He returns to his Circle L ranch to find his father dead and sinister forces at work, trying to make him violate his parole so that he can again be railroaded to pri- son. CHAPTER 111 Slarbuek nodded, and poked a legal looking envelope lying on the desk. 'Got word yesterday. What ytih almin' to do. Slim?" "Co out to the Circle L an' get to work." "Glad to hear that. Was afraid yuh'd come back with the idee of startiu' trouble. An' that'd be had â€" with yuh on parole." Slim'B lips tightened. 'I ain't ainiin' to turn the other cheek. Jig- ger," he said softly. "Remember, I'm human. Certain folks in this neck of the woods gave me a dirty deal. I ain't exactly gonna kiss 'em when I run into 'em, but I know what that parole means. "At the first sigu of trouble I go back to â€" hell. Well, I aim to do the best I can. But if some folks start Irompin' on my toes, I'll see that they get off. Yuh caln'l blame me for that?" "I ain't blamiu' yuh for nothin', Slim. But my personal feeiin's ain't matterin' one little bit in this. It's the law yo're beholden to. ,So yuh wanta watch yore step." Slim laughed a little harshly. "Yuh still got ice water for blood, ain't yuh'.' Yo're a funny guy, .lig- jer. Sometimes 1 think yo're white, «n' sometimes 1 ain't so shore." Starbuck shrugged without of- fense. "I took my oath lo uiihoiil an' enforce the law. It ain't me to question how it works. 1 aim to do my duty." "Yuh would," reiuited Slim terse- ly, "even if it broke yore own heart ail' ruined yore best friend. Well, I didn't come in here to get into a argh«ient. I was told to report here to yuh every two weeks, and I'll do il â€" for the ne.xt eighteen months. "After that, I'm my own boss •Kafn. An' after eighteen months certain folks in these parts are gon- na lind that a woolly wulf has come back 10 live with 'em. Nobody can steal a year an' a half of my life, blast my reputation, an' gel away with it. Now I'll thank yuh for ray guns. Jigger. I suppose yuh still got 'vm''." DON'T luffer with Stomach mitery.

"But I'd lather yuh wouldn't wear 'em, Slim. They'll be a temptation â€" a bad temptation, as long as they are hangin' on yore hip. If yuh go to throwin' 'em, it's hard tellin' just how yuh'll end up." "That's my pie." said Slim grim- ly. "I want 'em." Starbuck shrugged again, crossed to a little clothes closet and lifted down a pair of cartridge belts, car- rying two heavy, bolstered Colts. He handed them to Slim, who buck- led them about his waist, and he stepped to the door. ".Much oblig- ed, Jigger," he said over his shoul- der. "See yuh two weeks from now." Loyale left the slierift'.s olliee and. started to cross the street. A buck- board was whirling up from the south end of the street, drawn by a fast-stepping pair of bang-tail mus- tangs. A girl was driving it alone, but on either side jogged two mounted men. Slim recognized the trio immediately. The girl was Mona Hall. The two men wore Sarg Brockwell and his sou. Loo. Slim stiffened and he went a lit- tle white about the lips. For a mo- ment his impulse was to pull his hat low over his eyes, lower his head, and hurry across the street. Rut a surgi^ of burning defiance forestalled this truant weakness. So he watched them nuietly, rollins and lighting a cigaretle with a stea- dy hand. They were almost opposite liini l)efore the girl saw him. For a mo- ment she stared. Then with one lithe twist of her slender shoulders, she set tlie bang-tails up short, lock- ed the brake, loopeil the reins about it and jiinipi'd to the ground. She ran to him, li^htfooled as a fawn, a pliant little llgure in khaki blouse and divided skirt. A Greeting Her hair, wliere it escaped in tru- ant tendrils from beneath her dusty Stetson, was crisply brown. Her eyes were blue and lieavily lashed; her nose sliort and straight, her lips generous and soft. And the blood flushed rich in cheeks and throat of a smooth, velvety tan. "Slim I" she exclaimed. "Slim Loyale â€" oh, but it's good to see you!" Slim, a lillle shaky, took both her outstretched, gauntleted hands in his. "Yuh really moan that, ."Vlo- na?" be imiltered huskily. "Mean it?" she cried. "Indeed I do mean it! If you need further convincingâ€" there." Before Slim could think, she had stepped close lo him, risen on her tiptoes and kissed hini. "Satis- fled?" Her smile was a little tre- mulous. For a inunii-nt Slim could not an- swer. "It's worth goln' through hell â€" to come back to heaven," he miilterod Anally. "Mona, yo're a llttlo thoroughbred, same as al- ways. Hut yuh'll be ruiiiln' yore repulalloii, kisstn' an e.x-convict." #- â- # $10 In Prizes For the best Christmas or New Year*8 _^_ Dinner Menu Contest Closes Saturday, Nov. 26th Rules »nd Names of JiidRet Will Be Announced N«xt We«k Watch This Page For Particulars ^' -m Mona stamped one little, booted foot. "Uosh! Dont mention that word to nie again. You are just an iiinoceni man who has gotten a inigbly shady deal. And if I can't ki.«H my old pal hello, I want to know why." "1 â€" I'm glad yuh feel that way about the Innocent part, Mona. Some folks don't agree with yuh." "Other folks be hanged!^' she re- torted spiritedly. "I know you, Slim Loyale, better than anybody else. I ought to; we grew up to- gether. Now let's talk of other things. You'll be going out to the Circle L, I suppose?" Slim nodded. ' Soon as 1 can rustle Up Dakota Blue. He's over ill the Wild Horse Saloon." "Then I want you to come over home and see me this evening, Slim. There's a lot to talk about. You'll come, won't you?" â- 'Try an' keep me away," grinned Slim. "1 reckon I ain't forgot the trail." She gave his hands a squeeze. "That's better," she said softly. "I was afraid you would be changed in some terrible manner. I want to see my old pal. Slim Loyale, not some hard-boiled stranger. Now I'll be getting along. Don't forget â€"seven o'clock." Again her slim, strong little fin- gers tightened. Then she went back to the buckboard, climbed in and kicked off the brake. She wav- ed to him as the broncos broke into a run. Slim watched her until she had halted the rig in front of Ase Lang- ley's big general store and disap- peared from sight through its sha- dowy doorways. Then he sighed deeply and relit his cigarette, which had gone cold during her greeting. Suddenly he remembered the men who had been riding with Mona. When he looked for them, he saw that they had dismounted in front of the Wild Horse Saloon and were just entering it. Slim's lips tightened and his eyes grew bleak. But lie crossed the street and en- tered the place himself. There were just five men in the Wild Horse when Slim entered. Da- kota Blue was there, talking across the bar with Spud Dillon, the short, fat, red-faced proprietor. Then there was old Joe Rooney, a bro- ken-down old mule-skinner who did the swamping for Dillon. Joe was sanding down tlie ones behind the pool table. Sarg Brockwell and his sou had swung up to the bar near the door and Spud Dillon was just moving down toward them when Slim en- tered. But at sight of Slim, Dillon seemed to forget all about the Hrockwells. llis fat, red face broke into a wide, delighted grin and one pudgy hand shot across the bar. (To be Continued) English Co-ed Is A Career Woman Most English Girl Students Go To University for Education, Not Romance Joe Collese and Betty Co-ed in the ''new world" who are back at their university this fall, prob- ably would lie thrilled to tears If their old gas buggy should sprout wings and set them down in an Knulish university instead.

