pose she does now"
He smoked deeply and silently
for a few moments, wondering if he
could tell his aunt about what he
had learned last night.
His silence proved too much for
her. She said, when the Wisters
came here, Anthony, everybody
was nice to them, same as we are
To ali strangers In spite of
their being so different, as anyone
could see. Heathenish, you might
almost say"
"Sun-worshipers," he murmured.
That's heathenish, amt it?"
They were both thinking OF the
same thing, but thinking differently
of the Wisters who lived more in
their garden than In their house.
The town had never ceased TO WON
der at their sun bathing, the scan
tincss Of their costume, their out
of-doors meals, the casual case Of
their life.
Tony looked at his aunt with q
smile at the corner of his mouth,
"They were quite respectable" he
said.
Respectable? Yes" she be.
grudged. II suppose so. But they
weren't very friendly, I must say"
He found himself repeating Bar
bara's words, "she wanted to be.

His aunt made a queer clucking
noise in her throat. "You can't
make me, or; anybody else believe
that, Anthony Bradshaw! Not after
the way they acted. If the Wisters
wanted to belong they had the
same chance as anybody else"
Did they?" he asked.
Mercy sakes! You knows well
as do that every lady in the WI.
lage called on her. Did she ever re-
turn call? She did not! Nice as
pie, she was In her own house, but
she didn't invite one of 'cm to come
back. Why even Mr.. Dawson
called soon as they settled here and
invited them to join our church ami
Mark Wister told him right out

CHAPTER THREE

MISS ADDIE Bradshaw sat at
the roll-top desk In the surgery,
just as she had been sitting for
nearly 10 ycars, and spoke into the
telephone with evaporation and
experience that the years had
mcritcd:
"Millie Sims, he don't need the
doctor any MORN 1 do! Give the
child n good physic, put ii mustard
plaster on his chest for 20 minutes
and keep him in the house nntil
he's over it. You know the doctors
too busy to be running in every
time somebody gets a cold" She
put the receiver down with an en-
prrssivc cmck.
Whats this, Addic! Spelling my
business again" Her nephew stood
i'll the doorway, filling it with his
height, topped with touslcd head
and eyes still sleepy.
There's some as'd think him
homcly," Addic thought, but
think mes got the incest face I ever
saw" Aloud she said, Fine bust
ness the Simses are! They amt
paid bill since your grandfather
stopped sending them to save
stamps. You can shave after
breakfast, Anthony. I got hot
cakes"
He followed her into the dining
room and sat down at the head of
The table. The morning sun
streamed through the shining
panes OF the window, past pots of
plants marching in still little rows
on sill and shelf, and fell warmly
on his face. 1t lighted every corner

State Youth Participates
In Allied Raid Upon Maxim

As a member OF the United States
Marine raiders who annihilated a
japanese force on Maxim Island in the
Gilbert group. Vernon C. Akers, well
known Butte boy, put to good use the
commando tactics he had learned in
long days of training for hit and run
action against the enemy.
So far as is known, Vernon, who Is
the son of Jesse L. Akers, veteran Of
World war l, and Mrs. George Akers,
Butte artist, was the only Montana
boy among the picked outfit of
superior fighting men who wiped out
garrison Of approximately 300 jap
anese on Maxim, destroyed three
enemy wireless stations and a large
two seaplanes and other valuable
enemy installations in two-day
action beginning Aug. II.
The Maxim action was the first in
which the Leatherneck commands
saw action in the present war. The
force is made up entirely of volunteers
chosen on their records in other
branches of the Marine corps, and
Akers, a radio-man, has been con-
nected with it since its establishment
Several months ago, while he was
being trained for his role in the super
mobile and uper-streamlined unit
Vernon wrote to his parents as fol-
lows:
We will hike today, and we leave
here at eight in the morning for an
other all-day and all-night hike II
is rugged life, but then it Is a lot
easier getting into condition than it
would be having the Japs put us into
condition chasing us because We
hadn't been trained.
Il really like it here with this bunch
of men. No fooling, I'd walk on the
stumps of my legs to stay with them.
Guess what I am going to eat al,
day tomorrow? A handful of rice, two
carrots. one onion and two strips OF
bacon. That, by the way, is one days
ration for us on the march. 1t is to get
us used to what to do, and how to get
along on little. The rest Of the time
we are fed like kings"
Not only were the Marine COM
mandoS trained to Subsist on very little
food, but they were also trained in
jungle warfare, trained to be tough
to meet any emergency as evidenced
by another letter in which Vernon
stated:
Il can sink a steel blade at 20 PAGES
two inches into a tree four out OF
five throws. have a good knife, too
I just about ruined it learning. but
seemed to catch the knack. Now I can
have better knife and not have tc
give it such a beating. Most of the
men are good knife men,"

