Grant's first glimpse was of Zen; she had struggled to her feet, thank God, she was not dead. Then he saw the two men by the edge of the cliff; Transley he recognized; saw the knife rise and strike-- The blow Grant landed in Drazk's face sent that gentleman spinning like a top. Like a top, too, Drazk wobbled at the end of his spin; wobbled over the edge of the precipice, and dropped out of sight. ' Grant fell on his knees beside the stricken Transley; leaned over; raised the quivering form in his arms. Zen, beside him, drew the sorely mangled head to her breast and whispered words of endearment into ears soon clo- sing to all mortal sounds... . Presently Transley opend his eyes. They were'sane, quiet eyes now; the fight was over; only the eternities lay ahead. "Grant--tell me one thing," he murmured. "You have been straight--with Zen?" "As God hears me," Grant an- swered. For an instant the eyes of the rivals--and friends--met; _ rivals no longer; friends only, forever. Then the form of Transley shiv- ered in the arms of Zen and Den- nison Grant! Shivered and set- tled into eternal sleep. * Ok * OX The sun of another summer was flooding the tawny flanks of the foothils when Zen and Den- nison Grant rode together over the old trail to the Y.D. Since Transley's death Grant had not spoken to Zen of love; He seem- ed to know that at proper time Zen herself would break silence. And now she*had asked him to accompany her to her father's home, and to spend a few days roaming their old haunts in the foothills. Y.D., older, but in unimpaired vigor greeted him boisteriously. "Well, well, you old coyote! Had to come back to the hills! They all do. If I was a young man again I'd get me a herd o' heifers an' trek into the back country. spite o' hell an' high water--" The greeting of the rancher's wife was less effusive, but no less sincere. The evening was spent in hospitality and in a picturesque recounting by the rancher of events in the brave days before barbed wire fences pricked every bubble of romance, and at a late hour it was Zen's own hands that carried Dennison's lamp and guided him to the spare room for the night. The next afternoon Zen appear- ed at the gate with horses saddled for two. "Come, Denny, we are going for a ride," she announced, and in a few minutes their mounts were pounding down the trail which led over the foothills to the South Y.D. Zen was strangely silent upon their ride, and Grant, after futile attempts to engage her in conver- sation, was content to ride at her side and admire her horseman- ship and her beauty. The suffer- ing and the years had left her strangely unscarred; she seemed to Grant wholly as adorable as on the day of her unspoken confes- sion when they had met at the ford. Soon she must speak! He had waited; he could wait. They followed the trail, little changed by all the passage of years, down the slopes to the South Y.D. They forded the river, and Zen swung her horse about in the grove of cotton; woods. "You remember this spect, Den- ny?" she asked. "It is where we first met." "T remember," he said. No, he would not be tempted into a de- monstration. She must lead. The sun was gilding the moun- tain tops with gold, and gilding. tco, Zen's face and hair with beauty ineffable. For a moment she sat in the slanting light like a statue of bronze. her eyes met his; then fell. She spurred her horse to a plunge and galloped ahead up the valley. Miles passed, and the quick twilight of the foothills was upon them before she drew up again. This time it was by a great boul- der, a sort of flat rock stranded on the sloping shoulder of a hill. Something seemed to burst in Grant's throat as he recognized it--the rock on which they had spent the memorable night so long ago when the world and they Thank God, Zen as y omance burn- For an instant |: ed in her heart--who but Zen would have thought of this? He sprang from his horse, and she from hers. He approached her with open arms. "Zen! you have brought me here for a purpose; Don't deny it! I understand!" ~ She was in his arms. "How well you read one's mind," she murmured. "But, oh, how slow- He held her tight. There were worlds to say, but he could whis- per only "Zen--my Zen" into the tangled glory of her hair. At length she held him gently away, "I believe someone is com- ing up the trail," she said. It was true enough! a horse and rider were rapidly aprpoach- ing. As he skirted the hill he caught sight of them, swung om from the trail and rode up beside them. "Ah, here you are!" he exclaim- ed. "Hope I didn't keep you waiting, Mrs. Transley" "You are punctuality itself," =a Zen said, as she took his hand. "You haven't met Mr.' Grant? Denny, this is Mr. Mun:oe--the Reverend Mr. Munroe." "The reverend! What! Zen, explain things!" "Very simple. Mr. Munroe was to meet us here at eight o'clock, and here he is." Zen was unstrapping a kit from her saddle. "I have a document here--if I haven't lost it--which will interest Mr. Munroe. Ah here it is!" She produced an envelope, and Mr. Munroe examined the con- tents. "Seems to be all in order" he remarked. "A license author- jizing the marriage of Dennison Grant and Zenith Transley. This 'rock should make a very accept- able pulpit.

