HITLER BANS
VETS UNIT
JEAN BOARDMA,

BERLIN, Aug. 8 G.N.SO.-The
expected death knell of the Steel
Helmets, war veterans organiza-
ton, was sounded today coincident
with an outburst of violence in
which Hitler youths were severely
beaten.
Striking at the heart Of the long
honored organization in a strong
hold formerly presided over by the
late President Paul Won linden
burg, the Nazi secret state police
dissolved the Steel Helmets provin-
cial organizations in Pommerania,
Brandenburg, Berlin and along the
Polish border.
Property COnfiScated
The Reich temporarily confisca-
ted all of the Steel Helmets prop
erty.
An official announce m e n t
charged the Steel Helmets had be-
come "a hotbed of oppositional and
reactionary forces" and added
they had been dissolved "in the in
terest of maintenance of public
order and safety"
The dissolution order charged
local veteran leaders partly ig-
nored and partly sabotaged gov
eminent DEGREES, and that they
had accepted as members Marx
lists and other enemies Of the Nazi
regime"
Backbone Broken
With these units dissolved, little
was left of the veterans organiza-
ton, and the remaining groups
were expected to be wiped out as
quickly as possible.
In striking in Northeastern
Germany, the government broke
the backbone of the Steel Hell
NETS, whose main support was de-
rived from the former Junkers,
Monarchists and Nationalist Of
this locality.
Passing of the Steel Helmets,
forewarned over the weekend by
the resignation of Field Marshal
August Won MackenSen from their
ranks, marked Nazi elimination of
one Of the final veStiges Of the
older Germany.

 I had never seen, never even vis- ualized anything so beautiful.
 A loud shriek from the big whistle. a slow crunching and grinding of brakes, and our train came to a stop. Uncle Jerry. rosy and smiling, stood waiting upon the platform, giving dad. mother. Helen and myself a true western welcome.
 Aunt Emma is all excited about your coming" he beamed.
 A short drive through wonder land of beauty, and the big sprawl ing ranch house came in sight. Aunt Emma stood in the doorway, and a cowboy, who was grooming his pony looked curiously at us.
 All was hustle and excitement hurry and preparation. Even the horses and ponies in the corral seem- ed excited, as if they sensed some thing in the air The afternoon and evening went by on wings.
 Christmas morning dawned upor a world that looked even loveliel than it had yesterday. A million jewels hung on bush and tree, z sky of turquoise stretched itself ou across the snow covered mountains and valleys.

THAT 25TH OF
 DECEMBER

It is five o'clock on Christmas morning. You know it is Christmas because Sister and Junior are play ing a little game of hopping on one foot and shouting the fact loudly in your left ear and by half opening one eye you can see that the clock says it is five am. No, the pillow isn't thick enough to shut out the song the darlings are singing about Santa Claus and his merry little workmen. You get up and sleepily follow the children downstairs trying to think up answers to-"Hcw did Santa get out of the furnace? Would he get dirty? How can he get all over the world in one night?" Who started this business of reindeer and Santa Claus anyway?
 Wiping a steamy face, you have been in the kitchen all day, you see that all of your relatives are here. Dinner goes off all right except for one little episode in which Daddy has to explain to Junior that there are cnly two drumsticks in a turkey and these must be given to cousin Susie and Willie, and minor discus sions as to who gets white or dark meat and what makes the pudding so soggy
 After dinner, as you rescue Baby from sampling one of those cute little red balls on the tree, you look at the clock and think. Such a LOVELY Chreistmas."

turkey and dressing on big blue platter. a huge, mound of snowy po- tatoes. native vegetables and relish es. tempting pieces of mince and pumpkin pie And best of all, an appetite that only the mountains can give.
 A hundred things to see during the afternoon, the horses and ponies, the ranch equipment, the silver fox farm that Uncle Jerry had started, and a special show the dowboys put on for our benefit.
 Food again in the evening, and after, a happy time around the fire. The cowboys standing around the piano. where Helen played the old Christmas carols, their lusty voices joining in the beautiful words. I thought of the beautiful setting out side as they sang:

 I stole outside for few moments as they went on to the next lines. A new moon was sending it's silvery light down upon the world, million stars added their smaller gleam. And around me I felt the faint, mysterious noises of night in the open places, the stirring of unseen, unknown things. My lips and heart joined in the words that floated out from ; the warm, lamp-lit room. Silent Night, Holy Night
 Shepherds quake at the sight!
 Glories stream from Heaven afar
 Heavenly hosts sing Alleluja; | Christ, the Savious is born! I have spent many happy and memorable Christmas, but never one as wonderful, as unforgettable as this Christmas spent in the Rockies.

 Now was his chance. Did he dare attack? The tree, gaudy with bells and tinsel. seemed to mock him.
 Cautiously, Toots jumped up on the sofa, Snlffed at an extended bough A slight breeze stirred, and golden bird in the branches quiv- cred. Toots crouched and sprang.
 The tree went down with swish and was ablaze in moment. Toots was surprised and terrified. He clawed at the door, and howled to heaven.
 His noise brought the family, and the blaze was soon put out, but not before considerable damage had beer done. The tree was heap of smoul- dering blackened limbs.

 The parlor was locked up, and Toots' stool and cushion moved to the kitchen underneath the table. Cook was basting the turkey. A plate of noodles was offered him, but Toots only sniffed He was tired. He found his place under the table and clawed the pillow into shape. He twisted and scratched. He licked as fur into place. He settled down.
 At peace with the world, Toots lay on his very own pillow and slept. From under one paw dangled a piece of red ribbon
