Ri "_ Thuroday, September 13, 1934 "The Tragic King: Richard 111", by Philip Lindsay (R. McBride Co., New York). The average reader picâ€" tures Richard as the monster préâ€" sented in Shakespear‘s fiery drama, and the student‘s impression is gotâ€" ten by important biographers, whose versions have been accepted as authentic down through the ages. After four hundred years, the supâ€" posed bones of the two Princes whom Richard is eaid to have murdered were examined, and once more the Royal Commission confirms the old story. Mr. Lindsay, the noted invesâ€" tigator of this period, after an exâ€" haustive study of available | mateâ€" rials, refutes the old theories, and cites ample proof that Richard was a kindly, loveable Monarch, and by comparing dates and "facts" given by former chroniclers, shows a mulâ€" tiplicity of contradictions that are bewildering but convicing. Apart from the important study of Richard and the crimes attributed to him, the book gives vivid pictures of the Wars of the Roses and other histoâ€" rical events of the Age of Chivalry. A book of exceptional merit, and thoroughly enjoyable. "Heirs of Mrs. Willingdon", by Mathilde Eiker, (Doubleday Doran & Gundy, Toronto). dJulia Willingâ€" don has been a power in her life, and â€" defied conventions as she pleased. When she died, her stepson and stepdaughter were to inherit the trust fund which had been left to Julia, his second wife, during her life time. The old scandal of Julia living with her chauffeur was once more reviewed with fusto and when the stepdaughter announced she had engaged this same chauffeur, there is allâ€"round consternation. A bright and snappy story, vividly describing human foibles, and intensely inâ€" teresting. Literary Notes FEEL, LOOK and ACT buoyant spirit of youth through foe our bodies.

With her youthful husband, who is in poor healtch, and their smail son, David, they come to Arizona to take up where Ruth‘s brother, reported killed in Mexico, had left off. They reach Dead Lantern, 85 miles from the nearest rallroad, with the help of Old _ Charley â€" Thane, â€" neighboring rancher who also carries the rural mail. At the ranch they find the partner, Snavely, and a huge woman, Indian Ann, who greet them suspiâ€" clously. As they trudge the 5 miles from rach gate to the house they pass a huge rock in a gulch where a voice whispers, "Go hack. Go back." Ruth‘s husband caught in a rain shortly after their arrival contracts pneumonia and pakses away before medical aid can be ‘brought. Ruth, penniless and without friends atâ€" tempts to carry on but is balked at almost every turn by the crafty and plotting Snavely. Despite obstacles of all kind Ruth gives notes on her ranch interest to purchase cattle. She is assisted by Old Charkey Thane and his son, Will Thane. A Mexican {amily has been hired to assist with the work. A peculiar sickness deâ€" velops with the livestock. Snavely calls it "Hver fever" . . . and says he has a powder for the water to cure the disease, Ruth‘s whole fuâ€" ture is at stake on the development of the herd to meet her notes followâ€" ing the finst roundâ€"up. While she and David were on their way to the ranch house they were evertaken by (the breathless Alfredo. "Senora â€" please! The little house has been finished these two weeks. Is it not good that my dove and I and also the good Don Francisco â€"w«hould enter on this next Saturâ€" day Ruth guessed more from Alfredo‘s manner than from his words the naâ€" ture of his request, and she gladly encouraged him, not forgetting to mention the pfiest and the license. Alfredo assured herâ€" that everyâ€" thing would be in order, He had heard that a priest was visiting Palo Verde and had learned that one of the Mexicans from that place had a Fordâ€"possessing â€" friend who would, no doubt, be glad to go to town for the ficense. Had she dumped a keg of gold coins among them, Ruth could not have created more joyous excite ment. Ruth_ told Snavely of the celebraâ€" tion. He had come into the kitchen on‘ Friday. morning while she and Ann were baking pies and she had teold him almost blithely. The grim old cattleman had merely looked at herâ€" one steady glance which brought a catoh of fear to her heart. Then he had left without a word. Later she had seen him riding away on his favorite horse, a blanket roll behind his sadde. _ It would have been impossible for him to stay in the â€" vicinity of â€" the â€" celebrators. Probably he camped near some disâ€" tant watering place; he did not reâ€" turn until Monday.

Old Charkey and Will arrived with Juana, Juana‘s wife, in the ancient automobile. Every one was dressed as they felt the spirlt of the Occaâ€" sion demanded. When the line was formed at dinâ€" ner time the youns man who was dominated by the green shirt went to the aid of the solitary celebrator and brought him back so that he whould not go hungry.

They stayed up u% ten fitting Magda with a wedd dressâ€"a dress, worn not so long ago, by a proudâ€"eyed bride in a little hurch on the outskirts of Philadel phia. Ruth noticed that nearly every one looked, sooner or later, toward the gulch. Once or twice, also, she saw a mother or futher bring back some youngster who had wandered near the fence.

We can wake ‘em up toâ€"morrow or next day." « few of the male guests came forti fied with refreshments. uing Mexicans. The wife of Don Francisco‘s cousin from Palo Verde was in charge of the pies. All was silent save the occasional crack of a bone under Don Francisco‘s ax and the munching and satisfied grunts of the eaters.

