He could sea tho mu llclan's gaunt figure plainly, framed in the doorway hut he knew that Weeks could be certain of nothing except that someone bad gained entrance to Myrna's orison room. hi. flnsprs bitlna deep In Myrna's shoulders, Tait pushed her toward the side ol the room, and at that moment Weeks' voice roared out, "Come on . . . out here, or I'll shoot." Almost Immediately a shot crashed into "the room through the open doorway, and Weeks, bewil dered and blind In the darkness, followed the direction ol his re volver. From the side of the room Tait rushed out In his hands was the only weapon he had been able to discover a chair. With all his strength he brought It down across the neck and shoulders of Weeks. Then, grasping In the dark for Mym. and finding her clutching, T trembling fingers, he started for the door. -.' The sight of the stairway and Hha silence behind him -were the " ' greatest relief that Bob Tait had ever known in his lifetime. Half - dragging Myrna beside him, he rushed through the dingy lobby and out into the street The taxi was 6till there! "The Clarcmont," Tait gasped. TTE had scarcely closed the cab door behind himself and Myrna'when the gears meshed and the cab roared away. They had gone the space of six or seven blocks when he realized that he was clutching Myrna tight in his arms. Embarrassed, he relln nulshed his nervous hold. "Are you are you all right?" Khe nodded slowly. "Yes." She managed a smile. Tm still scared, ithough." , j Tait laughed in sheer relief. i"That was a foolhardy thing I did back there. But I didn't want Weeks to recognize me." ; "Weeks?" Myrna looked at him, ipuzzlcd. ; "How did you know his name?" ' He told her of the advertisement In the classified column of the newspaper, and of how he had listened at Harris Rogers'' door. "How did he manage to kidnap you?" "I went for a walk," Myrna said. "There was a car at the curb and this man was in it He pretended he was ill when I went by. I went to the car and the next thing I knew I was in that horrible room. He the man is crazy.' I was afraid to move." Myrna shud dered. "You're all right now," Bob Tait said. "When you were in that room did you ever hear Rogers?" Myrna shook her head. "Weeks didn't have any visitors, except Leonard Macy." "Macyl Are you sure?" "Yes. I heard him introduce himself." "What did they talk about?" "I don't know. After Macy came fa and introduced himself. Weeks owered his voice and so did Macy. I couldn't hear what they were saying." Tait frowned. "I wonder If that Hake criminologist isn't mixed up in this, and trying to palm off the FLAPPER FANNY -COPR. 1938 BY HEA SERVICE, "Maybe the hero uses a double, but don't tell me good ole VVhito Kir, or ilnaa that luiriu ia a ran A CTflR."

You've enough to worry about The thing I want you to do is get back to Ihe Clarcmont and show yourself to Anno. She's frantic." "I can Imagine. She warned me not to leave the place alone, but I insisted and said she was fool ish." rpHE cab stopped with a sudden L inlt. Tnit looked out to sec tho familiar outlines of the Clarcmont "I won't go up with you, Myrna. I want to talk to Fecley. Listen, can you and Anne come to a little parly I'm giving tonight at the Golrten Bowl?" "Party?" exclaimed Myrna. "I don't " "Well, it's a sort of a party. And it's important that you come. Will you?" "Of course, Bcb. Only" She stopped, put a hand on his arm. ' You look so tired and worried, Hob. I'm afraid "ve been a fright fil nuisance. After all, there's no r-ason why you should He stopped her with a look. "We've a date, then. Only I'm asking vou and Anne to meet me at the Golden Bowl. I'll have to make 6ome arrangements, oay a. 9 o'clock?" "Nine o'clock," Myrna smiled. Vot until the doors of the Clare- mont had closed behind Myrna did Bob Tait give the taxi driver me signal to go on. "I want to go down to police headquarters," Tait said. ANNIE FEELEY greeted him Where in the devil is Myrna Dom bey?" "At the Clarcmont where she lives," Tait said. 'Then you've Just taken her there." Tait flushed despite himself. "I'U have to admit that Dannie. But anvhow she's there. "But she wasn't That's the point Barkley's been here. Bob, and he's raising the works and putting a prop "under them. He found out Myrna had flown the cood and you left me all unbut toned by not telling me. I didn't know it Barkley said he'd been made a fool of, and now he's going to make one out of me. It might interest you to know that he's go ing to spring a story in the papers tomorrow. And that means Myrna Dombev's goose is cooked." The detective regarded Tait sourly. "Where was she? On a little vaca tion? Did you ever happen to draw her a picture of the fact that she's charged with murder; "She was kidnaped by George Weeks," Tait said. "I followed Weeks this afternoon and he went to Rogers' apartment I overheard them talking about Myrna. Weeks had her hidden at the Belvedere Hotel. I Just now drooDed her off at the Claremont" Feeley's eyes widened and his ample jaw dropped slowly. "I'm giving a little party tonight" Tait went on, "and I'd like to have you come. Dannie." "A party, is Itl This mess and you're giving a partyl I suppose it's in honor of Myrna going to the" chair and me losing my job!" "I hope not Dannie. Will you come?" The Irishman's eyes narrowed now. "I got a hunch you mean business. Who's going to be there?" "I'm asking Anne Lester and Myrna.- Harris Rogers, Leonard Macy. Nelda Starr and yourself." "What about your screwy musi- tian? Surely you're going to in vite him to the party?" "Have you forgotten, Mr. Farns worth? He's going to be featured tonight with The Swingateers! .
