 She looked wiStfully at him .~@ smiled more sweetly than he had ever before seen her, he thought.
 q don't have one. Boys in school gave me candy, and sometimes flowers. Nobody never gave me jew elry before. Not even my parents" She was speaking very gently. It was obvious that he had touched her; hint of tears even gliStened, and to save her possible embarrasS- ment he turned to the scenery again.
 "It's a fur piece across there, as the cowboys say, isn't it? I won- der how the Tribune Tower would look sitting out there. Or the Merchandise Mart?"
 "The - what?" She looked up at him.
 "Ha ha! That's Chicago, Caro- lee. Two of our big skyscrapers. They'd look tiny besides any little mountain out here, though"
 What is Chicago like, Stuart?"
 "Like-like a nightmare some times. Noisy and crowded and ugly. Not always, though. I've had swell times there. You'd love 1t for a while. But any city is a little synthetic, think"
 You mean you think it isn't real? The people? The funP Every thing?"
 They talked for an hour about Chicago. She asked many ques- tions. Dallas was the biggest city she had ever seen, and that only to pass through. She had gone to school at a junior college in Jack sonville, Texas. Acquaintance with a man from the bustling, ener- getic. urban north was stimulating to her. She liked Stuart Blake. She told herself she could love him even, if things ever went that way. He seemed-well, clean. He had never tried to kiss her. Sometimes, she confessed to her. self, she even wished he hadD And his gift, this beautiful brace let of Indian silver, was something she'd never forget. She'd rather have had it than a thing of dia- monds. It was a part of Arizona, actually and sentimentally.
 When it was time to go she thanked him again, and agreed to meet him often on signal. She dis couraged any thought of his call- ing at her shack home, even to take her riding.
 "It has been lovely to see you and talk" she told him. T have even forgotten to worry"
 She regretted the admission in- stantly. She bit her lip and frown- ed. He was looking at her, kindly but intently.

AGED FISHERMEN
 GET GOOD BREAK
Pay Only 5 Cents For License = Eight Given
 Permits to Date

Only eight of Waterbury's ap- proximately 1000 persons who have reached the age of 65 or over to date received fishing licenses from the town clerks office for the sum of 35 cents.
 Under the terms of a new law which became effective last Thurs day, any person who has reached the 65 year mark may receive a permit by simply paying the record ing fee.
 Prior to the establishment of the new law, only those benefitting by the old age pension were elegible fo- the 35 cent license.
 Town Clerk Dora A. Egan has explained that the 35 cent permit is equal in privileges to the regular permit issued to other persons for $3.35 annually. The number 1000 persons over 65 in this city is de- pendent upon the statement by the local office of the old age assist ance plan that 729 applications had been cleared through here.

Brain TwizzIers By Prot. ]. D. Flint

A wealthy man, father of eight married children, owned a section of lnnd adjoining a city. AS a civic minded resident this man decided to convert part of his property into a playground for children so he had plans drawn up for square play ground within his square section. After this had been done he wanted to will the rest of the property to his eight children in eight pieces to be the same size and shape and with the same frontage on the park. How did he do it?
 Answer to Yesterdays Twizzler
 o. U. Kidds walking distance on each Jog can be figured as the hy- pote use of a triangle which has the length of the log as one arm and the distance the log rolled as she other arm. The 10 foot log rolled 20 yards or 60 feet so Kidds walking on that was sos feet, the Nliare foot of 10 squared plus 60 9uared. There are ten of these logs hnking sos feet. Likewise thirty l2 hUt logs yield 1898 feet. Thus 1898 NiiB sos plus $50 yards or 1850 feet NaIked up the hill makes a total of Aze5 feet Copyright John T. bile

