One station commander said approximately 50 men were working on the ground for every bomb that got into the air. It took 4,000 men about five hours to load the bombs. Some 7,000 flying personnel were briefed for the raid. The planes used well over 1,-000,000 gallons of gasoline, many thousand gallons of oil and a great volume,, of fluid for their hydraulic undercarriages, deicing systems and various pumps. Among the advance chores were the preparation of 7,000 flying suits and the loading of 750,000 rounds ©f machine-gun TEST "UNDER FIRE THREE" One Ail-Purpose Outfit For Princess Princess Elizabeth, who receives no more clothing coupons than any other Englishwoman, is making one all-purpose outfit serve all winter.

CHAPTER XX But then she realized that this oncoming horse was neither Black Dawn nor Hooker's, and with a little gasp of relief she sank back against the bunk. A moment later Curran straightened himself. He had seen the horseman rounding the curve of the trail and recognized him. The rider pulled in a little distance away and hailed, glancing suspiciously about him. "It's all right, Mr. Ferris," called Curran. "I got her here and nobody, else." Ferris rode up to the entrance and dismounted. "I got your message," he said, "but I didn't know if I could find my way here. At first I told Pedro he'd have to bring me, and after he'd gone I thought I se« if I could find the "So yuh didn't meet Pedro? I sent him hack for yuh," said Curran. He had planned Ferris' advent for a little later, and the disturbance of his plans momentarily disconcerted him. "Come in. I got her, like I told yuh, and Pedro gave Sheriff Coggswell an idea of where that murderers hanging' Lois ran forward. "Mr. Ferris help me," she pleaded. "Take me away. This man kidnaped me this morning. He--he.." Curran scowled. "I'll put her in the next room, an then we kin talk business, Ferris," he said, picking up the gag and rope from the table, where be had deposited them. Lois, utterly worn out, and realizing that Ferris, who was standing with averted head, had no intention of aiding her, was incapable of any resistance worth mentioning. In a couple of minutes Curran had her gagged again and carried her to the smaller room. After binding her securely, he went back to where the ranchman was standing. "I-don't like this business, Curran," mumbled Ferris. "That girl will overhear everything." "Well, that couldn't he helped," answered the foreman. "Maybe Sheriff Coggswell won't find that cowpoke, and anyways, by the time I git through with her, she'll be all ready to hitch up with tuc and little "housekeeper "vo'Ve^goin' 'to hfive, Ferris." * v,- .>*"-.--;. "Yean, Lonergau'll he here. I baited the trap by tellin' him I got the girl and she was ready to make how you was comin' here to hear them." - "Curran. we can't--can't kill Lonergan with her in the next room!"

"I'm not' imaginin' you're comin' in with me out of friendly toi y|ur advantage, and I'm willin' third of the ranch. I wrote it out and brought it along. You can read it." Me drew a document from his pocket and unfolded it. "Fine," said Curran, laying it on the table. "I'll read it later." "Of course we'll have to wait till we get ,back before signin' it," said Ferris. "We got to have wit- "Well, we got two. ain't we?" roared the forem*»i. 'That girl and Lonergan." "Lonergan?" cried the ranchman. ■Sure, that's what I said. We'll make him sign before we bump him off." "Don't talk so loud!" whispered "Here, take another drink and keep yore nerves steady," replied Curran contemptuously. "We're all in this up to the neck. When Lonergan comes, I'm goin' to string him along a little bit. He thinks yo're goin' to be the innocent victim. Ho, ho!" "Ho, ho!" echoed Ferris. But there was a note of uncertainty in his voice, that of a bewildered man, striving to steer himself through currents that are bearing him away. "Listen!" Curran whispered. The hoofbeats of another horse could be heard coming along' the trail. Ferris was shaking. "Lonergan!" he mumbled. "Maybe Pedro come back. But he wouldn't have time to make the round trip," Curran whispered back, pressing his body against the wall and peering out through the en- "Nope," he said a moment later, "it's Lonergan; We got that feller in the trap, Ferris. Just follow my lead, and when we are through with him he won't be in no position to make trouble again " "But outside--outside, Curran," whispered I'erris, staring with dilated eyes at the approaching rider, while his body shook like an aspen. "Outside, where she won't hear when--when we--" Dave watched the horses grazing on the young grass that was already springing up with incredible swiftness, after the night of rain. He lay back, dreaming of Lois and of their future. Finally he stretched himself, rolled and lit a cigarette, and rose to his feet. Underneath him the water was still running down the ravine, but it had dried to a thin trickle in places. Suddenly Dave perceived something white gleaming underneath the sunshine. It looked like--it was a part of the skeleton of a man. Those ribs were human ribs, not bovine. And there was the skull, just visible under the earth piled about it. It was evident, from the whit-ness of the bones, that the skeleton had lain in the ravine for a considerable time. It looked as if it had been buried, unearthed by flood waters, buried under an accumulation of debris that they brought down, and washed up again. Instantly curious, Dave began .-.crumbling down the side of the 'ravine. There was a sturdy growth of pine saplings that afforded him hand-hold and, bracing his feet against the rock wall, he was able to" make the descent without any especial difficulty. Between the bank and the skeleton there were about two feet of muddy water. Dave removed his shoes and socks and began wading through it. lt was undoubtedly the skeleton of a man. One of the legs protruded stiffly out of the mud, and Dave saw that it had been broken near the thigh. It evidently had bee*) badly set, for the broken ends were not in alignment, and there was a considerable thickening of bone about the side of the fracture. "Some waddy kicked by a horse," Dave thought. "But how come he was ridin' the trail up there? And if his horse slipped, where's the The water was washing over the skull, alternately exposing and revealing it. Dave put his hands beneath it and lifted it clear. Then (Continued Next Week) South Sea Natives Use Plastic Wood Natives of the Solomon Islands have ben using a plastic wood for generations, reports an American sailor stationed near Tulagi Island, in the Solomons. "We found out about native plastics when several of us started to make a boat," said the sailor.

