Pushing her horse through the shallow rlva rides fearlessly into a hail of bullets to rescuz an American who is fleeing from a band of Mcxican insurgents. Knowing the legder of the guen"nu she argues him into releasing ‘the Amgcrican, Blaine Howard, who says he has been a newspaper ccrrccpondent with Villa’s army, Dagger is impressed by How- ard’s self-assurance and non- chalance, while he admires her cqurage and spirit. As they h!* on the river bank, a cavaleade approaches from the ranch in cearch of Dagger, having heard the shooting. In the lead is Dick Welling, a famous Eng- lish pelo player until he lost an arm, and now a forcman of the ranch. It develops that Howard also has been a polo player and knows of Welling. Chapter 2 NO ORDINARY GIRL The leader of the cavalcade wayec a hand in reply, and it was eas} for Howard to see that it was hi only hand. Welling was a slim bronzed man, his light hair burnec lighter by the sun, his blus eyesyCertainly she was no ordinary rhlhir lvivid against the tan, the hardness of his expression minimized by. a mouth as tender as a woman’s. “What mischief have you been up to, Dagger?” he hailed. “We heard shots.” “Jose Martinez and.a bunch u’ Villistas were chasing Mr. Howard here, Dick. That was all.” “All?” There was irritation in Welling's tone, “If I catch Jose—" “I'm afraid I'm responsible for the whole busins interposed Howard Wcmng glanced at him keenly. “Been smuggling?” “Oh, no,” the girl spoke up. “Mr. Howard is a newspaper correspon- dent, and Pancho wouldn't let him go—'fraid he'd give away their border connections.” “And our friend Jose would have hid me ‘cold, if this little lady hadn't appeared,” amended How- l'Fl “Tye fromlsed Mr. ald Dag er. ¢ him?” surveyed Howard’s rangy, figure. “Play, do you?"

You must feel like a bite.” He. waved the cavalcade for- ward. “How'd you happen to be Mexico?” he added. And this time it seemed to Dag- ger as if it was Howard who stif- fened slightly. “Oh, got tired of civilization,” he said, “and a pal of mine offered me this chance to see how the Greas TS tight. But I'm for France, now.” A big, stoop-shouldered old man, whose leathery features were adorn- ed by a ragged, walrus.moustache, stood in the doorway as the caval- cade approached the ranch house with Dagger in the van. “What yew wn up to, Dagger?” =|he ded. “We heard shootin’ over by the river.” “Climb down, Uncle Jim,” she re- torted airily. “I heard shooting and in talked Jose Martinez out of work-1 ing the ley fuga on this gentleman here, Mr, Howard,” l)v Mary Dalnll)erg vch?” he drawled, a sardonic ter in his steel-blue eyes. “Waall, i get the ley fuga worked on one of these days, if yew don't v off monkeyin' with them Greas- Here we are, Mr, Marley," said ling, as the rest of the riders w up. “This is Mr. Howard of v York.

You know what the world is like—out there.” Marley poured four glasses of |the oily spirits—three sizeable ones, Howard observed, and one half as full. This last he extended to Dag- ger. “Yore good health, sir,” said the old ranchman, bowing to Howard. “Hear, hear,” assented Welling. “Mr. Howard,” added Dagger, and tossed off her portion without blinking. Howard suspended his own drink. “Say, that—that’s whiskey.” Welling smiled, and old Marley “Good whiskey don’t hurt ncbndY. sir. I always aimed to bring up | Dagger like she wore a boy.

Magazine writers who spenc + week or two in a few coast citie nd then go home to record thei impressions, say that China is be- coming air-minded. But those who have been here longer say that this is true only of the generals. Civil- tans have no use for the contrap- tions which shower destruction upon them. Bombing raids have been made on walled towns and cities in Ho- nan, Shantung and Kwantung prov- inces where much of the fighting in this year’s civil war took place. Hundreds of homes were demol- ished and many non-combatants killed and wounded. Both the Nan- king forces and the northern reb- els under Governor Yen Hsi-Shan and Marshal Feng Yu-Hsiang staged raids. The appearance of the airplanc in Chinese warfarz has been sud- den. A year ago Nanking had only a few observation planes in its service and not a rebel general in the whole country had a bomber. | Purchases of the bombers followed development of commercial aviatior last summer. One reason for the use of planes! :an be found in the experiences of the Chinese in the dispute with Russia ]asL fall.
