Tribute* P*id To W. R. Smith. The town council held its regular meeting on Monday evening with Acting Mayor Samuel L Shelton presiding. Communications included the application from Murray Manzer for the position of town clerk. A number of accounts were read. The reports of committees presented by the committee chairman, mostly rec­ ommended the payment of accounts. > Councillor Manzer enquired regard­ ing the Wonham street bridge, and was informed by Councillor Smart that as soon as parts for the cables were ready the work would be pro­ ceeded -with and it shoudl be finished in about 10 days. A number of accounts were Or­ dered p*id on motion presented by members of committees they con­ cerned. It was moved by W. E. Manzer and seconded by Leo J. Kirwin, “That Acting Mayur Shelton be paid out of Mayor jH. D. McCarty’s pay­ ments of the Hydro Commission, 137.50, for so many meeting. Chair­ man Buchanan of the Public Utilities Commission, waa present at the meet­ ing and explained that while he be­ lieved Mr. Shelton was entitled to the amount it was impossible for the commission to comply with the mo­ tion of the council as they had no power in the matter, the salary being fixed according to law by the Ontario Hydro Electric Power Commission. Thefe was much dwemwion on the matter before the motion was fin­ ally passed and it was amended to read that the matter be referred to the Ontario Hydro Commisaion. It was moved by Manzer and seconded by Morgan that the resig­ nation of Town Clerk W. R. Smith, be accepted to take effect on Janu­ ary 2nd, 1934, and in view of the fact Mayor MeCarty being away and that the newly elected Mayor J. M. Wilson has not taken office, we rec­ ommend that the question of an hon­ orarium be left over to the meeting of the new council of 1934. James King applied in person to the council for relief work and was given the assurance his case would be looked into- Acting Mayor Shelton reported that the matter of grants for relief work had been settled satisfactorily by the government when they were interviewed recently by Mayor-Elect Wilson and himself. Several spoke in appreciative terms of the services of Town Clerk Smith, and expressed the hope that he might be spared to enjoy a long earned rest. Mr. Smith replied to the words of the several speakers in reference to J himself. THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE. THURSDAY DEC. 21,1933 ■ CM M 4*, U. 8. A., 12.00 VOL. XL VIL—NO. Memorial Service Held For General Currie THE INGE- SOU TRIBI M "The Man With the Oil Can" W« Subject of Address. President Fred H. Ad*ms Occupied Choir. REV. J. W. MAGWOOD W AT K1WANIS Mr*. W . R. Veale Hostes* To Missionary Circle Mrs. W. R. Vaale, Thames street south, was hoetcaa to members of the Missionary Circle of King's Daugh­ ters, on Thursday afternoon, Decem­ ber 14th, for their regular monthly meeting, which was one of the most largely attended of the year. The meeting opened with the sing­ ing of a hymn and prayer, and Bible reading by Met C, Pearson. The vice- leader, Mra H. A. Copeland occupied the chair. The King’s Daughters' ad­ mix® on service was then held and three new members wane welcomed into the Circle. Rev. J. WK Magwood, minister of Central United Church, Woodstock, addressing the membera'of the Ing­ ersoll Kiwania Club, at their weekly luncheon on Friday, spoke on the subject, "The Man with the Oil Can.” Many fine thoughte were brought out by the speaker in the course of his fine address. He was introduced by president Fred H. Adams, who acted as the luncheon chairman. In opening his remarks Rev. Mr. Magwood stated that a squeaking street car door brought forth a man .with an oil can upon a certain occas­ ion. The man had carried the small can for just such .little difficulties. After an application of the oil, the door ceased to annoy both himself and the other posaengera. From this homely incident, the speaker said he had contrived to take a ksson which might appy in more broad and human manner. The speaker felt that there were not enough genuine expressions of appreciation as men and women pass through life. The wife, who toiled at home, met with all too few of them. A kiss on parting in the morning meant much more to the good wife than one when the man came home at night, as the latter one might so rearily be miscon­ strued. This was the first of numer­ ous tittles touches of humor which brought the speaker’s audience into a closer understanding of his subject. As a minister, Mr. Magwood said he knew there wa* lack of apprecia- no inv vircie. ttiioonn.. T1HhbB WWMM a* lcuoimnumivoin undereUnd- Mra. F, N.

