Barry le befriended- by Judge Blue and his daughter, Lucy. The Judge Invites Barry up to visit him and there Barry meets Jesse. He accuses Jesse of kill- ing his brother and of beingthe, Laredo Kid'. Judge Mae domes up from behind, knocks Barry un- conscious. Barre escapes, how- ever, and meets an old man nam- ed Timberline, who also is gun cling for the Laredo Kid. After several years of searching Barry -returner to Judge Blme's house where he meets a man' called Tom Haveril whom ire accuses of being his, cousin Jessie in' disguise. Barry tells the strangers i'n town that ,hie sister Lucy, who works at a lunch counter in town, can ide1itify him. They search for her but she's missing. Barry, and a new friend of his, Ken March, go looking for her and fund her in a%abin, with Sarboe and two. o't 'er nen, • Tom Hav- eril, the Judge and others then come, after Ken• has, been shot, and hang the mien in ,the cabin. When they leave Barry stays on and finds Sarboe isn't dead but has lost his ability to talk- Tom Hav,ril returns and; Barry and the shoot at each other but neither i,s killed. Rlecovered, Barry meets his sister and Ken M:areh, who tell him that Lucy- Blue ,is about to marry Tom Haveril' Barry rushes to the Blue home to try to stop the marriage. "Have it your way," said the Judge. That puzzled Barry. He said, "What thie deevil do you mean?" "She's married him; already. A good hour ago-" "Marri"ed already?" Barry e stared at him incredulou:slly- The Judge merely nodded and Looked back at him in frank curious interest. "Where 15 she now?" "Gone," the Judge 'said with a flick of malice, "on 'their honey- moon." "Damn. you!" cried Barry. "Certainly," smiled the Judge. Then his voice hardened and at last leis eyes gresv"''v expressive of a purely (murderous anger.. "And now you can get the hell out of here!" Barry shook his 'head. "No, not yet. Pretty soon, Judge. First I am going to tell you something. After that you are going to tell me where they have gone." "I know that you came to Tylers- ville about twelve years ago, and that you were a rich man when you got there." "I know that you came from Lare- do, and that you came on the jump!" The ,fudge's eyes. became mere shadowed slits between narrowed !ids. He didn't make any retort. a "The Laredo Kid ,too came from redo," said Barry coolly- "When -he found you ,.agate at Tylers, he found a gold mine! You have been afraid of aim ever since. And I happen to know why Judge Blue!" "You're a darn;n liar," said the Judge. Barry laughed. "The Kid bas made a ring-tailed baboonout of you. You lost some- thing, didn't you? A flat steel box with alyout five hundred pictures in it! And the pictures nicely wrapped up in an old newspaper, more than a dozen years old now! And you thought, dammed old jackass that you are, that Laredo still bad ail that! Well, he hasn't got it, and he doesn't know where it Le -and you've let hem browbeat you into stealing Lucy!" Slowly as the Judge's jaws bulged, his face whitened - "You'd better spill aLl you know, Kid," he said harshly. "I've got that box and everything "lilt go with you," said the Judge. "He's takien her to his ranch," said the Judge as their two horses jumped under them. "Hielio, who's there?" • Another rider, seeming in haste like .themselves, was bearing down on them,. Olid Timberline's voice piped up: "HI, you fellers! One of you, Barry Haveril?" "I'nl In a hurry,' Timber," said Barry, pulling down reluctantly. "What' wanted?" "Where you gain', Barry? Who's that with you?" "It's Judge Blue. We're aiding over to Tom Haveril's ranch. He has taken Lucy over there." "An' you two was goin' without toe," muttered Timber reproachfully. "Come ahead then" said Beery and again he and! the Judge shook out their reins. Their way /led them through the notch just above Red Rock, along the high ridge and down into the first of several parallel valleys. The Judge led the way and, though Barry was forced to follow, he could find little fault. with the pace that was set. Timberline, doing his best to keep up, began to lag. Wihem they came under the cot- tonwoods in the shade of which the ranch house had been built, the Judge was ahead.He had dismount- ed when Barry carpe up with him. Ale went' up the steps, his spurs jingling, his high boots thumping. He knocked ansi. called' jovially: "Hey, you young folks! It's the Judge, Waging you a wedding pres- ent he ought to have thought of sooner. Open up, Tom, Open, Lucy." Tom; Haveril's voice• rang out sharply, "Who's with you?" "Once of the boys. , He's helping me tote your surprise, Tom." 'Ile door opened only a little; the Judge's bulk thrust it farther back as he ,shoved on in. And close behind him came Barry. Incredibly quick,. Tom •Haveril placed himself behind Lucy. 