SUBSCRIPTION RATES: Year $5.00—6 Months $3.00—3 Months $1.50 (In Advance) Polio Vaccine Short While no one can predict when polio will strike or to what extent, figures seem to point up the fact the case rate is two and one-half times greater than average for the past 15 years. It is surely gratifying to know that gamma globulin is a temporary relief from the deadly affects of this paralyzing demon. So far experiments show that protection from polio lasts only about 5 weeks. But even five weeks relief is progress, when you consider for years no hope was seen. For the most part, until now, victims were doomed to be cripples for life with very little chance of alleviation. Gamma globulin is a part of human blood, which when injected, gives effective protection even though temporary, vaccine to give longer lasting immunity, is still in a highly experimental stage. Those dimes you give to the National Foundation help to keep scientific work going on. Perhaps to hasten the day when a permanent cure is realized. A limited amount of gamma globulin is available and may soon be released for this area. Since the supply is short only private physicians will receive enough to take care of their patients, and only to those who come in contact with polio. Mass inoculations can only take place in epidemic stricken areas. The vaccine is being controlled by the office of Defense Mobilization. Gamma Globulin is not owned by the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. Although a temporary effective device is available it is important to realize that supplies are short and must be handled carefully. But rays of hope, loom on the scientific horizon.

PHONES 37-1574-5 FORBIDDEN RIVER IT WAS no surprise to Rawls to find, in the morning, that Jenkyn had made his escape. The cargo had been transferred, and now the prepared to pull out, leaving her sister ship behind. Rawls, ad usual, was at the wheel. "It you try any tricks," Whirter warned him grimly, "I'll shoot you. I would follow such a course with regret, mindful of the very real services you have rendered us. But I count the Cause bigger than you or myself Or all of us put together. Make no mistake about that." He meant it, as Rawls knew. But he'd made up his own mind as completely. This had gone far enough—the the whole rash scheme. Mad as it had been, Whirter had gotten this far, and he might manage to win. Once embarked overland, his men would have no other choice than to back him to the limit, fighting like devils when called upon to do so. if the Indians were convinced that he was on their side they might Wipe out the gold camps, and go on from there to such an orgy of terror as Whirter had first conceived, while Whirter made a run back downriver with the loot that he hoped, would revive the faltering Confederacy. No one could deny that Whirter was giving all he had, risking his life at every turn, for something in which he believed. Now that Kathleen was fairly safe, Rawis Knew that he could do no less. When Earnshaw became convinced hat disaster had overtaken the he would take the back to the Missouri, it it were humanly possible to do so. Loaded now with the proper cargo for Fort Benton, Earnshaw would get it there if he could. There was still one way to put s stop to Whirter's ambitious plan. if the was run hard aground, so solidly that it could not De gotten off the Indians would think of the lot of guns and whiskey ready for the taking. And in their present mood, they'd take! It had to be done today, before the meeting could be held and an alliance worked out with Whirter. Rawis had no illusions as to his own chances, once he wrecked the Like the others, he would not be going back. He'd try to find Kathleen for a last word, in the darkness before dawn, before transferring to the . In the confusion, he hadn't Been able to locate her There had not been much time. Perhaps it was as well, but it was hard to come to the end of a dream, to Know that the awakening of cold reality had forever shattered it. He could almost feel her beside him, as she had stood so many times, watching the river, the moving shores in ever-changing panorama. It seemed as it he could smell the perfume that he always associated with her a subtle fragrance, bewitching as her quick smile. This was no dream. He grew cold with realization, finding her beside him. "You don't seem glad to see me, Denny," Kathleen murmured. "Am as dreadful as the glimpse of a Sioux?" "How can I feel glad about you being here, thinking of the Sioux?" he asked. "On the , you at least had a chance. That was the one thing that made this journey easier for me, the hope that you might come out all right." "Meaning that you didn't expect to come back? Do you think it would seem right to me, in that case?" There was no coquetry here, but a realization of facts and a frank facing of them. "I like it better this way, Denny. I'd have come along, even if it hadn't been suggested that I should." So Whirter had been