Sugar
useful in diet
; Famous food scientist
recommends tt
There are several plain facts
that people who are dieting for
weight control should remember.
No one under 25 years old
should be at all under weight.
Extreme dieting is dangerous
to health and may result in per
manent injury to the delicate
tissues and organs of the body.
Sugar, in dessert, is a useful part
of the meal.
Eminent authorities emphasize
the dangers of fasting and they
should be borne in mind by every
person who wishes to remain
healthy. One of America's lead
ing food biologists advocates des
serts containing sugar. "1 he value
of the sweet," he says, "in addition
to giving energy is in furnishing a
fecfing of satiation that helps re
licvean empty, unsatisfied feeling."
Starving is dangerous, and each
person should cat nrgulafly a va
riety of healthful foods, especially
cereals, fresh and canned fruits
and vegetables sweetened to bring
out the delicious flavors. Cereals,
fruits and vegetables are whole
some and delicious. The bett
cooks are generous with sugar.

was fully equipped.
While the origin of the fire was
not determined. Myrtle Creek peo
ple believe that it was started by
the firebug who caused some
heavy losses a few months ago.
The presence of a firebug win

Central hotel, two residences,
a barn, and several other buildings
were burned in a series of fires
that not only caused heavy losses,
but ulso endangered the entire
town. In each case the time was

was learned that would aid in lo

The schoolhou.se fire has also

THIS HAS HAPPENED
The body of "Handsome Harry"
Borden, promoter and ladies' man,
murdered between half-past one
and four o'clock Saturday after
noon. Is found beneath the closed
airshaft window of his private of-j
fice Monday by his secretary, Ruth '
Lester. j
Detective McMann discovers
that at least five people had oppor-i
tunity, access to weapon and pos-
sible motive for the murder. These j
are Mrs. Elizabeth Rorden, es-!
tranged wife of the victim; Ruth!

her desk; Denny Smith, office
boy; Jack Hay ward, Insurance
broker with offices directly across
the airshaft, and Rita Dubois, a
dancer.
Because of Borden's attempted
familiarity with Ruth on Saturday.
Hayward had threatened to kill
the promoter. Although the air
shaft window Is closed, the bloody
footprints of a pigeon Inside and
outside the window indicate It was
open until after Borden's death. t
Benny Smith, who has not
ported for work. Is sent for, as are
Minnie Cassidy and Letty Miller,
scrubwomen for tho seventh floor.
Bill Cowan strengthens suspicion
against Hayward by telling of
telephone call to Hayward's offices
Saturday at 2:10, when he was
pHigeed in on a busy wire and
heard Borden's voice raised in niv
ger, presumably against Hayward.
Ruth Lester tells McMunn about
Cleo Gllman, recently discarded
mistress of Borden. She Is sought
by police. Rita Dubois arrives, ad
mits to .McMann she had planned
to go away for the week-end with
Borden, but when he fulled to
meet her at the station she had
telephoned him, found his .Hue
busy at 2:10, then got him, and
was requested to come to his of
fice.
She says he was not there, his
door locked. Ruth tells McMann of
Borden's having given the dancer
the torn half of a yellow-backed
bill but Borden's half of the bill is
missing from his body, as well ns
$500 in smaller bills. About to
question Rita about the bill, Mc
Mann receives a telephone mes
sage that. Rita's night club, The
Golden Slipper, has been robbed.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTKR XXIV
"Hello, captain! McMann speak
ing," the detective in charge of the
Investigation into the murder of
Henry P. Borden greeted his su
perior on the oilier end of the
wire. "Tho Golden Slipper's safe
has been cracked, eh? . . . Lose
much? . . . Hinm! Guess I know
what graft to get into when I re
tire from this game! . . . What's
that? A $500 bill, eh? . . . When
did she get. It changed?" and Mc
Mann raised his brows and smiled
his sinister, crooked smile at Rlla
Dubois, who was leaning toward
him, her lovely face white and
drawn with suspense.
"Listen, captain. Is the club's
manager there now? ... All right,
ask him if he remembers whether
the bill had been torn half In two
and pasted and pinned together."
The words were uttered with
slow, dreadful significance, th de
tective's eyes never leaving Rita s
stricken face. The answer, when it
came, brought a grunt of satisfac
tion from the detective, who quick
ly concluded the conversation.
"Weil. Rita?" McMann grinned.'
as he hung up the receiver. Sud-:
denly he leaned forward and ad-1
dressed the pitiably frightened
dancer, his pencil tapping staccalo
periods to his brief sentences: "No
use wasting time! Saturday morn
ing Borden gave you half of a $Ti0:
bill. He kept the other hr.lf. He had i
bargained to give it to you when:
you had kpt your promise to go'
to Winter Haven with him.
"In addition to the torn half of
a $r.io bill, Borden had more than
$fiu In smaller bills to pay for the
weekend Jaunt. No money was,

fire had progressed so tur by the
time it was discovered that it was
impossible to save any cf the books
or personal effects of the pupils

Will Use Churches
A n emergency meet ing of t he
school board was held yesterday
and arrangements were made to re
open school a week from today In
the Baptist and Presbyteitan
churches The pupils will have an
opportunity to secure new books
and materials during the interven
ing period.
While the loss of the building
and equipment greatly handicaps
the students, the board expects to
carry on the work in the most ef
ficent manner possible under the
conditions. The old building hous
ed both the high school and the
grades.
Due to the fact that the gutted
walls of the razed building were
considered daiurerous, they were
blown down with dynamite today
to prevent Injury to persons in
specting the ruins.

