Then why didn't she have dates like
other girls?
Just this very morning 14-year-old
brother Bub had referred to her as
his spinster sister. And Dan, her be-
loved older brother and best friend,
had wounded her pride by saying,
'Looks like you're going to be the
old maid of the family, Jo.''
JOS eyes wandered aimlessly over
the display in the window before her.
Photographs, photographs of smiling
young men, photographs OF we'd
dings-salt on the open woundl Sud
denly she gave her parasol joyous
twirl. Here was an idea! Revenge
on her brothers, too. If she could
Just carry it out!
She critically regarded the pictures
and finally decided which she liked
best. A few moments later she came
out of the shop with the photo tucked
under her arm.
That night after dinner 10, clad
in q dainty new gown, announced
to an astoniShed family that she had
q date and slipped out into the twi-
light.
The next morning she oversight.
Her family were at breakfast when
she came down; they had been talking
about her, she knew.
"Well, what's his name?" Dan began
abruptly. where's he hve?"
His name is Jon Costello" Joe
Announced smoothly.
Bub gave disgusted snort. Sounds
like a movie actor!"
He is a-er-a broker"
'When do we meet him?" Dan
asked, his eyes twinkling.
Here was the opportunity 10 had
awaited.
"I have his picture" she announced
calmly. "Tll run up and get It,"
She left her family seated in open
mcuthed amazement.
Upon her dressing table was the
photograph which had only recently
stared at her from the store window
on Main street. Grasping it, 10 hur-
ried downstairs again.
"This-Jon Costello?" Dan gasped.
"Why, /"
"Oh, you don't know him?" 10 tried
to speak naturally.
"Oh, no! Mol" Dan assured her
hastily, but her eyes fell under his
quizzical glance.
During the weeks that followed 10
was home very little. OF course, even
dod ond Y,onvnSia didn't know that
she spent most of the time at Aunt
Martha's house. The boys, it seemed,
were also completely deceived.
One day late in July Dan, wildly
waving an envelope, rushed into the
kitchen where his mother and 10
were baking pies. "A letter from
Pokeyl" he cried.
"Pokey?" Joe asked with a smile.
"Charles Pokeman Chancery, the

by the senate Thursday.

to q a to a defeat, and q death

TWO FOREST AREAS
PURCHASED IN n. D,
One Unit in McHsnry. 6ottinsau
and Pierce Counties Con.
tains 200, 900 Acres

Washington. March 8.-@-Twu
new national forest purchase units
were established In North Dakota
Thursday by the forest reservation
commission.
One contains 100000 acres in Nc
Henry. Bottineau and Pierce counties.
The other consists Of 10000 acres on
the watershed Of the Red river in
Ransom and Richland counties. The
forest service estimated 400 families
would be aided through part-time la
Dor in restoring the areas.
When the larger Of the two new
North Dakota purchase units Is &C
quired. it Is proposed to plant most Of
the area to such trees as ponderosa
pine, red cedar, cottonwood, aspen,
blackberry and white elm.
Besides providing part-tine labor
In restoration Of the area the large
unit. the forest service said, also has
possibilities for recreational develop
ment and as range for deer. Hun
garian partridges and pheasants. It
lies on the watershed Of the Assini-
boine and Red river systems, and Is
near the northern end Of the great
plains shelterbelt project.
Areas purchased in the smaller unit
will be planted to trees similar to
those In the larger area. The forest
service said the area was close to
rather large populations and has I'M
portant recreational values, and that
its rehabilitation and the planting Of
new forests stands was expected to
insure . future supply Of timber and
wood for small local industries.
