POINT By Mary Imlay Taylor SYNOPSIS (\ CHAPTER J: Jim Keller and his sister, Jane, with old MacDowell, the foreman, operate El Rancho de Las Palomas, They are on the look- out for a former employee, Jordan a drunkard and dope-ruuner. Once they had Jordan in their grasp, but he escaped and threatened to get revenge, MacDowell picks up a "strange young man in his car. The Stranger wants work and Jim needs ranch hands, so Mac takes the new man to the rangh, Coe ap iontas CHAPTER II Mac heard a smothered exclama- tion at his side and sensed the sud- den swerving of the big car. "Strike a stone? Here, shut her off, there's one of th men--Sandy!" MacDowell © roared as the car stopped, "you come an' take th' mail in--where's Pete Rooney? He can run this car to th' garage. Here, you," he put-his hand on his new driver's shoulder, "you go right up to th' house, front door there, an' sec what Jane says about your stayin'--then you come to th' quarters for eats, see?" The young man nodded, helping the old foreman to climb down; ing at his throat, his eyes staring at the darkness of the window. His tormentor, cceing it, laughed grim- ly, but he saw the nurse turn and come toward him. She must not find him there! Softly, swiftly, he dropped back into the night and made his way to the front door. "MacDowell has just 'phoned from the garage how kind you were when he sprained his arm, and 1 want to thank you. We, my brother and I, both think a lot of old Mac!" The girl had risen from her seat at Jim's old desk as she spoke, and she faced him, He saw the fine curve of her chin and throat, and the black-lashed blue eyes. She was an upstanding girl; she could run the ranch alone in Jim's absence, The men all looked up to her, held her in high esteem. The newcomer did not speak and she went on quickly: "Mac says you'd like something to do about the ranch and we need men, any- way. "What--" she smiled frank- ly--"please tell me what you can dc best? Bookshelf . . . .

SMITH | Informality 's Recommended Usually an informal layout of flower gardens, lawn and shrub- bery about the hon.e gives the best results. The formai garden where there are straight rows, straight puths, and everything is just so is a matter 'or profes-ionals and large "estates. With the average lot in town © country there are too many straight lines in any case, like driveways, foundation walls and -fences. The main idea in gardéning is to !reak these and soften them. To do this shrub- bery is plante in irregalar clumps around, but not too close to, the house, with biggest groupings at the corners and around the front porch. Variety may be: added by the odd climbing vine, Unless the lown is gencrous in size, experts advise leaving the centre fairly open, with flower beds and shrubs around the edges acd in front of the fences and driveways. Generally the bigger and taller flowers are planted» at the back, but 'or tle sake of vari- ety a few of these shouli be brought forward, Instead of single plantings groups of individual vari- eties are advocated.
