ire Can Get Along
On Less Butter
Nobody should get excited over
the possibility that the butter
ration in Canada may have to be
out this winter, as it was last,
mays The Ottawa Journal.
If there is not enough butter
to give every person a half pound
per week we must, and can, get
along on less. That is all there
is to it.

Actually wag rations of Cana-
dians have been maintained at a
very high level, and we have
smallcause to grumble. To be
far; there has been extremely
little .grumbling, and most of that
has been concerned with distri-
bution rather than with quantity.
So whether for part of this
winter we get eight ounces or
only five and one-third of butter
each per week is not a matter of
terrific moment. So long as all
are treated alike eve shall do very
nicely on whatever is available.
Women Filling
British Pulpits
Demand For Women Preach-
ers Result of Clergy Joining
The Armed Forces
So many British clergymen are
in the armed forces that there is
a great demand for women preach-
ers to fill the vacancies: and, re-
markable to relate, the Church o1
England, which has hitherto been
adamant against admitting women
to the ministry, has about 400
• deaconesses, both at home and
abroad, many of whom are Hoene-
ed to preach on Sundays as well
as week -days; in fact, to carry
out the full service, says the
Stratford BeaconeHerald. The dea-
conesses are not required to wear
any prescribed robes, but they
must wear their deaconess's cross
when officiating. . .
The deaconesses are not con-
cerned in such matters as "calls"
or Dreferment. They serve in their
capacity of deaconesses wherever
needed at their salary of about
$1,000 a gear.
All churches are experiencing
increasing difficulty in finding
candidates for the ministry, and
the probability is that after the
war many young mon who have
served in the armed forces and
who might otherwise have gone to
the training colleges will take up
other lines of service for which
their army life may have been
some preparation. Wars bring
about many changes, and one re-
sult of this war may be a wider
use of women in the Christian
ministry.
The Hun Unchanged
Through The Ages
You may rest assured that an
"inquiring reporter" would be
able to find at some street Corner
of a North American city '. couple
of people who would say: "The
Germans don't destroy libraries!
That's bunk! just a tall tale!'
The fact is that, it is difficult
to believe that anybody could be
ns repetitous as the Germans.
They burned down the Louvain
Library in 1914, they did so again
in 1940,.end in 19.113 they burned
down Naples 'University... Euro-
pean.. aro :familiar with the Ger-
nhan mentality of Systematic
thoroughness.
They are not astonished sit
anything the Germans do, for
they all know that little quatrain
which a Dutch poet of the 17th
century, Jacob Cats, wrote tether
careful observation and at a time
when his country had never been
at war with Germany:
"When the Hun is peel' and down,
He's the humblest scan in town.
But once he climbs and (holds the
r'otl •
He ignites his fellow Hien and
God."
CHAPTER X
Dave was hustled back to tee
cell and the door slammed upon
him, Tho two men went out. An
hour peeeed, during which Dave
attuned himself by looking out the
window. Mescal certainly seemed
to be wrought up over the killing,
for there were little groups of
people In the streets, arguing, and
all looking toward the jail.
After an hour Sheriff Coggswell
Dame back with a pitcher of water
and a plate of food. Ile opened the
door cautiously, set the pitcher
down inside, then the plate, and
slammed the door aguin.
"You seem to think I'm a sort of
desp'rate man•kilter, sheriff," Dave
suggested.
• „Well, 1'11 say yuh done yore bit
to keep up that iiltpressteu since
yuh struck Moseal," answered
Coggswell. "And yore talkie that
way to Mr. Lonei'gan wee just plain
crazy. He's the ceronea',e,
"Seems to me the holds a good
many offices in this town," said
Dave.
"You said something there, fel-
ler. What you said to him in the
courtroom, coupled with yore but -
tin' in and payin' that money for
Hooker, means a sure- verdict
against you,"
"Listen, sheriff," said Dave,
'•suppose I was to convince yu.h I
didn't kill hooker?"
"Yulr couldn't do it, but it
wouldn't make a mite 06 difference
anyway. I got eny duty to perform
without fear or favor,"

