Lawrance Starch Co, Ltd, D20 SERIAL STORY INTO THE S ET By Jackson Gregory SYNOPSIS Bary Haveril leaves his Texas home. to see the country, meets a man who has just been shot who . turns out to be a cousin of his, Jesse Conroy. When they part, Barry leaves for home and comes across the murdered body of his brother, Robert, Barry starts searching for the murderer and finds a spot to get gold. He goes to Tylersviile to get money for it. There he meets Judge Blue and his daughter, Lucy, who helps hien to get $450 for his gold, Judge Blue also tells him that the gun Jesse gave him is the gun of a murder- er known as the Laredo. Kid. The Judge invites Barry up to visit him and there Barry discovers the horse and saddle which was stolen from his brother, Robert, when he was killed. He finds out that it be- longs to a cowboy who will return that night. He waits outside the stable and finally a rider comes up who turns out to be Jesse Con- roy. He accuses Jesse of killing his brother and of being the Laredo Kid, Judge Blue comes up behind, knocks Barry unconscious and tells Jesse (Laredo) that Barry knows where there is gold and he's keep- ing him until he finds out where it is. Barry escapes, however, and as he is riding through the moun- tains a shot whizzes past his ear. The man who fired the shot ex- plains that he thought Barry was the Laredo Kid. x, , u: CHAPTER I`a. "It I was only shore," complained the divisible lnan. Then he said mors brightly: ,`Step nut where I caa see. yuh good. If yule ain't Lar- edo 1 won't drill yuh." Berry stirred ever so slightly, still e.ouching in the hollow, and thus at last was able to make out the form of the other man, stand- ing close to a pine. He lifted his gun anti covered that dim form steadily. Then he answered with quiet emphasis: "I've got you covered! Wiggle your ears and I'll be the one who'e drilling yon! Up with 'em! High up and, quick about it!" A. moment later the two, stand- ing fronting each other in the op- _ en, amply satisfied themselves that neither was the Laredo Kid, Barry fouud himself looking down into the upturned face or a dried-up little old men. "No, yuh ain't Laredo, dang it," admitted the little gray man, and sounded more disgusted than ever. In the same querulous voice he growled: "Deng it, I dunno how I come to miss yuh like• that, nuther. I ought to've got yule. dead center." "What have you got against Late edo',,, AFTER LAREDO "Aplenty! An' if I never do an- other deed o' kindness, long's I live.

Metbe it'll be a long chase, with him on the, jump like he. is—" "Where'd he go? When?" de- manded Barry. "What's happen- ed?" "Wait till I go git me my gun." 1=Ie picked it up, dusted it off against a pair of ragged old over- alls. "Come along over to my ctimp, It's only a short piece back up in the gully.

