especially for young men who have
no particular responsibilities at
home. So fur as personal risk is
concerned, the young mini who
Joins the comiutny would probably

Veterans of the last war are
watching with Just a bit of nos
talgic Interest I h e marching
squads and the boys going shout
-town in olive drub uniforms. Thcsu
veterans very well remember Hail
In 11116 the Itoseburg company un
derwent almost Iho same Idcnllcul
experience that the young men of
Ihe company arc now going
through. In llilti the guurd was
mobilized and spent several,
months on the Mexican border. It
was a training period at Ihal time
also, but there uus a linge of reul
lsm about It that made it just a
bit more of an adventure than
this inobiltalion seem to be.
However. Ihe punitive expedition
Into .Mexico did uot result in much,
If any, net Ion.
These veterans are not so old
that they hao toigotlcn. The
memories of the bonier campaign
are still ilvid to lliein. They know
that the soldiers or Company D
who will go lo Camp Murray Mon
day will havo many enjoyable ex
periences tiud that they. loo. in
future years, will bo able In look
back on these days as having been
exciting. Interesting sail, wltball,
enjoyable.

' Hut, someone usks, what If war
comes - whal If this company of
soldiers, leaving ostensibly lor
training. Is actually headed for
fighting? The reasonable answer
to that query Is' ihal there seems
now to liu less likelihood, by lar.
of 'our being engaged In 11 war
than there was lu 1;H6. Hcyond
that, all lite Is an adventure. W hat
if the end of the world conies?
What If an accident occurs? Ac
tual and certain personal secur
ity docs nut exist. All of us must
of necessity live llle ns we liail
It, taking the risks ns they must
be taken ns chcciTuliy and as op
timistically as possible. I'm- that

here and now that in the curient

Is worried about him. An he walks
back to his room. Newt Gale
warns him to look out tor tho
land agent.
CCHAPTER V
The Taylors left Sioux SprliiKH
early. Carrio joined them alt
er a hearty breakfast at Ma Parm
ley s. The v.'Uw'oi. was piled high
with supplier, most for Carrie's
claim. She sat between Mrs. Tay
lor and big Kd. perched up In
front of Ihe load.
The wagon, grinding deep Into
dry prairie earth, rolled up a
choking cloud of dust. Ahead.
Carrie could see still other wag
ons, and behind them Sioux
Springs' single dusty street was
alive with rumbling, creaking
freighters and every conceivable
homesteader outfit.
Carrie would never forget that
, morning. Tin- sun heat down mer
cilessly, she thought, and she was
glad that Ma Pa i in ley had warned
her to wear her biggest bonnet.
Mrs. Taylor wore one. too. (tie
Kd Taylor, busy driving, didn't
say much except to note the pow
dery dryness of thn laud.
"Seems." Kd said, "as if tills is
about the dry est spell I've seen
in a lone time. Little rain would
sure help this here prairie grass.
Iwook at how brown U'h gettin'
now."
lt was brown. Carrio sat there.
bumping along, staring at the
seared grass us far as her eyes
could reach, and thought, with a
shudder, it was almost hot euoueh
to burn. She noticed, however,
grass was greener along the bot
tom lands when Kd Taylor
whipped his (nam of grays across
Itock ( reek an hour before noon
and pulled up at Carrie's claim.
Willi') Mrs. Taylor got out their
lunch. he unloaded supplier,
stacked them near the sodily site.
Then they sat down and ale as
Carrie never remembered eating
before.
The Taylors drove on to their
own claim, a mile distant, after
eating, promising Carrie to re
turn early lor her that afternoon.
"Might as veil come with us
now." big Kd said, "until we get
straightened around. Not much
you can do .here alone till we put
ii p t ha t noddy." Hu I 'a rrie re
fused, saying she might as well
tret used to being ou a homestead
alone, lhat she wanted lo get the
"feel" of her land.
Carrie waved goodby lo the
Taylors, standing there on her
stack of supplies, and was thank
ful that such people lived. She
watched them down the knoll and
out of sight beyond Ihe trees along
Itock Creek. Shi was turning
j back to survey the things Taylor
'had unloaded when she saw a lone
llgure driving across the- creek in
a buggy toward her claim.
Instantly she was exeil'd. She
did not have long to watt. Thi'
visitor was Ash ton Oaks.
Carrie
recognized him with
un,l,lii
fear, which she
!-oilld not wholly
disguise as lie drove up.
Oaks, affable. Immaculate lu
his cutaway and black bat. Jump
ed down from the buggy, greeted
Carrie el'lusively.
"Well, well." lie said, surveying
tho pile of homestead slocks.
"Looks like you're going to do II
up right. Building and every
thing." "That's cxuclly il." said Carrie.
"The Taylors hauled out the last
load today and Ibis afternoon or
tomorrow we begin on Ihe sodily.
I can't wait to get It finished and
move in."
".lust drove out from town."
Oaks went ou pleasantly, balling
leisurely against Ihe side of bis
buggy. "I'retty dusly. You bome
sleaders certainly can stir up the
dirt." He laughed and Carrie
Lane suddenly had Ihe feeling of
being eyed from bead to loot.
"Where there's dust, there's ac
tion." Carrie retorted. ' Why. you
won't know this country in six
months. Mr. Oaks." using the
identical words Oaks had used on
ihe ride out to Itock Creek two
