Tourists flock to the 7,200-acre lake created by Narrows Dam.
Diamonds and the Dam
by Samuel Dorris Dickinson
paintings by Don Brown
I have boomed and waned with those of its famous diamond
HE fortunes of Murfreesboro, in southwestern Arkansas,
mine, and whether diamonds were contributing much or little
to the town's prosperity, they provided a perennially-fresh
topic of conversation to the old timers who, in good weather,
populate Courthouse Square. But in recent years it has been
such a long time between booms that the talk has turned to
tourists-and power.
About five miles north of town, where the Little Missouri
River swirls through a gorge, the U. S. Engineers have built
the Narrows Dam. Behind this big concrete structure the river

TOMAR
by James A. C
TP AROUND Grand Lake Stream and Princeton, Maine,
you frequently hear of Peter Dana, the Indian for
whom the Indian Village on Big Lake is named. You
Lewey-for years an Indian guide. But to many the
hear also of Newells and Leweys, and there was Newell
Tomah. They say that Old Soc Tomah was a kind of
most famous name of the local Passamaquoddy tribe is
god. There's Tomah Stream, which flows into the St.
Croix, bearing the name. And there was, and is, a famous
trout fly named Tomah Joe.
Many, many years ago a friend and I journeyed to
Maine's Grand Lakes to fish for ouananiche, or land-
locked salmon. We had come from Boston, and our
outfit was complete except for one elusive but very spe-
cial fly pattern. We had heard much about this fly, but
couldn't find it in New York, Boston or Bangor. It was
said in those days to be essential at certain times of the
year for trout and ouananiche. This fly was the Tomah Joe.
When we arrived at our destination we carried our
duffel from the cinder railroad siding to the lake shore.
Presently a stocky Indian approached and asked us
courteously if we had come to fish for ouananiche. We
told him that that was indeed our pleasant errand.
"You have flies?" he asked.
"Yes, many."
"You let me look?"

Coit Tower, from the San Francisco waterfront
The Legend of Lilly Coit 5
by Lucius Beebe
paintings by Katherine Westphal
FSan Francisco among its superlatives may count the cir-
IRST AND foremost of all American cities in many fields,
cumstance that it has throughout its history been far and away
the most inflammable. Other communities-New York, Boston,
Chicago, Baltimore, Chelsea and Salem-can each count a
"great fire," but San Francisco can count its municipal holo-
causts almost by the score. The entire community was de-
stroyed by fire four separate times during the years 1849 and
1850 and in 1851 the fifth and most terrible conflagration to
