Wallace orders all farmers to meet at Steve Ransom's, They then will set out to capture Bartle and El Cabellero Rojo. Chapter XLVIII Haskell did not follow Juanita. "Reckon I'll ride on to the Maxon place, Luke," he said. "The men will be there with nobody to take charge." "Yeah," Wallace agreed. "You and 'tint go on. 1'11 bring the papers and things pronto. Keep everybody clear of the Maxon place till I get there. \Ve don't want to scare those two buzzards away before we're ready to jump 'em." Juanita did not worry about the two ranchers who galloped away to- ward the Maxon place. Michael Valdez ntu:t be gone from the farm by note.

Had not that blind man, his father, at the Corpus Christi Mission told her to follow her heart? * * * Russ Bartle had little appetite for hard work. On his farm men work- ed for him, as they did elsewhere. And now he was discovering that it was much easier to stake ledger entries than it was to change horse- shoes. IIe did succeed in getting off those which branded him as a kil- ler, buried them under the dirt floor of the small blacksmith shop, and gave no thanks to the unknown Mexican who had discovered the telltale prints. But to put on new shoes Was not to his liking. Bartle Hopped the sweat from his face and went to the farmhouse to get Chet Maxon to finish the job. But Maxon was not eager to grasp the opportunity. "\Vhy didn't Clark help you:" he demanded. "You two acted like old - friends." "He was in a hurry," Bartle said, "He's gone to town. And I'm not feeling so good. Iffy heart ... I'll give you five dollars to finish the job for me." "1 don't want your money." snap- ped Maxon. "I'd put four shoes on you for nothing, if I could stand to look at your ugly face." Bartle looked his surprise. "Why, what have 1 done to make you so proddy at me?" he asked mildly'. "You fell right in with Clark, for one thing," Maxon said defiantly. "And that rat's about your kind, I reckon. You also seemed to think that I ought to go gunning for El Caballero Rojo. He's an outlaw, I'll admit, but I'm also betting that worse men have lived in the shelter of the law, pulling wool over other people's eyes." Bartle eyed Maxon sharply. "Just what have you been hear- ing since you've been here, any- how?" he asked nervously. "Nothing much. •Except about El Caballero Rojo and the trouble he's broken up wherever he's gone. Some sten, they say, would never have met up with man-sized justice if lie hadn't served it out. Maybe he'll do as good a job here—and it looks as if it's needed." The landowner did not speak, IIe paced the kitchen anxiously for s while, His continued pres"race here puzzled Maxon. There was one way to get rid of the unwelcome guest, Chet Maxon considered. Put the shoes on his horse. This Maxon suddenly volun- teered to do. He went out on the job at once, and in a short time he returned to the house. "Done," he announced. "You're ready to ride now." Bartle ignored the hint. kris fears were riding him hard. I -lad he owned less real estate and had less rash in the bank where it could not be touched until morning, he might have rusher) out and ridden away, never to return to Gold Creek. IIe paced the floor faster, glancing out of the window, await- ing the arrival of Clark Weber, whom he feared as much now as he did the man who wore the scarlet neckerchief, * * * "Why dotet you go?" Ellen at last turned around and said bluntly. "I thought you just wanted to have your horse's shoes changed:' "I've decided to wait for Weber," Bartle said. Ellen's brows arched and she stepped into Bartle's path. "What are you and he up to?" she demanded, "Weber's bringing me something from town," snapped Bartle, "Something that can be used to squeeze money out of somebody?" Maxon demanded. "There's some kind of dirty deal on, and I won't have it settled here. So you can get out.' Still the landowner made no move, "If anything happens here, *Al be blamed, Chetl" Ellen acid to ber brother, low -voiced. "I'moin g g for the sheriff," She grabbed a coat and flashed out the door. (TO Be 'dontlntted) YOUR TING Y0111 Alex S. Arnott. Dear Mr. Arnott: Jane Wyman's handwriting, which appeared in your column some time ago, inter- ests Inc. Would you tell us more about this hand- writing through a further analy- sis of the script. T h e appear- ance of the writ- ing is Targe and generous and those who write like this are usually very liberal and broad- minded. This feature is confirmed by the broad uprising final to the letter "n" iu the word "Wy- man". The letters "m" and '11' are un- usual as they are not rounded at the top but finished to a point, a good sign of an investigative nature. Sincerity of purpose, high ideals, and real frictulliness are shown in the strokes above the writing Zine. Depth of writing has a special meaning and Miss \Vymtan's is evi- dence of ability to blend colours effectively. Interest in art is indicated by the graceful, well rounded appearance of the . writing. Adaptability for new conditions makes the writer most suitable for the career she has chosen, that of an actress. .fuy"nr ttrshm„ a "nt,e complete analysis pleas,' send self•eddressed, stamped envelope In Ales S.

It most certainly is; in fact, the ommission of the title "Miss" is a social error. Q. Should a person rise when be- ing toasted at a banquet? A. It is net necessary. Q.

Not necessarily, She would do so for a stranger or an important person, but not to greet one who comes to the office regularly. ... SEW one dress!

She Wanted a Good Dog—Now She Has One—Although she lives in the heart of a big city, where room is scarce and con- ditions crowded, Jean Bradd of Toronto always wanted a good dog—not a dog of tine 17tov" variety but a real one. She saved u;) her money and invested in this German Shepherd—Duke of Barrimor C.D.—when he was but a puppy. Under careful handling and expert training, "The Duke" -still less than two nears old—appears to be on his way to Championship honors. Last year he was a handy winner of a swim ming event for dogs at the Canadian National Exhibition. While Miss Bradd is at work in the office where she is employed the dog stays in Iter roost ; but when working hours are over he is always at her side. This exclusive picture was taken at the Unionville Dog Show last month. L NNE RI`ST ecu F lze&t —y BEI Vit; a father is not a weekend job. It is a daily duty which no good father neglects. It is fine to spend Saturdays a n d Sundays with the youngsters; b tt t every responsible father sets aside a little time each evening to get to know his family, to listen to their little, troubles, to reassure them of his in'e:,st and afeetion.

Barclay Warren B'ezaleel: The Craftsman Exodus 31:1.11; II Chronicles 1:5. Golden Text: Whosoever thy hand lindrth to do, do it with thy Wright. Ecclesiastes 9:t0. Today we study of Bezaleel, a craftsman who was filled with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in un- derstanding, and in knowledge and in all manner of workmanship. IIe attd his fellow worlcers constructed the tabernacle, including the ark, altars, candlestick, laver, and the garments 'for the priests, Later when Solomon built the temple all that had been in the tabernacle was transferred. Bezaleel recognized that the abil- ity to do this fine work was a gift from God, He did the work not merely for money but as an expres- sion of his devotion, Ile was not just sawing boards, or matting a liv- ing; he was building a tabernacle for God. This gave hint heart and purpose for the work. Nothing would do more to smooth out difficulties in the ranks of labor today than a gaining of Bezaleel's attitude, If our task is a worthy one we ,,re contributing to the welfare of our family, the nation and the world' Let us do it as <unto the Ltd Labor laws can help to regulate conditions so as to make for better relations. But the deepest problem may be untouched. What we need is a revival of pure and undefiled religion, that then of all nations in life will recognize their stewardship of talent and responsibility to God and fellowmen.

PLAYTHINGS Behold the child, by Nature's kind- ly law, Pleased with a rattle, tickled by a straw; Some livelier plaything gives his youth delight, A little louder, but as empty quite; Scarfs, garters, gold, amuse Itis rip- er stage, And beads and prayer -books are the toys of age; Pleased with his bauble still, as that before; Till tired he sleeps, and life's poor play is o'er.
