CHAPTER XXIV Bartle trembled with the sudden fury that shaoh hint. "The most awful thing 1 ever heard of!" he ground out, I -Ie put a consoling arnt around the young farmer's shoulders. "I'm mighty sorry, Burr, I reckon I don't need to tell .you that, But, boy, I'll pledge my last dollar, my last breath, to bring this murderer to rope! Come on with me. We've got to do something right away! At least we'll nt c the first move b)' telling the sheriff all about this." Straw Aldntan stared gloomily at the floor. "'That %couldn't help any," he muttered, ''It wouldn't help either Dad or Sam, or ate, Only you can help me, Mr, Bartle. Dad made nue promise, while he was dying, to get out of Deep \Vater Valley as soon as Sam comes home, home, But Sant is never coming honk now — see? So if I stick here, I won't be breaking my prom. ise to Dad, trill I c'' * * * Bartle considered a moment, then slowly shook his head, "No, you wouldn't breaking your promise, Burr." "Then 1'11 stick here!" young Ald• man said wildly. "I'll work till I drop, I'II pay you every ccut we owe you, Mr, Bartle, Ail I'n1 ask• ing for is time and — and a loan f r seed, for a new drying shed." I -Ie looked at Bartle's suddenly im- passive face. "Will you stake me?" Bartle sat down slowly, his brow wrinkled in thought.

Arnott As Writer Thinks So He Will Write The skeptics write to me with some reserve for the accuracy of handwriting analysis as a tneans of indicating personal character, as they do not alto„ether believe that hand- writing can be so revealing. As a point of interest to those in doubt of its scope, they need only compare their own writing with another per- son's in order to learn !tow vastly. different are the writings. There are no two handwritings the satne, a good reason why it takes an exceptionally clever person to forge another per son's handwriting successfully. Another point of interest is that, Inc matter how painstakingly the school teacher may show the children how to fortn the letters of the alpha- bet, or spend time explaining and having thein practise the correct size ands:slope of writing, the precise ti method. of dotting "i's” sn or crossing "t's, eventually each child will write according to his own indivdual men- tal capacity and traits of character, The child with little will power will not revea much' strong character, the ambitious one will show, ail ambi tions trend in his writing. Handwriting analysis reveals that a gentleman will write like a gentle• man, a crook will write like a crook, each portrayng on paper individual mental habits and characteristics— ionvincing evidence that what the writer thinks, tic wilt write.

