THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT., OCTOBER 7th, 1937 Hi Tea for every Taste SALADA TEA HOSTAGE HEIRESS By DAVID DRESSER Janet Dua: snaire's daugh-party one night aboard palatial yacht, anchored her fath, off Mian into being lef behind wih him when the guests are taken ashore. The only other persons aboard are a crippled wtachman and Janet's Negro maid. Meanwhile, "Dusty" Lanion, lawless adventurer, has laid plans to seize the yacht to carry arms and ammunition to Cuban revolutionists-Believing the boat to be deserted, except for the^ watchman, who has bee bribed, Dusty and his mi to board her. CHAPTER V "So! You have done it?" Sakara Pitzinoff seized Dusty's hand. "You are magnificent," she told him, her dark eyes glistening. "I did not believe ... I could not believe the boat would be here. I keep telling Don Martinez, all the long trip in that so horrible truck, that it could not be." She stood very close to Dusty and smiled up into his face. Sakara made no secret of her admiration for Dusty, and Janet, watching from the deck of the yacht, could see it in every movement. Dusty wits strong and ruthless--the two qualities which Sakara admired most in a man. She, in her own way, was a'so strong and ruthless. She had fled from Russia during the Revolution, claiming 4he had been marked for death because of her noble ancestry. Perhaps it was true- Certainly she had not sought to evade death after escaping from Russia, tkr beauty and her daring "did not make for a placid life. She scorned security. Dusty had been here only twice before. She was known to him as an important cog in the Cuban revolutionary machine. For years, he had heard of the exploits of Sakara Pitzinoff--of her reckless deeds and her reckless hrves. r At^last,. meeting hpr TUTMiami while planning this coup, she had fascinated him strangely. Sakara was unlike any woman he had ever known. Here, he had recognized, was a spirit to match his own. But he was troubled now as he smiled down into her eyes. He hadn't expected Don Martinez to bring Sa- Strictly On Schedule "Why did you come?" he asked. "We'll be all through on this side as soon as we get the cargo loaded." "That is why I came," she said simply. They started to move toward the truck, where Don Martinez, Cuban rebel leader, awaited them. A dozen or more negroes had climbed down from the truck and were starting to carry the cargo to the yacht through the shallow water. Sakara caught Dusty's hand as she walked beside him, drawing it op to encircle her waist. She smiled up at him. "What do you mean--that is why you came?" he asked awkwardly. He was conscious that they could be seen plainly from the deck of the Fleetwing, and he gently sought to withdraw his arm, but Sakara would not 1 "Because we are through here," she said. "There is no more work for me to do here. I sail with you tonight." She glanced up at hirn obliquely, seeming to say, "I will sail with you always." Dusty disregarded her glance. COULD HARDLY CLOSE HANDS Had Rheumatism and Neuritis "I suffered severely I from Rheumatism and I Neuritis," writes Mr. W.J. Tracy of Toronto. J "I could hardly walk upstairs or close my hands. After taking Fruiiatires four days the swelling left my hands and knees. I could climb stairs and ladder I advise any person suffering as I did to take Fruit-a-tives. They give quick relief."

' FRUIT-ATI VES tmSs Something had happened to him since last they had been together. Her ardent glance now vaguely irritated him. He withdrew his arm from about her waist as they near-ed Don Martinez. "So, my friend! You have won the Don Martinez took Dusty's hand. He was tall and slender. His face was gaunt, and dark eyes glowed beneath bushy brows. "Everything's on schedule," Dusty assured him. "It is colossal!' Don Martinez exclaimed. "Even you ... I feared you would fail in this so bold at- These Passengers "I had my little troubles," Dusty acknowledged. "Things didn't go just as I'd planned. You see . . ." He paused awkwardly. "I've got three passengers on board." "Eh?" Don Martinez looked startled. "It's rather awkward," Dusty said slowly. "You see . . . one of them happens to be Cyrus Duane's daughter." "Eh?" Don Martinez said again. Sakara said nothing. Her hand rested on Dusty's arm, and he felt her fingers tighten convulsively. "Janet Duane, her maid and a man," Dusty said briskly. "They all happened to be aboard last night when we cut the mooring ropes and towed the Fleetwing from the bay. They didn't know anything was happening until we started the engine." Don Martinez was noplussed. "What will we do?" "Carry on," Dusty told him promptly. "Exactly according to plan.. The man doesn't count. He's been sulking in his cabin all day. He'll cause no trouble. The girl is different." He paused reflectively. "She has courage- But I've explained the situation, and she realizes she can do nothing ^Bept go ; h mm W: Miter we fend theTLso ?" He shrugs [~~ ged his shoulder^;. "Quien sabe. s I had planned to ran the yacht to an anchorage I know off Honduras, dismantle her, and make her unrecognizable. But now--I think I shall return the girl and the yacht to her father when I am done." "Fool!" Sakara said angrily. "They will hang you!" "Perhaps," Dusty said casually. "Though I think it unlikely. I haven't any intention of sticking my head in a noose. I'll see the girl back safely, and then disappear." "It matters not," Don Martinez muttered, "after the cargo is landed "That's right," Dusty said. "We will worry about the rest of it after we get this stuff landed." "Shall we go abroad?" Sakara took Dusty's arm