CHAPTER EIGHT

THE COUNTRY unfolded below
Brooks plane like a huge brown
carpet, occasionally dotted by scat
tered buildings Of an estancia, with
their inevitable even lines Of euca-
lyptus and poplars standing boldly
against the power Of the constant
pampas winds. Great herds Of cat
tie slid by like notified lakes.
Horses ran wildly at the sound OF
the plane, their shaggy names fly
ing in the wind. Great stacks Of
yellow maize fanked the enormous
barns.
This Is strange country" Brooks
said almost dreamily. You Will
curse the constant winds, the
monotony Of these open plains and
vet you will learn to love 1t. Once
it gets in your blood you will never
want to leave"

said eagerly. IT'S the vastness Of

farther apart, as the plane raced
westward. There were fewer plowed
fields and more open range country,
where great herds OF white-faced
Herefords roamed at will.
Fifty odd years ago, when my
father first came out here from
England, 1t was really a wild coun-
try" Brooks was saying. The
estancleros had great tracts Of
lanL but little else. 1t meant hard
work from daylight until long after
dark. Most estancias had only little
shacks to live in-no palacios like
you see down there. Seems strange
now. Father had more than twenty
thousand hectareas OF land and
still was poor man as far as
money was concerned"

Prince Of The Pampas
by Lois Ely and John Fleming

gauchos who roamed these plains
were cattlemen. They thought
farming had no romance, no dig
nifty. They were nomads who lived
wherever they happened to be. AT
night they slept under the stars
and killed their food as they needed
it. But even the cattle business was
poor business then. These plains
were overrun with half-wild criolla
longhorns that were hardly worth
roping except for their hides"
"You mean there was no world
market for Argentine beef?" Terry
asked.
Nothing but the tasajo, the salt
ed dried beef that was shipped to
SPAIN"
But what changed all this?"
at was like a fairy tale" Brooks
said with a CLINT Of excitement
burning in his dark eyes. with the
coming of refrigeration the tide
suddenly turned. Those early Eng
fish and Irish estancieros were far
sighted. Their beef could be shipped
now to every port in the world. The
finest strains of cattle and sheep
were quickly imported from Eng
land, Australia and New Zealand
to improve our wild roaming herds.
The estancieros grew rich over
night"
Those must have been thrilling
days" Terry said softly.
YES" Brooks agreed. I've often
wished I could have lived them. The
challenges seemed so much greater.
Things are too easy for us now!"
Terry was startled by the fierce
note in his voice. Could there be
crusader blood in this young prince
Of the pampas?
Raff opened one eye and then the
other.
Are you two still settling the
ills Of an unsettled world?"
I'VE couldn't leave it to chaps
like you" Brooks retorted.
He pointed below, where q num-
Der OF buildings stretched out IN
the sun. It looked like small city
with its's two-mile avenue Of tow
ering eucalyptus trees that bor-
dered the road leading In from the
main highway.
Terry was breathless as she
looked at the scene. The palacio
from the air looked for all the
world like the Chateau Frontenac
in Quebec. A great Normandy cas-
tie the size Of summer hotel. The
bright sun caught sparkling facets
Of light from the blue-green water
in the swimming pool.
The plane banked neatly and the
pampas wind whistled a tune
through the struts as Brooks
brought the plane In for a perfect
landing.

held a quality of dreaming rather
than of moroseness. 1t was like
looking into the black depths Of a

Your Health
Manual Laborers
Often Subject TO
Wrist Injuries


By HERMAN M. BuNDESEN. NJ. I
PERSONS who do a great deal
of manual labor are especially ex-
posed to injuries Of the wrist I'M
less reasonable care is taken. And
this is due to the fact that the
wrist is made up Of a number Of
bones; to be exact, il is made up OF
seven bones. They are arranged in
two rows like the letter as" lying
on its side. Most injuries to the
wrist occur in the bones nearest
the bones Of the forearm.
These injuries may consist OF
dislocation, or fracture or break
ing of the bone, and arise as a re-
suit Of accidents, such as falls on
the hand. Sprains Of the wrist are
also common, but, according TO
Doctor John d. Sheriff. Of Birm-
ingham, Alabama, no diagnosis Of
wrist sprain should be made until
an X-ray examination has been
made to make sure that break Of
the bones is not present.
Physicians Diagnosis
The physician, after carefully
examining the wrist, will decide
Just what X-ray pictures should
be taken and in what position the
hand should be held so that the
picture will be most likely to re-
veal the true damage, if any is
present. II is a good idea also to
have X-ray plates made Of both
wrists so that one may be COM
pared with the other, to deter
mine if anything is wrong.
In treating injuries Of the
wrist, an effort must be made to
bring the wrist back to its normal
function. That means, first, to
produce freedom from pain when
movements Of the wrist occur;
second, to maintain the carrying
and grasping power of the hand
and fingers; third, to maintain
strength and power of the wrist;
and, fourth, to make sure that
there will be sufficient wrist mo-
ton to allow normal functioning
of the hand.
Scsphoid Break
A break in one of the seven
wristbones known as the scaphoid
is best treated by putting the
wrist in n circular plaster cast.
The fingers are not included In
the cast, and early movement OF
the fingers is encouraged. Usu-
ally, the cast should be worn about
six weeks.
Sometimes the scaphoid bone Is
dislocated. Proper manipulation
or movement of the wrist may
force the bone back into its nor
NAL position. II this is unsuccess-
full, it may be necessary to re-
move the bone by means Of an
operation.
If, after treating a wrist frac-
ture or dislocation, as suggested
above, the pain and disability, es-
pecially stiffness, still persist, an
operation is often required. How
ever, before the operation Is per-
formed, it is suggested that a cast
be worn TO .eep the wrist inn
movable for several weeks. II this
does not bring improvement, 1t Is
probable that SON inflammation
of the joints or arthritis is pres
ent and operation will not be OF
any value.
Bear in mind that when a Sc
we're injury to the wrist occurs it
Is always important to have an
X-ray examination to determine
the location and extent Of the dam
age. Then the treatment which
will most quickly restore the func-
ton Of the wrist may be carried
out.
