the chap who held you up, Cy?"
Sheriff Kohr asked.
Vesta nodded without q moments
hesitation. That's him. That's the
suit he was wearing. I'd recognize it
anywhere"
CLARK ELDRIDGE lighted a
cigarette. Il suppose" he said,
you're Vesta, treasurer of the bank.
And I suppose you're also accusing
me of robbing your bank" He blew
smoke through his nose. do you
mind my telling you you're crazy as
loon!"
Vesta bristled. Sheriff Kohr said:
Hold on a minute, Cy. There's one
or two more questions want to ask.
In your description of the bandit you
said he wore a silver belt buckle.
That's what made me suspicious Of
young Eldridge He's the only dandy
around here who would wear a silver
belt buckle. Clark, unbutton your
coat and let's see what you hold up
your pants with"
Clark started to protest, then
changed his mind. He unbuttoned his
coat, revealing the silver belt buckle.
That's it," Vesta exclaimed ex-
ultantly. I'D know 1t anywhere.
"Humm," said the sheriff. That
suit Clark's wearing is double
breasted affair. You couldn't see the
buckle less his coat was unbuttoned ="
Vesta looked blank. well, what
about it?"
"Nothin', except that you explained
to me how the bandit paused in the
entry to slip off his mask. You also
said he unbuttoned his coat and
slipped his gun in his pants pocket.
Now II he unbuttoned his coat, he
musta had it buttoned, and If he had
1t buttoned you couldn't O. seen the
belt buckle. Which leads me to think,
Vesta, you're a dirty liar and that
you stole the money from your own
bank and Matched up this story in
volving an innocent kid. Do you want
to argue?"
Clark accompanied Sheriff Kohr
and his prisoner to the Jail. After
Vesta was locked up, the officer said:
CLARK, I'm coming out to talk to your
pa one of these days about you. A
KID like you shouldn't be sittin' around
readin an nothin' more. Folks is
apt to try an make a sucker OUTER
you"
Clark grinned. Thanks, sheriff.
But be careful my dad or some one
else, like Vesta, doesn't make a sucker
out of you

State. On the Pacific Coast the hop
borers do not become such a serious
problem.
The first moths may be seen in May.
They are exquisitely marked on their
wings. The darker portion is q deep
rose with brown tints shading to q
much lighter hue toward the edges.
There u some bronze in the upper
wings and there are two dull yellow
spots. You can see how perfectly the
fore wings are separated into color

lines. These lines are pink.
The moths fly about seeking their

to deposit her roundish yellow-green
eggs. These moths, like all their rela-
tives and other neighbors of insect
persuasion, are almost infallible as
bo$anists. The moth finds her hop
vine and crawls to the tip, where she
anchors an egg, one to a bud.
In . few days the egg releases tiny,
slender green larva. It is spotted with
black. Before you can say Jack Rob-
inson" the youngster has burrowed
into ths vine Just under the tip and
here 1t spends most Of its youthful
days. The vine, deprived Of its rishtful
nosrishment, soon shows the sign Of
deprivation and the hop grower, COM

al healthy hop vines do and embrace

to climb up, the vine looks earthward
and soon ceases to grow. The hop vine

Get Sheriff Kohr to thinking. There
was only one man living anywhere
around Shapleigh who would wear
silver belt buckle. That was young
Clark Eldridge. Jake Eldridge's son.
Jake owned the Triangle E and Clark
had graduated from the State uni
versity that spring and had come
home TO live, with lot Of high ideas
in his head.
Clark was sitting on the veranda
reading book when the sheriff
drove up.
"Your pa home. sonny?"

"An' you amt got nothin' to do but
sit around readin' books, eh?"
IF it's any Of your business, I'm

Whatever that is. Git your coat,

What for?"

CLARK hesitated, then laid aside
his book and rose. Sheriff Kohr
noted with satisfaction that the boy
was wearing q silver belt buckle. He
thought what a fool the youngsters
pa was to let him lie around the house
doing nothing.
Clark went into the house and came
gu. again, wearing his coat. Has
anything happened to my dad?" he
asked.
jim stared at him. Sight Of the
boy all dressed up gave him a new
train Of thought.
"No," he said, speaking less harshly

On the drive back to town, Kohr said:

ROME, Nov. 4.-Premier Musso-

against men who "are dreaming of
speculative and impossible revenge" /"
For this reason" he told a crowd
massed before the Palazzo Venezia
for ceremonies marking the Goth an
niversary of the Italian World War
victory over Austria, there is still
need of sleeping with our heads on
our packs as we did in the trenches. ;"
Mussolini evidently was referring
to factions abroad whom he regards
as being opposed to policies of gen.
eral European appeasement on the
basis of the four-power Munich &C
cord which sliced up Czechoslovakia.
A hundred thousand veterans ar
rived in Rome for the celebration.

Unused u. S. Land and Plants
To Be Used to Build Defense
New Orleans Navy Yord and Factory
In West Virginia to Be Operated

The President revealed a survey
was being made of all unused Gov
ernment land and plants which
might be f1t for operation in prose-
cutting the new defense program.
Asked whether the West Virginia
plant would be reopened to ascertain
a yardstick on prices for armor plate,
the President said it was not needed
for that purpose because it was easy
for the Government to determine
whether private prices for armor
plate were fair.
Mr.. Roosevelt also said the Gov
ernment was trying to cut down the
time between appropriations for and
completion of new Navy ships. He
thought this was altogether too long,
and said one of the main reasons for
the delay was the rapidly changing
designs during ship construction.

HYDE PARK, N. Y, Nov. A.
President Roosevelt told a press
conference today that it had been
decided to reopen the New Orleans
Navy Yard and the wartime armor
plate plant in West Virginia.
He said the decision resulted from
a series of surveys, adding that the
latter plant would not be used for
armor- plate manufacture, but for
an unnamed Government purpose.
The President said that in round
ing out national defense expan-
sion, efforts would be made to util-
ize all unused land and plants
owned by the Government instead
of buying private property for the
work. thus effecting a large savings
for the Government.
