The sounds of Steve Barron's horse thudded sharply, then stopped. From far back in the shadowy room, Virginia watched through the open doorway. Barron sat loosely in the saddle, 30 feet from Phil, his face dark and savage. His voice rang out: "Lanya gave you away, Lawrence. I came- at once." "I was warned," Phil:cplied flat- "I lat- "I was waiting." "You should have . known 1 wouldn't let you get away with rob- bing me." "Tt hurts, eh. When the thief is robbed." Barron's hands lay crossed on his saddle horn, "Just what do von mean by that?" Phil's voice was sharp. "Your Mexican and Indian vaqueros rustl- ed my cattle, And not only mine— but stock belonging to every other small rancher in the valley!" "You know a lot, Lawrence." "I've been spying on you for months, Barron. And I know too about your deal with Natchi--" His vo:re broke off, and he was suddenly crouched low and darting sideways. The roar of his unhol- stered gun burst as alt echo to Barron's shot. It had happened so quickly that Virginia had not been able to follow the play; she only knew that Phil lay now flat in the dust. She gave a frightened cry and ran out into the sunglare. She saw Steve Barron still sitting S: et/Leh" Wikeepoia, Small cuddle toys.

Virginia reached Phil and dropped to her knees be- side him. Barron's voice lashed out. "Move aside!" She held herself low as a shield. "Not" she tried hysterically. He was silent for so long that she raised herself to look at him. He had holstered his gun. He was swaying in `the saddle, his right hand clamped against his right side where a crimson patch had sudden- ly come to his shirt. The wound drew his face into tight lines. Then, groping for the reins, he turned Itis horse and rode slowly out into the desert. Virginia watched his sway- ing, drooping figure until it grew small. Phil's movement drew her eyes to him, He was lifting himself up, both hands placed against the ground, His face was set hard with nein. "Phil!" "It's all right," he said '.cavils' "He got me—in the leg. I lay still so he wouldn't fire on me :team She helped hint to his feet, Pet him lean against her as he limped painfully to the house. He sank onto a bunk * * * "Virginia," he said gently, "Iim sorry I let You in for this," "It's all right, Phil," she told him. The next hour was a bewildered memory afterward. Virginia was only vaguely aware that she had boiled water, washed and bandag- ed the cruel wound above Phil's left knee. She was dazed by the shocking violence. She was alarmed by Phil's suffering eyes. She sat by him and held his hand. He looked very weak. Perspiration stood in glistening beads on his forehead She wiped it away with a cool. wet cloth. He did not talk at all but stared dully at the ceiling, He lay ,very still for what seemed hours. She realized finally that his eyes were closed. His breathing was short and quick. She was startled more to find him asleep. Lanya Correy came in the half- light of dusk. She had ridden alone across those eight miles of danger.. nus country; a heavy skirt, a man- nish shirt. doeskin boots, and a som- brero. She crossed at once to Phil and bent over him. She removed her hat and her dark hair fell in soft waves to her nedk, She lay a gen- tle hand on his forehead. Virginia felt sudden jealousy as she watched. "He has a fever," Lanya said soft- ly. "it's bad then?" "I don't know," Virginia said heavily, "I know so little—I'm so helpless about such things," (Continued Next Week) DMAYSCHOOL a : LESSON By Rev, R. Barclay Warren Isaiah 1;11-18; Jeremiah 7:3-7. Golden Text; — Cease to do evil; Learn to do well. Isa. 1:16b, 17a, All religions have some forms or rituals in their worship. But these do not constitute worship. They are merely modes, Isaiah and Jeremiah did not find fault with the rituals of ancient Israel. They had been or- dained of God through His servant Moses. But they did complain bit- terly because the people, though observing the forms of worship, were living sinful lives. Hence they had no moral basis for true wor- ship. God's message to them is expressed in such sentiments as "Your new moons and your ap- pointed feasts my soul hateth: they are a trouble unto Me; I am weary to bear them". God calls .His people to holy liv- ing, "Cease to d evil; *learn to do well; seek^judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widuw." This is fol- lowed by the gracious promise. "Come now, and let us reason to- gether, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." History repeats itself. Jesus pro- nounced woe upon tine scribes and Pharisees because, like white se- pulchres full of all uncleanness, "ye also appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity." Matt. 23:28. "hristianity is no mere Sunday religion which may be put away with one's Sunday clothes. It is a vital everyday experience which motivates and permeates the whole life. The man who professes to be a saint but lies, swears and cheats his neighbour on Monday is a sin- ner on his way to hell. His worship is an abomination to God. But the promise still holds. He can be de- livered from his sins so that his life will be pleasing in God's sight, seven days in the week. ONE 'YARD of 54 -inch jersey is all you need for this blouse!

With cooler weather upon us once again, more of us will feel like doing some "serious" baking— the sort we are inclined to dodge during the sweltering heat.
