Gregor says: "A llneIl0 03 900 years by 1173 must have 'been something of an exInerIi'-i0n- Well for the oldest of the Highland clans. However. tradition sup- ports the claim that this olan was flourishing in these parts as early as the thirteenth century. about the middle of 'hich, a doughty ancestor was isting Alexander II to wrest the Western isles 1Wl'n the Norse. who, until 1263. the year of l-laco's defeat off Larzs. had dominated them for some hundreds of years." According to Boswell who in company with Dr. Johnson visited the Isle in 1713. the Chief's house was "Mean" . . . It may be that like James he set more store by his barns! "Yet the travellers were hospitably entertained by Lech- lan, sixteenth chief of the Isle. at whose appearance they were agree- ably surprised." A biggish man he would be, blue-eyed it is likely. inclined to be sternish. we sus- pect. "They found him intelligent, polite and much a man of the world; and they were aggrieved to learn from him that, owing to mounting debts. Ulva and some of the isles adjacent thereto . . were about to be sold."

After the sale of Ulva three years later in Edinburgh, it was interesting to note that the Chief. then 81. joined the Argyll High- landers in the following year, "and embarked at Greenock to take part in the American war. There- after he returned to Scotland and in isle died in Mull at the age of 106...

It is. however. as we have said. the Isle itself which. mostly in- trigues us. "Uiva forms part of the Argyllshire parish of Kilninlan and Kilmore. Its maximum length. measured from east to west. is Just under five miles. It greatest breadth from north to south is roughly three. its area is less than eight square miles."

"Apart from the cultivated acres above Ulva House. situated near its eastern extremity. and from a few small. isolated woodlands the some locality. it consists of hill and rough moorland. In Beinn Chreagach, almost at its middle, it attains its highest point at 1665 feet."

"Like so much of the adjacent coastline of Mull. and of Gometra and the other isles and islets hear at hand. it is marked by a series oi smooth green terraces. They seem to be interrupted only where tumbling water has out small and almost perpendicular ravines down their faces, lending to the scene, when viewed at a distance, a touch of purple-green. steep terraces striped perpendicularly at regular intervals in purple. During and after rain. the purple stripes be- come white by reason of the thin ' , tuous bands of swiftly falling water, many of them resembling afar the thinnest of white threads."

"Ulva is the largest of the many islu situated off the west coast of Mull. its setting is one of the most

-beautiful in the western nigh.

lands. To the north is Loch '.!tiath. beyond which lies the major part of the horizon stretches the ro- mantic Ross of Mull. with Iona at no distance from it.

"Away to the east lovely Loch na Keel. with mrsa Isle at its mouth. penetrates well into the heart oi Mull itself. almost dividing it into two. To the south-east lies the sweet and historic isle of Inch Kmlmh. backed by the lofty eagle-haunted cliffs of Gribun. . ."

Painting Hint

Put a cardboard plate under the can of paint before beginning the next job. It will catch all the di-lpplngs, and is also convenient for placing the brush when neces- sary to move from one place to another.

no big. awkward man began backing away, feeling behind him with his feet for a steady foothold. "No. it's mine! It's mlnel" His voice soared in a scream of rage."

"I said to give it to me. Wil- liam "

R.icha.rd'a voice was study. he was closer now. only twenty yards separated them. William I-lartigan't face was distorted like a small. angry boy's. He moved backward. then suddenly he stumbledl

The explosion was like a sullen thunduclap in the still air.

For a moment Richard stood quite still. an expression of sur- prise lighting his face. then slowly like a tree that has felt the last blow of the ax, he pitched forward in the snow.

"Richard!"

The anguished cry was wrung from Janet. she began struggling through the new drifts. frantically staggering. trying to reach his side. The others were on her heels. William I-lartlgan, seeing them all converging on him at once. floundered to his feet and with great leaping strides. he ran back toward the river through the orchard. He had abandoned the gun in the snow. "Richsrdi Richard, me!"

Janet's numbed fingers fumbled with his broad shoulders as Cliff reached her side and helped him turn Richard over. He threw back the side oi Richard's coat and felt around; when his fingers were withdrawn they were dark-stain- ed and crimson. The spot was be- ginning to spread across the white broadcloth of his shirt. He moved slightly, half opened his eyes. "Janet, I want you to . . ."

His head fell back as he fainted. Janet moaned softly. Cliff's voice came to her indistinctly. then he was shaking her should- er sharply. "Listen to me. Janet. we'll have to get him to the house. Do you understand?" She nodded dumbly and he turned to Naomi. "Run back as fast as you can and

speak to

ance immediately."

She left silently and he examin- ed Richards wound again. "We will have to risk it.-Abby. yoif and Janet take his feet. I'll carry his shoulders."

Naomi met them at the door, her face was white and frightened in the flickering. unsteady light of a candle. "I can't get anyone. the phone is dead and the lights are out- the storm must have knocked down the power lines. I sent Mr. Miles to the highway to stop some pasal car."

