marry a type, and that's what they were. If and when she did fall in love it would be with someone more refreshing. Someone with purpose and spirit.
 The question formed in her mind without her being conscious of it. Someone like Eddie Cava- Her? No, she told herself, it could hardly be Eddie could it?
 But when he spoke, suddenly, at her side she stared visibly.
 T guess we're picking up the pilot here," he observed. He was right. In a little while they were in Chatham Sound and nosed toward their dock.
 The gangway had hardly been moored fast when Duffy Kelso was scrambling down. Pop Grimes leaned on the rail and watched him. He'll fall fiat on his face, sure" he said dryly. T almost did when I stepped on land after my first sea trip"
 But Duffy made it without acci- dent. He found a waterfront res- taurant with a pay station and put his call through.
 Duffy Kelso ran all the way back to the ship. He was raging and sputtering so much he could hardly talk.
 First thing Pop did was remove the ciagr from his mouth. Maybe this1l make it easier" he said.
 We been jobbed again!" Duffy screamed. He told them what had happened in San Francisco. F
 That's bad" muttered Pop. q dunno whether we can give away pounds like that - especially to a tough one like Corky Briggs"
 We ain't got no choice" Duffy said. "C'mon, we're gettin' back to Frisco in a hurry"
 Just minute,' Eddie said quietly. I've changed my mind We're going back to Frisco the same way we came"

alternative. So CaValier'U have to give away eight, nine pounds, or so. It's his business, not mine, if he wants that title shot,"
 He looked at his watch. That mud scow of theirs gets into Prince Rupert in a few hours. I'm gonna wire Duffy now he should call me just as soon as he gets ashore. Now scram, you guys, and let me have my head ache in peace"
 They left him with rush and Sam Golden reached for the rem nants of the bottle of whiskey.

 Sparks sent Sam Golden's wire down to Duffy Kelso a couple of hours later.
 Gall me immediately you find telephone" he read out aloud. That sounds like Sam Golden" Duffy said. He must be up in the air like kite, only higher"
 Duffy stared at the message again, suspiciously. T don't like the smell of this," he said.
 Well, the nearest telephone is still three hours away. Meanwhile, keep your blood below the boiling point" Val advised him. You might want to get up full head of steam later when you put your call through"
 Whats up, do you wonder?" Pop asked her when he got her alone. But Val had no better idea than they did.
 It was late afternoon when the Northern Belle nosed slowly up the channel toward Prince Rupert. well be picking up pilot soon,' Val observed. They were leaning against the rail up for ward, letting the cool breeze fan back into their faces.
 How long before we dock?" Eddie asked.
 Couple of hours at least" She looked at him sideways. Cant wait until you I'd yourself of us. can you?"
 He shrugged and stared at the curling wake of white which spewed away from the bow.
 Tt was your offer, remember. What do you expect me to do un- der the circumstances? Duffy probably will weep out of sheer happiness"
 He had something there, she ad- mitted to herself. What did she expect? Could there be any earth ly reason why he'd give up a quick trip back to San Francisco instead of a four-day voyage.
 Was that what she wanted? That wa sa troublesome thought, too. She stole glance at the dark, rugged profile beside her. There was something slightly incongru- ous about it. That sensitive mouth, maybe. Eddie Cavalier didn't have the mouth you'd expect to find on boxer. Strange she should be catching herself thinking of little things like that.
 So she let her mind wander a bit. She thought of some of the other men she had known. A couple of them she had liked. There was Marshall Kendall. Handsome, impetuous Marshall Kendall who didn't have to work day of his life if he didn't care to, but who was haphazardly try ing to learn the brokerage busi- ness. Marshall and his house on Long Island and his yacht.
 There was Rodney Blair, hu- man dynamo if ever there was one. So wrapped up in his law business that he had no time to relax. She could like Rodney Blair a lot if only he would un- bend a little more. He had al- ready asked her to marry him.
 Yet she knew she could never fall in love with either Marshall or Rodney. She couldn't ever

 IN STAMPS
Horses Disappearing From Postal Service

FOR centuries before postage A stamps were invented, the horse was identified with the transport of mails. Early colonial America depended on post riders for mail delivery. The Pony Ex- press, established in 1860. marked the peak of the courier system.
 The postman's cart, pictured on the stamp above, was familiar sight on city streets and rural routes in 1912, when the stamp was issued, one of a set of l2 designated for parcel post. AL though the automobile has prac- tically supplanted the horse in mail delivery. the 1889 Postoffics Department report lists 30 horse- drawn vehicles under contract for city delivery. No data on the , number of horses used in rural delivery were available.
 Rural free delivery service has grown from three routes. in 1896. to 32,839 routes, employing 32,761 carriers who cover 42l l,854,497 miles annually to serve 25,O00,O ,OO0 patrons. The service costs about 20 cents mile.