Christm as hocolates Smiles ’n Chuckles West Oxford Ladies Aid Elect Tbeir Officers The Annual Banquet of the Jun­ ior Women’s Institute and Junior Farmers of the Ingereoll district, held in the Sunday School room of the Ingeyioll Baptist Church, was an out­ standing suedess and was very largely • 'attended. An appetizing banquet supper was served to the large gathering by memberBrof the Excelsior Girls’ Class of the Baptist Church Sunday School which was thoroughly enjoyed. Miss Dorothy Spencer acted as toostmlstreM for the evening and most ably presided over the pro- ■ gram. The toart to the King was re- - eponded to by singing the National I Anthem. The toast to the guesta was I proposed by Miss Elva German and I responded to i®r G. R Green, the , agricultural representative for Ox- ! ford County. The "Journal", a par- 1 ticularly amusing and interesting one 1 was read by Miss Audrey Spencer. 1 The toast to the Junior Institute ! was proposed by Cecil Riddle, and ; responded to by Mins Margaret Shel- I ton. The toagt to the Junior Farmers I was proposed by Mrs. Roy Gordon and responded to by Gordon Sandick. A vocal solo by Miss Nellie Hutchl- i son and a reading by Miss Grace Mil- ' lard were both much appreciated numbers on the very fine program. 1 Miss Mildred Armstrong officated as i pianist for the evening, giving gen- ; erously of her talent Misa Edith Collins, a representative of the Ontario Depart of Agricul­ ture, guest speaker for the evening, captivated her large audience with a particularly delightgul address. Her message contained some extremely beautiful thoughts given in a most feeling manner; it contained a num­ ber of items that were delightfully amusing and witty, and a sparkling humor that could emanate only one who has given her best in living, and given a great deal of it for others. Miss Collins was introduced by Mis? Dorothy Spencer. She firat entertained her hearers with a number of delightful remind sccnses of her early days in Oxford County for which place she said she had a great love. The speaker went on to say that the work which the farmers and In­ stitute members are doing is bigger than they can estimate. The work is growing larger and larger, and so the members will in time put over a program that will be an asset to the county. 'To get an education with which to do and accomplish this work,” said Miss Collins, “is like building a > ladder. You must know how. Some ladders are treacherous, but I urge you all to build good substantial ones. And ladders you must remem­ ber are built with uprights. Some lad­ ders are high and some are low, and people climb up two steps and then sit down on them. Remember too that the higher you climb the more you can' see. Take advantage of the opportunities you have about you and so build your ladder well .

Many of you I suppose wish you 'had the sense to get away from it all.1 Many of you no doubt say that you hate the whole thing. But it would be well for those to pause and think of -the story of Moses and the burning bush—Moses who1 took time to pause and turn aside and see and learn the mesaage that God gave him from the burning bush—that which was close to the ground. 1 "And so often the thing that looks humdrum will have God in it and I art you to look for God in it. Why did He put such wonderful pro­ vision in the world and in the earth, there in the land if He did not in­ tend us to make the best use of it? Work hand in hand with God. Don’t despise these apparently insignificant things." Miss Collins went on to tell in her beautifully descriptive manner of some of the beauties of the estate of Jack Miner, and of the commen­ cement of this work of his, which was so small and insignificant, and which has prooved to be so big end good. The speaker followed up with a most intensely interesting description of two trips to Niagara Falls, one made many yeora ago, in the days of horses and cutters, and one made only recently, when she visited the famous Cave of the Winds. She told of the way in which the guide had taken his party over the sidewalk that led through the cave, and how he had explained that it was safe, being re-built every year. Afer many very exciting thrills, the speaker said that she wondered as she emerged into the sunshine from vast rushing and down-pouring water, what had possessed them to go into such a place, a place that held danger, and excitement and adven­ ture, but that held too, wonderful beauty. "But I remembered that the side­ walk was safe, and that our guide was there to lead ua, and all we had to do was follow. That is tike life. There was One who came to earth and he laid a path for our feet. He made the commonplace beautiful and the beautiful commonplace. To me seeing that wonderful sight in the cave, water became beauty, refreeh- ment, glory and power. "But all elements were against this Christ and finally He cried out asking His Father not to forsake Him. And so it may be with you. Thia is your big day. And -after a while the darkness will disappear and jou will come out as we did in the cave, into the sunshine," said the t peaker. ■“It is a baffling time for *11 of n*. People are looking for hope and leadership everywhere. Th a world is in a bad irtate of affliction. Some people, even young people, cry out and that what is wanted is a war. But that is no way to settle things. We do not want war.

