CHAPTER TWO

MIKE SCANLAN didn't die. Nor
1V1 did he lose the sturdy legs
that mad meant living, life itself,
to him. DR.. Luke's practiced and
sensitive fingers served for X-ray,
and Mike was soon encased in two
mummy-like casts up to the hips.
Far into the night worked DR.. Luke,
to get Mike comfortably installed in
his boarding house.
To soften the blow of missing
the morrows boat and the dreary
prospect of long months in bed in
stead, there was the promise of a
small radio. What if Mikes pay
for the season was scarcely enough
to pay for his board and keep for
the winter, let alone to pay DR.. Luke
Tor saving his life and his legs? The
radio would be there anyway. DR..
Luke would be the only one who
could tell you how it got there. But
It's not likely that he would.
So by the following day, Mike
Seaman was as happy as a man
with both legs in casts can be. He
could hear the steamer whistle
echoing across the hills. For the
river boat, North Star" waits for
no man when she sails from Moose
town on her last trip in autumn to
the southland. She dares not wait.
Soon, all too soon, the winter de-
sends, and Moosetown is isolated,
the waters frozen. the roads we'll
nigh impossible except for sleighs
and dog teams.
The North Stars" whistle drew
to the boat-landing everybody who
could walk at all Three or four
1umbermen on deck, all a little
drunk, were working away at bar
room harmony that was less accu-
rate than heartfelt. Catcalls, whis-
ties and boos greeted the effort.
CONSTABLE OGDEN was there,
~ his jaw doubly swollen by the
recent tooth extraction and a fresh
ouid of plug" He had a couple of
Indians in tow, with claims against
one of the lumbermen leaving on
the boat. Dr. Luke and Nurse Ken
nedy, intent on placing last-minute
orders for precious medical supplies,
were at the purser's window.
Bring us back some aspirin" re-
minded Nurse Kennedy, running her
finger down long list.
How much?" inquired the purser.
About bushel."
And iodine :"
How much?"
about a gallon :. :"
A lumberman elbowed his way up
to DR.. Luke.
Il was looking for you, Doc.
Wanted to pay you"
Down into breeches pocket went a
grimy hand. emerging with several
greasy bills. and a handful of small
silver.
"Five-sixty, five eighty-five, five
ninety-five, ski" he counted as the
coins dropped
That all you got, son?" inquired
DR.. Luke, with wry smile.
The youth grinned. Just made
it, didn't I, Doc?" he commented.
With a furtive look about him.
DR.. Luke pressed the money quickly
into the grimy hand. Keep it," he
whispered. You'll need it out
side Pay me next year." And sud-
denly the doctor had vanished into

MAKE 1T A HAPPY NEW YEAR

Among the things which distinguished
the year 1885 was the tremendous and un-
precedented interest manifested in the
traffic safety problem.
This awakening to the gravity of the
accident evil seized the nation with con-
siderable force during the second half of
the year. 1t has yet scarcely gone beyond
country seems to be ready for a cold
shower of facing the facts, and then to
grid for concerted action. AS has been
consistently maintained, the real hope for
achieving automobile safety resides in
aroused public opinion. ~
One way to help end the automobile
accident carnage is for each individual to
make a sincere New Years resolution con-
corning his conduct as a motorist or pedes-
trian. The resolution might be based on
six principles offered by the National
Bureau of Casualty and Surety Under
writer's:
l. COurtesy-to drive and to walk
with consideration for others in mind.
2. Care-to drive and walk with the
care that means safety for all.
3. Knowledge-to learn and under
stand thoroughly the traffic laws and rules
of the state and community in which we
drive and walk.
a. Skill-to improve our mastery of
the skills which make the good driver.
5. Sense-to use common sense in
the many situations encountered when driv-
ing and walking, that are not covered by
laws or copybook maxims.
6. Cooperation-to cooperate, as an
individual driver or pedestrian, with the
organized efforts to make driving and
walking everywhere safe.
Such a resolution rigidly adhered to
for whole year by many persons would
produce such salutary benefits, and those
benefits would be so apparent, that there
would be no question of the resolution be-
ing renewed for more Happy New Years.

DANGER IN JAPAN

Charging that Japan had ambitions
similar to those of the former KAISER y
Senator Key Pittman, Democratic Chair
man of the Senate Foreign Relations Com
mittee, says that it is common knowledge
that the present militaristic government of
Japan plans conquest of the entire world"
Sooner or later" said Senator Pitt
man." the United States will be faced with
the necessity of fighting for its very exist
ence, and if we wait too long the outcome
will be much more doubtful. We either
can continue to retreat in the face of
Japan'S conquest or decide where to make
our stand and make it there
Japan, said the Nevada Senator,
counts on England's involvement in Europe
and the pacifist sentiment in the United
States to keep these two countries from in
terfering There are only two things
Japan is afraid of and those are the navies
of Great Britain and the United States. II
it should happen that these navies find it
necessary to maneuver in the Pacific near
Japan at about the same time, Japan
would listen to reason without a shot be-
ing fired or life being lost"
Senator Pittman pointed out that the
Nine Power Treaty, guaranteeing Chinese
integrity, signed by Japan, the United
States and Great Britain, has been violated
several times by Japan. "1t is time some
body informed the people of this nation of
the danger. Once Japan gains full con-
troll of China it will be the most powerful
nation in the world and will be able to
carry out its dreams of conquest"

CIT DOESN'T MATTER"

'It doesn't matter whose son you are, y
said Joseph Stain last week to a young
farmer from the mines of Russia, 'but who
and what you are and how you work
The sentence is good advice for all be-
levers in democracy but especially sig
nificant because the young man told the
Soviet dictator, Il am the son of a kulak."
These comparatively wealthy land
owners have been the object of much per
secution in Russia, where their lands have
been appropriated and scattered among
the loyal communists. Toward them, as a
group the ruling class of present day Rus
STA have exhibited considerable hatred.
Stains remarks came as group of
workers assembled in Moscow as the
guests of the government to receive public
praise for high production records. 1t
seems to mark an end to some of the bitter
ness in the intense class struggle in Soviet
land.

E. w. Scripps, who made millions
from newspapers, expressed his financial
philosophy in a single sentence-''No man
can control his income but every man can
control his outgo." No man can go broke
in following this policy. Too many people
mortgage their future and then have a
hard time catching up, and time is re-
lentless-it waits for no man. It is a
wholesome practice to maintain balanced
budget, and that goes for nations, too.
