General Christmas is still young

“Soldiers of Fortune."

was coming from, when a friend
who had Just returned from Central
America greeted him.
The friend unfolded a plan. He
would take Christmas to Central
America. _
.“Thcy needed engineers ‘down
there." he said. “and it don't. make
any difference if you are colorvblin
as long as you can run an engine.
Everything‘s green down there. and
.they don't run trains in the night.

This ended in Christmas going to
the tropics and landing in the midst
of a revolulion in which Ports. Cor-
tes was attacked. He arrived at an
opportune moment for the revolu-
tionists. They‘had troops. they h

but they didn't have a man to run
the engine. '
Christmas was greeted Joyfully.
would the kind Americano be .good
enough to run their train to Ports

that he have no hesitancy.
Christmas scratched his head and
went 'to the American Consul. who
told him that he. Christmas. had not
been invited down there. and had
best got out of his difficulty as well
as he could. So he. did. He went
back to the revolutionary lcadcrs.
"Look here." he said. "you fel-
lows need a man to run this engine.
“3-11, 1'” do it. but l’m not in it for
love. You've got to fix me up—
savvy!"
They did! All the Americano need
do was to im the engine to Porto
Cortex. The train was made up. a
locomotive. and a long string of
gondola freight cars. with a. small
cane-seated coach In front which the
edict-rs occupied. retplendt-nt in uni-
forms of varying hues. in the freight
cars the men were packed. an odd
assortment. many barefooted, but all
with highpowercd rifles.
Leo Christmas blcw his whistle in
true American style. The train
started and did not stop until it
reached its destination. Christmas
leaped down and bowed with s
flourish. "Hermyou arc." he crud.’
"1 hope the job suits you."

Christmas accepted the honor with
a certain measure of pride. After all.
he was rising in the world. In Louis-
iana he had been only a railroad
engineer. lit-re. already. he was a
Captain. He decided to stay with

The army, down to the last man.
nodded eagerly. Most of them didn't
know what it. was about. anyway.
Down the track they could see the
blockade. with a. few Federal sol-
diors on guard. "Let's go!" cried
Christmas. and the men clambered
back on the train. .
He threw the throttle wide open.
The Federals saw him coming. and
fired a few ineffectual shots. The
locomotive buried its nose into the
pile of timber. kcpt on going. and
dashed into Porta Cortex. The rev-

hardly a chance to fire their nice
