sand had blown across their trail.
In another hour Linnet knew they
were completely lost. They stopped.
Kay began to whimper and ask
for water. Wed better conserve
our water supply" Linnet suggested.
Her own throat was parched, her
tongue dry and swollen. Ted, in the
act of handing Kay the canteen,
took it back, his face suddenly grim.
Kay screamed at him.
Ted got off the horse and took hold
of the rein. IF we keep going east,
We'll eventually get somewhere. J"
They started once more. Kay at first
kept up an insistent plea for water.
Presently she subsidized and slumped
in the saddle Linnet rode up along
side and steadied her with one hand.
Decides Direction.
When they stopped again, Ted in
sisted that Linnet take drink. Then
he took a short one himself. Kay
was doing and he screwed the cap
| back on the canteen without rousing
her. He and Linnet talked in low
tones about their location. WED bet
ter bear south little" she said and
smiled reassuringly. He smiled back
and picked up the bridal rein.
The next hour was torture Linnet
found it necessary to keep her mouth
open to make room for her tongue.
Frequently she dozed, imagining
strange sights, rousing herself with
a jerk. Kay began to babble hys-
terically. Ahead, Ted plodded grim
ly, stumbling now and then, pausing
to search the horizon.
Look! Linnet cried suddenly She
pointed to some birds. The birds
would fly into a ledge on rock
precipice, then away again. There
must be water there"
1t took Ted two hours to climb the
precipice. He found water, filled the
canteen. They drank it all, then
rested. Then Ted climbed the preci-
pice again.
1t was almost sunset when the men
from the ranch found them. Kay
was draped unceremoniously over
the saddle. Linnet was delirious.
Leu Had SUNK 10 MS knees IN the
trail
1t was late afternoon of the next
day when Linnet came into the
ranch patio. Ted was waiting for her.
Without speaking he took her hand
and held it for long time. Linnet's
heart throbbed, but her face re-
manned impassive.
There's no need to tell you how
feel,' Ted said. you know. I've
been fool. Such fool. Could you
forgive me, Linnet-enough to marry
me-now. Tonight?"
Linnet thought for a moment she
was having more hallucinations. But
when she opened her eyes again, Ted
was still there and she was in his
arms.

Capital Transit Asks
Auto-RaiIer Order
Be Vacated
CompIoint Asserts
1t Is Unreasonable
And 'UnIuwfuI'

District Court was requested yes
terday by the Capital Transit Co. to
vacate the Public Utilities Commis-
sion order of November 80 last, ar
ranging for a schedule into down.
town Washington from Rosslyn, Va.
for the Arlington g. Fairfax Auto
RAILROAD Co.
Justice Daniel w. ODonoghue in
District Court recently granted
Capital Transit a permanent in
junction against the Virginia car
rier being permitted to bring its
vehicles from Rosslyn in "destruc-
tive competition" with the local con-
Germ. The auto-railer company has
appealed this case to the United
States Court of Appeals, which is
expected to hear argument on 1t
shortly, after briefs are in.
The complaint filed in District
Court yesterday. through Attorneys
G. Thomas Dunlop and S. R. Bowen,
asserted that the Public Utilities
Commissions order be legally de-
clared unreasonable, unlawful. null
and void and that the commission
be held without jurisdiction to pass
or enforce it. The petition of ap-
peal, filed yesterday by the Capital
Transit Co.. contended that COM
pany would be adversely affected by
the order. 1t points out that in
writing within 80 days of the pro-
mitigation of the order it asked the
commission for reconsideration, but
that body failed to act on the re-
quest and is so deemed to have de-
MED it.
The order complained of, says the
Capital Transit Co., violates the
Merger Act of January IA, 1888. as
amended, and the commission has
no jurisdiction to grant such an
application until the railroad COM
pany obtained authority to operate
in interstate commerce within the
District of Columbia from the In
terstate Commerce Commission or
until it was determined by compe-
tent authority that no such authori-
cation was necessary. The COM
plant contends this has not been
done.
The court was informed that the
commission had no authority to
issue the order complained of. as
the auto railroad company had no
authority to conduct the contem-
plated operations in the District. 1t
contends that the order is unlaw-
full and unreasonable and will enable
the auto railroad company to oper-
ate bus line for the transportation
of passengers over a given route on
a fixed schedule in competition with
the Capital Transit Co.

