Growing Impatient at last, and a

moment or two of panic, in which it
seemed that she had lost him alto

knew where the other was if she
did not, and presently brought her

She heard the rip of steel on leather

the silence Of the night exploded

Two guns smashed out in a swift

Miss Hazel Brannon
The Durant News
Dear Miss Brannon:
Thanks very much for your letter
of the 18th ~inclosing copy of the
article you have written on Camp
Blanding. / am astounded at the
mass of information which you have
accumulated on Camp Blanding. 1t
is the most complete story that ]
have read and you are certainly an
exceptional reporter as no one else
has taken the trouble to be as care
full and as painstaking in accumulat-
ing facts from the time the camp first
started up to the present date as you
have. Il is likewise interesting that
a girl could grasp in such a short
time the knowledge Of military mat
tiers that you have displayed. / don't
agree with some of your conclusions,
and | fear that there is a tendency
on the part of the public to make life
too easy for soldiers. In battle
soldiers must be very tough and
very hard, able to undergo terrific
physical punishment. The only way
to prepare them for such a life is
to harden them physically before they
are called upon to undergo that sort
of experience.
/ am very glad indeed to have met
you and hope that you will come
back to see us at Blanding or
wherever we are stationed.
Cordially,
JOHN c. PERSONS,

water i'm. To me this story
was all the more sorrowful and
eloquent because l once knew
Richard Halliburton.
Life with father may not be
so bad for local babies here,
after. At the New York Mater
nifty Health Center, a course
has been started in Infant Care,
for fathers only. 1t is rapidly
becoming one of the institu-
tons most popular studies. A
bout 80 papas are devotedly
learning how to feed the baby,
how to apply and remove his
intricate three-cornered britch-
es, how many calories to hol6
to his hungry little mouth and
very important-how to stop
him from crying. Large rubber
dolls are used fort these mater
nal dads to practice on in class.
And when they finish this III
fantile course, the question,
What is me without a moth
err" will be gleefully answer
ed by these palpitating paters
with Were the substitutes
from the Institutes"
Before an exchange shop at
IA East 48th Street, a startling
sign is attracting attention. It
says: "Notice SIS will exempt
from the Draft. A resolution
has been passed at a special
Town Meeting that every per-
son here residing and liable
to such Draft, pay to the Com
mittee the sum of SIS; and on
such payment, the Committee
shall procure a substitute for
every person making such pay
ment, and none Others" But
alas! The Notice is dated
January %, 1864.
A letter / received recently
from Captain Eddie Ricken-
hacker, injured in p plane
crash and now in the Pied
mont Hospital, Atlanta, Ca,
has this paragraph: Things
are coming along nicely with
me and now that / am able to
prowl around the hospital with
the aid of a little walkmobile,
it is aiding considerably in
strengthening my legs and
making me feel a little indie
pendent, which is a grand feel
ing after being a bondage so
long,"

Dickens Pitching In
Western Leuque
(,By William Cathey)

For the information of all fans
interested in the whereabouts of
and progress being made by Albert
Dickens, former Durant resident,
word has been received here that
the youth is now doing pitching
chores for the Sioux City Iowa Red
birds of the Western League and is
making a very excellent showing.
Diamond enthusiasts who had the
pleasure of seeing Dickens in action
while a member of the Holmes Jun
Tor College squad remember his hur-
ling the Bulldogs to two straight
Junior College championships. In
1888 he beat the highly touted Ray
mond Eagles at Jackson by a score
of 4 to 8 and in 1889 he handed
the Senatobia Rangers an IL 10 1
pasting to cxnch the circuit title,
which was determined on a percez-
tage basis.
During the next diamond season
the lefthander was a member Of the
University of Alabama aggregation
where he won one game and lost
one. After his first year at the
Capstone he did mound work for in
dependent clubs and won Id tits
while losing 6. AT the start of the
1874 campaign he signed a st. Louis
Cardinal contract and started with a
farm unit, the Mobile Shippers of
the Southeastern League, where he
remained until April 80. He stay
ed with the group for Ia days of
the season but did moi participate
in anything except exhibition at
fairs. The Nashville Vols of the
Southern Association pasted a 10
inning defeat upon the Woodworking
lad, but the Pensacola Fliers, a
Southeastern League entry, fell be-
fore the hurting of the southpaw.
His recent start in unfamiliar sur
roundings wa a very suspicious n
when he held the Pueblo. Colo. nine
to six safeties, four Of which were
scratches, and struck out 9 ba.ters.
He walked four men and committed
one miscue. All of the taliies re-
Clustered against Dickens we're un-
earned.

These sails were colored by be-

81 days for his craft to make
the Pacific crossing and now it
is said to be the only Chinese
junk in the Atlantic. Inside the
small, sunken cabin / was
greeted by the keen odor of
Oriental incense and several
cute Chinese girls dressed in
native costume. They sat a.

Even more striking were
other bits of information l got
from Captain Nilsson. / asked
him if the junk was like the
one in which Richard Halli-
burton, the explorer, disap-
peareed in the Pacific some
time ago. To my surprise, Nil
son replied that prior to his de-
parture, Halliburton had con-
ferred with him in regard to
what kind of boat to use. He
had even tried to buy this junk.
Then after Nilsson had advised
him against it, the young ex-
plOrer who had built a similar
boat, equipped it with two
huge Diesel engines wrich
made it top-heavy, according
to this story. He then set sail
along with some companions
across the uncharted route of
the equator, a dangerous voy-
age no one had ever attempted
before. / asked Nilsson what
he thought happened to Halli-
burton who has not been
heard from since. Sadly, the
seaman replied, IL believe that

gines shook that calking out
