COr.lMENCEr'EHT Bishop Holt Urges Increased Fellowship Among Men COLUMBIA, June 6 (UP) Bishop Ivan Lee' Holt of St.

Louis denounced "individualism" as the mental state in urging "greater collective fellowship among in his sermon yesterday at baccalaureate services for 1938 graduates of the University of Missouri. Branding individualists as "pythons," Bishop Holt said, "The python strikes in our modern world. In fact, a man of might can persuade himself that he does God's will when he crushes weaker men. In the world of business, in international politics and even in orgainzed religion, one can find jungle minds. "The mind of Christ belongs to the mind of cooperative fellowship," he said.

Cooperative fellowship, helping one's neighbor with no thought of personal ambition, will "come to mankind as a change of intellectual climate to make it impossible for cruelty and injustice and hatred to live in the world of tomorrow." he said. i i Three Months until Jt Joined the main Six Months J.1 Public highway, and she met no other owe One Year until sne Sot on tne aer- Traf- Representative Otha D. Wearln administration leaders sought to strengthen th New Deal faction in the senate by defeating Sens tor Guy M. Gillette, left, and indorsed Rc-prcwn: tive Otha D. Wearin, right.

Senator Guy M. Gillette Th. most heated Democratic senatorial battle in the history of traditionally Republican Iowa comes to a climax with the primary election. The campaign became an issue of national importance when WORD PUZZLE i thought it must have sounded silly. But the urge to confide heart secrets in someone often is powerful, and as yet Ellen had made no intimate friends in Arizona.

"Did, heh? I'll have to study on it." Ellen brought the Riveras, bade them tend Buckshot Brown while she went for help. Bill had taken the truck. In spite of Buckshot's orders, she went for a doctor. The road to her ranch was about fic was never heavy there, but a few motorists whizzed by. One of them knew Ellen, indeed was cong out to see her, but did not recognize her as they passed on the road.

He was Felix Montoya. Felix was definitely in love with Ellen Dale, or thought he was. She had impressed him greatly down in Sonora. It delighted him to know she did not go back to Hollywood. Following now the instructions he had obtained in Nogales, he made the cor rect turn and ended up eventually at her ranch site.

"She ain't here," Buckshot Brown explained. "She's went for a doc, dadgummit! Ain't you a Mexican, young eller?" Old Buckshot glared at Felix, who bowed an affirmative. "Be danged! Didn't understand thet. Waal, ef you're th' one, you're th' one. Whar you frum?" "I live in Sonora.

Miss Dale, she was guest at my father's ranch. She gave the life of my seester, when the Yaquis capture her. She is grand! Miss Dale, I refer to. She "That a fack? She saved my life, too. Who'd you say you was? Ain't you a count, or a baron, or something like that?" "Montoya, scnor, is the name.

Co- lear Montenegro Felix de Capablan-ca Montoya." "Gosh amighty, son! Enough name for a family of kids, by dads! What do you do?" Old Buckshot was considerably stronger now. He was able to eye Felix closely, studying him. He plied Felix with many questions, mostly quite personal. Felix didn't like it. After a bit he became rather short with his answers, impatient of an old man's in- quisitiveness.

"Miss Dale, she is not returning soon? I am much anxious to see her?" he demanded of Buckshot, finally. "Sorry to say she ain't, son. She swore I had to have help. I'm disappointed in her judgment. More ways 'n one, by- dads.

I'll have to study on it." "I beg pardon, senor?" "I says she has went to town, and won't be back till tomorrer or so." That didn't please Felix, but he believed it. He had no way knowing that Buckshot Brown had prevaricated, was in fact a conscious-less old liar whenever lying suited what Buckshot conceived to be a worthy purpose. Suddenly, Felix got in his car and headed on back toward Nogales. (To Be Continued) RERSNALS Mrs. Augusta Butler left today for a visit in Moberly with her daughter, Mrs.

It was obvious that the fellow could not talk. His face seemed flushed, feverish. But she could not escape his penetrating eyes. She did a foolish thing. She did npt drop her reins in dismounting, and Pintado calmly wandered on.

"Are you injured? What is it?" 'She knelt beside the old man. Inspecting him as best she could, she 'saw he must be suffering. Then she learned that he could whisper. "I fell," he managed. "Water!" She had no water.

She hadn't yet learned the westerner's dependence on a canteen. But she knew they weren't far from her stream. "I have none. I'll get help can you can we get you on my horse? Are you in pain?" She looked then for Pintado, and had the devil's own time catching him. The frisky animal wanted to play.

He dodged" artfully, even in that narrow canypn. With more nerve and determination than she imagined she had, Ellen eventually caught his reins and thereby learned a first lesson in horsemanship I which she never forgot. The old man was heavy, but was able to help himself a little. With great straining, Ellen got him across saddle, not astride but dangling across. She tied his body there with the rawhide saddle strings, at the old man's whispered isntruc-tions.

"I'm Brown, Buckshot Brown," lie rasped then. "I ain't nigh daid yit!" "I'm sure you're not, Mr. Brown! We'll get help at once." She started down the canyon, leading Pintado. Their trek was a tedious one. She had come farther than she realized.

But she was able to cut over a hill and come to her mountain stream, ihere to give the old man a 'much needed drink. He could still talk only in a broken whisper. "I ain't daid yit, they cain't kill me," he insisted. When she reached her camp with him, the place was deserted. This disappointed her immensely.

Unconsciously she had been wanting to shift the burden of responsibility for her injured man. But Bill had set up her tent, and she got the old man in and placed comfortably on her camp bed. She learned then that his ankle was broken, or badly sprained, enough at any rate to make him almost helpless in the hills alone. He had lain there for four days, he said, subsiding on the raw meat of a rocJi squirrel he had chanced to shoot He was a prospector. He had mining claims in the hills.

The heel had come off his shoe, tripping and injuring him as he climbed down a rocky cliff. He had crawled more than half a mile, he guessed, seeking lwlp'. Ellen got his story by degrees while tending him, giving him what first aid she could. A note from Bill said he had gone to "see about purchasing some more stock and hiring some men. The-Mexican family was nowhere in sight, either.

"Are you feeling any stronger, Mr. Brown?" Ellen asked. "Strong's a b'ar," he lied gamely. "And th' name's Buckshot, ma'am. Buckshot Brown.

Don't cotton to no handle." He. could speak more distinctly how. She brought him some food and he thanked her. Slowly his strength was returning. "If you feel that I can leave you safely, I'll go for a doctor now?" "Hanh! No'm, I don't need none.

I'm all right. Four, five days of grub and water. I'll be up and travelin'. This ankle ain't broke. After a bit I'll trouble you for some hot water and a pan, and do my own doctorin'.

What in tarnation are you doin out here in these hills? With this here camp? You, a purty He was at a loss for words, in his curiosity. Ellen explained how she came to be there. "I have a Mexican family here somewhere, probably back in the little canyon a few blocks a half mile or so yonder, Mr. Brown. I'l go" "Buckshot Brown." yes, Buckshot.

But you are older than I am!" She smiled kindly at him. "You're a strange man!" "A damned old fool, you mean. I don't cotton to handles, anyhow.
