Virginian encounters "Trampas, the
local bully and bad man, and the Vir-
ginian makes him back down"
Deciding to open school, the cat
tlemen send East for a teacher, and
Molly a trite, lovely Vernon miss,
comes via the overland stage. The
Virginian rescues Molly from the coach
after drunken driver wanders off
the trail At barbecue the Virginian
proposes to Molly, but is rejected.
Trampas, who has made vile comments
on Molly, is forced by the Virginian
to eat his words.
Steve joins Trampas and his cattle
thieves. The Virginian is selected by
the cattlemen to hunt down and exter-
inmate the marauders. Steve and
Spanish Ed are captured, and despite
the Virginians fondness for Steve,
stern duty compels him to dispose Of
them by the Western method, and
Steve and Ed are hanged. Trampas,
who escaped the posse, reaches an In
dian camp, and incites them to kill
his enemy. The Virginian is severely
wounded and left by the Indians as
dead. Molly finds the Virginian and
takes him to her cabin, nurses him
back to health and promises to marry
him. The Virginian hears that Than
pas is again in camp and threatens his
life. Seeking Trampas out, they meet
in the street, duel begins and after
Trampas has paid the penalty, the
Virginian and Molly take up the thread
of their dreams in peace.

GOOD CARPENTER OF

Good Carpenter of Nazareth town,
Thou Workman staunch and true,

To build his house anew
His house of life, its blackened floors
Charred by the heat of sin,
With shattered panes and gappine
doors
Where friends NAV enter in.
Good Carpenter, lend him thy hands
And bid him at thy will,
Until once more his dwelling stands
All whole from roof to sill.
And when It's purified and when
'Tis garnished at it's best,
Then enter, Prince of Workingmen,
And be a poor mans guest

We are glad again-for the

nounce a big reduction on Good
year tires, effective Feb. list.
Goodyear policy on price is to
give the utmust in a tire at the
lowest possible profit. Our re-
auctions are made to that end,
without ever reducing the quail
ity.
That always means, with our
matchless output, more for the
money than any other maker can
give.
