Safeguarding Democracy
“If our deniocracy is to survive, the whole voting public must be edu-
cated, so as to use the rational, scientific mode of approach to all our prob-
lems, instead of the.emotional, superstitious and ‘hunth’ mode of approach.”
When Dr. Robert. Millikin, eminent American physicist and scientist,
made this statement recently in a letter read at a congress of the Ameri-

can Institute in New York, he said a great deal.in a few words, and while,
no doubt, he had social.and economic problems as they exist in the United

States in mind nevertheless the philosophy contained in his words is equally}

sound ‘and applicable when considered in the light of the problems and con-

~ ditions which confront the. people of this country.

For no matter what problems exist, and without any limitation of their
geographic or ethnologic application, it is axiomatic that they cannot be
solved satisfactorily unless the ray of clear reason and logic is focussed
upon them rather than a diffused floodlight of. passion and emotion. In
other words, it is only after the problems which cry aloud for solution
have been placed under the microscope and subjected to scientific analysis

to “determine ‘what they are made of, that it is possible to prescribe an}

effective cure.

If, on the other hand, people allow their emotions to run away with
sober refiection and sound judgment, no matter how laudable those emotions
may be, no matter how fine even the impelling motives, it is a sine qua non,
that the conclusion reached will mine times ott of ten be wrong and the
goal to be achieved further removed and subsequently more difficult to
attain. .For misdirected effort surely leads to more complicated and most
undesirable consequences. y

In their turn undesirable consequences can do nothing but promote un-
rest, dissatisfaction and despair, and when these moods haye been induced
people are apt to turn to anything that offers in the hope of finding relief,
even to the extent of surrendering liberties which have. been bought at
great cost.

All this, no doubt, Dr. Millikin had back of his mind. when he wrote his
dictum that the exisfence of deniocracy is threatened for the peoples who
fail to apply science and reason to; the solution of their problems.

This does not by any means contradict the assertion that sentiment
and emotion haye their part in determining the destinies of individuals and
nations. Indeed, not only have they a part to play, but without these forces
the world would be a sorry sphere, but they require as a governor, rational
thinking: and logical decisions, so that they: may be directed along right
and useful channels.

Once rationalism has pointed the way to the solution of the problems
which vex the soul,-then is the time. to call into play the finer emotions of
burning zeal and enthusiasm to enkindle others, and it is a.safe assump-
tion that causes lighted from the beacon of incontrovertible fact and en-
trenehed wisdom are those which will ultimately prevail in the minds and
hearts of -the multitude.

The*people of Western Canada have at times been accused of being too
easily swayed by popular and ephemeral concepts and of swinging to ex-
tremes. If there is any truth to the accusation, it is equally true that they
are not more prone to do so than the peoples of other lands. For proof, it
is only necessary to take note of what is happening in other, countries.

Moreover, if at times, the citizens of this country, display an occa-
sional tendency to soar to impractical heights, as they do in other coun-
tries it is noticeable that free ventilation and discussion eventually slows
down the pendulum to a point where questions canbe considered ration-
ally, a tribute to the value of free thought and free speech, rightly re-
garded as the bulwarks of democracy.

And in this connection it is interesting to note that Dr. Millikin also
stated that he regarded the newspapers as ‘‘on the whole the most effective
adult educational influence in this country,’ coupling this with his comment
‘on the necessity of resorting to reason if democracy ig.to survive.

statement needs very little amplification, for’it igs universally

r f that the newspapers of this country devote a great deal of space
to the ee. diseussions by authoritiags and others on important
social and omic problems and also to announcements of discoveries of

Believed Link With Hittites
”
Relic Found 4,000-Year-Old Tomb
2 In’ Asia Minor *
What is bélleved to be the first a
step toward the discovery of the lost
Hittites, who appear in the Bible as
a great imperial power, has just been
found in Asia Minor. In a 4,000-
year-old tomb was discovered a Hit-
tite statue of a bull, seven ‘inches
high and inlaid with gold. The silver
smiths art is astonishingly modern,
and indicates that the race was cul-
tured rather than primitive as pre-
viously believed. The discovery has
aroused great interest among Euro-
pean archaeologists because pre-
viously nothing had been known of
the Hittites‘ work except rock Carv-
ing and a few potsherds. The relic
was exhibited recently in London.

