Vicuna Possessor of Fine
Fleece Is Rarely Tamed
Although the vicuna of Peru
possesses the finest fleece known
this animal has never yet been
domesticated on a commercial
scale says Collier’s It is too
wary and fast-moving to be cap-
tured and spends most of its time
at 16000-foot altitudes in the Andes
where the air is too cold and rare-
fied for man-4 — -Of
the few thousand that have
been caught and tamed in infancy
one man owns a flock of 300 from
which he shears a total of only 100
pounds of wool a year or barely
enough for ten men’s overcoats
that have sold for as much as
$1000 apiece

CHAPTER XVm
"1 had only four bomba— wo hadn’t
had time to loBd more before the
air-raid alarm blew and we’d bad
to clear off the field— to I lighted on
the leet ihip and let go all tour in a
stick
“If you're dropping Instantaneous
fuse bombs of court you tea the
tptaeh of dock planking and debrli
the Instant it hltf but It doesn’t do
much damage — all on the aurfaco
But thesa wert delayed-action fuao
From that altitude them Isn’t much
to tea when they first crack tha
deck There's a little pauie and
then there's the sweetest geyser of
deck splinters and form and ma-
chinery and Japanese infantry cor-
poral you’d over hope to gau down
si As I think I said w blaw her
item off I kept peeking back un-
til th debrla subsided and I could
see solid blue water between tha
two halvei of tho ship '
"Wo got back to itadiun Field
Just la time to take off in the face of
three strafing Zeros our aide gun-
ner— National Guard boy we'd
picked up in Java the rest of his
outfit all stayed and gqt captured—
knocking one of them down almost
before we got our wheel up When
the other two went away wo re-
landed and found a bomb some-
where had knocked our electricity
out Wo had to refuel by band us-
ing flaihiights Alio wo ware us-
ing them trying to repair our brake
when all of a sudden came a terrific
Bang! It shook the ship ao badly
it knocked one guy off tho wing and
ho fell face-down on tb field Of
course we were sure that tha Jgpi
seeing our flaihiights had dropped
a bomb But no Oh not
"It was Just the methodical Dutch
carefully scorching the earth by
blowing up our ammunition dump
which by tome miracle w weren't
near at th time
"It teemed the order had Just
com through to evacuate because
the Jap were coming -and what
with the language difficulty this was
their way of announcing It Th
funny thing was for weeks they’d
had a gang of man working to Im-
prove that field and repair th run-
way These guy kept right on
sweating away up until th minute
the order to evacuate cam through
—than they went ahead sweating
Just as hard to blow up what they’d
Just been fixing
"We were Jittery — been going
through a lot of strafing— but finally
got our plane refueled and loaded
twenty-four men aboard W atai
bad no brakes on the right wheel
but w ill hoped together la unison
that we'd clear th runway: W
did '
'Tt was two o'clock In tho morn-
ing r As wo climbed for alUtud wa
could see refineries flaming all over
the island— fires and explosions— and
ae w circled the field in the dark
for tho laat time tha Dutch down
below us threw a switch and blew
up that beautiful new concrete hang-
ar It had huge arches like a bridge
span control tower and everything
—it all cams rolling up at us In a
parting salute
"Now we wer headed for Aus-
tralia buzzing along at about 10000
feet”
"Getting Into Broome Australia
w began to worry about that bust-
ed brake abd th momentum w
would have when w hit th field
with all these men aboard W eould
lighten ship by having th guyi bail
out but th trouble was wt had
only nlno chutes But whaa tha
pilot called tho airport they re-
ported they had ona runway which
ran uphill and waa aoft at the far
end— perfect for us -to w mad a
beautiful landing”
Jit j
’1 Wat still back In Surabaya”
said the pilot Frank Kurts "be-
cause I bad a couple of Jobi to do
Tho day wa got Warrenfeltx off in
tho Corrtgidor relief ship th Colo-
nel had told mo ho was leaving Ma-
lang tor Jokyakarta— tho town w
called Jockatrap-snd that I'd bet-
ter Join him thera and he’d send me
out to Australia AH tb other boys
of tha tKh wer going that day
But t asked him If I couldn't stay
over JuBt a little longer I waa think-