Burr Aldntan sighed helplessly. "1 und;rstard, boy, But it puts us both in a hole, so to speak." Again the tobacco roan was lost in thought for a while. Then he rested gentle eyes on Straw's bowed red -heat'. "I know you'd come out on top, Burr," he said, "if the cattlemen left you alone, But you would have to work yourself to death to do it. Don't you think you'd better take you father's advice?" "And clear out?" Young Ald man's eyes were defiant. "I'm not scared! I want to fight hack at them." "But they'll lick you," Bartle shook his head sadly. "No, I think the best thing you can da is what your father said — try to find a buyer for the farm." * ,' * Straw Aldntan got up. "I won't sell — yet," he said tightly, "i'II try to raise a loan at the bank." "Who'll lend you anything, son?" Bartle reminded gently, "Suppose you do put up a new drying sited, on borrowed money, 'l'he same then tvho burned you out tonight Wright burn the new shed clown the (lay after you finished it!" "No, they won't!" "Yon couldn't stop them, son," Bartle said, "But there's somebody in these parts right now who can!" Aldntan shouted desperately, "El Caballero Rojo! He's right here in Deep Water Valley!" "Who told you that?" Bartle ask• ed quickly, "The same young Mex who rode by and told me about Sant," Straw Aldntan told hint, 'But before I could get any particulars from him, he was off." "El Caballero Rojo," Bartle said thoughtfully, then flashed a wide• eyed glance at his visitor. "Why thundcration, Burr, it Wright have been that red-headed outlaw who burned your shed!" * "No." Young Aldtuan was post' tivc of that, "It wasn't. Anybody will you he don't do things like that." "Who knows what he's really like?" snapped Bartle, "Except that he is a lawbreaker and a killer -- isn't he?" "All this :tuff you hear about hint being a sort of Robi t Hood is maybe just talk, I'll ,bet he's worse than any of the others around here when you get right down to it, If there is any El Caballero Rojo at all—and about th t I'm not so sure," "No," insisted the young farmer, "There is a man who rides to help others, and everybody will tell you he is not made that way -like you were saying, I know from what that Mex told me, that he saw the fire and he s..w Sam, I'm sure he'll do something about it. `!. nd even If he don't, news about him being here gives me a couple of tie wideas tnyself," Bartle shrugged resignedly, No use arguing with this stubborn boy, But he did insist: "You'll find he's working hand in glove with Pete'Haskell's crowd of beefinen;" "That's the first thing I'll do— firs out if he's hired out to them. And I know how ` to get at the truth, too." Btt Straw's confidence in' El Caballero Rojo seemed a little shaken 'ly Battle's attitude. * * * Bartle saw ;that, also, and spoke quickly, pressing his advantage, "I'll try and find a buyer tot your farm, Burr, I'll write right away .tonight to a man Iknow who might be interested. He'll prob. ably give you anyway two thou• sand for what's left of the place." #Aldtuan was startled, "Two thou• sand dollars?" he cried. "With on- ly the shed missing?" Bartle nodded. "And I'd take it ISSUE 4-1948 son. Quick. Then I'd head back to Kentucky and 'niy friends, and I'd be glad to get away from a place like this valley with my skin Whole," "Maybe you would," Aldtuan said defiantly, flinging open the door, "Rut I won't! Somebody's going to pay for Dad and Sant!" As the young tobacco farmer gal. loped off into the night, Russ Bar Ile went back to his desk, sat down, t' ok up a pen and chewed the end of it. '!'heat he wrote in a steady hand, completing an al- ready hall written letter; , the farm in question, To protect 1111' owl! interests.

Barclay Warren When We Work With God 2 Corinthians 0;20, 21; 2:1-10 Golden Text—We are taborers together with God, 1 Corinthians 3;0, One of the wonders of redemp- tion Is that man is given a part in the saving of his fellows.

At your grocer's .: CHRONICLES OF GINGER FARM By Gwcndoline P Clarks So, the l'rice \Var is really on - and even Cabinet ministers are get- ting worried,. This week -end is supposed to ace a Buyer's Strike in action, That is good news, If enough women all over the country stay with it the result may be startling, If they do it, But will they The other day I was in a grocery store and a woman carte In asking for lettuce, The clerk said they didn't have any head lettuce but there should be some leaf let- tuce coming in, only it would be sixty cents a bunch! "Ach - no matter , save itis a btinch - I don't care if it's a dollar?" replied the customer. The woman in quer• tion was the wife of a working man - but methinks he was a work- ing man with a profitable sideline - and a sure-fire rontributor towards Inflation, Yes, the average housewife can do a lot towards bringing prices down, but she can't do it all. There must be co-operation in the family too, especially with the non- essentials. No wife and mother wants to be accused of keeping a "mean" table $o naturally she goes to a lot of extra trouble,;to con- tinue providing nourishing Meals at a minimum cost, But if there is no to -operation - if, for instance, half a bottle of ketchup disappears at one sitting she may be tempted to think - "Oh well, what's the use , I can't do it all!" ,Why is it, I wonder, that young folk are so partial to tomato ket- chup? And what Is it that makers put in that we haven't got? Could it be that fifty-seventh ingredient? I have followed so many recipes but my family still insists that what I make isn't as good as what we buy, and as I never use it my- self I have to depend on what they tell me, So tomato ketchup is a problem with me all round, and with two hard working fellows In the house you can understand my Interest in how long a bottle of ketchup lasts, Another interesting development arising from the Price War is the possibility of an official inquiry re- garding the high cost of living, But if the committee appointed takes as long over the job as the Royal Commission on milk we shall be using fresh vegetables from our gardens by the time the results are made known, However, let's hope they go to it anyway. No one will be better pleased than the farmer, and It may clear up a lot of misunderstanding. Even, now the buying public is bcginnig to reali- llze that farmers have not been profiteering, The high cost of living hits us just as much as the people In town. True, we have our milk and eggs at cost • meat, too, very often - but against that you have to remember that farm - ere, by the very nature of their occupation are hearty eaters, They can't start the day with half a grape -fruit, a piece of toast and a cup of coffee and stay at work, No, the farmer must keep the inner man welt supplied so that the outer man Is equal to the work required of him, 'Well, as a change from the food problem let me tell you of a visit to a hospital I made last Sunday, where my sister is a patient, suf- fering from a ,heart condition which may keep her, hospitalized for rev' eral weeks.

