Sunrise found Vandervyn riding
down the valley on his nimble-footed
pinto. He left the road and cantered
across into the bend where Redbear
had pointed out his new house to
Hardy. When Vandervyn rode up,
Redbear was shOveling clay upon the
uncovered brush thatch at one corner
OF the roof. The halfbreed did not
stop work until his visitor drew rein
almost within arms reach. Vandervyn
met his civil greeting with a cynical
smile.

"No, we say it O-ee-nah. The school

her to sleep all day, If she liked"
Come up the creek. l want to tell
you something" replied Vandervyn.
When they had gone beyond earshot of
the cabin, he stopped his pony and
faced the uneasy halfbreed with look
of sympathetic concern. Charlie, it's
all up"
Redbear's face turned notified gray.
"All-all up?" he gasped.

MOVIE ACTRESSES and
THEIR HAIR

Did It ever occur to you that every
movie actress you nave seen has
lovely hair. while tho most popular
count their curls as their chief
beauty? In fact, many are leading
ladies just because Of their attrac-
tive locks. Inquiry among them dis
closes the fact that they bring out
all the natural beauty Of their hair
by careful shampooing. not with any
soap or makeshift. but with a sim
pie mixture by putting n teaspoon
full of canthrox (Which thoy get