UDGING from the letters the Guild has received old Santa Claus must have pulled many cam- eras out of his bag and quite gen- erously presented them to those of all ages. Although modern day film has simplified snapshooting and allows for a certain amount of variation in shutter speed and lens aperture, some owners of new cameras seem to be having a little trouble in get- ting properly exposed snapshots. Well, the first time you played golf you didn't get a perfect drive, did you? It's practice and experimenting that make for improvement. Here's a suggestion that will help you get better results; that is, if you follow it. When you take a picture make a note of the "stop" you used. By that I mean, the first or second opening, if you have a box camera, or if you have a folding camera you should also make note of the speed of the shutter, that is, 1/25th of a second, * 1/50th or whatever it may have been. When the prints are returned you can look at them and say to your- self--"This one of Billie is awfully dark and doesn't show up as I ex- pected. Let's see now--I took this picture at noon at 1/50th of a sec- ond and had the diaphragm set at 7.11. A little too fast to get the proper exposure under a hazy sky. The next time, under the same conditions, I'll either set the diaphragm pointer at 7.8 to let in more light or else leave the diaphragm opening at 7.11 and set the shutter speed at 1/25th of a second so as to give the picture a longer exposure." You can readily see how valuable and important this information would be to help im- prove the quality of your pictures. Let's try for a picture this week of Billie playing with his favorite toy--the one he always makes a rush for when he gets home from school. What is it--a sled, a scooter, an express wagon, or a bicycle? Has he a cowboy's suit? In any case, keep your camera loaded, watch for him at play and snap a picture of him that is characteristic of his play- time hours. Billie will grow up but not his pictures, and you will be glad some day to have him before your eyes, the little boy again at play, just as he was. Remember, the picture you want is his natural self. So don't let him pose or you will more likely get an attempted impersonation of a wooden soldier, not Billie. Remem- ber that he should not be staring di- rectly at the camera when you snap the shutter. Let him be intent on the thing he is doing, otherwise the pic- ture may look as if you had just interrupted him with a scolding and ordered him to stop. Make two or three shots of him doing the par- ticular thing you want the picture of, and try again, if necessary, until you get that quality of naturalness in pose and action that makes the true charm of children's pictures. If you can't visualize a good story- telling picture, you will find innu- merable ideas in magazines, espe- cially those catering to the home or children. It would be quite unusual to thumb through the pages of one of these magazines without finding an advertisement or story from which you would get an idea you can apply to a snapshot in or around the home. Try it and don't forget to. keep a record of the aperture you used and the shutter speed. 79 JOHN VAN GUILDER his horse's head down the valley. Dennison and Zen listened to the pounding of hoofs until it died out in the distance. Then the tremendous, the immeasurable silence of the hills wrapped them all about, folded them in its friendly arms, fondled and caress- ed them on the threshold of their Mew likes me After awhile the moon came up, white and glorious as it had that night so many years before.

More towels are needed for the bathioom, ana the kitchen floor could certainly stand a coat of paint. The children need shoes. The car will soon need tires. Well, we buy a hundred new things every year. Scattcred throughout Canada are manufacturers who make the very things we need. Their products are on sale in certain stores within easy reach. Certain of these products, aad certain of these stores, are espe- cially fitted to take care of our special need. But which products and which stores? Which can we afford, and which do we think best?