Mr. Green expressed his thanks and appreciation to the gathering in a delightful way, although it was quite evident that he was greatly surprised. After the singing of the National Anthem, the members adjourned to the L. 0. L. hall where dancing was enjoyed, concluding a moat happy evening for all.

That young clerk had promise in every other way but this attitude toward customers. They are often discharged for this very thing. There was a day, probably, when the customer had to accept things as be found them—make his purchase with no hope of exchange, u the select­ ion had been his—but today, the cua- Jpmer is always right.” The speaker mid appreciation and courtesy and good manners were urgently required in political life.

Under the present order of things, a man to no sooner crowned at the head of the country than they begin to shoot him. There will bo differences of opinions among great men and leaders always, but they can be expressed with good will and common courtesy,” said Mr. Magwood. The speaker explained that he had read Hanford for a considerable time —not all of it—but sufficient to keep him In touch with the trend of affairs there. Because of this prac­ tice he could name the really great men cited therein. They were evi­ dent fay the manner in which they handled themselves on the questions of the times. As against them there were others whoea apparent object WM but to fill page after page with their efforts at speeches, and whom he considered but cheap politician*. Th* BpeaksriH opinion was that the chief object of a political party was to shoot the other fellow—to harangue and harass. It was suggest­ ed that one who could get up on a platform and talk and discuss public matters in some kind of • belittling ■way, often felt that he was a God- ■ent man, whereas be was nothing more than a d*vil-sent man. Mr; Magwood told of an experience of hin own which IBustrated tha point.