Alfredo and the man with the blue sash were falking loudly, face to face, and every one was watching. Snddenly, the man ewept off his big hat with Ais left hand and crouched low. Ruth, who in spite of Old Charâ€" ley had »stopped to watch through the window saw a knife glint in his right â€" hand, _ Alfredo, â€" also, _ now crouched, knife in hand, with his hat held out as a shield..

Ruth went to greet him and found that he could not speak a word of English. He was fat, dirty, stupid, and the least interesting of her guests. "When shatl the marriage be?" asked Ruth as Alfredo came listlessâ€" ly up to the ranch house porch about three o‘clock. Aifredo shrugged; his face was pitiful. "The papers have not come," he said mournfully, looking down the road. "What in thunder wil we do?" Old Charley appealed to Ruth. "We‘ve got the bride, the groom, the priest, the music and the audience. The priest knows enough not to marry ‘em without a license." {,a.ter that day Ruth wrote in her notebook: "The wedding was solemnâ€" ized on the front porch of the bride and groom‘s future home. The bride wore a beautiful veil of old Spanish lace, a handsome gown of white satin with a large shawl draped tastefully about the shoulders. The ensemble was strikingly set off by a pair of red pumps. The groom wore the conâ€" ventional black corduroys." Ruth frowned thoughtfuly. "Do you suppose the priest can read Engâ€" thing." "Wait a minute!" Ruth entered the house and reâ€" turned shortly with a roll of parchâ€" ment tied with a blue ribbon. She unrolled the crackling paper, and exâ€" hibited it gilently to Old Charley and Will It had a beautiful red seal. Ruth‘s last memory of that day, as che slipped into eleep, was the sound of guitars, mandolins, a flute and a violin from the direction of the new litt® adobe. The music was being played with steadfast purpose, as though it would «till be playing when she awoke. And she could hear, dim and afar off, a long quavering yell of some happy mortal on a hilltop. "Say. you‘re a wonder!" Will turned to his father. "Now what do you say a college diploma is good for, hey? At eight 6‘clock Bavid was tucked in his cot and Ruth sat near, reading, for the thousandth time, a tale of the ‘Coon and the ‘Possum and the Old Black Crow. Ann knocked at the door and her voice was heavy with anxiety. "Youâ€" wll ain‘t got Sugarfoot in there, has you*‘ Ruth went to the door, "Wihy, no. He isn‘t loose, is he?" The giantess nodded dully. "The rope is untied off his collar." The girl caught her breath and turned. "David! Did you untie Sugarâ€" foot ?" The tone of her voice caused David to answer dubiously, "Wellâ€"sort of you see, Mama, he wanted to play bear and I just thought I would fet Him, so . . ." Ann was lighting a lantern. She hurried out of the back screen door. "Se if he might be down at Al fredo‘s," caleld Ruth with an effort at cheerfulness. The giantess did not answer.

On the other side of the barn she could see Ann‘s lantern moving slowly through the bushes near | where the poison had ‘been placed. Ruth did not like to leave David alone in the house, but she decided \to help Ann gearch. dog, but said nothing more, That aftâ€" ernoon Ann had asked her for the rest of the poison which, together with the box containing the remaing of the liver fever medicine, she had locked in her trunk after her disas trous mistake, She had given Ann the poison which the glantess then placed in the carcass left over from the barbecue. The coyotes were beâ€" coming too numerous around the home ranch and Ann wished to thin their ranks. Sugarfoot was to have been kept tied during the night to keep him from the meat. She had reentered the house and was lighting another fantern when a slight, familiar sound turned her rigid. She had reentered the house and was lighting another lantern when a slight, familiar sound turned her riâ€" gid. The sound came again; a low whine and a scratching on the screen door. It was Sugarfoot. As Ruth held the door open, the little dog walked «leepily inside, and, going to Ann‘s door, sat down and yawned. It was «s though, peacefully asleep on his #ack by the woodpile, he had become cold and had risen in the hope of a farmer bed in Ann‘g room. Carrying Sugarfoot into the living room, Ruth lit the lamp. The little dog «tood before the fireplace, his whort legs widely spread and his sides distended almost to bursting. He looked sleepy and wonderfully content. Ruth knelt down and prodâ€" ded him with her finger. He was as tight as a drum. Ann came in panting and dropped by the dog. Sugarfoot licked ‘her hand and strove to wag his taillessâ€" ness; but such exercise is fatigning ufter a hearty meal. Ruth picked the dog up in her arms and ran outside. "Ann! Oh, Ann!‘" The moving light beyond the barn suddenly stopped. "Here he is, Ann‘! He‘s alive!" The lantern beâ€" gan to move violently. "He certainly doesn‘t seem sick," sald Ruth. "No. He et the meat though his tracks is all around." (Continued Next Week) PARTRIDGE SEASON Very littie game is expected to fall at the hands of the hunter this fall, according to some enthusiastie supporters of the rifle. Since the government banned the use of the dog in deer hunts, the number of these sportsmen to go north has fallen off. Further, the regulation which decrees that all shooting of wild ducks from a decoy surroundâ€" ed ‘hide‘ must be done from the shore. In order to induce the sportsâ€" men to go north, the local enthuslast stated that an open season on the pantridge is likely to eoincide with the deer season this year.
