Barry is be• Mended by Judge Blue and his daughter, Lucy. The Judge turns out to be a friend of Laredo's and a bad actor. Barry escapes, how- ever, and meets an old man named Timberline, who also is gunning for the Laredo Kid. After several years of searching, Barry returns to Judge Blue's house, where he meets a man called Tom Haveril whom he accuses of being his aces, in, Jesse, in disguise. Barry be- comes convinced of this later and they have a gun battle, both get- ting hurt. Recovered, Barry discov. ers Tom Haveril has married Lucy whore he loves, Barry, the night they are married, kidnaps Lucy, and tells her he loves her. Judge Blue is not her father, he tells her, and Tom Haveril is the Laredo Kid, On the way to Barry's hideout, Lar- edo's men capture Barry. Lucy plays up to Laredo's foreman, Jake • Goodby. Lucy said quickly, "What •do you 'suppose it is that they have hidden out here, 'Sarboe and Barry klay- eril, that Tom is so anxious to get?" "I didn't know that part of it," said Jake. "Well, shucks, it don't make no difference, to us, does at, Lucy?" "I'd .like to know. Wonldn't you like to know, Jake? Before Tom gets here?" Jake laughed,. "You ou little• devil you, Lucy!" 'I think I can find out some- thing, Jake! I already have an ink- ling. But we'll have to hurry. Let's see. You call your cowboy back over here where he can't hear. Let me have five minutes—I'll bet you, ,Take Goodby, that I can fiucl out! " "But you look a -here," he began. "Ob, they can't hurt. me!" cried Lucy, jumping up. She laughed and clapped her hands clown on the beet of Barry's gun. "They're tied up, and look at me wearing this!" She called the weapon to his at- tention in haste, rather than have him begin to think about it later. "Well," said Jake slowly, "it won't do any harm for you to find out what you can. I'll bet they don't open their traps. But go 'head." "Hey there, Bunce!" called Sake. "Conte here." Bunce grunted and got up. "Squat, Bunce. We'll chin. Mass I..ucy's steppin' over to ride herd on them two hombres a minute or two." • "I'm Trying To Help" Barry watched her wonderingly. She came on until she stood over Stim,�looking down into his upturn- ed face. At first she mast say some- thing for Jake Goodby to hear. His suspicions might wake at any moment, She fouud it easiest of all to laugh. "So it's funny, -Is it?" said Barry savagely. "You. were so stupid," cried out the girl, still laughing. Then she grew suddenly still, then said in a queer stiff sort of voice, .Tom Haveril will be here soon, Mr. Barry Haveril--or is Laredo the name? And when he comes—" "When he comes?" said Barry, and pulled his legs • up uudei' hint, as though to ease cramped mus- oies. Lucy stepped a little closer. She was just shaping her lips to whis- per hurriedly: "Barry, I'm trying to help you!" But she didn't whis- per a syllable. There was no time. Haveril came up standing like a snake coming out of a coil. The two strong hands she thought so secure - 1$ tied behind him flashed out and naught her up, Winging her clear from the ground. At a single bound he was around behind the big rock, and she was huddled at his feet. At the same instant she saw Sarboe surge sideways and launch himself along the ground oe hands wasia GS STAMPS oate sit Oil ISSUE 50--240 D and knees, so that now he and Barry Haver!' and herself were all behind the boulder, And Barry, armed again, was roaring like an angry bell, • "I'll Kill You Both" "Jake Goodiby!

