come
in. If he could put him away some
where safely over night, maybe in
the morning Mr. Allen would listen
to an argument for letting Buff
stay.
So he led the dog out to the alley
which ran back of their lot. A lit
tie ways down it was an old barn,
now empty. He tied Buff up, pat
ted him and went back to the
house.
Somehow at breakfast, he didn't
have the courage to mention Buff.
His father had always fused about
having the dog and had forbidden
them to say anything about him.
At noon Mr.. Allen came home

to see Buff. He's gone. They can't

dollars to have him back"
Without a word, Don got up from
the table. When he came back he
collected the five dollars.

Mary's Fishing Trip

Mary's mother was going to
town and she was going to leave
Mary with Baby Dorothy. Mrs.
Smith, who was Mary's mothers
nearest neighbor, was going to stay
with Mary until her mother came
back from town.
Before her mother went away,
she said, Nov, Mary, don't make
any trouble for Mrs. Smith. and
take good care of Dorothy"
"All right, Mother" answered
Mary, II won't make any more mis-
chief than can be helped"
Then she kissed her mother
goodbye and she was gone.
MRS. Smith, may go down to
the creek and watch the fish,"
"You may if you don't fall in"
"All right" said Mary, and she
ran away as fast as she could.
When she got there she sat down
on the bank to rest. The grass was
wet and Mary was sleepy and she
sat down and fell asleep.
The bank on which she was
sitting was slippery and she slid
down the bank and into the water.
1t was lucky that some fisher
men on farther down the creek
saw her and jumped in after her
and brought her out on the bank.
When they brought her out they
let her fall on the ground with a
thump.

chair" said Mary. my but I'm

The Pirate Seven started out on
an overnight hike ON Friday OF
last week. That night when we
were sitting around the fire doing
nothing much Herb Woods sug
gested we tell stories. 'Ill tell
you pioneer and Indian story
Says Herb.
Sounds like good stuff" says I.
.SLet's hear it." So Herb started in.
In Pennsylvania in the early
pioneer days was settlement.
One late fall the pioneers got rea-
son to believe that the Indians
were planning to attack them. The
settlement was pretty well scat
tered, SO, for protection, the peo-
pie put up small log fort and ev-
erybody moved in.
For a couple of weeks the peo-
pie stayed in the fort and the
Indians didn't come. The fort was
small The weather was warm.
The settlers, not daring to venture
far from the stockade, became i'm
patient and restless.
II Among the settlers was a fam
lily named Miller. There was Mr..
and Mrs. Miller and Joe Miller,
nc years old. They moved into the
fort and then Mr.. Miller took a
horse and started for Philadelphia
for help.
B "One bright October morning
hoe Miller decided he wasn't going
10 spend the day in any stockade.
.Chestnuts ought to be about ready
for gathering. he figured. So he
planned to spend the day in the
woods gathering nuts, Indians or
no Indians
n BE careful. Joe,' says his
mother when he started out with
his rifle and an empty powder bag
for nuts. Joe promised, and said
he'd return before dark.
"Jee spent the whole day four
br five miles from the fort. He was
having grand time when he no
llced the sun was getting low I'd
better be hiking back thinks he.
But he hadn't gone more than ten
yards when there was a yell, a
of bushes and an Indian
in war-paint leaped out at him.
Joe was some surprised. But
NE didn't lose his wits. He swung
his gun over his head and landed
1t on the Indians. The gun broke
hnd the Indian toppled over, Joe
dropped the broken gun and ran.

DEBT REFUNDHNG
BILL APPROVED

WASHINGTON, Feb. Omitted
Press.) - President Harding today
signed the foreign debt refunding
bill within an hour after 1t reached
the White House.
A commission to be headed by Sec
retary OF the Treasury Mellon will
begin negotiations with the debtor
nations shortly for the refunding Of
the 100000. 900 debt. The com
mission to be composed Of FIVE mem
bers, is created by the bill.
The measure calls for a minimum
rate OF interest Of AZ per cent. and
provides that the obligations shall
mature not later than 1947. These
provisions we're opposed by the ad-
ministration on the ground that they
would impose embarrassing restric-
uons upon the executive but Hard
ing and Mellon finally approved
them.
