When the was sixteen months old iha was given to Clare, a sixteen-year-old blind girt. Tha two were great com paniont and Hilda's life was free from care or anxiety. But, Clare had an older brother, Al, who was a young man tax ing life very lightly. He was fond of Hilda, and one day, while Clare was visiting en eye -doctor with her father, Al took the dog for a walk. They stopped at a pool-hall where Al owed a gambling debt. Steve and Charlie, proprietors of the etteblishment, told Al they would hold Hilda for the debt. Al had twenty-four hours to get the money or elte Hilda would be sold. Unable to raise the money the young man returned during the evening and beggad for the dog. He unlocked the door of the room over the cellar where Hilda was chained, a scuffle followed end at that mc-nont Hilda found herself capable of strength she had never dreamed was hers. She broke the ancient chain and she and Al escaped. Chapter Eleven ABOUT two blocks from our house Al led me into a ga rage. I'll admit I did not care to make any more visits with that young man, but I went, feeling nothing more would happen to me, (I was sure Al had learned his lesson.) x The end of the chain was still fastened to my collar. Naturally Al couldn't take me home with that tell-tale evidencn. "Joe," he called to a man who was half way under a car, "can 1 use a pair of your pliers?" "Sure, Al. Help yourself." "Okay, Hilda, you just hold still and I'll soon have this thing off. You twisted or bent it or some thing when you broke loose. There you are . . all okay." He put the pliers back on a shelf. I felt better, I assure you, with that clanking chain off, I was completely myself and calm again by the time we reached our house. Clare was there in the lighted doorway, waiting. Her anxious face pained me, and I gave a short sharp greeting to let her know I was home again. Her arms were soon around me. Ws joined the rest of the family in the dining room and truly 1 could not help but feel sorry for Al. The look on his father's face was one Til never forget, "Well, Al what have you to say? Where have you had Hilda?" Before the boy could answer, Clare had, with her groping hands, found the place on my throat where the collar had torn my flesh a little. The hair there must have been matted and damp. Menu of the Week By Joan Andrews ONE of tha biggest problems of the woman who cooks three meals a day, seven days week, is to use the old, familiar foodstuffs in unusual and original ways. This interesting recipe for stuffed, baked artichokes is one solution to the problem. A supper or luncheon menu has been built around this stuffed artichoke recipe. Here It is: Stuffed baled artichoke. Shot string potato., Watermelon pickle Summer Sated Bowl Graham biscuit, Youngberry arr) Fresh raspberry mousse Clean 8 artichokes and cut off the stems and H inch from the tops, and cook In salted water.

"What's the matter with Hilda's throat? Why it is wet, and it feels like the skin is broken. What is it?" She was trembling and frightened. The whole family gathered around me, and Clare's mother sent the small brother to fetch a basin of warm water and a cloth. Poor Al stood back looking wor ried and humble. With all that boy's faults 1 simply couldn't help a fondness for him. Clare's mother and I both re assured her my wounds were not important at all and that 1 was still as good as new. Soon she , stopped her anxious questioning. Her father walked over to the sideboard and lit his pipe. I lay down at Clare's feet . , . one paw across her instep. It was good to be safe again. Clare's 1 title broth er was sent off to bed. Her moth er sat folding and unfolding a napkin. The room was very still. "Alright!" Al burst out. "111 tell you the truth." "Good boy, Al," I thought. "I knew you had it in you. Out with it . . . You're growing up." "I took Hilda for a walk. I went with her to a pool hall where I've been before. When I got there I met some . . . friends of mine." He stopped. "Please go on, Al." It was Clare. Her voice was low and gentle . . . forgiving, too, perhaps. At least her tone said she would under stand. "Well, I owed these men some money. Not much ... It was a debt. I couldn't pay it so they kepi Hilda." "Gracious, Al." His mother's voice was shocked. His father only stared at his pipe and looked wor ried and, suddenly, old. "I went out to try and get the money. I knew I couldn't get it. I just walked around. That's why I didn't come home to dinner. I didn't want to come home without her. Later I went back and told them she wasn't my dog and they'd have to let me take her. There was a fight Hilda broke the chain they had on her, and we got away," He looked miserable. Clare stroked my head and mur mured to me the way she does, After a long time the father said, "How did you happen to owe these men money, Al? What kind of debt was it?" "I ... 1 ... It was a gambling debt" The words must have near ly choked him. He dropped into a chair and sank his face in his hands. "How am you going to pay it, son?" It was the mother speaking now . . . low and patiently. "I don't know. Ma. I don't know." (Continued Next Week) Cool, and remove chokes, or. cen ters.

