"I've got. to see this Garvin of whom you tell me," he said to the girl, "Where is his 'outfit? Has he got a ranch hereabouts, or is he more likely to be found: in the nearest town? What's the name of that town, by the way?" " "He lives in the town of Luna Roja," she said. "But it is a dan- gerous place to go, senor--and more dangerous when it is the Scunor, Garvin you seck, "He has set himself up as a . banker in Luna Roja, where he has a white-plastered adobe home that is much like a fortress, and it is there he has his bank, He lives there most of the time, and hie is" well protected, because he has a host of killers who serve him, and whe live in the block- houses which form the corners of OF REVENGE JACKSON+-COLE "the patio of his house. His guards are on night." "Maybe I can manage to get by 'em somehow." Valdez said evenly. * * ' duty aJwiys day and He turnad from her to give his attention to the gear he had taken out of his blanket roll, and which must now bé disposed of in some other way. Tying the legs of a pair of riding breeches together, he stuffed the gear into them, then removed his leather chaps and used them to make a sort of AS impromptu valise, to be tied wilh his reata. / With the chaps a he stood there in the tight-fitting concha-trimmed trousers Medican don. They had an effect with his charro vest, But it was not that that made Juanita stare at him, then at the gear still at his feet. One of her slender, browned fingers pointed wordless- Ivy to his. head, and swiftly he placed a hand-to his hair, In the black wig that he vore had become displaced, and "from beneath it showed strands of gleaming red-gold hair, : : GER + With a twist of his lips he swept the wig from his head and tossed - back the waving reddish mane. T1en, as he saw that Juanita's eyes wavered to the last of the gear on. the ground at his feet, he picked up ~ the silver-decorated jacket that lay there, shrugged out of his charro vest and replaced it with the dark velvet jacket. From the ground he al picked up a bright scarlet #Sash which he wound about his slim waist, mak- ing sure that his wide gun belt and holsters were in place. His last move was to tic a matching scarlet scarf about his neck, And it was as much as the red- brought fear to the hearts of mis- " creants, and gratitude from those he "had served" El Caballero sRojo =the Red" Cavalier!

Then. her lips moved in awe as she said, barely above a whisper: "Iil Caballero Rojo!" She could not be mistaken, she knew, for that red hair, the scarlet sash and gaudily decorated garments, and above all, the red kerchief around - his bronzed throat, could belong "to only one man--the avenger of ~ \ girl Jew. whom every Mexican "border had heard! : Chance had. shown to Juanita de Cuevas who he actually was, * this friend in need. who had so suddenly appeared from. nowhere, But it could not be helped now, ' He had intended to enter this, val- above the ley in his role of wandering va- quero, but what he had seen here had changed his plans, and it might be just as well that this , "Where can you go now, Jua- nita?" he asked with concern, "Have -you. friends----" : Slowly she turned and faced him, And what she said left him speechless fo a moments, "I will go, senor, with you, You havesproved you are my one, my only amigo. Where you go I will go. I will be your follower, your servant, to look out for your wants." Courage and firm resolve were in her soft voice. "But you can't do that, Juanital" Valdez exploded, startled. in that proud, defiant gesture, - "You "a going to Senor Garvin," she said firmly, hat is what you. say. You mecan to bring him to pay for what he has done "to me and my people. I know, though you have not say that much; for everybody knows that Ia sce wp selves, But this fight--it «is as much mine as yours. I go with you."

The girl looked up at- him, her great dark eyes accusing. "You do not intend to come back," she said quictly, "Even if Garvin, or his men do not. kill you, and as you say you 'take care of him' you do not intend to come back, - Senor - Caballero." : Michael Valdez smiled down a her, but he did not answer, He waved his hand and touched El Ciclo lightly with the spurs, send- ing. the mount down 'the trail. He could not answer her, because she had spoken the truth, - No, El Caballero Rojo did not intend to come back for Juanita de Cuevas, * * * "- El Paisano Valley, as Michael Valdez had already discovered, was in one of New. Mexico's rich- est ranges, though so. remote that it was as yet lttle known, At its greatest width it was about twenty miles wide, and there were few of the badland terrains that often break up the virgin 'wealth of cattle-raising and farming lands. On the other side of the. first foothills, though, Val- dez had already learned from an was. as it was possible $6 conceive.

RE TS To "LUCK: It is not easy for one who does not know you to diagnose your bad luck with young men. Most girls who are popular are smmacu- late in appearance, neatly dressed, do not use too much make-up. They attract boys by being good listeners, and dow't monopolize the conversa- tion (boys love to talk about them- selves). The girls who have the most dates are usually good at sports--tenms, swimming, dancing, etc--and so they are welcomed by everybody in their group. They are loyal to other girls, dow't gossip. And they don't show how eager they are for dates.
