CHAPTER X1 to t:a:. entered the hut bear- ing two earthen howls. Virginia sat up and watched the woman with frightened eyes. The bowls were placed before her, and the woman stepped back to stand watching her with dark, curious eyes. Behind the squat form, at the local's opening, crowded a group of bright-eyed elttldren. Virtinia looked at the bowls. One contained water. She lifted it and drank. The other held a pasty food made of ground mesquite bean. She did not touch that. Shortly, two men entered. One was short, wiry, his skin not white, not copper. His coarse features, flat nose and impassive expression sug- gested Apache, But his eyes were light in color, a bright blue. He was a half breed. He wore mixed apparel; shirt, trousers, both incred- ibly dirty, and moccasins and a red headband to hold back his stringy black hair. He squatted down be- fore Virginia. The second visitor was Natchi. Virginia remembered his broad, flat -featured face, his natural air of dignity, his cruel brown eyes, his wolfish lips. Natchi, the marauder, who had attempted to capture Jim Randall, whom he hated. Natchi sat down cross-legged and regarded the white girl with glit- tering eyes.

ISSUE 42 - 1949 at as a statue for the whole of five minutes, Then he spoke gravely, his eyes dropping to the turned -up toes of his moccasins. His words were quick, loose, without coherence for Virginia. But when he finished, the half breed interpreted. "Natchi say white woman stay here. No harm. Maybe day come you go back to white husband." "Why was I brought here?" Vir- ginia asked; courage returned wiU a rush. She would come to no harm, Natchi had said. "You wife of white soldier with blue eyes, Natchi say. White sol- dier capture Natohi's son. Natchi capture soldier's wife. White soldier value wife much, Like Natchi value son." Virginia's new - found courage vanished, They thought her Jim Randall's wife. They meant to hold her as a hostage -to force the re- lease of Natchrs imprisoned son. Despair rose in her. She said, "You are wrong. I am not the soldier's wife." -The blue-eyed man interpreted for the Apache. When the exchange of words ended between the two,. the half breed said: "Warrior saw you with soldier. On desert beyond town. Soldier have you in arms, You wife, alt righ t." * * * Virginia wilted, There was no argument for her. She had been in Jim's arms that night the Indian had spied upon them. She looked at Natchi's stoic face, and said: "You think the soldier will come for me?" ".end when be does -what?" There was another guttural ex- change of words. Then: 'Soldier free Natchi's son -or you go south." The breed gestured. `Mexico, No come back." Fear and dismay froze her tongue, She watched the Apache chief rise and end the interview. The two men turned out of the hut, leaving her alone wih the squaw who sat at the opening. Jim Randall crossed the parade at Fort Winfield with a long stride, The orderly had said Maj. Benson wanted to see him in a hurry. There was a dust -begrimed, lathered horse standing before the command- ing officer's quarters. Jim stepped into the dobe and saw Lanya Correy with Benson. The girl's riding clothes were dusty. Her eyes looked tired; her face was pale. She was twisting her hands together nervously. Maj. Benson wore a troubled look. He was saying to the •giri, "You're sure they were Apaches?" . (Continued Next Week) Bricklaying Made Easy -The "first real improvement in five centuries in the method of laying bricks" is demonstrated by co-ed Kitty McGlynn. The device, invented by engineers Paul H. Sommers and John S. Hodgson, is said to speed bricklaying four times the normal pace.

Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee Q. What are the bridgegroont'a expenses for a wedding? A. The marriage license, a wed- ding present for his bride, a per- sonal gift for his best man and each of his ushers, the bride's bouquet, the wedding ring, clergyman's fee, and the expenses of the honeymoon trip. If he desires, the bridegroom may purchase the bouquets for the bridesmaids, but he is not obligated to do to, and these are usually the expenses of the bride or' her par- ents. Q. Is the correct form of intro- duction, "This is Mr. Smith, Miss Brown," or, "Miss Brown, this is Mr. Smith?" r A, The latter form is correct, as the woman's name should always be spoken first, Q. Should h S the escortof a woman 11 )tan acknowledge the courtesy if, when entering to crowded streetcar or bus, another man gives up his seat to the woman? A, Yes, by all means.