F. 4 A. M., Port Miss Maude Watterworth, A»*i»t*d la Sunday Afternoon Program At Baptist Church. Other Leading And Wood• tuck Artiita Aleo Took Part. A program of high merit was en­ joyed to the fullest extent by a capa­ city audience that crowded the Inger­ soll Baptist Church, on Sunday afternoon for the Twilight Musicale. A most picturesque setting was ar­ ranged for the affair and the quiet, tiphu^ried manner of presentation was both very pleasing to the aud­ ience, for it created a fitting and ap­ propriate atmosphere for such offer­ ings. The background of Christinas greens, the candelight effects, and the Christmas homa as depicted in the miniature setting in the back­ ground of the choir loft, all had their places in the decoration a Th© choir merribere in their black and white vestments, and the mem­ bers of the Woodstock Y. W. C. A. Glee Club in their white gowns, presented a beautiful picture fot' the audience. The subdued lighting effects for the various numbers was also most appropriate. Miss Maude Waterworth, a former Ingersoll girl and prominent Toron­ to Harpist, was featured on the pro­ gram, and her numbers simply capti­ vated the large audience. She con­ tributed to the program four solos, ‘tilemories“ (Hahn); the well-known /and muchloved ‘'Barcarolle” (Offen- bach); "BaDad” (Haffermann) and “The Music Box” (Poenltz). The choir numbers, with Mre Beatrice White McKinney conducting in finished style were “In a stable lowly" (King), “Sanctus” (with solo part by George Jonas) and “Benedic­ tus,” the latter two offerings by the famous composer Gounod. All three numbers were well given by the choir. The accompaniment was beautiful, with Miss Doris Bagnall at the organ and Mias Edith Making at the piano. They also accompan­ ied for the closing number, “Silent Night" hy choir and congregation. An enjoyable offering on the pro­ gram was “The Lost Chord" (Sulli­ van) by the" ladies of the Ingersoll Baptist church choir. The harmony in this offering was splendid, the various parts blending with great beauty. Organ and piano accom­ paniment was used for this number, also giving a rich and mellow under­ tone. Solo numbers on the program In­ cluded a beautiful rendition of “Song of the Chimes," by Mtia Alice Bow­ man, soprano, of Ingersoll; "Christ­ mas Chimes" -by Miss Gertrude Spence, soprano, of Woodstock, and 1 From Galilee a Mother came,” by Mrs. L. Argent, contralto, of Wood- stock. These two latter numbers were also very lovely and well presented. Miss Edith Making accompanied for these numbers. Two pleasing numbers were given by the Y. W. C. A. Glee Club of Woodstock. The blending of the voices in these offerings was also very fine, and the numbers were very sweet. “Listening Angels”, (Stainer), was the first offering and “Midnight Stillness Sweetly Reigns," their second offering, in the latter, three contralto solos being beautiful- ly given. Mre McKinney conducted for these numbers also, with Louise Nesbitt McLean of Woodstock, at the piano. At the close of the program, those taking part were entertained at tea served by the Ladies’ Auxiliary of the church. Group Eight Trinity W. A-Met at Mn. r. Wade’s M m b era of group eight of Trin­ ity United Church Women's Asso­ ciation held the final meeting for the year on Thursday afternoon, at the homo of Mrs, Frank Wade, Hall street. There wa* a full attendance and the afternoon was much enjoyed by all. Mrs. Wade had -decorated her home with lovely -Christmas articles for this meeting and a fine Xmas tree added tto the spirit of the occasion. This was loaded with gifts donated by the members, which were examin­ ed at this time, and which will be donated to the Eng’s Daughters for distribution in ttheir Christmas cheer baskets. Miao Mae Waters rendered two beautiful vocal solos and Mrs. F. P. Leake contributed two very fine Christmas readings. The hostess was assisted during the social hour by Mrs. Porter, Mrs. H. I. Steuart and Mre H. F. Glasser. At the close of the meeting, “Holy Night” was sung. Anglican Boy’s Are Church League y Basketball Champs A large number of fans saw an exciting encounter nrursdaty even­ ing at the Triangle Club Gymnasium, when the Anglican boys met the United boys in the final play-off for the championship of the Inter-Church Basketball League. Both teams were at full strength and In the pink of condition. The game started slowly, each man watching his opponent very closely. The Anglicans were the efirst to score from a free-ehot and held a lead of one point for the first part of the game. In the last 10 minutes of the first half, however, the United's long .passing began to click and they forged steadily ahead The Hargan-Ted Carr combination got going and Hargan scored 3 bas­ kets. Three minutes from half time Roddy twisted his ankle and was out of the game for the evening. John­ ston substituted and thoroughly jus­ tified his inclusion in the team. Half­ time score. United 13; Anglicans, 6. The second half was even more keenly contested than the opening half, and the Anglicans, showing that dogged spirit that they always exhibit in church league encounters in any sport, refused to be denied. Slowly but surely, point by point, they reduced their opponents lead, until they tied the score at 14-14. The excitement wap so intense, the spectators so enthusiastic, that the referee had difficulty in making either his whistle or voice heard above the din. Amid the jubilant cheera and shrieks of the Anglican fans, Warren Cook scored a basket to put his aide one point ahead. The United boys, not to be easily denied, renewed the pressure and their hopes ran high as two free shot* were awarded them. These were fruit!res, and the opportunity was lost, for the whistle sounded for “time” and the final result was Anglicans Id, United 15. , The Anglicans thus confirmed their standing at the head of the league, and an inter-church title is safely tucked away for another season.

O.F., Ingersoll on Wednesday evening, December 13th. The affair was largely attend­ ed and visitors were present from London, Kintore and Oxford Centre. The address by Mr. 'Fergusson was very intereating and instructive. He pointed out that under present day conditions it is necessary to fight and boost, and make sacrifices in lodge work a* it is necessary to do these things in private and business life. When doing this he said, the mem­ bers Would only he doing their duty to the lodge to which they belong. But in addition to helping the Todge, tas members would be benefiting the community in which they live. The speaker said that it is an easy matter for anyone to boost and praise when sucoem and prosperity is staring him in the face but that the true spirit of mankind is shown to the best advantage by the one who fights a good fight and true, when despair and defeat are the only things in the look-out of his efforts. He who has this true spirit smiles and carries on, while things look gloomy and black as they do at the present time. If *U would do this, said the speaker'if all would put shoulders to the wheel then success will be bound to follow. Mr. Fergusson asked his lodge brothers to do these things, to set an example to others in these diffi­ cult times. He expressed thanks to the various lodges in the district for the splendid inception given him on the occasions of his official virita in the districts and hoped that hfa suc­ cessor would receive the same court­ esy that had been given him. He also extended the compliments of the season to all present. The officers installed for the en­ suing term by the D. D. G. M., were as follows. P.N.G-J. Hubbard. N.G.—John Borland. V.G.— Mrs. G.