The two men got slowly to their feet and put their arms straight up, "Step this way, you two," he commanded shadily, "And better not try any funny business." Bunce startel forward, then stop- ped to glance sideways at Good - by, Jake had not moved, ;Bunce started again; this time Goodby came fumblingly along. Barry, watching him narrowly, saw him stumble slightly. Almost too swiftly for the eye to follow his movement. the next minute he sprang nimbly to one side, snapped out his gun, and started shooting over Bunce's shoulder, Bence yelled out in rage and ter- ror, theu jerked out his gun and started blazing away at all that he could see of the mall belri}lel the boulder. But poor Bence never had a chance; Barry's first answering shot broke a leg for him and he fell lurebiugly. Jake fired again, but his aim was disturbed and his shot went wild. He was letting the third shot off when he, like Dunce, went down, shot through the body. Goodby stirred slightly, then lay still again. Barry came forward, gathered up both men's weapon, then asked curtly of Bunce, "Where are you hurt?" "I got it in the leg," groaners the cowboy. "Let Me Got" Barry called to Sarboe; "Come along here, Sarboe, And bring sirs. Tom Haveril with you." So Sarboe name and Lucy with bum, one of her wrists clenched tight in his hand, her face white, her eyes looking enormous and brilliant in the firelight. "Is he dead?" she whispered, looking down on Jake Goodby. "If lte, is, he asked for it," snap- ped Barry. "I'm going far the hors- es," he said and hurried off, merely adding over his shoalder, "Watch both of 'em Sarboe; and don't turn that girl loose." Bari'y returned hurriedly with the horses, his. and Sarboe's and the one that Lucy had ridden here, the Judge's. Also he brought some- thing else, but they did not see it, the fiat steel box which he had unearthed from its hitting place and tied to his saddle strings. "You are not going to take me with you!" cried Lucy as soan as she saw her horse, and began strug- gling with Sarboe. "Barry Haveril, you have no right!" "'I don't know what to do with yon," he said heavily, star'iug at her. "Then ` let me go! 011, please. Barry!" ( Continued Next Week) Children To Come Here By Thousand Movement of British War Guests Starts When Atlantic Storm Season Over, Says Of- ficial — 24,000 Are Lined Up A flood of British war guest elan- wren running into the thousands will arrive iu Canada when the Atlantic winter storms are past. This is the "confident" expec- tation of R. Keith Jepson, British representative in Canada of the, Children's Overseas Reception board. "The whole program is really a phase of the war at sea." he said in a recent address at Toronto. "Last spring, we planned to send thousands of children in fast'ms- senger liners. Then France full. Italy came iota the war, and no destroyers could he dispatched to convoy the fast liners. So we were forced to fall -back on the smaller, slower passenger ships in the reg- ular convoys. 10,000 - 15,000 HOMES READY Only 1,500 children have been brought to Canada under the gov- ernment scheme, 600 of them to Otnario, he said, and official Cana- dian estimates give from 10,000 to 15,000 as the number or possible • foster homes here. lis Within. 410 have 21,000 lined up and waiting as well as a quay ter of a million application,. so that once the transportation ;mob - lens is solo ell there is no reason 55hy any Canadian Morrie that wants a child should be disappointed," 11e declared, Mrntholatnm cquicllly soothes injury and pro- motes henitng.

"We no longer believe in forc- ing young children to practice hateful scales for hours oh end. Nor do we expect diem to spend perfectly good afternoons listen- ing to heavy concerts. Instead, we lead them to an appreciation of music by natural, easy stages. "Isere in this school—and in unary others—we 'first train the child to know melody and rhy- thin." Mrs. Mannes advises musical - minded parents: "Above all, don't make child- ren listen to symphony records. A symphony is a complicated oc- cupation."

Courtesies With Christmas Cards if They're a Burden To You Each Year, You May Be Sending Too Many 11 sending Christmas cards is a burden, perhaps you're sending too many, says a writer on "Common Courtesy." Atter all Christmas cards should be limited to greet- ings for friends. How you sign your name is up to you. To your closest friends, you may want to sign your nick -name. Husbands and wives, usually sign their names "Mary and Joe Baker." It is correct to sign "Mary and Joe" for greetings to intimate friends. LIMIT THEM TO FRIENDS More formal engraved cards, es- pecially those for acquaintances and business associates, may have formally engraved names: "Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Stanley Baker." That goes for bachelor boys and girls, too. When you receive unexpected cards, be gracious in thanking the senders—not apologize for failing to send them one. Wives Work Hard In New Zealand In a recently conducted stand- ard of living survey it was found that nearly 38 per cent of farm- ers' wives of New Zealand work on. the land for periods varying from two to 81 hours a week. it was mostly wives of share -milkers (men who milk the owners' herd in return for a share of the pro- fits), who spent long hours in farm work. Many farmers stat- ed their wives preferred to work on the farm and receive the ex- tra money instead of paying the ruling high wages to a farm- hand. FAMOUS - FOR "fLAVOUI. Sal Clown Brand daily.

Claimed There Is Nothing Re- prehensible About These In- sects A Mr. 1,. C. Pettit. a New Eng- land ngland eritoniologist., fears that he is unpopular with his friends because he has been devoting himself to a study of roaches, says the Provi- dence (R.I.) Evening Bulletin. He asserts that there is nothing repre- hensible about roaches and that the prevailiug prejudice against them is unreasonable. He thinks the roach might well be regarded as a friendly insect, asking of hu- manity nothing more than a hide- away under the sink and a chance to perform areal domestic service by eating up stray crumbs. FULL NAME "COCKROACH" Mr. Pettit tries to soften the pre- judice of his acquaintance by dis- guising the roach under the scien- tific cientific name, Blattelia germanica; but that subterfuge will do him no good if he insists on taking his pets about with him. The insect to which he refers should be known by its full name, "cockroach." The shortened name is likely to be mis- taken for the roach which is a European fresh -water fish, seien- tifieally termed rutilus rutilus. Poodles -Hair Suits Cloth made from dogs' hair may soon be available to British tail- ors and dressmakers. This wool can be obtained from several breeds, but the poodle, which can be shorn three or four times a year, is best. Collies, old English sheep dogs, and the Dutch Kees- hond, are also suitable. During 1914-18 some people in Scotland made use of dogs' wool, and there are families who regularly wear it.
