CHAPTER VI((
Dave whirled, his haul upon his
gun butt, Foe just' an instant he
sew a 'face at the window, the
face of a masked man, The pane
was, open, and the shot had been.
fired at a dietetics of about ten
feet.
Dave drew and fired back al-
most upon the "instant, but still
too late. The faee had already dis-
appeared, and tete sibs merely
whined across the mesa, over
which the faintest light of dawn
was just beginning to appear, Sim-
ultaneously Dave heard the sound
of a. body scrambling through the
dense brush at the tear of the
cabin.
Dave thrust his gun back into
its holster and leaped toward the
door. Stopped for an instant,. turn-
ed back and looked at Ilooker. The
lamp upon the shelf east only a
faint reflection, but it was light
enough for Dave who had seen
death often enough, 'to realize that
the old man's days were ended.
Hooker's dream had come true,
In another instant Dave was
through the entrance of the cabin
and running across' the mesa in
the direction that the assassin had
taken, Ile could still hear him
crashing through the undergrowth,
but in the faint light of dawn Dave
wasted half a minute before he
could find the trail. By the time
he had done so, the murderer had
mounted his horse and was gallop-
ing away down the mesa.

By the time Dave could get back
and mount his bay there would be
not the slightest chance of captur
' Ing the man, who was now disap-'
gearing in the tangled growth of
jackpine that separated the upper
mesa from the one beneath it,
Nevertheless, Dave ran back
and, mounting his horse bare-
back, forced it along the trail
through the scrub and galloped to
the mesa's edge. It was beginning
to grow fairly light, but nothing
was to be seen. The only .living
thing was the buzzard, harbinger
of death, still floating up the upper

into the valley,, He intuit have
struck some trail in the almost .
impenetrable scrub that rose like
a low wall along the mesa's edge.
Reluctantly ])ave turned the bay
and rode back, It was half light
in the cabin now, and Dave blew
out the lamp. He looked once more
at Hooker, The blood had ceased
to flow, and the old man was ly-
iog white and stark upon the bed.
Death 'must have been instantane-
ous.
* ♦ s
Dave saddled his bay and ,rode
'off down the trail In the direction
of Mescal. There was little that
he could do now, except inform
Sheriff Coggswell and Join a posse
to take up the trail of Hooker's
murderer. As he rode, he revolved
in his mind all possible reasons
for the dastardly deed. Ilad the
assassin supposed old Hooker to
be in possession of a hoard of gold,
and fired before he had seen Dave
in the room?
Or was Lonergan involved, and
had old Hooker talked too much
in the Wayside Rest?
The shrill neighing of brown re-
called Dave to his surroundings.
Emerging upon the lower masa,
he saw Lois seated on Black
Dawn, ,with the -rest ,of the herd
massed near the scrub and look -
Ing at him, Dave rode up to the
girl.
"I got some bad news for you,"
he said. "May as well tell you right
away. Your dad's been shot dead.
Killed less than half an hour ago
by a nmrderin' skunk who fired
through the window,, while we was
talkin' together.' I went after him,
but he got away from me."
* * e
Lois' expression hardly changed,
only that set, hitter look came into
her eyes again, and her mouth
hardened.
"So you killed him, did you?"
she said. "For what? Did you think
he had money? You've found out
your mistake by now, I guess.
Delicious Custard Sauce
1% cups scalded milk • 3 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon Benson's •or ib cup cold milk
`Canada Corn Starch 1 egg, OP 1 to 2 egg yolks
14 cup Crown Brand Corn 1 teaspoon vanilla or almond
Syrup extract
teaspoon salt
Place the 11 cups milk over boiling water to scald. Meantime,
combine corn starch, corn syrup, salt and sugar well. Blend with
cold milk. Add scalded milk slowly, stirring smooth, then return all
to top of double boiler, cooking and stirring until smooth and some-
what thickened (about 10 minutes). Stir into the slightly beaten
egg or eggyolks; return again to double boiler and cook over gently
boiling water until thick (3 to 5 minutes). .Add flavouring; strain
and chill.
NOTE:—If egg yolks are pale in colour, the appearance of the
sauce will be improved by the addition of eine or two drops of yellow
vegetable colouring. If corn syrup is temporarily unavailable, re-
place the amount in this recipe with 14 cup sugar.
LANCASTERS ON WAY TO ENGLAND
On their way from the. government-owned, Victory 'Aircraft,
Ltd., plant at MaitOn, Ont., where they were built, to the ferry com-
mand airfield at Dorval, Que., for delivery to England and hte war
front, three giant Lancaster bombers are pictured : above circling
Parliament Hill in salute to the Canadian Capital and the federal
government, building's. The powerful craft circled over the city sev-
eral tinier in formation.
The Lancasters were part of
the November production at the
Government-owned Victory plant,
sister chips of the fames. "Ruhr
Express," the first Canadian -built
Lancaster, which recently figured
in operations over Berlin.
With a wingspread of 102 feet,
a 69 -foot fuselage anti a bomb
tenacity of eight tons, the Lan -
easter is recognized as the larg-.
eat, fastest and most devastating
heavy bomber in existence today.
'Powered by four Molls -Royce
Merlin motors (the only parts
not made in Canada), a Lances-
ter can hold 2,000 gallons of
gasoline and its 83 -foot bomb bay