Evergreens Recommended
As Best Shelter Belt
For The Prairie Farm

Late winter is the ideal season for
studying and planning farm home
improvements, because it is possible
to observe the* outside features of
the general layout and the effects
of winter-storms and drifting snow
around the yard and farm buildings.
At this time it is easier to discern
the places in the general view most
vulnerable to the weather which will
suggest a plan for the proper dis-
position of shelter belts and wind-
breaks to minimize the discomforts
associated with the long winter
period.

From a protection standpoint, the
broadleaf shelterbelt has its greatest
value and serves a wider purpose
during the full leaf. period. Through
the late fall and winter months, how-
ever, its protective influence is con-
siderably reduced and there is need
for a more substantial planting for
winter effect. To this end a very
effective barrier to winter weather
may be provided by a judicious and
careful planting of evergreens.

Two or three rows of these as a
separate planting or to supplement
the existing broadleaf belt will give
considerably more winter comfort
around the farm yard than several
rows of broadleaf trees. In fact,
they will form an impenétrable wall
through which no wind can pene-
trate. When all other trees are bare
and leafless, the evergreens stand
out in bold ‘pleasing relief, giving
very substantial protection and a
sense of home comfort around the
Place.

There are not enough evergreens

in the winter months like a generous
planting of evergreens. They have
an all-year round freshness and in
winter when there is no other green

most desirable for shelter belt pur-
poses.

The opinion is often expressed that
evergreens are too slow-growing and
hard to start. Evergreens do grow
slowly while young but when they
have reached a height of three to
four feet their growth is quite rapid
and then from 12 to 24 inches of
new growth yearly may be expected.
They are not hard to start provided
certain methods of handling are fol-
lowed. The small fibrous roots are
extremely sensitive to the least ex-
posure to sun and air, and for this
reason, both before packing for ship-
ment and again just before planting,
the roots should be immersed in a
mixture of soupy mud to prevent any
chance of drying out which would be
fatal and which is probably oye of
the main causes of young ev@rgreen
failures. Then after planting, the
trees will require some protection
especially in soil drifting areas, to
prevent damage to the tender yow
needles by soil particles. In *
early spring months young ever:

large extent but it is advisable to
also place a winrow of straw or
brush, a shingle or similar screen to
provide shade on the,squth side of
the trees. This is a very imp

season must be frequent, thorough,

and in all cases shallow. Ever-
green roots are fairly close to the
surface and deep cultivation will
quickly destroy the fibrous feeding
roots. Watering is not usually nec-
essary except during very dry spells
when a thorough soaking at inter-
vals is preferable to frequent appli-
vation of small quantities.

In addition to the possibility of
sun scalding in the young growth
stage, evergreens are often subject
to rabbit injury. Fencing against
this pest is not altogether practical
on a large scale and is quite ex-
pensive. As a protection against
both sun and rabbits the use of
building paper or burlap, wrapped
around the small trees.in the late
fall is recommended for the first
three years. If there is a good snow
cover, only the exposed growths will
require this protection. This protec-
tion should, of course, be removed
each year as soon as Settled spring
weather sets in.

More evergreens have died in
drought years from the ravages of
insect infestation than from actual
lack of moisture. Trees that develop
a sickly and discolored foliage ap-
pearance are in all probability the
victims of insects. These insects and
their control may be described as
follows:

Spider Mite—Is very minute in
size, forming a webbing among the
spruce needles. Its presence is as-
sociated with a brownish discolora-
tion of the needles, controlled by
spraying about the middle of May
first with a strong pressure of water
to wash off the webbing, followed by
a thorough spraying with an insecti-
cide consisting of ome pound dry
lime sulphur to 18 gallons of water.

Pine Leaf Scale — Minute white
scales common on the needles of
Spruce and Pine. Larvae emerges
about the first’ week in June and a
spray of one pound dry lime sulphur
to 18 gallons of water is effective at
that time only. :

Spruce Sawfly—Larvae a yello
green with reddish brown head which
appear about the second week in

‘| June and remain until about the

middle of July. These larvae are
very heavy feeders and a heavy in-
festation will quickly defoliate a
tree. However, their depredations, if
noticed in time are easily controlled
by spraying with the following solu-
tion: Two pounds .of lead arsenate

‘|and 1% pounds of hydrated lime to

40 gallois of water.