'I thought so!" he said in cold auger. "You and Barry Haveril, hula?" When. the Judge Iaugbed, "It's nothing, Tom; just a friendly visit," Lucy came near fainting with cold horror, "Tam!" screamed Lucy, "They've come to kill you!" "Sure," said Tom Haveril. "Sure." His gun was h bis hand now, nos- ing past Lucy's waist; his eyes, burning with nage and hate, gleamed over Lucy's curly head. "You cowardly rat!" Barry roared. "Step out like a mean." "No!" screamed Lucy, and threw an arm backward, trying to get it around Tom Haveril, "No, Tom! They'll kill you. They are cow. girds--•" He just laughed, but he remained as watchful as a tiger about to Pounce. "You two come at me in double harness," he said. "That means you've get together about 'vthings., don't. it?" He laughed again, "What be got," said Tom Haveril, "was a lot of pictures and an old Laredo newspaper! I guess he told you .that. Well, that's a loss that might' lose you a nice pot of money, but it wouldn't stretoh your neck, would it? Might lose You the money, I said- but wouldn't if you played along with me! String your chips with Barry Haveril, and where are Yon?" "You started out like you were going to speak quite a piece, Tont. Bogged dowel, though, didn't you? I don't hear anything that makes much sense." "You're, 'listening for it though!" jeerer, Tom Haveril- "Your ears --are widie open, and you're beginning to think already that you came pretty close making a bad mistake! Well, you d•id. Barry got those things - but he didrr"t get the ace I have in the bole- You bet I've still got it. And if you had the bed luck to turn me down tonight - well, it would be just too bad for Judge Parker Blue, formerly of Laredo! You'd hang, just as sure as crab "Tom," screamed Lucy. "They've come to kill you!" in it," snapped Barry. "If you've got that, Barry,'" said the Judge, eyeing him, "I'll give you fifty thousand d'ollars-" "You'd give the shirt off 'your back, damn you! Now, where's Lucy? Where's the man you let her marry?" "I'm going our, and kill him," said Judge Blue. "And I'm going right now." Barry caught him by tbe shoulder. "I'm in a burry, mean! Do you think I want to wait? Look here, Parker Blue; I've got that box and all that's in It; I've got you over a rain barrel,- like Laredo used to shave you! And I say: Where are they now?" apples grow on a crab apple tree." "Yom talk big, Tom Haveril, and ever did," scoffed the Judge, but sonmdiedt uneasy- • "You've got nothing to gain here tonight, Juldige," said Tom Haveril swiftly, "and everything to lose. I might get killed Lucy might get ktl1ed4-•and where would you be?" Right there Barry knee, that Tam Haveril had as good as won the trick. The Judge cleared (his throat. He said gravely, "Heave, le't's talk finis thing over." "Sure," said: Tian Revenll•. "How about it, Couuhi Barry? Want to caill the party off tor thd•s time?" i "I've been leaking for you more than two years, Laredo," said Barry angrlliyi "I've foltho'wgdl you all the way out to Cialifineaka. and back. 'Come into thie , opaie and fight it out-" "On my wedding night?" grinned Tam Haveril. "Let Imre have a hail dozen words alone w it'h Tom Haveril," put in the Judge swiftly. "Well step into the next mom. Ylou can t611 .Lucy wbatiev'er you want to. All right, Tomi?" Without the least hesitation Tom Haveril answered: "Anything you say, Judge. Sure it's all right with i me. Suit you, Sundown?" A look fleshed from Tom HaverjL to Judge Blue. Bam'y read it aright: 1 Tram Haveril was simply making sure that the Judgte would keep out of it; if the Judge nodded ever so slightly, if his guarded eyes said, "Yes," Tom Haveril was hair-trig- ger set to stlart sheeting. He could not have failed to kill Barry, nor could Barry possibly have fired back. . It was just then a bid creaked in the room beyond the kitchen -as a door opened, from beheld Tom Hav- eri,a's back. Barry, fascinated, watched t h e door open; he saw the barrel of a. shotgun thrust into the lamplight ; the saw old Timberline's shrewd eyes squintime along the barrel. "I been listenin' a couple minutes," said Timber acidly. "Seems like it was about time a mean with a ehot- gun stowed up. Am I right, pard- ner?" "If you're wrong no ,man was ever right!" cried Barry. "Now, you listen to me, Tom Haveril!" Tom Haveriil's lean jaws bulged from the strain he set on them, and his eyes glittered feverishly out of a slowly whitening face - "Any main wino stboots is sure to kill Lucy," the said quickly, "Heim, no," said Timberline, and the boards creaked again as he came a step nearer. "I cin shove the. muzzle close up to the back o' your head, s•nugglin' it up, say, under your left 'ear-" "Call beam off, Sundown!" yelled Tom Havenii. "Quick, or I start shooting -anus I'll get you if I die the next minute!" Barry was tempted then to shout to his old friend, "Blow his damn' bread off, Timber!" -But Lucy had spun about and her arms were around 'Pom Haveril, and her two hands were lifted to protect the back of his head. So what Barry said was: "Hied it, Timber! These t w o want a word or two together, Let hhem have it, out in the kitchen! 