"One thing at a time," said
Valdez, "Where are the clothes
you wore?"
A feeble hand pointed toward
the cold fireplace, Valdez soon held
the cheap fiesta garments, and the
sash and neckerchief which had
been crudely fashioned from a
turkey 'r ed calico, curtain, He
dropped 'the thion .the ashes
and touched a match to then.
"Bought, '"em from a Mex va-
quero I know," mumbled, the boy
on the bed, "But I can see now
they were not much like yours."
"What made you try such a fool
move, amigo?" Valdez asked,
"I—er—well, Russ Bartle was
saying you ntightl be hired out to
bcefinen," Straw Aldman said he-
sitantly. "So I went there to their
meeting knowing they would wel-
come you—me—if that was right."

Valdez' laugh was short and, icy.
"I see. But don't you see there
must be a reason for that man
Bartle to lie like that?"
"You mean he lied on purpose?"
Young Aldman frowned, "Not Mr,
Bartle, You're wrong there, He's
a fine man. "He—"
"He'll have a chance to prove
that—pronto."
The old man stepped forward.

reason to quarrel with Bartle, un•

credit for tools and things to build

"Have it your way, Mr, Nelson."
Valdez shrugged. "But if this man
Eartle should by any chance be
responsible for what I saw on Don
Attero's Cross, and for what hap;
petted on this farm last night, then
it's certain that some other Good
Samaritan will have to stake you
folks to things—somebody who
will not want to be repaid with
blood,"
He sank upon the bed and brush-
ed the sandy hair back from Straw
Aldman's eyes,
"Now," he said, "tell me what
you know, son. Everything—from
the day you first knew you were
going to settle here in Deep Water

if life and confidence had flowed
back into him, He even smiled a
little, hopefully, Hope that was jus-
tified, as far as the red-headed
avenger was concerned—but not
even he, any more than the other
three in the sickroom, could sus•
pect that even now death lurked
outside,
El Caballero Rojo was confident
of the safety of all of them, bet
cause he knew that since dusk
Juanita should have been on hand
outside as he had told her to be.
And if danger should threaten, the
call of a mountain cat would float
on the night air.
Sheriff Bill Lande ended a long
vigil, spat a wad of tobacco into
the cold stove and banged down
the lid,
"No fool like an old fool," he
said aloud, "What in thunderatlon
ever made inc think that Pete Has -
kelt or 'Tim Callan would try and
kill Russ Bartle? Should have
known that plenty of smoke means
Banged little fire."
\Vas that a rider pulling up out-
side At this hour? Lande snorted
and went toward the door(
* * *
The stranger at the door was a
man in store clothes, Though un-
known to Sheriff Lande, he was
Clarke Weber, newly arrived set-
tler in Deep Water Valley,
The sheriff opened the door for
his visitor to enter and lit the oil
lamp.
"Well, sir?" he snapped,
"I thought maybe you'd give me
a little official information."
"About what," the sheriff asked,
"Rewards," Weber's grin was
wise and boastful. "I want to know
where I stand If I deliver to you
a ratan worth money in several
states—say five thousand here, and
ten thousand over in New Mex,
and fifteen thousand down Texas
way, Exactly what would I get?"
Lande's temper was testy, "What
in tarnation you want to know
that for? Or maybe you're Figur
ing to try to deliver this gent where
he's worth most—unless everybody
pays for the one delivery?"
"Yes, I think it's good business
to—"
"So do I—to get your titan first,
\Vho is he?"
"I'd rather not say right now."
*
Suddenly Laude, with a growl
deep in his throat, darted behind
Weber. He pushed the matt away
from the outer door and twisted
the key in the lock.
Lande clutched the man by the
scruff of the neck and the seat
. of the pants. He half pushed and
half kicked the stunned Weber
across the floor, shoved hint into
the rage and banged and locked
the door,
'Reckon you better change your
mind," Lande snapped, "Till you
do, you're under arrest, Maybe
you didn't figure that concealing
the whereabouts of any wanted
man is as good as working in ca-
hoots with hint,"
Until Lande had blown out the
light and returned to bed, Weber
was undecided what to do. He
could see gold dollars sliding
through his greedy ringers, and the
thought pained hint,
"Sheriff•" he finally called in the
chilly darkness.
"Yeah?" growled Lamle,
"It—it was El Caballero Rojo I
was talking about," Weber stam-
mered reluctantly.
* * *
Silence. Then the sheriff's bois-
terous laughter shook the • flimsy
building. He slammed the wall be-
side his bunk with his meat -cleaver
fist,
"El Caballero Rojo!" he roared,
"And you worrying about how
much you'd collect on his scalp!
Why, you si►nple-brained squirt, if
you lifted a finger against that
red-headed hombre he'd eat you
alive—saltless--before you could
sneeze! You just better thank me
for locking you up, I'm saving
your life, you poor dutnb weasel."
"But I did see him," Weber in-
sisted, "I did have a guts on him,
too. I'm a good shot, but—"
"I know. He's a better one,'
Lande swung his feet to the floor,
"He shot your iron away, huh?
That why your paw is bandaged?"
"Yeah," Weber admitted, "I
came upon him just after he had
finished firing a tobacco drying
shed. And I also believe he hung
A young fellow on Don Attero's
Cross."
The sheriff sat reflectively on the
edge of his bed, not answering.
Then Weber could hear the stamp-
ing of feet getting into tight boots.