V Some Miss Pleasure Of Going To Church It would appear axiomatic that the right kind of Sunday includes church attendance, but unfortunately, some people, satisfied with a life not quite complete, allow themselves to miss this pleasure, says the New York Times. The trip to church should be made on foot, if feasible. The head is up, with the sense of welldoing, and the lungs are full of brisk, fresh air. The soul is at peace with the world and the demeanor is cheerful. The churchgoer who is in the appropriate frame of mind lets his thoughts dwell on others, wishes them as well off as he, and holds in his purse a generous contribution, which will doubly bless the giver and the receiver. It need not greatly matter whether the sermon is of good or indifferent qua- . lity; the main thing is, to be in church, and to depart uplifted. Sweaty palms, leaden feet, sil-nce broken by chattering explo-ions, a whining sound overhead as alls of fire streak past, the contorting feeling of the "good earth" hey are hugging as roaring deton-tions hurl mud sky-ward--these re - a few of the sensations experienced by troops undergoing Jattle Innoculation at the Infan-ry Training Centre at Camp ihilo, Man.

An officer's voice can be heard above the din; 'You wonder why we make you run! Come on! Come on! Don't stop! Keep that pack-down! Watch that rifle!" "Under Fire Three," mentally, presents the most difficult test. SADIE B CHAMBERS Meats and Dressings As I am going to give you a few recipes with stuffing, I think the best plan is to give a recipe for a foundation Bread-Crumb Stuffing and then a few variations Bread Crumt Stuffing Crumb enough bread about a day old to give 2 cups of soft bread crumbs. Mix in 1 teaspoon s\\t, 14 teaspoon pepper, 1 tablespoon finely minced parsle}', 1 or 2 tablespoons finely minced onion, 2 strips chopped cooked bacon. Rub in 3 tablespoons butter or dripping. Add 1 beaten egg and a little vegetable stock or milk to moisten. Stuffing Variations Celery -- Drain and add 1 cup chopped cooked celery. Giblet -- Chop cooked poultry, heart, gizzard, meat of neck and add to foundation mixture; if liquid is necessary use stock in which giblets were cooked. Mushroom -- Chop and saute in fine-flavored fat until tender, 1 cup mushrooms; add to. foundation mixture. Corn -- Mix in 1 can whole kernel corn (chopped) or equivalent freshly cooked corn and (if available) % cup chopped nuts. Sausage--Add sliced pre-cooked sausages or pan-fried crumbled sausage meat. Stuffed Veal Stuff a leg of veal with dressing. Place on rack in roasting pan and dot with fat. Bake in a rather slow oven (325 F), allowing 40 minutes per pound for a roast weighing 3 to 5 pounds. Baste often with fat in the pan. Meat Rolls Have round, flank or hind shank or neck of beef sliced very thin, or use breast or chin slices of lamb or veal. Cut slices into pieces about, 4 by 6 inches. Spread each piece with well-seasoned stuffing, roll up like jelly-roll and skewer or tie. Brown on all sides in a little dripping.