Lois had always known by in-
atinet that. James Rooker wasn't
her father, not' the olcl woman who
had tended her since babyhood her
mother. Her earliest remembrances
were of the westward trek in the.
big wagon in which they had mov-
ed groin -- somewhere - to the
heighta above the valley.
Growing up alone, save for the
two old people, size had somehow -
acquired the art of taming the wild
horses that frequented the waste
lands above the valley, and some-
times, came down to the mesa.
Most of them were scrubs, but a
few of diem were worth breaking
in for cow -ponies, and gradually
Lois had begun to eke ant a few
(lettere by selling them to Ferris.
It was after she bail tamed Black
Dawn that she had gained complete
control over the herd, which fol-
lowed her like sheep at her signal.
To sell Black Dawn to Ferris had
almost broken her heart, but she
knew that Louergau had been
pressing Hooker for his money.
Once the judge had made advances
to her, and she had struck him in
the face. That was Just before he
began pressing Hooker for the
mortgage money,
Then Dave Bruce had comp along
and broken Bieck Dawn, a noted
killer, who had taken the lives of
four men. Worse than that, he had

ner of her. foster -father. .

Days that way from the start. The
oheriff wasn't gifted with a bril-
liant brain, but he 'seemed au hon-
est man.
"It ain't occurred to you, I
ie'pose, that other folks might have
something to gain by Hooker's
death?" asked Dave. "It don't seem
queer to you, Lonorgan bringin'
him in here and orderin' him out
after twelve years because he was
tbreatenin' to talk?"
'What yuh mean by that?" de-
manded Coggswell.
"Well, Hooker talked to me—be-
fore he died," said Dave. "And
maybe tbat slimy murderer outelde
the window heard what he said
and figured to kill him and put the
blame on me. I guess yon ain't liv-
ed here too short a time to know
some of the things I know—about
Miss Lois, for instance."
"Now listen here, Bruce," en -
When Sheriff Coggswell an-
nounced that Dave had murdered
Hooker in his sleep, probably in
the hope of finding a hoard of
money Lois had never doubted him.
She knew that nearly all men were
like that. Sheriff Coggswell was
the one 'ran whom she trusted.
He had performed many little
kindnesses for her in the past.
When her foster -mother lay dying,
be had ridden all the way into
Hampton to bring back a doctor.
The sheriff bad roped Hooker's
body across his horse to carry it
down to Mescal for burial. "What
you aimin' to do now, Miss Lois?"
he asked the girl..
"Stay en here, just I've always
done, I suppose," she answered.
"You can't stay on here alone,
rennin' wild with that herd of
bronco, Miss Lois," the sheriff an-
awerod, "What yuh want is to go

ROMMEL INSPECTS NAZI DEFENCES
In an effort to tighten anti -invasion defences, and perhaps to
forestall an anti -Hitler peace plot by Junker generals, high Nazi
officials are reported planning to appoint Marshal Erwin Rommel to
supreme command of the German army. In a picture radioed from
Stockholm, Rommel is shown, right, with General von Hanneken in
Copenhagen, Denmark, during the marshal's recent inspection of the
lefences of northwestern Europe.

Lois, "But I'11. be in town when
Dave Bruce hangs for shooting Mr.
Rooker."
it was the simple code that Lois
had always known. There were
plenty of shootings in Mescal, and
salt -defense was generally accepted
as excusing the incident, But the
few eold.blooded murders that had
occurred in recent years had in-
variably. been followed by a lynch-
ing party. Lois' feeling against
Dave was almost an impersonal
one,

And, just as ig_her foster -father
-were stiil•alive, she busied herself
with cleaning the little cabin. She
set the blood-stained blankets in
the sun to dry, to be washed later,
knowing in her heart all the while
that she would never return.
She was going far away into the
mountains, beyond which, in her
imagination, there lay a sort of
fairyland. She felt that all the old
life had come to an end. And she
worked like a person in a dream,
sweeping out the dust; then milked
the cow and threw the milk away,
and let the animal amble out to
find what pasturage she could.
In the early part of the after-
noon she heard the sound of an
approaching rider. At first she
tbought it was the sheriff return-
ing. Then Ole recognized the gait.
It was one of the Cross -Bar horses.
Going to the edge of the mesa and
looking down, she saw Curran, the
Cross -Bar foreman.
It was more than a month since
Curran had been to the cabin, and
Lois' attitude toward him on the
last occasion had been far from
friendly. Her instinct had told her
that it was not pure benevolence
of heart that brought Curran there.
She watched him ride his horse
over the steep edge and on to the
mesa. She stood in the doorway
of the cabin and watched him raise
his hat, then climb out of his sad-
dle and come forward.
