.)Ja.aSri'mW.toM MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1939. Meet Mr.Lochmvar By Maria Chapter 38 ' 'A Lot Of Telling' "1VTHERE is Philip?" , "In jail, ma'am." 1 beg your pardon?'' Locke ' mocked. "Say, you even got me mixed up." The sheriff roared at his joke. Olivia said, "Mr. Callen Isn't Mr. Callen," as though that explained it "He's a long-wanted Jewel thief, member of an international ring," Dr. MacDonald said. Cecily said, "And I'm the Queen of the May, I suppose. Or, am I de lirious?" Gloria said, "If you'll all keep quiet I'll try to make it plain. Ce cily, Philip Callen is really Slick Rawlins. Only he's really . . . Gloria broke down, laughing. She reached across Cecily's cot and clutched Locke's good hand. "This is Philip Callen, you little liar your 8anceT' Cecily fat up. "No, she isn't a liar, Miss Watts. She is my fiancee, aren't you, dar linp?" "In that case," Olivia pro nounced, wrapping her quilt about her, "I suggest that we go and have a look at the remnants of my house and allow Cecily's nance to tell her the story himself." "Don't forget your Jewels, Moth er," Gloria said, picking up the leather case that had been lying on the table. "You ought to have learned a lesson tonight" Cecily's eyes avoided Locke's only he wasn't Locke any more as the others went out Then she said, "I wish I could crawl under this cot" . He said, "Shall we?" "Oh, Locke ... I mean ..." "Locke's my name," he said. "I told you it was, Philip Locke Cal len." "You told it to me once before and I didn't believe you. Oh, dar ling, how can you ever forget the way I've treated youl The things I thought about youl Only I didn't down in my heart" "I know more about your heart man you do, young lady, ana I m going to spend the rest of my life telling you about it" ."You1!! have a lot of telling to dot And you might start now, Tm, eompieieiy in me aarx. nou seem to be everybody's darling as well as mine. Of course, that's not unex pected exactly except that they don't know you as well as I do. You ee that's the surprising thing (bout it I didn't know that they knew you." "They didn't Cecily, I never no ticed before that your nose turns up. I thought you were only turn ing it up at me." "I'll do worse than that if you don't go on." "Well, then, not only was I un known liere but I am also practi cally unknown everywhere and mat s the way It all began. Pulp Writer . "ARE you really going to talk 1 sense? she pleaded. "If I don't look at you I may be ante to. otherwise my mind wan ders. All right ... all right, look out for that bad arm. Now then I'm a pulp writer, which means that nobody ever heard of me be cause I use a string of pen names. I did have one book to which I carelessly attached my real name. And that one book didn t make me famous. As far as I knew, no one had ever heard of Philip Callen." He struggled to get at a cigarette with his left hand. Cecily managed It for him. "I'm going to be a help to you." she snicl. "You are, my love. I got this," he Indicated his helpless hand, "slug ging a guy right on the kisser." "What's a Kisser?" He demonstrated. "We'll probably have to spend the winter here if I'm to hear the rest of this story," she said pa tiently. "Imagine my surprise one bright summer morning to discover via the New York Chronicle that I Philip Callen, no less 'prominent author was the house-guest of the distinguished Madame uarrell." "I saw that clipping. In fact I tent it toJoanTuthill of the Chron icle myselfl" "Providence moves In a strange way . . . Well, sir, I says to myself, rd better take myself for a little trip and And out what poor bloke has to use my name. Then, on that fortuitous night when ; fell into your clutches ..." Cecily made a face at him and got kissed for her trouble. "Where was I? Oh, yea, that first night ... I discovered that you seemed startled when I told you my real name. 1 sez, "Philip, this lady knows that bird and mav be we can find out something.' But PIT RIVER BRIDGE BIOS ARE OPENED BACRAMENTO.

