She saw a shadowy figure turn from Dave Elson's prostrate body. Rather, he turned from the place where she knew Dave must lie. "Who are you?" The sound of her voice amazed her, it was so cool and even. No hint at all that her heart was pounding like a riveting machine. Nothing but a terrible silence answered her. Then "Out of my way, you!" Pat started. That voice! There was something about it, a certain husky appeal, that told her she would know this man the nexi : time they met. It was a voice to remember. It seemed like ages to Pat be fore the sound of his footsteps ' died away down the hall and she was kneeling beside Dave Elson. Some of the tightness went oul of her heart when she felt the even beat of his pulse. She stum bled through the darkness toward Mr. Parker's desk and groped around for the light she knew tc be there. Dave Elson was sprawled on tht floor, face down, arms out stretched. A little trickle of blood stained his brown hair. Pat gasped at the sight of it "Dave!" she cried, shaking hire a little. "Dave, can you hear me? When he didn't stir, Pat knew absolute terror for the first time in her life. She bit back a sob. If he would only move! She ran across the hall into the living room, turned on the lights and picked up the telephone. "1831-H" she told the operator, and waited impatiently. "Clem," she said when he answered, "Clem, this is Pat" Quickly, she told him what had , happened, heard him shout to his wife to get his hat and coat in a hurry. "111 be right there, Patrlda," he assured her. "You get back to Dave. Ill have Mary call the police." "JTJAVE was sitting up when Pat ' went back into the study. He rubbed his head and grinned sheepishly. "As detectives we're not so hot," he informed her. "Are you all right?" Pat nodded. She could not speak for an instant She was too . glad to hear his voice, to see him sitting there. "Give me a hand, Pat will you? i Tm a bit groggy. That guy had Vibia own ideas." . . .' : By the time Sam Blair and three police officers arrived, Dave s head . :was bandaged, rather awkwardly, : jjvith Pat's white silk scarf. He . had recovered enough to look around the room for anything the prowler might have left but there was nothing. All the evidence he had was a cut on the head. Pat was telling the police chief what -had happened when Clem Evans burst into the room. "Thank God you're all right!" He was breathless after running the six blocks from his house. "Did you recognize him, Patricia?" Pat hesitated. She heard again the "Out of my way, you" that had burned into her mind. She wondered if she should tell Clem and the police. "Of course she didn't recognize the guy." Dave answered for her. "How could she? It was dark as pitch and things happened pretty fast. Didn t they. Pat?" "They sure did," she agreed with a laugh, but she threw him a look of gratitude. "Gosh, was I scared!" THE Express office was deserted . when Pat reached it the next morning. She unlocked the door with the key Joe Parker had given her when he hired her. Fat smiled to herself as she went inside. She had never ceased liking it; in fact, it had grown on her. She loved the Express and what it stood for. . She felt all that now, for the quiet building, minus the clatter of the machines and the buzz of ; conversation, had become a mon ' ument to the man who had made : it all possible.

"That civic-minded paper of yours," his murderer had called it Pat felt a twinge of pride. How little he knew! "The early bird gels the worm and all of that Pat" The girl turned. She had not heard Dave Elson come in, but his own version of the age-old axiom made her feel better. She smiled. "Good morning, Dave. How's the noggin?" "Fine, thanks to your ministra tions. You missed your calling. You should have been a nurse."

"Was there something familiar about that man, Pat?" Dave asked bluntly. "I don't know. It was his voice, the Way he said 'Out of my way, you.' " She paused, then went on: "Dave, if I ever meet that man, I'll know." "Let's hope you never do," he said fervently. "Oh. not that I don't want to catch him, Pat,-but to have you in danger . . ."