sickened her ever since Kay had
arrived at the ranch two weeks be-
fore. No one guessed how she felt.
Least of all, Ted. She was sure of
that.
Sometimes her cheeks burned with
shame when she imagined that he or
any one else suspected how COM
pletely she had believed him. how
completely she had given him her
heart. Too late she realized that in
his sophisticated world a man as
handsome and eligible as Ted Heath
was apt to make love to every pretty
girl who chanced to cross his path.
Well, he had certainly lived up to
the reputation. The moment Kay
Ruea had arrived on the scene he
dropped Linnett like hot potato.
When she had become aware of
what was happening, Linnett's only

at least she had, at first, SO con-
vinced herself But as the days
passed she became less sure. She
found herself watching him and
Kay; she was increasingly aware of
the hurt inside of her. She was, of
course, a fool Take this morning,
for example. Heading home from
the three-day camping trip with the
fuckers and the two cowboy guides,
Ted had suggested to Kay that they
try the short cut through Devils
Gulch. Kay had agreed and Ted
had turned to find Linnet watching.
He'd said: Come along with us, Lin
net" And Linnett, to spare herself
the torture of thinking about them
alone. had replied: why, sure. I'll
come"
Presently Ted lifted Kay to her
feet. She was still crying, but he
grinned. More frightened than
hurt. I guess" He left her and re-
turned to the tortured horse. One
glance at its shattered leg and he
drew the revolver from his belt and

idea of rubber on the tips of Crutches.
Records of the United States Patent
Office show that in 1858 Gallahcr
screwed what he called IAN elastic
bulb" on the end of crutch. There
was nothing scientific about the con-
struction of the bulb, nothing lntrl
cate. 1t was Just ball of rubber, but
that little ball was enough not only to
keep crutches from slipping but to
open a new era of increased safety to
all those who depend on crutches for
their locomotion.
Different ways of using the rubber
we're tried. In 1862 Joshua Whltmore,
of South Reading, Massachusetts,
placed the rubber within metal
socket tip which, when screwed into
the end of the crutch. grlpped the
rubber like a wise And when. three
years later. George Allamby and John

spike went in and out through hole

venience at best. But to the man on
crutches it is a blessing that should

In attempting the rescue of some
body else, the principle of distributing
the weight is paramount. Crawl up to
the hole on your stomach and instruct
the victim about the crawl kick and
the roll. Don't let him attempt to
climb out - and break the ice.
In human chains" hold only one
foot of the man ahead. each man

anchor man use a strong knife,
skate blade, or something of that sort,
which can be dug into the ice for
firm support.
1t is foolhardy, of course, to go out
on ice of undetermined thickness. But

necessity, to test the ice, or for some

should 60 through, the pole win
simplify getting out if you place the
ends on the ice at either edge of the
hole, thus further distributing your
weight.
Obviously, the best advice to
winter-sports lovers is, stay clear of
thin ice or of doubtful ice

and go in, try to remember that count

thing before - and lived to laugh

to know just how to handle them
selves in that emergency. And since
ice skating is enjoying such a universal
revival, mishaps this winter will
doubtless strike a new high in both
comedy - and grief Hence a timely
warning
Going through the ice is not such
frightful experience, per Sc. The real
danger comes from the individual or
group panic that ensues. Thrashing
wildly around in the water, heavily
clad. exhausts person quickly. And
his futile efforts to get out, which
simply result in breaking more ice.
generally lead to unreasoning fright.
The very first thing to do if you 60
through is to lean forward on the edge
of the ice with your arms spread out,
maintaining typical crawl kick
(swinging your legs up and down from
the hips with your legs in the water.
In this position you can get mental
control of YOURSELF; you can think over
the situation and the next steps; you
can call for help if anybody is near.
You are reasonably safe because the
crawl kick helps keep you warm; it
prevents your legs from floating up
under the ice in front of you; and it
helps distribute your weight so the ice
won't break further.
If no help comes, you have two
alternatives. First, you can proceed
to break your way toward shore if the
distance is reasonable - say, 100 feet
or less. Or. second, you can try to roll
out of the water as distinguished from
climbing out. The technique of the
"roll-out" as taught by the Boy
Scouts is to: /. Continue the crawl
kick as you edge yourself forward with
the upper part of the body resting
quite fiat on the ice. 2. When the
hips reach the edge, swerve sideways
quickly and, arms extended over the
head, roll rapidly away from the hole.
And keep rolling for some distance
before attempting to stand erect, for
ice too weak to hold you when you're
on your feet will often hold your
weight when your body is horizontal.
The soundest advice for skaters, of
course, is nerer skate Alone Go out in
parties. And be smart enough to
provide the party with 100 feet of
clothesline, and ten-foot pole.