"This is' no joke, Joe," Eddie Edgar. of the Press sports staff said, "1 never heard of it," said Joe, "and I don't know anything about it, But, if you put anything in the paper, will you PLEASE say that whatever she says is right? I don't want to hurt her feelings." No lord of the manor could have said it wish such quiet and yet magnificent simplicity. When Tony Galento went with Joe to be weighed in at their fight Tony took • a round -house swing at Joe's jaw. It is an old trick of the prize -ring roughnecks the idea being that an opponent may be unnerved. Joe dreamily moved his chin a fraction of an inch, "S'matter, ' um?" howled Tony, "Are yuh afraid?" "I do my fighting in the ring," was Joe's quiet answer, Junco Is Scientific Name for Snowbird Just why the Snowbird should be called a Junco nobody r2ems to know; but Junco is the scientific name and is more and more used as the common name. Even the ornitho- logists hesitate before they say that the Latin word for seed Is "juncus;" the Snowbird eats quantities of weed seed, therefore Junco Is a 10- gicat name, Anyway, there is the Snowbird, or Junco, In dark gray full dress and white bosom, his tails neatly .piped In white, says the New York Times, He Is beautiful against a snowy background•, and while one he, sitates to suggest that his esthetic sense dominates his habits, he cer- tainly thrives in snow country, Some- times it seems that it takes n snow' !torro to bring the Snowbirds, for they conte wheeling In flocks as a storm approaches.

