shoulders-they did not droop. The
rare glance still pierced you like a
sword thrust. The buffalo head, low
cred, menaced you; lifted, thrilled you.
Yet something had vanished.
"Where'd you join up, Yancey?"
"San Antonio. Leonard Woods
down there Colonel Wood now-and
young Roosevelt, lieutenant colonel.
He's been drilling the boys Most Of
them born on horse and weaned on
a Winchester. We're better equipped
than the regulars that have been at 1t
for years. Young Roosevelt's to thank
for that. They were all for issuing us
winter clothing, by Cd, to wear
through a summer campaign in the
tropics-these nincompoops in Wash
ington-and they'd have done it If 1t
hadn't been for him."
Southwest Davis spoke up from the
crowd. "That case, you'll be leaving
right soon, won't you? Week or So"
"Week!" echoed Yancey, and looked
at Sabra. II go back to San Antonio
tomorrow. The regiment leaves for
Tampa next day."
He had not told her before. Yet
she said nothing, gave no sign. She
had outfaced them with her pride and
her spirit for five years; she would
give them no satisfaction now. Five
years. One day. San Antonio-Tam-
Cuba-the Philippines-War. She
gave no sign. Curiously, the picture
that was passing in her mind was this
she saw herself, as though it were
some one she had known in the dim
far past, standing in the COOL shady
corridor of the mission school in Wich-
tia. She saw, through the open door
the oblong of Kansas sunshine and sky
and garden; there swept over her
again that wave of nostalgia she had
felt for the scene she was leaving; she
was shaken by terror of this strange
Indian country to which she was going
with her husband.

Frankfort Long Great City

Since the great trade routes Of the
Middle ages, Frankfort-on-the-Main
has played one of the most important
parts in the commercial activities Of
all Europe, and for many years was
the undisputed mistress of the interna-
tional money market. However, her
simplicity and quiet charm have not
been affected by her eminent position
in international affairs. She reflects
her ancient walls and towers in the
clear waters Of the Main with a mod
est dignity becoming beloved mon
arch. 1t is no wonder she beguiled
and endeared herself so keenly to the
heart Of Goethe, her native son, who
was inspired to write his famous opera
"Faust," in the first part Of which old
Frankfort breathes in almost every
verse.

Influence of Forests
Proved by Experiment

Forests influence the amount Of
moisture in the air as well as con-
serve the water in the ground. HUI.
Nudity records taken by the Pacific
Northwest forest experiment station
in a Douglas fir forest before and
after the trees were cut indicated a
remarkable difference in atmospheric
humidity, according to the forest
service, United States Department of
Agriculture.
In the forested area the relative
humidity fell below 35 per cent in
only one-third as many hours as in
an open area nearby. After the for
ested tract was cut over, the atmos-
phere above it appeared to become
almost as cry as that over the open
space. The tests showed that the re-
moval of the trees increased the
number Of hours during which the
humidity was below 35 per cent by
two and one-half times.

Los Angeles Founded by Spaniards Back in 1881
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

1t was into the hands Of Don Felipe
De Neve, who ruled as the Spanish
governor of the province Of California
in 1881, that Carlos LII, king of Spain,
intrusted the duty of founding Los
Angeles.
In order to establish in California
of the south new settlement, it is
related that Don Felipe came from the
capital at Monterey with military
escort to the mission of San Gabriel
late in August, 1871. The mission of
San Gabriel was already prosperous
and we'll established, having had its
beginning ten years before.
Don Felipe and his escort spent sew

More Uses for Cotton

Efforts to find new uses for cotton,
emphasized in connection with aid to
southern farmers, have found results
in plans for doorknobs, buttons, auto
mobile paint, combs, movie films,
writing paper, shock absorbers, wire
insulators and artificial feathers
made from the entire cotton plant,
except the roots. Revival of cotton
In it's textile form of dimities and
ginghams, has received impetus
through new markets in the form of

leather thong that, strike and coil and

reach, with it's venomous head, the
writhing, gbbering thing that lay
staring with eyes that protruded out
of all semblance to human features.
But as dusk came on the dew fell, and
the leather thong stretched a little

CHAPTER TX

Remember the Maine! To hi
with Spain!" You read this infam-

and on little white buttons pinned to
coat lapels or dress fronts. The Okla

army hats with broad, fiat brims and
peaked crowns.
Rough Riders! Here was some
thing that the Oklahoma country knew
and understood-tal lean, hard young
men who had practically been born
with horse under them and gun in
hand; riders, hunters, dead shots sun
burned, keen eyed, daredevil. Their
uniforms, worn with swagger, had
about them dashing something that
the other regiments lacked. And their
lieutenant colonel and leader was that
energetic, toothy young fellow who
was making something of stir in
New York state-Roosevelt, his name
was. Theodore Roosevelt.
Usage was shaken by chills and
fever; the hot spasms of patriotism,
the cold rigors Of virtue. One day the
good wives Of the community would
have meeting at which they ar
ranged for a home-cooked supper, with
coffee, to be served to this or that
regiment. Their features would soften
with sentiment, their bosoms heave
with patriotic pride. Next day, eyes
narrowed, lips forming straight line,
they met to condemn Dixie Lee and
her ilk, and to discuss ways and means
for Kidding the town of their contain
mating presence.
The existence of this woman in the
town had always been fostering sore

still lined Pawhuska avenue, the gam
