up the lane. She had on a red hat
and an old rusty black coat and a
purple dress. She had red stuff on
her lips and white powder on her
face. She hammered on the door.
"Yes?" Mama said, opening the
door just a little crack.
'Does a man name of Elmer
Pencil live here?" She clutched
lumpy worn pocketbook to her as
if she feared we might grab it.
Mama said, HE does, but he's
gone to town now. win you come
in?"
Got no time" she answered.
(Which way is town."
Mama showed her and then she
asked, What was he ina wagon,
or a buggy, or WHAT"
''In spring wagon with the roam
team" Mama told her, and she
turned and went striding down the
lane clutching the Iumpy, purse.
Elmer Pennen didn't come and
didn't come. Mama got supper
ready. Papa did the chores. The
lamps were lighted. 1t was nearly
bedtime W h N someone came
knocking at the door. Papa opened
it little. It was the sheriff.
'"This your team and wagon,
Fenton?"
Papa peered out into the dark.
Looks as if it is Where's Pennell?
Where'd you get it?"
Found it wandering along the
road. Pencil was found shot just
outside of town. Somebody musta
shot at him from the willows along
Kemp's creek. Know anybody that
held grudge against him?"
''Never did. Everybody liked
him around here. What IN the
world"
Mama spoke up then. She told
about the woman that had come
looking for him that afternoon. The
sheriff scratched his head.
Funny thing. The station-agent
said strange woman boarded the
/ three o'clock this afternoon dressed
about like that Didn't buy ticket
nor nothin! Funny thing!"
It was a funny thing. They never
found the woman. Elmer Pencil
never came back to work another
spring. And Mama kept saying, II
wonder. I wonder if he had a wife
and children. I wonder" Mama
always was a trifle curious.

ELMER PENNELL was our hired
II man. He'd been our hired man
for years and years, although
sometimes Papa couldn't pay him
much, if anything, Every spring
he'd come riding up on his old
bicycle from ''off somewheres-
No one ever asked him where he
spent the winters. He just came
and went as he pleased. But this
past winter he hadn't left at all.
I'd heard Mama mumbling about
it to Papa some nights when I was
supposed to be asleep in my trundle
bed near theirs.
why do you suppose he is stay
ing on all this winter? He never
did before" Mama always was a
trifle curious.
And Papa answered, ''Now Ellie,
let him alone. He helps enough
with the chores to pay for his
board and keep and l can use him
to help build the crib, come good
weather"
Us kids liked him around long
winter evenings. He had an old
banjo he'd strum and sing us funny
songs like The Baggage Coach
Ahead" He was a gay little man
with a small black moustache and
sparse black crinkly hair, but he
had muscles of iron and was as
tough and hard-fisted as a prize
fighter. He had a soft coaxing tone
to his voice and he sounded like
the mildest of men when he talked
or laughed. But he had a terrible
temper.
Those long winter nights when
we'd sit around the table playing
parchesi, Elmer Pennel would get
so mad when he didn't win that
he'd pick up the dice and the but
tons we used for men and throw
them across the kitchen until they
ratified like hail over the linoleum.
We children would go scampering
about gathering them up, and he
would stalk off to bed. And Cissy
always claimed he blinded Net, our
old roam mare, by slapping her
across the face with the reins.
Then one day towards spring,
Elmer took the spring wagon and
the roam team and went to town
for seed. And while he was gone,
woman came trudging across the
fields to our place from the rail-
road junction a mile away. We
children peeked from behind the
curtains and watched her coming

At the height of the Christmas

Persistent Grandpa

1t was the worst storm on record.
Finally the dam burst and a raging
torrent forced the townfolks to flee
to higher ground. From the hill,
as they looked down, they noticed
a straw hat float slowly downstream
for fifty feet or so. Then the hat
stopped, turned around and made
It's way upstream a similar dis

Most folks are blessed with pres

Anyway, no one can say that the

WASHINGTON, D. C. (NNPA)
- The senate last Tuesday voted
to deprive bureaucrats of their
chauffeurs and cut down on the
number of additional automobiles
to be purchased by the Govern
ment during the fiscal year be-
ginning July 1.
The amendment, proposed by
Senator Homer Furguson, Republi-
can, of Michigan, will affect chiefly
colored government employees.
Most government chauffeurs are
colored, except a few whites who
drive for the big shots, mainly
cabinet members.
While the restriction on the pur-
chase of government automobiles
and the use of chauffeurs applies
only to Federal Security-Labor
Department funds, the indications
were that the economy bloc will
seek to adopt similar restrictions
on other appropriation bills COM
ing before the senate.
During the debate on the amend
ment of Senator Paul H. Douglas,
Democrat of Illinois, to limit re-
placements of automobiles to so
per cent of those that are worn
out, it was broadly limited that
bureaucrats should use street cars,
buses, and taxiS, as do the tax
payers who support them.
Senator Douglas told the senate
that there are nine full-time
chauffeurs in the Labor Depart
tment in Washington, and thirty
seven in the Federal Security
Agency. He said there are forty-six
full-time chauffeurs to drive cars
carrying secretaries, administra-
tors, under secretaries, assistant
secretaries, assistants to the Sec
retaries, assistants to the under
secretaries, assistants to the assis-
tant secretaries, and heads of bu-
reaus.
eff there is one service in our
government which needs to have
it's waistline reduced, it is these

