Senator Caraway said that when the
bill appropriating $20,00000 for the
relief of tha Russians was up in the
House for consideration in November,
1919, Representative Wood of Indiana
moved to recommit the bill because it
purposed to handle the fund through a
Federal agency. Mr.. Wood, he said
moved to have the fund expended by
the Red Cross. For that motion. Sena-

Tilson and Representative Smell voted

Star for Every State

Since the admission of New Mex
leo and Arizona into the Union in
1912, our flag has borne As stars.
With the addition of two more stars
for these two states, it was neceS-
sary to rearrange the position of all
stars in the flag. In that year Presi-
dent Taft issued an Executive order
providing for the specific arrange
ment of the stars in the flag, and
also designating one for each state.
Beginning at the upper left corner
and following each row from left to
right, the stars represent the states
in the order in which they ratified
the Constitution (for the first 13
states) or were admitted to the
Union.
Here is the pattern of the star
field, with the name of the state sub
stituted for each star:

vania, New Jersey, Georgia, Con-
necticut, Massachusetts,, Maryland,

broken spirits, but they did not

apathy. He tried to hate once
more. He repeated TO himself
many times that the English and
their Indians were responsible for
the tragedies which had befallen
his loved ones But he could not rise
to the passion for vengeance. He
wanted to fight, he wanted to see
the English and their allies over
wheImed, but his emotions were
as dull as they were implacable.
They burned with a fatalistic even
ness which neither triumph nor
defeat could raise to great heights
or lower TO the depths they had
plumbed. Death could never stir
him again as ii had already stirred
him, no shambles could sicken him

George scout in time to be cap
tured by Rogers and his rangers
on Christmas eve of 1856. He
escaped in January and was back
at Fort Carlton early in Febru-
ary, when he learned that Paul
Tache had been one of the French
officers at Oswego. and that he had
been killed. Jeems felt a pang of
regret. Lately he had been think
ing of Paul Tache and of Toi-
nette's mother. wondering what
their attitude would be when some
day he told them what had hap
pened after the massacre at Ton
teur manor.
There is no letter of informa-
tion which covers the lapse in
Jeems' military history between
February and August Of 1857. at
which time he was present at thu
capture OF Fort William Henry, or
Fort George, and witnessed the
massacre of its English garrison
by uncomfortable French Indians
led by the Abenakis. Here Jeems
must have experienced an unusual
shock, for soon after the killing.
when in their madness some of the
Indians were cooking English flesh
on spits and in kettles. he came
upon the black-frocked priest who
had accompanied the Abenakis and
found him to be the Jesuit. Pierre
Roubaud. who had made Toinette
his wife at ChenufSiO. Father
ROubaud was even then preparing
that eyewitness document which
was destined to become a valuable
part of Jesuit and French English
history. and whose hundred or
more age-yellowed pages, written
mostly by tOrchlight amid scenes
of horror, one may read in the
Jesuit archives at Quebec. The
priest saw Jeems, but so intent
was he upon his task and so great
were the changes wrought by six
teen months that he did not recog-
niZe him, and Jeems left his pres
ence without making himself
known.
After Fort William Henry and
the brilliant French successes
which preceded it, Jeems began to
feel the inevitable pressure which
is bound 70 crush the life from a
country that is enormously out
weighed by its antagonist. The
English colonies had put an end
to quarrels among themselves, and
million and half people were
set in motion against the eighty
thousand in New France, and be-
hind this inundating force were
powerful English armies and a still
more powerful English navy al.
ready inspired by Pitt and Wolfe.
AS Te Deums were sung because
of his victories, MontcaIm knew
that New France was lowering at
the brink of ruin, but at no time
did the outcome of his heroic con-
test press with greater certainty
upon himself than upon Jeems.

CHAPTER XII

a T NOON of the second day of
"A his journey Jeems came to
the village of Kanestio, whose
chief was MatoZee, or Yellow
Bear. He had Travelled the seven
ty miles in thirty hours, and was
determined to return as quickly,
for he was troubled deeply by the
thought that Toinette was alone
ar a time when the sentiment of
the Indians was turning against
them. Why he and not a tribal
runner had been sent to Yellow
Bear puzzled him, and the fact
that he bore a message of small
importance increased his uneasi-
ness.
He had scarcely reached Kan
estio when his weapons, a knife
and hatchet, were taken from him
and he was brought TO MatoZee.
This individual, who was killed at
Lake George the following year
and who was a boy in appearance
though the French held him
among the bravest fighters of the
Six Nations, informed Jeems that
he was a prisoner. He said Tia
Oga had defaulted In payment of
corn that was due, and Jeems was
to cover part of the obligation.
Matozee tersely explained the
agreement between the chiefs. If
Jeems attempted TO escape and
was caught by his warriors, he
would be killed; If by any chance
he succeeded in getting back to
Chenufsio, then he would answer
to Tiaoga with his life. A dead
line was drawn encircling the
tepee in which he was to live.
and he found himself under a
surveillance little less strict than
that accorded to a prisoner whose
fate was To he torture or death.
The fourth afternoon he per-
ceived an excited gathering of
women and children some distance
from him but paid no attention to
it. Depressed by fears which had
become unbearable, he was deter
mined to gain his freedom be-
fore another dawn. Increasing
cloudiness during the afternoon
and promise of storm with the
beginning of evening added to his
hopes for success. Thunder and
rain came with darkness, and he
feigned sleep at an early hour. II
was almost midnight when he sat
up and listened to the downpour.
He was about to rise to his feet,
certain that no Senecas would be
lying in the deluge, when he
heard the sodden rustic of the
skin flap TO the tepee as ii was
drawn back and some one entered.
In moment small voice whiS-
pered his name. Cold hands found
him as he held out his arms. He
felt child's drenched form.
Then came choking words half

minutes preceding her flight with
Hepsibah Adams, and no blackness
was so thick that it hid from him
the tortured faces of his wife and
his blind uncle as they beckOned
him to vengeance.
Even vengeance seemed futile
and inadequate Hope did not rise
in his breast. He had hoped when
he knew his mother was dead he
had hoped as he sought for life
among the ruins of TOnteur
manor. he had never quite given
up hope that his uncle was alive.
But now it was impossible for him
TO find that saving grace within
his mental reach. AS he went on,
he was slowly dispossessed of the
power TO hate, though every sinew
in his body was bent with i'm
placable resolution in its mission
of death. He would kill Tiaoga.
He would kill Shindas. There
would be only justice and no