HOVMAND The evening was dark when at 11 o'clock Head Signalman Petersen ar- rived at the signal box for duty. "Evening, Hansen; Any news?" Petersen took off his cap and coat. "They say Sivertsen 's out." So this was it; Sivertsen had been his mate but Petersen had had to report him. Sivertsen had been given a year in jail. He had threatened to get revenge, "Nothing else to report, Hansen?" "Eight cars rom the brick works. There was no room in the freight siding. They're on line No. 2 wait- ' ing to be picked up by the early morning freight. That means n through trains on line No, 2." Hansen had gone, Petersen was alone, Keep calm, he told himself, He lit his pipe and began to read the paper. The night express was due to pass at 11:27; at about 11:20 it would be signalled through from the junction. He raised his head to glance at the clock and stared sideways into the muscle of a revolver. He felt his scalp shrink. Behind him came Sivertsen's ugly voice. "Put your hands behind you." Petersen could feel his hands be- ing tied to the back of the chair, Suddenly the phone rang, Sivert- sen lifter: the receiver, "Right , . , 'all clear 1" he said. The word was that the night express was passing the junction. "I see you still have the bad ha- bit of parking cars on line No. 2," grinned Sivertsen, He switched the main line over to line No. 2 and lowered the signals. Petersen shouted in terror, Si- vertsen said("What'll happen when the fast express hits those cars? Ands what'll happen to the man re- sponsible? Perhaps you'll try to con- vince omvine the prosecution that you're not guilty? That I was there with a knife and cut you loose and ran of with the rope the moment it ' hap. pens?" Sivertsen lighted a cigarette. "I'm going down to see if the cars are properly braked, Then it'll work better." Petersen, was deathly pale. He was speechless. "What are you glaring at?" sneered Sivertsen. "Want a smoke to steady your nerves a bit, FOR FASTER RELIEF 1 1 Viu LITTLE REGGiE IIuCoId 1)1,� ia, oa f we'rsel �ktAr 111°14 e.•,$;;" G i wo is that it?" He thrust a cigarette into Petersen's mouth, lit it and was gone. Petersen puffed automatically at the cigarette. Shout for help? Use- less, there was no one near, Four feet away from him was the signal lever, Move it and the express would be saved, But he could not move his hands. He knew that 200 yards away two green lights were signalling all clear, And 500 yards further on was another signal indicating there was no dan- ger, 11:341 Sivertsen had received the junction's news of the express at 11:30. It would be here at 11:37, Petersen tried,to bend forward, The rope tightened round his wrists. Now with his. cigarette he could nearly reach the rope across his knees, The cigarette was half finished. He puffed vigorously and the glow. in- creased, He pressed it against the rope with desperate energy, drawing deeply. He heard the faint cracking sounds as the threads of the rope broke. But he heard another sound too, farther array, the whistle of the express, ' With all his might he sthetched his knees and the rope broke. He could stand upright and in feverish haste he freed his hands. A glance out of the window showed him the lights of. the approaching train. Dragging the chair with him he threw hitnsclf on the signal lever and changed it to red. But the en= gine was already passing under it and the engine driver noticed nothing. Like lightning he grabbed another lever and charged the points to connect up the main line. Five seconds later the express pass- ed safely by. A streak of light from its tofndows Marked its course through the night, Petersen looked at the clock, 11:391 Ten minutes late! Then he collapsed on the chair., TIDE ROYAL, BAND OF CANADA ANNUAL MEETING Sydney G, Dobson, President, declares European recovery most important factor in Canada's economic life, "Should American Continent fail to provide what is necessary to save Europe, the effect on our economy would be serious," Intelligent participation in Marshall Plan will be of service to both Canada and the United States, James Muir, General Manager, reports marked increase in com- mercial loans , , , public deposits again increase profits improve, Royal Bank depositors now total 1,750,000. Unique service to foreign traders provided through 71 branches in foreign countries, The vital importance of Euro- . pean recovery to the welfare of Canada, and the part Canada can play in restoring Europe to ccono- mi• health, were stressed by Syd• ney G, Dobson, President of The Royal Bank of Canada, at the bank's annual meeting. "Should the American continent fail to provide what is necessary to save Europe," he said, "the effect on our economy would be serious. I mention this because it is not generally enough realized that Canada depends to the extent of 307 of her national in- come upon export trade, In addition kk should be noted that Canada's ex- ports to the Western European countries in the last pre-war year composed 47% of her total exports, a fact which etnphasizes the import- ance of European recovery to the maintenance of Canada's econom- lc health,'' Mr. Dobson pointed out that Canada had already done much to help provide Europe with the nc• cessities of life. Canadian exports to Europe in 1946 had amounted to $932 nulliot., In the past few years Canada had provided over $2 billion worth of mid to Europe 1 in the form of loans, credits and gif, "However, what has been done tsby" Canada and other coun- tries, has not been enough," said Mr Dobson, "Plans arc under way which it is hoped will, in the course of a few years, permanently restore European economic health." The Marshall Plan, "one of the happiest suggesti..ns ever made in international relations," and the Geneva trade agreements last No- vember were, he said, important steps to world recovery. An intel- ligent progr mme for North Amer- ican participation in the Marshall Plan would be of service to both Canada and the United States, RECORD OF ACHIEVEMENT Canada, said Mr, Dobson, had been singularly blessed by Prov- idence, Notable progress had been made its both production and trade during recent years, and the stand- ards of living of the Canadian peo- ple had shown marked gains, "Caw ada's foreign trade,' lie said "reached a new high total in the first ten months of 1047, ($4,435,- 600,000), This was made up of :I'll kinds of goods, raw and processed. "Seventy-five years ago we ex- ported goods to the money value of $18 per capita; in 1946 we ex- ported goods worth $184 per capita, an increase of ten times. F,mploy, meat exceeded five million for the first time on record in August last, Productivity, too: is high. Can- ada's national income increased from $3,972 million in 1938 to $9,- 464 trillion in 1946. When trans- lated into dollars of the same value we find the increase to be 97 per cent, equal to an 'addition of $379 per person per year, "I find that (in dollars of the same 'value) the personal income of Canadians has increased from $361 per capita in 1938 to $603 in 1946, The total personal expend- iture on consumer goods and serv- ices amounted to $3,714 million in 1938 and $5,926 million in 1946, an increase of 60 per cent compared with our population increase of 10 per cent.. This increase in the sum spent on personal consumption goods suggests a significant rise in '' • standard of living." RECIPE FOR PROSPERITY These figures, Mr. Dobson said, were gratifying and encouraging, but two dangers had to be faced to maintain present prosperity. One danger was the possibility of economic collapse in Europe. The 'other was inflation, "Price rises, he said, "make it more necessary than ever for us to measure our real advance in dollars of constant value, The rest of the rise in money value is for the most part the empty air of inflation. When money incotnes are excessive re- lative to the available. supply of goods, as they are now, the logical way to reduce the pressure on prices is to increase the supply of goods, We have the physical equip- ntcnt to do this, but the human factor is needed; a competent workman seeking to get ottt of hit machine the whole production of which it is capable. I believe that what I said a year ago still holds true. There are still too many people who Make high wages and plentiful leisure the greatest aims of their lives; still too many who believe thatless production and more pay per worker is a solid base for prosperity. This is, of course, a fallacy. An honest day's work for an honest day's pay is still a good recipe for pros• perity, perhaps the only formula that will insure lower prices; a higher standard of living, and last• ing good t' 's for all, "Part of our current output, of course, is devoted to enlargement and replacement of plant and equipment. Necessary replace- ments of plant must be made, and at times expansion is essential; but a strenuous effort rnist be made to limit non -economic expansion of construction. 1\[uch construction is going forward now at costs so high that only continuous prosp- erity at prose' levels can make it pay. CONSERVATION NEEDED "Canada's present prosperity, whiclt is spread so widely in our nation, is based upon the develop• ment of Canada's natural resources, "Agriculture, because it supplies the basic need of Wren for food, is of highest importance, "This source of livelihood for farmers and of revenue for the country is worth preserving. it is becoming recognized that the fertility of our ;,o(I is not everlast- ing, Forttinatcl!