responsible. She saw the trouble in his face and her own voice was steady. "You spoke as though we were getting toward the end of some thing—to the river's end, perhaps. I'm not asking what you meant. But whatever you were going to do, you must go ahead just the same. Nothing can be allowed to make any difference. What must be done is bigger than we are, Denny." He was silent, staring ahead unmindful of the sharp, up thrust of boulders from the river bottom, of the torn froth of the current, so like his own mind. She had made a declaration of more than faith, and her willingness to be with him in such a situation was both up lifting and depressing. His rage at Whirter threatened to turn from chill to explosive flame. Urging Kathleen to this Journey was proof that the man had cast aside all qualms, that he now would stop at nothing to get his way. Rawls had planned to run the hard aground and be done without delay. Now his hands on the wheel were clammy with sweat, and they continued to creep upriver, the hours wearing by, his mind a torment. He noted landmarks mechanically, out of long habit. It would be better to wait until night was close at hand, now that Kathleen was along. That would increase the distance back to the , and lengthen the hazards of reaching it, but ally escape from a stranded boat would be impossible by daylight. Clouds came with the afternoon, piling dark against the horizon, torn by lightning. For some miles the river had been deep and sluggish, but now it hurried as if impatient to reach some secret rendezvous. The engines made frenzied labor, driving against the sharpness of the current. A couple of hundred feet upstream, Rawls saw what he had been waiting for, half hoping not to find. The outlines were sharply etched the fluted water turning to an angry boll as it slid past told his experienced eyes the exact quality of the obstruction. This was a knifelike rock, and once on that, there would be no getting the off again. Even if grasshoppering was possible, the bottom would be sliced out. Kathleen had returned to the pilothouse. Rawls looked at her, marveling at the serenity of her face as she gave him a quick smile, feeling his own torn and twisted, but knowing that the moment could not be compromised. His eyes ranged the shores, where once more the cottonwoods came close to the banks, shivering to the surge of the wind. The engines, driving at full speed, seemed almost to scream— For an instant he didn't know what had happened.... It was too big, too fraught with confusion, a wild wrenching and twisting as though the boat had been caught in giant hands that were tearing agony; an ear-shattering sound. The razor edge of the rock was still ahead, and then, as he was Hung violently backward and the fuss of escaping steam rose like the shriek of devils, Rawls understood. The long-overstrained hullers had burst. He found himself in the water, surrounded by parts of the disintegrating packet. The explosion had torn it apart, smashing with relentless power, and already fire was racing to take over what the spite tit the steam had left. This was not at all as Rawis had pictured such an event in his mind. It had happened with such speed that the pilothouse had been torn loose and flung aside, along with whatever happened to be on it. Most of the had not fared so well, nor had the others aboard her. But his thought still was for Kathleen. She had been beside him— Debris was everywhere, coating the river in a tangled jumble, making it hard to pick out individual objects. Something stirred in the water, and he swam that way, grabbed at a thrashing arm, whitely up flung. Kathleen's head came out of the water, hair streaming, her eyes wide and dazed. Her fingers found his own wrist and tightened convulsively, but it was a possessive clutch, free of panic Only now was the full effect of the disaster beginning to appear. There was a curious lack of screams and cries, testifying to the swift destructiveness of the first blast. The tormented noise of wood and metal shrieked in final disintegration, the crackle of Barnes rising as the other subsided. From the shores the silence remained unbroken, but several figures came into view, like phantom spirits conjured out of hell: men who moved soundlessly and watched half in bewilderment, half in avid expectancy. The startling end of the had taken the Indians as much by surprise as anyone, and they had not yet adjusted themselves to the full meaning of the disaster, to the fact that the whiskey and the guns were gone". Some of that daze gripped Rawls, as though this was a dream from which he must presently awaken. He saw a warrior wade out from shore, slipping once and almost falling, but going with methodical purpose. About him in this moment was none of the theatrical pomp of blazing attack, yet he was doubly sinister as he caught something that floated and started dragging a dead man to shore for the dreadful business of securing a trophy. Most