STORY INTO THE SUNSET By Jackson Gregory SYNOPSIS Barry Haveril leaves his Texas home to see the country, meets a man who has just been shot who turns out to be a cousin of his, Jesse Conroy. When they part, Barry leaves for home and comes across the murdered body of his brother, Robert. Barry starts searching for the murderer and finds a spot to get gold. He goes to Tylersville to get money for it. There he meets Judge Blue and his daughter, Luey, who helps him to get $450 foe his gold. Judge Blue also tells him that a gun Jesse gave him is the gun of a murderer known as the Laredo Kid. The Judge In- vites Barry up to visit him and there Barry meets Jesse, He ac- cuses Jesse of killing his brother and of being the Laredo Kid, Judge Blue comes up behind, knocks Barry unconscious and tells Jesse (Laredo) that Barry knows where there is gold and he's keeping him until he finds out where it is. Barry escapes, however, and as he is rid- ing through the mountains a shot whizzes past his ear. The man who fired the shot explains that he thought Barry was the Laredo Kid and that he had pledged himself to killing the Kld. Barry and his new acquaintance, Timberline, become friends. Barry leaves ,him in his search for Laredo and finally goes to Red Rock where, going through a valley, he sees three men attempt- ing to capture a beautiful girl, Barry rescues her, finds where she lives and then heads for a nearby cabin in which he formerly lived. There he finds Timberline occupy- ing the cabin. e 8• e CHAPTER Xi '•Yule're always trackin' me down, ain't you?" said Timberline. "Whose cabin is this, anyhow?" demanded Barry. 'Mina. I found it. The man that made it must have left the .come try. There ain't been nobody livin' in it for more'n a year; yuh c'n tell by the way the brush has grow - ed up. What 3'uh laughin' at, ITy- ena?" Barry sat up and felt glad that he hadn't come back to a deserted cabin. It was good to see olcl Tim- ber again. He said: "I reckon we've got to be pard - neve whether we like it or not." ' Tomol",ow morning, 1'11 show yon where the gold is." "It don't happen to be back to- wards Iced Rock, do it?" "Yes. Wire?" "That's lucky," said Timber. "Yub got to go to Red Rock: anyhow to- morrow. That is, onless—Yule didn't happen to see hoe today, did you?" "Who?" said Barry. "A real purty girl. Name of Lucy," said Timberline, "Got to know her purty good when I come through. She's had a sort of come- down in life since yuh seen her last. Look in at the Gold Nugget lunch counter. Yuh'l1 find Mier there." They turned in early that night, turned out early in the morning. Barry thought, "Strange how things work out," Today he would see Lucy—but yesterday he had seen that other girl. Barry, feeling queer about it ale, rode on into Red Rock, looking for the Golcl Nugget lunch counter. Lucy. behind the counter, was cutting an ample pie when he came in. He stood there and stared. Luey! Not Lucy Blue at all, his little sister Lucy! "Barry!" she cried, and dropped pie and knife. and came running into his arms. Her husband, Zachary Blount, was dead of pneumonia. She had tried so hard not to be glad! For he bad been a brute, and she had found him to be as crooked as a stake -and -rider fence. "I found out so many thing's," said Lucy in a hushed voice, both Iter little hands hugging one of Barry's big brown tines. „Judge Blue—the is a terrible man, Barry, Nobody knows it; everyone thinks he's grand. But he is the worst man in the world." VtnNieriVATI Wx' ' ' S STAMPS 04 r They chattered for halt an hour and didn't get said half the things they wanted to say. Barry rode back to see Timberline at the creek, promising to return the next day. Arrived at the creek he found Tim'berline's two companions, "Zook here, Timber," he said sob- erly, "We're' pardners, But I don't know ni much about gold mining as a pig knows about a fiddle, and while you're a ratan who ought to know it all, all you do is jump around like a -grasshopper in a hot skillet. Let's go gat us A. third parci- ller, coma man that knows about ]making a arsine pay.' The Other Lucy ,',Shore," he said, mollified with never another word from Barry. "Shore, Sundown. Don't I know it? They's a young squirt name of Nlaroh, Ken March, son of of Big Moments March, an' ho knows sas- safras from gumbo anyhow. He',s a ininin' engineer, born o' minin' daddy an' grandad, an' he's in town. I'll go git him," "Grease the trail and slide," said Barry. Timberline slid. Barry opened his roll, got ott his razor and went briskly to work on the stubble on his face. He washed at the creek; he had an extra shirt and put it on. He stepped his horse near the barn. A. voice said, "Lookin' tor somebody. stranger?" Barry didn't turn. He just said crisply, "Whose place is this?" "Judge Blue's, o' course," said tine stable hand. "'Pherers a girl lives Barry. "Who is she?" "Why, Miss Lucy, o' course!" "Judge at home?" asked. Barry, and ways glad to ),e•ceive a prompt "No," in answer, So he asked next: 'Miss Lucy? She's here, though?" Yes, Miss Lucy was there. Barry left his horse at the stable amen walked on to the house. Then he heard a man speaking. and Barry stiffened to a dead stop. The man in there was making love to a pretty girl, and sounded in dead earnest—'and there was not a doubt in Barry Haveril's mind that .at last he lead come up with Cousin Jesse, the long sought Lar- edo Kid. Barry didn't even think of stop- ping to knock at a closed door. He simply threw it open and burst in 'upon the two people in the big living room.. The two sprang apart. Barry, his eyes blazing, cried hotly: "Got you, Laredo! Yon—" He broke short off, and the hand that had slid down to his gun rest- ed there, fingers gripping but mak- ing no move to draw the weapon. I?e stared at the man facing him and fell into utter confusion. He had been so sure of Jesse Conroy's voice — but was this Cousin Jesse? The girl, flushed and indignant, broke th.e brief electrical silence. "What do you mean by this sort of thing?" she demanded hotly. 'What right have you to break into our house like this?" Barry said, looking not at her at all, but steadily at her com- panion: "You are Jesse Conroy." The other laughed in his face, yet his eyes remained as watchful as a hawk's. Also his ungauntleted right hand, like Barry's, was on his hand. He said drawlingly: "Just now you called me another name. Laredo Kid, wasn't it? Sup- pose you make up your mind." "You are Jesse Conroy," said Barry. "You're the Laredo Kid."

