CHAPTER Is

Inserting a full clip of car
tridges in his automatic, Dick
faced the targets, and instantly
every figure in that double line
of spectators stiffened, every
eye turned toward those five
silver coins. Unseen behind that
breathleSs audience Nora stood
on tiptoe, both hands tight
against her throat, her lips
trembling in what might have
been a prayer.
Now Dicks arm had raised,
and now the sun glinted on
that leveled barrel, and five
blue shafts of flame leaped from
the muzzle. Five rapid shots
roared out, and at the last not
O target remained.
Spellb bound, held by an
astounded, unbelieving silence,
no one spoke or moved, then
suddenly the tension snapped.
Never in the long history of the
cavalry post had it thrilled to
such a shout as split the air.
Frantic with joy, the cowboys
reared their horses, fired their
guns, throwing a cloud of hats
and quirts above them, raising a
very bedlam of rejoicing while
they raced up and down the
parade ground in an ecstasy Of
uncomfortable delight.
At once Dick found himself
the center of whirling, whoop-
ing circle of elated ranchers who
reached down to shake his hand
and pound his shoulder, shout
ing their Whole-hearted approval,
then, wheeling, we're gone again,
spurring their mad, joyous way
toward Verde.
Magnificent shooting, LOWELL"
O'Hearn seized Dicks hand,
pressed it, then walked rapidly
away while Pablo, his mouth
set in an ugly sneer, turned
wrathfully to his horse and
without a glance of those blood
shot eyes at his crestfallen COM
rades, rode out toward the
Barrier.
Empty Victory
But now the rest of the on
lockers were moving toward the
gate, and alone at last, Dicks
expectant eyes turned to Nora,
standing with Mrs. O'Hearn on
the edge of the parade ground.
Why was she keeping so delib-
erately apart from him? Across
the intervening distance their
eyes met, and his cheeks flushed
with quick pleasure as she took
q step toward him just before
O'Hearn reached her. But the
officer, pointing toward the
quarters, offered his arm. and
smiling, Nora turned and walked
slowly away at his side.

Suggests u. S. Anthem.

That American short wave radio
programs destined for international
reception should adopt the custom OF
other nations and sign OF with our
national anthem, Is suggested in q
letter to Chairman Aiming s. Prall OF
the Federal Communications Commits
sion by Indiana's woman member OF
Congress, Virginia E. Jenckes. Mrs;
Jenckes pointed to the impressiveness
of British Empire broadcasts which
end with "God Save the King" and
French short wave relays which end
with THE Marseillaise" when heard
by listeners on this side.
ut Is q regrettable fact" she wrote,
that The Star-Spangled Banner il
seldom heard even over our domestic
networks during the evening hours
when everyone is listening. Is it not
rare today, except possibly by the serv-
ice bands, Of the Army, Navy and Ma
rine Corps, to hear our national an
them over the radio? I think, never
theless, that 1t Is even more impor-
tant to show our colors' on foreign
broadcasts."