ISSUE 38—'40 Ll Arabella was as small and tough and dried up for a burro as the little gray man for a human being. The old Iran by his own account was a Shiftless prospector. What his real name was he never reveal- ed; he conceded that men called him Felly or Dad or Timberline, and that long age he had come from Georgia. Yep, he knowed Laredo well, and he'd knowed him a long while. Like- wise he knowed Judge Parker Blue, an' knowed him a lot hetter'it most! He refused to discuss the Judge, save generally, and beyond hint- ing broadly.that he had a fund of secret knowledge about Ju d g e Blue's past. In the Laredo Kid's case, however, the gates were wide open. The Kid, said he, had managed to get himself into such a mess that there was nothing left for him but to skedaddle, which he did with bullets pesterin' him like a swarm of hornets. Laredo had busted stivare into the Jamboree Saloon, and killed two men. But he did even more than that. One kill- ed was Jake Ha.nl,moted, a man that folks liked real well. And Jake's kid Jackie, only nine years old, happened in there, sent over by his mamma to bring Jake home; and Jackie saw it all and went crazy over it and ran and grabbed Laredo by the legs. And Laredo said, 'Tull want some too, do yuh, yuh tittle—" and shot him through the head, "He went out laughing, the boys said, but he went fast." "THEY'RE GONE NOW" 'Laredo, he crossed my trait close to six months ago; I was out ou a desert stretch a consid'able ways from here, southwest. I don't do much taikin' about what happened! --but I been after him ever since." Presently Barry said, thinking about his plan for toiuorrow: "You seem to know a good many folks around here, Timberline. Hap- pen to know anybody out at the Judge's new ranch about 'thirty miles from Tylersville?" "I was out that way recent, pros - pectin' them little hills with the red gullies in 'em. There was some new folks out there, a man name of Haveril an' his wife. A real purty little woman she ,.as, too." He pull. ed at his mustache. "I was goin' back to see her some time, 'but she's gone now." "Gone? Why, they were there only three or four days ago," "Gone now though. "Y'see, young feller, whatever happens in this country gets talked about in Tyler, an' whatever gets talked about in Tyler, I find out when I drop in Three-four days ago the Judge bust- ed out u' here, headed somewhet'es else. Some folks says he went East an' some says West; it' my bet he's headed Californy-way, Anyhow, he took his gal Lucy with him; an' he took his new hired hand, that Zack Blount, an' his party young wife along—they say she's a Hav- eril, too. An' he stopped aft at the new Branch, an' told 'em there he'd sold it, an' he chased them Hav- erils oft; an' fonts say they for shore headed to C.aliforny." .He cocked a blue eye at Barry, "What yule askin' fur?" he wanted to know. "Th.ey're my 'folks," said Barry. "Father and mother and brother; and Zack Blount's wife is my sis- ter," NOBODY IKNEW HIM - "So you are a Haveril too, halt? Shake, Reverie" Absently Barry shook as direct- ed, feeling his hand gripped by a small one that seemed old leath- er on the outside, spring steel with- in, First Barry returned to Tylers-. vil.le. Z -1e went openly, in broad day- light, but he was watchful at every step. No one molested hint; none seemed to have any memory of him. (To Be Continued) Victory -- And Peace Since the beginning of the; eighteenth century,. the longest period of peace for the world was the 39 years :Following the, fall of Napoleon in 1815. AUTOMATIC DOUBLESOOl(LEt Flowers Give Lite, Grace Room .Much Brighter They Are Used For ation When pecon Any room gains life and grace through the addition of cut flow, Mrs or growing plants. Help in plac- ing thein to the best effect is of fared by ingenious new types o.! furniture, ranging from coffee tab- les to wall shelves, provided with metal -lined receptacles. Small tables are among the most effective of these new flower -furni- ture combinations, writes Walter Storey in the New York Times. The curved ends of a slender -legged Hepplewhite table with a drawer holds two copper pans in which flowers may grow or cut flowers be arranged. Coffee tables also are seem with shallow copper pans set in the top at either end or along one side. ON TABLES, SHELVES There is a variety of small wall shelves which, like the other flow- er furniture, are usually made of mahogany. In one type the entire lower shelf—there are three—is taken up by the copper plant con- tainer, which has a wooden front to suggest a drawer. Another style has plant holders at the sides, so that all the shelves are free for the display of books or bric-a-brac. GRACEFUL DESIGN Wall brackets for flowers follow graceful designs. One, in the form of a lyre, has a curved front con- tainer below it; another is given distinction by an open, trellislike back in graceful colonial style curves, up which ivy may twine. Although not especially equipped for holding plants, some of the small pedestal stands make admir- able places for jardinieres, Gets Distinguished Flying Cross .A. native of Gleichen, Alberta, Pilot Officer J.

The big hat may be a fur hat or it may be one that gives the effect of a little girl with her mother's hat on, but fashion has said that is the way to look, fall, 1940. But the small hat may be so interesting and so capable of hold- ing its own in the fashion scene that it, too, will add variety to the hat world. The leopard will give up his skin to the milliner this year, and the hats she already has evolv- ed from them are so alluring that any person with an old leopard skin may as well get it out nuts go to the milliner with all speed.
