He had a son-in-law who had been in the Italian arm}-. "When he came home," said the father-in-law, "he had three pounds of lice on him." This is' one horror of war that is now controlled. A new chemical has been developed which is deadlier to lice than any other insecticide. It is a powder and one sprinkling on soldiers' clothing provides anti-louse protection for a full month. The Wrong Time And Wrong Place But for the war, comments the Los Angeles Times, Mexico these last few months would have been one of the world's hot spots for news--and literally. The one and only mountain born in this generation is rising to the accompaniment of volcanic fireworks within 20 miles of that republic's capital and a meteor as big as several houses recenly fell in the State of Sinaloa. "Too bad", laments the Los Angeles paper, "the former did not pop up under the Imperial Palace in Tokyo and that the latter didn't land on Berchtesga- |5|S uality counts most-- for that uiyi rich, satisfying flavour which only a fine quality tea yields, use*. "SALADA TEA DAWN CHAPTER XXIV There sounded the creak of sad-, dies, the scamper of horses hoofs. '.; Then came Coggsweli's sudden .; challenge out of the dark: 'Sky high, the pair of you!.' Your covered!" Panic-stricken, Lonergan twisted the sheriffs voice. Now, in the faint starlight, he could see two mounted figures looming up out of the scrub close at hand. "Beat it!' hissed Curran in his ear. "Theyre on the wrong side \ of the gully!" Dave and Coggswell had come up on the other side of the ravine which, at this point near its blind end, was little more than a coulee. It was, however, too wide to set a horse to jump it- Next instant Curran was on his knees and firing at the two mounted figures. Dave felt a slug thump into his saddlehorn. He emptied his gun at the flashes, and heard a yelp of pain. He saw the other figure racing away, diml} outlined' against th sky. Then Curran was following, bending almost double, weaving in and out of the scrub, with his hand clapped to his ear. "Git Miss Lois, Bruce. I'll handle this pair!" the sheriff shouted, and he raced his horse around the blind end of the gully. Dave, cramming fresh cartridges ir.to his gun, saw the two weaving figures attempting to mount two of the group of horses that were clustered together r.ear the cabin en-t.ance. Coggswell was almost up->n them, his gun blazing. There came a single shot in return, then the thump and clatter of hoofs, and one of the pair was racing along the trail, leaning flat upon his horse's This was Curran, making his getaway at top speed, while Coggswell was struggling with Lonergan. Dave raced his stallion to the • stiff's side. "We'll git the other, Bruce," said Coggswell. "See if Miss Lois is in the cabin." Dave required no third invitation. He dashed into the shack The candles were guttering on the table in the outer room, but the room was empty. But in the smaller room Dave saw a little figure gagged and bound. "Lois!"' His voice went out in a cry of fury. He ran to her side, * slit the gag with his jackknife. "Lois! Lois!" he whispered. "They ain't harmed yuh, honey girl?" She tried to speak, but could only reach up for Dave's neck. He bent to covered her face with kisses. "They ain't harmed yuh?" "No," said Lois in the faintest whisper. "I'm all right, Dave." Dave swung about as the sheriff entered the cabin with his prison- •. er. "I got her, sheriff,' he called. "They ain't harmed her. Who was the other coyote, Lois:" "Curran!' Lois' voice was just audible. "Yeah, Curran,' said the sheriff grimly. "I reckernized him. Duri-no yet who was shot, but I'll know soon. Yuh best come through Lonergan," he continued. "No use splutterin like a trapped cat. There's too much evidence against yuh. And I'm stayin' here till yuh talk." Longergan glared at his captor, then seemed to wilt. "Coggswell, I'll talk--I'll talk to you," he said. "I'll talk when we're alone. Get "No difficulty about that," said Lonergan. "Bruce, s'pose yuh take Miss Lois back to her cabin on yore horse. She'll be feelin' bet-te- there, and I'll see yuh there before the night's through." arms anu carried her to where Black Dawn Was standing. He raised her into the saddle and swung up behii.d her. "Dave, they shot Mr. Ferris," whispered Lois, shuddering. "I heard the shot. They trapped him "Ferris?" Dave cried. He pulled Black Dawn around and rode up to the cabin door. "Sheriff, Lois says it was Ferris that they shot just . "Yeah," came the sheriff's grim voice, "Mr. Lonergan's just told mt that. I'll be seen' yuh later at the Hooker cabin, Bruce. Keep yore eyes peeled for Pedro." Dave turned the blade and rode off along the gully again. They rode through the canyons and were approaching the thick undergrowth at back of Hooker's' cabin. Dave leaned forward. "We're home, Lois, darliig." he whispered. "And rt looks as if all our troubles was just about over." And as the words left his mouth, there came the crack-crack-crack of six-guns from a clump of scrub to the left. Black Dawn leaped convulsively. A bullet whipped Dave's hat around on his head. Another passed between the reins, searing his knuckles. Black Dawn's legs bent under him. The horse was going "We got the coyote!" yelled Curran exultantly out of the scrub. A second man ran forward, and Dave recognized the Mexican, Pedro. But Dave was already on his 'feet, and had nulled Lois to the ground. His gun belched answer. Pedro howled as the bullets caught bin. in the chest and abdomen. Then he flattened out, his scream of death cut short, and dropped almost beneath tlle staggering stal_ ran answered him, then came the audible click of the hammer upon an empty cartridge. Dave was on. his feet again and rushing forward. With a vile curse, Curran wheeled his horse and raced through the scrub toward the Hooker cabin. Dave w-as .10 more than twenty-yards behind him when Curran reached the open, and he had already jammed fresh cartridges into his cylinder. He saw Curran working frantically with his gun, while hi„ horse, frightened by the sound of the discharges, reared wildly, almost unseating him. Yelling obsenel}, Curran spurred his horse and dashed across the mesa, and a moment later Dave could hear him forcing his mount down the steep side. bulle Black- thud He had heard into the stallion's'body. Dave ran his hand along the flank, and felt the blood dripping from the shoulder. With his fingers he traced the course of the wound. It ranged upward. Suddenly he felt the bullet just beneath the skin. It had been deflected by the shoulder bone, and seemed to have inflicted only a slight, glancing wound. Dave leaped into the saddle and gripped the horse with his knees. Black Dawn responded with his usual gait, though he was quivering from head to foot/It was clear that neither bone nor sinew had been seriously injured.

It speaks eloquently for the immensity of the ficult problems'of 'deterioration'of the land with vision and courage, through changing methods of agriculture, irrigation and the introduction of mixed farming."

Control Of Cancer Shown In Films Following the trend toward visual education the Ontario Branch of the Canadian Society for the Control of Cancer is purchasing moving picture films dealing with the control and early treatrfient of cancer which will be available upon application to the Society, at 24 Bloor Street, East, Toronto, to organizations, clubs, churches, or any other interested group throughout the Province of Ontario. The latest available - - a tistics on cancer deaths in Canada quote over 13,600 deaths a year from this disease throughout the Dominion. This number is topped only by heart diseases in the death dealing afflictions <of the human race. Approximately 5,000 of the 13,600 deaths from cancer occur in Ontario. The Canadian Society for the Control of Cancer hopes to reduce this high death rate th ough the use of the new films, lectures, talks and continued educational material sent out to the public emphasizing that early cancer can be cured. p'a\ v I l.v the Egvpti;- • ,ar'v as 1600 B.C. e feels "all ____tension?