1(111 the first one that bats an eye. And I'll )nave two words here with Tom Haveril freed himself from Lucy's arms, called, "Come ahead, Judge," dropped his guns to the floor and moved into the kitchen. Timberline backed off slowly, • al- ways keeping him covered. A moment later she and Barry were alone, and Timberline w a e guarding his two prisoners in the. kitchen. She stood with her hands down at her sides, her face lifted defiantly, her eyes blazing into Barry's. "If,• you've got anything to say to me," she said ,hotly, "please say it -,and go!" "Lucy," the pleaded earnestly, "I've dome here just to seve you, can't you see?" She scarcely flicked her eyes scornfullly at him; there was nothing but contempt in her bitter smile. "You've got to believe what I'm goeng to tell yrou! he blurted out, his own temper uncertain. , "1'10 never believe a single word you ever say! If you're waiting for that time to comer Oh, why don't you go!" In •the next room he could hear the Judge and Tom Haveril speaking hurriedly; he could not see them but saw Timberline, his shotgun gripped with hrard competent hands. He thought: "If I could just make her listen to me! If I could tell her the whole thfimg-" He gathered up the weapons which the Judge and Tam Haveril had "shed" at Timberline's• staccato com- mand, and threw hem as far as he could out thrrough the door into the dark.

There is nothing odd about thine -as might be suspect- ed by persons who are, blissfully in- sensitive to the modern dins, most of them unnecessary, that assail the ear in any modern city. Mr. Peabody can laugh over incidents in the strug- gle that he is • carrying on against the noise monster with the aid of some 600 members of the League for Less Noise. The League is incorpor- ated under state laws, is supported entirely by voluntary subscription. It has no camnmercia4 connection, is not financially interested in the sale of any equipment, and has for its. sole •objective the control of unnecessary noise. One of the happiest results of Mr. Peaboody's campaign has been the readiness of the rpolice department to do something about superfluous sound effects in New York- The annual re- port of Lewis J. !Valentine, police oonemassioner, for 1937, contains a chapter entitled Unnicessary Noise, which explains that "the campaign of education in the form of warnings to, reduce needless noises was continued during the year," Warnings were is- sued to 167,069 operators of automo- biles and to 33.230 owners of radios, which were followed by' 9,882 arrests and summonses for the first class, of offenders and 386 for the second class. Other needless noise offences were classified.es peddler, loud and boister- ous, horn•,, animals, worn out machin- ery, ,roller skating, games, taxicabs, delivery of milk„ bicycle siren, miscel- laneous, with a grand total of 292,572 Warnings. There was- an increase in 1938 over 1937 be 32 per cent in the warnings and a' 49 per cent increase in summonses and arrests. Mr. Peabody has given much atten- tion to auto thorns, believing that they need not utter harsh squawks in or- der to serve their purpose of giving necessary warning signals. He did jury service for the police depart- ment once when a fleet of taxi cabs came out with a particularly obnox- ious -horn. Mr, Peabody was chosen foreman of this jury, which agreed after an (hour's aretiment that the bore's sound as m,odific•I with a stuff= ing of mineral wool, would serve its purpcse. All the horns were similar- ly stuffed, but as time went on the horns reverted to their original bar- baric yawps, He .has also served as cansultatlt on a new series of auto signals manu- factured by' one company and reports that the chosen horn's sound is agree- able, striking its (high note at thirty miles an hour, and diminishing in in- tensity as the autmobi!e slows down. This experiment has not reached ,•a decisive stage for the reason that at times, as when slowing down behind a load of hay on a country road, it is not possible to sound the horn .loud enough to attract the attention of the driver. However, it is believed) that a line of development is indicated by this experiment. There is even hope for a horn that will be silent when the car is not in motions The League far Less Noise per- forms a praoticad service in New York by trying to do something about the complaints that come in by mail to its office at 580 Fifth Avenue- In directing such work Mr. Peabody's geniality is of the