Blanche and said:

self! Now the rope'n get you. It's

Tete-Blanche thrust his leering
face close to Finlay's. The pupils
of his eyes dilated like those of a
snake. "You get de kiss from fly

he jeered. "Bonsoir, M'sieu' Feen-

The breed waved his hand across

was a ring of hammered gold.
"Bob's ring!" A storm of hate
beat through the man trussed to the
tree. He strained desperately
against the thongs that held him but

Blood burst from Finlay's split
lips as he flung back: "Sorry l
missed you, you yellow dog!"
Garry Finlay was alone with the
horror of the coming night. He
gazed through his fast closing eyes
at the rose afterglow above him.
Last sunset! Last twilight, Garry!"
he muttered. He filed his lungs
with the spruce-sweet air and looked
long at the black silhouettes of tree
tops etched on the horizon. "Slow
death from poisoning and shock!
Slow-death!"
He was young and life was good
But it was over, now! He peered
hungrily at the fading flush in the
sky. Last evening, Garry!"
He thought of the loyal Red and
Blaise anxiously hunting the shore;
of his family and of the grave on the
Waswanipi. 1.-TWO of US, now, Bob!"
he groaned. Hes got your ring! l

CHAPTER X

At intervals, in Finlay's brain
flickered dim consciousness OF his
surroundings. Through blurred
thoughts filtered the sound of voices,
only to die away. For, time and
again, the dull pounding in his head
drove him back into the abyss. But
gradually he CROPPED his way through
the mental twilight and was aware
of his splitting head and of an in
defnable torture. Sharp pains sliced
through his upper arms and legs. He
tried to move but his hands and feet
were numb. Something held him
like wise.
With difficulty Finlay peered
through the cracks between his
puffed eyelids. He was on the lip
of a bog, lashed to trimmed spruce
sapling. For time he stared stu
pidly at the four men with rifles
watching him. Then, into his dazed
brain shot the memory of the fight
IN the shore. So they had dubbed
him from behind? 1t seemed long
ago-very long ago.
They had him dashed hand and
foot with rawhide thongs, the vic
tim of clouds of black flies that
lowered around him like smoke.
What would they do? Shoot him or
leave him to be stung to death by
the flies and mosquitoes? Men had
died that way in swamps. He heard
again the crash of his AS, and his
tortured lips twisted in a smile. 1t
had been a fight while it lasted.
He'd got three - perhaps four.
They'd remember that! But the man
he wanted, whom he'd promised Bob
he'd get, stood there with a leer on
his hideous face under its thatch of
yellowish-white hair. He'd missed
Tete-Blanche. Beside him were Ba-
toche and two others, one a bow
legged dwarf with the darting eyes
of mink-Tetu.

barrister to the woman in the wit

We'll, it's like this. His first
wife's cousin and my second hus-

brothers named Jones, and they
were own cousins to my mothers

fathers on my mothers side, were

tainted Tete-Blanche. "Mosquit' he
start to make hees music. soon, and
you swell up like poison dog"
There was laughter from the three
breeds.
Finlay's face, neck and arms were
stippled with blood. On his head was
a lump left by the dubbed gun. His
eyes were almost closed.
"You win!" Finlay groaned. "You
win, now. but tell Isadore that q po-
lice plane is due here from Ottawa
in September. Mounted Police! Ever
hear of them? You win. now, but
you'll hang before the snow flies!
Think that over!"
The four breeds exchanged star
tied looks. Then Tete-Blanche stood
over the man dashed to the spruce.
The feral eyes in his grotesque face
with its broken nose glittered. Fin
lay had seen such eyes in trapped
wolf. "T'ree good men you shoot!"
he snarled. Now you pay for
dem!"
A wave of exultation beat through
the man who was about to die. He
had made them pay. Death held
little terror. He had looked it full
in the eyes before. But in the slow
hours of unspeakable torture that
awaited him he faced an end Of
which he had never dreamed. An
icy sweat burst from his body. But
what lay in his heart these men
should never see. He squinted
through the Sits which were now his