The above are probably the most
common and. destructive insect
enemies of Spruce and Pine occur-
ring in the prairie provinces at the
present time. Samples of shoots
from trees suspected of infestation
should be forwarded to the En-
tomological Laboratory at Indian
Head, Sask., for proper identifica-
tion and advice on control.

Claim Baldness Inherited

Experts Give Report After Making
Stady Of Subject

Baldness is to a large extent due
to whether or not a person’s father
or mother is bald, according to the
finding of experts.

A study made by Ohio State Uni-
versity officials, reported in the
magazine Human Biology, shows
that baldness is transmitted from
father to son.

“The sons of a bald woman will
all be bald,” is one of their findings.
A woman never is bald unless her
father was. When both parents are
bald, the sons must all be bald, but
some of the daughters may not de-
velop baldness.

Baldness is more common in men
than women and is generally trans-
mitted directly from a father to half
or more of his sons but only to an
occasional daughter.

The extraordinary way in which
plants grow has engaged the cor-
respondence columns of John o’ Lon-
don’s Weekly for many months. The
readers of this periodical have been
supplying the curious with accounts
of the unusual ways in which plants
act, when faced with problems which
must be solved if they are to con-
tinue to exist. One. correspondent
mentions a case that has a similarity
to that of the eucalyptus tree. In a
cave in the Midlands he saw the
white roots of a tree, about 12 feet
or 14 feet high, dangling from the
top soil of the roof of the cave to
reach the water at the floor. “How,”
he asked, “did these trees know the
moisture was there so far below?”
People who have clipped hedges
must have often come across an
example of a plant's fight for life,
similar to that recounted by another
correspondent. At the bottom of his
garden was an old-established privet
hedge eight feet high and. two and
one-half feet through. One day,
when he was about to trim it, he
noticed a thistle bloom eighteen
inches from the top of the hedge.

some eight feet, and having reached

thistle characteristics, still nourished
through its “pipe line.” The writer
observes: “Surely it needs very little
imagination to see some element of
“thought” on the plant’s part in
adopting such an expedient in un-
favorable circumstances.”

Hence Most of Us Have “‘Acid

Stomach’”’ At Times. Easy
Now to Relieve.

Doctors say that much of the so-
called ‘indigestion,’ from which so
many of us suffer, is really acid in-
digestion . brought about by too
many acid-formin foods in our
modern diet. And that there is now a

way to relieve this . .. often in
minutes!
Simply take Phillips’ Milk of

Magnesia after meals. Almost im-
mediately this acts to neutralize the
stomach acidity that brings on your
trouble. You “forget you have a
stomach!”

Try this just once! Take either the
familiar liquid ‘PHILLIPS’ ”’, or;

Prehistoric Dragon Fly

Wing Of Thirty-Inch
Found In Kansas

A remnant of one of the world's
largest insects, a prehistoric dragon
fly about 2% feet long, was dis-
covered in the limestone beds near
Elmo, Kansas, by Dr. Frank M.
Carpenter, of Harvard University
museum of comparative zoology.

Only a part of one wing of the
giant insect was found, but there
was sufficient of this to accurately
estimate the size of the entire speci-
men. Many other insects of this
same family have been found pre-
viously in other parts of the world,
so it was not difficult for Dr. Car-
penter to estimate the size from the
portions of the wing.

The giant insect was a member of
a group known as Protodonata and
lived in the Permian Age about 150,-
000,000 years ago. Insects of this
type, with long thin bodies and thin
wings, were the most powerful that
ever lived and masters of the air in
their time, scientists agree.

They were among the swiftest of
insects and because of their great
strength could cover. great distances
in one flight. They lived off smaller}
insects, as no birds or mammals
lived in that age.

More than 8,000 prehistoric in-
sects have been found by Harvard |
expeditions in these same limestone |
beds in Kansas, where they are un-
usually well preserved.

The only other insect ever found
approaching the size of this specimen

was uncovered in northern France
about 50 years ago.