greatest help. He finds ways of approaching people who create disturbances without being a- ware of it, affecting people who are ton timid to do anything about it themselves. A Federal law making motor muf- flers standard equipment, subject to in's'pection like other equipment, is the only thing that will bring about the silencing of noisy boats, Mr. Pea- body says, Henry R. Sutphen, presi- dent of the National Association of Engine and Boat Manufacturers, Inc., sent a letter of commendation to the League for its efforts to extend the use of motorboat mufflers, and the League sent ,his message to the com- modores of 600 yacht clubs in the united States. A number of these re- sponded syimpatheticat! y, The chief difficulty over these mufflers where they are usually most annoying on inland water is that they come then under state motorboat laws, which are too seldom enforced. Needless noise elimination has a commercial value, too, as has been proved in the reduction of clerical errors in estab- lishments that have been fitted with sound absorbing ceilings. Among the needless noises that persist in isolated spots where some- thing might be done by means of complaints to the police are whist- ling peanut roasters, raucus radios at shop entrances, distorted, noises from loud speakers,roaming the streets in the interestof politicians, ellankinrg milk bottles at 4 aim., ex- cessive factory whistling to summon em pe'oyeest Mr. Peabody would like to have New York emulate London, which found that it could do without auto horn n'oise's from 11.30 ppm. to 7.30 CharigC ss TAF, HURON EXPOSITOR a.m., within a five mile area around n ro •.

As far back as 1930, under Police Commissioner Mulnooney, there was a useful police drive against .needless motor car noises. Automobiles, are far leas noisy today than then, with drivers educated by better equipm t to a dist site Lei. ev it s�ioail rattliing. soun'd's: However; --t iiousaiids of dike •ers are atoll offeneclera against t'he public welfare in using ttheii' boats' at unreasonable times, tooting' :r eousiy when the car in front doesnot start instantly when the ,traffic lights -change, There there is the Lochinvar who, keeping a date with commend able promptness, causes his auto horn to utter loud summoning squawks be- neath his lady's .window. As a means of educating these un- thinking offenders, the League for Less Noise some months ago tried a special campaign with the assistance of the New York police, who took ov- er 100,000 green slips, printed by the League,. to be handed out to motor- ists who sound their horns needless- ly. The s0ige read: "Please help Mayor La Guardia make New York City a safer, quieter and pleasanter place• in which to live, to do business and to visit. It is il- legal to sound an automobile horn there, except as a danger signal after or as brakes are being applied. Be- sides, unnecessary noise don't get you anywhere. If your car has brakes, a little patience and courtesy will make the horn unnecessary." The Policemen, hkmded out these slips as needed, and some benefits resulted, Mr. Peabody believes, in making mo- torists aware of the senselessness of the racket that many of them make. For this is a campaign to increase neighborly consideration for the bene- fit of an. "And I suppose, like a brave sol- dier, you followed the colors?"

But -if you live on or near a farm -yon have access to a number of fine animal enbjects. And, take my word for it, domestic animals yield just as good pictures as wild ones. Just for the fun of it, why not spend a day picturing farm animals? Go after expressive, human -interest shots, such as a hen mothering her brood, or pigs struggling for position at the trough. Shoot close-ups of a placid, cud -chewing cow, or a husky work -horse -just as if you were tak- ing pictures of n person. Many ani- mals have definite, almost -human expressions at times . , . and they'll make fine pictures for your album. Distant shots, showing the animal small, will be disappointing unless it happens to be an incidental figure in a scenic. Most focusing cameras are adjusted to take subjects as near as six feet -many four feet, or even less, Many box cameras can be set for subjects as near as live. And, if you slip a portrait attachment on the camera lens, you can get even closer. Or, you can take a shot at normal distance, and have the best part of the negative enlarged to give a close-up effect. It's not necessary to show all of a large animal, such as a cow or horse. Indeed, the head alone often makes a better picture. Choose the viewpoint which shows the head and expression most effectively - and lire away. Keep the background sim- ple -changing your position when necessary to get distracting objects out of the camera's field of Viva. .
