Chapter 37 The Steel Nail Head ee deeper and strong- er than the jealous resentment that Kay had been cherishing took possession of her, and with a star- tied gasp she pulled herself up, as she suddenly saw the whole situa- tion in a different light. What did it matter whether he cared for her or the other girl? His very life was in danger, and she was doing nothing to help him! This vital issue surmounted every- thing else. What could she do? What could she do? Kay clenched her fists un- til the n bit into. her ‘palms. She must think of something! She Jay back and concentrated on all she knew of the affair, trying to piece it together, and turn it some way to Ted's advantage. In spite of everything, she still be- found, and fitted it into the gap. It matched exactly! Kay hesitated a moment, then reached up and put the gauntlets where she had found them, and tiptoed back to her room. Once safely back, she sank down on the bed, weak with the excitement of her discovery. if Her mind flashed to the possible consequences, but it was all confused to see anything clearly. However, one thing was certain in Kay’s own mind—Josh Hastings had been at the scene of the trag- edy and for some, reason he had su) “mig the fact. ie realized only too well, though, that her slender evidence would laughed to scorn, unl She*had something more subs' Hal to support it. _If only she could delay the trial!

She shut her eyes, and pictured again the scene of the crime, Josh Hastings’ remark about Ted having crawled to the water flashed back to her, with his hasty explanation that he had only been imagining it. His whole manner had been very queer, and felt again the conviction she had had then, that he knew more than he was telling. A fresh wave of resentment against Tom Runyon for having brought her to the Flying Six swept over her. To be sure, she hadn’t seen Josh Hastings since she had been there, but to te under this fresh obligation to him was decidedly galling. Even though she had not accepted his hospitality of her own free will, the fact re- mained that she had been under his roof all this time. She had thought it was queer that she hadn’t seen him, when she was better, but until today no one had told her anything at all. This news explain why he hadn’t cnet her out, He had gone to the trial to do everything in his power to convict Ted. “If I could only have a little more time!” Kay moaned, half aloud. There must be more clues that she could foilow up! A sudden memory of the tiny steel nail head she had found roused her. Getting up, she went to the closet and felt in the pocket of her leather coat. Her fingers touched the surface of the bit of steel, smooth on one side and rough on the other, where it had been broken off. Pulling it out she examined it carefully. She soon came to the conclusion thet there was very little help to be had from that. Nearly every- body on the range wore steel. there wouldn't be a chance. A vi- sion of the monument marking the divi line between the two ition suddenly. es- caped her, and she sat upright, her eyes brilliant with excitement. Breathing quickly, she ran over to the window and looked out. Aunt Kate’s rocking chair was empty, and the porch di 5 She hastily slipped off her dress and put on her riding clothes, Cistping her broad-brimmed hat over her gleaming hair, she ran to the living room, and quickly ed out some books she had n mull over the day before. She shuffled over several paper pamphlets, chose one and slipped it in her pocket. Then, saraing to the front door, she noiselessly left the house, and ran down to the corral. >") ‘No Break This Trip’ ;) WE.

Gornez’s mother had died in California, It was left entirely up to Lefty as to what he wanted to do. He de- cided to twirl ’em over and in do- ing so he snapped New York Yan- kees’ losing streak at three games, ket Washington Senators down with three hits and was the only member of the ‘Yanks to col- posing pitching. All this happen- ed in the first game of a double- header. During the sceond, which the New ‘Yorkers won, 6 to 4, Gomez took his shower, dressed jslowly and left the ball park. Immediately after the opening con- test, Lefty went to the club house where all was quiet. The crowd was stil! cheering his great pitch- ihg feat, littke knowing that their hero was deep in sorrow. Gomez’s father died during the winter of 1935, Detroit Tigers defeated Chicago White Sox, 11 to 7, with the help of three Chisox errors. Boston Red Sox barely missed shutting out Philadelphia Ath- Ietics. Final score was 6 to 1. Wilson twirled an eight-hit game for the million dollar team. The A’s blew up afield, committing four bad plays. Chicago Oubs had another full contest cut off their diminishing lead and are now only three games in front of the Giants, Brandt and Brown gave up 10 hits to the Bruins but they were| scattered. Meanwhile the Buecos pounded Larry French for 12 safe blows and a 4 to 2 victory. Young Melton turned in a five- hit affair for New York Giants against Boston Bees, as his team- mates got at Bush and Hutchin- son for 12 bingles, to almost blank the Pees, 4 to 1. Philadelphia Phillies swamped Brooklyn Dodgers, 11 to 1. Pas- seau limited the Brooklynites to seven hits. The Phils amassed 15 bingles in their overwhelming victory.