and urged him toward the shore. "Yes--I must see about stowing this cargo away safelv." Dusty turned back to Don Martinez. "Suppose you stay on shore and see they get everything." "Right," the other assented. Canadian Immigration May leach 27,000,000 This Year Say Immigration Officials at Border; The Movement is From Europe .Chiefly of Agricultural Families Although Canada is not actively encouraging migration of settlers to this country, immigration officers manage to keep busy. F. C. Blair, director of immigration at Ottawa predicts examinations of persons at border points this year will total 27,000,000. The increasing tide of tourists is responsible for raising the figure 2,000,000 from last year. In 1935, border examinations numbered 22,750,000, and in 1934, 21,000,000. Assisted Influx The question of assisted immigration has again attracted attention with the visit of Sir Richard Linton, founder of the Big Brother movement, who will cross Canada on his way to Australia where assisted immigration is again to be put in operation. Sir Richard is making arrangements for the movement of settlers to the Antipodes. It is expected Sir Richard will call on Ottawa officials and possibly some members of the government, but it is considered unlikely the conversations will extend to questions of government policy. Boys and Girls The Fairbridge Farms, Incorporated, an organization which is participating in the Australian movement, has a farm on Vancouver Island and Sir Richard may visit it before sailing southward. Boys and girls'are brought to the farm from Great Britain, are educated and trained until they are 16 and then are placed on farms or in domes- tic service. There are about 150 girls and boys at the Duncan, B.C., farm and 50 more are on the way from England. The organization is supported by the British Government and British philanthropists. For several years the Canadian government joined with the United Kingdom government in assisting juvenile migration schemes and more than 18,-000 British boys and girls were settled in this country between 1923 and 1931. No Schemes During Depression Only 12,000 people a year are now coming to Canada to make their permanent homes here. Unemployment resulting from adverse economic conditions and western crop failures have discouraged the government from taking any action to stimulate the movement of settlers from the United Kingdom or other parts of the world. Since the beginning of the depression no schemes for assisting immigrants at government expense have been in operation. No barriers have been erected, however, against British settlers who are able to pay their own steamship fare to Canada and are able to take care of themselves. From Europe the movement has been confined to agricultural families who have money enough to establish themselves and to a few relatives of men already established here. Every year a considerable number, mostly of British stock, cross the border from the United States to settle in Canada. _ "Wait," Dusty said thickly. "I'll carry you." She waited silently. Dusty stepped forward and picked her up lightly. Her arm encircled his neck, and she smiled faintly. He waded into the water doggedly, trying not to breathe in the subtle fragrance of her hair, sternly striving to pay no. heed to the softness of her i relaxed in his arms.. To be continued. Berlin school children have started on their second kitchen-to-kitchen bone collecting campaign. This is to help Germany to be independent and give her glue and fertilizer base. Woman's orld Issue No. 41--37 Beauty vs. Beauty Sakara was silent as she and Dusty turned away. He was conscious of a feeling of antagonism toward her. Why the devil, he wondered, had she come tonight? The fine edge seemed to have been taken from the adventure. He thrust away from his mind the thought of Janet and Sakara on board the Fleetwing together. "Is she very beautiful . . . this Janet Duane?" Sakara murmured, as tl.ey neared the water's edge. "No," Dusty growled. "She's not pretty at all." The vision of Janet's lovely face obtruded- He felt mean and disloyal. "Not so beautiful as I?" Sakara stopped before him in the sand. Her arms encircled his nec'<. "Put her ashore when we sail," she whispered into his car. "What right has she to spoil the happiness we might know together? You and I . . . We will take this yacht and sail to the ends of .the earth . . . -togeth- She was trembling. The warn her seemed to flow into Dusty, ening him. Her lips found his gave way to her allure for i ment -- then abruptly thrus away. "No!" he said harshly. "Very well," Sakara said 'We shall see." She turned fc th of THE THANKSGIVING FEAST Thanksgiving and homecoming! They seem synonymous, don't they? Sons and daughters bringing their friends home from boarding schools and colleges for the holiday weekend, nature radiant in her autumn colors, and radiant faces around your family table! Make this a real day in the life of your family and serve a meal, the memory of which will last till next year. Here is a suggested menu that covers everything from cocktail to nuts. It can be the basis on which to plan your Thanksgiving dinner, with whatever changes and additions suit your own particular family. Grapefruit Juice Celery Olives Roast Turkey with Coconut Stuffing and Giblet Gravy Stuffed Potatoes Buttered White Onions Green String Beans Cranberry Mould Head Lettuce with Russian Dressing Pumpkin Pie Nuts Coffee Raisins There are a few points to remember when purchasing your turkey and here are some that may help. A 10-pound turkey will serve six tt> eight persons