WHAT
HAPPENED
BEFORE—
Buck Duane, quick on the draw,
kills Cal Bain in self-defense and finds
him self an outlaw. Flying from pur­
suit. he m eets Luke Stevens, another
outlaw , and the two become pals.
Luke narrowly escapes capture and
Duane is shocked to find his brother
outlaw severely wounded.
Duane buries Stevens. Then he goes
on to Bland's camp, whwere he gets
into a fight with a man called Bos-
om er and wounds the latter. He
m akes a friend of an outlaw at Bland's
called Euchre, who tells him of Mrs.
Bland and the girl Jennie. .
Duane m eets Jennie, and prom ises
to try his utm ost to get h er away
from Bland’s camp. To av ert suspi­
cion, it is planned th a t he pretend to
care for Mrs. Bland. Euchre intro­
duces him to the la tte r and he en­
gages in conversation with her.
Evidently the outlaw 's wife liked
Euchre, for her keen glance rested
w ith am usem ent upon him.
Buck plays the game, making Mrs.
Bland think he leves her. To avert
Bland's suspicion, Mrs. Bland pre­
tends to her husband th a t Buck has
come to visit Jennie. Bland urges
Buck to become a regular m em ber of
his outlaw gang.
A quarrel later develops In which
Duane kills Bland and rushes off witb
Jennie afte r a terrific struggle with
Mrs. Bland. He plans to leave Jennie
In good hands until a relative or friend
Is located, and then go on alone on
th e trail. He keeps careful guard over
her.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORV
---------
About the middle of the afternoon
Jennie awoke. They cooked a meal,
and afterw ard sat beside the little fire.
She had never been, in his observation
of her, anything but a tragic figure, an
unhappy girl, the farth est removed
from serenity and poise. T h at char-
acterlstlc capacity for agitation struck
him as stronger in h e r this day. He
attributed it, however, to the long
strain, the suspense nearing an end.
Yet sometimes, when h er eyes w ere
on him. she did not seem to be think-
Ing of her freedom, of her future.
“Thls tim e tomorrow you’ll be In
Shelbyville," he said.
"W here will you be? she asked
quickly.
“Me? Oh, 111 be making tracks for
gome lonssome place," he replied.

Why we buy from Western Electric
It is the aim of the Bell System, of which this company is a
part, that anyone anywhere in the country may telephone to
anyone anywhere else, clearly and without delay. This is the
meaning of u m v e r t a l t e r v i c e . To provide it, the means of tele­
phoning m ust be uniformly good.
All of the Bell System companies obtain most of thetr sup­
plies from the W estern Electric Company, which acts as the
manufacturing and purchasing departm ent of the system. T he
volume of business thus centralized, enables the W estern Elec­
tric Company to secure great economies in manufacturing, pur­
chasing and distributing, which economies are reflected in its
prices to the Bell System—and consequently in a lower cost of
telephone service to the public.
W estern Electric Company’s prices for telephone supplies to
the Bell System are materially lower than those of other sup­
pliers. As a result of its arrangem ent with the W estern Electric
Company, T he Pacific Telephone and Telegraph Company
saves in price and service at least $3,000,000 a year. This is
important in keeping down costs to customers.
As an added protection to the public, the W estern Electric
Company s main storehouses and distributing houses, placed at
strategic shipping points throughout the United States con­
stantly carry upward of $30,000 000 of supplies ready for’ ship­
ment. These storehouses and stocks enable the W estern Elec­
tric Company to m eet the needs of the country at times of
catastrophe regardless of the extent or location of the damage
In Oregon, W estern Electric keeps an average of 85 people
employed in furnishing and installing telephone equipment.
O ur ideal is the same as that of the public we serve —the
most telephone service and the beat, at the least coat to the user.

A further im provem ent
in braking perform ance is
