herd clustered around a success

butte.
Brain busy, O'Shane watched
in the moonlight. Before he could

over the border (. unless 1t was

A light breeze, pungent with
sage scent, famed his cheek-and
answered his unspoken question,
With a chuckle. he scrambled
down and headed back to his pony.
Striking wide circle. he rode
to windward of the buncned COWS.
Dismounting a mile from the
water hole, he again crept for
ward, until he could aear the
voices of the night hawks as they
lounged around their fire He was
NOW in the thick fringe. of brush.
AS he expected, dead wood, finder
dry, Uttered the ground.
lCROUCHING beside the rust
~ ling branches Of a aead ocatil-
10, he. scraped together a pile of
sticks. Ten PAGES to the left he
built another pile, then a third.
In quick succession, he fired
the three piles. and. darted off in
the direction of mis- pony.
A yell of alarm rose high above
| the complaining of the herd as
1O'Shane stumbled through the
sage.
A roaring, scarlet line of fire
| advanced towards the frightened
cattle with a menacing roar.
| Above the alarmed believing
Of the milling mass of cows,
| O'Shane heard the shouts of
Brazos and his gang as they held
the surging herd of panicky cows.
Sitting easily in the saddle, the
| redhead waited expectantly for
the break. 1t came with terrify-
ing suddenness. Tails high, bawl-
ing fear maddened cascade OF
cows spilled through the circling
riders like a flood through a
broken dam, and headed for the
desert. An uncomfortable mass,
they plowed through sage and
mesquite in blind panic, fianked
by racing riders, vainly trying to
turn them with booming Ass.
Heading back TO Piute Valley,
O'Shane heeled his roam into a
gallop.

REGRETS WILL BE MANY

news item in The Citizen yesterday,
about business men in Key West who pur-
chased houses so that they would have
places where their employees could reside.
affords an outstanding example of the
acute shortage OF housing accommodations
in Key West.
But. in that connection, this thought
comes 10 mind; What condition will pre-
vail here after the war is over?
Let every resident answer that ques-
ton to his own satisfaction, yet he will be
unable to get away from this fact: thou
sands Of people who have come to Key
West to engage in defense and other work
since the beginning of the war, will, when
there is no more work, return to their
hometowns
The truth should make every Key
Wester, particularly if he owns real estate
here, do all in his power now to assure us
go-gettng city when the war comes to an
end. But is that power being eXerted? EX-
,ept in few isolated instances, we are, in
stead. concerned almost wholly in piling
10 as much money as we can while the
harvest is at its peak. Be frank with our
selves, and we must acknowledge the truth
If that statement.
Now, when the war is over, there will

hen putting away fair-siZed amount this
week and going several weeks without saw
ing another penny.
A large percentage has been spend
ing wages or salaries as fast as they have
been received. The Citizen has been told
of several men, who, 10 years ago, did not
have dime for a sandwich, who have been
earning large sums during the boom days,
and who have no more money now than
when they went to work And few have
not only spent all the money they have
earned but have gone into debt also. Prob
ably they are opponents of the ''splurge"
element, that is, those people who have
had little to spend in their lives, and now

1900 MILES AN HOUR

The prediction that aircraft will travel
1000 to 1900 miles per hour, within the
next 10 or Is years" comes from Pevton
Magrdder, who designed the B-26 Ma
Tauder medium bomber.
The engineer points out that the Ger
man w goes much faster than 1900 miles
per hour and travels 60 miles high. He is
confident that technical difficulties will be
licked and asks what would prevent YOU
from putting passengers in it and sending
them off on trip"
We have no answer, Such speed
through the air will eventually arrive and
1t Will be discovered that the human bodv
is constructed to take it."
