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

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."

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

35,000-mile tour of countries bor

Sunday for the University of Oregon
goodwill debating team when the
three members, Roger Alton Pfaff,
David p. Wilson Jr., and Robert T.

started seven months ago, the mem
bers held debates in Tahiti, Rara

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."

The woman who has trailed Rock
warns him against the Prestons,
Saturday, with new implications.
