A dawn behind a shadow

Color Dictionary Lists
220 Standardized Tints

A dictionary of colors has recent
ly been published by the British
Color council. 1t consists of two
volumes-one containing 220 silk rib
bons each distinctly colored, named
and tabulated; and the other pre-
senting a history of each color, in
Guiding the names which have de-
scribed it in the past, and giving the
authority for the present Standard
cation.
While the primary purpose Of the
dictionary is to supply industry with
a standard reference for colors, the
work is expected to give valuable
aid to artists and writer's through
an appropriate and accurate vocabu-
larry for the description Of shades
and tints.
Colors have been scientifically
measured and graded, making pos
sible the inclusion of new shades,
should they be developed in the fu-
ture, into a definite and orderly sys-
tenn. Imagery, history and indus
try have combined to find names.

ton and delight of their own. Taken

why Bob Elliot put on six more hands "
Already, then, this thing had come.
Legally the public domain was open to
all, whatever tradition or moral JUS
tice might hold. But Bob Elliot must
have known that the brand which held
this range would defend it bitterly !;
and this land had been Bar Hook Craze
for long time.
Perhaps, Kentucky Jones considered,
Bob Elliot could not wholly be blamed.
1t was hard to withhold all sympathy
from a man making a stubborn fight
in the face of crush-out. But it seemed
to him that there was something gross
ly unnatural about the manner In
which the move was being made. In
Elliot's position almost any enemy Of
Ragland might have been expected to
attempt a gradual infiltration of the
Bar Hook range. But this sudden,
openly hostile mass move was like
nothing Kentucky Jones had ever seen.
The thing was too swift, too unequiv-
ocal, too bald-faced.
Eight riders" Lee Bishop com.
mented. "He certainly is figuring to
make this stick He wouldn't be lay
ing on all those riders If this was
anything more than beginning, Ken
tuck"
"Can the Bar Hook stand it, Lee?"
"We'l d-n well see," said Lee
Bishop. He squinted at the sun. 'Tt's
pretty near a three-hour ride to get
down to where them cattle is, but I
guess we got to go; sorry we didn't
bring no SOW bosom and bareback,
Kentucky"
ITO hi with grub" said Kentucky,
swinging his horse into the down trail.
Out from the herd, as the Bar Hook
men drew near, rode a lank angular
man on hammer-headed roam pony.
"This is Bill McCord," Lee Bishop
said in an undertone; hes from away.
Bob Elliot's run through half dozen
range bosses in the last three years,
but this one will suit him, guess.
He"
YEAH know him. If he found
you drinking at a crick he'd ride

ed to mud. Hello. McCord."
McCord ignored Jones. "Howdy,
Bishop"

stock" Bishop began.

'Looks like Jean would have gone
with herr"
"Jean takes after her father" Lee
Bishop said. "This busted-up country
is bred into her blood and bone. She's
a true Ragland. There's been Rag

since the first long-horn showed"
"And how long has there been an

hot, too; though until Bob Elliot took
1t over from his old man, the SO was
just kind of chicken-yard outfit. It's
Bob that's got ambitious"
Kentucky Jones decided to try one
of his shots in the dark. "Lee," he
said casually, have you let anyone in
on the fact that Mason was not killed
at the time he was supposed to be-"
Lee Bishop turned to face Kentucky
Jones slowly. FLOWS that?" he said
without expression.
LET 1t CO." said Jones. From the
way you talked at the inquest, It
seemed to me like you didn't join in
with the others in figuring that Mason
was killed before the snow begun"
II said," Lee Bishop responded COM
batively, shat there wasn't no snow
under him, didn't II"
"You mean you grant that he was
dead before snow few?"
The foreman did not answer for al
most hundred PAGES. Then he burst
out with sudden unaccustomed dis
play of black temper. ''I'm tired of
these here everlasting questions! l
don't want to hash this thing over no
more, you hear me?"
They came out now upon a high
point Of the rim, a monstrous declivity
so sheer that it seemed as if at some
time the world itself must have
cracked to let the desert down. Far
below the Bake Pan country began, a
flat plain stretching into blue distance.
At glance the vast flats seemed ut
rerly devoid of life. Cowmen's eyes,
however, could pick out here and there
among the dark dots of sage and cat
claw other dots that were cattle. But
what interested the riders on the rim
was something elsa greater concen-
tration of cattle. long, dark irregular
string of them lying on the face of the
desert like blacksnake whip.
"Uh huh," said Lee Bishop. There
you have it How many head would
you count that driver
maybe twelve hundred" said Ken
lucky. "8S stock?"
"Sure they're So! You know now

USED CAR STOCKS
INCREASE
Heavy Sales of New Autos
Intensifies Problem for
Motor Industry.
" the Associated Press.


DETROIT, December 26-One i'm
mediate effect Of the heavy distribu-
tion Of new cars incident to the earlier
availability of new models has been q
sudden accumulation of used vehicles
on dealers floors. Always a problem.
the used automobiles have been turned
in even more literally during the last
few months by motorists eager to own
the latest models.
In the early stages Of the 1929-30
overproduction there was tendency
among leading manufacturers to at
tribute some Of the difficulties Of the
merchandising division to exorbitant
allowances made on old cars traded in
as part payment for new types. The
retailers retorted, generally. that fac
tory pressure necessitated high trade
in allowances in order that the dealers
might move out the heavy arrivals Of
new units from the assembly plants.
There apparently is no apprehension
that the inventories of used cars will
be permitted seriously to embarrass the
dealers in the distribution of new
types. There is, however a unanimity
Of opinion that used vehicles tie up too
much cash and that they must be
moved as rapidly as possible.
Thus the merchandising division Of
the industry, eager to maintain current
levels Of new car diStribution-or ex-
tend them-also faces the task of dis
posing Of reconditioned older models.
One element Of comfort the dealers
find in the current used car situation
is that the great bulk of the traded in
cars are Of relatively recent make
l933-34-35 models. AS a matter Of
fact, the abundance of these newer
used cars has made 1t difficult for the
bargain hunter to get much of an al
lowance on q model assembled before
1888.

UPTURN FORECAST
AT STEEL PLANTS.
Quick Rebound From Slow
Holiday Rate Likely After
First of Year.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. December 26.-The
week will show a considerable curtail-
ment of activities in the steel indus
try. due to the Christmas holidays,
but trade authorities look for a
quick recovery in the first week of
the new year, Iron Age stated today
in its weekly review.
Ingot production was estimated at
4812 per cent of capacity, or 7 points
below the rate of week ago. Christ
mas day suspension Of mill opera
tons was general, and some plants
are shut down for the week.
The review commented that "the
underlying general trend Of business
is still upward" and that despite
consumer shut downs for inventories,
the dow of materials from producers
plants has declined less than is usual
ly the case at the close Of the year.
Shipments to the motor car Nj
dustry have shown almost no recess
sion. Moreover, deliveries of prod
ucts on which price advances became
effective January / have increased
rather than declined.
Pig iron shipments in December
will exceed those of November, the
previous banner month this year. The
movement of semi-finished steel is
so heavy that mills find it physically
impossible to complete shipments this
month and will extend deliveries into
January.
"But in most finished steel products
buyers have well debated inventories
and will resume buying in volume
after the first Of the year. In many
cases their purchases will represent
expanding consumption.
Demand may receive added i'm
petus if reported impending price ad-
vances on sheets, strip steel, wire
goods and possibly other finished
products are announced during the
first quarter.
such a move was contemplated in
November and was postponed not
withstanding advances in raw mate
rial costs. The second effort to lift
the market on finished products may
be more successful than the first, in
view Of the further growth in bust
ness volume"
