Joy made her want to cry. Her Ia
ther said a girl shouldn't cry. But
goliy, there were times when
She blurted through her
thoughts: Just a big cake and a
bigger stomach-ache.
Sandra dressed for dinner with
painstaking care. She put on one
Of her own designs, a russet crepe,
its only trimming a yoke that ex-
tended over her shoulders onto the
sleeves. This was embroidered with
emerald and topaz colored stones.
With the dress she wore russet
shoes, -hand-tooled and embellished.
"Say!" exclaimed Spenser. His
scrubbed cleaning face showed an
F.,proval the girl had never before
seen there.
"You like this dress ?"
"Rather" He added, as they
went toward the kitchen: ITS
small wonder you gave yourself a
breakdown, Sandra. Designing and
making such lovely gowns must be
quite a task"
~Yes." Quite a task! How right
he was, thought Sandra Edwards.
II the work could have been all. But
the worry and the rivalry-the en-
nifty actually-and the reverend
ing rush.
Sandra knew, when she saw Be-
linda, that she was wearing what
Brody would call a pretty little
dress" Undoubtedly the old cowboy
had bought It for her. II was fow-
cred and had. besides. an artificial
flower corsage at the neck.
There was a sash, with rosettes,
and she wore a pair Of shoes with
straps that criss-crossed, reaching
no particular destination. Although
the happiness In the little girls
face made you not notice the dress
too much, Sandra understood Why
Lewis and cowboy shirts were a
'favorite garb.
That happiness did not leave Be-
linda's face except when she looked
at the two guests, Sandra felt, II
anything, the child was showing
deeper dislike than she had before
her father came. It's a form Of jeal-
ousy, the red-haired woman kept
telling herself. Yet she knew 1t was
something more than that.
There was no dinner table con-
versation. Only shop tall: between
Gordon Adams and his men. Alfal-
ia, oats, grazing, water, the mar
ket, the shipping and all such.
Brody, carrying dishes Of food and
fresh pots Of coffee, paused often
to Join in. Belinda did not seem to
mind that the men. ignored her.
Sandra did mind bit, that Is. she
minded being neglected by Gordon
Adams for, although she attempted
to deny II, she had dressed for him.
But three days passed, and still
he gave her neither time nor words.
Undeniably Brody knew what he
was talking about when he had
said his boss hated women like pol
son.
For that reason, when the ranch
owner suddenly accosted her on the
fourth day. with a smile that pro-
claimed them on excellent terms,
Sandra was fiabbergasted.

Appetizing Meal Sells
Nutrition to Family

Appetite and eye appeal sell nu-
triton to the family. Fruits and
vegetables offer varied textures, fla
vors and bright colors that make a
meal interesting. For crisp texture
and the most vitamin c, serve vege-
tables and fruits raw frequently. To
keep colorS bright, and to conserve
vitamins, cook vegetables just till
tender, and serve at once. Vegeta-
bles cooked to dingy brown mush
are ugly and retain little food value.
In planning meals, try to work
interesting contrasts, crisp cabbage
slaw with baked beans, crunchy
toast with soup, chopped celery with
peanut butter as sandwich filing.
Avoid serving all watery vegetables
at a meal or more than one starchy
vegetable. Garnishes give food eye
appeal and flavor accent. Try pars-
ley, watercress, green pepper,
pickle, dash of paprika But color
Of foods themselves contribute, like
the bright crimson of tomatoes on a
cool bed Of salad green's.

Boxer Us. Slugger

Past records of the ring have
usually shown the boxer can hold
his own against the slugger. Jim
Corbett proved it against John L.
Sullivan, looking back some SO
years.
What about Corbett and Fitz at
Carson City? Well, don't forget that
Ruby Robert could box as we'll as
punch. Fitz in fact was great box.
err. Jack Johnson was another able
boxer, one of the best.
What about Jack Dempsey and
Gene Tunney, used as the leading
example of boxer VS.. puncher? They
fought 20 rounds of which Tunney
won at least 16-possibly more.
But don't forget that the Dempsey
of Philadelphia and Chicago was far
from being the Dempsey of Toledo.
Seven years on top take their toll.
Sam Langford was a great fight
er and a great puncher. But check
