fire, making coffee slow to boil and
delaying the frying of bass he had
caught last evening.
Wavelets Kissed through the
rushes. The deep blue of the chan
mel was fecked with small white
caps. Young looked at the weather
and opined that the day would
keep clear, though the wind might
rise to half gale.
That is what Frank Bluejay

CHAPTER K

pY NOON of that Thursday,
- Kerry had his camp made on
an island a quarter mile Offshore
in Townline lake.
In the afternoon he and the dog
set out for the first hours Of cruis-
ing. Before sundown he padded
across to the cabin where he might
have stayed, went inside and looked
idly about and then returned to
camp.
They were alone. They had not
seen a soul, or heard a man-made
sound Of course, Frank Blue
jay, squatting in the alders, made
no sound except surly, impatient
grunt. That was when he raised
himself to one knee and sought to
cover the man in the canoe out
there with the worn rifle he car
ried, and found that the glare of
sunlight made the sight-bead show
large as an orange. When the
canoe was out of the glare, the
range was too long for certainty.
And the next morning when
Young set out a spanking breeze
blew. He kept to shoal water for
mile where the seas were not
dangerous so that he could square
away and lay a course into the
wind, thereby avoiding the chance
of swamping. By the time he was
out over the indigo depths again he
was far from the breed and once
more Bluejay dared not shoot. He
could have killed his man without

g Question:

For the picnic lunch basket, roll
out baking powder biscuit dough
about One-quarter-inch thick, cut with
biscuit cutter, spread thickly with
deviled ham, roll up and bake.
Umbrella plants should be literally
watered during the summer months.
When shoots begin to grow out at
base of plant, cut off to give plant
shape, and water freely.
To make radish roses, trim down
to an inch of the stem. Cut off root,
then cut down from the tip so that
the red part of radish stands out like
petals. Put in ice water for an hour
or two and petals will curl up.
Powdered borax added to the water
when washing fine white flannel,
helps to keep them soft.
A teaspoonful of baking powder
added to potatoes while they are be-
ing mashed, will make them light
and fluffy.
If table silver is placed in hot soap
suds Immediately after being used.
and dried, with a soft, clean cloth,
much of the work of polishing will
be saved.
Heat a lemon thoroughly before
squeezing and you will obtain nearly
double the quantity of juice.
Strong soap suds and hot water
will remove stains from pewter that
has become discolored and dark.
Half cupful Of milk added to
most soups just before serving,
makes them creamy and delicious.
To prevent lilac suckers growing
up around your lilac bush, cut cir
cular piece Of linoleum about two
feet wide, cut hole in middle for bush,
slit linoleum from edge to center
hole and place around bush.
Purchase seldom used spices in
small packages, as it is more econom-
ical since spices lose some of their
flavor when exposed to the air.

PLEA Of HOEPPELS
DENIED BY COURT
Request for Rehearing Is
Refused by High
Tribunal.

Former Representative Charles ].
Hoeppel of California and his son,
John H Hoeppel. failed today in their
final effort to escape a prison sentence
for conspiring to sell West Point
appointment. The Supreme Court
refused the request for rehearing Of
their case.
At present, the Hoeppels are await
ing the outcome of their legal fight in
Richmond to prevent efforts of ofl-
cials to return them to the District.
The court did not announce deci-
sions in any cases now pending, in
cluding that of Raymond Wood. who
is seeking to set aside conviction for
petty larceny returned against him by
a Police Court jury which included
several Government workers among its
members. Wood contends Federal
employees are not eligible for jury
service despite a recent congressional
statute authorizing them to serve.
The justices refused to grant the
petition for writ Of certiorari filed
by William Cogger, local attorney.
who is contesting the right Of the
District Commissioners to compel him
to file a schedule of his personal prop
erty for taxation purposes.
This victory for the District officials
is of considerable Importance, since
an adverse decision would have nulli-
fed their efforts in hundreds Of cases
to compel the filing Of delinquent
property schedules. Cogger contended,
unsuccessfully, that the order to file
the schedule was arbitrary and capri
cious, in violation of the fifth amend
ment because it did not extend to
