CHAPTER "a

BREAKFAST next morning IN
cluded an hour of planning, in
which Ellen reiterated her desire
to be settled in her own new home.
eff you're in such hurry to
get on your ranch, I can arrange
it." Bill told her. you can move
out today"
But there's no housed"
mo. And won't be for a while
yet. But did you ever live in a
tent?"
Ellen Dale had been born in
Brooklyn, reared figuratively in a
subway, worked in crowded five
and-1O-cent store, then in Holly
wood. Tents were just things some
of the movie producers used occa-
sionally for outdoor scenes.
II could learn" said Ellen,
gamely.

Twill they?"
Eyes. And coyotes. Ever hear
coyote? Ever see one?"
mo, Bill. Are they dangerous ?"
mo. But they sound like BAN
shoes, or worse. I have had Mexi-
can families moved out. They can
squat in lean-tos or anything.
You can have big wall tent be-
side your stream, and the Mexican
lady can be chaperon."
II think it would be fun! won't
be scared much"
It'll give you a gun, two guns.
You can practice outdoor craft
while we build the ranch home.
But I'm more worried about your
getting lonely more than anything
else"
"Will you be there, part Of the
time ?"
"All of the time. Until you fire
me. expect to supervise the con-
struction work. And get the ranch
going as agreed"
"I'll go out today" Ellen said.
Some of her personal things had
already been shipped from her
Hollywood apartment, and Ellen
spent an hour this morning adding
to them. She bought several
books, among other things. And
magazines, clothing, shoes, port
able photograph, a battery radio,
a typewriter, stationery. Bill met
her at 10 o'clock and bought a.
saddle that fitted" her well; also
pistols, shot gun, rifle, and album
dant ammunition. He bought a
small truck, too, saying it would
be constantly needed at the ranch
and would come in handy at the
start.
I've spotted four horses" he
told her. They'll come out this
afternoon. I'll load the tent and
all the duffel on the truck now.
and you can start out with it,"
2" Ellen looked her inquiry
too.
Sure, you. IF you're going to
be rancher, be a rancher. Never
heard of a ranch woman who
couldn't drive truck. It's light
weight one. Listen, sis, if you
hang around me long-I mean, if
you let me hang around long as
foreman of the DD-I'll have YOU
learning to milk cows!"
"BiH!"
Sure! Glory, you don't think
fanching is like living at the Bit

stuck out her tongue saucily at
him. ED.Ai :

CHEMICAL BASIS
GIVEN HORMONES
Formula Not Yet Final Is
Blow to Old Ideas
About Sex.
BY HOWARD w. BLAKESLEE,
Associated Press Science Editor.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa, Oct. IA
new chemical formula to explain the
puzzling origin of sex hormones was
announced yesterday by Pennsylvania
State College.
The formula, as yet only predic-
ton, upSets old ideas about sex. 1t
forecasts that both men and women get
their sex hormoneS from cortin, well
known product of the adrenal glands,
two eap-shaped bodies above the kid
neys which have no apparent connec-
ton with sex.
Sex hormoneS are the chemicals
which cause the difference between
masculine and feminine voices, good
looks and personalities; regulate re-
production; and indirectly affect gen.
eral health.
When first discovered, there were
supposed to be two, one male, the
other female, both from sex glands
The male hormone would cause combs
to grow on hens. Everything seemed
simple.
Complications Discovered.
Then it was discovered that these
hormones did not act except under
stimulation of an entirely non-seX hor-
none made by the pituitary gland at
the base of the brain.
That complication was nothing COM
pared to what happened afterward,
especially in the last two or three years
A bewildering variety of sex hormones
has come to light. Men make female
hormones and vice versa. Women
make male hormones that no man pro-
duceS.
Untangling this has become almost
critical, because each of these chem
ical products, although only slightly
different from its fellows, has some
specific action on a human beings
welfare
One of the leaders in uncovering
this sex maze is DR.. Russell E. Marker,
associate professor of organic chem
istry at Penn State He notes that all
these sex substances are chemical
made of four rings of atoms. Their
similarities render fairly certain the
nature of the mother" substance of
them ALL
Cortin Essential Element.
DR.. Marker thinks he has found
this parent" in cortin. Cortin Is
essential to life. 1t regulates the salts,
sodium and potassium, in the tissues.
1t, too. has the "four-ring" structure.
Scientists. however. have been un-
able, in 10 years effort, to isolate it in
pure form, or learn it's chemical
formula. DR. Marker thinks he has
computed this formula at last, an
arrangement, he says, of 81 carbon
atoms, 26 hydrogen and S oxygen.
The extraordinary thing about the
new formula is the way it fits as the
substance which the body can easily
change into all the sex hormones
which have yet been found.

proposal includes recent medical dis
coveries that when adrenal glands be-
cause of tumors become overactive,
women grow boards and children be-
come sexually precocious. Cortin has
been blamed as the interloper thus
interfering with sex.
Until now it has been the general
belief that sex hormones were made
by the body from cholesterol, waxy
substance in living tissues, and II per
cent of the brain. But it was hard
for chemists to understand how the
body could make so many different
substances from cholesterol. Marker
new formula makes this comparatively
easy.