John Borland, the Nloble Grand, thanked the members for the honor of the appointment they had given him, and expressed the wish that he might have the full co-operation of all the officers and members for the new term. He felt that it would be a difficult task to follow Joseph Hub­ bard who had filled this office so ably in the past year and who could report a one hundred per cent atten­ dance during his term of office.

F. & A. M., Port TWILIGHT MUSICALE EN­JOYED BY LARGE CROWD Miss Maude Wakierwerth, Assisted In Sunday Afternoon Program At Baptist Church. Other Leading And Woodstock Artists Also Took Part. A program of high merit was en­ joyed to the fullest extent by a capa­ city audience that crowded the Inger­ soll Baptist Church, on Sunday afternoon for the Twilight Musicale. A moot picturesque setting was ar­ ranged for the affair and the quiet, tfrhufTied manner of jiresentation waa both very pleasing to th© aud­ ience, for it created a fitting and ap- propriate atmosphere for such offer­ ings. The background of Christmas greens, the candelight effects, and the Christmas homa as depicted in the miniature setting in the back­ ground of the choir loft, all had their places in the decorations. The choir members in their black and white vestments, and the mem­ bers of the Woodstock Y. W. C. A. Glee Club in their white gowns, presented a beautiful picture fori the audience. The subdued lighting effects for the various numbers was also most appropriate. Miss Maude Waterworth, a former Ingersoll girl and -prominent Toron­ to Harpist, was featured on tbe pro- gram- Mnd her numbers simply capti- v«t«d the large audience. She con- trputed to the program four aok», ’Memories” (Hahn); the well-known /and muchloved ''Barcarolle” (Offen­ bach) ; "Ballad” (Haffermann) and "Tha Music Box” (Poenltz). The choir numbers, with Mrs. Beatrice White McKinney conducting in finished style were “In a stable lowly” (King), "Sanctus” (with solo part by George Jonas) and “Benedic­ tus,” the latter two offerings by the famouD composer Gounod- All three numbers were well given by the choir. The accompaniment was beautiful, with Miss Doris Bagnall at the organ and Mias Edith Making at the pdano. They also accompan­ ied for the closing number, “Silent Night” by choir and congregation. An enjoyable offering on the pro­ gram was "The Lost Chord” (Sulli­ van) by the‘lathes of the Ingersoll Baptist church choir. The harmony in this offering was splendid, the various parts blending with great beauty. Organ and piano accom­ paniment was wed for this number, ■Iso giving a rich and mellow under­ tone. Solo numbers on the program in­ cluded a beautiful rendition of “Song of the Chimes," by Miss Alice Bow­ man, soprano, of Ingersoll; “Christ­ mas Chimes” by Miss Gertrude Spence, soprano, of Woodstock, and ‘ From Galile© a Mother came,” by Mrs. L. Argent, contralto, of Wood- stock. These two latter numbers were also very lovely nnd well presented. Miss Edith Making accompanied for these numbers. Two pleasing numbers were given by thu Y. W. C. A. Glee Club of Woodstock. The blending of the voices in these offerings was also very fine, and the numbers were very Bwset “Listening Angela", (Stainer), was the first offering and "Midnight Stillness Sweetly Reigns," their second offering, in the latter, three contralto solos being beautiful­ ly given, Mra. McKinney conducted for these numbers also, with Louise Nesbitt McLean of Woodstock, at the piano. At the close of the program, thone taking part were entertained at tea served by the Ladies' Auxiliary of the church.

