that couldn't tell whether it was
old or young man or woman.
The man with the goatee turned to
the other and said something, which.
of course, couldn't catch. The
shrouded figure made an impuisive
movement as if to rise from the seat,
and I distinctly saw the man whose
eyes were haunting me, push it back
with an outstretched, sinewy arm.
Then he spoke again, rapidly. impul
sively, almost angry. I could only
catch the tones, but there was the
same haunting familiarity about the
mans voice that I had seen in his
eyes.
He didn't turn his face again towards
ne. Indeed, he carefully kept his
back turned, mad I saw him turn up
the collar of the rather foreign looking
topcoat ne wore in an evident attempt
to conceal as much of his head and
face s possible.
Evidently the sight of me had
alarmed him as much as the recogni-
ton of his eyes had frightened me.
That he was as relieved as I when
the blockade suddenly came 70 an end
and our taxis drew away from each
other l was very sure.
But the memory of his eyes and his
evident fear of my recognizing him
accompanied me all the rest OF my
now uneventful journey to the Penn
sylvania station. In one way it was a
good thing for me. In my puzzled Won
der as to the identity of the stranger
l forgot my nervous fears as to my
possible failure to interpret Mr..
brakes directions. recalling them only

on which his father was waiting for
him.
''Well. the two men realized that all
they could do now was wait and hope
that some vessel would pass and pick
them up. When the fishermen had
left their motorboat to go on the
island they had taken a large part of
their catch of fish with Them, and so
they knew they wouldn't be without
food for a few days, at least. But
that's all they had-just food, and
their little. frail row boat.
For three days and nights they
were narooned on that island
marooned, fellers. on an island in Lake
Erie. Didn't know it was as big as
that, did you?
Smoke Signals Bring a Rescuer
''They made smoke signals to at
tract vessels that might be passing,
but no vessels passed. The two men
were about to give up when in the
distance they saw the outline of a
cargo boat. 1t was travelling so that
it would pass close to the island.
1.-THE cargo boat saw the signals.
She pulled up near the island. A
small life boat was sent ashore. But
it was impossible for the boa to carry
away more than one of the fishermen.
And the older man decided to stay on
the island and eat fish while his son
went ahead on the freighter to lake
side port where he got a tug that
could stand up against the stormy
waters. Then he went back after his
dad.
That's how big the Great Lakes

"oh, dear, I do wish I had curly hair
like Beuiah Rowe" sighed Helen as
she jerked the comb through her
straight black locks. Her hair is 30

Just then Helen spied her mothers

she exclaimed. 81 never thought Of
that. I'll curl 1t, of course"
The next morning Helen's alarm
went off earlier than usual. She
crawled out Of her nice warm bed and
worked hard frizzing and crimping her
beautiful hair till it satisfied her crit
ical eye. Then, not daring to put on
her hat for fear she would nauss the
hair. she started off for school.
Why, Helen, whatever have you
done to your hair?'' the girls cried as
she met them on the corner. You

Helen regarded Bob in a superior
manner. That shows how much boys

Huh, do they?" he asked. IT heard
Grace ask Lucy If she didn't think
you looked a mess with your hair all

i STRANGER IN A
STRANGE LAND

A female deer strayed into this
locality and was first seen at the
Berding Island about ten days ago
and last Friday morning made her
appearance at the Wells orchard 3
miles east Of town, where it was re-
ported she was accompanied by a
four-pcint buck. However, the
buck seemed to have disappeared.
The doe after feeding quite at home
for some time among the tres, grace
fully Ieaped the fence to investigate
matters around the Earnest Kirk
home, then strolled down to the H.
z. Golden ranch and the Andy Nickel
son place, where at both places
came within few rods of the house.
After satisfying her curiousity in that
neighborhood made her way through
the fields toward the Payette river.
She may be making retreat to safe
ty where she is protected IL months
in the year or just returning the un-
welcome call of the hunters who
have recently returned from her ma
tive land rejoicing over their legal
share of venison.
This beautiful creature is strang-
er in strange land and should re-
ceive a welcome by the people and
if not molested will in all probabili-
ties remain quite at home in the
brush along the river. Deputy Game
Warden Geo. Boor has already taken
matter up in her behalf and warned
the people of the penalty for killing
her in Payette county.
