Jersey Print
And Velvet
Combined
BY JOAN DEAN
IF WINTER COMES

IF WINTER COMES =. can
Spring be far behind? We are
convinced Spring can't be far
behind when we see the Winter
season dress shown, with its re-
fresbing Spring details.
Much smart styling is
achieved by the combination of
materials and color blending.
Here we have the sheen of
velvet cleVerly contrasted with
the suppleness OF silk jersey.
THE SKIRT is fashioned OF
Jersey print in whirl-a-Way all
around pleats.
Large flowers in cerise and
brown are predominant on a
ground of off white and delicate
green.
The skirt is attached to an
extra long blouse and gives that
little-girl, short-skirt look.
THE DARK brown velvet
blouse. has tricky lacings of jer-
sey cord climbing from skirt
nearly to the shoulder on either
side.
Quarter-size self-material COW
cred buttons effect the front
closing.
There is a pointed turn-down
collar Of the bright print, sleeves
are short and slightly widened
at the shoulder
MAKING A DRESS a cos
tune depends on the choice of
the right accessories. For this
we chose dark brown felt
pompadour hat with two large
felt flowers 10 top h
A brown veil floats down over
the face or may be worn turned
back over the flowers.
Because the dress is gay with
the print. very little jewelry is
necessary. The bag. shoes and
gloves are the same dark brown.
Fine material and high-styling
at the remarkably reasonable
price OF S16.95 for the dress and
$685. for the hat.

show-unless he can get the Crying
Wolf"
Slowly Lew Gordon got a frayed
tally book out of his back pocket.
"The survey" Lew Gordon's voice
was curiously bewildered-''it s hard
to believe there's any land as good
as this
Their private survey had been
made by Bill Roper; it represented
weeks of hard riding, and shrewd
calculation of the strength and depth
of the feed upon the surface of the
broken land.
lone place here reads fifty head
to the section" Lew said wonder
ingly. Fifty head of cattle grazing
one section of land! It's past be-
lief"
sThis isn't Texas, Lew"
II figure we might pay as high as
thirty cents to the acre." Gordon
said, "by the years lease"
A flicker like that of heat lightning
showed for a moment behind Dusty
Kings eyes; but his voice was low
and monotonous as before. Thirty
cents be damned" he said.
Lew Gordon looked at him for a
long time. How deep you figure to
go?"
"Get the land" Dusty King said.
"Ben Thorpe is liable to go crazy
and bid his head off,"
'tWe're looking down his throat"
King said for the second time 1.-THE
least the deputy commissioner can
accept is drafts on Kansas City. Ben
Thorpe hasn't realized the value of
the land. Wen catch him short and
force him off the board"
''At what cost to ourselves?" Cor
don demanded.
SAT all COSTS
Slowly Lew Gordon shook his
head. maybe thirty-five cents an
acre"
Dusty Kings voice rose explosive
ly for the first time. "T'hirty-five
cents" he echoed-"or fifty cents,
or seventy-five, or dollar! Get the
land!"
Lew Gordon sighed, and he looked
like a man who was weary and old.
"You want that land" Gordon said,
"even if"
"At all COSTS" Dusty King said
again.
Gordon looked his partner in the
eyes.
"Go in and bidl"
Swinging down the board walks of
Ogallala in the cool spring sunlight,
Dusty King and Bill Roper looked
whole lot alike. The more than
twenty years difference in their ages
had not changed Dusty Kings loose
jointed swagger. the rakish cock of
his old soft hat, nor the cracking
ring of the spurs he was believed to
sleep in.
The trail years had leathered his
face, but they could not diminish his
gay exuberance; just as prosperity
was unable to take from him the look
of the trail Whatever Dusty King
wore, he always appeared to be
wearing disreputable saddle clothes.
Perhaps young Bill Roper had
picked up lot of Dusty Kings char
acteristics in the course of an asso-
citation that had lasted almost as
long as Bill Roper's life.
Everybody who knew King-Gordon
at all knew the story of Bill Roper
and Dusty King. Fifteen years ago,
at the age of five, Bill Roper had
been found hiding in the brush, like
little rabbit, beside wrecked outfit
on the old trail to Sedalia. It was
Dusty King who had found him
there; and it was Dusty King who
had buried the bullet-shattered body
of Bills father beside that God-for-
saken trail.
In the fifteen years since then,
Bill Roper had learned guns and
horses and cattle, and the tricks of

