CHAPTER III Natchi accepted rhe statement with a stoic face. He made a gesture that ended the talk, then swung his pony and rode to the bank. He dis- appeared into the shadows. Virginia watched Jim Randall ride back from the stream and knew genuine relief. The atmosphere was thick with danger. She could feel' ft. The men about her were nerve - taut, their faces grim and sober. She heard Jim Randall's clear strong voice giving orders. "We'll camp here tonight. If we move on we'll invite attack. O'Hara, have the men erect breastworks of rocks. Keep the pickets well in. Light no fires. Easy does it." "Yes, sir!" the sergeant's voice rang with confidence. O'Grady was raising Virginia's tent and she watched him, feeling helpless and out of place, a woman in a man's world. She heard some- one step up behind her and knew it was Jim Randall. She turned slowly. His senile lay easily on his lips: his only wariness lay in the nar- rowness of his • eyes. But, too, his voice had lost its banter. ,.

"Score one for you!" he said, and turned away, Mel Scarlett reappeared and this' time squatted down, apart from the others, his back against a .boulder near the tent. He relaxed wholly. his gaunt, roughly -clad person drooping dejectedly. ide glanced at Virginia and smiled. She crossed to him. She asked' hint if his excursions into 'the brush weren't dangerous, and he merely smiled again in an- swer, ?`hen she asked: "What did the Apaches want?" "What did the lieutenant say they wanted?" "1 don't think he said," .Virginia replied. Mel. Scarlett looked up at her. his eyes wistful, She realized suddenly that he was a very old man and the years hadn't been kind to hint. "All T got are my suspicions," he said. "T figure by their tactics that they wanted to rapture Lt. Ran- dall." "Capture hint!" Virginia's voice became a little thin. "'Why should they want to cap- ture hint -especially?" "Natchi, the chief," Scarlett said in his taciturn way, "hates the lieu- tenant. Natchi's son stole horses, Lt. Randall arrested him. I figure Natchi planned to capture the offi- cer and hold him as hostage to force the release of the young buck." Virginia watched Jim Randall while they ate their evening rations, For •the- first tune, she realized, she knew something definite about him.

A Little -Known Corner of France One of the most individual and little-known corners of France is Provence, which sometimes resem- bles Italy, sometimes Palestine, and sometimes looks like like no other place on earth. Provence is mostly dry, scrubby, rocky. arid land, flowerets with endless miles of olive trees and bordered with rows of towering, deep -green cypress • Provence is a triangle of land bordering on the Mediterranean - roughly speaking, between the Ri- viera and the Spanish peninsula. It has a language quite its' own, which is sometimes spoken, some- times sung in folk songs, and some times used on restaurant menus for old times' sake. . The biggest city of Provence, and the most untypical, is Mar- seilles, which is also France's lat'g- est port and second largest city. Big and brawling Marseilles is the plaque tournante for southeastern It'rance. East is the Riviera, south across the sea lie the island of Cor- sica and the cities of North Africa and up the north road are Nimes; Arles, Avignon, and the ruins of bhe empire that was Rome. --From "Foot -loose in France," by Horace cS''trtton.
