CHAPTER FIVE SANTA LAND AT LAST

AS the hawk came down again Bucky remembered the lasso at his waist. It was his last chance. He had practiced for hours roping the door knob at home. He could make it circle in beautiful sing ing arc above his head, and throw ii straight and true.
 Now, since he'd gotten on Snow Birds back, it was tiny like him. seif-hardly more than a piece of tWine. Still 1t was a laSSo and 1t was his only chance.
 He swung the lariat above his head. The hawk came on, his eyes glittering. With one hand and both legs Bucky clung to Snow Bird. Whit his free hand he threw his loop.
 In an instant Bucky was nearly vanked from Snow Birds back as both he and the bird were dragged suddenly towards the ground.
 Bucky had caught the hawk around the throat and the half choked hawk was pulling them all earthward. Just in time Bucky

recovered from his amazement and let go the rope. The hawk plunged down and disappeared in the great forests below.
 But all was not we'll. Snow Bird had been sorely hurt and soon they began dropping slowly to earth. They landed in snow cov- cred field. Bucky was afraid he would sink over his head in the snow but he need not have for ried. The moment he stepped off Snow Birds back he took his real shape again and was as tall as any other seven-years-old boy.
 Now he held Snow Bird in his hands and cleaned his wounds. One of his wings was torn.
 "I'm afraid I won't be able to fly again for a long time," said the bird. You must go on by yourself"
 Bucky said nothing. So the bird said, Speak. There is no need to be so sad"
 Bucky said, I'm not much of a cowboy anymore. I've lost my guns and horse and lariat. Guess I wouldn't be much help to Santa now
 Snow Bird considered for a while. You can still say that Yip- pi al ki-ay,' san't you? And you're still the Terror of the West. What a terror you were fighting off that hawk"
 Bucky felt better. "I'll carry you,' he offered.
 But Snow Bird said no. "1 will
The Nome nugget., 1950-11-29

stay here. I am a snow bird and
 this is my country"
 Bucky fixed a warm nest of evergreens for Snow Bird, bade him farewell and began to push northward.
 But soon he discovered there were animals in the forests through which he was travelling! Not buffaloes, certainly. A cow boy could have managed those. But strange creatures darting among the trees! Bucky's heart pounded. A branch suddenly
 broke above him.
 The boy started running. He tripped in the snow, rolled over and over, leaped to his feet, crash ed into a tree. Scratched and bruised, he ran on wildly. As it grew dark he had no idea what direction he was going. By now he hardly cared. He wanted only to escape the animal he knew
 was waiting for him in the dark. He could feel the ground slop- ing upwards. He knew he was climbing hill. When he came to the top he saw the most beautiful thing he had seen in all his life: lights at the bottom of the hill.
 "It's Santa Land" he sobbed. He wiped his eyes, shouted "yippi ali ki-ay" and raced down the hill.

Warlike when the other Indians became our friends. They moved further and further north until they reached the North Pole and of course you must visit the far north lands to see them.
 They changed their name to Jindians so people wouldn't get them mixed up with Indians and think they were friendly.
 The Jindians were very angry with Santa Claus. The Jindians said they just naturally hated good people. But the true reason was because Santa never brought them anything for Christmas. ESQ.," said Jindian Chief Hurri- cane, i've fix so nobody get Christmas"
 They crept into Santa Land and stole food and toys. They threw snowballs at the workers. They had war dances and scared the little folk half to death with their whoGping. But never before to-

Suddenly his fairies and brownies shouted and screamed and ran after him. Got one! I got one of the Jindi- ans!" gasped Patrick Tweedle- knees, the oldest dwarf in Santa Land. He was hauling along Tby the collar a trembling creature, dirty and red eyed.
 And what a shabby, shaking, shameful looking Jindian he isl! jeered Tweedleknees.
 Stop, stop!" cried Santa. He went up to the captive and peered at him closely.
 "Who are you?" he asked.
 "Sir - s-sir," mumbled the Wretched one. "I am Kid Buck aroo, Terror of the West"

CHAPTER SIX BAD TIMES IN SANTA LAND

Meanwhile, strange and awful things had been happening in Santa Land.
 On this particular night Mrs. Claus woke from a deep sleep. ''Santa Santa" she cried, shak- ing Santa's bed. "There's some thing bothering the reindeer. Lis ten!"
 Santa, instantly wide awake, sat up and listened. He heard maid trampling in the stables. Santa pulled on his boots and coat and raced from the house. Lights went on all over Santa Land. All the little workers, Wakened by the noise, poured from their hous- es-some still in their pajamas and nightgoWns.
 Marlowe, the sledmaker, ran by Santa's side.
 Don't know" said Santa. "Tle vour bathrobe around you. We can't all be getting colds just be- fore Christmas.
 At the stables they found the reindeer skittering around their stalls, rolling their eyes with fright, and pounding the floor with their hooves. While the brownies lit lanters, Santa went to the deer, talking gently, sooth- ing them.
 Don't see anything the mat ter" said Pudding. 'Guess the wind frightened them"
 Suddenly there was cry from the far end of the barn. Dewey, the whistle-maker, burst from a stall and shouted: "Dasher has gone! Our very best deer has gone!"
 The little folk rushed to the stall. It was empty. They hunted through the barn and the stable yard. Dasher was nowhere to be found. Santa stood silent and se- rious. The workers gathe d around him crying, "Jindians again."
 And the workers shook with fright. For weeks the Jindians had been annoying the Santa Land workers.
 Now you are wondering what Jindians are. Everyone knows that all the Indians today are good and friendly people. We'll, Jindi- ans are the Indians who stayed

