"Wherever you go, I am going. Is not this my fight, too? To what bet- ter purpose could I devote my life? I have nothing else to live for." "But you still don't understand," Valdez told her a little desperately, "I am going now to Dcep Water Valley, and there is much trouble there. There will be bloodshed, and you will be in danger. You must--" "Then we are going to Deep Water Valley," the girl answered "him, still calmly, and Valdez did not know how to handle such a situa- tion as now confronted him, Not knowing, there appeared only one thing to do. There seemed noth- ing for it now but to give in -- at least for-the time being. ' * * * Wken Michael Valdez made no further protest, the girl fell in be- side him on Pedro, and they rode "on, stirrup to stirrup. "Tell me about Deep Water Val- ley." she said presently. = "Tt is not a pretty situation there." i Valdez said, and his face clouded. "As 1 understand it, a man named Don Attero used to be a priest down in Sonora, Mejico. Once, when, there came a change in government down there, the new authorities didn't like him and told him that lie could not be a padre any more and told him he would have to get out. "He drifted up to Deep Water Valley with a good many of his former parishioners, and they help- ed him jet started again. Just so there would not be any wrangling over property, he kept the title to all the property in the valley that they had settled. But he's dead now, and without him to rule, it scems that some other folks have got ideas in their heads about the property, That's always a cause of trouble, and t ere is trouble there now -- plenty." Juanita nodded understandingly. "And you always seck out trouble," she said. "Is there no longing in your soul for peace?" He did not answer. His thoughts sped to a blind man in a mission far to the south. How could he know "that at the same moment the thoughts of the girl who rode be- side him were also of the same man, --and that her woman's intuition had told ber that the blind man's hope was that soon, soon, this son of his would know peace?

Valdez said to Juanita, "They point to the fact that the big boss of the whole shebang of crooks who have been'stealing one range after another is some man somewhere in Deep Water Valley." His lips tightened in the same grim mark of determination. "I've got to find that man. "There is another reason I want to go to Deep Water Valley, too. There is another man there for whom I have been looking for a long time, but not until recently did I have any idea where to find him. He is an hombre by the name of Train Carter. When I get the man who is the moving spirit back of all the devilment, and also get this Train Carter, I reckon my venge- ance will come to an end -- and maybe there will be a chance for some of this peace you speak of, Juanita, It can't be long now. We should get to the valley by tomor- row night, and then--" There was no need for further Words, The two horses jogged * * * Juanita, too, was silent a long time after Michael Valdez had fin- ished speaking. But what thoughts were in her mind would have sur- prised him. This man beside her, this champion of the oppressed, El Caballero Rojo, had stubbornly re- fused to admit it, but in her heart -she knew that he needed her now, and that from now on he would always need her. Their trails had finally converged and merged into one. " For she loved him. Subconscious- ly she had known it before she had ever ridden to the Mission of Corp- us Christi, but the blind man who would never again look at the light in a woman's cyes had opened hers until she had scen clearly into her heart. ' Ste glanced over at man, wondering what thoughts were now beneath his furrowed brow. "And so we go, you and I, side by side," she said in the soft voice that _somchow always 'soothed him, "to "Deep Water Valley? © Michael Valdez nodded. slowly and did not protest this time. For it scemed to him, without giving the matter conscious thought, that des- tiny must have ordained that this beautiful, half wild young girl should join forces with him in battle * for the riglet. * * * All day and all night Il Caballero Rojo and Juanita de Cuevas rode, like two crusaders of old -- until the beautiful spot that was Deep Water Valley was reached. It was another garden spot such as Paisano Valley had appeared to the rider of the vengeance trail when he had first set eyes on that green valley. Like two ghostly figures the rid- ers moved through the darkened hours, the low murmur of their voices blending with the night sounds. What they said, and what they planned, as they rode, covered all that could have been said be- tween them had they spent weeks in their planning. El Caballero Rojo was well used to making plans swiftly, and to putting them into action on the spur of the moment. Signals to be used between them when necessity arose were settled upon. Juanita's eyes, in the clear moonlight, were bright and shining the silent --|* ER Your Handwriting and You Alex Lif Arnott Your Signature The signature reveals more of a writer's character than other parts of the script. This is due to the number of times the writer will re- peat the same formation of script without making major changes to the strokes, letters or style of the signature. Thus the writer subcon- sciously forms a method of express- ing mental characteristics not other- wise shown in script that is not so frequently repeated in the same way. Most signatures are. written with all the truce elements of per- sonal feeling, pride and individu- ality the writer possesses, The detailist, that is the person who takes great pride in immaculate finish, will reveal this characteristic in the signature as shown in figure 1. Notice how clear the script is and the painstaking care used to completé the signature in the most exacting way. ; * * . Pronounced self-reliance is shown in figure 2 to indicate confidence and ability to meet new difficulties in a very independent way. The optimistic rise in' the writing is sufficient to confirm the writer's intention to rise above the ordinary things and to venture to new heights of purpose. You wil never find this style of signature in the writing of weakling, Intrigue, dishonesty, selfishness and other glaring characteristics are subconsciously written into sig- natures without the writer realizing that. he leaves an ink trail as an admission of character. } RB Letom -- | et-- Anyone wishing a more complete analysis please send self-addressed stamped envelope to Box B, room 421, 73 Adelaide St. West, Toronto.

Barclay Warren Loyalty Under Persecution Revelation 2:8-11; 7:9-17, Golden Text -- Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thec a crown of life. ---- Revelation 2:10. Of all the books of the Bible the | book of Revelation is the most dif- ficult to understand. If the seven churches addressed in chapters 1-3 symbolize successive periods of church_ history then Smyrna repre- sents the time immediately preced- ing the conversion to Christianity of Emperor Constantine. Many Christ- ians were put to death because they would not renounce their faith, To the persecuted~Jesus serids a mes- sage of encouragement and hope. He. reminds them that He died but is alive again. So, if they are faith- ful, though they dic for it, He will give them a crown of life. It is not "an casy way. Jews assuming to be- long to God are among their per- sccutors but, says Jesus, "Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer". "He that overcometh shall not be hurt' of the second death." By the "sccond death" He is refer- ring to the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone in which the cowardly, faithless, polluted, mur- derers, fornicators, sorcerers, idol- aters and all liars will have tlieir FE EE EE EE EE EE EE EE EE EE EE EEE "ing (and there will be soine), i's a | 'organization to deal with consumer are still busy enlisting members in | ANNE HIRST | Do's And Don'ts For The Bride SINCE writing rules for a bride- * groom recently, 1 have been <be- * sieged by engaged girls to offer * rules for the bride.

If you don't know much about his business, learn about it, if oily so you can listen intelligently.

It was precisely midnight when the cry of a mountain lion shattered thé tomblike silence of the valley, It floated out on the crisp night air -- 'a long-drawn sound, ghastly, and pregnant with warning. It seemed to beg for a like response from some spot in the valley. But there was no apswer -- at once.