what have l done to them?"
With shiver he brushed her from
MS thoughts. Shame and chagrin
vanished. With his AS covering the
direction of the last sound it was
enother man who lay there, a cold
nghtlng man who waited like a cor
nered wolverine for movement in
the scrub.
Evidently, from the fact that they
had not shot him on the beach, their
intention was to take him alive.
Brush snapped behind him. His
eyes flashed back but saw nothing.
They had him surrounded but could
not reach him without drawing his
fire so were playing safe. For min
utes he lay rigid, listening.
Presently his rowing eyes caught
the green plumes of young spruce
shivering as if touched by wind.
But there was no wind. The spruce
top moved into the notched rear
sight of the AS. Again the spruce
qulvered and Finlay glimpsed pair
OF glittering eyes in swart face.
Like glass splintered by hammer,
the "b-rang!" of the AS crashed on
the silence of the bush.
There was no face behind the
spruce.
Zone gone!" Finlay muttered,
inching swiftly around to cover his
rear.
He was just in time. From behind
the boil of Jack-pine, eyes roved
the underground seeking his posi-
ton. Finlay lined his sights. Then
the full face and a shoulder edged
into view.
"Flambeau!"
Again the forest rocked with the
thunder of the As. There was
scream followed by stiffness SO in
tense it hurt the ear-drums. Then
the liquid notes of chickadee broke
the spell.
1.-TWO gone!"
But the jaws of the trap were
closing on the hunted man. His fir
ing had marked his position. He
must move Quick! Flat on his chest
he hunched to the sanctuary of an
other spruce.
From three sides came the snap
ping of twigs as the hunters closed
in on the hidden quarry. The eyes
of the trapped man blazed with the
fighting flame of beast at bay.
His nerves were ice as he knelt,
watching in three directions for the
rush that was coming.
Suddenly there were yells and a
thrashing in the brush. But the con-
cealed man would not be stampeded
into showing himself. Then ring
of men simultaneously rushed a few
yards, to fade. flattened to the
A slug from the AS had drilled his
forehead.
"Three gone!"
They're close in, now!" muttered
Finlay. 1.-THE next one will reach
mel"
Then five men flung themselves
at him. He found the white head of
Tete-Blanche and the AS famed.
Again it roared. They reached him
and he fired point-blank into GRIM
acing face. The face burst into a
bloody mask. With his heavy gun
he bludgeoned a black head that
dove at him. Free, he stumbled
back and swung at another. AS he
did there was a binding flash of
light in his eyes. He sagged to his
knees, then to the earth.

THE RECORD

This year 1910 becomes tonight a matter OF rec
ord and as we look forward to the future 1t is the
custom to give passing notice to the hghllghts OF
the closing year. In many respects our community
in Detroit has made admirable progress and the
group welfare has advanced. We have seen the
founding of several new enterprises and the IN
creased growth of our established businesses. In
politics our people have clearly asserted themselves
and increased their influence upon the state and
local governments and achieved greater representa-
ton We paid tribute in 1910 to our humble begin
hings in the SeTeHtyfipe Years of Negro Progress
Exposition" which served to awaken greater ap-
probation among all groups for the capacities of
our people.
Culturay and socially, laudabe efforts have
been put forth and our leadership has become IN
creasingly aware of their responsibilities to the
masses who are handicapped through lack of oppor-
tunities. Some of the vital problems of the group
housing, unemployment and racial barriers have
been intelligenty approached and attacked with
varying degrees of success There is apparent today
deeper concern on the part of civic and social
organizations to the part they wish to play IN
the creation of finer community. Our religious
leaders have been in the vanguard of the movements
to improve our lot and to stimulate the exercise of
our latent virtues,
We believe in brief that 1910 has been banner
year and that our community is materially and
spiritually richer today than anytime in the past
Thus as we enter upon the New Year we may have
with us a consciousness of increasing advancement
and as we proceed to build we may be that our
efforts will bear fruit There two sides to this
record but if we should balance the books of the
past we believe that our assets would be found to
be greater than our liabilities. In community to-
day there is no lack of confidence.

THE MODERN TEMPER

By their New Year resolution We shall know
them This may beea new and unfamiliar axiom but
we believe that there are few things more revealing
than the sincere detectives set for ourselves after
serious reflection. A history of mankind could easily
be written around the detectives and goals to which
people and nations have dedicated themselves from
time to time The goals we set for our lives whether
at New Years not, are attempts to rectify our
shortcomings and nadequacies and fight our own
weaknesses Our ideals change with time and cir
cumstance and to follow this change in the life of an
individual of nation is to trace the course of
its history.
The Great war in which half the world is now
actively engaged and which ultimately concerns ev-
cry human regardless of race or color is reshaping
the minds of all of us Great statesmen are today
saying with Father Divine, Peace it is truly
derful." Modern thinkers are now beginning to see
the errors of modern society which have led little by
little to the catastrophe abroad where the old ideals
and social philosophers are being dealt a crushing
blow. There is apparent great need for new guild
ing principles to meet the complexities of social
living What these principles will be is the concern
of rulers and statesmen everywhere.
Last week Five standards" for conduct
given the British government by the religious lead
ers of England. Heads of the Church of England,
the Federal Council of Free Churches and the leader
of the Catholic church in England came together in
this crisis and resolved their differences in the prep
araton of these five standards" which they believe
must be followed if England and the world hope to
reach lasting peace. These five standards are in
teresting to us as Negroes particularly because of
the recognition they give to the fact that the com
mon man regardless of race must not be exploited
and that no one can be denied his place in the
however humble These five detectives may serve
America as well as England. They are as follows;
az Extreme inequality of wealth should be
abolished .
q Every child, regardless of race class
should have equal opportunities for education suit
able to his or her peculiar capacities.
g. The family as a social unit must be safe
guarded.
