■ much of James R. Farley. He man I aged the Roosevelt campaign and | as a reward was named national chairman of the party. He is a gogetter, who does things, acts quickly, keeps his feet on the ground and seems in every way callable of i making a record. It should be rej membered however— whether it is !or not- that the present splendid [condition of the party to enter the I campaign is due to Raskob, Shouse and Mickelson and due credit ] should be given those men, if victory come to the party in November. Home from the convention ami a thousand thrills. It was a great meeting with all the leaders of . democracy on hands and entertainment to suit your tastes whatever they are.

The Importance and Value of the Citizens' Military Training Camp By W. N. DOAK, United States Secretary of Labor.

The basic, and to me, irrefut-. able argument in behalf of the value of the citizens' military training camp is that it prepares' at least a part of the youth of ouri country for the task of defending. that country from assault from] without. t I have literally no patience withi those who argue that preparation! foi defense makes for war. The merchant, the landowner, or who-. ever you will, who has reaped the! benefit of his own labor would be J criminally foolish not to take some means to protect, in case of' | necessity, that which he honestly I lias ac quired. There is another side to this ■ matter of providing military I training for the young citizens of Hits country. It has been proved, beyond cavil that military training in the schools makes not only for physical, but for moral integI rity. The first lesson in military | training is honor. The value to I the youth of outdoor life hardly] can be estimated. It makes for, physical vigor and for that kind'

of enjoyment which can not be | found within the confines of a i city's walls. These military training camps for the citizens of this country . teach not only discipline of body. Hut discipline of mind. In the I camps are inculcated lessons of love of country, regard for fellow--1 man and a respect for the rights (of all people. They are military, but not at all militaristic. The lesson is defense and not offense. Records of these training camps have proven their worth. They ' should be continued as an asset not only to the youth of the couni try, but to the country itself. ' Paraphrasing, one might say that a sound Americanism loves the military camps for the enemies they have made. Many of the opponents of the citizens military training camps are of disruptive i tendencies. In their sight, noth- ' ing that is is good, and therefore, nothing that is is worth defending.

SYNOPSIS Following the receipt of a death threat, Lola Carew e. known as “The Night Club Lady”, is mysteriously , slain in her penthouse apartment at 3 a. m. New Year’s. Dr. Hugh Bald- ; win reports death due to heart failore. The only clue to the murderer is a medical laboratory specimen box found outside Lola’s window. Police Commissioner Thatcher Colt attaches importance to the young man whose photograph is found in Lola’s room, and whose identity Ixda had refused to reveal beyond his first name, “Basil”. At the mention of “Basil", Mrs. Carewe, Lola’s mother, becomes hysterical. It is known that Lola quarreled with Guy Everett and Vincent Rowland, a lawyer, over investments. Eunice, the maid, confesses she was employed by Everett to report the goings on in the apart- ( ment. The mystery deepens with the finding of the body of Christine Quires, Lola's gnest. Christine had been killed before Lola and her body * | hidden until an opportune moment arrived for the murderer to place it, , saaking wet, in Lola's room. The I findings are similar to those in Lola's ease except that Christine's neck was bruised after death. Everett, , Christine's last escort, claims he left her at the apartment elevator at midnight New Year's Eve, and then I ' went for a ride on the Motor Parkway. alone, arriving home after 3 i a. m. Mrs. Carewe informs Colt that Christine lived with a brother, Edgar, in Rochester, and was to re- . , ceive her inheritance shortly. Lola's j room is vacuum cleaned and the dust I I particles sent to Professor Luckj ner for analysis. Colt sends to the medical examiner a hypodermic z i syringe taken from Baldwin's bag and a strap for analysis, also a strand of Christine's hair found near ( Lola's window. The Commissioner orders Basil's pieture telephotoed to M. Dupont, head of the Paris Police. CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE WW 7TTHIN half an hour after t W reachin « Headquarters 1 had performed my several and diversified errands. The hypodermic syringe was in the hands of a department chemist, yanked from between warm sheets and called to the cold glare of the Center Street labot ratory. To him was also entrusted the buckled strap which Colt had found and to which he attributed such enigmatie importance. Finally, I had turned the photograph over to Gavin, the telegraph manager. When the grizzled old operator heard what was wanted, he looked at me with a skeptical squint. “Telephoto —to Paris’” he repeated in a nasal tone, full of comj plaint. “And with the government | tying up the wires trying to argue with the French about money?” He leaned forward and grabbing ■ my shoulder, fixed me with an eye ! as glittering as the Ancient Ma--1 tuner's. 1 “So the Commissioner wants me to send that photo to Paris ch? Does he know what that mt'ans’ , Os course he does not! You tell 1 him for me that to wire this picture to Paris it has to be specially prepared -chemically. Neve ; thought of that, eh?

On my desk at Headquarters I found several messages from my home. I looked at my watch. It was deep in the morning now; I wondered if Betty had fallen asleep. Poor kid! Police work is exciting, but not for wives. I decided it was better not to risk waking her. My tasks at Headquarters were done and I returned uptown in a department car. In quick time I arrived at the gray-stone house with the green trim on West Seventieth Street that used to be called “Little Headquarters” because Thatcher Colt transacted so much official business in his own home. Arthur, Colt’s dusky Jamaican butler, greeted me with an ivory smile and led me to the vast library occupying the third floor of the house. There, in easy-chairs before the fire, I found the chief and the District Attorney. Beside them were whiskeys and sodas and a third chair was drawn up for me, with a tail drink, waiting and undefiled. A bright fire of logs crackled and sparkled in the open grate. On Thatcher Colt's shoulder crouched a Siamese cat with blue eyes and blue-pointed ears—Judas was his name because once he had scratched his master. Now they were great friends. When I entered the room, Colt was talking on the portable telephone beside his chair to the Rochester police chief. Their conversation was brief. “Tony,” the chief divulged as he hung up the receiver, “the brother of Chnstine Quires received a telegram from New York early yesterday afternoon. The Western Union wont disclose its contents without find Urt F° r t er ' However - 1 expect to h”! * hat Was in the message, Fdw a ra e n Same - Kut we do Edward Quires and his wife left at once for New York - around ten oclock last night.
