Murder b Murder'
CHE didn't know the wu giv
ing up her chance," Jeff
Mid. "And It leemi this iin't
luit any old ring. It'i been In her
family tor five generation! and
it had become a legend. The Mc
Donald who wat In possession of
it never atepped on the atage
without wearing it And the
couldn't break that family tradi
tion. She hadn't known of couth
that ihe wai going to play, ao
the ring wu in her room, locked
up. She knew ahe'd have time to
get it and be back to the theater
Before the curtain. And ihe was.
but when ehe did get back, Carol
waa there."
"But why didn't ahe tell Tommy
why ahe waa going?"
"She knew lie wouldn't have
let her go. She had to ineak out"
For the moment I let my mind
drift back over those last five
days. "Jeff, it'a been horrible."
"Sure. Murder isn't a dancing
thing. It isn't a waits by Strauss.
Murder is murder."
Jeff had been staring out the
window when a moment Later he
said, "Haila, are you wondering
what has happened to Carol, and
what is going to happen to her?"
"Yes, I do think about her.
And worry."
"Well, you needn't worry any
more. Look."
At the curb girl In a dark
blue auit was standing beside a
man. Her face waa tilted up to
his, one copper-colored curl es
caping from the narrow brimmed
hat ahe wore. There was a look
of childlike wonder in her eyes
aa she listened to him talk. And
Vincent Parker was . loving it
We watched him call cab and
help her into it
Jeff grinned. "Well, Parker
found Lee Gray. And he'll have
both Carol Blanton and Lee Gray
in the same show. For the price
of one salary! It'll be terrific!
Pack 'em inl They'll flock cleat
from Jersey! Where is Jersey
Haila?"
I said, "Jeff, could we have
another drink?
"Why not? After all, I'm on my
vacation."
"Jeff," I said, ao suddenly It
surprised me, "let's use the last
week of your vacation for a
honeymoon!"
"You mean get married?"
"It doesn't count unless you're
married."
"Sure, Til get married if you
will! Why not? I said we would
I wnen i soivea ints case. And i
am soive u. Despite wnat Peterson
says. Sure we'll get married, just
like people! I can afford it now
on account of the reward. ..."
He groaned.
"What'e wrong, darling?"
"I caught the wrong guy!"
"You- mean Clint didn't mur
der ..."
"No. I don't mean that I mean
he's the one who hired me! And
I proved he committed' the mur
der! I bit the hand that waa go
ing to feed us."
"We'll get married anyway."
"Okay, out we won't eat Look,
Haila, Bowera is a gentleman.
Maybe he'll pay me.- He's got to
admit I did a good job."
"Clint Bowers isn't a gentle
man! I used to think so but not
any more! Oh, I could forgive
him for murder. I could forgive
him for that! But for striking
a lady, especially when the lady
was me . . ."
"You're all wrong, Haila, Bow
era didn't touch you."
"Oh. he didn't!"
"No, he didn't lay a finger on
you."
"He knocked me out!"
"No, Haila, what happened to
you is something that I've been
afraid would happen to you ever
since you , started being an
actress.
"And what would thet be?"
' "You got hit on the head with
a .theater seat."

NO BUSINESS AS USUAL
More than 75 years ago pioneer Felix Melghea opened a trading post at Forettvllle, Mlntu,
operating it until his death in 1910. His son. Thomas Meighen.-had not the time to devote to
the old store, and rather then see a stranger handling it. he locked the doors. For more than
31 years not a single article of merchandise has been sold from the well stocked shelves,
though Meighen has often given away Items aa souvenirs. Some of the goods date back to
the Civil war eral