ing li ih ‘fighter pilots No on was
looking after them they had abso-
lutely’ g lialaon Whan a place Is
cracking up everybody tends to
think tf them eel ves Why bother
about th fighters They got in
didn't thtopT Wall lot them gat out
gain- The trouble was tha fighters
had got In with bally tanka bop-
ping via Timor and Ball which war
now bald by th Japa - -
"Tb Colonel said 1 waa absolute-
ly right— maybe I could help them
’You’r aadtr your own orders’ be
said ‘ T leave It to your discretion
as to bow and when you com out
Best of luck’
‘Tt wasn’t until I'd hung up that I
realized that when tha 16th bad left
Java there wouldn’t be any way for
me to get out ' The hotel by now
wa emptying fast of foreign uni'
forma— I’d bad tb first echelon of
our Navy goodby Poor old Java
was being left to sink by henelf but
since -tho newspapers were still
bout four days behind tho actual
nows tho people didn’t realize it
yet Things were moving fast
"That day wo beard a big Jap
fore wu cluing in off tho north
coast beaded for the Java beaches
Wargot reports from scout planes
oven from submarines but wa didn’t
know just bow big Jt wu Because
banging over it waa a Jap fighter
acreenoo thick that our recco plan!
didn’t daro fly throegh to see
- "Wo got a few reports from a tiny
island which liu out In the Java Sea
north of Surabaya but ominously
its radio went dead - We milled
th Japs bad put a landing fore
shore there j
“That night out went th tiny
Dutch "Nevy— it waa all they bad
left— which pounded them under cov-
er of darkness and then pulled away
There's a little
there's th sweetest geyser af feck
apUaters
It did tome good bociuu in tb
morning w found th Jap advance
guard which bad been buded right
for Java's beachee now pulled back
a little under that bomber-tad-fighter
screen waiting for tho main
force to come on up
"Colonel Eubank wu now In Jock-
strap and by telephone I put a prob-
lem up to him Tho position of our
fighter pilots in Java wu hopeless
now— any minute their field would
be hit by Jap bombers and put out
of operation I wanted them to turn
their P-40’1 over to the Dutch fight-
er pilots (who had nothing left now
but thru Hurrieanea which had
bun rescued from Singapore) and
come on out to Australia with us
wbera w could continue tho war
"Further air defense In Java was
hopeless Wo bad broken camp at
Malang— Jap bombers were swarm-
ing over the bland
"But Van Oeyen the Dutch com-
mander wouldn’t listen He wu a
stout old infantry officer and he had
given orders to Sght to tho laat
“Wo had to plead our viewpoint
with Van Oeyan Yet it would bo
hard to explain to men who were
defending tbelr home and families
in this beautiful bland whoa lives
whan it fell would be over -
"That night fifty miles off Sura-
baya the naval battle wu returned
Til main Japaneu invasion force
ringed by submarines wu headed
for our beaches At midnight tha
United Nation! Navy moved in to
throw their little aU into tho balance
This final night the Dutch struck no
glancing blow It wu now or nev-
er They moved in and fought them
toe to toe the- Australians at their
aide It was pitiful of count and
bopeleii a aU of them knew But
th gaUant Dutch preferred to die
fighting out in th night rather than
g skulking home to watt for the
Rising Sun tanks to com n tiling
down their stmts
"Sidt by side the Dutch and the
Australians plunged through that
outer ring of Jap submarines Tbs
American forces took up the last
defensive position skirting the Jap
back edge Bring on the run It
was our duty not to dissipate our-
elvu In lost causes but to do what
damage ws could and conferva our
strength to strike again
“Java died that night In th gun-
fire which cam rolling In over th
water It took until dawn for tha
Jap battle fleet to enmeb to bib
th Dutch and Australian navies
"But early tb morning before I
EDDIE
bad put In a telephone eaB to Amer-
ica It waa to Margo but it waa
government buainais and tha Dutch
when they understood what tt wai
about laid they would pay the
charges themselves They Raid th
connectlcm might not be made until
midnight ' I privately wondered If
it would go through at all Java waa
collapsing fast aU around us -'
"But I said I’d taka it whenever
K came knowing I’d get no sleep
