Thanks to careful driving, keeping
the front wheels on the road while
negotiating corduroy bridg es
through overflow country, we
bumped along at 30 miles an hour
and about p. m. made the front
fence Of what DR.. Dafoe calls the
Dionne hospital. "
'"The two provincial police, who
keep the line moving and see that
the roads are kept open, saw, right
away that we had come to.see the
quints, and not the crowd. y From
which way, Jack?' asked one Of
them. 'Hamilton's Landing, Lake
McGreggor, with Grand Lake just
over. the hill. Three hundred miles
to the south, officer, the best bass
water in Quebec. These ladies with
me are my kinfolk,' says I. And
can we see the quints?' Sure thing.
Keep your eyes on the glass-fronted
veranda, where they show up when
the notion takes them. A'good look
free Of charge if you have pa
tience.'"
Pa Dionne Gets Fan Mail.
My old guide did another suspen-.
der stretch, firing both barrels in
unison. when you stop to think
that the Canadian kids are the only
ones out Of IS sets Of quintuplets
born during the last 500 years that
came through Karin and are still
alive" continued Mr.. Hamilton,
"why wouldn't I stick around to
have an eyeful?"
"Man alive!" exclaimed the guide
from Lake MacGreggor, and Grand,
just over the hill, II saw them come
out in ones, tWos and-I was about
to say threes, but you know what

in sight. Mind you, the windows,
some new-fangled patent, allows
people outside to see in but the
quints can't see out. Good idea,
that. Five girls at any age couldn't
take it without blowing up. I'm the
father Of four-born one at a time
and know. sure do know"
A forward gesture from the arm
pit out, a crack like a pistol shot
and Mr.. Hamilton continued, ut
was good business for the govern
ment to take over the job of bring
ing those girls up under DR.. Dafoe,
leaving Mr.. and Mrs. Dionne time
to raise the kids they have left.
They have six other singlets living,
nine-pounder following the quints,
who weighed, the whole five of
them, less than ten pounds at
birth"
More suspender artillery from
Mr.. Hamilton. "Not yet three years
Of age, they are now worth close to
a million dollars. Old man Dionne
gets a bigger fan mail than Clark
Gable. At SO cents throw, he
drags down $500 week for his sig
nature, while Mrs. Dionne, the
most-talked-abou mother in the
world, is in the money dozen diff
ferent ways. I'll say it's coming to
her."

an exclamation from Don Paco.

to demand an explanation.

Il don't blame them. Perhaps they would
have been safer here. But who knows? When
madness seizes the human heart none of us
can be sure of safety except in DEATH"
He turned into one of the rooms and drew
out two chairs. Mary laid her hat and hand
bag aside and sank back with quivering
sigh Of relief. They sat side by side, looking
out into the shadowy stiffness where only the
burbling water moved. Twice a screaming
bullet passed high overhead and one other

house itself. With the aid of her handbag she
freshened herself to normal, and it was
amazing how the mere following of routine
served to restore poise after tragedy.
She stepped out to find Don Paoo waiting
for her. He drew her into an imposing dining
room where food was displayed at one end of
ponderous table. Mara had disappeared and
they served themselves in silence beneath the
soft light of candles. Gradually Mary felt
glow akin to content steal through her veins.
"You have been good to me, Don Paoo, she
murmured. MAY ask one further favor?"

Borah's Entry in Ohio Race
 Has Tactical Significance

his first concern is the breaking down of the pres e n t leadership, which he regards as reactionary. That fits in exactly with his hesi- tant conduct his determination not to go into states where he feels the sort of verdict he is seeking would be foreclosed.
 His lingering progress toward an actual announcement obviously has not resembled the usual coyness of ] Presidential aspirants. His tentative and cautious footsteps have been more like those of a wise pedestrian crossing an ice-covered street in traffic.
 A candidate who expects to be nominated must go out after dele fgates wherever there is any outside chance of gathering in even few. MT. Borah has had long experience in politics, and must know the diff faculties which stand between him and the nomination. He chooses to strike only where the psychological effect promises to be greatest. Convention Possibilities
 Whatever the immediate effect of the Ohio venture, by way of forcing the hands of other candidates, it is | the more remote possibilities of which the Senator obviously is think ing.
 If he wins in Ohio, but has too small a total of delegate strength to make him a serious contender for the nomination, what will be his role in the convention?
 Many guesses are possible, but the circumstances keep bringing back to mind a scene in another national convention many years ago. At Bal timore. in 1912, the leading candi- date in a deadlock was Champ Clark In single dramatic speech, Will liam Jennings Bryan blasted forever Clarks vision of the White House The burden of that speech was that Clark had the support of Wall Street
 Is Borah preparing, similarly, tc assume the mantle of spokesman for the rank and file, so that he can up- set the chances of some other can didate? And if so, what candidate
The Daily Alaska empire., 1936-02-21
By BYRON PRICE ~e Chief of Bureau, The Associated % Press, Washington

There are special reasons why the , dominant leaders of the Republican party are deeply interested, indeed, n Senator Borahs decision to enter the Presidential primary in Ohio.
 Ii 1t merely were a question of ' delegateS-of few votes. more or 2 less, in the national convention-no one would be greatly concerned. But ! what MT. Borah is after amounts to a great deal more than that. Ohio is proud state in Republican tradition. This year it will enter tain, at Cleveland, the National Convention. It comands almost the largest bloc of electoral votes in that mid-western sector where many politicians believe the election of 1856 will be decided.
 Against that background MT. Bor- ah proposes to submit to a popular test his demand that the present leadership of the Party be repudiated by the rank and file.
 Pafllcularly, he asks for a popular verdict against the convention plans of the old-line leaders. These plans, as announced in the various states. contemplate the selection of unin- structed delegations in the east and midwest, including Ohio, in suffi- cient numbers to hold the balance of power with respect to the nomina- ! tion.
 A Psychological Blow Suppose Borah wins his case at the . hands of the Republican voters oi that crucial state What becomes ot the plans of the leaders, morally and psychologically and what becomes of their leadership?
 The answer need not involve, ex- cept incidentally, the much dis cussed question whether Boran ser iously is a candidate, or whether he has any idea he can be nominated
 He has said quite directly that
