them. By cutting cord wood in the
fall they had saved up a few dol

with a stove and a bed in it. Pan
cakes were their standby, but to-

run short of eggs.
Keeping the stove going was
quite a problem Without coal it

Communist Recruiting Drive
Shows Good Prospects

The short recruiting drive of the
Plentywood section of the Com
munist party is showing good
promise, according to statement
of the party section committee.
The drive was started two weeks
ago when the section membership
meeting held at Dagmar pledged
itself to bring 20 new members
into the party by Jan. 1. Several
members have already been secur-
ed by different units of the party
and since there is a large number
Of Communist sympathizers in the
county, men and women who are
heartily in sympathy with the aims
Of the party, who understand its
aims and some Of the basic prin-
ciples, it win not be hard to fun
fill the pledge Of getting 20 new
members by Jan. 1, the section or
ganizer declares.

A Boy in Spain

Pedro rolled uneaSiiy in his sleep
md snuggled closer to his COM
anion, stretched out beside him.
But he could not sleep. His dreams
were wild and scary, and he woke
up with a start, his heart humping
loudly. He turned on his back and
studied the distant blue stars and
tried to figure out how long it must
be till daylight. His eyes wandered
over the other sleepers, covered
With blankets, their guns lying
alongside. There were workers from
the hill villages. They were mostly
miners from the broad, rich coal
fields that spread for many miles
around. Tonight they were hiding
in a deep ravine that had once
been quarry but was now over
grown with low bushes.
Pedro thought back over the past
few weeks and the things that had
happened so fast that a whole year
seemed to be lived in a single day.
He remembered that night when
his father rushed into their little
hut, picked up bite Of food, and
was gone, and Pedro after him
After all, Pedro was fourteen and

he felt that they heaped their troubles

sounded heavy, final, like the footsteps
of man who had too mitch to do to

her eyes cleared of the mist in them
and she saw Roddy, half dressed,