Anglican Boy’s Are Church League y Basketball Champs A large number of fans saw an exciting encounter Thursday even­ ing atithe Triangle Club Gymnasium, when the Anglican boys met the United boys in the final play-off for the championship of the Inter-Church Basketball League. Both teams were at full strength and in the pink of condition. The game started slowly, each man watching h» opponent very closely. The Anglicans were the first to score from a free-shot and hold a lead of one point for the first part of the game- In the last 10 minutes of the fieri: half, however, the United's long passing began to click and they forged steadily ahead The Hargan-Ted Carr combination got going and Hargan scored 3 bas­ kets. Three minutes from half time Roddy twisted his ankle and was out of the game for the evening. John­ ston substituted and thoroughly jus­ tified his inclusion in the team. Half­ time score, United 13; Anglicans, 6. The second half was even more keenly contested than the opening half, and the Anglicans, showing that dogged spirit that they always exhibit in church league encounters in any sport, refused to be denied. Slowly but surely, point by point, they reduced their opponents lead, until they tied the score at 14-14. The excitement wsp so intense, the spectators BO enthusiastic, that the referee had difficulty in making either his whistle or voice heard above the din. Amid the jubilant cheers and shrieks of the Anglican fans, Warren Cook scored a basket to put his side one point ahead. The United boys, not to be easily denied, renewed the pressure and their hopes ran high os two free abate were awarded them. These were fruitless, and the opportunity was lost, for the whistle sounded for “time” and the final result was Anglicans 16, United 16. The Anglicans thus confirmed their standing at the head of the league, and an inter-church title is safely tucked away for another season. Line-up:— Anglicans (16)—Ben Sheldon, 6; Warren Cook, 3; Bill Roddy, Fred Sheldon, 2; Jim Scott, 1; Gordon Johnston. United—16 Tied Carr, 3; Fred Miller 2; Howard Carr, 2; Alan Hargan, 6; J.

O- O.F., Ingersoll on Wednesday evening, December 13th. The affair was largely attend­ ed and visitors were present from London, Kintore and Oxford Centre. T%e address by Mr. Fergusson was very intereating and instructive. He pointed out that under present day conditions it is necessary to fight and boost, and make sacrifices in lodge work as it is necessary to do these things in private and business life. When doing this he said, the mem­ bent Would only be doing their duty to the lodge to which they belong. But in addition to helping the lodge, the membera would be benefiting the community in which they live. The speaker said that it is an easy matter for anyone to boost and praise when BUCCCBS and prosperity is staring him in the face but that the true spirit of mankind is shown to the best advantage by the one who fights a good fight and true, when despair and defeat are the only things in the look-out of his efforts. Ha who has this true spirit smiles and carries on, while things look gloomy and black as they do at the present time. If ell would do this, said the speaker'if all would put ahouldere to the wheel then success will be bound to follow. Mr. Fergusson asked his lodge brothers to do these things, to set an example to others in there diffi­ cult times. Ho expressed thanks to the various lodges in the district for the splendid ®aceptlttn given him on the occasions of his official visits in the districts and hoped that his suc­ cessor would receive the same court­ esy that had been given him. He also extended the compliments of the season to all present. The officers installed for the en­ suing term by the D. D. G. M., ware as follows. P.N.G—J. Hubbard. N.G.-—John Borland. V.G.—Mrs. G.

John Borland, the Noble Grand, thanked the members for the honor of the appointment they had given him, and expressed the wish that he might have the full co-operation of all the officera and members for the new term. He felt that it would be a difficult task to follow Joseph Hub- hard who had filled this office so ably in the past year and who could report ■ one hundred per cent, atten­ dance during hia term of office. Short addresses were heard from a number of the members including James Calder, N.G., Kin tore Lodge; Frank G. Jackson, Oxford Centre; Mr. and Mrs- Robert Smith, Oxford Centre, P.G., W, J.