FLETCHER RET|RES
As MONTANA POWER
ADVERTISING MAN

Butte, April 5.-R. H. (Bob)
Fletcher, advertising and public re-
lations manager of the Montana
Power company for the last nine
years and one of the leading au-
thorities on Treasure State history
and legend, has retired effective
April 1 under the c~ompany's sys-
tem-wide retirement plan.
F. w. Bird, president and gen.
eral manager of the company, in
announcing the retirement, paid
high tribute to Mr.. Fletcher's serv-
ice and achievements during the
years he was with the company.
"Bob Fletcher's absence will be
felt keenly by the Montana Power
company" Mr.. Bird said. During
the years he has headed the adj
vertising department, Bob has
done an outstanding job in all &C
with which he has been
connected, and he has won many
friends for the company and HIM
self throughout the state of Mon
tana. 1t is my sincere hope that
his future will be as full of happi-
ness and achievement as his past
has been-and l know that senti-
ment is shared by all his friends
and outside the company"
Mr.. Fletcher has gained inter-
rational recognition for the states
highway historical markers, which
le initiated and wrote. The rustic
markers, which have been read by
thousands of Montana residents
md tourists, were designed by Mr..
Fletcher. Copy for the markers,
in his ~typically western
tyle, has been described and prais-
d in numerous booklets, magazine
nd newspaper articles.
He has visited every section of
Iontana, including many little
nown areas far from highways or

nee and his study of Montana his

SPORTS
Track Season Open
By owe Anderson


With the advent of spring, tract
at Laurel high school is also get
ting under way with 80 hopeful'
turning out for the cinder sport
Laurel has only one man with ex'
perience from the previous season
that being Keith Willis in the Az
yard run. Last year Keith placed
sixth in this event at the state
irterscholastic meet in Missoula.
The track hopefuls have held in
door sessions up to date in the
gym three times a week, stressing
calisthenics and muscle stretching
exercises. Getting in physical shape
is being emphasized mostly in the
indoor workouts, but a few funda-
mentals in running form and
s~printing is also being taught. This
week workouts will be once a day
OH the oval outside if the weather
permits. The coaches have planned
a five star placement test to deter
mine the individuals best events as
500 as workouts can be scheduled
outside.
Three men will coach track this
year, the three being last years
coach, Leon Foote, and newcomers
to Laurel high school athletic staff,
Bob White, and P. j. Roberts. MI.
Foote will handle the field events
which will include the shot put,
discus, and broad jump. Bob White
will manage the sprints and low
hurdles while Mr.. Roberts will
coach the hurdlers, distance run
and %javelin throwers.
Four track meets have been
scheduled for this years track
Laurel will participate in
the Billings senior high school in
vitational, to be held in Billings,
and also the Rocky Mountain COL
invitational, to be held on the
Mountain college campus. A
tentative meet has been scheduled
Powell at the Wyoming town,
and the coaches also are planning
or a home town track meet if ar
engagements with opponents can be
made. The track season will be
nighlighted with the state inter-
scholastic track meet at Missoula
10 and 20.
This years squad is largely COM
posed of underclassmen, some of
which r showing good talent. The
lpperclassmen are represented
argely by football and basketball
ettermen seeking to put them
selves in condition for next years
,ridiron and basketball sessions.

They're Not Bored

If your guests yawn while you are
visiting them, don't be alarmed
it may be the lighting in your room.
If your guest, seated in an unlighted
corner of your living room, looks
directly at you, sitting under a
reading lamp, her eyes must make
an adjustment from dark to light.
Over a period of time this leads to
muscle fatigue. You can relieve the
situation by turning on a light near
your guest. Overhead lights in any
room are helpful in eliminating that
spot lighting effect that causes eye
strain.

Douglas Fir

Lumber cut from the same tree
or log of Douglas fir consists of
several classes of grades suitable
for a variety of purposes. The in
ner part of the log will usually be
tight-knotted although a r E.
grained, while finer-grained ma
terial is found toward the outer
edges. In larger, older logs the
tight-knotted center area may be
surrounded with a layer of lumber
with black or loose knots which
eventually give way to a layer of
clear wood.