Bill Roper saw Lew Gordon's eyes
flick up to look at Dusty King.
"Cleve Tanner?"
Here in Ogallala."
What the DEVILS the meaning of
that?"
stCleve and Walk Lasham are the
only two of Ben Thorpe's men that
raided the cross timbers with him in
the old days; the only two he can
really trust, now"
"It's natural that Walk Lasham
should be here" Lew Gordon con-
ceded; sbut Cleve Tanner, all the
way up from the Big Bend"
"Shows you," Dusty King said,
what store they set on the Crying
Wolf lands. Ben Thorpe is sold
mighty deep into next years deliv-
cries Already he's committed for
more northern-fed cattle than he can

"Fifty cents" said Dusty King.
Ben Thorpe's face had turned
curious color. not gray. certainly
not bloodless; an odd congested coll
or, like dark sand. ''Fifty-fve," he
said.
Sixty"
.'Sixty-fve."
"A dollar said Dusty King.
"A dollar, five"
"Just in confidence between YOU
and me-" Dusty King said: 'sMr.
Thorpe can't pay that"
Il think my name is good any,
where in the cow country" Thorpe
said to the commissioner.
ut amt good here" said King.
The deputy commissioner slapped
his pen down on the table. Gentle
men," he said, "Tm sorry to do this:
but in the interests of the govern
ment, and of the Indian Department
which I represent, all further bids
in this auction will be accepted only
as representing American gold"
"Cash on the nail?" King asked.
Ia" There was no question now
about the. sweat that stood out on
the commissioners forehead.
Seventy cents" said King.
"I'm already bid dollar, fivel"
"Sure; but we got different rules
now. God knows Thorpe can't back
a dollar, five in gold. What kind
of shenanigan is this, anyway"
The eyes of the deputy commits
sioner went to Ben Thorpe's face
again, but there was nothing to be
read there. Thorpe seemed so
lumpishly still that it was not ap-
parent that he breathed.
Seventy cents" said Dusty King
again in the silence. "Whoop 'er
up, boys-Ive only begun!"
Silence again through the pack of
those saddle-faced men; perspiring
silence on the part of the deputy
commissioner, dead lumpish ST.
lence on the part of Ben Thorpe.
Cleve Tanner, his hands locked back
of his neck, looked at the ceiling:
Walk Lasham sat motionless, his
eyes on the face of his boss.
you" the deputy commission
er wavered, "you-you can back this
bid in gold?"
Immediate delivery by Wells
Fargo" King said. Right now, in
Ogallala."
"Mr. Thorpe" the commissioner
wavered, "Mr. Thorpe. will you-do
you"
They waited for what Ben Thorpe
would say. His face was express
sionless still, as he got up from his
chair; but men stumbled over each
other to get out of his way, as he
walked down the length of that
packed room, and out into the street.
The deputy commissioner seemed
melted down, unrecognizable now as
the crisp little man who had opened
the bidding. His face was white
and set, and his eyes showed fear.
"Well?" said King.
'The Crying Wolf" the commits
sioner said huskily. "the Crying
Wolf lands-if-if there are no 9TH
er bids-go to King-Gordon :"
Something like a sigh, a general
release of tension, ran through that
| jam of men.
Close to Dusty Kings ear Bill Rop-
er asked, out of the side of his
mouth, How high would wo-how
high could we have gomez"
The mask of Dusty Kings face
broke up; every muscle in his face
came into action, every tooth
showed as he grinned.
Seventy cents" King answered