of the crew must have perished in the explosion. For the others there would be no mercy if they reached the bank, and the thought dispelled the fog in Rawis mind, jerked him back to reality. He must reach shore with Kathleen— CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO IT WAS no surprise to Rawls to find, in the morning, that Jenkyn had made his escape. The cargo had been transferred, and now the prepared to pull out, leaving her sister ship behind. Rawls, ad usual, was at the wheel. "It you try any tricks," Whirter warned him grimly, "I'll shoot you. I would follow such a course with regret, mindful of the very real services you have rendered us. But I count the Cause bigger than you or myself Or all of us put together. Make no mistake about that." He meant it, as Rawls knew. But he'd made up his own mind as completely. This had gone far enough—the the whole rash scheme. Mad as it had been, Whirter had gotten this far, and he might manage to win. Once embarked overland, his men would have no other choice than to back him to the limit, fighting like devils when called upon to do so. if the Indians were convinced that he was on their side they might Wipe out the gold camps, and go on from there to such an orgy of terror as Whirter had first conceived, while Whirter made a run back downriver with the loot that he hoped, would revive the faltering Confederacy. No one could deny that Whirter was giving all he had, risking his life at every turn, for something in which he believed. Now that Kathleen was fairly safe, Rawis Knew that he could do no less. When Earnshaw became convinced hat disaster had overtaken the he would take the back to the Missouri, it it were humanly possible to do so. Loaded now with the proper cargo for Fort Benton, Earnshaw would get it there if he could. There was still one way to put s stop to Whirter's ambitious plan. if the was run hard aground, so solidly that it could not De gotten off the Indians would think of the lot of guns and whiskey ready for the taking. And in their present mood, they'd take! It had to be done today, before the meeting could be held and an alliance worked out with Whirter. Rawis had no illusions as to his own chances, once he wrecked the Like the others, he would not be going back. He'd try to find Kathleen for a last word, in the darkness before dawn, before transferring to the . In the confusion, he hadn't Been able to locate her There had not been much time. Perhaps it was as well, but it was hard to come to the end of a dream, to Know that the awakening of cold reality had forever shattered it. He could almost feel her beside him, as she had stood so many times, watching the river, the moving shores in ever-changing panorama. It seemed as it he could smell the perfume that he always associated with her a subtle fragrance, bewitching as her quick smile. This was no dream. He grew cold with realization, finding her beside him. "You don't seem glad to see me, Denny," Kathleen murmured. "Am as dreadful as the glimpse of a Sioux?" "How can I feel glad about you being here, thinking of the Sioux?" he asked. "On the , you at least had a chance. That was the one thing that made this journey easier for me, the hope that you might come out all right." "Meaning that you didn't expect to come back? Do you think it would seem right to me, in that case?" There was no coquetry here, but a realization of facts and a frank facing of them. "I like it better this way, Denny. I'd have come along, even if it hadn't been suggested that I should." So Whirter had been responsible. She saw the trouble in his face and her own voice was steady. "You spoke as though we were getting toward the end of some thing—to the river's end, perhaps. I'm not asking what you meant. But whatever you were going to do, you must go ahead just the same. Nothing can be allowed to make any difference. What must be done is bigger than we are, Denny." He was silent, staring ahead unmindful of the sharp, up thrust of boulders from the river bottom, of the torn froth of the current, so like his own mind. She had made a declaration of more than faith, and her willingness to be with him in such a situation was both up lifting and depressing. His rage at Whirter threatened to turn from chill to explosive flame. Urging Kathleen to this Journey was proof that the man had cast aside all qualms, that he now would stop at nothing to get his way. Rawls had planned to run the hard aground and be done without delay. Now his hands on the wheel were clammy with sweat, and they continued to creep upriver, the hours wearing by, his mind a torment. He noted landmarks mechanically, out of long habit. It would be better to wait until night was close at hand, now that Kathleen was along. That would increase the distance back to the , and lengthen the hazards of reaching it, but ally escape from a stranded boat would be impossible by daylight. Clouds came with the afternoon, piling dark against the horizon, torn