Script Reveals
True Character
Docs that boy you love so notch
write a script like the writer of
this week's illustration? There arc
so many variations of character
indicated in this script that his be-
haviour will probably bewilder you
at times and cause you to wonder
whether he is as sincere as he pro-
fesses to be. He probably does
not understand himself as he should
and if his actions arc mysterious
and unsettled, there is a reason for
it.
* * *
Just look at the writing below.
See how spacious the script is and
how far flung the letters and words
are. There is nothing cramped
about his writing. How could any-
one expect this fellow to narrow
his thoughts and actions down to
a common cause, to follow a single
line of thought, to concentrate on
one thing for a long , 'riod of time.
What he desires most is plenty of
room to think, to broaden his
knowledge, to cover a lot of ground
just as he has so clearly indicated
b� the spaciousness of his writing.
Now we have the anwcr to his
unsettled nature. He hasn't the
personality to stay put; he is the
outdoor, adventurous type and niu,t
be on the mote if he is to be
happy,
* all wrong, You had better get them
* all together and have an under-
* standing, before their disregard of
* their parents' situation becomes a
* permanent attitude,
TO "MRS, F, S.": I understand
how anxious you are to adopt a
child, and l'nt in favor of it —
later, After you have had your
operation, you will know how ouch
your health improves; ` and when
you get a larger house you'll have
the extra room which the agency
demands for the baby. This delay
will quell your family's present
objections, too,
It is likely that when you Jo
adopt a baby, your husband will
take more interest in the house and
also in helping to train the child,
Remember, though, that supporting
and educating a child costs more
as it grows older; so he is. wise to
plan to increase his income •where
be can.
Meanwhile, take as active a patt
as you can in your church activi-
ties and community affairs, I know
you do your part of the work on
the farm, but outside interests will
help balance that, and make life
more pleasurable for you, Then
you won't get so depressed,
A woman's health depends large-
ly on how happy she is, how satis-
fied with the life she leads. It is
my opinion that when you do adopt
a baby you will find your strength
adequate, and your spirits improv-
ed, So later on, when you come
home from the hospital, you will
find out whether the idea is its
practicable then as you hope.