Well, forget it right now I Dad's lost more than one gun in his time—as a matter of fact, he was forced to give ope or two of ’em away. Sure, I can get you one. But say, carry on but i* balked at almoat every turn by the crafty and plotting Snavely. Despite obataclea of all kind Ruth gives notes on rith the NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Mr. Martin gazed thoughtfully at the ceiling above Ruth’s head. Pres­ently he asked, “Did this man know that you were the only beneficiary of your brother’s will?” - >^He didn't even know about rne un- tilT came to the ranck I suppose after We'd talked he found out there was no one else—I told him my xhare was three-quarters. He read the will, too.”"Then I think we might attempt to solve the riddle in this manner; the man may have thought that since you were rather new to ranching he could perhaps encourage you to sell him Sour interest—" Ruth nodded con­ nnation, and Mr. Martin continued: "He could have given you a cash pay­ ment for your holdings, and you might have gone away, assuming that every­thing had come to a satisfactory con­ clusion.”Ruth hesitated. "Has my so-called partner committed any crime in not telling me that I had no rights at the place?"Tiie lawyer nursed his lips. "No to any one wiiat hi* motives were.” “What ought I to dor" asked Ruth.. _ “I think, if I were you, I should tell him that you have consulted an atior- / ney and that you intend to have the V will probated. Once that has been ad- VI jutted, I do not believe anything fur- J ther will be done; except, of course, the selling of the ranch and the divi­sion of the proceed* according to both your interests." “Oh." Ruth smiled uncertainly as she stood up. “That’s a relief. I think I’ll be going now. I'll decide later just what I want to do. What do 1 owe , yon for your advice?"^^m YrAfartin smiled slightly. "You owe me‘nothing—but here is my card. I rather teeMUSt-We,shall meet again." . She found David and* Will, writing st the machine. During the rest of the afternoon, which was *;>cnt at * moving picture show, and later al dinner, Rutil's mind was busy. It was •naddening, that the first time she had •n able io leave the ranch and en- •self, she could think of nothing ranch. She imagined that Will notice her preoccupied man- t 'S(k/ught was easy in 1he ed reflaurant. humming with the < and laughter of many people, wenty mile* out of town—the er throbbing into a wall of ■KM which never lifted—Ruth'* in her imaginary conversation Snavely became les* aggressive, the time the car was entering the q cast of the barn, Ruth had doubts about saying anything, ‘•r, to Suavely.