“Go West, Young Man”

New Novel, Recently Published,
Should Make Strong Appeal
To Western Readers
There have been few good novels!
about the kind of Canadians who
comprise seventy per cent. of the
population—the farm and rural peo-
ple and the mass of ranesalenye: city

workers.

Such books as have been written
have been mostly about farm life, al-
though real farmers often have some
difficulty in recognizing themselves!

So rural readers will give a warm
welcome to “Go West, Young Man”,
a new novel by Bernard J. Farmer,
which Thomas Nelson & Sons of
Toronto have just published.. For it
shows accurately, excitingly, and yet
poignantly, the experiences of a
young man, fresh from the Old
Country, tossed into the whirlpool of
“unskilled labour” on which Can-
ada’s impressive cities float.

Western readers will find it en-
lightening to get at first hand—em-
bodied in a vividly written and ex-
citing novel—the shift by which un-
skilled workers live. ‘The hero of
“Go West, Young Man” labours on
railway section crews, sells silk
stockings from door ot door in Win-
nipeg, works on construction gangs
in Manitoba, and mines in Northern
Ontario, He often starves but never
whines, is often down but never out,
and in the end achieves contentment
in a modest job—with a modest,
contented wife beside him.

The fact that so many incidents
come from the personal experience
of the author adds immensely to the
book's value.

each with ten reflector buttons which

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON

VISION AND SERVICE

Golden text: He that abideth in
me, and I in him, the same beareth
much fruit. John 15:5b.

Lesson: Luke 9.

21.

Explanations And Comments

The Vision on the Mount, Luke 9:
28-36. Taking with him his three
favored disciples, the three who had
been with him at the raising of the
daughter of Jairus, and later were
with him at the grave of Lazarus
and in the Garden of Gethsemane,
Jesus went up into the mountain to
pray.

And as Jesus was praying, the
fashion of his countenance was alter-
ed (Matthew says, “His face did
shine as the sun’), and his raiment
became white and dazzling. Let us
not think of a splendor falling on
him from without and lighting him
up, but rather, as has often been
said, of a glory coming from within,
corresponding to something going on
in his mind. We are told that the
face of Moses shone after he had
been in communion with God on the
Mount, and we can readily under-
stand that after hours spent in
prayer Jesus would be exalted in
spirit and a new light would shine
from his countenance, his whole ap-
pearance being changed. John G.
Paton in his autobiography speaks
of the wonder and awe with which

Devotional reading: II. Peter 1:16-

he and his brother would notice the
beautiful light on their father’s
face as he appeared after a time of
seclusion when he had been talking
with God.

The Service On The Plain, Luke

9:37-43. On coming down the moun-}-:

tain to its base Jesus and the three
disciples found a great crowd gath-
ered there; among them were scribes,
who prokably had been trying to un-
dermine the influence of Jesus dur-
ing his absence. As Jesus approach-
ed, all hastened to him and a man in
the crowd cried out:

“Teacher, I beseech thee to look
upon my son; for he is mine only
child; and behold, a spirit taketh
him, and suddenly crieth out; and it
teareth him that he foameth, and it
hardly departeth from him, bruising
him sorely.”

“Bring hither thy son,’’ Jesus bade.
Jesus healed him and gave him back
to his father. See the account in

ITALO-GERMAN
ALLIANCE SAID TO
BE IN PROSPECT

Rome. — An excellent authority
said an understanding resembling
the old triple alliance seemed to be
taking shape, an eventuality which
would place Benit* Mussolini and
Adolf Hitler side by side in a dras-
tic revisics of European alignments.

A possible Italo-German-Austrian |
agreement, this source said, was or
is being discussed in both Florence
and Berlin.

Following conversations in Flor- |
ence between Austrian and Italian
diplomats, Ulrich Von Hassell, Ger-|
many’s ambassador to Italy, left

by plane for Berlin.

Von Hassel held a long conference
with Fulvio Suvich, Italian under-|
secretary for foreign affairs, who
talked later in Florence with Egon}
Berger-Waldenegg, foreign minister

of Austria.
(The old triple entente of Ger-
many, Austria-Hungary and Italy}

was shattered during the Great War

when Italy refused to fight for the)
central powers and later joined the|
allies.)