were headed by 1t. Col Evans F.. Carl

NeU Form Available
For Farm Defernents

Ranch and farm employers now may
use new form AZ for requesting &C.
cupational deferments for employees,
Maj. S. H. Mitchell, acting director of
selective service for Montana. says.
The new FORM" he said, SIS in
tended to give ranchers and farmers
opportunity to describe fully the case
involved, including statements of the
size of the farm or ranch operation,
the importance of the employee to
agricultural production and the pos
sibility of replacing the employe.
ANY employer who has an employee
now in ga or BIB classification
should complete one of these forms
Immediately if he wishes to have the
employe considered for occupational
deferment. The employer should not
wait until the employe is called for a
physical examination or is in i'm
mediate prospect Of induction"
He said that form 42-A, on which
industrial employers make application
for deferment of necessary men, also
has been reduced from a four-page
to a two-page document, with all
necessary questions retained on the
reduced form.
Browning chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1941-1953, 1942-10-30

that the best sections were already
taken, and the squatter had the first
right to them, and was quite ready to
fight for their retention
BY this time, there arose another
question. The lands sold at auction
were undoubtedly the best; then came
the private sales, leaving the worst
for those who were unable to avail
themselves of either of the foregoing.
Was it not an injustice that as high a
price should be asked for the worst
as for the better land?
Again, the distribution of the money
from the sales was a cause of trouble.
Henry Clay thought this money should
go to the states as whole, but not so
Jackson, although he admitted that
1.-The speedy settlement of these lands
constitutes the true interest of the Re-
public as he phrased it, with the add
ed political stunt of flattering the
farmers.
By the Distribution-Pre-Em ption
law under Tyler in l841, 10 percent of
the price of lands sold was to go to
the states where the sales took place,
the remainder to go to all the state,
distribution to cease when import
duties exceeded 10 percent"
Enacted Under Lincoln
The Homestead law was enacted
under president Lincoln, and the first
homestead entry made Jan. l, 1868.
With its terms, we are all reasonably
familiar, and to it many owe their
homes in Montana After it was in OPP
Grafton, the Presumption law was
still in force
But what has all this to do with
Montana history?" it may be asked !;
and the reply should be. Everything"
For without this land hunger, and the
ability to satisfy it, there would have
been no Montana for another half a
century, or longer. The miners did not
come here to make homes for them
selves, and only with the arrival of
the actual settlers were the founda-
tons of the state laid, Jackson was

OUR CHIEF PLAYGROUND

There are many sides to the subject of
what Key West will be after the war is
over, and sport and recreation should be i'll
Guided among them.
The chief project in the line of sports
is the proposed stadium. Every effort
should be made to have the stadium COM
f,leted by next spring. Or early summer, as
Gerald Saunders. chairman of the Stadium
Committee, says he hopes will be the case,
because, even though we are at war, whole
some sport is really part of the war-effort
if for no other reason than the diversion 1t
creates. The grimness of war can be better
withstood if we have diversions 10 make Us
forget it sometimes.
The Key West Yacht Club, which is
now carrying on in a modest way, has
good chance now, were its members not too
busy to revive sailboat racing in Key
West
All types of racing were held in Key
West back in the old days, but the type
which met with the greatest popularity was
that among small boats of the dingey size.
Inc racing UOdJ THAI I1du CiiC SlOoCOoI
number of followers was dingey named
the Vigilant. That was back in the mid mic
nineties when boat of that name defended;
the American Cup. The Key, West, Vjjaailapt
defeated boats half larger than sheawas'
and with twice as much sa H::a'fr' -oo : - - =.
The clubhouse of the Key West Yacht
Club is situated in the Garrison Blight,
which is an excellent body of water while
the war is on in which to hold races. I'm
less one tries, it is hard for him to picture
the fun and pleasure he can have racing
dingeys and skiffs in the Garrison Blight.
Ask the boys who sail their boats in the
blight, what exciting times they have, par
ticularly so when races are closely con-
tested.
Now, on a small scale, and after the
war, on.a large scale, Key West should
drop back to the days when the sea was our
chief playground.

ADVANCING In THE ALEUTIANS

American forces, operating in the
Aleutian Islands, have established an adj
vanced base in the Andreanof Islands, more
than two hundred and fifty miles west of
Dutch Harbor, the main American base in
the North Pacific.
The successful operation of large
convoy, which occupied the new base, can
hardly be scored as a Spectacular triumph,
but it is nevertheless an encouraging de-
velopment The japanese offered no OPP
position as the Army completed critical
landing operations and set up useful air
field, able to accommodate flying fortress
es as we'll as pursuit planes.
The Andreanof Islands begin two hum
bred and forty-five miles from Dutch Har-
Dor, stretching westward for about Two
hundred and fifty miles, the last in the
group being one hundred and twenty-five
miles east of Kiska. the japanese main base
in the Aleutians.
From the new base, bombing attacks
against the Japanese will present feweB
difficulties. This means, n nae punissh,ln1eps
for the Japanese eNpe dition which has al
ready suffered heavy losses from eAmeri-
can attacks. Moreover, the new base will
present barrier to any Japanese effort to
extend the foothold, now precariously en-
trenched on Kiska, Aggattu and Attu.
