"How do I make out this check?" "Well, v now" Mr. Jenkins hesitated "Wait a minute! Linda Gordon Gor-don was pushing forward. Monte thought he had ths colt, did he? She'd show him a thing or two. "Mr. Jenkins you said 'cash on the barrel-head no checks accepted ac-cepted If he can give a piece of paper she left the 'sentence unfinished. The auctioneer raised a hand for quiet. Hill turned to Linda. "You know me, Miss Gordon. My checks are good at Saratoga; are they good here?" Linda looked him straight in the eye. Said: "I'm okaying no checks I'm buying a colt, for cash." She glanced up: "Mr. Auctioneer, Auc-tioneer, do I get the colt?" Mr. Jenkins cleared his throat. Frowned down at Hill. "Mister, did you run that .colt up without enough cash, or a certified ?heck to pay for him?" "I don't carry that much cash with me," Hill flashed back. "My checks " "Don't want 'em, my friend. Last cash bid was eight hundred" the auctioneer went into his sing-song "do I hear the thousand?" thou-sand?" He did not "Sold! To the young lady, for cash on the barrel-head." The auctioneer jumped to the ground. Donald held out a hand to Linda; in it were four $100 bills. "You pay," he whispered. Linda put the bills with her money and, carrying out the ancient an-cient southern custom, laid $800 on the head of the keg.x "Here's your bill o' sale, Miss. Big Boy, give the colt to the lady, and bring out that nice little bay." ' QLD Sand Gordon took the halter-rein from Big Boy, led the colt to the 'fence. Linda turned away from the chagrined Hill, motioned to Donald to follow her. "Uncle Sandy, this is our partner, Mr. Donald " "Brown. Donald," the young man said, taking the uncle's gnarled fist. Brown Donald! Where had Linda heard the name? Somewhere in connection with this racing game. A tall figure loomed over them Monte Hill. He ignored the girl, the young man. Said: "Mr. Sandy, you don't know me, but when you were winning with Beau Mardi at Saratoga, Iwaaf a kid selling Birthdays Thursday, Oct. 6 Le GRANDE W. HOLLAND MRS. HERBERT HURST MRS.

But all's fair in a horse deal. He turned to Linda: "I caught on, that you two were joining forces. You've got an aristocratic partner, but I sort of wish you had teamed 'up with me." She smiled, too, but it came hard. "Maybe I would have, Monte, but you said women and racing don't mix." His face hardened, They don't." Brown Donald lifted eyebrows. "Don't, eh? " We'll show you a thing or two." "Show me?" "Yes, you." Donald spoke with a superior air. "ItH take more than a fancy steeplechase jock to do it," said Hill with finality. Linda shot a quick glance at the handsome youngster. So her partner was THE Donald; a gentleman gen-tleman jockey who rode at country coun-try club meets. One of the hangers-on of the moneyed aristocracy. aris-tocracy. Sofhe was trying to pick up a horse of his own cheap. That was iti Probably tired of riding horses for wealthy friends. Just then three cars came to a dusty stop in front of the sales barn. Bruce Radford jumped out of the first car, followed by a handful of prosperous - looking men. "Heh! You started the sale?" Radford demanded. "Waited over anhour for your crowd," the auctioneer complained. com-plained. "This here is business " "What about Golden Toy?" "Sorry," Jenkins shrugged fat shoulders.

Who bought Golden Toy?" "I did! That is, Mr. Donald and I together." "You and Donald!" He swept his panama off, ran fingers through thick, brown hair. He made Linda tlink of a fat kewpy a disgruntled kewpy. "Well, I'm darned! Since when did you team up with a " "That'll be enough from you, Radford," Donald said quietly. "Who spoke to you?"

There was no resentment resent-ment in his face. He turned to Donald: "You don't want to make any money either, do you?" Brown Donald looked at Linda: "We don't want his money, do we?" "No." "Colt's not for sale to you, Radford," Donald said evenly. "Now, you'll excuse us. Mr. Sandy, let's get going to your farm." Sandy Gordon and Brown Donald Don-ald led the colt off; Linda turned her back on Bruce and his crowd. Monte said good by. Then Brown Donald came back to her; he, too, was leaving. His eyelids lowered, he half smiled; again she felt that electric current. "Got to run up to Berwyn tonight; riding in a big steeplechase next week," he explained. ex-plained. "I told Mr. Sandy to give the colt some long, slow gallops; get ready for the fall steeplechases." steeple-chases." "Steeplechases?" She drew back. It seemed hard to talk i against his wishes. "This is a flat runner. We're going after the Jockey Club Stakes; then, the Derby next year." The man's face set in hard lines; again the current snapped off. "I don't think so." He spoke evenly. "He's long-legged; his mammy had stamina. I'm going to make a great jumper out of " "Oh, no, you aren't!" Linda's eyes flashed with purpose. "No?" He smiled; once more the girl was drawn to him by an invisible something. "We'll see. Well, I've got to catch a bus. Keep record of expenses; I'll diwy with you." He waved a hand, turned and left her. Straight ahead, old Sandy Gordon Gor-don was leading a spirited- thoroughbred. thor-oughbred.
