Rahway there they are stopped by Attaches, apparently bent en mischief, CHAPTER III Jim Randall surveyed his position with challenging eyes. It wasn't pleasant. His force was bottled up fn a small clearing. The terrain was rough, Trees and brush and rocks formed dense walls which could have concealed a thousand Apaches. He didn't like it. His mind was uneasy. He had the officer's fear of leading his command into a trap. Jim watched the Apache warrior pause at the water's edge and sig- nal with his lance. He gate a o1"t when he saw the second Indies' ride from cover. There was someth about this warrior that marked him. He sat on his droopy pinto pony with a definite dignity, a fine figure of a man. His wase was dark and impassive and intelligent. Scarlett at his side muttered in awe, "Natchil" Jim felt a quiver of excitement run over his muscles. Natchil Natchi himself! Leader of a marauding hand that had cut a bloody, fiery trail through southern Arizona and New Mexico and down into north- ern Mexico. Head of a raider band which had eluded the army with the ease of a phantom cavalcade, The two warriors rode out into midstream and halted before the whrtemen, Hatch; was in his prime; his body lithe and muscular. He was naked to breech -clout and moc- casins and cartridge bandolier across his chest. A head -band held back his jet-black hair. His face looked east in bronze, an impassive mask. Ieewas one of character, the char- #leter of treachery and savagery, ISSUE 22 - 1949 fry Menagerie -0) Watt Disney P -osk .12 "I warned you -always eat from the OUTSIDE ing" Mel Scarlett talked guttural Apache, -using sign language, too. Natchi answered, his voice throaty and gripping. The scout interpreted. "lie says you, the man with the blue -eyes, arrested his son Bunato. You hid him away in the' white man's -fort." "Tell him," Jim said, "Bunato stole white -man's horses and must be punished." It was while Scarlett interpreted that the third warrior appeared and silently joined them. The Apache chief talked Long, and before he had finished the fourth Indian rode from cover and entered the stream. When Natchi's voice stopped, Scar- lett said: b k k "He wants to know how his son will be punished. Lieutenant." Then, his voice uneasy: "I don't like this, sir. They're up to some- thing. Four against us now, and here comes another. Looks like a trap. Did you notice those rifles?" Jim Randall nodded. "All sharps. And brand-new. Plenty of car- tridges too. It's trouble all right." The fifth warrior had appeared and was easing toward_thetn. The two white Hien betrayed no sign that they noticed the ruse. But the situation was danger -filled. Jim said: "Ask him if he sees that soldier kneeling behind that fallen tree." The answer came quickly. Scar- lett interpreted, "He says he does, Lieutenant" "Good. Tell him that soldier is a sharpshooter. Tell hint he has his rifle trained on the space between the eyes of Natchi. Tell him if one more warrior comes to the stream, the soldier will shoot" Natchi's face remained express sionless as he heard the interpre- tation, He studied the officer's face with smoldering eyes. Then be made a sign. His warriors turned their horses and rode from the wa- ter, then on into the screening brush. Natchi remained alone. Scarlett said, "He says the mans with the blue eyes is a fox," "Tell hint Natchi is a wolf. Tell hien his son must go to prison until the second winter ends. Tell him it is bad medicine for an Apache back to steal white tnrn's horses." Natchi's face grew Bard and cruel as Scarlett spoke, and his voice was bitter when Ie answered, The scout interpreted, "He says the white man's law is not for the Apache. And that the man with blue eyes should know that the wolf is stronger thsss'em fox." "Ask him where he got those rifles." Scarlett obeyed. Then said, "He won't tell, sir. But he says he has many such rifles -mors than you have." "Tell !tint my soldiers ,hoot straight and East," Jim said. (Continued Next Week) CROSSWORD PUZZLE AoaOSS 3, Mtnbellished A. Second team 6.

