Hydro Preparing
Post -War Program
Service To Be Extended To
Additional 5,000 to 6,000
Farms In Ontario
Rural Ontario will provide an an-
nual market for about $4,000,000
worth of electrical appliances and
equipment and accessory materials
after the war ends, Dr. T. H. Hogg,
chairman, Ontario Hydro Power
Commission, stated last week.
Hydro is already preparing its
post-war program of rural electri-
fication, and representations have
already been made to the Federal
Metals Controller to release addi-
tional materials during the present
year.
If this request is granted, the
Commission hopes to extend serviee
on existing rural lines and add new
tbort extensions making Hydro
available •to an additional 5 000 to
0,000 farms, thus aiding food pro -
'auction for the war. The plan calls
for construction of 300 miles of
line.
Two Advantages
Under the new rate structure to
rural users, Dr. Hogg states 97 per
cent. of rural consumers have re-
ceived reductions in cost of elec-
tricity. Existing consumers on
farms are using an average of only
about 12?z per cent. of electricity
they might consume. Dr. Hogg
said there are two basic advantages
to be enjoyed by using electricity
to a greater extent on the farms.
"MONTY" INSPECTS
RUINS OF CHURCH
General Sir Bernard Montgomery
is shown here aurid the ruins of an
Italian church iii Fossacesia.
First is an increase in production
with a minimum of farm help; and
second, farmers can make their
farms more comfortable and con-
venient places on which to live by
installiug not only a water pump-
ing system but modern household
appliances and equipnleut.
Dr. Hogg emphasized the inter-
dependence between industrial la-
bor and the farmer. ru post-war
days there must be recognition of
the fact that industrial workers
and farmers are equally important
to the stability of our ,economic
system.

CHAPTER XV
SYNOPSIS
Dave Bruer, out of a job, arrives
at Wilbur Ferris' Cross -Bar ranch.
Curran, the foreman, promises him
a job if he can break at horse cat -
led Bleck Dawn...,. When he suo-
ceeds, he discovers Curran expect-
ed the horse to kill him. A girl
named Lois rides up, angry with
Dave for breaking "her" horse.
She refuses to speak to Dave even
when he uses his savings to pay
off the mortgage on the small
ranch she shares with her foster
father, a man named Hooker.
When Hooker is killed by a shot
fired through the window, Lois
has Dave arrested for murder.
But when the local people, en,
couraged by Curran, attempt to
lynch him, Lois and Black' Dawn
save him, but -Lois Is wouided.
They are now back at Hoc<er's
ranch house.
"You think I'm goin' off'to have
yon like this?" Dave hard.

saddled Hooker's horse, while Lois
did the same to the black. Then
Dave wrapped the package of food
in his slicker roll and placed it
behind the cantle.
"Listen!" Lois whispered.
Straining his ears, Dave could
hear the sound of horse hoofs
somewhere below, There must
have been at least half • a dozen
animal'; to judge from the showers
of shale that were being dislodg-
ed. The posse was upon their
trail.
* * *
Dave darted into the cabin and
put out the light. He had no
doubt it had been seen. A yell
from the lower mesa indicated
that fact, and there sounded the
thrid of horses galloping over the
stretch.
"We're just in time," Lois whis-
pered.
Dave swung her into her saddle
and mounted Hooker's horse. Cur-
ran and his men were close at
hand now, but they still had to
surmount the slope„ that ran to :,the

be on their way here,"
"Where to?"
"There's a place I know where
they won't find us. It's a cave do
the mountains I found once, long
ago. You'll be safe there till they
get tired of looking for you, or
think you've got cleau away."
"You ain't strong enough to ride,
Lois."
"I reckon I'm all right. Give me
your hand." She struggled up in-
to a sitting posture. "I'1l be all
right," she said, slipping to her
feet. "See!" she swayed for a
moment, and Dave put out his hand
anxiously, then stood firm on her
feet, "First of a11, you want a
gun. Mr. Hooker had .a forty-five
and a box of cartridges under his
bunk. See if you can find their,"

Dave went into the adjoining
room and found the gun which he
thrust into his holster, De went
back and found Lois trying to lift
a slab of bacon from a hook beside
the dear.
He lifted it clown, got some
flour and coffee, and carried theist
outside. Lois came to the door.
"Black Dawn will come wilee I
call him," she said, "and Stir,
Hooker's horse. We'll he all right,
The saddles and reins are in
there." She pointed toward the
shed behind the cabin, its outline
fest visible in the dense darkness,
Then site whistled twice.
A moment or two later Dave,
heard the saund of a horse's hoofs
scrambling up to the edge 'e of the
mesa, In the light that carne

ly away into the scrub, and Dave's
horse was following.
The horses knew the trail in the
darkness, for they picked their
way through what seemed an al-
most impenetrable growth o t
stunted jack -pine and aspen. The
fugitives had been just in time.
They could not have been more
than a htntdred. and fifty yards
from the cabin when there cause
an outburst of savage yells, and
the rattle of a fusillade of gunfire.
"We got yuh, Bruce!" Dave
heard Curran shouting. "We saw
that light. We know you two is
tllar. Come out and take it, or
We'll burn the shack over yore
heads. We got you surrounded,"
But the black and Hooker's
brown hoeee had already penetra-
ted the tangle of undergrowth
and were ascending a trail run-
ning steeply up the mountains.

toward Lois. '
"Yell feelin' better?" he asked.
"It ain't far to that cave yuh spoke
of, is it?"
"Not far now," she :answered,
and he noticed with apprehension
how weary her voice sounded.