T girl's expreaeion didn't
change. . She sat BIack Dawn;
watching Dave intently, Suddenly
she swung round on the horse's
back and gave a shrill whistle, In-
stantly the broncs disappeared
through the scrub. And in another
instant Lois had kinked the out-
law horse in the flanks and was
galloping widlly In the direction
of Mescal,
Dave tried to follow her, butiihe

Before he reached the neck of
the valley, Dave saw Lois riding
back, accompanied by two mmn,
one of whom he recognized as
Sheriff Coggswell. The other, from
the badge he wore, was evidently
a deputy. As Dave rode up, the
two drew swiftly and covered him.
Dave, without raising his hands,
reined in grimly beside the sher-
iff, who nodded to the deputy. The
]atter leaned forward and extract-
ed Dave's gun from his holster,
at the same time running his
hands over his sides in search of
a concealed weapon.
'ISo yuh think I killed Mr. hook.
er?" Dave inquired. "I was on my
way to tell y00."
"You can tell me now, Bruce,"
_Answered Coggswell. "If Hooker's
dead, as you told Miss Lois, there's
no partic'lar hurry, I reckon."
s . s
Dave briefly recounted his story
of the killing, while Coggswell and
the deputy listened in stony sil-
ence. Lois, seated on Black Dawn,
watched him with hate in her eyes,
but not a sound came from her
lips either.
"So yuh claim hooker woke tip
before dawn and started talkin',"
grunted the sheriff. "And -while
you two was talkin', this masked
feller shot him through the win-
der? How about that gun, Sims?"
"One ca'tridge fired," said the
deputy, who had been examining
it. "A forty-five."
"How about that, Bruce?" asked
Coggswell.
"I told you I fired a shot at the
murderer. I couldn't get further
sight of him in that scrub and it
being almost dark."
"Well, now, I'll tell yuh, Bruce,"
said Coggswell. "Yore story sounds
kinder queer to me. And yore pay -
in' that two hundred yesterday,
and takin' advantage of Hooker to
go pai'dners when he was drunk—
which don't hold good in law—was
queerer. And yestidclay yuh rode
up to the Cross -Bar and picked a
quarrel with Curran and beat him
up. All of which puts yuh under'
suspicion for the murder of Hook-
er, Bruce.
"So I'm arrestin' yuh, and if
yo're innocent, as yuh claim, yuh'd
beat put out yore hands and come
along quiet. And if yuh don't I'll
drill yuh!"

Through this scheme the 'min-
istry lives up to its motto—"A
Pair Share For All" by enabling
the agricultural worker to get the
meat ration (two cents'' worth of
meat per: person) which is allotted
to caterers for fol -Is who "eat
out." This is an addition to the
personal ration. School children
get the extra allowance through
school, dinners, factory workers
through workers' canteens, office
workers through the British res-
taurants, the business executive'
through taking meals at his club.
Now the agricultural worker getec
his ration in a ]lot pie.
The ministry also allows an
additional ration of cheese to
farm laborers and others doing
