CHAPTER II

Chief Laughing Water - or Du- gan Blake - was something Of a shock to Barbara Chase. She had expected well, anyhow this WASN'T what she expected
 Beautiful flowers you have there" he remarked as they walked up the steps. "A perfect complement for a lovely lady"
 She looked up startled but this face was expressionless.
 Say - for an Ind-I mean you do well on the flattery on short notice, don't you?"
 Again the faint smile. For an Indian - yes"
 Uncle Hank, supervising the un- loading of Dugan's baggage, lanced at them and chuckled. Raising favorite niece had its moments, and maybe he was heading for quite @ few of them, all at once.
 He was even more certain of 1t a few minutes later when Sue Bishops convertible screeched to stop outside. Sue was a tall, pert 11osed blond who had been school mate of Barbara's. She was, in fact her closest friend.
 whats this I hear about an In- dian raid?" she called over her shoulder as she took the stairs two at a time Think we ought to send for the cavalry?"
 Uncle Hank flashed a startled look upstairs, wondering if Dugan had heard. Probably not, though. He was in his room.
 Sue burst into Barbara's room like a tornado on the upgrade. Hey, what's this all about2" she inquired, tossing herself on the bed. You were out when I called before, but Charles told me the household is getting set to well come redskin."
 Charles as usual was the we'll informed butler" Barbara nut tered. He was right. Uncle Hank thinks ought to share the white mans burden"

 Barbara explained. But" she concluded, things may not be so bad. MT. Chief Leaping Water, or DugNn Blake, if you will, is just about the looking male ever to set foot on these or any grounds 1 the vicinity.
 "Furthermore, she added, head
 for the shower, "he seems to

 tionl Never can tell, though, Ehen he'll revert to the tomahawk Stage"
 Its him, not you, I'm worried about. Bet the poor boy wishes he'd never left his reservation or toupee, or whatever 1t is Indians live in. When do I meet him?"
 Tomorrow night. I think we'll start things of by throwing party for him at the Starlight Terrace"
 Sue whistled. "The Starlight Terrace - for his debut"
 Barbara winked. ought to be good
 Barbara cast an appraising eye over Dugan Blake as she walked between him and Uncle Hank to the dining room. She didn't think an Indian could look so nice in gray flannel suit and brown and white shoes.
 He noticed her look. T don't really feel comfortable dressed like this" he admitted. Your uncle Mir. Chase sent me list of the things I'd need in the way of clothes, but personally I'd rather wear corduroys and boots"
 How naive" she smiled, "Oh, by the way" she continued, noting

Two Surprise Gifts
Help U. 5. 0. Drive
For S250,0o0
War Department Unit
And Phone Operators
Make Contributions

Gifts from two groups whose men,
bers already had made individual
contributions have helped swell the
receipts of the Univer Service Organ
ization's campaign in its push to-
ward $250,000.
The first surprise contribution
came yesterday from members of
the Money Accounts Examination
Division in the Office of the Chief
of Finance, War Department.
Soon after the first U. S. o. COL
lection had been made in the Mu-
nitions Building, it was decided to
give a lawn party to increase the
gift. The party was held last Satur-
day at the home of Mrs. Ivory Allen
in Takoma Park and yesterday the
campaign was richer by $121.13.
The second gift came from the
Dialette Club. Campaign headquar-
ters discovered that the club was
social group of IS telephone op-
orators associated with the national
exchange of the Chesapeake g. Po-
tomac Telephone Co. AS members
were transferred to other offices, it
became increasingly difficult to hold
semi-monthly meetings so the
women decided to disband.
When the treasurer, Miss Lucy M.
Cook, reported a balance of S54.72
and wanted to know what to do with
it, she was directed by the members
to turn it over to the U. S. O., al
though the members had already
made their individual gifts with the
other telephone company employees,

THE loss of ocean tanker tonnage
IN the battle Of the Atlantic and the
consequent adjustments in trans

said.
Further, the transportation IA

The 1-cent increase for gasoline,
said the controller, is due to the in
creased cost of crude at the base
and added cost in transportation.

In the larger cities of Ontario
and Quebec the cost for ordinary
gasoline is around % and 80

Large Quantities Needed.
Several hundred million gallons
of fuel oil are needed yearly by es-
sential war industry. Without oil,
our war effort would fail. Also large
quantities of bunker oil and fuel oil
are essential for our steel mills, for
the Aluminium Co. and the many
other larger industrial enterprises.
Without oil these plants would be
unable to do that which is expected

it is difficult to supplment these by

capacity of $1,000 barrels per day
which, no doubt, will relieve the sit

On the other hand, tankers are
still required to supply the pipe lines

Describing the factors contribut-
ing to the situation in Canada, Mr..

oBOSTON, Aug. 1-(R-The
Detroit Tigers rested today with
a note of despair, CROPPED for sal

through.
Russo refused the hit-hungry
Detroiters q safety for six inn
ings, but he gave up two in the
seventh, and Tuck Stainback
and Barney McCoskey each
doubled and Pinky Higgins sin
gled in the ninth to tie the score.
