Chapter Savon DISAPPEARANCE GRAHAMS strode toward the phone. As he seated himself, he pushed his Angers through his hair. He made an unconscious gesture about bis necktie. He dialed a num ber that was scrawled upon the tele phone pad. A maid answered the call. No, Miss Kent wasn't at home. Oh, Mr. Grahame? Would he wait a moment, please? He watched the little clock upon the table across the room tick away the minutes. He listened Intently, wondering it the connection had been broken but, no, there was no dial buzz. He smiled a little ruefully, thlnk- ly to Grahame, Ignoring Wlnslow. She had large eyes with long lashes; her balr was blue-black. Her skin was a little sallow, but she waa good-looking. "She expected your call. She said It you phoned within the next bait hour to tell you she expected to have dinner with you. Otherwise she'd talk with you herself. You phoned. I came In here to tell her. She wasn't here . . . Just this." She pointed to the crystal powder Jar which lay in p'leces upon the rug. "Didn't you hear it fall?" Her glance met Grahame's, then Ahltted to tbe floor again, "The rug Is very thick." Wlnslow grunted. He said: "If she went out, what did she wear? Is that her dress on the day bed?" "She was to wear that tonight. I put It out." "Where are the things she wore when she came in? What were they?" The maid frowned, thinking. "A blue ensemble." She glanced around. "It Isn't here. I'll look In the closet." She stepped across the room and opened a door. Wlnslow, behind her, whistled thinly and muttered, "Some closet." IT WAS a small room; row upon row of clothes stretched across It on hangers. Wlnslow pointed to E Each day In Med ford aeema to bring with It a mora generous flow ing of beer, and the word generous Is used In It literal aense. The few dlspensera, who early last weelc re fused to adopt the five cent price, were meeting the competition today by serving for dime more than twice the amount of beverage given under previous circumstances at that price. In fact Vie new stand ard with them la "A short pint for a dime." No one has called It a "beer war", but It begins to look and smell like one. f SEATTLE, Jan. 32.- (AP) Eight patients In the main building of the I small Laurel Beach hospital at 'Fauntelroy, a suburban district, were safe today after a tremendous earth slide had demolished the two-story structure. HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Jan. 33. (AP) Having met with scant success in her campaign to break Into the mov ies as a dramatic actress, Sally Band disclosed today she would take up n fans again on the stage in the hope of earning money enough to enable her to put away forever the big white plumes that helped to make her known. Miss Rand announced she would abandon Hollywood and return to the stage for 40 weeks, after which she would come back to clnemaland and Just stt and alt until Hollywood glvea her what she wants. BEND, Ore., Jan. 22. (AP) Miss Jane Moffatt, for nearly seven years Deschutes county nurse, today re signed to accept the position of Douglas county nurse. Dance at Rogue Elk Saturday night, February 3. pin L M it1 J , f "What was on that hanger7" Inf that perhaps this delay was but the beginning of bis knowledge of women. Someone had said that wo men were never conscious ot time ivlib men. Some Ironical husband, perhaps. He fell a pleasant tingling at the Immediate correlation of ideas that swarmed In his mind. That Janice Kent should keep him waiting waa thrilling Indeed. A breathless voice finally an wered. "This I' tbe maid speaking again, Mr. Grahame." Her voice sounded curiously disturbed. "Miss Kent Isn't at home. No, no. Don't misun derstand me. She thought you would call, and was waiting. But when I went to her room she was gone! Hello! Hollo! Are you still there. Mr. Grahame? . . ." "Yes, Tell me. Hurry. Gone, you say?" "Yes, gone. But she couldn't be. She was not quite dressed. But there's a jar of powder brokon and spilled on the floor" Grahame interrupted, "I'll come right out." He hung up tbe receiver. He waited a moment and savagely dialed a number. "Hello. Spin? Say, Spin, get over hero. Instantly. What's that? For get It. This Is serious. Just talked with Janice Kent's maid. Janice Is gone. Yes, yes. Disappeared. Hur ry!" As he stepped from the doorway of his apartment house into the street, headlights flashed upon him. Wlnslow, In his blue roadster, had hurried. TpHB maid said with a trace of sullennoss In her voice: "I tell yon Miss Kent always tells me where she will be. There may be studio calls, you know." Grahame put his hand on Wins low's arm. "Lay off her, Spin," be remonstrated. "You try," Wlnslow suggested. He watched the maid narrowly. "How long ago was It," ques tioned Grahame, "that you saw her?" She glanced at the clock on the dresser. "An hour ... a little less. Miss Kent ssld she would He down for a while, then dress." She spoke direct- the end of a hanger that stuck out from one of the nearer rows. "What was on that?" "I don't A coat, I think. Thoy're all coats on this rack." A bell rang faintly. Footstops sounded. They looked toward the doorway of the room. A dapper little man entered. He wore a pearl gray suit, a gray shirt and tie. There was a pearl set In the ring he wore. Only the tips of bis shoes showed black under gray spats. He said, In clipped syllables, "Hullo, Wlnslow. Hullo, Mr. Gra hame." Grahame nodded. Wlnslow said, "Hullo, Greono. How'd you got here? This Isn't one of your damned pub licity stunts, is It?" Greeno looked aggrieved. "Cor talnly not, Spin. Paula phoned me." He nodded toward the maid. "Phone anybody else?" Wlnslow turned to the girl. "Mr. Myborg. Ho should be here any time." "Have you phoned anybody else?" repeated Wlnslow. "No." "Did anybody phone this num ber?" Almost the girl hesitated. "No," she said. "You wouldn't He to me, would you?" Wlnslow smiled sardonically. "Who phoned, Paula?" "Quit It, Spin," said Grahame Im patiently. "You won't get anywhere that way. I think we'd better notify the police . . . right now." "No!" Both Wlnslow and Greene spoke togother. Even the maid's lips formed the word. Grahnmo said, surprised, "Well, what " "No " A strange voice spoke from the doorway. "We will not notify the police ... not yet." They turned. A man stood at the door. His head was round and bald, and sat upon hla shoulders like an ornnge on a box; there scorned to be no neck. His figure was short and burly, and clad In black. Greeno called effusively, "ittitti Myberg. How glad I am you're here Now wo may" tCefytitH, l'3t, h Heite'l ),:) Tomorrow, Mr. Myb.rg t.k.s I hand. S'MATTER POP By C. M.