IT WAS not long after the sur render of Cornwallis that a peace treaty waa signed between England and America. John Ad ams was made minister to the court of SL James. There he rep resented the United Statos. Now America was truly free. Let us see what she did with this new freedom. Thero were plenty of reaions why she wanted freedom, and most of them were becauso of the things she did not want to do. Slio did not want the King to tell Iter what to do. She did not want to pay British taxes. She did not want British-appointed Bishops in America. She did not want Par liament to tax tea and several other articles.- There were many reasons why the people of the United States banded togethei to fight off the things they did not want to do. Now the cause was won and the real work of doing the thlncs that must be done was considered. All the many departments of gov ernment that had been handled by Great Britain must now be under taken by the new government of the United States, and since there had not been any government one must be formed. Then the question arose, Whut sort of government shall it be? Suggestions came from every state and citizen. The frontier peo ple wanted one form of govern ment, the coast people another. Another difficulty arose. The for- Young LOSTI By Jean Anderson, Age 12 San Bernardino SUSAN put her doll in her bug gy and started out. She was going into the woods for a picnic, all by herself. Of courso she had Elmirn, the doll, with her, and she was just as good as another per son. Susan had two jelly sand wiches that sho had gotten from the kitchen and these wore to be her lunch. Sho walked a long time nlong different paths in the woods. It was hard to tell what time It was, because the trees were so thick that you couldn't see tho sun very well. However, pretty soon Susan got hungry, so she ate the two sandwiches. Sho played under the trees with Elmira for a long time. Then sho thought she had better start home. Susan started back. She walked and walked, but she didn't scorn to be gotting anywhere. It started to get dark and she was very frightened. Finally the awful truth came to her. She was lost I It was gotting very dark and she got more and more scared. Just when she was ready to alt down and cry, she heard someone calling, "Susan, Susan." It waa her father! With a glad cry ihe ran towards him. Luckily he had found her, and she waa safe! Feathers, Fins and Fur CATS AND BIRDS' NESTS THAT title has an omlnoua sound, especially for the birds. This time, however, It is the cata who are in danger. Peggy, a pet cat belonging to Mi sb Hannah Harvey of Coyote, California, is deathly afraid of dogs. Because of this, she spends most of her time In the trees. Odd as it sounds, her kittens wero born, recently, in a willow tree whoso branches aro from 15 to 20 feet off the ground. There they lived for throe weeks. Thon the mother decided that the willow branches weren't thick enough to support the family, and she mov ed them to a nearby ovcrgrocn tree which is filled with old birds' nests. In this airy homo the pus sies aro now living contentedly nmong tlio nests. HOMING PIGEON IS FISHING BOAT VISITOR A HOMING pigeon rode Into port nt San Diego recently on a fishing boat, the San Pedro. Us captain, Joaquin Pedro, stnterl that the bird came on board while the crew wns fishing off Odros Inland, about forty miles south of San Diego. It stayed on deck for tha entire voyage and refused to leave until Ihe boat came along side, the customs office at port. Only then did it take flight. The bird was of a bluish color and bore a leg hand which was inscribed with tha figure, , U-S4-LA-1832. Mrs. William Bradley, secretary of the local pigeon club, said the LA apparently referred to Los Angeles, and expressed her decision to communicate with the Los Angelea club. CAT PROTECTS FROG PALS SUNNY Boy, a cat belonging to Mrs, R. C. Montgomery of San Jose, showed his loyalty to his frog friends recently when he protecterl them from an attack by a neighbor'a cat. eign countries wanted tho loans they'd advanced during the war returned or at least the interest paid. How was it to be gotten together? It truly looked as if this United States had better be just that . . . United States. A strong central government was what was needed. Hamilton, who had been Washing ton's aide, saw to it that a group of the state's representatives met in Philadelphia to thresh this thing out The war was long over, and at this time the United States had been without any central govern ment for neany twelve years. So ... at this famouB Philadelphia Convention the great issue was up for settlement. Fortunately while the future of our country was argued back and forth, two great men with level heads wcro pres ent. They were Benjamin Frank lin, aged of course, and General George Washington. The really important outcome of this con vention was the birth of the Con stitution . . . September, 1787. The constitution la indeed a document of interest ... a docu ment of compromise. Many argu ments and much loud protesting was listened to before the paper was finally signed and scaled. The fourth of March, 1789, the first Congress, under tho new government, met in New York. In three weeks General George Washington was elected president of tho United States. Authors R.RAVF PALI By Jack Martin, Age 13 Reno, Nevada BILL AND TOM wore swimming in the lake. It was a hot day, just right for a awim. Their, dog, Pal, waa with them, too. He was a big dog, part Collie and part sev eral other things. In other words, he was just plain dog. Their fam ily often made fun of Pal, telling the boys they should get a good dog. They had great fun, swimming and diving off a rock. Neither could swim very well, but they had a good time just the same. Suddenly Tom let out a yelL "Help, help, Bill. I've got cramps and It's deep here." - Bill tried to awim to help Tom, but he had a hard enough time keeping himself going. All at once the boys heard a sharp bark. It was Pal. He jumped from the bank and swam atraight to Tom. Catching the boy'a suit between his teeth, he started to tow him to shore, while Bill fol lowed. Finally they reached the andy beach. Tom sank down and put his arm around Pal. "Gee, Bill," he said. "Pal laved my life. I guesa the folks will never kid me about him again, . huh?" Phe frons. which are of the French red-legged variety, live In the Montgomery fishpond, and Sunnv Boy often plays with them, patting their aides with his pawl to see them swell up. However, a real friendship between these oddly assorted animals was shown when a neighbor'a cat tried to at tack the froga one evening. Sunny Boy came to the rescue and at the risk of t little lost fur, com pletely routed the marauder, FAGE imn
