Are you all right? TSiat shot?" Tears were streaming down her face. He kissed her. "I'm not hurt. He Kissed." Colonel Harris was beside him. "Good work. Collins. Got all of UIMU. Bentley?"

Tli sheriff aws setting out of his car. 'Twas Monnie'i Idea It wag not until Bentley and his te Mike's own car that Colonel men were headed toward town Harris explained. "This was all Miss Mile*' Idea, Collins. You have her to thank for saving your life." Larry .squeez- ed her tighter to hiiu. He had never released her. "She figured Be-iiUey perfectly," Harris went on. "Bentley got away with Hugh's murder. He thought he could do the same thing with you. "Miss Miles, here, had to make him decide to get rid of you him- self, and she wanted him to keep remembering Hugh" "That's why I had to tell him you were Hugh'-, brother," Monnie bzroke in. 'That's why I pretended to hate you." "Miss Miles called us as -mm as she sot away from Bentley's" the highway patrol chief continued. "We knew we'd never get you alive If we rushed the house. So after Miss Miles explained more about the other accident, \ve decided Be-utlpy would try the same thing over again. When he called the sheriff, were were sure of it. We came up here, hid down in the canyon. "Luckily, I sent wnt of the boys up on the hill to watch for Benl- ley. He took care of Joe. We heard everything Bentley said. "It was getting you out safely that worried us. We knew you weren't tied, but we were afraid that Bentley would shoot you the minute he suspected anything. When he started talking about Miss Miles, I told her to shout, and let you take your own chances. She was game enough to do It. It worked out swell." "Monnie's voice did It," Larry said. "It was unexpected and It threw Bentley off guard. That gave me time to clip him, and to push that giui away." "And the others had their hands in the air as soon ae fche boys pointed a gun at .them. We kept them covered all (he (imp we were here, Just In ease But we didn't want to start a battle." "I was scared, Larry." scared to dt'ath." Monnie said. "But I had to keep Mike from killing you." Harris walked with them to thp sheriff's car. "You go back to the rajicl). The sheriff and I will go on up to Bentley's. There may have been a scmp there. I sent, half H dozen men up the canyon road to take Bentle-y's place. T think we'll have enough on Bint- ley and all his men to hang him after I go over his records."

LICI NEW CURING PROCESS MAKES EASTER HAM MORE TENDER (Cuts Cooking Time, Too) "by MARY CLAIRE THOMPSON Thousands of cords of oak and hard maple have sent iheir pungent smoke seeping into the Easter ha ins that now wait to join with Easter eggs on your feast day table. Ham, baked, broiled or boiled has always been a Canadian favorite Decause of its flavor and juiciness. Today, however, a now process of curing and smoking makes hams extra tender, juicy and sweet. What's more, the flavor is the same right through the ham from the outside layer of fat to tha bone. This new curing and smoking; process, called tenderizing, not only gives them a richer flavor, but makes the meat more tender as well. Whole Ham, Baked Do not be afraid to buy a whole ham for Easter, but be sure to select one that has had the new tenderizing process. Ask for a Tender- sweet ham. You will appreciate the difference from the old style hams just as soon as you start to cook it. No soaking, no parboiling is neces- sary before putting this ham in the oven. Just give it a long, slow bak- ing, then about 15 minutes before serving, remove the rind and spread the fat with a brown sugar glaze. Serve the whole ham baked, for the special Easter Sunday dinner. Then during the week following, slice some of the left-over piece for quk-k broiling. For another meal, use chopped cooked ham in croquettes, a meat loaf or as a sandwich filling and finally draw out every last bit of goodness from the ham by sim- mering the bone for soup. What's pea soup without a ham bone? You will find one of these Tendersweel hams a thrifty meat buy because every scrap can be used. Fruit* Are Affinities It is not surprising that juicy hams and fruits are the latest in food affinities. They are lovely to look at and delicious to eat. Broiled pears, sauteed pineapple, spiced peaches, pickled cherries and raisin sauce are ham accompaniments of epicurean acclaim. Here is a suggested menu for an Easter dinner made festive because it features Tendersweet ham. The simple directions for cooking tha ham are given as well as the recipe for Raisin Sauce, an ideal accom- paniment.

