with sure steps as if her being there was giving him the confi- dence he needed.
 T was scared last night that all the excitement had made you wreck. I'd know soon enough whether you were all right if l could see you"
 He had climbed into the car, Does it matter so much" April asked with her heart in her mouth, that you can't see me, yet?"
 "As long as you're beside me, nothing matters"
 But she'd seen the shadow cross his face and realized no matter how confident he was in what the doctors had said, there was this fear behind everything that per- haps he wasn't going to see again ever
 Quickly, she changed the sub ject. "The day, Kent - it's made to order"
 "Yes, to order for us. Tell me about it, Ann"
 As he moved closer to her, she started the car. Ann! Always Ann. She picked her words as she was sure Ann would have done.
 You'd hardly know it's winter" she said. The sky is as cloudless as October and the sun is going to be as warm. Even the grass has a green look where the frost has dried, and the hills are hori- zon blue"
 There, that was the way Ann would have described it. She felt proud of herself. Besides, now that she looked at the view, she real ized it was beautiful.
 I've brought the fixings for a steak fry she said.
 Go on-tempt me further"
 His head was back against the leather seat. She noticed his hair, brown. with brief, russet wave.
 Well, if you must be tempted further, we're going to drive miles and miles out to that windmill farm we discovered"
 She was thankful Kent couldn't see the guilty blush which she knew was creeping into her face. Last night, when she'd been mak- ing these fantastic plans, she found a notebook Ann used in her music lessons.
 There'd been a few notations on the margins. One of them had said-"Kent and I found another perfect place for picnics today. We drove into Green county, through the State park to where the red road forks off and came upon farm with a windmill"
 You remembered it, Ann?" he

. STORIES
 IN STAMPS
Argentino's San Martin
 Led Army Across Andes
--v~--vv-

ZEN. JOSE SAN MARTIN, pic, " tured on the stamp above, is Argentina's national hero, shares honors with Simon Bolivar in the liberation of South America. Ar- gentina has honored him with many stamp issues.
 San Martin was colonel in the Spanish army when revolution broke out in the Argentine in 1910. He returned to South America, offered his services to the patriot leaders.
 Like Bolivar, San Martin real ized that all of South America must be free. As long as Spain ruled Chile and Peru, the inde- pendence of Argentina would be menaced. Avoiding civil wars, San Martin trained an army of 4000 cavalrymen, led it across 12,000-foot passes of the Andes in winter, in one of the greatest military feats of the western hemisphere. He liberated Chile,: then Peru.
 Alliance with Bolivar was nec-, essary to maintain the republics, so San Martin joined forces with the Liberator, allowed Bolivar to assume full leadership. San Mar tin became a voluntary exile in Europe, died in France in 1850.

spoke with a quiet kind of happi- ness.
 "Yes," she faltered. Tt was a red letter day"
 The words were choking her. This venture had seemed easy and gallant on her part when she started out. But no, not a mile from the Garter home, her courage was already failing. She, April, had no right to be here. She was an outsider, an interloper Why, she was worse than a Glitterbug.
 She ust tell Kent at once, no matter what the consequences. She shot the roadster to the top of the hill and then abruptly, damned on the brakes. The car quivered to stop.

Indian FeLOn Asks
To SerDe Nation

When an Indian Is confined TO mar
row quarters for some time, he longs
for the wide-open spaces, according To
legend. But Deer Lodge, home Of Mon
tanas state prison, has produced q
red man who wants to get out of
stir" and join the army.
Serg. Nick f. HertgeS didn't believe
1t possible, either, but he opened his
mall and was surprised to see he had
a correspondent In the state peniten-
tiary, The Indian, who said he Is q
full blood Sioux and Is 35 years old,
Is tired Of the pen. Besides, he has
his future TO think about. His future,
he pointed out, win be resumed In
October, when he walks out OF the
prison gates-a free man.
Prison has reformed him, according
TO a passage from the missive, which
reads: Beings am a true American
Indian and ward Of the government,
believe I should be given chance
to defend my country side by side with
my fellow Americans"
Sergeant Hertges is sorry, but for
two reasons he can't put the red man
In Uncle Sans khaki family. First,
he has passed his 35th birthday, and
second, he's a convicted felon.

ATHENS, April 10 (N.AN.A.) By
Wireless - Delayed. The Second
Australian Imperial Force, together
with the Greek. British and New
Zealand forces, is facing the tough
est battle in its short history among
the gloomy mountain passes in Gen.
tral Greece.
1t would be folly 70 pretend there
Is anything except bitter fighting
ahead. The blitzkrieg is on in full
force and the Germans are thrust
ing southwark with all the ruthless
ness and thoroughness of which
they have shown themselves mast
ers in other European campaigns.
They are exerting strong pressure
against the Allied line, hammering
supply routes and harassing troops
with aircraft which come over sew
eral times daily in overwhelming
numbers. The Allied troops are
holding out, but the relentless air
attacks, combined with the thrusts
by crack land forces. have necessi-
tated further rectification of the
line.
I have Just returned from the
front because there Is no other
way of getting dispatches to Athens.
The roads are congested with army
vehicles, refugees on foot and in
buses and cars, and normal COM
munications are interrupted.
Clouds Keep Off Planes.
A trip which usually can be made
in 10 hours took % hours. 1t would
have been a nightmare journey II
low-hanging clouds had not made
air operations difficult. I left the
foot Of the Servia Pass where Aus
tralian and New Zealand troops
were still holding the line yester-
day afternoon and by 8 pm. I had
travelled about 80 miles.
On the way the driver told me
that a column with which he trav-
eled was raided about IL am. He
and the drivers of other nearby
vehicles jumped out and flung them
selves down on the ground. Two
bombs fell about so yards away;
then another German plane came
over and fired on them with a ma
chine gun. The rear guard opened
up and bullets spattered all around,
but only one man was wounded-in
the heel
The entire journey was like that.
We had four alarms during the aft
ernoon. Drivers and passengers
formed close acquaintance with
muddy bitches. I passed through
Larisa, which had once been a thriv-
ing town Now it is a mass of ruins
and windows everywhere are shat
tered. Three craters are marked with
notices. indica ting the presence of
time bombs.
Today's journey was comparatively
uneventful, thanks to a drizzling
rain and heavy clouds. The spirit of
the Greeks on the road was mag
nificent. I saw civilians carrying
belongings on their backs, trans

try in the world, up and down goat
tracks, across stony ravines and
over rocky peaks. They slept most
of the night in snow with only one
blanket to cover them. The brigadier
and the brigade major borrowed
horses one afternoon to visit the
battalion commander one mile away.
1t took them two hours to make
the journey, and they had to lead
the horses every inch Of the way.
The allied forces are not the only
sufferers in this grim mountain war
fare. Australian guns took q heavy
toll Of Germans, and q big artillery
battle was raging there last night.
New Zealanders also fought a
short, deadly action against the
Germans who were attempting to
cross the Aliakmon River by boat.
They waited until the laden boats
were in midstream, then opened fire
with machine guns and rifles. The
river was soon filled with struggling
Germans as the boats overturned.
The Australians, closing In, cap
tured $50 prisoners while the rem
nant of the Germans retreated..