LONGSHORE DISPUTE BAN FRANCISCO. Oct. . ,! The Waterfront Employers association an' Bounced today the longshore labor Bliurd" I never expected to find out that fou were engaged to him. Now, m an honorable young man and I don't believe that a fellow should use another fellow's name when he asks a girl to marry him." . He paused to get her approba-. tlon. ' I'm slad I can count on vou. she replied obligingly. "But I told you I really wasn't engaged to him, didn't I?" "Yes. ma am. and rieht then I got thinking. I looked that fellow over and I thought: what would he want to stick around a place like Darelea all summer for? It didn't look right It was fishy enough to make ma stick around and watch. "Then Lady Whosia lost a valu able pin and Pushface was on the party. I thought I'd have a look at the records and see if he had any portraits hanging around the de tective Bureaus, lie nao. ceciiyi Front and side views and five thousand dollars reward from a syndicate of insurance companies." ' Why didn t you nab him then? Cecily demanded, unconscious that she was falling into Locke's ver nacular. "Its been tried before, dear child. He's slick. The idea was to get the goods on him. You and Laura almost forced my hand. Then the night that the brute slugged her from behind . . ." "Oh, my darling, is that what happened?" "That's what happened. How it did, I don't know, but I picked her up in the road, unconscious, and she says no one knew that she was coming to my place." . ' 'Heaven" "IV AIT a minute, Locke . . . Tm ' ' remembering something! That night I called Laura on the tele phone and said that I wanted to see you. I called from the house and Philip must have overheard me and been suspicious that I was suspicious. Go on." "Then he probably slugged her thinking she was you. Next step was easy. Everybody knew about the concert knew that it was a dressed-up affair, that this opera gang would be bringing a fortune in jewels. Any child would know that this was the night when a thief would pull his big coup ..." , "But Mrs. Goodale's necklace?" "He didn't intend to do that. He just got itchy fingers and couldn't resist the temptation. Discretion ffnt th hAttpr nart nf vnlnr anrl hn slipped it into your pocket." vub w nai. nt.c vuu uuulK HI MIC Yacht Club?" "Having what's known ac a look see. I'd been away looking up some records and thought I'd find out if he was still around when I got back. I knew you'd start asking me questions, as usual, so I ducked." Cecily's cheeks were pink with excitement "Go on, dear, this is more exciting than any of it What .about tonight?" "For awhile I was afraid I'd miss tonight and I got in a stew . . . Had to go to New York to finish a movie sale. By the way, we'll have ten thousand dollars to start married life on. Five for the sale of the book and five for the reward." "Moneyl You talk of money when I'm expiring with curiosity!" "Honey, I've been hanging around these grounds all evening waiting for you all to go to bed. Then I settled down cosily to a little meditation outside of Ma dame Dan-ell's room, knowing the jewels were in there and that friend Rawlins would make for there. "What I didn't count on was that he was going to start a fire to cover up and grab the loot in the excite ment I thought he'd just grab and run. He gave the alarm himself and the flro was well under way when he gave it Madame Darrell rushed out of her room. He rushed in! So did I! Well ..." He shrugged his shoulders. "I know the rest." she said sweetly. "You knocked him out and got him . . . well, I know that they've ?ot him. Then you came looking or me, didn't you?" "Well, I went looking for you. I thought it was time I put you in your place." "Flat on some stone steps?" "Oh, sweet! I'm sorry . . . but I've got two arms and they both belong to you." ''You've got a black eye! And I suppose that belongs to me, too?" "That's what they call a mouse, Cecily. And you're right it belongs to yoa Having only one eye. 1 11 have to see through yours." Cecily swayed toward him. "Philip Callen, no mere man could bear the brightness of the things I'm seeing through them now." "Close them," he said, "and tell me what you see now." He kissed them gently and Cecily said, "Heaven!" The Cn4. rotations committee had tailed to settle a dispute involving a C.l-O. ship clerks union picket Una at the Panama Pacific company pier here, and Arbitrator Wayne L. Morae had been summoned. An association spokesman said the employer charged the longshoremen with collusion in refusing to pas the plcekt line to unload the city of Newport News, which arrived yes terday.
