MELISSA LANE -- Wor oints y Barry's partner, HONEY BEE GIRL -- Indian; member of Barry's party, | HADE 5 JONES -- pioneer; member of Barry's party. * LJ . Yesterday: Safe back in camp, Bob is the center, of a conflict between two women. Melissa re- alizes for the first time that Bob means more than a mere business partner to her. CHAPTER VII Zachary "Hades" Jones was working over near the stream bed, now dry and usually so, which lay at the foot of the great cliff. He was cuiting sapling poles--Ilong slender ones--with which to make ladders. He stopped swinging his axe to rest when Mary Melissa came through the bushes toward him, "You aren't expected to do this hard labor, Uncle Hades," she bee gan, "Wasn't Mr. Holliman hired for this?" "Ain't never shirked no work yet, Miss M'lissy. Think I'm git tin' old, do ye?" "No! Oh no! Scmetimes [ think you "are younger than I. But-- The old man was eyeing her closely, kindly, "Somethin's on yore mind, You been cryin." She sat down on a rock, and he waited patiently for her to -talk, "Uncle Hades, what do you think cf--of the cook? The girl?" "Why she's a godd---'scuse, ma'am--she's a danged redskin squaw ain't she?" Uncle Hades' manner suggested that such a classification was sufficient to damn her irrevoceality, forever and ever. Lissa nodded. "I mean--is she -- is she ali right? Oh I'll. tell you, confiden- tially Uncle Hides. She is throw- ing herself at Dr, Barry! [ think she imagines he's in love with her." Throwing Herself At Him Hades chewed on. his tobacco for a few seconds, "I scen that already," he stated calmly, "I been figgerin' what to do about jt." "You have scen it?" Mary Me- lissa® was surprised. "You did?" "Yes'n. -Everybody has, 1 reck- on, cxcept Bob hisself, Blind young squirt. Not that he ain't right to me, ma'am, but--Ilooky - here, Miss M'lissy, ain't choo sort of took to him yoreself?" His jaw stopped working as he peered at her intently. Her blush was answer enough, The old man cackled in friendly laughter, "Honey," he patted her should- er paternally, "I ain't figgered it out yet, but don't you worry none, I'd see him roast on cecals-before - I'd let any Indian make a foolYof him." 9 * 'o v Uncle Hades meant just "what he said. In the rare times when the old man grew reminiscent and . talked of yesteryear, fip-snorting tales of death and danger came from Him. Ten years hence he and all his kind will be dead--that --grand----army of self-reliant men and women who pioneered west- ern America, who fought nature and Indians alike, and triumphed by sheer force of character and brawn. The 1930's saw these great ones in their sunset years, and if a real Indian fighter lingers until 1949 it will be a miracle. Hades Jones was one of the hardiest. Chiselling A Footing The old man picked. up his 'ax, resumed swinging. He "had the skill of long experience. And he had many a labor-saving - trick stored away. Holliman was for lashing the cross bars or steps to the ladders with small rope, after setting them into notches. Hades made a stronger ladder in half that time by heating an iron rod and burning holes through the up- rights, then inserting his short steps therein, Mary Melissa was able to help him with the heating, and she trimiied the step ends with a hatchet, "In two days we'll have ladders all the way np," Bob predicted, 'Who will place them?" 'Lisea ked. "Holliman and I, There-are en. ough safe footings, mostly, We'll chisel a few. T'm anxious to start excavation up .there, Miss Lane. You must be next. ore up, It's-- ~ft's" marvelous!" He tingled with enthusiasm, Mary Melissa saw, 1. Honey Bee Girl kept to herself Chane % LEY od CIGARF ) nis fy Pe the said little, -but she observed much, She had been rebuffed by Bob, who hadn't perceived her purpose, but she was by io means admitting defeat. She khew some paleface tricks as weil ag Indian wiles, and she moaut to use them, The very decorous manner in which Mary Melissa now sought ta gain Bob's personal approval did not: escape Honey Bee's no- tice, Why should a white "girl, mi'es from civilization, spend half an hour on her personal toilet each morning, and again before each - evening meal? What mattered it, on a rough outdoor expedition, if one's hair. were not curled and set exactly right? Or if one's rouge were not applied perfectly, and one's clothes dainty and clean? Honey Bee Girl, however, came from a race whese dominant char- acteristic is patience. She Knows More - She watched her chance to catch Scott Holliman alone, at some distance from the camp, She came quickly to the point, as us- ual in her conversations. "You want to make mcney," she suggested, scowling, but not looking directly in his eyes. "Why--yeah, Don't ever'body? What's eatin' you, woman?" Holli- man was also matter-of-fact, "I know more about thee In' dian caves." Hcney Bee's speech had its brogue. "Thee white man, in thee big citics, they Day: for what I know." x, "That so? How's that?" "1 can show you many fine jar, Many big ollas, pots and things. In cave, Not broke, Worth many dollars. Some with thee horse de- sign. You know?" Holliman knew. Most ontdoor: se men do, in the Southwest. An au- cient pot, from some prehistoric ruin, is likely to be worth $100 or more as' a museum piece. A horse design used in ornamenting water jars and grain storage jars; -would more likely be worth $1000, Horses were not native to this continent. They were brought here by the first Spaniards. Horsa patterns painted on walls of pre- historic ruins probably are due te Spanish invasion, as at-Canvon ds Chelly. or Canyon del Muerto, -Arizona, far to the north of De- fiance Castle. But horse patterns on still earlier relics, especially on - y pottery pieces, might indicate de- scent from or communication _with Asia, Each such piece would tend to strengthen the theory that America was populated first by Asiatics, hence eat such plece was of f high value, Helliman knew that, = A Strange Proposition "Jars with horses on 'em? Whole jars?" : : Honey Bee nodded. : "All right, I'll bite. What you want?" "You make thee love, try marry thee white womah?" "Hunh?"' Holliman was shock- ed with surprise. - "You make thee love, Miss Lane. Kcep her-away from Bawb, I show you thee cave with horse jars. " It was sort of fantastic, funny --even;-this-strange proposition: But* Holliman*got the point. He pushed his floppy 10-gallon hat back on his head and grinnéd, but he told Honey Bee it was a bargain, "You do it--without me. You know?" Honey Bee scowled at him, in her peculiar manner, She ~ looked a little vicious then, for all her wild beauty, Holliman sober- cd. ©. "Yeah, I see I get paid for mak. ing live and keeping my mouth shut, while you- take Barry. It's a'deal.

CHAMBERS Milk and Eggs As Health Foods A finished product which should _ bring much satisfaction and praise is the dish compounded of milk and eggs, These two. foods probab- ly should be classed as the two most essential to health, been said by au eminent health au. thority, that milk lacks only one thing and that is bulk -- but it is frequently spoken of as 'the per. fect food." Thgn again, milk and eggs are perfect foods for children, high quality proteins, the food substances required for huilding the muscles and other tis. sues, Considering the minerals, milk is one of the best sources we have for calcium and phosphorus. Eggs, while containing an apptec- iable- amount of -these, are more _valuable for their iron content, And 'both are rich in vitamins and are therefore classed as 'protective foods". Milk is economical and at present, eggs are also in that class. Here are a few favorite recipes con.' taining these ideal foods: ORANGE OM ELEY 4 oges. 4 tablespoons orange juice 1 teaspoon grated orange rind 14 teaspoon salt. Separato eggs and beat well.
