She looked around. "Oh, Shep,

"I'm going, too;" he .said.
"■ 0 eu'ly? The Derby won't be

He smiled, buf it war a forivd

Something In his manner caused
j her to look at him setir<.®ÜlfilÍy.
"What's up, Shep?" she asked. He

gave a qulek look at Shop's get-
up. Amid the tang of the stable,
the crunching of leather, the
neighing of horses, tmd the muffled
clump of hoofs from the training
truck beyond ihe barn, hi* im-
maculate figure was out of place.
"Shep." she said. "I never nuw
you so dressed up. What's hap-
pened to you?" she insisted. Gen-
erally. Shep went about in torn
sweater and uncreased breeches
and old riding boots.
"Well, er~-" he hesitated, then
the words came tumbling out.
while he looked her in the eye.
"I'm driving down with May Bel-

"The Bonnie Lad tried to claim

"Gosh. Sherry, I'll swear I
didn't know It!"
"Gosh is right. The woman has
everything. Shep; horses and
money and diamonds—everything
but youth. Now she's gone after
you because you're young and at-

-But you will, my dear! You
can't be lucky at poker always."
She was very close to him, and
she made her voice low and in-
timate. "She let you win, didn't
she, Shop? And it was her money
you wanted to lend me?"
A. browned hand shot skyward.
"I swear, Sherry—I won that
money from a bunch of men. Will
yott believe me?" His young face
Was exasperated, yet full of con-
cern. "Maybe it was foolish, when
Belter asked me to ride for her
this season—"
"And ottered you one of her im-
(Kjrted cars to drive to Churchill
Downs In?"
He nodded. "Then 1 went out
and got this fool outfit—"
"I understand." she repented,
less harshly. "You're my age,
Shep—pretty young. That's why
I hate to see you roped in. Like
me, you've lost the silver spoon,
and like me, you have had to shift
for yourself. You happen to know
horses—a lot better than you do
humans!"
Sherry moved away from him,
as if to end the conversation. "Just
forget what I've said." She waved
her hand to impatient. Ted, now
behind the wheel of the roadster.
"M.v crowd's ready, Shep. We
aren't swank, at all: the trailer
even needs a coat of paint, but
we're real racing folks. 'Bye,
Shep."
"Wait a minute!" he grabbed her
lutnd. "I. ten, I'm going to the

IB Sherry had had surplus ca-h,
she'd have taken a terry which
ships horse vans from Look Island
direct to New Jersey. But every
dollar in hvr bag was precious
so the.v drove to the nearest bridge,
rolled down its long incline into
Manhattan.
"We go to the Holland Tunnel,
Sam that takes us under the
Hudson river and into New Jer-
sey."
"Yes'm." Sam stopped the car
as a light turned red. "But we
pot to get across this here big
town first. Miss Sherry. Seems
like a powerful lot o' folks travelin'
today." he complained. "Got to
get this here baby colt sa.fc
through these here streets."
Sam obviously was worried.
Suddenly, fear gripped Sherry.
What if something should happen
to them? Suppose a careless
driver sldeswiped them, or a truck
bumped them? The least quick

or, worse, a broken leg—lied oe

In that moment a motorcycle
cop rode alongside—a young, Irish-
faced cap, red hair showing under
Ids cap. He stopped his macnlne,
spraddled It. Then glanced up,
casually. j i M
He raised his goggle*. Smiled.
And his Imnd went up to his cap
iu salute. "Any help, miss?" he
culled.
"Oh, yes!" She seemed to relax
with relief. Then she leaned for-
ward, a gorgeous smile crossing
her smooth features.
"You ready for us?"
"What—" he looked- keenly at
her, the smile leaving his lace,
His manner changed. "Ready for
what?" he asked.
"far UB— for Pepper Boy. You
see," the words ca.ne fast, "we're
on our way to Churchill Downs—
for the Kentucky Derby—I thought
the track telephoned—might have,
for a motorcycle escort through
trafile—the Holland Tunnel, you
know—"
Now he grinned, as he caught
on. "Nope! They didn't phone
for me, miss but, there! we've
got the light—Holland Tunnel?"
"Yes—yes!" Sherry said breath-
lessly.
"Follow me—I'll give you a
break!" • • •
TIF snapped the goggles down
1 over his eyes, touched a lever
and his motorcycle burst into full-
tliroated roar. He settled back in
the seat culled to Sam, "Follow
me!" and with a gesture ahead
led them down Fifty-seventh
Street, his siren shrieking.
The escort ended at the tunnel's
approach. The cop dropped back
alongside as the truck halted for
another light. He spraddled hi*
Wheel again, pushed up his gog-
gles Grinned.
"All right?"
"Swell! Thanks to you!"
"What's the name of
horse?"
"Pepper Boy, from the Lone
Tree Stable."
"Lone Tree Stable—Pepper Boy
—say! I'm going to lay u coupla
bucks on his nose for luck. He
bettor win."
"He'll win—with half a chance."
The light turned from red to
green. The cop let go her hand,
Krinned broadly as he waved her
on, calling:
"Good luck—Pepper Boy!"
The car iu\jl trailer carrying
Pepper Boy te Chin-chill Downs
swept into the Holland Tunnel-
New Jersey ahead—Kentucky far,
far ahead.

ttn Kridiiy night the party made
a trip to Tuxeo a Small "own es-
pecially noted for the handmade
silver articles Its natives make.
A point of Interest here was the
Hotel de Iti Borda, a flue moun-
tain resort built on a peak out-
side ihe city of Taxco, where the
party spent the night.
Because they did not wish to
depart from their old and settled
ways and disliked anything mod-
ern. the townspeople would not
allow the hotel to lie constructed
wllliln the city, (HKlam said.
Among the sites that the tour-
ists enjoyed seel UK nt Taxco were
an old cathedral, beautiful with
oriiinte hand earrings and paint-
ings und resplendent iu gold leaf,
whom JcwmIVj and lupesirlés and
other article^ are made by Hand.
Oilllam remarked that he was
¡inpre .-ed by the desire of the
people to stick to their old w->ys,
cot curing to desert their primi-
tive hiding tal and UKrlculiural
methods for new modern ways.
Throughout the region from the
border to the capital plowing was
done by osen (¡illiuni saw only
one irai'tor on this trip and that
' ii a large farm near tile bor-
der.
On Saturday the party return-
ed to Mexico t'lty, had lunch at
Old lleldelbei'K and left for lite
United States that ev ^ng.
Gilliam also observed how much
Catholic church life perthented
Hip life of the people. In one city
