Chapter 22 ,-' ' Anxlou Waiting KAY woke up with (tart, u a ray of the early morning iun alanted through her cabin window and shone insistently in her eyes. "Thank goodness the sun's out at last!" She glanced out the window, then snuggled down in bed again to indulge in a few moments of tempting day-dreams. It was the third day since Ted had left, and Kay planned with happy excitement the way she would greet him, when he arrived with his mother and sister. She had recovered from her hurt feeling at the news Tom Bunyon U 1 '", VV ,7,1 A Shi Somehow Kay knew he had brought of Ted's first fight with Scrap Johnson. Whatever reasons he had had for not telling her, she was going to give him the benefit of the doubt, and wait until he was ready to tell her. Kay smiled drowsily to herself. One thing she was sure of He hadn't been thinking of any dark haired girl when he nad said good by to herl And somehow, she knew that he wasn't going to waste any time getting back to her. During the storm that had raged for the last two days, Kay had busied herself getting the extra cabin ready for Ted's mother and sister. It had been furnished in a rough sort of way. By picking out odds and ends from the bunk house, and using some of the few things that had been saved from the Ore, Kay had contrived to make tt quite homelike. Babs had ridden over once in the downpour to report that all was well at the Fying Six, and that Aunt Kate and she were In no hurry to leave their present quar ters. A frown puckered Kay's fore head as her thoughts shifted from Ted to the situation at the Flying Six. It was galling to be accepting Josh Hastings' hospitality for members of her family, even If she wasn't accepting it for herself. She hadn I seen him alone since that visit when she had told him of her plans, with such near-disastrous consequences. One good thing, at least, had come out of It She had positive proof now that Josh Hastings was working again', her. The doubtful point was whether he knew that she was aware of his efforts to get the tim berland away from her. Unless Scrap Johnson had gone back and reported what had nap. pened, Josh Hastings would have no way of knowing whether Kay had known of his plot. And Kay hod a hunch Scrap wouldn't be too eager to describe that afternoon's events to his boss. He'd be much more likely to realize his useful ness on this range was over, and to clear out. At least while Aunt Kate and Babs were under his roof, it would be best to pretend ignorance of Josh Hastings' real attitude toward her. Also, it would be easier to Keep her eye on him, if she didn't let matters come to an open break. Finishing Up The Cabin JUMPING out of bed with a sud den desire to express her ex cited anticipation by action, Kay O.S.C. ENTRY DATA OORVALU8.

Dates of freshman week at the Uli fOUcct and UUlver&Uy will bo hurriedly dressed and ran up to tne mess snacK ior oreaiaast, Ted and his family probably wouldn't arrive before noon, any way, but there were still a number of finishing touches that she want ed to put on the cabin. Giving an involuntary skip of sheer joy of living at the beauty of the morning, Kay drew in a long breath of the invigorating air. After the two-day downpour, everything was so fresh and glis tening, that it must be a good omen. The morning flew past, and bj noon Kay had the cabin completely finished, and bright and shining for its new occupants. She had a guilty feeling that she should have ridden over to see Aunt Kate instead of devoting he: whole morning to the pleasant ex citement of getting ready for Ted But- she eased her conscience by the thought that she would go ovei after the arrival of the newcomers, so that she could tell Aunt Kate all about them. All during lunch, Kay had an eat out for the pounding of hoofs, and rattle of the livery buckboard from Red River, but the quiet of the mesa was undisturbed. The afternoon wore on, and by four o'clock Kay found hersell nervous and irritable with disap pointment If she watted any longer, it would be too late to ridf over to see Aunt Kate. She'd nevei hear the end of it if she let all to day go past without seeing her. On the other hand, she'd be sure IT t ? ' it t . ,v was coming lack to her. to miss Ted if she started off now. Artlessly persuading herself that it would be very rude not to be there to greet Ted's mother and sister, and that seeing Ted hlmseli had nothing to do with it, Kay hung around. When, finally, at six o'clock the mess bell clanged, Kay reluctantly admitted that they weren't going to arrive today. He'll Be Here' AT SUPPER, she was silent and abstracted, dwelling in hei thoughts rather than In the con versation going on about her. Sud denly she was aware that Seth wai speaking to her. "What did you say, Seth?" She came to with a start. "Gosh, you must be getting deaf!" Seth grumbled. "I've been asking you about six times when you expected Gnynor back. 1 thought it was today." "It was, but something- must have happened to delay him. I'm sure he'll be here tomorrow." "Here's hoping," Seth growled. "We can't let any grass grow undci our feet getting that barn started I'm going to start cutting timbet tomorrow, whether he's back oi not" "He'll be here," Kay predicted confidently. She paused a moment at the door of the shack and looked out. "Isn't it great after the rain?" "I'll any it is," Seth agreed. "The equinox must have got kind ol mixed up this year to give us that storm so early. But I ain't kicking none. Makes the danger of fire that much less." Kay nodded absent-mindedly to this remark, then sauntered down to the corral and whistled Flicker to her. Obeying a sudden Impulse, she had him out and saddled him. She rode up to her cabin for her sweater, and headed out onto the mesa. She had decided to kill two birds with one stone, and ride the restlessness out of her system by going over to see Aunt Kate. Kay started off for the Flying Six at I brisk cam trot It would be moonlight by 9 o'clock, she reflected, and she could easily be back by 11. If she didn't go now, she'd simply have to go tomorrow, and then she'd miss be ing there when Tec!

Prohibition of slavery was one of the first laws laid down by Oglethorpe In his colony, an unusually humane decree lor that day and age. Yet, strange as It seems, Oglethorpe had previously been one of the most Im portant figures In the slave trade aa head of the Royal African Company, greatest slave-trading corporation of the timet At the height of the slave traffic, 10,000 negroes were exported annually. Oglethorpe also forbade his settlers to engage in the rume trade. This edict was widely violated almost Im mediately. Later the prohibition against slavery broke down when the blooded stock.
