Dale was watch ing the two closely. Suddenly the door opened and one of the dis trict attorney's assistants entered with a packet of papers. He went directly to Sands. "Found these in a Becret safe in the library, sir. One of the papers seems to be , the will making the bequests that Mr. Wayne started to explain." Wilfred Sands looked hurriedly He remained near the door with through the documents. He was lower hallway, directly outside the living room. It was a woman a voice, raised in a tone of frenzy. "Robert! Robert!" The three hurried through the door. Standing at the foot of the stairs, a look of terror upon her features, was a young woman whom Dale guessed immediately was Miss Gloria. She was looking upstairs Imt turned as the three men entered the hall. Fear had put it tragic touch upon her. An involuntarily sob escaped her as she stepped inearer to Wilfred Sands, as though instict told her that he was there to protect her. There was a paper gripped in her hand. She held it out to Sands and Dale saw that her hand was shaking violently. Sands took the paper, spoke a comforting word in a low tone, and Scrap Leader J t L -Esd V Rationing Board Grants Forty Applications Forty persons received favorable action on their applications to the local rationing board . during the past week, according to the clerk of the board.

Mb SUaT It was IUU DaWa Jardin, half in the shadows. He listened intently as Sands spoke. "I'm sorry, Dr. Bailey, but it is our duty to question everyone in the house. As you know, I've tried to be as brief as possible with Miss Sheen." "And driven her almost into hysterics!" Dr. Bailey had his arm comfortingly about Miss Sheen, who sat with lowered head sobbing softly. "Why don't you police look for a motive instead of try ing to browbeat a woman who couldn't possibly have had any mo tive to kill Silas Wayne?" "Speaking of motive, Dr. Bailey," said Sands sharply, "one of the witnesses said that you and Mr. Wayne had a violent quarrel during the afternoon. Can you tell me what it was about?" "I can. He insisted upon me leaving the house and I refused. He became quite violent ana threatened me." "But it was his house." "And the two ladies were my patients!" There was something brazen about the way Dr. Bailey stood his PT-nund. an authoritative manner by which one sensed that he felt justified in every action he tooK and had no fear of the conse quences. "I believe that will be all for the present." Sands addressed both of his witnesses. Dr. Bailey neipeu Miss Sheen to her feet and kept soon intensely engrossed and read more slowly as he went on. Finally he looked up and spoke to Captain Blake. "Plenty of motives here, Blake. I believe it's the strangst docu ment I've ever read. It's unsigned and I believe he had intended to sign it before his heirs. I want everyone in the library at once." While the order was being car ried out Wilfred Sands stopped by Dale. "This should make a sensation al story for the papers, Dale." Sands had taken out a package of cigarettes. Dale helped himself to one, causing Jardin anotner grimace of disgust. . "Sounds interesting, chief," said Dale as he lit his cigarette. "Any idea who did it?" "I had none, frankly, before I read that will. Now I have too many. Jardin explain the cir cumstances to you? What do you think?" "I'd rather have a look at all the suspects first, and hear what's in that will. I'll make a bet the secret is right in there!"

WANTEB) At Once HULLED BLACK WALNUTS Sell Now While Prices Are High. Farmers Exchange C. D. KETNER, Owaer AKZl NO JAP OR NAZI HAS ANYTHING LIKE IT I Thh-i-a road map of electric power. It shows how high-voltage electric lines crisscross the country carrying power to busy war plants and to 27 million homes. HERE is the greatest electric transmission yitem in the world. No other nation hu anything like it. The famous British "grid system" could be dropped into one small section of it. It carries more power than all die Axis countries combined. This nation-wide network was put to gether in peacetime to serve you and other Americans. Almost til of it was built on the savings of the same people it serves by the business managements of America's 400 electric companies. Did you ever wonder why American industrieslike die electric industry lead the world? There's a good reason because it one of the things we're fighting for. ' The reason Is the freedom of the individual lite right of every American to work when and where he wants, with in reason to enter any business or pro fession to create and' produce and to benefit by his own success. That's a pow erful incentive. Under the Jap and German systems of political management and state slav ery, the Individual counts for nothing. Only bureaucrats and political favorite have anything to hope for. In the long tun, that won't win wars. Here in America,. 133 million people have personal stake in Victory and in preserving the system of American business management under public regulation that has helped so much to make us die strongest nation on earth. .',!
