She could not even see from where Darkness stood, so prompt and so efficient had been his action. But she must see. Sonyas lips set, as they did when she faced a crisis for her skill, and she dismounted and, dropping Darkness rein, went forward carefully the few steps that separated her from the sheer edge of the canyons mouth. Taking off her hat, she carefully leaned along the rock until her line of vision reached the open and the plane. And what she saw bewildered her more thun she had been before. The Blue-eyeone was off Un dOro, and one man was on the ground beside him, while another was bent down In the after cockpit. This one rose, as she looked, and gave something to the other, who In turn handed It to the rider. And he, with care and swiftness, put it In his saddlebags. Three times the transference of something from the plane to Un dOro's saddle took place. Then the stranger climbed back In the forward cockpit, the plane, which had never stopped Its engine, roared a moment, slid along the sand a little way, picked up Its tall and took off. And Un dOro was loping away, headed for the town. After a long while'Sonya climbed back on Darkness and went soberly home. She had much to think about and was doing it with a vengeance. For one thing, why had the feel of this mans arm across her breast, the nearness of his face, shot through her so strange fire? Once before his arm had been about her, dragging her from Darkness back, his face had been W.N.U. SERVICE and cruelties? What connection did he have with those awful retributions across the Border of which the Servant had hinted? Whnt did the strange old man know about him? The henchman of Eeelzebub he had called him for no other In all this country answered to the description of the Blue eyed One with Bronze-coloreIlalr. Sonya felt cold, as If a wind of portent had blown across her spirit And swift on Its heels a sadness came, the odd, unaccountable feeling of personal loss and sorrow which had assailed ner that night at Myra's. She shook herself, mentally and actually, and was angry at herself again, and when this man spoke she listened, forgetting. "Its always a good morning, Doctor Sonya, he said richly, when we see you here. You dont get dowD too often. You goin to the dance over to th Neidlingers next Satday night?

The Neidlingers always have such nice times at their ranch. Nice people." "Sure are. An th more th merrier, I always say. In the room behind the store a man stood where the first sound of Sony as voice had stopped him. The cigarette he had Just rolled hung unsealed In his fingers. Until the girl had gone out, until the last sound of her feet on the boards had died away, until the sputter and roar of the old flivver lessened In the distance, he remained so. Then he flung the cigarette Into the refuse barrel aod went on out the back WORLD IN GRIP OF DRY PHASE? While we are speculating about the possible causes of dry weather In our own region, we may note, for whatever it may signify, that In England they are giving serious thought to problems caused by falling of the water levels In streams, a phenomenon that has been developing for a couple of years now. That may be mere coincidence, but on the other hand It may suggest that conditions affecting a far wider area than Just our group of a half dozen dozen states are at work. It may be that the areas which now seem to be particularly wet, not dry, such as some parts of the "East, are the exceptions, and that either the whole world or at least the northern hemisphere is In the dry phase of a long time cycle. Everybody now knows, of course, that radical climatic changes do take place. That the Ice caps at the poles have advanced and retreated Is proven by the evidence of our hills and valleys and lakes and soil. Even some of the ancients surmised that there had been great climatic changes In Europe, by which the cold In central nnd northern Europe had greatly moderated. But these changes come over such long periods as to mean nothing to any single generation of men. Whether there really are definite cycles, subject eventually to measurement, whereby, weather conditions vary within a relatively brief period of years says a to dry cycle or a forty-yea- r wet to dry cycle It not yet known.