"Better protection and improved cutting practices have contributed in recent years toward preservation of our forest wealth, but there is still a very heavy annual loss from fire and insects which should be substantially reduced, Forest con. nt ~vati... is a 'must', "'There can be no better example of newly created wealth than that of our mining industry. Forty years ago the total dollar value of our twine production in a year was $42 million; in ten years it had become $108 million; its the peak year 1941, it had reached $395 tail - lion, The mines have added to Canada's wealth some $12 billion since mining statistics were first kept, 'Not much is heard in Canada about our fisheries, although they give employment to 85,000 persons in tie primary and processing branches, and the investment in them amounts to $75 million, "Development q' hydro electric power in the last forty years has een rising sharply and consistent- ly, Our present installations, pro - clueing 10/ million horsepower, place its second only to the United 1'' tes, in development of water • wcr, r,: ; as yet only 20 per cent of ottr potential power has been developed. FREEDOM OF ENTERPRISE "It is cttly right to say at this point that the greatest advances in well-being* for their people have been made in countries like our owtt where freedom of enterprise has been allied to natural resour- ces, The restrictive trade practices of so-called 'planned' economies deprive the world of that freedom of development, and expansion of business, and free interchange of goods which alone can brittl++* decent living conditions on a wide scale.

He reported that the number of depositors continued to expand and now totalled over one and three quarter million. PROFITS "II will have been satisfactory for y'rnt to Icarn that the profitgher thtisfan ms were $1,818,132.90 hi the preceding year." he said. "The amount required for government taxes was $2,850,000, after deduc. tion of which there remained $5,• 87.4,519.48 from the year's opera- tions, Dividends required a dis- bursement of $2,975,00(1 and. dep- reciation on bank premisesamount• cd to $892,687,01, After prot'iding for all the foregoing charges, there is a residue of $2,006,832.47 int Profit and Loss Account, leaving a carry -forward of $3,474,246.55." 71 BRANCHES ABROAD The ;.uportant role played by the branches of The Royal Baltic of Canada in foreign countries in providing facilities for foreign traders was stressed by \Ir, Muir, "Over a long period of years our activity in foreign countries has been an outstanding feature of ottr service t., Canadian business. \Vc have expanded in keeping with the progress of the foreign comp tri' and the development of Can• ada's external trade.

