Down grade they went; down

He had crossed this noon the
old culvert, that had been under
water for so long. He thought he
remembered its condition but was
not sure.
He slowed as they reached the
creek bed, eased the front wheels
gingerly up on the water-bleached
corduroy, held his breath as the
cars weight slowly went on the
structure and then, as it gave and
cracked beneath them, gave the
motor everything it would take.
The spinning wheels found pur-
chase. They crawled forward,
Slowed sideways and finally, with

They were ahead of Bridger and
his companions, for certain, but
they had not gained a whole half
hour. The one tire, frayed by its
tussle on the culyert, went down
and they made the last two miles
of sand trail through the timber
on fiat, bouncing and rattling and
unable to make time even where
the sharp turns and deep ruts
might have permitted more speed.

Uncle Phil ~
Says: AM
It's Useless to Wish

Trouble not yourself with wishing
that things may be just as you would
have them; but be well pleased that
they should be just as they are, and
then you will be at ease.
Let conscience be your guide; but
don't be so presuming as to offer iU
for the guidance of other people.
In trying to make the world pleas
ant for other people, you find 90 per
cent Of them will reciprocate.
Don't Harbor Resentment
No person on earth can hope to
advance while harboring in the heart
a case of resentment toward his or
her service.
1t is a sensible man who doesn't
expect more than one expression of
gratitude for a favor.
Those who are "blunt" in their
statements aren't very sensitive and
they think others are not.

he was a-goin' to squeeze his wiz
zen in twixt!" !"
Young gave no heed to these obser-
vations or questions. He knew GER
tain serial numbers by heart. This
was one; a tWenty-dollar bill of a
certain series, crisp, unused.
For a moment he was impelled
to tell what had happened this
morning on Townline lake, but as
he drew breath to speak car brakes
squealed outside and Ezra Adams
voice, curiously strained, called
sharply:
Has anybody happened to see
Kerry Young?"
Kerry looked through the door
way at Ezra's face.
Hi, Ezra!" he called, starting
forward. whats up?"
AS quickly and as clearly as he
could. Ezra told the story that the
prisoner had told him.

tered Young. "Good God, Vests
hand is in this. Why, unless we
beat 'em to it. they're going to
make the rottenest kind of trouble
for Holt"
Those were his words and they
voiced an honest thought, but not
the thought uppermost in his mind.
The thing which hurt him with
the acuteness of physical pain was
this:
Before sundown, Nan Downer
was to see her lover led away to
Jail as a suspect in the murder of
her father.
And they've gone!" Ezra rasped.
"They crossed tn wagon bridge
just as I made the turn: Bridger

sure as you're born and"
"Get out of that seatw snapped
Young.
Roughly, he showed the old man
from beneath the wheel, and
stepped in to his place.
Hang on" said Kerry as,
throwing in the clutch, he spun the
car about, headed down stream,
lurched into the ruts leading to
the wagon bridge and shot across
with roar.
Upstream, then, past Mans mill,
behind headuarters and into the
road the sheriff's car had followed.
Youngs brows were drawn. He
divided this attention between the
theory forming in his mind and the
treacherous ruts and chuck holes
Of the road.
Listen, Ezra" he said, we've
got to get to that cabin before they
do, hold 'em off, see what's been
planted there, keep Stuart from ar
rest"
Their way was now through an
old burning where the ruts ran
straight and the chuck holes were
few. With foot throttle down to

"TeIlinp the Bees"

The expression, Telling the bees"
Is an old English custom, and exists
in sections of widely separated
areas such as Sussex and York
shire. The supposition is that when
a member of the family dies the
bees must be Informed Immediately
or they will leave the place and
seek another spot to make their
hive.

boldly affirmed st. Georges ito be
the most rich, beautiful, large and
secure harbOring river that the
world affordeth."
A few years later (1610, Capt.
John Smith was less attracted by
this eastertn part of the region he
named New England. Yet he saw
fit to say of this coast, '"Those bar
rem Isles are so furnished with good
woods, springs, fruit, fish and foule,
that it makes me think though the
coast be rocky, and thus alright
able, the valleys, plains and in
terror parts may well (notwith-
standing) be very fertile"
SO moderate a statement must
have been exceeded by other testi-
mony of that day, since only a
dozen years later another explorer
on the Maine coast, Capt. Christie
pher Levett, member of the Coun-
Gil of New England, felt it neces-
sary to "debunk" certain other trav-
elOgues, not preserved for the
modern reader. In reporting on
his voyage of 1924, he remarks !:
Nor will the Deare come when
they are called, or stand still and
look on man, until he shute him,
not knowing a man from a beast,
nor the fish leape into the kettle"
And he continues: 'But certain
ly there is fowle, Deare and Fish
enough for the taking if men be
diligent," which equally we'll de-
scribes the Maine of 1923 and 1885.
The discovery Of this part Of the
North Atlantic shore is usually
credited to John Cabot of Bristol,
on his second voyage in 1893.
The honor of making the first de-
tailed contributions to accurate geo.
graphic knowledge of Maine must,
however, be shared by a French
man and an Englishman: Samuel
de Champlain and the aforemen-
toned Captain Weymouth.
In 1905 both Champlain and Way
mouth were sailing along the Maine
coast. So near did they come to
meeting that in midsummer Cham
plain heard from an Indian chief
on the Kennebec of the presence
of an English ship ten leagues to
the eastward, which was undoubt.

angel.
The race was on between the
French and the English; and the
Maine region was destined to be
eventful borderland for a century
and half in the contest for con-
troll between New England and
New France.

Settled by Sieur de Monts.

The first settlement in Maine was
made by Sieur de Monts, who In
1903 had obtained from the king
of France a trading concession for
Acadia, then defined as extending
from Cape Breton island to the lat
itude Of Philadelphia. With Cham
plain as his lieutenant, De Monts
set sail for the New world fully
equipped for his colonization ven
ture.
Some three months later, on June
26, 1904, a small island In a shell
tered river was selected as best
adapted for fortified settlement and
trading post. This island was named
Saint Crolx and was not far above
where the river now bearing the
same name empties into Passama.

also known as Dochet island, was
erected group of dwellings In
part built Of timber brought from
France, with a storehouse, dining
hall, kitchen, and blacksmith shop.
Gardens were laid out, all carefully
planned by Champlain.
