He moved on, Judith’s gaze fol- lowing. She thought of Cila’s re Mark that every woman who saw him wanted to take him home for - she didn’t blame them be intuitively right. y “Tell us another, Miss Lane, tell ‘us a storm-one this time,” begged a serawny girl of twelve, “I'm skeered of stovars,” she explained. ; Flashes of heat lightning showed weird mists riding furiously towards them and then a single jagged sttoke of lightning cut across the heavens, Quickly Judith improvised a iingle— “Old Mother Summer ts sweeping the sky, Hist tothe swish As her rain brooms brush by. Look at their handles all jagged and red, ..." The storm struck with a crash. Judith hesitated a moment and Tommy manfully took up the theme: “Dueck down y'ninnie: Or yl all git struck dead.” Judith didn't have time to remon- rate, The quick pelter of rain drops tad brought those below up on @ run and parents were gather. lag their offspring together and hustling them into the shelter of the queer rock formation which loomed like a ship-shaped tight house on the rim of the river basin.

Down throngh the basin they had just vacated came a wall of ter, foam ridden, lipped with debris which whirled over and under, over and under.

The Rio Diablo roared on. Judith, from | the shelter of Norman’s arms, heard them. She also heard the low moan- ing of the cook’s wife and half en- vied her the luxury of relieving her emotions.

Judith’s pencil intent upon a pothook veered upwards. Bang!’ Her neat bird’s eye re sembled a bird in flight, but.on went Big Tom's voice. He was standing now as if he could see through the murk of the night and the storm. and his voice held the timber of young manhood, of a vision newly seen. Judith didn't know when the storm calmed down, she was too busy. Big Tom was dictating at a rate which tested her speed. “The perfect stenographer,” chuckled Judith’s future husband. And then when her hand was cramped and her knee balan-sing the book was cramped, Big Tom stopped. Judith looked up. The inst volley of thander was zooming into the distance, fires of hoarded sige: br were being lighted, the aroma ot coffee and frying bacon mingled with the wood-smoké. Tension telated, but the natives’ spirits were low. Thomas Scoggins, Senior, their leader, the man who | had built rgest adobe house with even a private room for bis Tommy, and then had watched ft swept on down to the Gulf, came up to the expedition’s camp. “You see how it is, sir.” he sald with hopeless resignation in his voice, “We farm, and then if we get any rain at all ft comes like this and everything is washed away.
