Young Nazi Soldier Spanked By Briton The newspaper Limburgsch Dag- bUd reported recently fliat « lone German soldier who attacked a British tank armed only with a ri- fle was spanked by one of the tank crew when the Briton discovered the German was a 16-year-old boy. Then tlic tank crew led the prison- er to headquarters and ordered hira to stand in a corner. This was too much for the young Nazi who de- manded he be executed. Instead, he went to a prison camp.

The Jade God By .MARY IMLAY TAYLOR ISSUE 4â€" lOM CHAPTER VI The lawyer nodded curtly, but he turned in his chair and followed the young man with his eyes. For the first time a doubt had stirred in him. Plenty of innocent people suffered â€" but, psliaw! This boy had been fairly tried. It was a plain murder for money. lie was liard up at the time, and he was his un- cle's heir. Fosdick pursed liis lips. He had not tried to claim the for- tune yet; it was rolling up; Init he would â€" of course he would! lie nodded to hiiiisclt and went back to his work. He had always believ- ed Mark guilty. Mark had set his face westward. It seemed the natural destiny of men such as he. » » * He went steadily about it; he had long ago half shaped bis prob- able course. Now he looked up localities, recalled the advice that his friend, the warden, had given him, and even went so far as to inquire the price of railway, fares. Yet he did not go. Days had pass- ed and he had held to his resolu- tion. He had never returned to the Burleson house. Better that Pam should think him uncouth, uncivil- ized, than that he slii>uld trans- gress again. The thought of his reckless entrance there, his viola- tion of all the amenities of social life, made his checks burn. He lov- ed the girl; it was no romance of a day; and because it was real, be- cause it was a thing above and apart from the rest of his life, he would see her no more. The suffer- ing and annoyance might be hers, but she would soon forget! To go away from the city where she dwelt would be exile. There was always a chance here o! a glimpse of her, himself unseen. Once he saw Pam on liorseback in the park. Screened by the trees he watched her in the sunshine and thought her the most hoautifnl thing in the worldl That day he nearly l)rokc his resolution. It seetncd as if he must speak to lier. That niglil he sunmioncd himself to the bar of his own judgment and condemned him- self. No honest man would have gone into another's house muler a false name and made love to an innocent girl. He would go West in the nioriiiiip. ♦ * ♦ He was on his way to buy bis ticket when he came suddenly upon her. It was fate, he thouKhl, that she chanced to be out at the time. She was not angry, only surprised. She blushed furiously. "Where have you been? We've wondered I" She held out her hand, smiling, her soft eyes kind. "You've treated us shabbily," she chidcd him lightly. Mark did not go to buy his ticket. He walked at her side. The city street became an enchanted path. .Ml his resolutions melted; his heart sang in his breast. He had seen joy flash into her face when she saw hint. They walked a long way to- gether; what u.Ts said did not mat- ter â€" their eyes spoke. Then they came to a corner where there was a clock and she looked up at it, caught by the admonishing hands. "fiood gr.Tiiou.s; it's quarter to two;" she gasped. "What am I thinking of? I was to meet .\iint l.ynn at one, sharp, for lunch! It's down at Monstrrsi'", she â€" " Pam l.uighed nervously â€" "she must be raving! I'll have to get there â€" " ".\'o, you v.'on"t," said Mark, firm- ly, "you're going to lunch with me. I've always known it, only we've delayed, but you can't break that engagement with me!" * * * Her face was glowing above her fur.=, she shook her head, but her eyes laughed. "I can't!" she pro- tested, "not today." "Yes, today!" lie was determin- ed. He was piloting her tlirough a crowd and she could not escape easily. "There arc never any to- morrows â€" it's today with me. What's this place? I'm a stranger, I don't know, hut it looks good to me." "Oh, but I nuist go; I must meet Aunt Lynn â€" " the girl protested, the she laughed, for he had her inside the doors and was selecting a table. .She laughed again easily â€" she was happy. .She had been wonder- ing for days why he had deserted; now she saw it did not matter; he had been running away from him- self! He leaned toward her and she saw the flame that leaped into his eyes. "I was going away today when 1 met you; going as far away as 1 could." She was startled. "Were you?" Then she looked down at the table, trifling with her glass of water. "You're not going to stay in New York, then?" "God knows!" * * * SIi'- lifted her eyes and met his. A soft flush crept up to her hair. She looked adorable, and he groan- â-  ed under his breath. "I can imagine that a man like you wouldn't care to stay here lonp. ' she said unexiiectedly. "What kind of a man do you think me?" he demanded, "too un- civilized for urban life?" She smiled, her eyes shining. "I wouldn't have said that; but per- liaps 1 meant it! You know you're perfectly extraordinary â€" If you weren't, I should be down at Mon- stresi's now with Aunt l.ynn. "Would you rather?" he chal- lenged her. She .shook her head. "I wonder if you'd speak to nic if I toh; you the truth?" he said. "I wonder if any woman on earth knows the man she's talking with?" She looked at him across the tea- thinus, suddenly grave. "I know you've been tremen- dously unhappy." "Ciood heavens; am 1 as cheap as that? Appealing to your sympa- thy â€" your pity?' he c.Nclaimed. "You know I didn't mean that!" He was enraged at himself. Had he been playing on this young girl's sympathy? 'Pity's akin to love!' he thought furiously, and reddened to liis hair.