Eternal Life
Colossians 3:1.4, 12.17; 1
John 5: 11.12,
Golden Text — And this is life
eternal, that they might know tlice
the only true God, and'Jcsus Christ
whom thou hast sent, — John 17:3,
The resurrection of Jesus Christ
from the dead is the most astound-
it1 miracle, That Ile, whose side
was pierced, rose from the grave
after three clays, nevermore to die,
sealed the fact of Itis divinity, No
wonder the chief priests and elders-

ldersbribed the soldiers to tell that the
body was stolen away while they
slept. His resurrection is set forth
in the Scripture as a prophecy that
we too, shall rise from the dead at
,His appearing in glory, It is also a
type and a symbol of the Christian
life even now, It is this last sense
that is emphasized in this lesson, "If
ye be risen with Christ, seek those
things which are above — set your
affection on things above, not on
things on the earth," We must have
clothes, houses, cars, etc,, but we
need not set our hearts upon them.
If we are possessors of eternal life,

* * *
Paul exhorts those who are risen
with Christ in this newness of life,
We trust be merciful, kind, humble,
meek, long-suffering and forgiving.
Holding all these graces is divine
love, which is the bond of perfect-
ness. Cod's peace is to be the umpire
in our hearts, We are to be thank-
ful,
In such hearts there is music.
Psalms, hymns and spiritual songs
are the vehicles of expression for
the music within. Some are poor
singers and yet have the singing

pounded the piano with his feet (that
was worth the price alone), and a girl
with a geclar. They always started
off the evening and ended it by
singing that loVely old ballad, "Bury
Me Out on the Prairie". The last I
heard of them, they were being bur-

CIIRONICLES Of GINGER FARMS

Have you ever taken a letter
from your mail -box, looked it over
and wondered what manner of news
is under that sealed flap? One
minute its cortnts are a mystery,
the next, by breaking the seal, you
find, ..what? AA yes, so many
things. Good news, bad news, or
just ordinary family gossip, You
know so-and-so has had a baby
. Uncle Tom has sold his farm..
Cousin Jean is getting married next
month, Yes, that envelope can
hide shocks, pleasant surprises or
just plain family news, But when
yoti get a letter that you know is
important, don't you sometimes feel
scared to open it? You tare so
.hoping the news will be good, on
thc.other hand you have reason to
fear it may be bad.
* *
That is how I felt twice last
week. You remember I had news
that a friend of ours in England was
to Visit us this summer. Well, a few
days later came another letter, from
the same friend, That was the one
that scared me. Partner said —
"Another letter from Cicely — I
suppose she isn't coming," Fearfully
I slit the seal just a title bit — I
couldn't bear the thought of bad
news at one full blast. Peeking, I
read the first line — "prepare for a
shock I.. ," "Oh clear, she isn't com-
ing." I almost wailed. "Well, open it
up — let's find out what it's all
about," urged Partner, So I opened
it — and it wasn't as bad as I
feared, Cicely is still coming but not
10 stay a year as was her original
intention. The reason — and I
quote from the letter — "England is
so desperately short of experienced
teachers that if I retire this year I

Your Career Future?
Fred Johnson was an up-and-com-

clerk in a big company where he
hoped to get ahead.
One fine day the chance caute—
a junior executive opening with re-
sponsibility and a pay raise!
But Fred Johnson was stymied,
His typing was poor and slow and
the job called for weekly reports to
the main office,
So — another opportunity knock,
ed in the waste -basket because of
poor training for the business world
in the first place.'
And Fred Johnson is no isolated
case, It could easily happen to you
in your job — a chance to move up
the ladder shot to pieces because
you can't type.
Learning touch-typing at home
is easy enough If you put your mind

Well, that is as far as I got last
Friday, Then I had a call to go to
Toronto. I had a busy time, Shop-
ping Friday afternoon, a meeting
that night — the real purpose of
my trip — more shopping next
morning and a trip downtown to
see Barbara Ann. And I really
saw her — and she is just as sweet
and charming as the best of her
press photographs make her appear,
Not only that, I saw her crazy little
hat! The crowd was terrific, At
first I was right on the outside and
couldn't see a thing. Then as others
came behind me I was pushed along
until I was right in front of the
City Hall steps with Barbara Ann
directly in my line of vision, It
.was hard to realize that such a
dainty little lady had had the skill
and perseverance to bring so much
honour to her country.
After the ceremony the
crowd pushed me along down to
one of the i'epartntent stores
— honestly, I didn't take one
step of my own volition. I had
lunch on the seventh floor of the
store, When I carne out only two
elevators were working and they
couldn't begin to accomodate
the crowd so I got my after-dinner
exercise by walking down seven
flights of stairs, Then Following an
afternoon with Daughter I took the
train for home — and the pas-
sengers didn't have to pile out
and push the train — you may
retncntber my last trip on the bus.

