Saturday, January 21, 1939 The Capital Journal, Salem, Oregon Seven Henry . "6 -y CHACE The Ctiaraet.nl Peter Mallone. ft trntlal newspaperman. Petronetla, his rounr alster and atauneh supporter. Ye' terdaT: Prter'a chance cornea, Kith an outbreak of rioting In Ranaooo. While he covere the story. Petrel runs ft canteen Then handsome Tort Lance appears ftgaio. Chapter Eight rttrel's Fate "I'm only passing through Ran goon, on my way to China," he told her. "I thought I'd see If I could be any use here. But. so far. I've done nothing to deserve extra nourishment. "I suppose you would like to get me some milk? I've run out! He smiled. "II the sergeant has no other Job for me, I ii try. It would be much easier to arrest rioters, but I'll do my best." He turned ttway. Leaving her. with a nod, he crossed leisurely towards the door, leading to the Inner office. He was a Journalist first, real lzed Petronella. A young, gauche girl, surrounded by too many young men, was of no Interest to him He wanted to get Into the thick of trouble. He was lite Peter. He was In search of news. She must rot trouble him with anything so trivial as milk. Watching, she saw him speak ta the police sergeant, at the desk. The sergeant stood. Instantly. It was the first time he had done that tonight, realized Petronella. And many men had reported for duty He was a dark-skinned Anglo- Indian, business-like and Inclined to Bell-Importance. Was it any thing Tony had said to him, that had had such effect? Or did men always stand up to speak to Tony Lance? Apparently the men munching sandwiches, and drinking round her. also felt the Interest of Tony's personality. They Interrupted her observance of him to Inquire: "Who is that tall fellow, Miss Mallone?" "He's Tony Lance. well-known Journalist. He's on the staff of the Daily News." They turned to stare at Tony's back and half-averted lace. One confirmed her description "Of course! I've heard of him!" The telephone bell was ringing In the inner office. The sergeant sat down again and answered It. Looking up. he spoke to Tony, who nodded, and turning, came to tne doorway. He beckoned for her. "That call Is for you." She went hurriedly to him. "Not mv brother? He Isn't hurt?" Tony Lance shook his head. His eyes were amused. "No your father. Colonel Mai lone! Rather angry from the sound of it." Petronella's glance told him eloquently, that she had been ex pecting this. At the desk, she took the receiver, but stood nesitauns She was tutoring herself to try to keep her temper. She must not ans wer hysterically. It would be easy to lose her sell-control. She was suddenly aware of the fearful weari ness of her body. Tne strain an1 excitement of the evening had not slackened, since Peter heard Wiosc hots, outside the Pwe tent. That was hours ago. It must be after four o'clock now. It would soon be light. The canteen had on more milk, and father wa going to send her home In disgrace. As if she were a disobedient scnocicirl. "Hello father." He sounded an tTter than even she had Imagined possible. He was nearly Incoherent with rage. She could imagine ni choking neck, and the tight, angry kin of his forehead. "Petronella II I've. Just heard of your outrageous foolishness!" His words became a stutter, like wireless atmospherics. His voice emerged again. "You're to stop this escapade at once, do you understand? The sergeant must be put to the trouble of giving you an escort. Let me speak to him! Now dont argue! Oet off the line, get off the line I" Tony Lance was standing beside her. Petronella felt that she had his symphony. He took the telephone from bet. By ELUOTT TAYLOR ' "Miss Mallone has finished a splendid Job here, sir, and Is going home Immediately. I will see that she arrives back safely. Ooodby," he said. "And who the devil are you" Pe tronella heard her father shout, fur iously. Smiling, Tony Lance hung up on him. He took her by the arm. "He'll think differently about It tomorrow. But 1 feel he Is right. It is time to get some rest Don't you agree?" he asked the men, who, re alizing the trouble, had crowded to the doorway. They assented. But petronella was angry. She felt disappointed and frustrated What right had father to order her home like that? Or Tony Lance to take her? She stiffened. "I'm staying." But his hand was firm on her arm. He smiled, and it was as If he had paid her a compli ment. "No, you're coming home. Pet rel." He gave her the reason in his persuasive deep voice. "It is half-past four. They can carry on here perfectly easily with out you. There are enough sand wiches to feed the whole force, and plenty of cold drinks. If you get knocked out, you put your irate par ent In the right. Whereas, when he hears the other side of this busi ness, and sees the headline I'm go ing to get for you In the Rangoon News, I think he'll change his mind. and nearly burst with pride. Tomor row, youll be running a really well organized show, with other women, and servants, to help you. Are you ready?" "Yes." gulped Petrel. "Good night. everybody!" They were lent police car.

Tony looked down at her face close to his shoulder. "How old are you?" "Seventeen." "What made you do that?" She described the scene at the Pwe. "Peter went back." she finished. "You ran a canteen so that he should have a cup of coffee I It's a wonderful thing, family affection!" She laughed with him. But she explained. "A girl feels she has a great many brothers in Rangoon." He looked at her, curiously. "That's your version of the rela tionship." "No. they really are friends. You don't fall in love round every cor ner, as the older people here seem to think, when they pair us off.' "Some of them must at least Imagine themselves to love with you." "Any girl gets spoilt In Rangoon. Ahead of them a volley of firing made her Jump and cling Instinc tively to his arm. He leaned for ward. "Turn right, .driver! We must avoid the fireworks," he Joked. But Petronella was shuddering. How ever hard she tried to prevent it. her teeth chattered together. He heard them. "I can't s-stop them," she apolo gized, ashamed. He was so casual. There was no danger. It was terri ble to be so uncontrolled. If she were really to let go. she would cast her head forward, and sob and sob. 8he could Just manage to spare him that. But she kept thinking of those horrible dahs. stained with blood, lying on the floor of the police sta tion, of the Incidents the patrols had described to one another, when thev forgot her, or thought she was not listening, of the terrified women. and little brown children, who were even at this moment dying of gash wounds, or cowering, waiting for death. In their frailly shuttered houses. (Continued Monday) 11:00 Harl Carroll Orch.. NBO. 11:30 Ray Harrlnaton'a Music NBO. KflW-4f Kilocycle Iifidw A.
