VULTURINE PACE
IITH an odd alertness Grahame arose from
tne ueepiy cushioned chair. Some jungle'
orca instinct stirred within him. His un
ease. was curiously at variance with the
' formal, surroundings of this studio' ante-
i room;-.
The ornamental stenosrranher-secre'
tary paused with her typing and iooked up
with polite inquiry,
"I am sure Mr. Myberg will see you in
; just a few minutes,-. Mr, Grahame". she
murmured as if n seating- his imnatiencn.
Grahame 'Shook nig' head slightly , and looked; slowly
about the huge low-ceilinged room. It was paneled at both
ends tin silvered ebony. The sides were solid with French
windows done In frosted, angular, leaded glass. Shadows of
palm fronds from the adjoining patio-made queer modern
patterns upon tui glass. Jills gaze
enmlned each object within the
roam with a studied care. Tliere
ware but Hires other chairs like tbe
One In which be bad been seated.
- Except for tho girl at the desk, be
was alone..;
ills genre of unease persisted but
not so strongly now,. Tbe typist's In
quiring gaze still bold bis own. He
'smiled slightly at bis thought thai
ft was. like Myberg, Hollywood's
greatest executive, to have tbls
platinum blond -seated- behind an
ebony, desk In Ills celourutod ebony
nd silver offices. Ho wondered If
she wero as efficient as she was un
doubtedly decorative, and cooclud
ed'that she was. He recalled some
thing of Mybcrg's requirements.
. Tbe door to tbe Inner offices
swung open.. A naze of tobacco
smpke eddied outward. Voices
Monflflfl in a mild, coufuolun of
sounUt then one Voice predomi
nated. " no bettor man for ihe Jungle.
He's outside now. Shall we liave
blm Inr , Our picture "
Another vol;o rumbled an Inter
ruption; whereupon a third voice
said, "But Ortega, you can't do
everything, v'understand." Tbe rum
bling volco made some reply.
Whereupon, as clear and deeply
rich as a 'cello, a feminine voice
aid: .
' "Goodness, but It's getting dark.
1 must be iiolng. Oontleman, can't
we discuss tbls tomorrow? .
Thank you, Mr. Ortega. I'm so. awk
ward . , , forever losing gloves-r "
The door swung slowly ibjt,.cut-
ting on the sounds of .the breaking.
up of tbe meeting, . Orabame. picked
up hu light camel's balr coat and
put it ovei his arm. He took, up his
bat-and stood with a slight uncer
tainty. The door to Mybergs office
clicked. Abruptly tbat former-sense
of disquiet took' hold of him. Ho
faced tho glassed; aide-wall" The
shadows palms lay against the
treated surfaces xi it they had been
stained In tbe glass. Whereupon his
giance focused, unon. the. one in
congruous shadow, . is', i
Ho felt B faint tingling at the base
or nis scalp.:- There was a shadow
or a face between the leaves, , It
was an odd face a vulturlne out
line, with, a predatory nose tbat
seemea Dut a prolongation of an
excessively, slanting forehead. It
was as if a man stood behind a palm

are leaving."
Half turning, Grahame replied,
Tomorrow, it's late now." The
closing door blanketed the 'girl's
confused protest
Outside the Lulldlng be strode
along the cement walk toward tbe
palms which threw shadowy pat
terns about his feet. Beams from
street lamps sprouted. A thin, dia
phanous drizzle began to fall and
glisten upon tbe surrounding shrub
bery.
,One swift glance assured blm that
there was no buman figure among
the palms. He stepped upon the
lawn, and moved toward a central
tree thai rhlghF have 'betrayed 'the'
shadowed face he'd seen from with
in the office. He glanced it the grass
at his feet, behind tbe smooth
trunk It seemed compressed as It a
man had recently been standing
upon It.
Grahame paused, frowning. The
fact that someone had stood in this
place was not especially significant;
It was Important, however, that hi
had experienced that sense of . un
ease wltbln the office and bad local
ized It as a strange shadow upon a
frosted window: .
' His year's In remote places had
taught blm not to disregard his faint

SHEEP AND WOOL
00TLO0K BRIGHT
SECRETARY SAYS
' SALT LAKE CITY W) Favorable
prospects fo? the sheep' and wool In
dustry during the coming season were
outlined by P. R. Marshall of Salt
Lake City',' secretary of the National
Wool ' 'Growers' association, at the
opehirig session' of its 69th annual
convention here.
, , While' grazing fees for next season,
under, the' present . arrangement' with
tho department of agriculture, will
reflect the increase in lamb prices
made lost year, they will still be only
about half the old scale, Mr. Mar
shall said. Last year's savings from.
dedreased lees amounted toj more
than 2 cents per head per month for
the six and a half million sheep
raised In tho national forests. , he as
serted. -
"In freight rates oh livestock, we
have a little more than held our
owii," the secretary said, explaining
that some coses affecting sale in
transit privileges are still pending.
Ho reported that commission fees
have been reduced at Denver, Ogdch
and Salt Lake stockyards, but reduc
tions ordered at other markets have
been taken into court and have not
yet been decided upon.
While shoepmen are still unsuccess
ful In their demands for a more lib
eral attitude on loans by federal land
banks, the regional agricultural cred
it corporations In the last year "have
rendered n notable service." he said.
The wool marketing plan of the
federal , farm credit administration.
which has been approved for another
year, "can properly be credited with
a large; part of the advance which
took place in the wool market in
the spring and summer of last year,"
Mr. Marshall stated.
Uncertainty as to the Inclusion of
the .lanib and wool Industry In the
agricultural adjustment act and as
to changes in tho tariff was reported
by tho secretary, who saw as en
couraging the delay in extending the
processing tax to products of the
Industry. . , .
Reports from Clear Lake, Cal.. say
thousands of fish . ore dying from
suffocation caused by gases escap
ing from the bottom of the lake.
