S216 M222) r' The Plot Against Santa by Lucrece HudKins Chapter 16 Pelcr Tries the Golden Key Six great bearded soldiers with lighted torches led Peter down three winding corridors until they came to a huge iron door. It took three of the sol diers to turn the key in the lock and push the door open. On the other side was a narrow flight of stairs down which the sol diers dragged the boy. The light from the torches cast strange reflections on the cold damp walls but as they descended lower and lower even tho torches seemed to flicker and grow dim. When they reached, the bot tom of the stairs there was an other flight to descend and af ter that, another, and still an other. At last they reached the last stair and there was an other heavy door which the guards must unlock and push open with all their strength. When it was thrown open the light of the torches fell on a row of liny cells. Peter could hear a low moan ing but it was so dark he could n't see the prisoners who stood behind the barred doors. The soldiers threw him into the nearest cell and marched away leaving only one small torch to light the dungeon. Peter shivered and drew his jacket high, around his throat. He felt like crying because he was quite frightened but he knew that tears would do him no good. He felt his way to the side of the cell and sudden ly he gave a cry of astonish ment for his hand had touched a man's arm. "W who are you?" he quav ered. The arm stirred and a man slowly turned and faced Peter. The light of the torch was so dim that all the boy could see was a thin figure of a man with a narrow face and a long beard. "I am Charles," said the man in a harsh voice. "King of Aradoonc." Peter's eyes widened with amazement. "But you you arc dead!" he gasped, for he well remembered how Uttar had be come king on the death of his brother, Charles. The man laughed grimly.

X305 Open Sawdust Fire Nuisance Maintenance of an open saw dust fire with no device or ap paratus for control shoujd be enjoined but reasonably con trolled burner or furnace should not be included in an injunc tory decree, the state supreme court held today as it upheld but modified the decree of lhe circuit court for Lane county in the case of Linus W. Lindley vs. Wilbur H. Hyland and oth ers (Eugene Planing Mill). The case, which came to the court here on appeal by the defendants, involved claims of the plaintiff that smoke and refuse from the mill's fires en veloped his home and caused him to suffer physically. Lind ley had asked for $500 damages in his suit for an injunction, and received the injunction but not the damages. Since he had not appealed, the supreme court could not award him the money asked, the opinion, written by Associate Justice Percy R. Kelly, points out. However, the opinion continues with an ex pression of belief that the plaintiff had suffered damages. The court denied a petition for a rehearing in the case of Lane vs. Hatfield, a death dam age action growing out of a pedestrian-traffic accident, in which the plaintiff was award ed $5000 by a circuit court in Marion county. Two Negroes Admit Grocery Hold-up Seattle, Dec. 21 (U.R)Two negroes, James Wilson, 32, and Persia Willaims, 38, confessed yesterday to the grocery store holdup last week which result ed in the death ol Joseph Ro magnoli and the wounding of his wife, Marie, and Frank Nesco, a roomer. Williams, who was arrested Friday, admitted he had parti cipated in the crime and men tioned Wilson as an accomplice. Wilson was arrested immedia tely and also signed a confes sion. Each blamed the other for shooting the grocer. Military mail transported over seas averages more than 50,000, pieces a week. "That is what my brother has told the world," he said. "But he himself cast me into this dungeon 18 months ago and made himself king." "But why don't you es cape?" cried Peter. "How escape?" asked Char les bitterly. "You saw how many locked doors lie between us and freedom. There's not a chance of getting out. I'll bo here until 1 die and so will you." "Not I!" cried Peter. "1 must get out and soon." And he told Charles the story ot Santa's sled and reindeer which were locked in the King's stables. "So you see I must escape," he finished. "Or there will bo no more Christmas in Aradoonc. And you must escape, too, for only by restoring you as right ful king will the people ever be happy again." "Yes, that is true," agreed Charles. "But only magic will save us." "Well, then," said Peter, "I believe that I have that magic." "What:" cried Charles. "You have magic?" Then Peter told him about the ivory horse that had be come a real live horse when he most needed it. "But a horse will do us no good here," said Charles. "No," agreed Peter, "but I have also a golden key!" And he pulled out of his pocket the tiny gold key the sick mother had given him. Charles examined the key eagerly. At last he was be ginning to have hope. "Try it!" he exclaimed, his hands shak ing wilh excitement. "Try it at once!" Quickly Peter stuck the key in the padlock which bound the cell door. "It's loo small!" he gasped, tears of disappointment spring ing to his eyes. Charles bent over the lock. "Wait!" he whispered. And a mcnt later he cried, "It is get ting larger! It is growing to the size of the lock. It fits exactly!" And suddenly he turned the key and the padlock fell open!

Approach of the winter solstice, creeping without warning upon the nation's over - burdened alarm clocks, today brought the following advice from the weather bureau, astronomers and clock fixers: "Wind your clock up tight to night The longest of the 'year Tomorrow is the shortest day From dawn to dusk's so near You may not hear the bell at all This warning is a must So wind your clock up tight tonight And pray the spring won't bust." The winter solistice, marking the long and short of the day and night business, occurs at 1:30 p. m., EWT, Dec. 22. It is the time the sun "stands still" and brings more wear and tear on the alarm clock than any other day. After the solstice, the days grow longer and, theoreti cally, it's easier to wake up. Significance Seen in MacArthur Silence Washington, Dec. 21 (IT) Supporters of Gen. Douglas MacArthur as a potential presi dential candidate, are taking his silence as golden assurance of acceptance if he is drafted. Sen. Vandenberg (Ft., Mich.), says: "I shall continue to as sume that he will accept unless he says he would not." Interest in the MacArlhur-for-President move has been heightened by two principal de velopments. The first was the disclosure by the war depart ment that an officer is not bar red from accepting a nomina tion for office: The second was the report that MacArthur re cently touched on the subject of United States politics in an off-tho-rccord conference with a visiting Canadian newspaper parly.