Here”—Will drew a re­volver from UK pocket of the car— "keep this until I see you again.”Ruth took the gun without much urging. She stood watching while he turned the car about. He leaned from the scat, "Well see you next week— good night,"As she answered, Ruth saw the slowly moving lights swing toward the gulch, and gasped; Snavely was standing near the fence, partly con­ cealed by a bush.She ran back to the house. ^Vhat had Snavely been doing in the vicinity of the gulch? As she stood on the dark porch Ruth suddenly decided to find Ann. She knocked on the giantess' door.After a moment Ann slowly opened it. A low-turned lamp burned in the room. She had uken off her *h-'es and shirt. "Oh, arc you tip .yet? I just thought I'd tell you that we've come back. Have you been reading, Ann?" “No. I cain’t read." “But why are you dressed? Have you been anywhere?"The huge woman lowered her eyes and slowly nodded. “Anni Have you been down to the rock?”_ "I got to go—down there—some­times." Her eyes darted fearfully in die direc'ion oi Snavely’s door and Iter voice dropped to a husky whis­ per. "Oh, Gawd, Miss Ruth—you lake yo’r little boy an* go 'way from this place 1'' Ann stepped back and softly closed the door.Snavely eyed her cautiously when, atibreakfast. Ruth gave him the packet cf notes which represented his share of loci cattle sale. There was something cdqly apologetic and inquisitive in his vol*e as he asked, “Didn't have no trouble in payin' off the note, did you ?"“Oh, no," answered Rutb, as she seated herself at the table. She was thinking; of tl:e money she had just given SflAvely—it had not been earned through any effort of his. “Nice sort of feller, that Wither- s;>oon,” he remarked, guardedly.“He seemed pleasant," said Ruth, That morning Snavely did not ride; he stayed in tlic neighborhood of the corral*. More than once Ruth saw him watching her.After the noon meal, Ruth went to the corrals and caught up Brisket and Sanchez. To her surprise, Snavely came from the blacksmith shop and helped her saddle the tiorses. ’’Goin' for a ride, ch?” he asked with a strained smile. “Yes; Jhe mail. Today's Saturday." "I was jest gettin’ set to go down that-a-way, myse’f. I’ll be startin' di­rectly." "Perhaps David and I will sec you, then,” replied Ruth.Snavely did cut speak for a mo­ment; then said casually, “No use in you goin'—without you're act on it. I can bring the mail." Ruth ignored this suggestion and helped David to mountAs *hc and David rode along the faintly marked road, the girl’s mind was busy.- The situation on the Dead Lantern was drawing to a climax; it seemed to her as though the very air was tensely charged. Since the evening before, Ruth had definitely connected Snavely with the voice in the gulch; he had been stand­ing there by the fence when she and Will came home, and Ann had heard the voice that same evening. She tried to recall Snavely's whereabouts on the occasions when the voice had spoken. At first, she told herself that the man had two or three perfect alibis —yet, were they? Did she know posi­tively that be bad gone to Palo Verde on tire night of the storm ? One thing certain, he had not brought back any and Kenneth and David had first come through the gulch, Snavely had appar­ently been milking at the bam—yet, Rudi had never known of hts milking since. True, he always avoided going through the gulch as though he were afraid of it But that did not prove that he had nothing to ' with the voice. Perhaps he went aruuiid, merely to give her the idea that he was afraid.' She began to feel that the only thing which definitely mitigated against Snavely being responsible for the voice was that the legend of the whispering rock was very old—there was no getting around that. Every one knew of the legend; even Don Francisco had heard of it as a boy. She determinod to explore the gulch,But Ruth did not explore the gulch that day. In the mail was a letter ad­ dressed to J. B. Snavely. In the upper left-hand corner of the envelope was the business head of the broker, With­ erspoon.Snavely had evidently changed his mind about fixing the gate- He was near the saddle shed when Ruth and David returned. Ruth nodded to him but made no other answer to his ques­tioning eyes, until she and David had turned out their horses. Thpn.Ruth walked up to Snavely, the letter in her hand. “Well, here it H," she said, looking him full in the eyes.For an instant. Rtrth thought he was going to pretend surprise, but he sud­ denly began to laugh. It was a desper­ ate laugh, somehow horrible; yet the laugh was meant to convey tliat he was greatly tickled, as though he had a tremendous joke on Ruth—a friendly joke in which he expected to be joined. Ruth did »mile.“Dogged if this ain't th’ beatin'itl" Snavely exclaimed. "You sec why I done it, don’t you, pardner?" Ruth had not been wholly sure of what Snavely had done or why he wa» receiving a letter from Witherspoon, up to the time he began to laugh. Now she said very soberly, “I hope I know why you did it. Mr. Snavely." Snavely swallowed twice before he spoke. “Well, I was aimin' to tell you jest as soon as it was settled. Last month when you did get enough cat­ tle money an’ met the note, I jest fig- gered I’d let you go ahead an' pay it anyways, an' then su'prise you.'' Hi* lips smiled."If I l»ad not been able to meet my note, Mr. Snavely, is it not true that you would have had my entire inter­ est In the ranch?” asked Ruth quietlySnavely spoke glibly. "Not at all, Mrs. Warren. Sudi a thing ain't pos­ sible because we're pardners. Parker or anybody else could have took your. interest away from you if you couldn't pay the note. But not me; I'm your It was a moment before Ruth could reply. She saw the deadlines* be­hind the man'* eye* pardner." It was a moment before Ruth could reply. She saw the deadlines* behind the man's eyes ... if she could only keep him good-natured until next week. "It was very thoughtful oi you,” she smiled;nice to know Iwas safeguarded all tlic time. Well,” ihe turned, ‘'it’s all over now; the note is paid and the ranch has been ini- prosed,” “It sure has," replied Snavely. He watched the girl as she walked toward the ranch houie, his pale eyes fastened on the retreating figure, suspicion and hatred mingled on his face.The next morning after breakfast Ruth entered her room. She >at for a time looking at her trunk, thinking. Suddenly die rose, unlocked the trunk, and took out the Quaker Oats box on which was scrawled, “for liver fever." Going into the kitchen, *he asked Anr to keep an eye on David for an hour, and taking up a potato and a paring knife, left by the front door. Sugar- foot greeted her and for a moment the girl looked down at the little dog.

It is a matter of deep gratification to know that fatalities in which automobiles, are concenyfd are decreasing in this province. From January 1st to Cktober 34st, 1933, there were 71 less fatalities of that character than in the/ame period last year.
