The money was seen to be paid over by a mill-operator of Spokane.... And your father is reported to be suspiciously interested in the I.W.W. men now at Wheatly." "Oh, that's awful!" exclaimed Kurt, with a groan. "How did you learn that?"
"I'm sure glad Jim didn't wait for the draft," replied the father. "Well, mother an' girls, Jim was gone when I got to Spokane. All I heard was that he was well when he left for Frisco an' strong for the aviation corps." "Then he means to to be an aviator," said Lenore, with quivering lips. "Sure, if he can get in.
