Dale was of the type that goes pale
with anger, and he was pale now. He
clenched his hands.

The other turned red. then white
then red again. Bill Dale's words had
flashed him keenly. His eyes became
like hard black beads, and he began
to raise the wicked-looking pistol as
though he meant to fire.
Then there was the sound of a
breaking twig behind him. and voice
drawled out:

Hayes that the two hillmen had shown
good judgment and some business
sense In making their purchases.
When the evening meal was over
Dale drew John Moreland out to the
cabin yard. where the many old-fash-
Toned flowers made the night air sweet
with their blended odors. For mo-

"that we send to the little town In

 NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-Trading in stocks was broader and more active today with steady pressure on the list. The narrow and uncertain movements of recent sessions gave way to definite downward tendency and at the close substantial losses were recorded. Various issues reached new low points for the year, including American sugar, which sold off three points to 62A; Western Union, which broke 6%, to 76, and General Electric, the recission of which amounted to 2%, forcing it 4S0.00o shares. The days news em- braced variety of unfavorable items which were sufficient to give a de- cidedly bearish turn to the operations of traders.
 The government crop report prompted selling of the grain. car riers, although the representative rails fared well by comparison with the industrials. Passing of the American Sugar dividend was fol- lowed by a slump in the stock, which showed that the directors action had not been entirely discounted.

 Boy Scouts Arrive at Camp
 The Boy Scouts have arrived at Sycamore Creek. where their tents were all stretched and they will have the time of their lives for the next 12 days. They will be under strict rules and will have to obey their scout masters. Many a Scout will have grown another inch by the time he returns to the family table, and quite a few pounds will be added to
 his weight. Physical culture will play a great part in their work. They will have to take part in doing camp duty, and with the lectures which they will receive during the day, with the camp fire stories they will hear, it is easily seen that the 12 days will pass rapidly. Accompanying the boys on their trip are scout masters, scout executives with their assistants, and many professors from the university of Tucson and the Tempe Normal In addition Joe Prochaska, state game warden: George w Si1verthorn, Mesa attorney; Dr. R. F. Palmer. George A. Johnson and others will visit the camp.
