' v iu the living room shn ran back, and forth excitzdly between father and mother. Both laughed and play ed' with her, entering into her games. With a sudden inspiration she got .down en all lours, proclaiming that chp was a great big bear, and invit ing daddy to play bear too. They had great fun, both down on all fours, i ' To Betty It seemed funnier and funnier. She laughed and laughed, "until; suddenly' hor, breath, caught. .tn, her throat with something like a sob. They stopped the make-believe then, but Betty went right on laugh ing more and more wildly until, an noyed by her father's efforts to calm her. she burst into screams and teal's. Children can stand just so much excitement, even of the pleasantest kind. Then ell at once their nervous control Enans, and they have some thing very like hysterics. Some parents regard this as sheer naughtiness, to be punished by cparri: lng. When a child thus has lost con trol, the only sensible thing to do Is to remove him from the scene of ex citement, and as gently as posslbls interest him In some quiet activity. It Is good even to leave him alone for a time, provided he does not re gard it as a punishment. In extreme cases when the child Is quite beside himselfl it is often help ful to undress him quietly, put him Into a tub of cool water and then to bed with a book o some favorite toy.

Spiritual Empire Now Set As Goal Of Duce's Regime ROME (tV) The black shirts still dream of empire, but In a spiritual rather than a military sense. At the same time, the "Joy(of obe dience" is stressed by government spokesment who frequently say that "the privilege of discipline" is tho cornerstone ol Italy. One of the last pronouncements or the late Arnaldo Mussolini set forth tho fascist policy in these terms: Brother Echoes Thought "Wo aim to create the state of mind necessary to build n spiritual empire. Imperialism may take any of various forms economic, military :or colonial, for example but that ' which is superior to all is spiritual Imperialism." At about the same time his famous ; brother, as head of the state, said to ptho, annual congress of fascist cul .tural Institutes: ',' " ' i "Cur concept of ' culture Is that it Is not a simple ornament of intelli gence, but an instrument In the fight for life and an arm of, and for, the regime." ! The Institutes are functioningin oil parts of tho country. Their aim is to diffuse political, economic and other forms 'of culture as seen from the j viewpoint of the Italian brand of fas cism. Speaking before tho Varesc in stitute Arnaldo said: I "We can not reduce life to statls- ' tics. We must allow for fallacies in all rules.. We are unitarians In poli tics, collaborationists In economics and humanists In our mode of exist- . once." Health THE NERVOUS HEART I It Is sold that "111 blows the wind that profit nobody."

Hock Hnds a mysterious track, ' Chapter 23 1 ,. BURLAP SACKS TUB Impression of the beel was well denned, but the toe part was dim. It pointed oil the road. Rock found another, like it, though not so plain. For his trained eyes the trail might as well hare been made In snow. It led Into the coarse white grass, to the edge of the culvert, where it vanished. There was no doubt In .Rock's nilnd that this lmnrlnt was Iden tical with" the one near Single's well. He had the little sticks with which he bad measured that track. His Instinct prompted blm to take a look at the julvert. He walked I on, stepping on atones. Tlio culvert was not the handi work qt niaaons. The aperture was large, to take care of a considerable flow of water during the wet sea- son. Crude walls of beavy stone ' had been laid about ten tept high and the same distance apart. Logs and brush bad been placed across I tho top. Above this a beavy layer ol earth formed the road. When Rock steppqd Into the mouth of the culvert he eaw a lumpy floor, which at first glance , ho thought consisted of rocks lying on tba dried mud. , 1 A foot track, the ono be was trail ing, brought a low exclamation from his lips. Rending quickly, with his little sticks be tried them. They fitted perfectly. Moreover, this one bad been made recently. When Rock rose from that track be knew what be was going to find. Tho tunnel nppeured nbout a hun dred feet long, with light shining In at both ends, and the middle dark. The numerous stones on the floor were ot uniform Blzo arid shape, aud be noted that the first ot theso lay back several yards from the opening of tho culvert. Rock kicked one. It was soft. Rending to feel ot It and to look at It more closely, ho ascertained that It was a burlap sack tied round something. Ho laughed sardonic ally. ; . . "Cowhide,'!, ho said, nntl wont on, kicking right and left. These stonc-lllto objects wore all hides tied up In burlap sacks. They wore old. Some ot them woro rolling. Then toward tho middle ot tho cul vert, where 'Hie bags wore thick est, lie found that those In sight were lying on a bed of bags, flat, de composed. AHogetbcr, hundreds, perhaps thousands of hides had been destroyod there. He delected a dry, musty odor, but it was not strong. Hock went back to the point wliero bo had found the hoot track, it was useless to attempt to .conceal his own trail. IIo reflected that in a few days now the rains would come, and with water running through tho culvert nil traces of his having been there would be oblit erated. If fresh cowhides had lately been deposited III this hldlng-plnco where were they? Rack from the opening It was difficult to see well. Naturally then ho reached Up to feci whero ho could not sec. He bad to put his toes In crevices be tween tho stones to climb up and reach over the top of the wall. When Rock's groping hand came In contact with a sack bo telt no surprise. It appeared to hold boat. Clrasplng It firmly, Rock dropped lo the ground and hurried