When things we're quiet he went
visiting. He liked to saunter past the
leopards, Haunting his liberty. He
issued insulting, long g-distance chal-
lenges to the pumas. Once he found
the black panther's tail lying outside
the bars and sharpened his claws on
it for blissful second.
Sue Elaine had no trouble keeping
her relations with Blake on business
like basis. As that day and the next
went by, he began to avoid her. Sue
Elaine wasn't sure she liked this treat
ment. How could you show man you
disapproved of him when he stayed
out of sight?
OF course, he was very busy con-
structing snares for George. He
combed his memory for odd traps
used by Dyaks, Nasal tribesmen and
Malay hunters. Somebody suggested
that George was insulted by small
traps. So Blake tried methods used to
capture cheetahs. wolverines and
jaguars. Now and then George visited
the traps and liked the bait well
enough to steal it.
Blake gave up reading the news
papers, although there was a great
deal of reading matter in them about
George and the Zoo. He went around
muttering and was reported to have
Knocked down a burly visitor who
meowed at him.
One day he sat down grimly at his
desk and began sketching. He worked
for hours, filling his wastebasket with
discarded plans. Sue Elaine watched
nervously. 1t was like watching fire
cracker sizzle. In mid-afternoon he
uttered a wild cry. Got itr' he
shouted. This will catch George. This
is a new departure in traps. 1t is de-
signed to keep animals out"
THAT doesn't seem very sensible"
ut is, though. I've studied George.
He's perverse. If he thinks he isn't
supposed to get into this trap he'll
work all night finding an entrance.
I'll bait it with a nice fish"
He hurried off to build it. Sue Elaine
finished her work, thinking hard.
George had been working a subtle
change in Blake by chipping off bits
of his egotism. But if George were
caught, Blake would recover his hate

There was a fluff of gray fur stuck BE-

Back in 1920. George Buchanan
visited Alaska. He liked the country.
If only boys could go to Alaska, he
thought. they would be seeing a
stirring part of America. their horizons
would be broadened, and they would
be vitality inspired. On the way there.
they would dream such dreams as only
the minds of boys can conjure up; and
out of those dreams would come ambi-
ton, initiative, imagination. :
So in 1922. he organized his Onto
Alaska With Buchanan. Inc. This is
fund which advances money to boys
to take trips to Alaska. Any boy -
and now any girl - between the ages
of five and twelve. which Buchanan
considers the character forming period,
may apply. The boy must earn SIPS
by his own efforts. His parents must
contribute another $l25. Then. If the
hoy is accepted for the trip. George
Buchanan advances the remaining
SIPS, which covers the cost. On this
basis. almost every year now. George
Buchanan takes from fifty to hun
dred boys and girls on an 5000 mile
Alaskan trip.
The sums which George Buchanan
let's the boys have, he does not call
loans, but advances. Neither the boys
nor their parents are under legal
obligations to pay the money back.
George Buchanan is willing to trust
these boys az Alec Elliott had trusted
him. When the boys have settled down
to manhood. they will pay him back.
And they do. because the kind of boys
he picks for these trips are self reliant.
honest fellows who would not cheat.
More than 500 boys have gone with
Buchanan since 1923 - and not one
has defaulted.
George Buchanan believes that boys
are honest. Teach the boy self reliance.
give him a sense of responsibility. and
the man will be honest.
This is old-fashioned morality. But
it worked with George Buchanan and
it is working with his boys.

repaid the debt of honor thus incurred
more fully and more wisely than
George E. Buchanan of Detroit: He is
eternally paying that debt.
Born in Canada nearly seventy
years ago, of Scotch parents who
raised sheep on their farm in Thames
vile, Ontario. George was little boy
when he lost his father. He and his
brothers had to quit school to work on
the farm. No schooling. No leisure.
Few horizons. George seemed to be
beaten at the beginning of his race.
But not this George. He listened to
stories told by neighbor. Alec Elliott,
about the ''old country" Scotland and
Ireland. and the romance of places
across the Atlantic. And George
wanted to 60 to those places. He
wanted to see the world.
