In the first place, thia country Is not a military nation aad the people resent the thought of a large standing army. Two days after the fighting was over in Germany and Japaa. the cry went up “bring the boys home.'' That to the America* way of fighting wars. Now, with victory ia Korea almost assured, those who have watched the effort are astounded that the military could put a war machine together in forty days and take the offensive. This country may be forced to support a large army to future years, built with the thought of defease,' rather than taking the offensive in any troubled corner of the world. Flogs For The UN: Betsy Ros* and her helpers who put together the first American Flag, with Its underlying meaning oF freedom and independence, have successors of the present generation in groups of women and girls who have been making United Nations flags to be used in the celebration of United Nations Hay on October 24. The .Department of Agriculture. In connection with its extension service, has sponsored the project to tostruit rural women and girls In this work The United Nations flag stands for the hope for a world united —and at peace. Betsy Ross’s hapdlwork represented the hope that thirteen small, seemingly defenseless colonies, so recently cast loose from Jhelr colonial ’ moorings, might form a strong independent nation That hope has been abundantly realised. The larger aspiration of the UN seems a' the moment even less likely to be accomplished than did that of the founders of this nation at the time their flag was pul together. Not only time and patience are required to this purpose, but also the willingness to work hard and untiringly and even.to fight that It may be achieved. Above all. we must never give up hope

She ate in si* fence, and after she'd poured coffee she said. "Did you have troutte at Hammer?” "No one was there but Tana. She fixed the Sack tor us." Marybelle pursed her lipa. “She knows about Cory being up here? And me?" ives nodded. “That was foolish. Doe," Marybelie said, a trace of anger m her voice. "We'll have Hammer upon us before the day's over." "You don't know Tana.” "1 know women.? she countered “You think a secret's safe with her because you think you've made an appeal to her sentiments. It's you men who are the sentimental ones. A woman will weigh any knowledge tor exactly what it's worth. Your Tana's Colonel Carradines granddaughter,, isn't, she?. She II see that Uns chance is too good tor the colonel to puss up." Ives felt "the beat grow tn* him. “Do you think she wants Cory's blood on her hands '" Marybelle made a face. "She'll talk herself out ot that. She'll nave herself believing it's for the best A woman can turn black into white taster than any man could think ot doing it." He put down ms coffee cup.

Marybelle said. Her voice was starchy; her voice dominated Cory. He allowed himself to be ted. Afterwards Ives moved to him. "Let's have a look at that arm." He kept his thoughts to ntmselt as he examined the wound. It was doing as well as he'd noped, but some part ot hu judgment he reserved. even from himself. He called to Marybelle tor hot water, and he had a sheet torn into strips , and the strips boiled, and later he dressed the wound fresh. Cory watched him always tn silence, his eyes hard and his lips drown down. Cory looked infinitely younger than Marybelle; be looked older than ’ time. When Ives was finished. Cory glanced at his sister. "You've got a norse? We ll be getting out ot , here this morning." Ives said, “You're going to stay , where you are. At least today." I Cory said. "I know you're a doftor.

Now quit acting like you ought to tic spanked!" ives expected Cory to answer her in kind; instead he sank Into sullen silence: Ives didn't kfiow which of the two was the older, i but he knew now which was the dominant one, Cory said grudgingly, “1 guess I'm beholden to you. Ivos You’ll tie paid tor what you did.” Ives said. “Have you got halt a hundred dollar bill. Cory ?” Cory looked surprised. “I've never seen a hundred dollar bill in my life."

When ne tours, the creek, ne followed it along: soon he board splashing; ne remembered me Bret meeting with Marybelle and smiled to himself, but this was na swimmer. He.be* came cautious; be made his tootfalls light and was glad the gun waa at ma nip. He took out the weapon and Bngeeed it, then slid it back Into the bolster. He’d never been very sandy with a gun. Soon ne came up to Tom Feather squatting beside the creek, a gold pan in his hands. Feather waa swirling water in the pen, making a greet ritual of thia. The old man waa completely absorbed. “Hello." Ives saw easily. Feather looked up with no more thart normal surprise. He grunted a greeting and bent his eyes to his work again. "Any color?” Ives asked. "Tobacco money, maybe." Ives paused a moment, wondering what sort of words could build a bridge to this man. Then ne made his plunge. "You know a fellow nameo Jun lyes? Hailed »rom Texas, 1 believe."

"Sorry to have bothered you. old-timer." He turned back to the shack; Cory was ewak. but Cory said nothing when he looked in at the dooe. Ives crossed the clearing again and found a grassy spot among the trees ana stretched him 1 sett upon the ground, using ms hat tor a pillow. About him was the sky. blue ano cloudless and remote as anything m the worM could oe. Ives removed the bandage from about ma need. He'd grown tired ot that bandage. He closed ms eyes.

"They didn't eome a-whooplng and a-hollenng. But they called at every shack. They asked if Rod Benedict waa around, it's pretty plain now the colonel figured.
