Newspaper Page Textj DEATH WRITES TIE LAST EDITION By Adeline McElfresh Q UNEXPECTED CONTESTANT CHAPTKH X TVTIDVALE, by the time Sam Dlnlr drove hl cruising enr , down Mnln street to tho pollco station, hod settled llnnlf for mi ' other nltornoon that might bring forth anything, Tho pollco chief parked tho car and wont insldo to Unci Dnvo Elson lounging nt his desk, pulling enn tontodly at ii clgnr that Illulr knew had coma from tho box In lili filing cabinet. "Elson," ho said, grufTncss fall ing to hlda entirely tho humor In his voice, "I linpo none of tho boy inw you liook thnt smoke. They think 1 una tho ones on the . desk." Unvo grinned, "Do they7" ho remarked, and Blair braced himself, knowing from tho old days thnt when Davo Elion gavo you that cunning tone omathlng good wai coming, Dnvo Jet him havo both barrels, "Not Jf they havo any senso ot smell," Tie flashed, "One whiff of that ' rope" Ho held hl nmo sug gestively. "All right, nil right." the chief admitted hit defeat with a good natured grunt, "Juit don't let It get around," "If you'd llko your chair" "I would provided you find tho energy to tnko your feet oir the desk." lie druped nil coat care fully over chair and took olT hla hat before he turned around. Finally he sighed, almost lnaud tbly, "No luck again, Dave. Unless- "Unleu what?" Dave.waa all an, "Did you ever hear of Oeorga Rand?" The blunt question nuzzled Duve for a moment, then he iihook hli head. He never had heard of the man. "Me, too," Dltilr nld caustically, and went on to relate what had Oappened thnt morning. 'THE Express oftke wa strangely quiet whon Dovo KUon en tered. Something was wrong. Ho ensed that almost before the door closed behind him, and one glance ' at Elinor Roberta proved It. The alrl's blue eyes were wide and slightly stunned. "Whot'a up, kid?" Dnvo poused besldo her desk. "Somebody else get rubbed out?" She shook her heod numbly. : "Mr. Parkor didn't leave a will," lEllnor finally whispered, nodding Itoward the nown room, "andmow isomo relatlvo a nlcco or some thing Is here. She tnys she's going to sell the Express." "Sell the Express!" Dave whis jtled his astonishment "She can't I do thatl Why, I didn't even know I Parker hod any relotlves." "He most certainly did, Mr. -Jlson." Q DaveVhlrled on his heel as the cold voice tent a warning tingle 'up hit spine. The woman she wat In her Hate thirties looked him over iwlth cool IndlfTrrenco for a long moment and Dave taw In her j glance that hard-as-nalls quality I he had detected In her vole. "How do you do?" the said I archly. "1 am Myra Rose, of New jYork and Miami." j "New York, eh? I've been there for a few year! myself, Miss I Rote." "Mr. Rosa, Mr. Bison," she eor- retted hlrn. "My husband It a 'lawyer." "And Just how are you related to Mr. Parker?" "I am his niece," Mrs. Rose an lowered evenly. "My mother wat I his litter. She hot been dead for many years and I havo never lastociateri with, Uncle Joe, but there'! nothing to keep me from lhaving hit estato now. I'm hli 'only Uvlng relative," a "You're very ture of that, Mn. t ote." Dav could not keep the Ibltternett from hit tone. "Aren't you?" "Indeed. I told you my hus 'band is a lawyer." rjAVE'S anger blinded him to everything but the haughty face In front of him. He dldnt know that Clem and, Mary Evans were standing In the news room door or that Rod Thomat, the advertising managar, was right behind him. "I lee," ha .grated through clenched teeth, and his listeners stiffened In anticipation' of the blast they knew wai coming. But Mr. Rosa Just stood there, calm and serene and queenly, confident FUNNY TV ll.tl,ftM.TMalmV "I couldn't ct shower equipment when we built, on no CorVRIQMT, 1Q4S. ! NKA SVIC, INC. bint sho had won her point, "Mrs.' Rose," Dave finally sold, "you huvo no Idea how much this paper meant to Joe For your uncle. It win his life. Ho died for It. A letter we found proves Hint, for it threatened him if he ran a certain story. Wo have not been nblo to find out what thnt ntory wns, but when w do we'll have his murderer. And, Mrs. Hose, a man who gives his lifo for an idcnl is a hero." i Dove drew n deep breath, He felt somo of the angor oozing from ; him. Somehow, Junt tnlklng about his old boss helped him a lot, so much that ho wus unprepured for the sharp thrutt from Mn. Roto. EMBROIDER FOR FUNI 7232 by Alice Brook ' Thnro'i a laugh In every stitch!

HOLD EVERYTHING! 8-18 "I hear that you brought j woman aboard!" BUSINESS it "All of which means nothing." There was scorn In her gray eyos and hatred In the hard curve of her Hps. "I'm selling the estato just as soon as proper arrango monts can be made." An Icy wind might have caused tho chill that awopt over Dnvo Elson, but It could not have been mora penetrating or so thoroughly cutting. There was a flutter In the pit of his atomach that faded Into a sick, empty feeling. Ho had no doubt thnt the woman was not within her rights, a court would prove that before anything wns done, but ... "Well. Mr. Klson?" Dave shrugged. He met her challenging eyos without flinching. "I'll buy the Express," he told her, "and the house." To himself he added; "For Pat, If she'll still have me."
