Im, WofU nthu Kwrvc4 " ; c am. r AnDErSON- Gasual Slaughters ' ""By VIRGINIA HANSON Cy Rejected Manuscript ' The club orderly, passing through (from tho bar to the kitchen rooms, etopped when he saw ua. "There's some mail for you, Miss Cornkh. I was fixing to bring it around to the colonel's quarters as soon as I go off duty. But bIiicp you're here I'll get it for you." He vanished. "Would you like me to put the suitcase in your room?" the chap . lain asked while we waited. "Or perhaps you're not staying there?" "No. Just leave it here, thank you," I said evasively. "I'll speak to Mrs. Bridewell" f The orderly reappeared with the mail. I took it from him and mut tered something uncomplimentary as I saw there was nothing from Adam. "Not bad news, I trust?" the chaplain asked anxiously. "No, just not good. A rejected manuscript and a letter from the same people. They were in an un pleasant hurry about It, I " must say." He tut-tutted a couple of times while I thurst the letter, unread, into my purse. Then he came out with some bright remark about If at first you don't succeed, or words to that effect. The orderly, lingering, said: "Too bad about that, young lady," and added fervently, "I'm glad I don't sleep here!" "I understand the, jah, weapon was taken from the kitchens here?" the chaplain asked with what I could not help considering ghoul ish interest. "I guess It was. The cook said her best butcher knife was miss ing, and she hasn't got It back yet. She was pretty sore when she tried to cut the ham this morning" "Anyway, llm glad I wasn't around when that fellow come for the knife," the orderly dilated with grue some relish. I got one scare a cou ple of nights ago that will last me awhile. I was ready to go back to the barracks, and there wasn't a soul around. It was a week night, and I guess everybody was in bed for a change. I went back to the kitchen to change my white coat for my uniform blouse that I al ways leave hanging out there, and I came back through the dining room. The lights were on out here, see, and the dining room wasn't exactly dark, so I didn't turn on no lights. I was almost to the hall when I seen this sort of floating white figure by the buffet. Not that - it was acutally floating, or even moving when I first saw it. It was standing real still, like it hoped I wouldn't just notice it at all. Well. for two shakes I would have just cut and run. But I was right by the door, and I figured I could get out quick if I had to, so I reached over and turned on the light." -He paused, enjoying our atten tion and creating suspense. Then he chuckled a little and went on "Well, sir, it was Mrs. Tack the bride, you know. She had on a kind of white bathrobe, and she had a medicine bottle In one hand and a vinegar cruet in the other and she was pouring vinegar into the bottle. I reckon I thought she was daffy or something. I just stood there and stared until she gave a little laugh and asked me if I didn't know vinegar was good for a headache. Seemed she had one and was going to rub vinegar on her head. I told her it was a new one on me, but she Just smiled and said, 'Don't tell anyone 1 swip ed it. So I didn't But I guess she was just joking, don't yuo?" As both the orderly and the chap lain seemed disposed to linger and continue the subject, 1 took my overnight case and my rejected manuscript and went off down the hall to Felicia's room. But it did strike me as odd that Sandra would Jwve been filling her medicine bot tle in the dark. And there was! something else the orderly had said that rang the little bell in my mind. Something that for the moment eluded me. : To be continued Radio Programs KSI.M 1860 ftlloejrclci ' Monday .'. - f 0:00 Pwitor's CrII. 8:15 Popular Music.
