THE ; OREGON tAXLY JOURNJUPORTllAJl OREGON, i 1 WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1 1, C 1S22. ICofvticbt.' 12. by th Christy Walsh ija- V. -I STORY 27- I"' . IN THE year ISM ma event occurred which was to have the greatest! in fluence upon the further development -of the history of America. Many thou - sand people in northern and western Europe were willing to cross the ocean and try their luck in the new world But this new world (the western coast at any rate) was owned by the king of Spain. And the king of. Spain As Defender -of the Faith, would tolerate no heretics within his domain. Cal- vlnists, Lutherans and Zwinglians, " therefore, were forced to stay at .home. But during the early "80s of the 16th century strange rumors began to be heard in the little ale-house that stood right of the English and -Dutch water front. John had heard it from Bill, who had heard it from Mike that a Dutch skipper had , told a cousin of his that he had seen a man who had just escaped from the Spanish, galleys that all the Spanish and - Portuguese shipyards were working overtime and that a tremenedous fleet was soon to sail northward to make an end to all further rebellion in the Low Coun tries and to avenge the wrongs which Catholic Mary Stuart had suffered at the hands of her Protestant enemies. This famous fleet, the Great Armada, actually left Spain in the year 1588 and made for the harbors of the Bel gian coast, where guns and powder and additional men were to be taken on board, together with experienced pilots But the Belgian harbors were block aded by the Dutch XJeet and f ast 5?'"

Do you Suppose I'd want him to just go 'groping around like he was telling x-oii? That would be crazy, of course. Little as his work at Lamb's brings ' in. I wouldn't' be so silly as to ask "him to give it up just on a chance he could, find, something else. Good gra cious, Alice, you must give me credit for a little intelligence once in a .. while !" - Alice was puszled. "But what else "could there-be except a chance? I don't see-" : 'Well. I" do." her mother .Interrupted, decisively: "That man could make us ail well off 'right How if he wanted to. We could have been rich long ago if he'd ever really felt as he ought to about hte family." -."Whath? Why, how could " t ' ""Tou know ,how as well as . I do," Mrs. Adams said, crossly. "I guess you haven't forgotten how he treated - me about it the Sunday before he got sick.'" j She wnt on with her .work; putting Into it, a j sudden violence inspired hy the recollection but Alice, enlightened, gave utterance to a laugh' of lugu brious derison. j "Oh, the glue factory again I" she cried. "How silly !" And - stoe renewed her laughter. So often do. the great projects of . parents . appear ignominious to their . children, Mrs. Adams's conception of a glue factory as a fairy godmother of this family was an absurd old story which -Alice had -never taken seriously. She remembered that when she was - about '15 her,, .mother began now and - then -to . say something to Adams about a "glue factory," i rather timid ly, and as a vague suggestion, but never iwithout Irritating him. Then. for years, the preposterous subject had , not been mentioned ; possibly because ( of - some explosion on the part , of Adams, when ; his daughter had not been present .But during the last year ' Mrs. Adams had quietly gone back to these old faints, reviving them at i1 intervals and also reviving her bas eband's irritation. Alice's -bored fanpres . slon was that her mother wanted him to found, or buy. or do something, op v other, about a glue factory; and that . he considered the proposal so imprac- Ucable as . to be iqsultlng. The par i rental conversations took place when neither Alice nor Walter was at hand, 1 but sometimes Alice- had come in upon the conclusion of- one . to find her , father in a shouting mood, and shock- Ccticm Dees So I.Inch Fcr Hair AlJ S!da , For promoting and maintain ins; beauty rf skin and... hsdr Cuticura Soep and Ointment are unexcelled.

With out pilot and at ? the mercy of the squally waters of the north, the clumsy aad heavy Spanish ships - were -no match for the small and handy vessels of !EngIander and Hollander. ; The great Armada was thrown into con fusion. Ships rammed each- other and sank. Others were beached. More were driven northward by a sudden Vstbron arid ..for weeks cruised aimlessly through the dangerous and choppy realm of the North sea. Those who ! tried to reach home by way of North ern Scotland and western Ireland were driven upon 'the rocks arid those who escaped drowning were killed by . the natives, who plundered the Spanish treasure Bhips and lived happily, upon the spoils for more years than, their descendants are willing to! confess. Of the great and glorious fleet of 130 ships only 54 returned. The- naval power of Spain had been broken. And with the loss of her naval su premacy Spain also was deprived of her exclusive claims to the continent of America. 4 After the year 1588 the continent was at the disposal of all "new-comers. Spain repeatedly tried to reassert her ancient rights. But the English and the Dutch and the French laughed at those high-sounding -pretensions and founded colonies to their hearts con tent. ' , (To be continued tomorrow.) ing the air behind him with profane monosyllables as ne aepartea. mrs Adams would be left quiet and troubled, and when Alice, sympathise ing with the goaded man, inquired of her mother why these tiresome' bick erings had been renewed, shealways got the brooding and cryptic answer, 'He could do It if he wanted to." Alice failed to comprehend the deslra-H DUity or a glue taciory to ner mina a father engaged in a glue factpry lacked impressi veness-f had no advan tage over a father jsmployed by Lamb; and Company ; ana she supposed that Adams knew better than her mother whether such an enterprise would be profitable or not. Emphatically, he thought it would not, for she had heard him shouting at the end of one of these painful Interviews, "You can keep up your dang talk till you die and I die but m never make one God's cent thatyway !" , There had been a culmination. Ee turning from church on the Sunday preceding the -collapse with which Adams's illness had begun, Alice found her -mother' downstairs, weeping and Intimidated, while her father's stamp- 'ing footsteps were loudly audible as he strode up and down his room overhead. So were his endless repeti tions of invective loudly audible : "That woman ! Oh; that woman ! Oh. that danged woman!" ? Mrs. Adams admitted to her daugh ter that It was 'the old glue -factory' and that her husband's wjldness had frightened her into, a "solemn prom ise" never to mention the subject again so ' long as she had breath. . Alice laughed. Tbe "glue factory" Idea was not only a bore, .but ridiculous, and her mother's evident1 seriousness about It one of those Inexplicable vagaries we sometimes discover ;in the people we know best. But this Sunday rampage appeared to be the end ot it, and when Adams came down td dinner, an hour later, he was unusually cheerful. Alice was glad-he had gone wild enough to settle the glue factory once and for all ; and she had ceased to think of the episode long before Friday of that week, when Adams was brought. home in the middle of the afternoon y his oiu employer, nie grcni f. .a- i m tm. in the latter's car.