 CHAPTER TX
 Carolee hung out sheet at o'clock the next morning.
 She was hard put to find an excuse for it. It simply wouldn't do to have her family know she was signaling Stuart Blake. She felt guilty, like mischievous child, when she stole out of the camp shack and hurriedly at- tached the sheet to the clothesline. And soon after she stole out again and took 1t down. At 10 o'clock she was at the trysting place on Chieftain.
 Stuart came soon after she ar- rived.
 x T wasn't sure you'd be able to make it." she said. But I wanted to know how you were. I would have ridden on to the Lodge"
 I'm perfect Almost. Thanks again for helping me. I just needed water. Another day without it and I'd have been tied up plenty, I imagine"
 "You didn't look very happy"
 "But feel happy today. Espe- cially now"
 ''Why? Whats happened?" She thought she knew what he meant, but she wanted to hear him say it.
 "I'm with you" He leaned on his saddle horn and looked ap- pealingly at her. "Carolee, you told me once I'd never under stand your kind of people, as you call them. Tell me, why do you think that? Aren't we all Amer icans?"
 "Yes. But-you're northern, and city reared. Papa and the boys have been poor farmers all their lives. They mean well. They are good to me. But they are - mar row, I guess; and hard"
 "But yourself, Carolee. You aren't that way. You're alert and smart. You don't have to stick with your family and all, do you? I mean, not always?"
 She wasn't sure she understood him.
 T guess not. But I'm one of them, anyway. think you are nice, though; I don't ever hold a grudge, and I'll admit again that we were very rude in the saddle store that day"
 "Oh, forget that. That's history, and more funny than anything. Look, milady, I've brought you gift. It's little enough for the favor you did me yesterday"
 He gave her small parcel. She dimpled at him, and the vision she made sent thrills through him. Carolee Golfer was pretty, sweet, refreshingly so. She wore rouge often, but it was superhuous. And her curls were natural. She was slightly short, weighed, perhaps, 115. There was ver-so-delicate a Snub to her nose. Stuart studied her closely as she unwrapped her gift.
 'O-o-ohl Stuart!"
 She lifted 1t from its tissue - a bracelet of silver set with the most perfect of turquoise. One large stone was shaped like an arrow head, barbs and all, Tiny round ones followed the open cir lcle of the bracelet-beautiful blue green gems which Carolee knew were native to the Arizona hills. The silver was heavy and richly adorned with tiny sun symbols, a swastika, q running horse, a wiggly snake, In- dian signs all.
 "Old Sosteen made it for me-" said Stuart. "Or rather for you. He comes to the Lodge sometimes. He's not Apache, like the squaws you saw. He's Navajo"
 She slipped 1t on her lovely arm. She held 1t out, up.
 "The stones match the sky" she almost whispered, so keen was her admiration. "It's beautiful, Stuart. Thank you, very, very much"

THE SECRET OF

- CTOBER's bright blue weather"
is the finest of the year through
out the temperate zone. 1t is
made doubly beautiful by the
autumn coloring which presents the most
gorgeous display in the whole realm of nature.
Most of us believe that this beautiful show of
color in the fall is caused by frost yet this is
only partly true. 1t is really due to the waning
activity of the leaf which results in a chemical
change.
The chloropast in the leaves changes its color
as it dies and produces luxurious shades of yell
low; the vivid reds are caused by new SUBJ
stance that is manufactured in the enfeebled
cells.
Anything that tends to diminish the activity
of the leaf may produce these characteristic
colors and cold is one of the conspicuous
conditions. Drought also will bring about this
change.
The leaves of the black gum are among the
first to turn red and this always occurs before
frost.

Magistrate Slaps $25 Fine
on City Float for Allow
ing Girl, II, in Place

Issuing a declaration of war on
all places in Juneau where intox-
icating liquors are. sold, City Mag
istrate A. w. Henhing this morning
fined Harry Haloff $25 for permit
ting a girl under Is years of age
to frequent a place where intoM-
eating beverages are dispensed.
This mornings action was the
result of Investigations conducted
by Magistrate Henning and Chief
of Police Rof Hoffman last Friday
night, during which they found a
seventeen-year-old girl in the City
Float Beer Parlor, which at the
time was in charge of Haloff,, the
Iofficials said
In imposing the fine, Magistrate
Henning pointed out that it is COM
Ipletely opposed to the public good to
allow any young woman to be hab-
itues of beer and wine parlors, and
warned that an active campaign
will be undertaken by the city au-
thorities to put stop to the practice
in all such Juneau establishments.
Magistrate Henning said the or
dinance should be upheld in spirit,
not just in letter, and that it is up
to the operators of beverage dispen-
isaries not to heckle over slight age
qualifications but to see that no
young people, whether they be just
turned 10 or not, be allowed to
frequent their places.