Grigsby gives clear and definite dir-
ections for taking a dress out of the
home-made class and putting it into
that of the couturiere,
The one question in the non-
professional sewer's mind is "Will
it look home-made?" for that has
been a stigma on home sewing.
Here, explained in simple and dir-
ect language, are all of the neces-
sary steps from understanding dir-
ections on the pattern, to achieving
particular quality that lends profes-
sional distinction.
Numerous drawings and graphic
charts give greater clarity to the
text, lending a stimulus to the read-
er's natural artistic and creative
ability.

History's Greatest Drama Comes Alive in Passion Play—These
moving scenes depict highlights in the Black Hills Passion Play
as staged in the great natural amphitheatre at Spearfish, S.D.
Above, Jesus shoulders the Cross as He starts His sad journey
to Golgotha. Behind him is the Roman centurion, \with scourg-

who were crucified with the Saviour, In the center doorway
stands Pontius Pilate, Roman procurator who reluctantly sen-
tenced Jesus to cruxifixion under pressure of the Jerusalem
mob that chose between Christ and the robber Barabbas, The
mob was incited by Caiphas and Annas, priests of the temple,
who stand on the steps behind the Cross, reviling Jesus, At
right are the disciples and the children Christ blessed when He
entered Jerusalem from Galilee.
Christ falls under the weight of the Cross. It was here that
His mother, Mary, met and recognized Hint, crying "My Son,

It was originated in 1242 in Lite -

Joseph Meier, who plays the

Germany and carne to the U.S, in
1933. After years of searching,
Meier found an ideal haven in
Spearfish. His principal players
then were descendants of the peas•

Like Meier, they became American
citizens. Meier has acted In the
Passion story since childhood. Ile

Turned on the maple sap;
Then went back to bed again
And took an extra nap.
When the place had thawed,

Let out the pussy -willows,
Then swept the doorstep wide,
Woke the little crocuses—

Sports — And One Thing or Another
So the great hockey "scandal"
turned out to be more or less of a
dud after all and the type of fan
who is always suspecting the worst
fn connection with sport was probably
disappointed at the tameness of the
"revelations", When the story first
broke there was plenty of whispering
regarding fixed games and big kill-
ings by the gambling gentry, but like
so many such things, there doesn't
seem to have been notch of anything
behind it,
However, it is probably just as well
to have the air cleared, and the
League President is to be congratu-

How to Handle
Nursery Stock
There is a wide range in the price
and quality of shrubs, vines, plants
and other items which come tinder
the general heading of nursery stock,
The real test is whether the stock
will grow quickly and sturdily, If
the roots are dry and the upper
part of the plant shrivelled, brown•
ish and lacking buds, then one can
be quite sure he paid too much, no
platter what the actual price, it will
probably die, or take three or four
years to get really growing.
Healthy stock, on the other hand,
will conte along quickly with hardly
a check, especially if handled care-
fully, Plants, shrubs, vines, etc.,
should be kept cool and moist „nd if
they cannot be planted in their perm-
anent location,tight away they should
be "heeled in", that is temporarily
planted in a trench with the soil
heaped up '?tell above the roots.
\hien replanting it is advisable to
supply plenty of water and keep w'at.
ered for the first few weeks. Plant.
ing is best i ne in the cool of the
evening or on (1u11 days, and sotne
shade from hot sun is advisable
with tiny things.
Are They Suitable Here?
In the magazines and newspaper's
one reads of lots of beautiful flow-
ers, shrubs and even vegetables that
may not grov, well in many parts
of Canada These things were devel-
oped fot the Southern States or
England where the climate is milder
or the growing season longer.
One wastes money, time and work
In .trying thein here. Our climate,
soli' and other conditions are not
suitable, jttst as their conditions do
not suit certain things that thrive
abundantly here, To guard against
the. discouraging efforts to produce
these tender plants here one is ad-
vised to stick to those flowers, shrubs
and vegetables that are especially
recomtnended for Canadian condi.
Orals. The latter ate the varieties and
types listed in the Canadian seed
c'atalcgttes, These have all been
tested under Canadian conditions and
they are the only ones recommended
by the Canadian authorities.

