"You better wait until"
"Shut up! ought to have told some

But you ought to know it."
Bishops voice was very faint, but
he seemed to speak with little effort,
as long as he did not try to raise his
tone.
"Lee," said Kentucky. 81 don't

you can tell me why Bill McCord wants
to kill you, it sure might help in what's

Kentucky, amt got any more

I'm worrying about is the way you're

Mason. What time did you leave the

When Campo Ragland and Harry Will

every probability of finding it. If they

equal to the remainder of Lee Bishops

FLOWERS CURRENT
THEME OF STYLISTS

FLOWERS for Madame" is the current
theme song of the stylists.
Fresh flowers are being used as a
definite part of current costume en-
sembles, used in new and unusual ways.
There is, in case you didn't know
it, a tailored corsage" of orchids,
for wear with tailored daytime cos
tunes. The stems are wound with
velbet ribbon, in a color to harmonic
with the ensemble, and are pinned
against the collar of the frock or
jacket.
For evening gay young things are
wearing q spray Of small pink orchids
across the back of the head, tiara
fashion.
Flowers in the hair are all the rage
just now. Reminiscent of Carmen are
the sprays of red camellias worn by
dashing brunets these nights on their
dark curls, just behind the right ear.
Another new idea is that of attach
ing a single orchid to your jeweled
bracelet.

poppy print, are feStoOned on the cape
forming garland about the shoulders,
also spiraling around the skirt in
double file. The soft sash is of char
treuse green silk taffeta.
This gown is especially significant
in that it demonstrates the use of cut
out fiorals from printed fabric as a
trimming feature. Designers are doing
very clever things along this line of
thought. One striking effect is the lei or
garland which is worn about the Shout
ders like boa or necklace, or is used
to finish low-cut necklines, that is
made entirely of cutout flowers taken
from gay printed chiffons or crepes
or whatever the silken material may
be. Boutonnieres made of the same
print as the frocks with which they
are worn are also smartly in vogue.
Perhaps one of the most unique and
charming adaptations of cutout print
forals is seen in sleeves which are
formed of the flower motifs which are
caught in the center only, the petals
fiuttering out as If they were real
flowers. These flower sleeves contrast
monotone frock. By the way, ad-
vance news in regard to fall fashions
places special emphasis on the APP
preaching vogue of contrasting sleeves,
such as lace or silk print or embroid-
cred sleeves used with monotone silk
or velvet or wool for the frock.
Again, speaking of the use of cut
out print motifs, cunning collar and
cuff sets are formed in the manner
described above. The theme is one
that may be handsomely worked out
for bridesmaids hat and muff sets.
The flair for beautiful prints also ex-
presses itself in that several dress
makers are making up plain chiffon
over printed satin slips. The effect is
enhancing. A timely hint for your
next party dress.

Calendar Promulgated
by Pope Gregory XIII

Our calendar is the one promulgated
by Pope Gregory XIII, with the counsel
of the astronomer, Clavius. 1t was
adopted by the Catholic nations gen.
orally in the year 1882, by England and
her colonies in 1852, and about the lat
ter year by Sweden and Tuscany.
The Gregorian calendar is now prac-
tically universally in use. This reck-
oning was accepted by Russia soon aft
er the revolution of 1917, and by the
Greek church in 1923. In many Mo-
hammedan countries or regions 1t Is
used officially in civil life in prefer
ence to theirs.
The calendar In use previous to the
Gregorian was that introduced by Ju-
Illus Caesar in B. G. 46, in which he
held the true year to be 1854 days
long. The Julian calendar, therefore,
provided for year Of 365 days with a
366th added every fourth year. The &C
tual time required for the earth's jour
ney around the sun is 365 days, 5 hours,
4S minutes and 46 seconds-11 minutes
and IA seconds less than Caesar al
lowed. But his calendar was sufficient
ly accurate to work marvelously for
generations.
Still, by 1882 the error had amounted
to ten full days. The vernal equinox
fell upon the 18th instead of the Dist
of March. The shift had unfxed the
time of Easter and all the other NOV
able feasts.
Pope Gregory XIII therefore or
dained that ten days should be deduct,
ed from the year 1852 to set things
right again. This was done In the
church calendar by calling what would
have been the 5th of October, the 18th
After that a recurrence Of the error
was to be guarded against by emitting
the leap year from every hundredtt
year except those centuries exactly di
visible by 400. By this system there Il
still slight inaccuracy. but 1t will moi
amount to quite day In 5000 years.