He watched them back the sher- iffs car around, then head down the hill. After they had gone, he crossed the road, stared down into the canyon. "Your Job is finished now, Hiifcb." he said. MOMMIC Is Waiting Colonel Miles a-nd Pete Barnes had to hear all the details us soon as Monnie and I^airy returned. Thf-y had learned of Monnie's plan as soon as they came back from Lost Canyon, and it had boen dif- ficult to keep the Colonel from riding off to "'blow Bentley off thr ; ma])." ''Sorry I wa.nted to hang you for stealing calves. Collins," tih CoT- onel apologized gruffly. "1 kept telling you Larry would- n't steal," Barnes added. "Korget it,'' Larry said.

"He tulked about buying the Circle Cross for Pte before Beutlny came." "And If he does?" Larry aakei). "The Hayhook will need a new foreman." "But I've got a Job. with Stern Clark."

Dresses; Materials Avail- When spring comes \ve all revolt against the dark severities of win- ter's fashions. Suddenly, we waul to be feminine. We want to froth, frou-frou, and fancy flnisdiings. Our spring suits, coats anil dresses must spill a bit of snowy white or Miowa flash of dainty pink or blue.

When con- fined to the stiff sailor straw or the Panama both in the bleached while color there was little en- joyment and not too much com- fort in the change to straw hats. This past year brought the discov- ery of a vast new field in sum- mer hats. There are now innum- erable new featherweight, mesh- woven tropical hats, in a great variety of native weaves and pat- terns which are thoroughly in- bucd with the color and comfort of modern porous, hot- weather clothes. In all, a menu of some- thing like 300 new summer hats, each with its special quality of appearance and comfort, hai been kdded for men's choice. With Colored Btnds These new hats are trimmed with bands to express every man's fancy and harmonize with all types of costumes plain colors, bright print pugress in Javan Batik, polka dot and other gay patterns, two-tone bands, bands of soft-col- ored Oxford shirting. Particular- ly striking is the Mayan Indian band, woven in Guatemala in au- thentic native patterns and color?. Shoes Step Out In Lively Hues Red Leads Parade; Like Hats, the Sillier the Better have been so many pre- views of th Easter parade that the occasion itself will have an ele- in en i of surprise in seeing exactly wliat this or that woman may choose to make of herself. One may he a trim girl In suit and sailor, or another a lady in soft frills or a portrait in finery. A COLORFUL EASTER Jt certainly is going to be a lively spring as gay and colorful as styl- ists can contrive, which is pretty gay and colorful. Even shoes will step lively in colors headed by red, which seems a bit revolution- ary but such is the case. No one expects, or seems to want, sen- Bible shoes. Like lints, the sillier they are the harder we fall for them, but they art* not all open- toed and many have closed heels, which is somt'tliing. The pyramid- ed heel is smart and hints of dan- ger, although it really isn't as tricky as it appears. If you don't happen to care for novelty shoes, it's too bad, since all sorts of unusual trimmings arc used, ranging from nail heads, dec- ok-iitive brass ones, to match box affairs that sprout where bows and Imokles once grew. Plniiento and ht-nrt-beat red are two of the fav- ored shoe colors. Laundering Your Candlev/ick Spread One of tin? most popular mod- ern fabrics is candlewick. It's reasonable, it's attractive to look at "find it conies in lovely colours. This is ITOW to launder spreads.- Make some wood, soapy water and plunge the fabric in, use a squeezing- action to expel the dirt, but don't rub or wring the mater- ial. Rinse until the final rinsing water is clear (two or three in- stalments of water as a rule) and then hang outside until nearly, dry.. When the candlewick is al- most dry, shake it as hard as you can to brinff up the wicky part and when it is absolutely dry heat the whole surface with a li^ht brush, a sort of dabbing, whisk- ing action. You can iron a quilt so long as you avoid the raised tufts, but a l>th-rrmt. requires no pressing at all. MUSIC Although the spirit );e not master of that which it creates through music, yet it is blessed in this creation, which, like every creation of art, is mightier than the artist. Beethoven. Music is the harmonious yoice of creation; an echo of the invis- ible world; one note of the divine concord which the entire universe is destined one day to sound. Mazzini Human hope and faith should join in nature's grand harmony, and, if on minor key, make music )n the heart. Mary Bakej: Eddy. The highest graces of music flow from the feelings of the heart. Nathaniel Emraons. Music, in '.he best sense, does not require novelty; nay, the older it is, and the more we are accus- tomed to it, the greater its effect. Goethe Among the instrumentalities of love and peace, surely there can be no sweeter, softer, more effec- tive voi'.'e than that of gentle peace-breathing music.