A possible agreement
Rome, Vienna and Berlin,
learned, contains three main points.

1.—Germany and Austria would|
mutually lower tariffs considerably, |
almost to the point which would!
make a customs union.

2.—Germany would guarantee,
Austria’s independence -- of which
Italy hitherto has been the guardian.

3.—Italy would admit the free de-)
velopment of pan-Germanism in
Austria so long as it did not destroy
Austrian independence.

Kept Alive Three Years

Artificial Lung Used On Man With

The following year, Sir William
Bragg, scientist, devised an appar-|
atus of football bladders connected
by a wide rubber tube, says The!
Times story. One bladder was)
tightly bandaged to Halahan’s chest
and the other, between two hinged
boards, was worked by the feet like
a bellows. Later an hydraulic ap-
paratus worked by water was de-

signed and used until Halahan’s
death.

have damaged the imperial plane in
a manner so certain to lead to dis-
aster and yet so difficult to discover,

Boost In Export Trade

Increased Exports To Britain And
United States For January
Ottawa,—Citing figures of increas-
ed exports to the United Kingdom
and the United States for January,
compared with January, 1935, Hon.
W. D. Euler, minister of trade and
commerce, declared in a statement
there had been a “sharp advance” in

trade with these two countries.

“Exports to the United Kingdom
in January amounted to $21,682,840
compared with $16,611,036 in Jan.
1935, an increase of $5,071,804 or
80% per cent.’, the minister said.
“Exports to the United States
amounted to $20,129,564 compared
with $17,529,101, an increase of $2,-
600,463 or almost 15 per cent.”

The minister stated that ‘con-
trary to the expectation of oppon-
ents of the reciprocity agreement}
with the United States, the opening
up of trade with that country had

not affected adversely Canadian
trade with the United Kingdom. On
the other hand, exports to the

United Kingdom had increased at an
even greater rate than the United
States.”’

URGE PLAN FOR .
PENSIONS 10 BEGIN
AT AGE OF 60

Ottawa. — Monthly pensions for
Canadians who reach the age of 60
and voluntarily retire from their
jobs to make room for younger men
and women, met a varying response
in the House of Commons.

The pension plan was urged by
Abraham Heaps (C.C.F., North Win-
nipeg).

There was no exact sum fixed as
the proposed monthly pension. Mr,
Heaps wouldTike to see it as high
as $50 a month but admitted the
drain on the treasury would be too
great. Mr. Woodsworth specified the
pension should be on some high
plane, giving security to worn-out
men and women.

As the means of paying for the
scheme, Mr. Heaps suggested “a
limited form of controlled inflation,”
based on the potential wealth of the
country. He said the 1931 census
showed there were 870,428 men and
women in Canada 60 years of age
and over who would be eligible for
pensions.

The Winnipeg member moved the

“And, whereas, it is desirable as
many as possible be absorbed into
the useful industrial life of the Do-
minion;

“Therefore, be it resolved, that in
the opinion of this house, the gov-
ernment be requested to immediately
introduce legislation granting ade-
quate retiring allowances to all citi-
zens over 60 years of age, thereby
giving an opportunity to large num-

bers now unemployed to be re-
absorbed into useful productive
activity.”

Mr. Heaps referred to the old age
pension scheme as one of the most

Cheated Out Of Birthdays

Mayor Of Ottawa To Celebrate 11th
Birthday On Feb. 29
Ottawa.—Announcement of Mayor
Stanley Lewis, of Ottawa, that he
will celebrate his “11th” birthday on
February 29, although he is 48 years
old, has brought a sad. truth to
light, he is not alone in his plight.
From Montreal, Halifax and Winni-
peg letters have arrived from per-
sons of identically the same age,
sympathizing with a fellow Post

day-misser.

Mrs. Rose Wansbrough, pis Winni-
peg, explains some of the details in
her letter to the mayor. ‘In 1900 I
80 well rerthember the disgust of my
twin-sister and myself upon being
informed that we did not have a real
birthday that year, as February 29
is eliminated at the new century. It
was an eight-year wait that time!”