Bishop demanded.
You see that coulee up ahead of us

deep is that coulee?'
The drainage feature which Ken
lucky indicated was shallow twisting
cut that wound its way across the floor
of the mile-wide canyon, creek dur
ing the rains, a dry wash in time of
drouth.
Maybe five or six foot Deep" said
Bishop. "Why?"
"Walk with me slow and easy until
we get to the edge of that coulee,"
Kentucky said "Then slap hooks to

as he's in, duck out of the saddle and

a horse, he's got his head snaked low
to the ground, such as will stop the
average horse from whinnying when
another one comes along"
Lee Bishop swung in his saddle to
stare back at the canyon wall three
hundred yards away. Kentucky snarled
at him, Don't turn, you"
Suddenly Bishop gave a queer gag

MIDSUMMER prints are simply gor-
AVA geous. Adjectives, no matter
how extravagant, how eloquent or pic
turesque, fall short of describing them.
1t is impossible to capture their beauty
of color and design and release it via
mere words. Like the full blown rose
that reaches perfection of bloom in
midsummer, the lovely prints now
worn, especially the sumptuous eve
ming prints, have reached to such
heights of glamorous beauty ones very
being thrills at the sight of them.
The enchanting gowns here pic
tured are self-explanatory as to why
women continue to adore prints. The
superlative lOveliness of the stately
model to the left in the group carries
the message that no happier choice can
be made in the way of a summary eve
ming gown than filmy, vaporOus
printed chiffon which silhouettes huge
white waterlilies touched with pink
and green shadows against a misty

killed Mason" he repeated, because
Mason was still alive when you got
back to Waterman. I know he was
alive because / saw him alive. He
was sitting his horse just below knob,
about a quarter mile from the Bar
Hook ranch house. I saw him plain"
But when you found him." Ken
lucky pointed out, there was no snow
under him; proving he was killed be-
fore the snow began to fall"
81 can't account for that. Maybe
the snow under him melted, or some
thing"
This seemed unlikely to Kentucky,
but he did not interrupt.
II was a couple furlongs away"
Bishop admitted, continuing. "But
don't you tell me / made mistake. I
mind how John Mason used to sit, kind
of half crooked in the saddle; and l
mind the round of his shoulders as he
sat his horse. and the tilt of his hat.
I'd know him any distance, out of a
thousand men,"
There was something peculiarly IA
miliar about Lee Bishops claim of
recognition. Suddenly Kentucky knew
why. He had heard Joe st. Marie use
almost the same words in explaining
to Jean Ragland, the night they found
lack Sanders, that he had seen a
ghost.
1T isn't hardly likely" Kentucky
offered speculatively, shat you'd mis-
take that pinto horse Mason rode that
day."
They was wrong about that" Bishop
said promptly. Mason wasn't riding no
pinto horse. He was riding a little
blood bay pony-an SO pony they call
Three Spot"

said. "Did this-did Mason see you?
He ought to have seen me. / was

Kentucky rose and went about his
work of keeping up the fires. By the
signal fire he stood listening for a long
time, suspicious of small sounds far
away; but he could make certain of nc
indication of nearby human life. He
went back to Lee Bishop.
"Are you there, Kentucky?"
Right here. Lee"
Kentucky, I'm sorry I never told
that. If only I'd told some people
about it, it would clear you. But-use

across his breast with both hands,
toppled sidewise and pitched headlong
into the snow.
Kentucky Jones dropped out Of the
saddle, lifted Lee Bishop, and got the
foreman over his shoulders. Running
diagonally to keep the pony between
himself and the ambushed rifle, he
tried for the lip of the coulee.
A fourth time the rifle ii the rocks
spoke, and this time Kentucky's horse
plunged, jerking free the reins, and
went to it's knees. Bishops rifle fell to
two PAGES to snatch it up. The edge
of the coulee was ten PAGES beyond.
As he ran, chest to the ground, the rifle
chopped at them once more from the
lodges of the notch, and Kentucky
felt Lee Bishops body jerk. Then he
lowered Bishop over the edge by the
arms, and leaped in after him.
Lee! Lee, where are you hit?'
Lee Bishops eyes were squinted shut,
and he groaned through set teeth as
Kentucky tried to straighten him out
upon the bottom Of the arroyo. "They
got me, Kentucky" he managed to get
out at last
"The hi they have! You going to
please that bunch by making die?"
But when he had examined Lee
Bishop he did not know. The first shot
Lee Bishop had received had been an
angling one. in the back; he could not
tell whether the bullet had lodged at
the bottom of the lung or some place
else.
Catching up Bishops rifle, Kentucky
threw a shot into the general vicinity
of the ambush, and instantly drew fire
in return. Apparently their attackers
were not attempting to close.
Kentucky Immediately set about the
improvisation of bandages. Twice a
minute he interrupted his work to
sight across the valley floor for sign of
approach.
Still keeping constant lookout, he
prepared for the night. Bishop ap-
