Some of these newcomers were possessed of the gambling fever and they tried their luck against The Michigan Kid's. Rumors spread of big games in the back rooms of the Kid's place, games where the sky was the limit. One man in particular scoffed at "Michigan's luck" and prophesied that he would "get" the Kid--send him out of the country broke. This was a Colonel Johnson, a great engineer and mining promoter who represented a London syndicate. He and Rowan met, finally, much as famous duellists meet, and behind Jocked doors they played for twenty hours. What the stakes were nobody knew, but they must have been enormous, and luck must have run the Kid's way as usual, for Colonel Johnson rose finally, stepped out into the hall, and killed himself. That at least was the story which was made public and which the auth- orities accepted. Certain spiteful minded persons whispered knowingly that this story was all a fabrication: that "Michigan's" luck had finally de- gerted him and that the shot had been fired inside, not outside, the room.

"THE FAMOUS ENERGY 7 A CANATA STARCH COMPANY Limited of his steamer stateroom behind him, he closed it, ag he thought, upon The Michigan Kid and everything that had to do with that notorious character. When the first bend of the river had hidden Dawson City from view he drew from his pocket a wallet, and from this he carefully extracted a blurry, time-yellowed picture of Rose Morris. It was a picture he had clip- ped from a Dover newspaper on the day Rose graduated from the local high school and it showed her as a girl in white with a floppy hat and a sash of ribbon about her waist. It was perhaps the one and only personal possession that he had never risked losing at some time or other. He gazed at it now for quite a while. He wondered if Rose were still alive. If so, she must have grown in- to a beautiful woman, yes, and a good woman--here the gambler was speak- ing. No doubt she was married. He pondered this thought deliberately and it awakened a feeling of regret too indefinite to be called a pang, for long ago he had realized that it was not the flesh-and-blood Rose Morris that he worshiped, but an idea and an ideal. Of course he proposed to find her--that was the one thing he had in mind--but what would happen when he had found her was another matter. When he boarded the steamship at St. Michael he saw no familiar faces, and, inasmuch ds his name meant nothing to his fellow passengers, he felt a great relief. Already he had bégun to realize, as he had not realiz- ed in Dawson, that whatever The Michigan Kid may have stood for on the upper river, back home that name would stand for something altogether different. Back home! The words possess a peculiar significance for men who have not been "outside" in more than five years. Nobody but the homeward bound Alaskan could in the least ap- preciate them. Oldtimers Meet At Nome the ship hove to for twen- ty-four hours, and Rowan went ashore to see what .the place looked like. Here again he passed unnoticed, and he was greatly cheered by that fact. If he could walk the streets of an Alaskan gold camp without being rec- ognized, it argued that he would have no difficulty whatever in the big world outside. His attention was attracted by a poster which advertised an informal rally of all the citizens of Nome who hailed from Michigan. The meeting was to be held that night for the pur- pose of general good-fellowship and acquaintanceship and with the ulti- mate view of organizing a Wolverine Society. Jim decided to go. It turned qut to be a pleasant gath- ering. A glad-hand committee was at the door to introduce strangers around; there was a program of en- tertainment, with refreshments prom- ised afterward. Jim Rowan grinned. Here was old home stuff. He wondered what these pleasant-faced men and women would think if they knew that he, the unob- trusive visitor, was The Michigan Kid, the most notorious "sporting man" in all the north.

ARE YOU K Time To Serve The Community Women of Today Have Leisure Hours They Can Put to Good Use Compared with the woman of the days of Solomon and with the woman of the days of George III, the woman of the days of Georve VI has hours of idle time upon her hands and would live a very empty life if her interests were confined to "kirk and kitchen and kids." . Time For Leisure Tasks The emancipation of woman from the old tasks that confronted her leads up to the question of the educa- tion of women for the interests-sf life outside the home. id She now has time to spare from the easier job of home-making to serve the community in which she 1iv¥s, The better to enable the women of the rising generation to play their part in the community, the girls of today should be afforded the benefit of a liberal education, that will bring them into touch with the history, phil- osophy and literature of the ages, broaden their outlook and make them useful citizens to the fullest degree. Mysteries of Outer World Without neglecting those duties of the home from which the machine cannot divorce them, they must ®arn the mysteries of that outer woiid to which they cannot help being driven through the mechanization of the household arts that hag driven them outside the walls of their home to find a fitting outlet for their energies. Blouses and Skirts In Varied Colors NEW YORK.--Assembling blouses and skirts has been simplified at one of the mid-town Fifth Avenue shops. Here they have beautifully tailored rayon blouses which match skirts in such colors as beige, rose, yellow, black, navy or green. They do the same sort of thing in flannel, in shirts and skirts, and in salina cloth, a rayon and cotton mixture, they car- ry out the same tailored combina- tions., These are ideal for casual town wear under reefers, and for the country--even for active sports, such as golf. > Man tailored shirts, dong in white, black, navy or pastefs. Separate pleated skirts give a cos- tume look to printed sheer blouses-- nice when the sleeves are short and puffed, or long and full with tight wrists. Color Song Red is a swift young deer Running in the snow, Yellow is faint laughter When the spring winds blow. Blue is a deep garden When the evenings wake. Silver is dim music Heard upon a lake. Green is water coolness On a summer day. Purple is the shadow Where tall poplars sway. Black is the echo ringing From a great bronze gong. White is the moment after « The singing of a song. --Sara Van Alstyne Allen in The Christian Science Monitor. Lansing delivered a speech eulogiz- ing the home state and referred to the Kid as 'that unsavory character of the upper Yukon who has brought odium upon the fair name of our birth- place." Again Jim grinned. One has to pay something for success. Nowhere did he hear a name or see a face that he knew, with perhaps one exception--the face of an old man who sat in a quiet corner. It was a bearded face and the man was poorly dressed. He wore rubber boots and overalls and a faded threadbare mack- inaw that hung loosely from his stoop- ing shoulders. His hair was thin and gray and he coughed a good deal. Jim studied the old fellow's profile and decided that he had probably seen the man across the gambling ta- ble or the bar--a river of derelicts like this one had flowed in and out of his place during these recent years. He had about put him out of his mind when the man rose to leave. Then Rowan started, leaned forward; his eyes fixed themselves upon the strang- er"s bearded cheek.
