In a conflict of excitement and un-

his pocket as he said:

Isabelle's stricken gaze veered past
the picture into Paget's shop. Susie
was in there, and Wally, and most of
the younger set. along with some
grown-up people Susie was beaming
and holding Pitchy dressed up in
new red harness; Wally was beaming
and holding his new camera. Every
body was making fuss over them.
while artistic Miss Paget, dressed in
artistic smock and ropes of artistic
beads. was making an artistic fuss
over everybody.
Isabelle's hands clenched at her
sides. All this she had practically
presented to Susie on silver platter!
And in exchange for what? A few
minutes of high mighty temper
and weeks of meek repentance. Never
before had Susie ever won any such
triumph as this. and when Isabelle
appeared wouldn't she pour it on with
the gloat direct and the gloat oblique!
Bracing herself for the ordeal, Isabelle
marched into the shop.
Just inside the doorway she encoun-

by the arm and whispered: Come on.

He hurried her past a group sur
rounding Susie and on into the stock
room. He closed the door behind them
and smiled down at her in his mad

"Are you crazy, or something" she
sputtered, jerking away from him.
And I'm getting sick and tired of
your treating me like was too funny
for words because I'm annoyed at you
for taking sides with Wally and calling
me the only unreasonable one"
"ONLY you? You we're both unrea-

shocked. But didn't think you were
really annoyed but just sort of embar-
rassed because l was a witness to that
fool fight with Wally. I've been trying
to kid you out of it, as l didn't see
how l could be serious without per-

he said, Ito stay calm and forget how
mad you we're when it was taken.
Look at it as a stranger would. If
you'll do that. you'll see picture of
swell girl having swell time romping
with a couple of swell dogs"
She looked down at the snapshot in
his outstretched hand. She saw tiny
image of herself dressed in those
dreadful old slacks and that old sweat
shirt of her fathers, her curls tum-
bling over her head. Clifford had
snapped the picture at that instant
when she had fallen into Ivan's wash
tub. In spray of water she sat, arms
outflung, heels higher than her head,
with Ivan sprawled half across her, and
Pepper dangling from one pant leg.
She snatched the picture from him.
In silence he watched her study it,
her expression changing from horri-
fed anger to self-conscious delight.
1t was the truth that she didn't look
mad. She looked startled, but gay. as
if she were having a swell time. And
those old clothes - well. they looked
sort Of cute on her. The whole picture
looked sort of cute and gay.

] GAME MEN FLY

Andy Simon and John Hajduko- vich were northbound passengers today on the PAA Electra for Fair banks after being in Juneau for ten days to attend the Game Con- mission Conference. Both are mem ioers of the Game Commission Board. Simon from the Third Di- vision and Hajdukovich from the Fourth Division.
 Both men are registered guides, having guided big game hunters in the Interior and Westward for a period of over 30 years. Hajduko- vich, during this time, has covered almost every section of the Terri tory around Fairbanks and down the river and through the Alaska Range.
 Simon, who maintains headquar- ters in the Kenai district, also has hunted over most of the interior country. In recent years, the ma jority of his parties have been taken by plane to lakes in that region with most of the hunting for bear being done on the AL askan Peninsula in the vicinity of False Pass and Port Moller.

DODGE TRUCK E
 CONVERTED INTO
 REGULAR STUDIO
Has Complete Photogra- phi1 LdbordforY-Used
 for Special Purposes

Operated by the Dick Whiting ton photo studios of Los Angeles a Dodge one-ton chassis with spec ial body has been converted into an elaborate camera truck. Called the Trav-L-Lab, the truck is equipped with vertical 35foot extension ladder, complete photo graphic laboratory, hot and cold running water and a dressing room for models.
 When the winner races across the finish line at colorful Santa Anita track, this truck has the best seat in the park. It goes to all important events and is freely ad- mitted where society leaders, Holly wood film notables and visiting royalty vie for preferred positions among thousands of spectators.
 Chief advantage of the photo laboratory is that negatives may be processed while the car is oLdllOillS ct tllC oSCiiC Ol dCliOll UT while it is travelling SO miles an hour. This proved invaluable for spreading pictures of the last Rose Bowl football game across the pages of newspapers all over the United States.
 Before the game, the Dodge truck rolling laboratory was driven into the grounds of the famous Pasa- dena saucer, carrying sound photo equipment and technicians of a news photo syndicate. Action pie lures were taken during the first five minutes of the game and 16 minutes later the photos were en- route to newspapers from coast to coast.
 In the first IS months of serv- ice the Dodge truck has been driv- en over all kinds of roads and has required no repairs of any kind, Wilmington announced. Wheelbase was increased from 133 to 155 inch es to accommodate the special body, which has floor area of 65 square feet.