deserve too much sympathy, The
funny thing about it is that he didn't
even win his now -famous wager on
the Black Hawks; and losing five
hundred dollars and then getting tos-
sed out on his car into the bargain
makes it took like a pretty expensive
evening for Mr, Taylor, Anyway,
he was a grand hockey player when
he was right, although he didn't ap•
pear—from where we sit—to have
more than about one more season of
top -class hockey left itt idol if that is
any consolation,
* * *
Seeing Gene Tunney in Toronto a
week or so ago recalls the fact that
there was one grand fighter who,
somehow' of -tither, missed the pope•
larity,bis ability deserved. Boxing
fans are a queer mob, and they
couldn't go for Gene talking about
Shakespeare and Bernard Shaw, and
actually, admitting that he occasionally
read books.
* * *
However, he cleaned up a tidy
fortune and got out when the going
was good. Asked what he thought of
the coming i.ouis-\Walcott affair,
Turney scented to think that the
champion would flatten Jersey Joe
without too touch trouble, which
seems to be the general opinion of
those who should know about such
things, Tunney came to Canada to
help the Ontario Society for Crippled
Children in its drive for funds—
which is something that deserves
the generous support of everybody.

Latest to threaten a ring conte -
back is ;\ fax Schuleling; and if the
boxing people have any sense they
should squelch any such ideas with-
out a moment's delay. A tnan verg-
ing the 45 year mark just hasn't any,
business in a ring; and with boxing
in a bad way ail over the neap, what

All About Nothing
Counsel was cross-examining a
witness in an important case, Ile
asked; "And on June 11th you say
you called on Mrs. Murphy. Now
what did she say—?"
"I object to that question, my
lord," interrupted the opposing
counsel.
Then ensued an hour's fierce
argument between counsel, and in
the end the judge allowed the clues.
tioti,
"And as I was saying," continued
counsel, "you called o11 Mrs. Mur'
pity, Nowt hat did she say?"
"Nothing — she was out," was
the reply.

to answer for too. nut personally e
would be inclined to say that weak'
minded refereeing is mainly re-
sponsible,
* * *
With a Blob of wild-eyed ring-
siders shrieking for a knockout, it
takes real nerve for a referee to stop
a bout when one of the fighters is
badly battered—and officials with
that sort of courage arc very few and
far between indeed. In recent years
"The Manly Art of Self Defence
has developed into a pretty rotten
racket, and if they were to do away
with the whole smelly Bless we—for
one—wouldn't be inclined to shed
too many fritter tears.

There] ai;ts:- a time when we tried
to flatlrh'' Our self-esteetn by saying
that we went to fights because we
admired: fast footwork and skilful
boxing; But we know better than
that now. Like' ninety nine out of
every hundred fight fans it's the
prospect of the "kill" which gets us;
and the memory of Jack Dempsey
battering somebody like Willard to
tlie-canvas time after time will prob-
ably remain itt our memory after
we've forgotten the cleverest boxer
we ever laid eyes upon,
* * *
Sure sign of Spring is the annual
stnoking up of the Kentucky Derby—
the great "classic" abort which there
is probably more nonsense written
than any other sports event. And if
the Calumet Farm's "Citation" is
anything like as good as is claimed,
it would appear to be all over but
the shouting, Coupled with "Be-
witch"—if she starts—"Citation" will
likely be one of the shortest -priced
favorites ever to go to the post, and
it wouldn't be surprising to see them
finish one-two.
* * *
And if "Bewitch" should happen to
get down in front, it will mark only
the second time a filly has won the
Derby in all its lengthy history, "Re-
gret" was the name of the little lady
who turned the trick and that was
away back in 1915. There will be
one Canadian -owned starter—E, P.
Taylor's "Jacopct" bttt we imagine
alt he's likely to get out of it is a
few minutes of healthy exercise.
