And, after all, Miss Olive was still missing. "If that goat was a red her rin'," Ascy murmured to him self, 'I'm goin' to look one plumb dumb fool!" He strode over toward the kitchen ell. The lights went out before he got there, and as he peered around the corner, Washy, in a belled mackinaw and with his little blue knitted pap on his head, sidled out the kitchen floor and started down the path. He didn't exactly run, but he walked so rapidly on tiptoe that the effect was the same, and he held his head down and his shoulders crouched a little, as if he were trying to make himself small. With a puzzled look on his face, Asey watched for a mo ment, and then quietly set off down the path after him. He heard a crackling sound as Washy left the path and skirted the brush pile, and then the soft crunching of his sneak ers as he hurried along down another gravel path. Keeping well behind him, Ascy followed him around a Finall pond, through a pine woods, and down a little slop ' lug hill to (lie bay shore. Washy paused for a moment at the edge of the beach grass and then continued more slow ly toward the gaunt outlines of a bathhouse that loomed out of the fog. Waves lapped on the shore beyond, and a bell buoy rang hollowly from Quissct Harbor, and then Asey heard the rat tle of keys and the click of a padlock. Washy swung open the bath house door, emerged a moment later with a shovel, and then began to dig industriously in the sand. . After a few moments he stop ped, jabbed his shovel upright : Into the snncl, nnd took some thing from the pocket of his mackinaw.'

His hands were in the pock els of his coat and he almost sauntered up to Washy, but he was ready to meet anything from a frontal atlack with the shovel to what used to be Washy's piece de resistance, a a sort of elementary flying tackle. "By gorry, it's you, Asey!" Washy said in a voice of pleased relief. "I must say I'm glad! I been tryin' to got hold of you all cvenin' long to see what you thought was best for me to do about these cussed things. Here. You take 'em." He held out a flat fifty cigar ette tin. Asey look it with caution. Washy was also a past master of the extended hand and the hearty grip. And when you came to and picked yourself up, you found your arm was broken. , "What's this, Washy?" "It's them cussed papers. Honest, Asey, I been like to go crazy, with them cussed cops stickin their cussed noses into everything, for fear they'd find 'em an' start askin' my wife say, you met my wife now, ain't you?" "Uh-huh." "Then you kliow, if they find these papers an' ask her about 'em, I'm a goner! 1 kept thlnkin' I'd be all right as soon as Miss Olive come back. But with her away, no one wouldn't ever be lieve me. Anyhow, now you gol 'em," he hooked his arm chummily in Asyc's, "an1 every thing's okay. My, my, it's good to get them cussed things off my mind, I can tell you. Come on back up to the house, Asey, an' let's us talk about the ole days" 'Wait up," Asey disengaged himself warily. He still didn't trust Washy even in this nmod of benign good humor. "What's all I his aboul papers?" "Oh, they're In the box. Come on out of this damp an' fog an'" "Hold on, Washy! Come back here! What are these papers, an' what's the idea of buryin' 'cm?" 'I lold you!" Washy said im patiently. "1 don't want them By Gene fisher Aw, I'M SORRV.1 K " UTHime Aitrr hoom J v0f1 "" MY WORD !

So 1 thought I'd just bury 'em out of the way till Miss Olive come back, because then people'd believe me say, Asey, you don't think nolhin' happened to her, do you?" "I hope not. Washy, slop dancin' around, an' tell me what these papers are!" "They're -just the notes." Washy took Ascy's arm again. "She wouldn't never take 'em, you see. She said she trusted me. But I said, 'Miss Olive, with a sum of money like that, you got to have a note.' I told her that ten years ago. So I makes out a note. N'en as I paid her back, I made out other notes. She gives me a receipt every lime I pay her back. The receipts is in that box, too." "Do I understand," Asey was honestly bewildered, "that you owe her money?" "Only two thousand now," Washy said with pride. "I paid back the other five." "Washy," Ascy said, "come over here an' sit down on these bathhouse steps an' let me get this straightened out. Miss Ol ive once lent you seven thou sand dollars? What for?" Asey asked. Washy understood his ques tion. "You see, ten years ago the bank foreclosed. Kind of hard, times was then. An' the cussedest part was, Asey, I had the money to pay 'em with, on ly it was all tied up in this schooner. Ever know Sim Smith?" At Six Ter Cent "I was partners with S i m Smith in this schooner," Washy said. "Thai's where my money was tied up. I knew I'd get the money back all right, some day, but the bank, it had to get paid cash money then, see?" Asey nodded, "Well," Washy continued, "I was feelin' pretty blue about it all when Miss Olive came to me Rationing Dates Point Rationing Red Stamps (Rationing of meats and meat products, canned fish and canned shellfish, most edible oils and most cheeses).

Only she didn't want Mrs. Doane to know. So " "Why not?" "Miss Olive said Mrs. Doane'd make a lot of fuss over her, an' things wouldn't be the same, an' nolhin' but hard feelin's ever come when one woman lent an other woman money I think she. was right, don't you, Asey? An' when them cussed cops started pokin' around tonight, I thought to myself, I wasn't goin' to have this spoiled now if I could help it. It'd look awful funny if they asked my wife to explain about the notes an' she didn't know, see, an' nobody'd believe me if Miss Olive wasn't there." "Washy, where in time'd Miss Olive get this cash money to pay you with? They told me she was a schoolteacher." "Oh, she's one of them care ful ones, I guess," Washy said. "Think of it, my wife not know in' about this! When I get the last cent paid up, I'm goin' to tell her an' show her the notes, an' that's goin' lo be a great day, i Asey, I can tell you! Asey, you don't think anything's happened to Miss Olive tonight, do you?" "I don't know. Asey opened the tin box, struck a match, and held up one of the papers. It was a note, all right. Washy was apparently telling the truth. "I hope you noticed," Washy said proudly, "that I pay her six percent interest, too. I pay that regular, out of my own pay, an' what I pick up shootin' crap with fellers like Rankin around the Inn." "Where's that gun of yours?" Asey asked. "Got it in your pocket now?" "Oh, I give that to one of them cops," Wastly said. "I told him I had a gun, an' a license, an' give 'em to him, right away. But you know what I was think in' tonight?" "What?" "I was t. 'nkin' if anyone's harmed Miss Olive, I don't know but what I might cut loose en ough to make up for all them quiet years. I'd like to locate her, Asey, an' be sure she was all right. Can't you figger out some way we can find her?" "I done my best," Asey as sured him. "Tell me one more thing, Washy. This feller Alf red, Lady Boop's chauffeur. You see him go into the Inn this evenin' " More On Alfred "I lold them cops I look a pot shot at him," Washy said with a snicker. "I couldn't help myself, I always wanted to, an' there he stood outlined against that ell, big as a barge! I knew I hadn't ought to of, but I could n't help myself. I just had to, Ascy." "Wasn't carryin' anylhin,' was he?" Ascy asked. "Like a large bundle, maybe?" Washy laughter. "Say, you couldn't tell, with him? Once I seen him walk in that kind of a waddle of his' from the garage lo the car, an' it wasn't till ten minutes later that I realized he'd been luggin' a tire all the time! He ain't such a bad shot. Used to be a cop, you know." "Alfred? He was a cop?" (To be continued) Brazil is considering ihe os tablishmcnt of a wood pulp in dustry.
