the train roared In. Goodby, little
fellow. Pll see You next round up

AS the train slid away from the
station she looked from her window
and saw him riding up the single
street on the big paint-horse. The
train cleared the edge OF the little
town and passed the cattle chute.
Three wagons, each drawn By four
big mules. moved toward the cluster
Of buildings which comprised the
town, the freighters on their way TO
haul out materials for the rebuilding
of the ranch.
The work was going on but she no
longer had share In H. She was
looking ahead and planning q future
In which the Three Bar played no
part.
Deane was With Judge Cotton, her

All through the day she had scarce

Harris and the sheriff came In with

little later Bentley's men rode
up and five minutes behind them
came Carp with the rest. and al.
hands turned In. Al daylight the
long return journey to the Three Bar
was commenced, Twenty miles out
from the ranch and before noon of
the next day the sheriff and the mar
shals had split Off with their men,
leaving the 7'f4ee Bar crew to ride
the short intervening space to the
ranch alone.
AS she neared the edge of the Crazy
loop valley the girl dreaded the first
glimpse of the pillaged ranch.
They had reached the edge OF the
valley and she looked down upon the
ruins.
"Now I'm ready to co." she saic
"I'lI 60 and see what Judge Cotton
wants."
He wanted you to get away before

said. Il knew that maybe we'd have

Three Bar booming along without
having been through all the grief. So

Without giving you too much of

the action takes place on board a
great ocean liner bound for New
York. It is here that Sherlock
lands his bad man. These ocean
liner scenes have been splendidly
handled.
This edition Of the work OF Sher-

Brook will never get tired playing

I may be all wrong but Kate to
me was always a little She-devil,

mind about playing.
It takes the college vamp played
by Loretta Young, little time TO
make Roadway, but when she does,
she walks right into Douglass heart
The song ct Gotta Have You
which she sings to him, would make
any fellow at least turn hic head.
Some complications arise of
course, for Miss Young at the time
is wearing the pin of another foot
ball star, but this only helps to
make things more interesting.
AS it would happen just before
the big game, Douglas ove-hears
about the arrangement between
Loretta and the coach. Loretta got
first rate seats if she carried
through the task assigned her. Oh
yes, I forgot to tell you that
Douglas had changed his mind, and
was going to play.
But when he hears how he had
been framed, this puts the damper
on him. 1t would anybody. After
the first half it looks as if Colfax
had the game.
And then comes the magic note
from the girl to her man, telling
him she loves him, no matter if he
never plays any more football. Well
he does play more football, and
as I said. Sanford wins.
