CHAPTER VII.
When Jim saw that his prisoner
had sobered, he called a halt and
they swung from the wagon road
into the shade of a clump of cotton-
woods. He eyes Pete Saba grimly.
"All right, Saba -talk."
"I got nothing to say, soldier."
"You're going to prison for a long
time, Saba. You'll get off light 1f
you talk. We know you didn't plan
the holdup -or the ones before it
"There weren't any before it,"
Saba broke in, "This was the first"
"For you maybe. But not for the
masked man who led you. Who ie
be, Saba?"
The outlaw didn't answer. So
Jim said, "You better save yourself
a couple of years. It'll be tong
enough"
Saba's mouth worked. His eyes
were scared. He said finally, his
voice thick, "The other hombre is
named Hank Muldane. The mask-
ed man is named Phil Lawrence."
Jim gave a start. "Are you sure?"
Saba nodded. "I rode up to
Lawrence's cattle spread some
weeks back and asked for a job
punching cows. But he cut me in
on this holdup. He made ft plain
that he was out to get money from
Steve Barron, the gambler over at
Santa Bonita, and nobody else.
That's the way we worked it."
* * *
"How much did you get out of
the holdup?"
"Five hundred dollars. Hanle gut
the same. Lawrence got the other
thousand, After we split, they or-
dered me to ride out of the coun-
try. I sort of got bogged down in
Lannasa."
Jim's face had settled into grim
lines. He said, "Give me what mon-
ey you've got left."
Saba handed over a leather
pouch. Jim opened it and took out
six $10 gold pieces. He eyed the
bandit suspiciously.
"Where'd you cache the rest?"
"That's all I got left, soldier. So
help me. I was drinking heavy, and
a couple of hobres rolled me night
before last"
Jim glanced at Mel Scarlett, and
the old man nodded. They rode
on again, along the dusty wagon
trail that led toward the post.
An hour later, Jim reined in
where the road branched off and
headed south, He regarded Pete
Saha thoughtfully.
"You know where this road leads,
Saha?"
"To Mexico,"
"Ever been there?"
"A couple of times, There's a
senorita in San Carabio. I'm sort
of fond of her."
"Iike to see her again?"
The bandit's eyes glittered. He
didn't speak. Jim took the money
pouch from his pocket and handed
it to Saba.
"Steve Barron wouldn't stoop to
pick up such money," he said.
He took the captured revolver
from his belt, broke it and kicked
the loads from the cylinder. He
handed it to Saba.
"There's one thing more before
you go," he said. "Give me the
cameo pin you took off the woman
passenger."
"I haven't got it now, soldier,'
Saba said. He looked uneasy. "Law-
rettco didn't know I had it until he
caught me looking at It back in
the Sarracca brakes when we made
the split. He was plenty Bore when
he saw it, and he made me hand it
over."
"That's the truth?"
"I swear it, soldier. I wouldn't
lie to you about that."
Jim nodded. He raised his m
and pointed along the south trail.
"See that bayonet cactus? When
you reach that I'nh going to start
shooting. You're an escaped pris-
oner, see?"
Saba swalloyed and nodded.
* * *
"You've got a fast horse," Jim
told him. "Head for Mexico, and
don't ever let me catch you in the
Territory."
Saba swung his horse about, and
galloped away. Dust swirled up
behind him. He reached the distant
stalk of Spanish bayonet then put
his nimble -footed pony into a zig-
zag lope that bounded hint off and
on the trail dizzily. Jim drew his
gun and opened fire. The blasts of
his gun rolled away across the des-
ert, but Pete Saba rode on. When
Jim's glut was silent, Saba lifted
his arm in farewell. Shortly, he was
hidden behind a cloud of dust.
Jim's face was frowning as he
thrust fresh loads into his gun. He
sighed heavily. He felt Mel Scar-
lett's old eyes on him.
"Curious, Scarlett?"
"I. didn't ask any questions, lieu-
tenant.'."
They rode on for a full five miles.
Jim reined in again, and faced the
scout. "I'nh not telling you not to
talk, Mel."