motor pools" Senator Douglas de-
clared.
Senator Bourke B. Hickenlooper,
Republican of Iowa, complained
that there may be seen in Rock
Creek Park in the mornings prob
ably 10000 government automo-
biles, "most of which seem to be
driven by Government chauffeurs,
taking lowef-echelon employees to
work so that they can get there
by 9 o'clock"
Senator Burnet r. Maybank,
Democrat of South Carolina, said
he had voted in the Senate Appro-
priatiens Committee to do away
with 1,760 chauffeurs. In addition
TO 1,760 regular chauffeurs, he
said, there are 5,280 on part-time.
When Senator Ferguson offered
the amendment on behalf of HIM
self and Senator Styles Bridges,
Republican of New Hampshire, to
reduce the number of chauffeurs,
it was accepted by Senator Dennis
Chavez, Democrat of New Mexico,
who was in charge of the bill, and
agreed to by the senate on voice
vote. u.t,,

in international work of the
Raha'i community. The Faith has
spread, according to the announce
ment, throughout the world since
lis birth in 1874 in Iran until to-
day some $500 Bahai centers are
found in 100 different countries
and territorial divisions.
Nine national Baha'i bodies exist
at present, the announcement
points out, elected respectively of
the Baha'is of the United States;
Canada, the British Isles, Germany
and Austria, egypt and the Sudan,
Iran, Ira, India, Pakistan and
Burma, and Australia and New
Zealand. Two new national Assem-
blies were formed on April "a of
this year, at conventions held in
Panama City, Panama, and Lima,
Peru, for Central and South Amer
lea, respectively.
The experience acquired by
these National Bahai Assemblies,
and the emergency of the inde-
pendent state of Israel, in fulfill
ment of Bahai prophecy, have
created conditions favorable for an
International Bahai Council, the

lst Hunting Accident Casualty Gets Shotgun Wound in Stomach

An Elmendorf Air Force Base Sergeant shot in the stomach by his own shotgun Monday after noon about 3 D. m. about a mile down the hill from Independence Mine, was the first hunting acci- dent casualty for the 1851 seas on in this area.
 The local Highway Patrol of- ficer who answered the energen- cy call was unable to account for the accident except that the shot was self-inflicted. How the sol- dier happened to be carrying a shotgun was also a mystery. Ac- cording to the officer, the acci- dent victim was with a large party of servicemen.
 The sergeant, whose name was not immediately released, was be- Heved to be attached to the 11th Weather Squadron.
 The wounded man was brought to Valley Hospital where pr. C. c. Bailey rendered emergency treat ment. When the ambulance sum- -fnoned from Base Hospital got stuck in a ditch enroute, Dr. Bailey drove the soldier to the Post in his own station wagon.
 The soldier was in good condi ton when he arrived at the hospi tai, Dr. Bailey reported. His bleeding, apparently caused by a superficial wound, had been con- trolled, and he was not in state of shock.
 Barring unforeseen complica- tons, Bailey predicted, the acci- dent victim should make an un- eventful recovery.

10 ACRE FIRE AT SHEEP MOUNTAIN

Fire lighters Of the OlV1s1on ot Forestry were called to a 10 acre fire near Sheep Mountain Lodge this weekend.
 The fire was discovered Friday by the Lodge proprietor, who with 20 men from a construction crew who were nearby, stop ped the fire from spreading by beating the flames with sacks. Six of the Palmer station were com pelled to dig a fire line, encircl- ing the area.
 %Lack of rain in the Sheep Mountain area has increased the fire dangers, fire aids said. It is believed that the fire was started by hunters sighting in their rifles with tracer bullets.
 Although still burning, the fire was under control after two days and nights of work.
 Don DeHart, Forester of Fire Control District l, estimated that approximately 10000 acres have been destroyed by fire this past year, with approximately 265 fires in this area and Fairbanks, 154 of these occurring here. None of these fires have been inaccess- ible and have meant attendance each time.
 In spite of an apparant abun- dance of rainfall, caution must still be exercised to prevent fur ther forest distruction DeHart said.