Mayor Lewis says he well remem-
bers that eight-year wait and insists
that next time it happens, which will
be several hundred years from: now,
he will celebrate his birthday just
the same. y

The mayor's birthday party this
year will take place at the city's
largest theatre and the price of ad-
mission is one new pot or kettle per
person. Next day they will find their
way into the homes of the needy.

GOODS AND SERVICES THE REAL
. WEALTH OF ANY COUNTRY.
Social Credit does not mean $25 a month
in monetary basic dividends, WE. Hayes, the
member of the Legislature for Stony Plain
Constituency, told the Legislature last week.

“What political party whose conscience
is dictated to by the financiers even thinks or
cares-whether a man gets food, clothing or
shelter ?” the member queried, in leading up
to his declaration. “They are so grasping and
selfish they would shut off the very air we
-breathe if it would declare more dividends for
their creditors.”

Then he declared: { Social Credit has been
represented by these men and by the greatest
part of the press as asystem by which the
government will distribute to the citizens a
monthly dividend of $25—money.

“This disjointed definition of Social Credit
and the scornful questions appended both go
to show that these men and the press are tot-
ally ignorant of what they are telling or pub-
lishing.

“Goods and services represent the real
wealth of any country—not any $25 money.
Money should be the medium of moving real
wealth, but instead it lowers production to
the level of purchasing power. Social Credit
raises buying power to the level of consump-
tion. Which is the more sensible ?”

He added: “Social Credit aims to control
the credit of the country and make all con-
sumers partakers of the result of that process.
Call it dividends, money or what you wish, so
as it gives us purchasing power for the goods
we need.”

FOUR THOUSAND YEARS.

“The poor man hath no strength to save
himself from him that is stronger than he.”
This ancient Egyptian proverb was taken as a
text by John T. Hull of Winnipeg, in a recent
radio talk. There you have the key to all the
injustice endured by the man on the land in
the thousand yesterdays and today, Mr. Hull
said. Agriculture has been the slave of civili-
zation because its very nature made it socially
weak and the easy prey of the socially strong.

The ancient empire of Babylonia, in its
code of laws promulgated about four thousand
years ago—the code of Hammurabi, the oldest
in the world—provision is made for relief of
farm creditors in the event of crop failure. No
interest could be charged when harvests were
destroyed.

Solon of Greece 2500 years ago made fame
and immortality by wiping out all farm mort-
gages and starting the agriculture of Greece
out on a clean sheet.

You may ask: Why all this rummaging
into the fields of the ancient past? Simply to
make a connection and run a straight line
4000 years long and show you agriculture at
the beginning. You know all about what it is
like at this end of the line. Do you notice much
difference ? Hardship, exploitation, indebted-
ness, relief and debt adjustment at both ends
of the line—4000 years of it.

Organisation and co-operation, Mr. Hull
stated, gives us the key to the economic prob-

lems of Canadian agriculture. Without these it |

will never achieve its rightful place in the
economic edifice of the nation, for “The poor
- man has no strength to save himself from him
that is stronger than he.”—Alberta Wheat Pool

FLEMING’S
FOLLY

- BY
LAWRENCE A. KEATING

CHAPTER VII.—-Continued
He avoided her glowing eyes. “TI
don’t know if we could raise the
money. And suppose sémebody hurt

you? I'd never forgive myself!”
The visitor cleared his throat, But
she turned on him, drawing herself
to full height. ‘Mr. Berrens, your
offer is not acceptable because Link

Mr. Fleming—has already_ agreed
to build the dam. He has made a
contract—”

“A contract?”
She eyed Berrens a moment, then
slowly turned back to Link. “You

gave your word. Isn't that as good
as anything written?”

“Sure it is. But—”

“Your word to join me in building
the dam. What if we do have to
wait till Spring?” she burst out.
“You and I talked about. this in let-
ters ,before I came home. We de-
termined to build a dam to prove
irrigation will. work. Well, you and
I became partners. And I won't let
you draw out of that, or sell to some
company that will do the very thing
you want to do to Silver Creek. No
sir!’ Helen cried, and stamped. a
Small foot to the floor until her spur
jingled like the clink of silver in a
bag. ‘We're partners, and partners
we stay!”