that night— maybe little sleep for
many night So at midnight I start-
ed for the telephone offiee ’ Just a
I was leaving the hotel I ran Into
Commander Peterson of tbs Navy’s
Patrol Wing 10 By now be was al-
most the sola survivor He seemed
surprised to see me told me be waa
just leaving for his plane— tha last
of th Navy waa having Java jb
asked how I expected to get out 1
said I didn't know ‘Come with me
now be laid ‘and I’n taka you out
to Australia' I couldn’t There was
Out telephone call "And also I
mustn't leave those American fight-
era to be iwallowad up in the ed
lapse tomorrow So I thanked him
we said goodby i
"Walking to the telephone bund-
ing I could bear a dull rumble In
th hot midnight air coming from
far over the water The lew people
in the blacked-out streets asaumed it
waa distant thunder- 1 knew tt waa
tha little Dutch Navy in its Snal
agony out thar in the dark u
- 'Then I watted In that dim-Ut
mosdui to-filled telephone building
for that caU Sitting on a bench
with the help of a flashlight I made
my notes for the call Then I paced
the floor' Each time the window
opened letting out a little light I
waa sure the half-cast girl was
telling me the eaU had been- com-
pleted I had other pressing busi-
nesi but none more pressing than
this I thought of the eager faee of
the boy Just before be went out Into
wbat looked like almost certain
death” " - - --- --
"From Florida" laid Margo "1
eould hear the telephone operators
working' setting up that' line an
around tha world from here where
it waa noon to midnight in the trop-
ics And finally Frank’s own voice
‘Have you got paper and pencil? ’ he
asked ’Now take down this name
Mra W H Warrenfeltx of Hagers-
town Maryland Her son Bud ti
going on a mission and he wants
her to know there probably will be
some money deposited to her' ac-
count in the Hagerstown bank from
New York TeU her Bud lends bit
love to Billy Jane and all and of
course to her He wants her to uie
half the money to buy bar borne
and tha rest la for her to live am and
he wants her to be happy however
tt cornea out’ " '
"Then I told Margo 0m boy wai
going on a moat dangerous mission
Wa didn’t know bow dangerous until
after be left for his course took
him right across tha path of th
main Japanese fleet And not
Frank said bitterly "this little story
baa a happy ending to far as the
War Department’s auditors are con-
cerned Because the five thousand
doUars which Bud Warrenfelti
thought hit mother was going to get
when he went out to face the Japa-
nese fleet waa never paid It never
cleared through the New York banks
before Java felt I suppose those
New York bankers war more pru-
dent than Bud and took no chances
on Java paper So Bud’i mother
didn't get any money and even'Bud
himtelf never got through to Manila
Let’s hope he’s a Jap prisoner”
"After I’d written down 'the ensi-
lage to Mrs Warrenfelti ft teemed
that Frank Just wanted to visit”
aid Margo "Of course tt waa won-
derful to talk to him because for
some reason thera didn’t teem to
be eny censor clicking In on the
line"
"The censors had an caught the
boat” explained Frank "In a few
hour th Japa would have Java so
It didn’t much matter what they
knew”
"But after we talked about fifteen
minute I began to worry” said
Margo "Living on an Air Corps
salary you have to think of money
Aa wa talked I couldn’t help think-
ing tt waa tlx doUara and a half for
every minute and I said we’d bet-
ter hang up Then be explained
w could talk all wa liked because
tt waa a government ealL”
’1 didn't teU bar wbat govern-
ment ii waa on” laid Frank "She
didn't know that thi Japanese war
taking over tomorrow and they
would get th bill"
"After that tt wai wonderful”
said Margo "Frank was coming
through aa clearly ai if be were to a
pay station downtown H told m
there would be do more calls for a
while and from that I guessed that
maybe In a week or to th Air Corps
would be retiring to AuatraUa I
didn't dream that th Japanese

Frank didn't know how he could get

When "WTeahz that in lh City

Tha heart in Scripture does not
refer to th physical organ which
circulate tha blood but even as that
heart ta th center of th physical
life so thera to B -spiritual heart
which is th very center of man’s

Evil thoughts unholy d astral and