Janet watched Cliff's lips tighten irrimly. '

Cliff staunched the flow of blood and put a. sterile pad over Rich- ard's wound. He tried the tele- phone and lights evefy few min- um. but they remained dead. Then he stationed himself by the window, straining his eyes into the darkness for signs of a car. At last he stamped out his cig- arctic. "We can't wait. any longer -we'll have to. put Richard in my car and drive him ln." ' Janet felt drained of all her strength. she stood by Richard's side staring down into his uncon- scious, curiously peaceful face, feeling his pulse. watching his breathing become more labored. Naomi turned suddenly from the window. "There's Mr. Milesl I see his flashlight coming up the drive."

She and Cliff rushed to the front door. The-older man peered up at them ruelully. his mustache crusted with snow.

"Couldn't get hold of anyone- no cars passin' an' the lines are down all over."

"We'll have to take my car then.” Cliff said, "there's not a minute to lose-the wound's in a bad spot."

"You wouldn't get three blocks." Mr. Miles protested. "The new snow has fixed the road up good. There's a couple of stalled cars abandoned on the highway now. You'd get stuck just like them."

Her Tactics Are Aimecl To Discourage Engaged Girl

DEAR MISS DIX: Why should a mother deliberately try to discourage a daughter's marriage by continual belittling remarks? She likes my fiance. but harps on the fact that marriage isn't what one expects, that I'll be sorry I ever married. that it's a humdriim life of household drudgery. etc. When we are married in July. we plan to live with my in-laws. since my fiance is the only child. Mother says this arrangement 'will never work, that while my future mother-in-law may be fine to me now. she'll change completely after the wed- ding day.

I am becoming almost afraid of marriage. Is my mother right in any of her contentions. or is there a good chance of our being happy?

ANSWER: Mother-'s dolefui predictions are just the disgruntled moans of embittered middle- age. Having exceeded her own youth-and doubt- less having muffed most of its opportunities for happiness-it irks her to see anyone, even her own daughter. enjoying'a blissful romance. There is no reason why two people who love and believe in each other can't create a happy marriage-as shown by the fact that it's done every day!

HAVE YOUR OWN IIOMIE

On one point Mother is right. If it's at all feasible. you'll be much better off setting up your own establishment from the beginning of married life than starting off with in-laws. Seldom does a double household arrangement work out to everyone'a satisfaction." Rather than risk the ultimate chance of in-law friction due to a too-close association; set up your own household.

I foresee enough. trouble with your own mother; don't take any chance: on difficulty with the ollicr set of in-laws.

If your future mother-in-law is good to you now, and you re- ciprnciite her kindness with love and consideration. there is little chance of problems arising from this source.

Don't carry your mother-”s pessimism into your new life; let her know that you are not to be influenced by her dlsparagement of matrimony. Perhaps you can be a little Crusader nnd show. by your own happiness and well-being. that married life is not the thorny path Mom pictures.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Some years ago I married a divorced man. I immediately took out life insurance naming him beneficiary. I asked him about his insurance. and he said he had some but his

never hns. is this fair to me? E. E.

divorced wife has no claim to this protection. You were over-zealous in tiiklng insurance yourself. That, too, is your usband'a respons- ibility. .

DEAR MISS DIX: For three years I have been going with I! boy. Last year he gave me a ring. I love him very much, and went to marry him. but lately he has been talking and acting in such a way that I am beginning to think he's changed his mind about me and doesn't care anymore. I am 19. he is 20. How can I be sure of his feelings? i ' JANIE

ANSWER: Since you have so much ground to doubt his love, the best thing for' you to do is ask him outright it he wants the ring back. You began going steady wlth'him at much too early an ego and. if he has tired of the situation. it's not unnatural. You may feel that your heart will be eternally broken if the engagement ends, but believe me. Janie. it won't. A much nicer young man will come along soon, and you'll be happier all around.

For years there has been the classic story regarding the re. moval of part of the stomach con. taming the ulcer (stomach or 3.... trio resection). A patient told in. ,bysicia.n that he was undergoing

some idea of the results obtain. ed by removal of the part of th. stomach containing the ulcer 1. recorded in the Scandinavian Mg. dical Journal, Stockholm. by on V. Drabloe. V. Linden. and p Skjelbred. Of 492 patients wit: peptic ulcer (ulcer of the stomacl and first part of small intestine) who underwent stomach resection during 1937-1946, 14 died immedi- ately after operation-a death rate of 23 per cent. of so p.. tienta who died from six month; to four years after the operation, the cause of death was known in 22, giving a late death rate of about 2 per cent. Of the remain- ing no patients, 813 (278 men and 35 women) were examined in 1950. Of the ill: patients. 145 (46.6 per cant) had no symptoms while the remaining 125 had various symp. toms such as pain after meals, diuiness. low blood sugar, and thin blood (anemia).

From the above series of cases these surgeons state: "Since death: from operations, deaths occurring six months to four years after operation and serious symptomi and disturbances even later than four years after operation, occur- red in 20 per cent of patients. sat- isfactory results were thus ob- tained in about so per cent."

As medical treatment of stomach and intestinal ulcer is now giving brilliant results, less and less sur- gery ia being used in treatment. However, if your physician ad- vises opcration. either by stomach resectio or by cutting the nerve: supplying the stomach. the fact that such a large percentage ob- tains satisfactory results should help allay fear of operation.