He raised himself. on his. elbow.
Berrens started to say something’
but Link’s sharp gesture stopped
him. There was a new, strange
light in his eyes that had not been
there before. Despite the shining
grease that covered his face, and the
total lack of eyelashes or eyebrows,
enthusiasm and’ something - deeper,
more lasting, dawned in his look.

“Say! I'd sure like to be partners
with you a long time after we
build—”

His words were drowned in a
crash. Dumfounded, youth and girl
swung to view the bunkhouse win-
-|dow that had been shattered by G, I.
VY. Berrens’ hurtling body. At sound
of running steps that entered the
bunkhouse, and a stentorian voice
that boomed at them, they swung
back startledly.

“Link!” bawled Sheriff Ames
Stephen as he ‘poised, sixgun in hand.
‘T’m after the gent that bought
dynamite at Sam Pickett's store yes-
day. Yeah, an’ a Winchester and
slugs too. Gold teeth in his face;
short, wears a coat like a hoss blan-
ket. ._I bet he’s the hombre shot
Torney and mebbe salted yore stove!
Where'd he go?”

Seconds ticked away before they
comprehended. Fleming © crawled
painfully out of his bunk to stand
swaying dizzily. “The window, Sher-
And—and gosh, get him! I’m
‘depending on you, Ames! Get the

0, ’cause we sure don’t want him
loose when we build that dam!”

The easy grace with which Helen
Hamilton slid from her saddle did
not escape Fleming’s admiring gaze,
nor the movement of her willowy
figure as she stooped under the rack
and straightened on the plank side-
walk. In buckskin divided skirt,
worn but carefully blacked boots
with little spurs. jingling as she
walked, peaked Stetson, and a pon-
gee blouse, she presented a picture
which more than one man in Boone
County was prone to view with keen
appreciation.

Link dismounted and fastened his
horse’s reins as she had already
fastened those of her pinto, Helen
had paused at the window of Irv
Lane's jewelry store, and he moved
to her side. His interested eyes
sought the objects of her attention,
several diamond _ solitaire rings
priced from one hundred to five hun-
dred dollars in front of which rested
a card, “Special—20% Off.”

Thrusting one hand into his
trousers pockets, Link worked a ten
and four-one dollar bills into a pulpy
ball. Hesitantly he indicated a ring
whose stone flashed brilliant red and
blue darts more vivid than those of
its competitors. “That's a _ nice
lookin’ one.”

She cocked her head to calculate
the ring’s effectiveness. “Yes. It’s
the very nicest there.”

In the silence that ensued Link’s
eyes roved the window display down-
ward to Helen’s slender, capable left
hand at her side. There was a look
of sober reflection on his boyish face
as he shifted weight. Unexpectedly
their.eyes met, but fluttered down
with instant embarrassment. Flem-
ings sinewy nut-brown fingers
crushed the money-in his pocket into
a harder, smaller sphere.

“That ring’d shore look nice on
yore hand,” he ventured. “I mean, it
wouldn’t be half good enough, but
it'd look—’”’ He _ checked himself.
“Well,” Link shrugged, “when our
dam begins to make alfalfa and stuff
grow in that wasteland, maybe Irv
Lane’ll make a sale.” He hesitated,
summoning courage. “Would. you
be—pleased ?” .

Helen tucked a wisp of chestnut
hair under her Stetson. Her eyes
met his, but sought again the dis-
play of jewelry while her cheeks
colored swiftly. “I didn’t know you
felt—I mean, you never said you
wanted—”’

There was a momentary silence.
“I hope everything works out all

right, Link.. If the Triple H becomes
prosperous I want to hire a lawyer
to try to persuade the Governor to
pardon Buzz. Never a day passes
but I think of him in that terrible
place.” A shudder made her shoul-

ful if I could somehow get him out
of prison?”

Fleming gave her a_ sidelong
glance. ‘““Reckon it’d please you about
as much as anything, wouldn’t it?

have to serve the rest of his three

As boots sounded closer along the
hollow sidewalk Link turned, his ex-
pression changing to slight displeas-
ure. He nodded to Kilgo, whose
round mottled face wore a grin pon-
derously genial.

“Spendin’ yore dough before yuh
