How do you like thUT An order (or seventy-flve buckt and liiten: Sorry about the coat. Hope you can find another one to take its place. . . . Raeburn." Fenner lined and Docketed the oaDeri. "fm Klad I didn't tanale with him," he aaid. "If they'got a few more guys like him down there In Caragua those Nazis are going to have rough going." "You're right about that damn him!" Hestor spoke curtly, but with out bitterness. She uncrossed her legs under the approving glance of Fenner and stood up. She ad Justed her coat, tucked her bag ana moves unaer her arm and gave a tug at her hat. "Well-good-bye," she said to Delia and Ward. "It's been very interesting, you know. I wouldn t have missed It for the world." She looked Joyce up and down. S lanced at Murdock and back to oyce. "I'd hang on to him if I were you. He's a little stuffy at times but he'll do," "I'll drive you home," Fenner saia. Hestor cave him a cool InsDec tion but Fenner's grin was un wavering and after a little more hesitation a spark of humor toucnea ner eyes. "All right," she said. "That Is," Fenner said, "if you don't mind stopping off for a drink or two. We might even have a spot of lunch." "Why not?" said Hestor. Fenner opened the door for her, and when he went out he winked at Murdock over his shoulder. "Well," Ward Allen said when the door had closed, "I'll say this or her, she can take It" "You know," Joyce said, "t think I'm beginning to like Hes tor." Kent Murdock parked In front ef the apartment house and turned off the motor. "And now, Mrs. Murdock, If fou don't mind . . ." "Yea, air," Joyce said primly.1 Cairo, Aug. 17 (IP) Amer ican fighter pilots are flying as wing mates of the RAF in a new outburst of aerial activity over the desert and overseas supply lines, it was disclosed today along with the conservative On Land, in 1 . if lit PrelrraDiy en Una, areardlni to Invrntur J.

"But someone had to, my Lord." "Yeah," Murdock said, and grinned. "You're right there, and what a break for Ward and Delia." "I didn't want to do anything alone, really. But at first Delia made me promise and later, when I asked if you'd help you said you wouldn't and you told me I shouldn't either and" "So you got your back up and said, 'Nuts to this. If he won't help I'll do It alone.' " "I called you at Hester's," Joyce reminded him. "If it hadn't been for Raeburn I would have told you when you came with her." Murdock's face sobered. "You knew it was Thorndike." "I didn't know. Not for abso lutely sure." "When did you think of It?" "Not until today. At first I had no idea who'd done it I was try ing to help Delia, and all the trouble seemed to be about the envelope. I think Hestor was the one I suspected until you told me she couldn't have done it" Impulsively she leaned forward and kissed him lightly on the cheek. "1 love you," she said. He turned to her, his glance surprised at first and then a tenderness melting his eyes as his arm went about her. "I love you too," he said, and kissed her. For long secqnds she snuggled In the circle of his arm, finding his strength a tonic that chased away the strain and tension of the past few days. "Do you have to go to the of fice?" "For a little while." "Yes." she sighed. "1 sunnoia you do." "I don't think I'll be long." He smiled and kissed her lightly and helped her out, following her to the entrance. irWe should have some sort of celebration at that, shouldn't we? For Mrs. Murdock'f first case." And for Mrs. Murdnnlr. last Joyce said. "So do hurry, darling! Trie End British report that the RAF had downed at least 10 of the axis planer, nttacking the Malta con voy during the week.