by lightning. For some miles the river had been deep and sluggish, but now it hurried as if impatient to reach some secret rendezvous. The engines made frenzied labor, driving against the sharpness of the current. A couple of hundred feet upstream, Rawls saw what he had been waiting for, half hoping not to find. The outlines were sharply etched the fluted water turning to an angry boll as it slid past told his experienced eyes the exact quality of the obstruction. This was a knifelike rock, and once on that, there would be no getting the off again. Even if grasshoppering was possible, the bottom would be sliced out. Kathleen had returned to the pilothouse. Rawls looked at her, marveling at the serenity of her face as she gave him a quick smile, feeling his own torn and twisted, but knowing that the moment could not be compromised. His eyes ranged the shores, where once more the cottonwoods came close to the banks, shivering to the surge of the wind. The engines, driving at full speed, seemed almost to scream— For an instant he didn't know what had happened.... It was too big, too fraught with confusion, a wild wrenching and twisting as though the boat had been caught in giant hands that were tearing agony; an ear-shattering sound. The razor edge of the rock was still ahead, and then, as he was Hung violently backward and the fuss of escaping steam rose like the shriek of devils, Rawls understood. The long-overstrained hullers had burst. He found himself in the water, surrounded by parts of the disintegrating packet. The explosion had torn it apart, smashing with relentless power, and already fire was racing to take over what the spite tit the steam had left. This was not at all as Rawis had pictured such an event in his mind. It had happened with such speed that the pilothouse had been torn loose and flung aside, along with whatever happened to be on it. Most of the had not fared so well, nor had the others aboard her. But his thought still was for Kathleen. She had been beside him— Debris was everywhere, coating the river in a tangled jumble, making it hard to pick out individual objects.

BY GRACE WATSON It was mealtime with a melody, when a group of Girl Scout leaders gathered in the back yard of the Bethlehem Center for an "outdoor cookout." A radiant half moon and brilliant stars lighted the night, while a tepee-type fire warmed the chilly winds. Songs, laughter, chatter, and good fellowship aided in the digestion of huge servings of Camper's Stew — not that stew would not have been digestible otherwise Camper's Stew is one of the first dishes a girl scout learns to prepare in the out-ofdoors. It is simple to make, tasty, requires no cooking experience and best of all it is prepared in one pot in a matter of minutes. This type dish when served with a beverage, salad and break makes a nourishing meal whether it's served indoors or fifty miles out in the woods around a camp fire. But let's start with the market list and see what goes into Campers Stew. Ground beef heads the list and the scouts say that how much you buy will depend on the number of campers there are and just how meatty you like your stews. But to pin it down for a concrete recipe, two pounds of ground beef will be sufficient for twelve people. The second main ingredient is vegetable soup—yes, just cans of plain vegetable soup—nine cans for twelve people. The second main ingredient assembled, begin the an isai f twelve people. Then the market list is completed with one large onion, one large green pepper and bacon drippings or a slice of fat meat. With all the ingredient's assembled begin the stew by making little meat balls about the size of marbles. While the marbles are being made, two other campers are having loads of fun chopping and frying the onion and pepper in a pot over the campfire. Note: If you're preparing this alone in your kitchen, I'm afraid youre missing all the fun, but don't be discouraged, you'll get your reward when your family smiles their approval and you see how it helps cut the food budget. Now that the onions and peppers are done, add those tiny marbles like meatballs (after making th clling the stew Marble stew.) W tiny meatballs we campers started the meatballs are brown, pour in the cans of soup—no, ho water please! We're making stew, not soup. Let the stew come to a rapid boil, then call the hungry campers, if the aroma hasn't already drawn them around the pot. Along with the camper's stew you may serve crisp wedges of lettuce, hot cocoa, crackers and baked apples. The Dairy Council has a little book, "Hungry Times-Out-Doors" that is full of camping and picnicking recipes and ideas. Many of the foods and little tricks suggested in the book can be used indoors, too; if you prefer your kitchen stove to the campfire. To get a copy of this book, write to the Memphis Dairy Cuncil, 135 N. Pauline, or phone 8-7303. Why not treat yourself like a guest? Ancient Age is so fine as often served to flatter friends.