with It to tho light. He ripped It open. Quick lime, hot and moist! A fresh cow hide, wrapped with hnlr Inside! With hands that actually shook Rock unfolded the hide. ' No slight thing was this proof of somebody's guilt about to be disclosed! The brand was clear a half moon. Rock had never henrd ot it. IIo rolled up tho hide, stuffed It In the suck, nnd put It back whero ho had found It. IIo struck a match. Dy the dim light ho saw rows of burlap sucks, neatly stowed awny. Rock sneaked out of that culvert and up to bis. horse as If Indeed he wcro tho sullty one himself. To ferret out rustler tricks and dis cover evidence of thieving practices on tbd rannc, had been part of Rock's experience. How vastly an other thing here! That boot trnek bad been made by Ash Preston. Rock kuew It. Cago Preston was growing rich by butchering other ranchers' cattle. The very least Im plication Rock accorded to Thlry 'roston was that she shared the se cret, and therefore Indirectly the guilt. And Rock loved her loved i Oregon Debaters . Return Froth Trip PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. , 4 tfP) A . 35,000-mile tour of countries bor dorlng the Pacific was terminated Sunday for the University of Oregon goodwill debating team when the three members, Roger Alton Pfaff, David p. Wilson Jr., and Robert T. Miller arrived in Portland aboard the steamer Admiral Farr'agut. . Purlng the tour on which the team started seven months ago, the mem bers held debates in Tahiti, Rara tonga. Now Zealand, Australia, Cey lon, India, Straits Settlements, the Philippine Islands, China, Japan and Hawaii. ' Approximately 175 pin smashers were expected to compete in the second annual Pacific Northwest Bowling classic In Seattle, beginning Jon. 3. her terribly now. In view of ber extremity. Rock had no Idea how tar this extraordinary dealing ot the Pres ton s bad gone. But it had pro ceeded tar enough to be extremoly hazardous for them, and lh tact for any riders connected with them. One remark Gage had made to Thlry had been thqugbt;nrovoklns. It might well be true that Asb Pres ton, having led or forced bis father Into criminal practice, dominated blm wholly. Rock must kndw mare, arid It possible everything; before be could formulate any plan to yn Preston apd savo Thlry. : "' . It was long past dark when Rock' arrived at. Wagoptongue. He went to tho Motel and to bedi Rested and fresh again, and with the bright gold sunrise shining iq bis window. Rock dared to pit himself against Ash Preston In anything. ' Least ol all did he consider Ash particularly dangerous to face In fair gtin-pUy. Ho was several years younger than Rock, and bad been only five on the range. Calculating on that, and bla own long experience, his lnstipct tor divining an opponent's intent, and his swift hand, Rock telt a cec- -talnty of bis power to beat Asb Preston to a gun and kill' hint: After breakfast, which Rock par took of rather .late, be went found to see Sol Winter. , . . ., . "Dog-gone, I'm glad to see you!" Winter said. , ' ' ' "Same here, pld-tlmer," replied Rock. "1 want to find qut some thin'." : .' ''What?" asked Winter, as Rick led blm back Into the store. "Preston drovq In here a couple of-days ago," went on Rock, lower ing Ills voice. "In the outfit wett three wagons 1 know ot. Ope was full of bides, which 1 helped pack. The other two were loaded with meat. DeovosI Now 1 want lo find out how many beeves there wore 4 , "Wul, I'll be darned If that aim tunny," ejaculated Winter, his eyes narrowing to mere silts. "1 shore can tell you right now that you'ro so damn keen about Itnowln'." "Good Lord!" exclaimed Rock, and ho sat down heavily. "Heard It quite by accident. 'I went on Winter. "Jackson, who runs Uabb's butcher shop, once worked for mo. Wat, 1 went In Inst night 1 scon a lot of fresh moat hangin' up. All I said was;V 'See you're stocked up plenty an' trosh.' .. f' 'Preston Is klltlrt how alto gether Instead ot sellln' any mora on the hoof,' Jackson told mo. 'He's gettln' thirty dollars mare hy klllln', on each head of stock. He'll sell to anybody. Today he shipped thirty-six beeves, Drlscoll told me. Shipped them to Marigold.' " Winter paused to see what effect this news might havo upon Rock. "Thirty-six!" muttered, Rock, with unreadable face and volco. "Yep. An' 1 counted ten beeves hnngln' up on Jackson's books. All . (rosh. So that' makes forty-six. What you want to know all this tor?" "Gee, Sol, you're a gabby old lady!" returned Rock. "Who runs the Half Moon brand?" "New cattleman named Hesbllt,' replied Winter. "Clink Peeples is foreman." "Clink Peoples. By gum! that sounds familiar. I've heard bis name, anyway. What does ho look like. Sol?" "Onusual tall puncher. Sandy complected. Eyes sharp like a hawk's, but tnwny. Always wears a red scarf. An' he's one of the gun-packln' fraternity. Clink will he In town shore over tho Fourth." "Red scarf? Ahum!" said Rock, dropping his head. "Weli, Sol, I'll run along, and drop In again." Reaching Dabb's new store Rock went In. It chanced that there was In stock a black broadcloth suit, with frock coat, which might have been made tor him. Rock pur chased It and an embroidered1 vest of fancy deslgu, a wblto shirt with riiflles In tho bosom, a wide white collar and a black flowing bow-tie .o go with It. - Rock carried his possessions back to tho hotel. While In his room he cut a pattern ot a mask out ot a piece of black cloth. What with a late dinner arid leisurely saunterlngs around town, tho day passed by. After supper Rock went out ic walk In the dark ness. Footsteps sounded behind him. A hand seized his arm. and a femi nine voice he knew rang under his ear. "True Rock, I've been on your trail all afternoon." fCopvrioit. Zane Grey) The woman who has trailed Rock warns him against the Prestons, Saturday, with new implications.