I wanted to tell you about my com- ing to your uncle's house; it was â€" " he broke off for she interrupted him softly. "Oh, Mr. Fosdick!" she said, looking around at the old man be- side her chair. Mark was taken aback. The law- yer had risen from a table in the farthest corner. It was evident that he had been watching them. "I come here for tea; it's the only place where I can get the kind I like," Mark heard him explaining to Pam, as if he knew his presence in a tearoom was amazing. As he spoke he looked at Mark â€" looked through him and did not see him. Pam thought they were not ac- quainted, and Mark heard her pre- enting him as "Mr. Byram." Fosdick stared hard at him, see- ing him now. "Byram?" he repeat- ed dryly â€" bitinglj'. (To Be Continued) TABLE_TALKS Vegetable Cooking Methods Important Vegetables can and do suffer more than any other group of foods in the hands of the cook. Nature packs them with health- giving vitamins and minerals, adds gay, bright colour for good meas- ure. We come along, boil out most of the minerals, kill the vitamins, destroy the lovely fresh colour and present the depressing looking re- sult to our families with the words â€" "E:it them up. Vegetables are good for you!" It doesn't make sense does it? And if some families are 'difficult' about vegetables, we wouldn't blame them. Overlooking and 'Drowning' VVlieii vegetables are limp, flavourless and a poor colour after cooking, it is safe to say they have lost a large part of their food value. Ovcrcookini^ and 'drowning' are the two most friKiiiently com- mitted sins against vegetables. Cooking until ju.At tender, by whatever method, and the use of only enough boilinu; salted water to prevent scorching, preserves food vahie, colovn- and flavour. It any liquid is left, remember it is a vertitable mineral mine. Never discard it. .Serve it with the vegetables, add it to gravy, soup, sauce or tomato juice. Casserole Cooking Have you tried casserole cock- ing for vegetables? It's good on all counts, food value, appearance and flavour. The vegetables are pre- pared and sliced, cubed or shredded. Boiling water to a depth of 14 inch is placed in the casse- role, the vegetables and salt added, t' e casseiole closely covered and baked until just tender. The vegetables will accommodate them- selves to the temperature required to cook the rest of the dinner and may be cooked from 300 to 400 F. Combinations of vegetables may be cooked together. Turnips and carrots; potatoes, onions and carrots; carrots and celery are all good. Panning First" cousin to casserole cooking is 'Panning' which is tspetially good for spinach, gale, cabbage, sun.mer squash and thinly sliced, ' tender beans. Prepared vegetables are measured. To each quart of vegetables allow two tablespoons of fatâ€" bacon fat drippings or but- ter. Melt the fat in a heavy flat pan, add the vegetables and salt, cover closely to hold in the steam and cook on top of the stove until just tender, stirring occasionally. Season with salt and pepper.

Partner wanted chop and there was other business to at- tend to, so I went along too. There had been quite a bit of snow overnight but the lane looked much the same as usual. So away we went with the team, sleighs heavily loaded with grain to be chopped, and Partner, John and I perched atop the load. I said to Partner â€" "Do you know, I haven't seen a team cr car on the road to- day!" We were soon to know the reason. The cut between the snow- banks on the road was practically filled in with fresh, loose snow, reducing the roadway to a mere trail. The whiffle-trees, in many places, touched the hard-crusted snowbanks on either side. But the horses plunged along quite happily. It wasn't too cold and I was really enjoying it until Partner, in answer to an inquiry said â€" "Yes, we'll be all right so long as wc don't meet the snowploughl" Well, just as we got near the Base Line I said to Partner â€" "Look what's coming!" Sure enough it was the snow- plough. Partner was too busy with the horses to say anything. For- tunately the driver on the big ma- chine knew enough to stop until we had turned the corner and pass- ed him. The horses were side-step- ping and cutting up like a pair of colts. But I knew Partner could handle them so I just hung on to the back of his coat and hoped for the best. There is so little to hang onto atop a load of chop! Wc were in town a little over two hours. Two hours â€" iet me em- phasize that. Hardly had we start- ed home when we met friend B â€" with his team and sleigli â€" but the only load that he had on was his wife. He laughed when he saw us and cnlled out â€" "You'll never get home with that load." Then we passed neighbour C â€" , and he call- ed out â€" "You won't get home!" and added something about the plough. We thought by that the plough had been up the line and was on its way down and that we would iiave to wait until it had turned the corner. * * * But it wasn't that at all. The plough iiad never made the grade â€" it had stuck very soon after it had started up the line. .'Vnd there it had been all the time we were in town. We could see it ahead of us.

We watched, and sure enough the great machine was beginning to cre^- We were saved â€" we knew now that we could get home because there was nothingr big enough to stop the plough from where it was to our own gate. We followed slowly behind her and saw where our neighbours had had to take to the ditch â€" and I cai» tell you we were mighty glad that we and our load didn't have to do likewise. .\ little way past our gate the plough stalled again.
