Add one cupful of whole milk to the frying pan and stir until all the gravy is taken up. Add this to the chicken with enough extra whole milk to half cover it. Cover the dish tightly and bake in moderate oven until the chicken is tender, which should be about two hours, when the milk will all be absorbed. Remove chicken to hot platter. Add one tablespoon flour to fat .and juices remaining in pan, stir over low heat, then add a cupful of milk. Cook until smooth and thickened, and pour over chicken. This is delicious served with fluffy-cook- ed rice and squash fur a vege- table. Lamb Loaf 1 '?

Sea-Air Power Of United States A report from Washington dis- closes the United States, "in the midst of war, has built the great- est sea-air power on Earth." The surface ships of the American na- tion now number 14,072, totalling almost 6,000,000 tons, and naval aircraft exceed 18,000. What has been achieved is con- veyed in the statement that "in July, 1940, the Navy received five newly-completed vessels; in June 1943, almost 1,200; In July, 1940, the Navy received 25 new air- planes; In June, 1943, almost 1,200." Between these dates the U.S. Navy built 2,200,000 tons of hips and added to Its fleet air arm 23.000 aircraft. Many of the latter have Bluett been written off as obsolete.

MM nv T >D BUY MORE VICTORY BONDS By VICTOR ROSSEAU DAWN CHAPTER I It was about midday when Dave Bruce reined iii his bay gelding and looked down into the valley below. For miles it seem- ed to extend, gradually rising up to the continuation of the moun- tain chain that walled it off from the badlands and the desert. Immediately beneat* him Dave saw one of the most prosperous- lojking ranches that he had ever eet eyes upon. There was the ranchhouse, the cluster of trim buildings on either side of it, the long bunkhouse, the corrals with straight fence-posts and taut wire gleaming in the noon sunlight. Sitting his horse upon the top of the rise, Dave could set a clus- ter of punchers gathered about the reiauda corral, which must ii. \T been at least three acres in extent. Inside it several horses were milling, rearing, or dashing wildly around the interior. Every- thing stood out hard and clear Ir the crystal light. "Well, fella, this looks like business," Dave remarked to his gelding-, which flicked an ear and went on grazing on the tufts of green grass. "They told us how Wilbur Ferris had the mair spread in Mescal, but I never looked for anything like this. How'll it feel eyed, Dave watched the swarthy punchers, sizing up the group as his left-hand fingers rolled a cigarette. "Howdy!" he addressed the crowd. "I'm lookin' for Mr. Ferris." Nobody answered him but the scowls deepened. Wilbur Ferris' Cross-Bar certainly didn't seem a hospitable outfit. But a man came striding out of a nearby bunkhouse, a tall and stocky man of about thirty-five, with a mass of matted hair and black mustache. Bunches of mus- cles on the chest and arms. Dark, but unmistakably an American. The Mexicans were looking at him significantly, then glancing at Dave. "Well?" demanded the new- comer. "You're foreman of this out- fit?" asked Dave. "If that's so, you want another hand." "Yeah! What makes you think 10?" inquired the other in a sneering voice. "Look at the outfit you got." The two measured each other. Dave had lit his cigarette and was puffing it easily. The Mexi- cans were watching the pair at- And then all bell was loosened. to be roundin' up steers again after our three months' holiday, fella?" > The bay raised his head as Dave tautened the reins, and be- gan picking his way down the precipitous descent that led into the valley. Three or four miles away Dave could see the roofa and house fronts of Mescal, hud- dled beside what looked like neck of the valley. It was three months since Dave's outfit, with which he had been for two years, had been pushed to the wall by the depres- sion prices. Dave had now reach- ed the point where it had be- come essential to settle down to work. The trail down which he was riding was certainly not in habit- ual use. At times it grew so steep that the bay put his fore- feet together and slid down in a shower of shale. Near the bot- tom came a fringe of aspen, with a layer of soft dead leaves, soggy with seepings from one of the in-> numerable streams that tumbled down into the valley on this side of the heights. * Then Dave was through the aspens and in the valley itself, and the bay was moving at an easy lope toward the horse cor- ral. Se\en or eight men were gath- ered about it, but none of them was sitting on the rails, and Dave saw why. The bunch of horses inside was unbroken, and every now and again one of them would make a furious lunge against the posts, or start on a wild career around the interior, ears laid back and teeth gleaming viciously. As he rode up, Dave saw that the outfit consisted of Mexicans or breeds. Sullen and suspicious looks were directed toward him as he eased the bay to a stand- still and sat surveying the group. Twenty-five, tall, straight in his saddle, fair-haired and grey- tentively. There was a growing tension. "Look* like you've rode far," taid the foreman, eyeing Dave's hor.-c, which was plastered with sweat and alkali dust. "Yeah, rode down from Utah." "That's a long ways from here." "I was two years with the Bid- die Brothers, till their outfit crashed. Thought I'd see a bit of the country before settlin' down again. A feller in some to\vn along the road told me there might be a place on Mr. Ferris' ranch at Mescal. My name's Dave Bruce." "I'm Curran. I got about all the hands I need. Might use a good one, but I've got to be shown." The sneer in the fore- man's voice had given way to a sort Qf purring note that Dave distrusted. "Fact is," Curran went on, "punchin* in these parts is different from up in Utah. I had one anmchoor after another, and I got to be shown." "I'm willin' to show you," an- swered Dave, drawing in a last puff and throwing away the butt of his cigarette. "You are, huh': How about hawss-wranglin".' Think you could break one of them broncs in there?" Curran jerked his thumb toward the corral. "I'm willin' to try." "Fine!" grinned Curran. "Noth- ln' better. You break that wild- eyed black in there, and I'll see about the job. lieaciy to start in now?" "I'm ready," answered Dave, clambering out of his saddle.

QUAKER OATS Tbe Quaker Oau) Company of Canada Limited Nazis Planned Invasion In 1940 Barges Ready To Carry Hun Hordes To England The gigantic air attack that Germany hurled at London three years ago last month definitely was the preliminary step toward Invasion of Britain. Twenty-five hundred b a r g e i massed In ports across the Eng- lish Channel and the North Sea were to have carried Hitler's In- vasion hordes to the shores of England as the climax of a five- week program culminating in mld- Eepteinber. The planned preliminary steps were to have been the knocking out of the R.A.F. and then the bombing of London to shatter the will and ability of the British people to resist. This Information, obtained from sources which may not be speci- fied, presented a broader picture of events that occurred (luring those dark days than It was pos- sible to give then or since. Radio Location System Effective The daring and tireless pilots of the R.A.F. carried the major burden of throwing this enemy In- vasion program awry The men who long ago were immortalized by the words of Winston Churc- hill: "Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few." The R.A.F. then was out-num- bered four to one by the German air force's 3,450 planes. The force that battled back 400 German planes on September 15, 1940, and 850 on September 27 amounted to only 29 squadrons less than 350 planes some of which fought three times In a day. Besides courage, the R.A.F.'s big assets were a radio location system, an efficient operational system, and the Germans' se- quence of mistakes. The Germans counted on dive- bombing, but evasive tactics, which saved the Stukas in Spain failed to work in Britain. Without armor, the Nazi bombers were forced into high altitude pattern bombing by daylight a system In which they didn't believe. Frenchmen Flee To The Mountains Interior Minister Andre Philip of the French Committee of Na- tiona 1 Liberation said recently that on the basis o: reports from the "underground" there are more than 200,000 Frenchmen living in "illegality" in the Alps or Pyrenees after fleeing to avoid deportation to forcuu labor in Germany. Forty thousam Frenchmen have been executed by the Ger- mans up to March, 1943, he said.