"You don't need to, Jim," said the
old man,
"I guess we understand one an-
other," Jim said. He laughed'bit-
terly. "A man sure makes a fool
of himself over a woman,"
Virginia had already spent four
days in Santa Bonita. At first she
had been eager but patient, expect-
ing Phil Lawrence to appear at any
time. But now, on the morning of
the fifth day, she was gradually
losing hope. It seemed that he
wouldn't come at all.

She decided his 13 -inch curls would
'after the clipping, Byron beamed his
her head, saying, It will take a little
suppose."
Where is the girl in her teens
who hasn't worried her mother to
distraction? Brought up in the
knowledge of correct behavior and
good taste, suddenly she departs
from all her training, and for some-
times a year or more she seems a
stranger to her family.
She is pert to her parents, even
Impudent. She "knows what she's
doing, and can take care of herself."
She dates new boy friends, and
doesn't bring them home to meet
her family. She stays .out until mid-
night, doesn't think to telephone,
and says her mother is "crazy"
to worry.
Her new independence is reflec-
ted in many ways. She uses heavy
makeup, and dark nail -polish. She
overdresses for all ocassions. Her
hairdo is extreme, and her hats
(when she'll wear any) are almost
grotesque.
She is making a spectacle of her-
self, and her parents are usually
helpless to do anything about it.
Her mother and father discuss
her endlessly. Fathers are apt to
advise more discipline. Mothers are
wiser; they fear that would drive
her further from them. What these
two suffer during this period, only
other parents know.
Often this change is due to new
and wrong associations. Feeling
older than she is, the girl apes the.
dregs and deportment of other stu-
dents in her school who have not
had the same careful hone influ-
ences. She sees how popular they
are (with the wrong kind of boys)
and in her ignorance she hopes
for the same desired result. For
a while, she does attract these les-
ser lade, and this is when she pre-
sents such a problem.
Her parents can, sometimes,
sway her from these associations
by entertaining daughters and sons
of their own friends -girls and boys
she used to know, but now ignore.
A year or so iri the teen ages make
a great difference in a girl's tastes,
and meeting them again she can
114IRST
discover common interests which
will atraet her to them.
Parents also can make a point
of inviting her new acquaintances
to a party at home. The way they
behave, against the background of
her family, can make her see them
tie the undesirable, people they are.
I've known many a girl whose
eyes opened so, and who there-
after avoided them of her own
accord.
Families cannot get far with a
girl of this age by any argument.
If they provide other entertain-
ment for her, she usually responds.
It is not always easy to do, but
many an imaginative parent has
accomplished it.
* TO "A MOTHER": Your girl
* will outgrow these unfortunate
* traits. Blood will tell, you know.
* During this trying period, try
* to keep her close to you. Praise
* her when you can, let her know
* how much you love her. Make
* her feel important at home, and
* ask her opinion on all family
* matters.
* Take her to a good beauty sal-
* on.. There she will learn, through
* tactful operators, how to apply
* simple makeup and a new hairdo
* suitable to her age. She will ac-
* sept these opinions, where just
* now she scorns yours.
* Don't despair. Believe in her
* goodness, and let her know you
? do. That will help most of all.
It is useless to tell parents to
stop worrying about their way-
ward children. rt does ease the
problenm"to tell some experienced
person about it. Anne Hirst will
help, if you write her at Box 1,

"That's Too Much"
A I3aby Austin driven ran out of
gas on a country road. Along s.,e..
a- Cadillac, Its driver offered the'
stranger a tow to the nearest eta- •
tion. They were spinning along at
50 miles an hour when the Austinite •
spotted a cop behind them. He
honked his horn in warning
The big car driver sized up the
situation, increased his speed to 80
to give the -cop the slip . with
the Austin man honking again, this
time in terrified supplication to slow,--
down. Finally the cop did give up, ,
strode into the station, stripped off
his badge and gun. "I'nh through"
he announced. "I've seen every-
thing. I might expect to be outrun
by a Cadillac, but when there's an
Austin behind him giving him the
horn, that's too much.".
