He mumbled. "Seems like I made copies of all the papers, on account your pappy was a friend of mine, and I kind of had some funny notions about that deal my self." He sat down at the table again and with shaky hands un tied the pack. He looked through 1 some of them while Rossy looked through the rest Thar'a the conveyance," Lev erage said, and spreading it on the table, he read It "Um-mmm. I. said then hit was in good law, and j I say again hit's still in good law. This original was the handwrite; of your paw. Bossy.

That had all been worked out between him and the noges. at that time close to tha (family. But no one could foresea tha levente of the Fourth of July, and latter that all Steve would have no QO was make his claim and pos- m uie property. "That's what he's dona! jthtaks because I'm in college I'm wug 10 jearn too much, get too mart, and he has to timber off Ithe stuff and sell it to clean up While he can. Afterward, in case . got it dsck, would could I do .about it anyhow? The dirty scoundrel!

"Well, one thing certain, I won't marry you then, Steve!" "Yes, and another thing certain if you got wit enough to get a college education, which I doubt I wouldn't have you on a Christ mas tree. Me, my wife's got to be ignorant" "It would take that kind to be fool enough to marry you!" The two passed, while Rossy withdrew in the bushes, watching. 'So, after all, Hannah had been going to see Cousin Steve. It must have been important The hunger for murder had gone out of him. But he did have to get back to Lincoln as quickly as possible and see If he could get a lawyer to tend to this land matter. It was not clear in his mind what would have to be done. But Steve could not have his land. Steve could have Hannah, but nothing else. a a a A LONG time before day on Monday morning he was up, had breakfast by lamplight and rode through an Icy dawn down the valley. The week-end had cheered him. He wanted to get back to college. Yet when he finally reached the bus station on the main highway, he found Hannah there, too. It was their misfortune to have to take the last two empty scats, and all the way down to Lincoln campus they sparred and chewed the rag, always just ready to take a slash at each other's throats. That trip wore Rossy to the bone. He was never so glad of anything in his life as when the town loomed up, and he saw the bus station at the comer of the cam pus, and felt the bus slow for the stop. Coach Hurd stepped up to meet Rossy. He nodded and grinned at Hannah. He took Rossy aside. "I've got to see you right away, McAfee. Something's come up something mighty Important tint can mean the biggest thing in your life. Come on over to the gym and I'll tell you all about it" (To Be Continued) ORIGIN OF THE SANDWICH In order that he might not lose time, the Earl of Sandwich, a great gambler of the 18th cen tury, had food brought to the gambling tables. To do away with eating utensils, he had meat placed between slices of bread. Thus originated the sandwich. Battles Cold World OUT OUR WAY By J. R.