Take our heating, for instaticc, Now this is supposed to be the acne of modernity, . But, if you care to look at "Eskimo Suin- mer," a National Film Board film dealing with the Eskimo of Canada's eastern Arctic region, you will see that oil heating has been used by these peoples for countless centuries. And, even further, the Eskimo use oil for lighting as well, • in case you're interested in using oil -a la Eskimo -you first lake a stone and grind and polish it until you have converted it into a shallow, open dish, Next you gather dried moss and fashion it into a wick, which you place in your dish, Then, you obtain sonic whale oil, which you porn' into the dish around your wick, And there you are, all set, not only to heat your igloo (or skin tent in the summer time), hilt to light it as well. Ancient and Modern "Eskimo Sumner" also brings to light and contrasts the ancient and modern in present (lay Eskimo life, Alongside the stone whalc•oil lamp you will often sec a prinnls stove; again, the neighbour of the man who uses a primitive fish trap Will prob= ably be using a white man's net; and, in matters of transportation, diesel• powered fishing boats will be seen pulled up on shore alongside the old fashioned buoyant skin kayaks.

An Annual Eveiit Perhaps the isolation of; the Eskimo from the rest of the world makes then such cheerful, jolly fellows when they do manage to come into contact with 'other human beings, Such occasions are rare, but are look- ed forward to eagerly for months ahead. One such occasion is the an- nual arrival of the Hudson's Bay Company ship the ("Nascopie"- the ship that made this trip for so many years - was unfortunately wrecked in the fall of 1947), In the filen we see the "Nascopie" stopping at every settle- ment along the coast. The men aboard her, R,C.C,M,, doctors, mis- sionaries and traders -arc all as eager to see the Eskimo as the Eskimo are to see thein. As the ship lands, the Eskimo come forward, and work manfully unloading the lumber, gasoline and traders' supplies. The R.C.AI.P. and doctors check on health, take out the sick and injured, and learn of new problems and diffi- culties which have arisen hi the lives of these copper -skinned natives. Yearly Shopping Spree Tie visit to the trading post is an- other occasion for cheer and excite- ment. Furs are exchanged for wood- en [sticks, worth fifty cents each, and these sticks are regarded as money. With the sticks the Eskimo buy their supplies of rifles, ammunition, traps, tea, flour, sugar, clothing, matches, and even toys for the children. All in all the Eskimo are seen to be a resourceful and self-reliant people, who have tnade their homes in what is possibly the most rugged and for. bidding region in the world.

However, it is quite possible to start a parachute jump from ground level and without the aid of any type of aircraft or balloon. * * * To overcome one of the principal hazards attendant on novice (and other) parachute jumps from heights -the question of whether or not the chut,: will open properly after the leap into .space -a device has been worked out whereby the para- chutist starts his Junip from good old Mother Earth. The novice dons his parachute and harness and stands on a grilled plat- form, Under the grill a powerful motor -driven fan springs into action, sending up a powerful vertical blast of air. The current fills the para- chute and as the cloth mushrooms out above the student's head, he feels himself jerked off his feet and into the air. * * * Up and up he goes until his weight exactly counterbalances the force of the vertical column of air, where- upon the student begins his descent just as though he had stepped from a plane, He learns the tricks of handling a parachute, working the shroud lines to jockey for a perfect landing, getting his training with virtually all of the hazards of the more familiar kind of parachute jumping eliminated. Foreign Trade Suppose we decided to forget all about this headache of foreign trade, as some misguided people suggest, and try to live within ourselves, what would it mean? asks The Financial Post, H, V, Lush, president of the Ca. nadian Exporter. Association, an.. swered that question very plainly recently, With .no importing or exporting, he said, immediately 784,000 Canadians would lose their jobs and wage and salary earn. Ings would shrink $30,000,000 weekly, That would be the direct loss, What would be the effect of such a blow on all other industries, oth• er jobs and other payrolls can only be imagined, PILES -Modern medical epi• enco has overcome all - menta formerly thought Impossible, PIIee were considered one of them. That's nonsense today. The new P8Itone treatment has proven it - Belt In thousands of the most stub- born cases, It gets results because It goes direct to the Internal cause.
