PAGE EIGHT Chapter Nina Bad New SOMETHING ran swiftly along Joyce's nerves and left them ? and tingling. She put her hand on Delia's, and laid, quick ly: "But what did you do?" "I Jumped up and ipilled my drink. I certainly didn't want to be found alone with Perry Clarke. He must have been a little upset too. He hurried me Into a halL "'You can wait here If you like,' he said. I told him that I'd come back. Just then the knock ing started again, and so he said there was a door in the kitchen and I could so down the back stairs. 'And be sure you make it quiet' he said." Delia pressed Joyce's hand. "He went back to the living room and closed the door. I stood there a moment the hall was Hunted and noticed that there were two rooms opposite each other. One waa a bedroom." "Delia!" Joyce caught her breath. "You didn t " "I did." Delia said. "The mo ment I thought of it I knew I'd do it. I was stiff with fright and yet I couldn't help it No one could hear me, and something told me I d have time. , . . well, there were two bags in the closet and the first one I opened held two envelODes. One was thick and bulky and I opened the flap, lit was filled with money or ibonds or stock of some kind rand lots of it . . . Well, I knew rthat couldn t be what Ward wanted so I out It back and Ticked up the other one. When saw what was in it I took it" Joyce leaned back, unable to aummon any tunner capacity lor surprise. "Ail right," she said. "What was in It?" "Wait until I tell you the rest, Delia said. "I went back in the hall I could hear voices but I couldn t hear what was said and tiptoed through the kitchen and out the back door. 1 was ac tually shaking I was so excited, and I kept stumbling and feeling my way along in the darkness. Finally I got outside, but it was just as dark there, although I could see a street light at the end of the alley. I hurried back to the corner and started across the street In front of the apartment house where I'd parked. And then, Just before I'd reached my car. I saw Ward's coupe. It was ithree or four cars behind me and I wasn't positive at first so I stepped out in the street and walked up to it and made sure," What To Do? SOMEWHERE down on the street, Joyce heard a car door slam, the sound of a motor in rapid acceleration: then every thing was quiet again except the pounding of her heart Aware at last that Delia was waiting for her reaction, she made the neces sary adjustments and found- her voice. "It was Ward then who knocked?" "It must have been," Delia aid. 'That's why I came straight here. At first I was going to wait ior him and then I decided I'd better not Perry Clarke is bound to know what happened to the envelope. I suppose he could have me arrested if he wanted to. couldn't he? After all, I did steal it." "What about Ward?" Joyce asked. ' "How do you mean?" Delia caid. "It'll be all right won't it? He probably went up there to get the envelope, and now it's safe and can't hurt him. Either he'll find out It's been stolen or he won't and in anv case" She Ihesitated, the excitement dying lin her. "Only I don't know what to IE ABUSERS TO SUFFER PENALTY The local rationing board to day Issued the following state ment for publication: "To the people of Jackson county: Persons guilty of negli gence or abuse in care of their tires may be denied certificates even though they are otherwise eligible. With this serious sit uation now right upon us and with the seasonal demands for tires recoming greater It is In cumbent upon the local ration ing board to enforce this pen alty Insofar as they can. "If an eligible car or truck operator runs his tires to the THE NEIGHBORHOOD LEAGUE 1U BlftEBfia TCAM TtflS TurV ARE Kfi NrttiV CONTRIBUTING TO THE VWR EFFORT, oECAUSE EVERY TlM WEV 105E A BALL IN THE UN'DERfiRCWIH fHtY TURN UP Art ASSORTMENT Of JUKK TrW CM BE by Gcorg Harmon Cox do about It Will you keep It for me, in case the police do come?" "I don't imagine they will." Joyce said. "Perhaps we'd better look at it. Delia went to her coat and pro duced the envelope. Joyce took out four pieces of caper. Two of them were newspaper clippings printed in Spanish, one of them a two column story with a pic turt of Ward near the top. The other two, she saw at once, had nothing to do with Ward, but concerned Perry Clarke. The first was the photostatic copy of a marriage certificate, a French document dated in November 1937 and stating that Hestor and Perry Clarke had been married in Paris: the second was a copy of a divorce, also issued in Paris, and bearing the date of Auguet 1938. "I guess what I did was pretty awful." Delia said. "Mad is the word," Joyce said, "snd even that's an understate ment" She gave her attention to the clippings. "Can you read Spanish? ' "Some." "Do you know what these say?" "Well not really. I saw Ward's picture and the headline. I'm not sure I want to know. I mean" she paused, eyes anxious and disturbed "do you think i should, Joyce? Oh, I don't know what to do." ' The Call JOYCE realized what she meant ' She had a smattering of Span ish, enough to know that the headline of one clipping