From the time the first of your "garden truck" is ready to use right up until you've picked the very last string bean you have the makings of wonderful plank and platter dishes. * * * Such a dish is practically a whole meal -meat, vegetables and mash- ed potatoes -all cooked together on an oak plank or oven platter. Oven time is short and hot -375F or 400F usually; so it's best to- choose meats that cook quickly, such as steaks, iamb chops, hath, weiners or fish. The planks are 10 by 14 inch ovals, an inch thick, and you can buy them in department or hard- ware stores. But if you have a nice block of oak around your place, your husband or son can smooth it with steel wool and make your plank for you. Ask him to make a scooped -out place at one end with three grooves leading to it to drain meat drippings. * * * Before using a plank for the first time be sure and brush it with oil or melted, unsalted shorten- ing, and 'warm in a slow oven --the same as you'd pre -heat a new fry- ing pan or waffle iron. After that, the only care it needs is 'washing and drying. * * t Here's one combination that I think you'll like. Arrange lamb chops on the plank, and oil the woo -d around them. (Plank should always be completely covered with food, or well oiled, to prevent charr- ing,) Put its a 375E •oven for 10 minutes, to brown the chops on one side. Meanwhile, cook asparagus in e small amount of boiling water, and pressure -cook potatoes for mashing. (If you haven't a pressure cooker, you'll want to start the potatoes boiling well ahead of putting the meat in the oven, of comae). * * Now turn the chops; border them with asparagus and mashed pota- toes. Return the plank to the oven for 15 minutes. Now put the whole thing on the table and serve, with any» sort 'of sauce or relish you fancy. There are those who claim that it's all imagination to say that "planking" lends a flavor all its own -but I don't think, after you've tried it, that you'll agree with that. * ' * * Here's a cake that can be eaten just "as is," or cut in squares and served with whipped cream. The recipe came to me from a woman out west who's famous for the table she sets. She calls it: MAHOGANY CAKE se 1 cup thick, sour cream 2 cups sugar 4 eggs 2% cups flour - 2 level teaspoons soda 1 ANNE RIPST I When a girl falls its love with a married man, she is a pathetic creature indeed. She swallows every statement lie makes about his wife. She pictures him as the mar- tyr in a marriage where he is al- ways "misunderstood." She feels complimented that he chooses her for his confis dente, and draws her own con- clusions - usu- ally, it must be said, to the det- riment of the wife who sits patiently at home. One wife tells her side of the story:: "Your advice to 'WAITING, Anne Hirst, was excellent. Ent as the wife she might have been writ- ing about, I'd like to say this: 1 really feet sorry for the girl. That she is in love with my (?) husband, -I don't doubt. But what she doesn't know is that she is not the first one he has professed to love. Every time he has become in- fatuated with . girl, he has talked of a divorce. Rather than make a. scene, I brush it off with, `Go ahead, if you want to. 'But he has never gone ahead, and probably never will, "Does this girl think that after nearly seven years together, we have nothing but disagreements? It is true we have our troubles. But there have been many, many wonderful days of joy and happi- ness which cannot be overlooked. "We have no children itis true. But she has lcnown us only a year, or she wouldn't have said it was because I didn't want them, I have lost two children, God only knows how it hurt. • "Gide who fall in love with ntar- ried men' only 'ask for heartbreak, They don't eeecn to realize that, if these teen really loved them, they would wait till they were free be- fore telling of their love -not subject them to anxious waiting that may only hamper the girl's chances of finding someone who could offer more than, 'maybe if I get a di- vorce.' This is the other aide of the stogy' -which this girl could have found out if she had been the 'good friend' she claimed to be. "I sincerely hope this will help any girl who lets herself fail in love with a married man, and is left `waiting',. These words should surely make any girl in such a situation stop andwonder. Aside from the ignominy of dat- ing a man wlio has a wife, site should question what sort of man is this who tells her only one side of his story. Who never confesses his other light o' loves, but al- lows her to believe she is the only one in the world who ever appealed to hint. Who has not the slightest intention of divorcing the patient -wife who forgives and forgives and takes him back again and again, with a new hope rising sverytlme in her heart. How foolish are these smotiSnal- creatures-and how evil the men ho tempt theml To "The Wife:" Whether the man involved is your husband or sonic other wronged woman's, your revelation should warn every girl Who thinks a married man is in love with leer She is, as you say, only asking for heartbreak -Thank you warmly for your letter, "What would his wife have to say to me?" That should be the problem of every girl who dates a married man. Anne Hirst's long observations of such sad affairs can be useful.

Foolish question, if there happens to be young -'ups" around the place. - I think they'll go in a big way for what . another noted cook calls: DOUBLE DATERS Wee cups brown sugar 1 cup shortening 34 cup sour milk 1 level teaspoon abda 2 cups oatmeal (ground) 2 cups flour Filling 1 cup. dates 1 cup sugar • 1 cup water Boil filling until thick; cool Mix cooky ingredients in order given (creaming sugar and shorten- ing).
