What do you want?" she de-
/ handed
"Swergin's orders, miss. I'm to ride
along with you whenever you leave
camp" The man seemed to enjoy
Dona's evident flash Of temper at
/ his words.
You might as well ride back and
unsaddle. I go where I please"
Sorry, miss but you are not TO
ride up on the mountain. Down
I here is all right" The fellow was
Of dull type and seemed to enjoy
his present errand.
Dona noted that he was not much
at home in the saddle. He would
be easy to lose, If she chose.
Taking different tack, she
smiled. Orders are orders. I SUD-
pose we'll both have to mind the
big boss
The man grinned, displaying bro
ken front teeth. "Swergin runs
things up here he admitted.
How long have you worked for
him?" Dona asked by way Of making
talk.
I was with swergin before he
came on this job the man ex-
planned. Him and mes been pals"
Dona smiled, more to herself than
to the rider How far is it to Blind
River?" she asked suddenly. 1t
would be great sport to give Swer-
gin the slip and ride over the range.

if you'd ride back and ask Malloy

The escort grinned widely. Sure,
Miss He turned his horse around,
by jerking on one rein, and trotted
back up the slope.
Dona watched until he was al
most at the corrals. Then she
touched the roam with her spurs and
galloped around the hill.
AS soon as she was out Of sight
she doubled back and headed for
the timbered slopes of Folly Noun
tain. A smile parted her soft lips
as she thought of her bodyguard
searching miles down the canyon
for her. Several minutes later she
saw him galloping down the slope
in mad haste.
He disappeared into the canyon
and Dona headed the roam for the
place where the Blind river trail cut
across the ridge.

him lesson. Malloy was sitting in
the shade, smoking a cigaret
IF Mr.. Winters asks for me when
he comes, tell him I'll be back some
time this afternoon.
Malloy nodded and went on smok-
ing.
Dona mounted the roam and rode
down the hill Out Of the corner Of
her eye she could see her escort Of
the morning riding after her.
She kept a slow pace and he soon
overlook her 1t was apparent that
he intended to ride along as a COM
panion.
1T will be great fun to ride down
through the canyon" Dona greeted
him with a smile
Yeah. There amt no use Of rid
ing up on that mountain" the man
agreed.
Dona pulled up her horse sharply
and vexed pout came to her lips.

"A good two-hour ride the man
answered.
The answer set Dona thinking
She wished she could ride over the
range just to show the big boss. She
wanted to ask about Stanley Black
too.
For several days she had been
toying with the idea that ne would
be the man to settle with all. She
knew he was in the country and
suspected that the boys at the Blind
River ranch would know where to
find him
A glance at her watch told her
that she was half an hour late for
her meeting with Dudley. She
turned the roam and cantered back
toward camp.
Her escort followed at a jolting
lope. He looked uncomfortable
astride his horse, as though he
would rather have kept the animal
at a walk.
Dudley had not returned when
Dona arrived, so she did not have
the roam unsaddled.

CHE ate dinner and sat for half
y an hour with her father, but
still dudley did not return. Finally
she arose and walked down to the

4 DAY.
By BRUCE CATION

4 THOUSAND years before Co
L n Iumbus crossed the ocean, the
Maya children in Central America
used to hear from their elders the
story Of a great f1ood-a story, by
the way, which begins in a manner
strikingly similar to the biblical
story Of the flood.
Long ago, they were told, people
were thoughtless and sinful, and
forgot to go to the temples or make
sacrifices to the gods.
So the gods sent a flood to punish
them, and the people built a boat
to escape. But they made the mis-
take of building their boat out of
stone, and so it sank, and they
all were drowned, and after the
flood new and better race of
people came to the earth to take
their place.
This is just one of the bizarre
and colorful tales in THE Bright
Feather" a collection of old Maya
folk tales by Dorothy Rhoads.
Miss Rhoads collected, in the
jungle villages near Chichen TIA,
a number of the stories which the
Mayas used to tell their children
and she has retold them here in a
simple, straightforward style.
The stories are interesting on
their own account; but they also
provide an excellent means og
awakening a modern childs interest
in the romantic story of the lost
civilization of the Mayas.
And while THE Bright Feather
is presented as a book for children,
it is worth the attention of adults
as well. At any rate, this one found
it interesting.
Published by Doubleday, Doran
and Company, the book sells for 81.

forest of virgin timber. Dona halted
and gazed down over the dark
green Of the spruce and pine.
Those giant trees were response
bic for the trouble in which she
found herself. For them the timber
cutters had invaded the ancient
range Of the COW men. Slopes had
been denuded and left to erode.
Dona realized as she sat there Just
what cutting meant to these men
who had lived in the open and had
known the forests all their lives.
Then she remembered the ruth
less manner in which the chosen
scout of those COW men was acting
and her lips frightened.
They think they can run us out. -
she whispered to the roam. But
it takes more than one lone gunman
to do that. I'll see that Dad cuts
over this slope if 1 have to order
it done myself"
With touch of her spurs she