said something about an American be ing arrested in a Jewel theft that the other announced Ward Allen had been released in $2500 bail. "Should I Just seal the en velope and mail it to Ward?" Delia said. "And not let him know where it came from? Or should I tell him everything and let him know it doesn't matter to me?" Joyce had been reading as the girl spoke, and from what she could gather from her sketchy translation it seemed that Ward had been the guest of a Countess de Ferani at a small party, which had lasted most of the night, ac companied by much drinking. Upon awakening later in tne day the Countess had discovered the loss of a pearl necklace and a valuable bracelet which had been found subsequently in Ward Allen's rooms . . , She looked at Delia, wonder ing how much the girl knew. and just how she should advise her. She was. saved from mak ing a decision by the ringing of the telephone, and returned the papers to the envelope before she answered. It was Kent. "You In bed?" he asked. She told him no and he said: "Well. don't wait up for me, I may be very late. "Oh." Joyce said. "All right dear. Something special?" Murder. I ran into it on my way home." There was a moment of silence. "Maybe I should tell you. It's Perry Clarke." Something cold subbed at Joyce and her throat froze. She looked at Delia. Tne girl was watching her and slipping into her coat, her smile mildly curi ous. Joyce turned away, sick with horror and dismay, the growing silence piling up on her in heavy, stilling layers. "Hey,1' Kent's voice said. "You there?" "Yes." She found her voice and strove to discipline it "You mean he " "Shot twice," Kent said. "And not so very long ago. I'll tell you all when I see vou. 'Bye." Joyce hung up slowly, sum moning every resource so that she might face Delia calmly. To be continued point of destruction and does not make application to the local board for recapping ser vice In sufficient time to pre vent the total destruction of his tires then the local board should Invoke this penalty clause. In this way will It make it possible for the local board to Issue cer tificates for recapped tires, which quota will always be con siderably larger than that of new truck tires. It will, by this means, salvage an eligible car cass subject to recapping and will save approximately 75 of the rubber that would be con sumed If the tire were used to the point whereby it could not be recapped; and, therefore, the replacement of a new tire would be required. This penalty provis ion must be considered along with every application presented to this local rationing board." By GLUYAS WILLIAMS MEDFORD MAIL Circus Brings 7" mWWiigi&hiHtltn, A Circus Fan's DreamI Th camera "A festive fairyland phantas-1 magoria of all that Is wondrous and appealing in the enchanted I realm of sawdust and spangles. With characteristic verbal en thusiasm, an inspired press agent thus describes Russell Bros.' great three-ring circus which will be on view at Medford, Monday, June 29, back of the Jackson school. A phantasmagoria, according to Mr. Webster, is a "shifting manifold assemblage of things seen." A suggestion of this Idea Is conveyed in the photo montage above, made up of a cameraman's random shots on the Russell Bros, "lot." At the top, Bandmaster Eddie Woeckencr blows the clarion call to Spangleland, Chana Accvados waves greetings from atop the big elephant, Sadie, and her sister, Betty, poses with Stripo, the zebra. Below, Winston s equestrian sea lions reveal a new slant on trained seal ex hibitions, Milonga of the Seven Skyrocketing Escalantes poses with LcCola, the clown, and Princess Mailu displnys Bomba, one of her huge jungle pythons. And these, the circus emissary hastens to add, arc only a few of the myriad sights which are to be unfolded under the "big top," In the menagerie, and within the canvas confines of the "big double annex," com monly known as the side show. Other features include Chris tiansen's South American Criol- lo horses, the Sensational De Waynes, the Bell-Thazer troupe, the Grace Orton trio, Clarkon- lans, Freehand Bros,, White's leaping greyhounds, the world's only troupe of performing Great Dane dogs, Mnree and Her Pals, Bnrney, the movie chimpanzee. and Congo, gargantuan African ape. Doors open at 1 and 7 p. m. nd the big show performances start at 2 and 8.

If milk Is poured Into a container lined with soma substance such as paraffin little of th cream will rise until a glass rod Is Inserted in the fluid, or until a scratch is made in the lining, exposing th milk to direct contact with th glassl Experts explain this by pointing out that milk bears a negative electrical charge, while the glass bear a positive charge. This opposite polarity repels the fat particles, which form the bulk of th cream, and causes them to gather at th top of th container. Correspondent Social Error Natives Of Pribilofs Evacuated To Posts in Southeast Alaska Juneau, Alaska, June 27 (AP) Evacuation of 550 natives from the Pribilofi and from Atka island was reported in a dispatch released for publication by navy and army authorities today.