By Hy-Grdde Dairy

dairy products from the Hy-Grade
Dairy Co. since the firm was or
ganized in 1880.
1t is now owned and managed by
Paul Detwiler, who took over the
business from Homer Gratz in Aug
ust, 1889.
All milk distributed by the dairy
comes from tuberculin tested herds,
and is pasteurized before being bot

modern type is used, and the dairy
products truly live up to the name
of the concern.

PUZZLE

As near as can be judged from umors that
seem to be based on little more than hints,
MussoL1NI told United States Ambassador
PHILLIPS the other day that Italy does not con-
template abandoning her acknowledgement status.
If so it is a problem to know what to think
of it.
There is considerable evidence supporting the
report that Musso1lN1 did reassure Mr.. PHIL
LIPS. Correspondents on the spot noted an cas-
ing of the atmosphere around the American
embassy after the interview. Italian observers
pointed out that Italian ships are still leaving
their home ports for the United States. There
was also reference to the restraint shown by
the Italian press in commenting on the British
move in ordering their vessels out of the Medi.
terranean.
Nevertheless, MUssoL1N1's assurance-assum.
ing he made it-conficts with the warlike tone
of recent speeches by Fascist officials, with
warnings in Italian newspapers, and with q
whole tide of rumors of impending action. II

MUCH AS EXPECTED

Eight months ago last Friday Great Britain
and France Joined the issue with Nazi Germany
over aggression, and the intervening effects
upon American economy have been about what
the experts predicted, howeve the results may
vary from general expectations.
Our foreign trade has kept up we'll in total
amount, with q vast change in the nature Of
that trade in progress. The diversion Of Allied
purchasing power to war materials aided some
American industries. notably the aircraft manu-.
facturers, but left agriculture here worse off
than before.
The loss of the German market has been off.
set in general by increased dealings with 9th.
ers. Commodity imitation shows signs Of crop
ping out in some parts of Europe, but official
efforts are being directed to modification Of such
trends, and there IL hardly a reflection thereof
in the United States.
The fearful costs of the war are being me
largely by borrowing and even in the United
Kingdom this will be the primary dependence,
as the recent budget presentation indicated. The
solution Of this pilins Of debt upon debt is not
easy to ~foresee, but clearly will be a postwar
problem. SO, also, in all likelihood, will be the
gold and other questions that are becoming
more troublesome as the war continues.

IT'LL TAKE A NOW

CREAT BRITAIN's collapse in Norway may
attached to it by the commentators. But its
diplomatic significance is indisputable. With
the British incapable of giving effective aid in
Norway when her aid was most needed, not
only for Norway's salvation but for the saliva
tion Of Great Britain's prestige as well, there
can be no doubt that HITLER Is now in position
to enforce his will upon the little neutrals of
Europe, however strong their sympathies may
be for the Allied cause.
What can Turkey, Greece and Rumania, or
Belgium and Holland for that matter, think of
the Allies, and their pledges, when they leave
Norway to the Germans after a futile gesture
supported by a few half-trained and under
equipped soldiers? They must already be ask
ing themselves, Would our fate be the m ?"
And, in the present mass hysteria, it is easy to
believe their answer would be Eyes,
Thus HITLER comes perilously near his objec.
tive-mastery of central Europe, with vassals
to the south and far to the north-without a
major battle. And all because the gentleman at
No. 10 Downing street, the apostle Of appease-
ment, the self-deceiver, as the Manchester
Guardian called him, Mr.. CHAMBERLAIN, can't
grasp the fact that mad dogs and rattlesnakes
are immune to argument, and must be killed
out OF hand if their power for evil is to be re-
moved.
Whatever the Allies do now to recover from
the blow in Norway, and that they will ulti.
mately recover is beyond doubt, the fasco there
annot fail to prolong the conflict and involve
sacrifices we cannot at this time estimate. The
Norwegian blunder will require years to cor
rect. B.