"Dead or alive or both?" Mc
Mann pounced.
Rita's voice was the monotone
of a woman who is restraining
hysterics. "Alive. I didn't kill him.
if that is what you mean. He was
alive and well when I left, nfter
having been with him only about
10 minutes."
"Thank God!" Ruth cried. In a
vote shaking with laughter and
tears. "At half-past two, when
Rita left Mr. Borden alive, alive!
Jack and I were in the lobby of
the Princess Theater, Mr. Mc
Mann!" "And the curtain did not rise
until 2:45," McMann reminded her,
but almost absent-mindedly. "Of
course someone may remember
seeing you and Hayward there nt
half-past two. Did you ask the box
office man when tho matinee was
to start?"
"No, of course not," Ruth admit
ted reluctantly. "There was a sign
in the lobby giving curtain time,
so wo just walked about for 10
minutes, as Jack told you."
"I remember," McMann granted,
that twisted smile on his Hps
again. "But Rita has the floor now.
Welt Rita, how did you get in Sat
urday afternoon at about 17 min
utes after two? Did you use the
key Burden had given you?"
Ruth gasped her surprise, and
the dancer, apparently, was' no
less startled. "I I didn't have n
key," she retorted defiantly, her
agitated bands instinctively grip
ping her handbag.
"Oh, yes, you did!" McMann
laugtied harshly, as he rose, strode
to the girl, and forced the expens
ive alligator bag out of her desper
ately clinging hands.
Ruthlessly, without apology, he
dumped its contents upon the
desk top, until a key clattered up
on the polished surface. "And here
it Is! You amateurs ure always so
sloppy," he reproved the dancer
jocularly. "An old hand at the
game would have remembered to
throw this tiling away."
"How did you know I had a key
to Harry's office?" Rita demanded.
"Because of a little memo that
Borden jotted down on th envelope
that held his railroad tickets," Mc
Mann eilllchtened her. " 'Get key
from Rita.' Now, Rita, why didn't
Borden jotted down on the envelope
was alive when you entered these
offices Saturday afternoon?"
Ruth saw only too clearly the
drift of McMann's questions. He
undoubtedly believed that the pro
moter was dead when Rita arrived,
that he had been shot immediate
ly after his telephone conversa
tion with her. In which he had
told her to come to the office, that
she hail arrived, knocked, received
no answer, entered with the key

her would-be lover dead, and had,

If only Rlla had not. had a key,
could not have entered unless Bor
den had been alive to admit her,
then Jack Hayward would auto
matically have been eliminated as
a suspect. But Rita was answer
ing, and Ruth forced herself to
listen.
"He forgot to ask me for the
key, I suppose." Rlla retorted de
fiantly. "Anyway, he made a date
to meet me at the station for the
Tr.'.Vl, the next train for Winter
Haven. He wouldn't have needed
the key before then anyway, since
ie told me he was going to stay in
his office all afternoon.

of course, but before he opened the,
door he asked who it was and.
when I shouted Rita,' he let me:

And then?" McMann grinned ;
skeptically, as Rita paused. "What
explanation did he give you for
missing the train?"
Rita hesitated, flushed, then
seemed to choose her words care
fully. "He didn't give any explana
tion just apologized, and prom-;
Ised to make it up to me. He he
seemed to be lu a hurry to get me (
out of the office, as If he were ex

was afraid she'd come while I was I
there. Harry and Cleo had been
friends for about a year before I j
met him. He had told me about
her, said he was through with ;
her"
"Did he mention Miss Gllman 1
Saturday afternoon?" McMann in-1
terrupted.
"No, he didn't mention anyone's
name, except Jake Bailey, who
was always hanging around, like a1
bodyguard or something. I joking-1
ly asked him if Jake was going to
Winter Haven with us. and he said
no, that Jake had left Friday night
for a week-end visit with his peo
ple somewhere upstate he didn't
say just where," Rita answered, i
still In that careful, hesitating
manner which wns branding her as
a liar in McMann's eyes, as Ruth
could clearly see.
Her fear was confirmed when !
McMann asked, smiling twistedly: j
"You're sure he told you that Sat-!

Rita replied stubbornly.
"Borden was In a hurry to get

Why didn't he wait until you were

give It to you Saturday morning,
remember!"
An ugly splotch of red suddenly
glowed on the slim throat of the
dancer. "I asked him for It. I waa
pretty sore because he'd missed
tho train, and he wanted to make
up with me, so ho gave me the
other half of the hill. I told him I
might miss the 5:32 If ho didn't
so he gave It to me."
McMann chuckled. "Just like
that, eh?" You make an awfully!
poor liar, Rita. . , . Here! Keep
your shirt on!" he commanded, as
the dancer sprang toward him, her
teeth bared, her slim, long fingers
curved Into talons. "So you went
tn the station to make the 5:32,
did you, and he stood you up
again?"
Rita hesltnted again, then an
swered, desperately, angrily, "Yes,
I did!"
McMann leaned hack in his
chair, grinning and nodding with

ish satisfaction. "What do you
