We'll own the world!" "Own the world?" Alan's dark brows lifted. "When we have a good talk, you'll understand," assured McCord. "Heather, Alan and I are going to set the net at the island. We need fish for the dogs." The girl's fine brows drew togeth- er as she looked her disappoint-ment. "Why can't I go, too, dad? You'll take Alan away and stay till supper." "You'll have plenty of chance to see him later. We've got some plans to talk over now." Alan followed McCord down to the canoe wondering if the story he was about to hear would shake his faith in the man he had promised to accompany into the blue tundra that rolled away into the north. But what did it matter? He was in the same pass as John McCord. By tricking and deserting the police, he, also, had become a hunted man an outlaw. They paddled up to the island and set the gill-ne- t in the thoroughfare on the side of the nearest shore, where the fish traveled at night! Then, lighting their pipes the two sat down on two small boulders fac-ing each other. "First I want to know about the police and Noel and how you got away with the dogs," said McCord. "I told them we had met you in the headwater lakes of the Mad Riv-er. So Noel and I took them there. We always camped with water be-tween us to keep the dogs apart. Four nights back, Noel started for "The name was strange. She's "s:ed fveral. It was her knowing S" McQueen. Alan, those are not police!"

Alan, my lad, and she's their partner, but they're not police." "And you're not wanted by the government?" McCord slowly shook his blond head. Then he asked: "Did this Mrs. Hanbury look like a murdered woman to you?" "A murdered woman? What d'you mean?" "You heard I was wanted for the murder of my wife." "Yes." McCord gazed across the river up to the shoulders of the tundra above the forest as he said bitterly: "Mrs. Hanbury is my wife." "Your wi Heather's mother?" A heavy load suddenly lifted from Al-an's shoulders as he realized what this startling revelation of John Mc- Cord meant. John not an outlaw a wanted man!

"I knew what you were when I first looked into your pinched face, Alan. I knew you'd stand by. You have. Now I want you to hear my story." And so, there, on the shore of the Talking, John McCord told Alan why he had come into the heart of Labrador, bringing a girl of seven-teen on a strange quest. The years preceding the World war had found him living in a small town in Ontario with a young wife and a little girl. Occupied as a timber superintendent for a pulp and lumber company, he had been compelled to spend much of his time away from home on va-io-us timber limits of his emplrrrers. Pleasure-loving- , his wife chafed at his absences, at his limited means. Rumors reached him of her actions in his absence, but he brushed them aside. By the time the war broke out she had left him and Heather. She loved life in the cities and went and found it. Leaving the child with his mother, he enlisted and went over seas. For two years he served in the same battalion with a man who had been a prospector and had talked much of his wanderings from the Yukon to Labrador. After Messines Ridge, where he got the ugly gash on his forehead, McCord found himself in the same hospital with his friend, Aleck Drummond. In Montreal, before the war, Drummond had met a Hudson's Bay man who had once been sta-tioned at Fort Chimo, at the mouth of the great Koksoak River which rises somewhere In the heart of Labrador and flows north into Un-gav- a Bay. "I see, now, why you asked me to talk to Dessane about the Kok-soak and the River of Skulls," in-terrupted Alan. "Wait a minute and you'll under-stand," replied McCord, continuing his narrative. The fur man had been told by some wild Naskapi, who once came to the post, of a branch of the Kok-soak called the River of Skulls, be-cause of a battle between Koksoak Eskimos and Naskapi, in which they had wiped each other complete-ly out. Later, then Indians found the bodies, they were afraid to bury them because of the moaning of the spirits of the dead in the gorge above. So the skulls and bones lay strewn along the shore and flats. After this the Indians called it the River of Skulls, and the gorge, The Gorge of the Spirits, Manitou Gorge. "That's exactly the same story Dessane told me!" observed Alan. "Yes, but listen to this," returned McCord, and went on with his tale. One year some Naskapi, more daring than the rest, were camped on the sand flats that reach a long way below this gorge, spearing cari-bou, for the deer were crossing here and the Indians overcame their fear of the spirits to get the deer. They had built a fire against the roots, full of clay and gravel, of a spruce that had come downstream and grounded on the shore. The heat of the fire softened the blue clay stuck to the roots and one of the Indians noticed some small stones, as he thought, in the clay. He was fooling with them when he realized that the small particles were much too heavy for stones. He scraped off the clay, and pounding them found them malleable and dull yellow in color. These he brought to Chimo and showed to the Hudson's Bay people. They were nuggets of pure gold. But none of the company men could get away to hunt gold in the interior. It was a long chance, any-way. This story the Hudson's Bay man told to Drummond.

Inarticulate from the shock of his surprise, Alan allowed his pipe to slip through his fingers to the peb-bles of the beach. The nightmare through which he had lived had proved, after all, only an ugly dream. "It's wonderful, John, wonderful to know you're not a wanted man!" he cried. "I'm as dazed as a bear in a dead-fall- ! I can't be-lieve it! It's too good to be true! McQueen Slade, putting it over on Fort George that way! Oh, what a joke on them all! What a joke on Noel and me racing them through the ice to reach Neil Campbell!" Alan laughed until he was breath-less. Then he suddenly sobered, as a look of such bitterness crept over McCord's desolate face that Alan quickly shifted his eyes to the riv-er while his friend battled with the painful memories. For a long space they sat in silence while they smoked. Then McCord drew a deep breath and turned to his friend. "Not knowing what I was mur-derer, crook, hunted by the police, you stuck by me through gratitude, the forks with the canoe and, at daylight, I struck straight south cross-countr- y with the dogs to warn you. And here I ami" McCord's eyes lit --with approval. "Here you are and you've walked with a heavy pack to get here." "No, I had to circle some lakes and swamp country, but I had little trouble making it. Tomorrow we must drop downstream to help Noel up river with that canoe load." McCord nodded. "You left them, you say, where they couldn't find their way back to the main stream without a guide, in weeks?" Alan laughed. "That country's a network of lakes and muskeg. They're likely to get into Whale water and be on their way to Lake Bienville before they find out their mistake. They'll be lucky if they don't strike the freeze-u- p before they get out." "Good boy! You did a good job on them, Alan. Now let's get back to Fort George. This Sergeant Mc- Queen, as he calls himself, would be about five feet, ten. He's thick-set and rugged, carries his head a little forward and what you'd notice about his face, except a mean mouth, are his eyes too close to-gether and a faded blue." Alan's jaw dropped in amaze-ment. "Why! You you must know him?" McCord exhaled a cloud or to-bacco smoke as his eyes wrinkled in an amused look. "I ought to know him," he said drily.

