one knew not what!
Oh, it was something to talk
about, all right, all right!
Tod West had been in and out,
saying little, going into long, heat
ed but confidential talks with the
sheriff.
And now came young Logan De-
Priest, walking across the trestle
from Downer's. He was lad with
mild blue eyes and pimples on his
face and fuzz on his chin.
"Well, Logan, you got it all set
tied over there?" wag asked.
Dam right! DAM right we
have!" the youth replied impor-

Something about his manner
tugged at the interest Of those who
heard and saw, and yet Logan
was not to be taken seriously.

"A lot you know!"
'Betcha I know more'n any of

others lost their smiles and drew
closer.
"Betcha two million! You know

The scoffers, now, were even edg-

from behind young DePriest: Tod
West, this, halted in his evident
intent to enter the store, looking,
listening.
"Well, this mornin' them detec-

tinued. "'Nd what'd they do?"
Cunningly, he looked about, enjoy

 Schefter said this strain of try ing to run a business that is every bodys business is too much for me"
 Sports writers recently quoted fans as being irate at the owners action in releasing Bishop, who has been ill and was unable to hold down second base which Schefter said his contract required him to do.
 The magnate said Bill Sweeney, first Sacker, is under contract for the managerial post now and that it would be impossible to reinstate Bishop, who has appealed to Base ball Commissioner Landis.
 They talk about Max Bishop being a sick man-what about me? I've been i'll for the last year from the strain" Schefter. said.

 The public just doesn't seem to the difference between the Portland baseball club today and at the end of 1884, when it had reached about as low point as any ball club ever did in Class A. So say right now to the gentlemen who seem so interested in how the ball club should be run, come on, make me an offer.

RANGER REPORTS SEASON LATE IN
 ISLAND DISTRICT

The season is late in this dis trict, according to District Ranger w. A. Chipperfield, who returned to his Juneau headquarters yesterday aboard the Ranger TX after an ex- tensive inspection trip to various Forest Service projects around Bar anof and Chichagof Islands. This, he said, is particularly noticeable in the movement of Dolly Vardens up stream. The run so far has been especially light. Bears, too, are late in coming out due to the late sea- son.
 The Ranger reported a Forest Service crew has started work at the head of Silver Bay on trail to Redoubt Lake, a distance of about four miles.
 Gerald Banta, foreman of the eco crew at Sitkoh bay, was in yes terday but returned immediately to camp where portage is being built

Hitler is the most thoroughly un-

The colossal vitality and the docile

helpful quality that non-d0ctor
shoes do not have.
The population Of Great Britain
is about two-thirds Of ours. It
would be natural to assume, then,
that if these special shoes are nee
essary for the health of the
feet, Great Britain would have at
least hundred arch support shoes
and fifty special Doctor" shoes.
The facts are that their shoe man.
ufacturers list exactly one arch
support brand and no special DOC
tor brand of shoe.
Undoubtedly arch supports are
necessary in many instances, and
undoubtedly also special shoes are
necessary for special foot troubles
and unbalances, but for most feet
the arch supports are weakening
to foot which could be made
strong by exercise and use. And it
stands to reason that if a person
needs a special Doctor" shoe, he
will certainly want one fitted to
his needs, not one turned out
wholesale for fixed type of foot.
Foot's Muscular Organ
The foot is not simply a collec-
ton of bones to support the body;