Brushing takes up too many of the precious mo- ments but give it as much as you can. Use a good brilliantine if - your hair is dry, and do make up your mind that you must use a fiat -class hair tonic. Dcn't go in for 'elaborate hair styles, The long bob is the easi- est to manage and you can al- ways push it into a snood and look tidy. When it comes to the home shampoo, whihc lots of us indulge in today, remember to choose one suited to your type of hair. Be sure you rinse your hair enough — that is where most of us trip up when we resort to home methods. Spray with set- ting lotion if you have greasy hair, use only water if you have dry hair, and pin into waves; dry in the sun, if you can. Dr. Karl S. Bernhardt, a lead- ing child psychologist and chair- man of that branch of the Brit- ish Overseas Children's Commit- tee at the University of Toronto, said in a recent interview that the social implications involved ie nixing children from the Brit- ish Isles and Canada will turn out for the best. The children will be better fot mixing with each other, he be- lieves. "Parents need to exercise much more thought and to have much more advice. • Foster parents will, no doubt, run into many diffi- c'alties and in order to give them help we propose to provide Oas- es for them here in the institutte. "I believe the evacuee move - merit Will snake for sort of lea- vening in ,Toronto. I think it will teach Calntdian parents that it is not wise to keep their children as closely tied to their apron strings as many of them do. I think that both. the Canadian and En- glish glish children will be better touucled-out individuals as a • re- stilt of their associations." 0 Nei'v -rus Tension Neeis s R.ecreation1 Change From Normal Rou- tine Helps — Keep Feet On Floor Keep your feet on the floor and don't grit your teeth if you want to escape nervous tension.' An issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association recommended elimination of "en- ergy sapping" notions, monot- ony and immobility as the best means to avoid nervous tensio.l, a product of civilization. Pecreaition should provide a change from normal routine, not merely physical activity, the jour- na. advises. • Eat regularly and not between meals, and relax competely several tines each day, the journal said.

Rebbeck, vicar of 'Wolv-ettcote, England, writes in his parish magazine that when a bride stands before him at the chancel steps he would like to ask her these questions: 1. Wilt thou promise to cool: the bacon slowly and see that it is not frizzled up to nothing? 2. Canst thou mance an appetizing stew fit for this man to eat? The vicar adds that before banes are publirshed a girl should have a certificate of elementary knowledge of cooking.

The time to begin baby's systematic exercise is about the end et the third month when the eyes have developed so that he can begin to perceive objects. As with adults' exercises, psy- chology holds that the best form OE exercise for the baby is that which centres the interest on some- thing else but the exercise—sone sort of game. FOR STRETCHING A light inflated ball is the toy that will for the longest space of time give the baby the most exer- cise. He is no different from the adult in that either --a ball is the basis of all games, and red is the color—still similar to sound adult custom. Red in movement will fas- cinate any human being and baby is no exception. A. red balloon tied to the baby's wrist will keep its interest up in the jerks and swings of the arms and legs and the body stretching that are the best form of baby's exercise's..
