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

The local rationing board to

ment for publication:
"To the people of Jackson

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.

Invoke this penalty clause. In
this way will It make it possible
for the local board to Issue cer

means, salvage an eligible car

will save approximately 75 of
the rubber that would be con

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.

ELECTRIFIED CREAM
According to scientific tests. 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.

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

der orders, to an old cannery at
Funter Bay, Admiralty Island,
and to an abandoned saltery at
Killisnoo, in the Alexander
archipelago, both in southeastern
Alaska,
Most of them wera from the
Pribilof Islands.
The Pribilofs, a Bering sea
group, are often called "the fur
seal islands" because of the im
mense herds (estimated in recent
years at 1,900,000) which annu
ally migrate to the rookeries
there.
Atka Is one of the larger of
the westernmost Aleutian
islands, about midway between
Dutch Harbor, scene ol a recent
