She had gone that way a thousand

At her feet, in a sunny nook,
bloomed the first wild violets. She

Nate Tichenor slept at the Bar a

K early next morning, with two men
he had picked up in Valley Center.
He set them at once to the task of dig
ging Rance Kershaw's grave In the
family cemetery, Lorry Kershaw point
ing out to them the desired spot.
About noon the coffin arrived from
Valley Center and he helped the man
who delivered ii place Kershaw In 1t.
Then he lunched with Lorry and Miss
Bachman. At one-thirty he and Lorry
hitched a team to a wagon and be
drove it around and tied the team In
front of the house. At two o'clock the
girl met his inquiring glance bravely
and said:
ave might as well proceed. Nate.
Nobody's coming to my fathers fu-
neral"
With the aid of two of the hired
men he carried Rance Kershaw out to
the wagon and, mounting the sea-,
drove his late enemy on the latters
last pilgrimage, while Lorry, Miss
Bachman, and the two laborers fol-
lowed in the Kershaw car. At the
grave Tichenor read the funeral serv-
ice, the men covered the grave, Tiche-
nor gave them each ten-dollar bill
and with Lorry and Miss Bachman
returned to the house.
He was rather proud Of the manner
in which Lorry had carried on, even
though he had expected her to exhibit
the traditional courage of her clan.

SYNOPSIS

Ranceford Kershaw, last male mem
Der of the Kershaw clan, dies sudden
iy while riding with his daughter, Lor-
ry. At the close of the Mexican war,
Robin Kershaw, with his bride, rode
into northeastern California. Here he
found an ideal valley for cattle rails
ing. They christened II Eden Valley.
Below Eden Valley is a less valuable
tract which Kershaw's wife christens
Forlorn Valley. Joel Hensley. a Texan,
settles in the lower half of the VAL
ley. There is bad blood over fences
and water for irrigation. Kershaw
kills Hensley and the blood feud is on.
By 1917. Rance Kershaw. his son
owen, and daughter Lorry are all that
remains of one clan. Nate Tichenor
is the sole survivor on the Hensley
side. He goes to help Lorry in her car
and finds her father has died of heart
disease. Silas Babson, Forlorn Valley
banker, schemes to control the irriga-
ton and hydro-electric possibilities of
Eden Valley. He proposes to play
Nate against Lorry. assuming that
they are carrying on the old feud, in
this way getting control OF the key
lands necessary to the project. Nate,
however. has no intention of carrying
on the feud.

IT'S breathtaking the way millinery
has burst into a blaze of glory be-
fore our enchanted eyes this season.
Everything from flowers to feathers,
fruit trimmings, ribbons and brims of
startling dimension seems to be con-.

into the picture once more.
Now that brims have definitely "ar-
rived" you may wear them as huge as
you care to wear them. Fashion places
no limit to their dimensions. Not for
season upon season have brims been
so wide, so versatile, so everywhere
present, so chic and so picturesque.
In the circle leghorn and roses tell
a summary tale of hats-beautiful such
as will be worn with frocks of exotic
print, with gowns Of lace, or of net,
pastel chiffons or organizes.
In the other large circle is a huge
black panama with the new fruit trim
ming which is considered quite the
last word this season. You must have
at least one hat trimmed with a wee
apple or so, or a trio Of plums and
green leaves, or cluster of cherries
or berries Of some sort-anything just
so 1t is tempting looking artificial
fruit. By the way, the fruit motif in
dress prints is also very good this sea-
son.
The hat up in the left corner of the
group has one of those wee semi
wreathes about the front of its
crown which is decorative yet con-
sentative enough to permit this wide
brimmed chapeau to be worn with
simple daytime costumes.

Few Breeds Have More Friends Among

If the choice of dog rested sole

of its hair and the animals immunity

News.

face.
But with It all the Old English
sheep dog will match any other breed

This is the breed of dogs over which
much controversy has waged regard

PASTEL WOOL NOW
POPULAR FAVORITE

Every season sees some new fashion
development which springs up mush-
room fashion, overnight. This year
it is short, loose or belted swagger
coats Of white or pastel wool over
town frocks of plain or printed crepe.
These coats are sold separately.
They are quite inexpensive. And they
give a decidedly fresh and summary
air to a dark ensemble. They may
take the place Of the black or navy
redingote with which you started out
the spring season.
String color Is very smart with
black or navy. other popular shades
are a deep dusty yellow, linen blue,
and a soft leaf green. In many in
stances the color of the coat Is accent
ed in the print of the frock, or in
some detail of belt, scarf or other
trimming.
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1934-06-15

Biologists scoff at this and point
out that we cannot breed tailless dogs
in this manner any more than we
could produce legless dogs by contin-
ually cutting off the legs of the ami
mails. However, Old English sheep
dogs have locked tails. This is the
style and puppies. should they be
born with tails" are shorn of most Of
this appendage.
The breed came to US from the coun-
try after which II is named. 1t was
considered the best herding dog ever
produced, possessing a formidable
voice. great stamina and strength and
seldom experiences fatigue. The dogs
are of medium size, standing about %
inches high at the shoulders. In color
the standard calls for any shade of
grizzle, blue or blue merel with or
without white markings.
