IN THE days which followed, Ju
dith sometimes would mingle with

a stool, swinging her booted legs
which wouldn't quite reach the foot
Tall, she would Join In the conversa
tion of Goodwin and Larson, but bcr
ears would be attuned to the voices
of the other mon In the place.
, Contentment was apparent In tho
calm, cheorful tones ot tho mon who
filed Into Hamburger Joe's, or tho
Elite Cafe, or tho Gulf Sea Food
Restaurant,
Tho first change In tho voices
camo not In a nolo of discord, hut
one ot aurproBBed excitement. With
tho wlvos ot two enginoora slio was
having dinner at the restaurant.
Talk at the (able was spirited and
Judith was dividing her attention
between a tonderloln steak and tho
conversation, when she caught ono
word spoken In the room beyond,
"Oil."
For ono distracted moment alio
thought of Justin Cunard's words as
they made their air survey of tho
basin: "This looks like oil land but
I hope it isn't."
Motioning the others to go on talk
ing she slipped closo to tho next
booth,
"They're bringing the derrick uud
machinery in on tonight's train , . .
got mule teams to drug it on up to
tholr layout . . . sure thing . . . don't
lot on you know; we'll slip up mid
seo it thero's any claims wo can lllo
on, or buy up, eh?"
Judith returned to tho table, eyes
wldo with nnxlety. If oil uus funnel
on Scnthborno's properly, nho ftsued
for !ho llio Diablo dam.
"Max, I've got to get word to
Cuimrd."
OIL was tho ono thing that could
stampede tho dam workers; tho
ono thing Judith feared. Mini Scath
borno actually found definite trnco
ot oil, or was this Just another ot
Lampcro's Ideas to destroy tho liar
mony In HIg Tom Town?
Still at the table, sho conlldod to
Max what had happened ami lm,
seuaUivo to her loruslglit, anree.il
that Cunard BhouUl bo notitlul at

Investigate.
"We might go down to tho train
nnd Bee if they're telllm; tho truth,"
suggested Larson, and hurrying
through their meal, they proceeded
to tho camp depot.
This night tho engine pulled flats
behind her freight cars and on tho
Hats woro ongines, pipes, lumber,
and drums of fuel oil.
Shadowy llgures jumped from the
cars, communicated with shadowy
llgures on the road side of the depot.
Mule teams backed up, their drays
oven with the Hats, then the ma
chinery, oil nnd lumber woro trans
ferred. "Oil . . . them's tho makln's of oil
derricks." Tho whisper went fVo
round at tho depot when t ho tram
came In. Judith regretted Dig Tom's
- magnanimous Insistence that his
spur operate as a general cnrrlor.
"Oil . , . whero do you suppose

People began running up from the

Joined their party and moved uphill
to Judith's shack.
"It looks Hko the real thing,

in a dofonted voice.
"Suro does," agreed Max Larson.
"Evon Lampcro wouldn't buy ox

"How will It effect the dam?" Mrs,

"It needn't," began Judith, a quiv

"No need crossing bridges 'till w

Judith nooded.
"XJO NEED," she repeated, looking
down on the town from her
porch after tho others had left. The
quietness of harmony lay thero. A
singlo figure was plodding uphill
with a peculiarly determined gait.
Judith walehod, expocted him to

he plodded on towards hor.
Not until ho was even with hor

when ahe did, sho felt a rush of
fear.
"Mr. ScoHRlns," she cried, and see
ing tho expression ot his faco,
"what's wrong?"
"I'd liko to talk to you. Mi.ss Ju

"llko to talk over souio business
with you."
"Coma in . . , take that other

"I ain't lookln' for comfort," ho
answered, slowly, "not for myself.
Kor my wife and my Tommy, that's
different."
"(it course," Judith answered
quickly, "your ihought has always
been or your wife and Tommy. I re

Tommy on the Iioubo the river

now ami not have to worry, can't
you. Mr. Sarins?"
"That's what I've come obout," ho
said, then sat silent.
Judith waited Impatiently. "You
said you'd como to seo mo about

"Miss Judy," ho began, "have you
over been hungry? I mean really

"Not like that, Mr. Scoggins."
