I'll say I'm on a spot, Mary"
Patrick went on. Here I am in
charge. I've got to solve this muir
der and I don't even know how to
go about it. I haven't got any
qualification for this job, except
common sense"

mon sense of yours will be
enough, Patrick" I told him.
Patrick gave me a strange
stare. Maybe it will be enough

Mary. l must talk things over
with somebody. You know our
minds have always worked pretty
well together. They always did
in school and we've always stood
shoulder to shoulder on town af-
fairs. Do you mind if I come
over here and spill the dope as
fast as I get it. Or do you want
to forget ii as soon as possible?

couldn't go away. I shall stay
here until you clear up this aw-
full business, or you decide to give
it up as unsolvable. I'd like you
to talk it over with me. I have a
feeling that that's the only way
can wash it out of my mind-by
talking about it.
The telephone was going strong
now. MARY, I've been trying to
get you all day. I can't believe
it. It's the most dreadful thing
that's ever happened IN Satuit.
Oh to think that our lovely quiet
little town-Mary, has anybody
any idea who-Oh, I suppose you
won't want to talk about it over
the telephone. Mary, when can I

coming and to come too if they

Very soon after dinner, people
began to appear. 1t was more
like q funeral than any gathering
that has ever been held in my
home, except my husbands fu-
neral. My friends entered the
house with carefully muted foot
steps; they greeted each other
with wordless handshakes, voice
less mods; they talked in careful
Iy muted voices. Every look was
somber and sad, or worn and
wearied. Of course had al
ways known that everybody loved
Ace Blake, but even I had never
realized how much. And yet with
all their love, when my friends
spoke of him, they looked Ques-
honingly at each other.

on burning too freely, turn the

the damper set at that mark.

a sigh into the big chair opposite

PENNSYLVANIA Dutch

The ancestors of the so called
pennsylvania Dutch" came from
Germany, Holland and Switzerland.
They were chiefly members of re-
igious sects such as the Mennon-
ties and immigrated In the late
Seventeenth and early Eighteenth
centuries. At the time of the Revo-
luton it was estimated they con-
stituted one-third of Pennsylvania
population. The early Mennonites
were from Holland or from parts of
Germany adjacent to it where
Dutch was the language spoken.
The name Dutch gradually came
to be applied to the entire German
group, whether they spoke that
language or not, particularly as
they called themselves "Deutsch.
The term Pennsylvania Dutch is
applied to the corrupted mixture of
German and English spoken IN
many parts of that state.

GREEN TO PUSH LEGISLATION TO
 AID FISHERMEN
Representative from Hyder Here to Talk with
 Dimond

Territorial Representatives. e c Joe Green of Hyder came to Juneau on the Northland to confer with Delegate Anthony J. Dimondi rela- tive to- Territorial issues that the Delegate is working for in Wash ingte1.. @
 Primarily" said MT. Green, q am interested in the development of Alaska and the well-being of it's citizens. And that imediately brings in the fishing situation about which there has been so much agitation this year, particularly on Bristol Bay.
 T would like to make it plain that in the coming Legislature I intend to introduce and push any legislation that can be legally en- forced to protect the resident fish ermen of Alaska
 One thing that must be under stood in this connection is that the resident fishermen must keep them selves clear of alliances with out side organizations, because if they do make such affiliations they re- move themselves from the reach of such beneficial legislation as the Territory may pass"
 MT. Green is staying at the Cas- tineau, and expects to leave next week to return to his home in Hyder until the Legislature opens the first of January.