JAMES 11 ICHARD CONNELL'S "The Most Dangerous Game" opened as a yacht sped through the warm waters of the Caribbean night Two men sat talking about hunting trip to South America. Whitney commented that it is a good sport (or the hunter, but not so good for the huntee, to which Rainsford scornfully asked, "Who cares how a Jaguar feels?" At a late hour when Rainsford sat on deck alone smok-ing his last pipe for the night, he heard shots in the dis-tance. Yet they were miles at sea. He re- - 1 J membered that the Elfiaboth sailors had been jit-- James tery all day and that this part of the Caribbean sea had a bad name among seamen. Curi-ous, he stepped upon the rail to hear better; his pipe slipped, he reached for it, his foot slipped, and in a second's time, he found himself in the warm water. Discovers Chateau.

Using his knowledge of the RICHARD CONNELL Richard Council Is among the Twentieth century American au-thors who have Included vari-ety of types In their writing. Newspaper work, editing, and stories for the cinema are among his activities. "Apes and Angels" and "Mur-der at Sea" are two of Mr. Con-ner's well-know- n stories. "The Most Dangerous Game" was pre-sented on the screen several years ago. Mr. Connell was born in 1893 and received his bachelor's de-gree from Harvard. During the World war he served in France with the A. E. F. chase, he found signs of a recent fight and picked up a trail which led him to a chateau. Rainsford knocked. The door was opened by a brutal looking Cossack who answered nothing but grimly brandished a gun. Presently down the wide stairs came an older man. "I am General Zaroff," he said. The next few hours were so strange that Rainsford felt himself to be in a horrible dream from which he would awaken and find relief. After receiving the best of clothes, food, and all other com-forts and luxuries he discovered his host was a maniac. Dizzy and sick, Rainsford went to his room and began to think of escape. But his door was locked. Rainsford's Three Days. Next day the servant came to Rainsford's room, explaining that the general slept late on the day that he planned to hunt in the evening. Ivan gave the quarry a pair of moccasins, a knife, and food and water for three days. The bar-gain was that if any man escaped for three days, he would be set free. At first Rainsford went in cir-cles. But in the afternoon when he knew it to be only a matter of hours before he would be cornered, his instinct of 6elf preservation began to function. Eventually he climbed a tree and stretched out along a limb, so that he could see. That evening Rainsford saw the hunter cautiously examining every bent twig, every stirred leaf. With-out faltering, he came toward Rainsford's hiding place, until he stood beneath the tree. The general laughed and walked away. ijihe next day Rainsford tried an amateur trap, but it failed. Dog Is Killed. There was still another day to live through. With maddened fury the hunted man dug a Malay tiger pit, placing sharpened spikes in the bottom and concealing the pit with a covering woven of vines and leaves. Watching from the hiding place, he saw the hunter come swiftly as he followed the scent of a blood hound on leash. There came a crash and scream, and the general called out, "Rainsford, you have killed my best dog. I'll see what you can do against the pack." There was no minute to waste. Fastening the knife to the top of a sapling, blade up trail, the man bent the sapling down to the ground and set his trigger. Hiding again, he watched the general coming with Ivan holding the pack. Seconds dragged until there came a yelp and shriek. Ivan fell to the ground. Feeling that his game had cheat-ed. General ZarofT returned to his chateau and dinner. That night as he prepared for sleep, he opened the windows to see the night sky. A sound behind him jerked him around to find Rainsford as a de-mon unleashed. "One of us will be food for the dogs tonight!" he cried, springing. He had never slept in a better bed, thought Rainsford, the next morning. Bell Syndicate WNU Servict.

Moth Levies Vast Toll in Damage to Textiles; Annual Loss Is $200,000,000 of a fine woolen dress, suit or other material and these hatch into tiny worms or larvae, which do the dam-age. Larvae feed upon wool, hair, fur, feathers and materials manu-factured from them until they are large enough to form cocoons, from which more moths emerge. The best method of preventing the hatching of eggs is to brush thor-oughly, air and sun at monthly in-tervals, all articles that are subject to attack. Fortunately the eggs are extremely fragile and that's why a thorough brushing and rubbing will generally destroy them. Over two hundred million dollars of damage to clothing, bedding, car-pets and furniture, is the annual moth toll in the United States, says Popular Mechanics Magazine. Of the three common kinds of moths generally seen, the most harmful webbing clothes moth- -a one is the little one having a wing-sprea- d of about 'i inch.

Most Famous Dogfight The most famous dogfight ever staged in the United States took place on a farm near Louisville on October 19, 1881. The match, held for a stake of $2,000. attracted a large number of "sportsmen" from many large cities and created much betting throughout the country.
