ening, add sugar gradually, and

Nine -Minute Battle
Nearly 100 Nazi rocket planes
and single -engined fighters made
a pass at the rear of an American
bomber formation over Bremen
last month. Nine escortig Republic
Thunderbolts, their Double Wasps
roaring, broke the enemy forma-
tio, followed through the streams
of Nazi tracers and destroyed 17
of the enemla airplanes in a sav-
age nine -minute battle. Emerging
without a loss, the Thunderbolts
climbed back to escort the bom-
ber formation home.

Trees In Jungle
Have Jap Ears
The trees have ears—Japanese
ears— in the Southwest Pacific
island and it's worth your life to
be addressed as "Colonel" or Sir."
That's why the United States
War Department said jungle figh-
ters have taken to calling their
officers by their first names.
Accounts from men and officers
on Bougainville island in the Solo -
mans indicate that formalities of
military life have completely
disappeared in jungle warfare.
A private may address his
commanding afficer as Charlie
or Bob. Officers get ode navies
or nicknames, Japanese snipers
are adept at picking off the of -
Beers. So the officer wears no
insignia.
The enemy listens carefully
said the men. Snipers a few
hundred yards from a regimental
supply dump listened to the calls
going out from a field telephone.
Most of the calls were for
"Hipp," which was the name
given to a Major who was a
supply officer.
During the night the men said,
the Japs would call out;; "Hipp,
you're wanted on the telephone."
Gibraltar's Apes
Are Disappearing
It is reported from Gibraltar
that British Commandos have
been put on the trail of the Rock's
famous colony of monkeys which
have beg -un to disappear.
It was suspected that Axis
agents were poisoning the apes
in order to upset the local popu-
lation who believe the legend
that when the monkeys disappear
the British will leave Gibraltar.
The London Daily Mail said the
Commandos, led by a British of-
ficer whose title is "officer in
charge of apes," had been sent out
with strict instructions to clamber
over every part of the rock in
search of the missing monkeys
and that at the same time ape
"reinforcements" were being
rushed to Gilbraltar by sea and
air from Africa,

SYNOPSIS
Dave Sruce, out of a Job, ar-
rives at Wilbur Ferris' Cross -
Bar ranch. Curran, the foreman,
promises him a Job If he can
break a horse called Black .Dawn,
When he succeeds, he discovers
Curran expected the horse to kill
him. A girl named Lois rides up,
angry with Dave for breaking
"her" horse. She refuses to speak
to Dave even when he uses his
savings to pay off the mortga9e
en the small ranch she . shares
with her foster father, a. man
named Hooker. When Hooker is
killed by . a shot fired through the
window, Lois has Dave arrested
for murder. Encouraged by Cur-
ran, the local people have broken
into the jail and dragged Dave to
a tree where they are going to
hang him. Among the crowd Dave
sees Lois.
Disheveled, the clothes almost
torn from the upper part of his
body, Dave was thrust forward.
"Here y'are, Miss Lois," shout-
ed Curran exultantly. "Here's the
measly skunk who killed yore dad,
A man leaped from a horse's
back and led it forward. Dave
knew the procedure. The horse
would he driven from beneath
hien, and he would be left swing-
ing—the most painful form of
hanging, since it took a man per-
haps a full half -minute before ho
became unconscious.
But Lois drove her horse for-
ward. "Let him ride Black Dawn,"
she cried, . "He broke hint, didn't
he?"
Curran burst into a roar o!
laughter. "That's sure smart of
yuh, Miss Lois," he cried. "Yeah,
he broke Black Dawn, and Black
Dawn's goin' to break him—by the
neck!"
* ♦ *
Lois bent forward and whispered
in the stallion's ear, then slipped
to' the ground. "Git him up, fel-
lers," chortled Curran. "Bruce,
yore race is run, and yo're goin'
to do some real fancy high-steppin'
tangos. Say, ain't yuh got no hal-
ter on that hawss, Miss Lois?"
he continued.
"Ile doesi't need a halter. He'll
stand till I give the word to go."
Curran roared with glee. "That's
°'Yub ain't got nothiii
and yo're goin' to have the honor
of touchin' him off, accordin'. to
custom."
Dave straightened himself and
looked straight into the girl's
face. He didn't want to die, but
he had faced 'death too many
times to flinch from it now that
his time seemed to have come. But
through his mind old Hooker's
words were running;
"You promised. me you'll look
out for Lois if anything happens
to vie."
Those words, cut off by the
roar of the explosion from the as-
sassin's revolver. And, "She never
had a chance, poor kid."
Soniellow it seemed to Dave
that lie could go more easily if
Lois believed he was not old
Hooker's' murderer.
The girl was looking straight
back at him. In the darkness Dave
could see the dark gray pools of
her eyes, as if lit by an inner
fire.
Someone produced a rope and
flung it over the bough. Rough
hands laid hold of Dave and fas-
tened the other end about his
neck, fashioning a hangman's
knot. Dave had ceased to struggle.
He would go to his death at least
with dignity,
"Git one ., of them broncs!"
shouted Curran.

sure some hawss," he shouted,
'Deep outer his way when he does
git to movin', fellers, because he'll
move fast and quick. Fork this
hombre acrost him!"
.A. little cautiously, for the repu-
tation of the black stallion was
known to all, the group that held
Dave dragged him to Black D1,wn's
side and raised him, forcing one
leg across and thrusting the toe
of the boot into the stirrup. But
Black Dawn stood like a graven
image, utterly motionless, save for
,a trembling of his flanks.
. Dave wondered, incongruously
enough, why they hadn't bound
his arms. Then he remembered.
A strangling man claws instinc-
tively at the rope by which Ile is
suspended, prolonging the agonies
of death, and increasing the am-
usement that his hanging offers.
* *
Dave sat the black stallion dis-
dainfully, making no attempt at
resistance. But again he sought
Lois' eyes, and again he saw the
girl's eyes fixed on his. And all
of a sudden 'it seemed to hint as
if a triple understanding had been
effected—between himself and the
girl and the big horse. He felt that
BIack Dawn recognized his mas-
tery of him.
"We're just about ready, Miss
Lois," shouted Curran. ",rust a

Dave, Iooking contemptuously

Lois moved slowly forward. With
her eyes still fixed intently upon
Dave's, she had the appearance of
a sleep -walker. She stepped to
Black Dawn's side and laid her
hand upon his neck.

Reservoir Of Wheat
Ready For Europe
At least 1,000,000,000 bushels
of wheat, half of it in Canada,
will be available for shipment to
the hungry people of Europe if
the war there ends in 1944, the
Dominion bureau said last week
in a review of the wheat situa-
tion,
Argentina and Australia have
at total surplus of 500,000,000
bushels • available for export,
while Canadian surplus stocks
stood at 670,000,000 bushels on
October 1.
"This reservoir of wheat would
seem to hold, assurance that a
Europe liberated in 1944 and pro-
vided with adequate ocean ton-
nage Would not go short of
bread," said the bureau.
"Moreover, both Canada and
the United States will harvest an-
other wheat crop in the middle of
1944 and the United States is en-
deavoring to increase the acreage
under wheat for the 1944 harvest
by 14,000,000 acres."