Most Knglish studeiii.^, say those In the know, go to university for an education, not to play around. Studying i.s an all-day job. although In some Institutions you cm get by on three hours' work a week. As for the typical Knglish co-ed, she Is tar different from her Am- erican cousin. Uarely do you find a gorgeous eyeful strolling on the campus. Knglish co-eds are career girls, out to gel an eilucatlonâ€" not a man. .\nyway, Knglishnien still look askance, on co-education, and Knglish universities L'L'.n per cent. The universities don't have the set-up for a boy-meels-girl social life. Kralernitles and sororities do not pxigf. Cold Storage Cabbages Cold storage of cabbages at 31.1 to 30.(1 degrees Fahrenheit has been in use in Germany on a very largo scale since 1931. For some varieties of cabbage, 30.'2 degrees Fahrenheit i.t the lowest limit witljnuk risk of fvcezing, lyul for iither Itlnils 'i'.ft To .iO degrees Fahrenheit. For lengthy storage, relative humidity is SO lo Sfi per cent, .^t the beginning, 70 to 7jj per cent, relative humidity is nrt- vi.'alile for the rapid drying of the outside loaves which act as a protection. Something New and Different And Something f'lew lo Serve There was a young man so be- rii{;ht«d He never knew when he'd been slighted. He'd (CO to a party, And cat jurt as hearty. As though he'd been realiy invit- ed. This was in the days when hos- tesses gave old-fashioned parties to which so many people were in- vited, and so many people attend- ed, that one or two more or less weren't noticed. Unlike many hostesses, we know one lady vsho keeps a list of guests and menus she serves so as never to duplicate a dinner or re- freshments to the same people. So here's a cake which will im- prove the occasion : Harvest Cake with Harvest Moon Frosting. The recipe is new, but not too new. It is popular already with the few hostesses who have tried it. They report that there isn't the slight- est risk of boring even the most jaded taste.

Beat after each addition until smooth. Add vanilla. Bake in greased pan, 8x8x2 inches, in moderate oven (350 degrees F. ) 45 minutes, or until done. Spread with Harvest Moon Frosting.

Fashion Features Bloused Effects Lumber Jackets Popular; Arm- holes Are Wider P.ARIS. â€" New Palis sports cos- tumes, like those for tailored wear, are independent of other style trends, adopting only those ele- ments that are both practical and smart. Bloused effects lend a new silhouette to many winter outfits. Lumber jackets, always sports fa- vorites, are more popular than ever and their bloused fullness is intro- duced into many dres.'e,-;, sweaters, coats and longer jackets for both active and spectator sports wear. Armboles are growing over wider. Dolman or out-and-out kimono sleeves appear even on heavy tweed sports coats and jackets. However, their cut has been carefully studied and gores and gussets cunningly placed to allow complete freedom of movement to the ariii.-s. Narrow Line In Skirts In contrast with bloused tops, many sports skirts maintain a narrow line. The necessary width is achieve') by Inverted or box pleats which begin high enough to give tho knees free play. Straight split skirts seem to be fading out of the sports picture; variations on the kilt theme are oupplanting them; these are being featured by all the leading Paris couturiers. Hindu Women Are Deserting Many Leave Husbands to Join Monasteries, Says Journal .•\ widespread movement among married women which in many ways paralielj 'one in early Budd- hist limes, wlion masses of women abaniloiu'd their husbands to take to monastic life. i.-» discussed with alarm by the Indian Social Reform- er, weekly journal of opinion, of Honibay. The Oin Mandal is the name of the most conspicuous of these •monasteries for revolted married women." It l.-t located in north- we.stern India, with headquarters in Ilyderal)a(l (Sind). branches in Ka- rachi and olier places, says the New York Sun. Husbands Picket "The latest." the above journal reports, "is that the husbands of the devotees have taken to picket- ing the Oni Mandal premises in ap- proved passive resistance fashion, they are there early in the morn- ing and prevent their wives enter- ing the sanctuary.