generously. Get one that is well padded with fat and make sure that the breast bone is pliable by moving the end of the bone farthest from the haad, from side to side. Another point to remember is that the legs of a young turkey are black and smooth, those of an old bird, greyish and'scaly. After you have washed, singed and drawn the turkey, stuff it and then truss and tie it. Place on back on a trivet in a roasting pan, and rub the entire outside surface with salt. Baste frequently during the roasting. If there is not enough fat in the pan for basting, use a mixture of Vi cup of butter melted in two-thirds cup boil-ater. After this is gone, use pan. Turn turkey frequently, that it may brown evenly. Turkey should be roasted at 350 Deg. F., for the whole period, allowing 20 minutes to the pound. Coconut Stuffing 2 bouillon cubes (chicken flavor) 1 cup soft bread crumbs 4 tablespoons celery, finely cut, (or Vi teaspoon celery salt) k tablespoons parsley, finely cut 1-8 teaspoon salt 1 cup milk, scalded Yi teaspoon sage 1 teaspoon scraped onion 1 egg, slightly beaten 2 tablespoons melted butter. Dissolve bouillon cubes in hot milk. Combine with •emaining ingredients, mixing lightly. Pack stuffing in loosely. It expands while cooking. This stuffing can also be used for duck, goose, pork, veal or chicken. For stuffed potatoes, use large flat ones. Bake in hot oven, (450 to 500 Deg. F.) 45 minutes, or until done. Remove from oven, cut lengthwise in halves, and scoop out insides. Mash, season with melted butter, salt, and pepper. Add hot milk and whip until fluffy. Pile mixture into potato shells and bake in hot oven (450 Deg. F.) 5 to 8 minutes or until browned. Stuffed potatoes are a wise choice for a large dinner, because they can be prepared ahead of time and simply heated in time for dinner. The Cranberry Mould will be a delightful change from ordinary cranberry sauce. It's new, delicious and lovely to look at. Cranberry Mould 1 package lemon flavored jelly powder % cup celery, finely cut 1 cup thick cranberry sauce, sweetened 1% cups warm water % cup canned crushed pineapple. Dissolve jelly in warm water. Chill. When slightly thickenas!, add celery, pineapple, and the cranberry sauce. Turn into mould. Chill until firm. The Russian dressing for the salad is made by combining: 1 tablespoon chili sauce Vi teaspoon vinegar 1 cup mayonnaise ',4 teaspoon paprika 1 tablespoon pimiento, chopped finely. Pumpkin Pie IY2 cups coconut, premium shred 2 cups cooked mashed pumpkin 1 cup sugar % teaspoon mace % teaspoon cinnamon % teaspoon allspice 3 tablespoons melted butter ' 3 eggs, slightly beaten 2 cups milk, scalded. Line a 9-inch pie plate with pastry, rolled to 1-8 inch thickness. Combine ingredients in order given and mix thoroughly. Pour into pie shell. Bake in hot oven (450 Deg. F.) 20 minutes, then decrease heat to moderate (350 Deg. F.) and bake 30 minut** longer. To Take Photos Of Sun's Corona Between Eclipses Airman Tels How Camera Car. Be Set for "Shots" at Sun From Stratosphere Flights into, the stratosphere by airplane and balloon may make additional observations of the sun's corona possible between the times of total eclipse. Speaking at Minneapolis before the concluding session of the American Astronomical Society's meeting at William College, Major A. W. Stevens of the Army Air Service stated that from the altitude reached on such flights the sun's corona may be photographed without waiting for an eclipse. The camera employed would be similar to one designed and used by Dr. Bernard Lyot of the Paris Observatory, with which successful photographs of the brightest details of the corona have been made from the Pic du Midi, in the Pyronees. Focusing of the Camera A lens focus sees the image of the sun on a dark circular screen, just its size, then another lens picks up the faint image of the corona around it and focuses it a second time. Great care is takea to keep all the optical surfaces scrupulously clean and to have all the lenses perfectly clear. With the gondola below the balloon, which cuts off the view directly overhead, the sun cannot be seen near noon. Therefore observations would have to be made in the morning, from 9 to 10 o'clock, or at a corresponding time in the afternoon, when the sun is not tco high. Only One a Year In such a flight a balloon of new design might ascend to 85,000 feet, Major Stevens said, but he did not know whether a new flight would be made. Not more than one could easily be made a year. Will Finance 45,000 Families The Dominion will provide direct relief for 45,000 families in Saskatchewan this winter together with feed and fodder for their livestock, Agriculture Minister Gardiner announced this week. Ravages of persistent drought have raised the number of relief families from 25,000 last year. Estimates for drought areas in other parts cf the West are still to be made. Ominous signs of scurvy have appeared in the West, the minister said, : the ! will launch a scheme to move large quantities of surplus fish, cheese, vegetables and fruit from other parts of Canada into the drought areas. In addition to providing direct relief in the areas of greatest suffering the Dominion will make direct grants-in-aid to the provinces to help municipalities on the border of the drought belt. Scheme devised by the Kwangtung (China) Provincial Government: „-- Every family will be given a chicken worth 20 cents. Under penalty of imprisonment they will have to feeij and house it until it is reclaimed bj the Government. The reclaiming wil be done when the chicken is wortl five times its original value.
