CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN Mom waa worried. “But aren’t you going bark to Hollywood?" Tom and Jack exchanged quick glances. “I’ll tell you about that later, Mom; but don’t you worry. And I’ll be back for Christmas and mavbe stay awhile. How’s that? Okay?" “Anything you say. Tom.” They went inside. “How’s everybody?’’ Tom asked. “They’re all just fine; we didn’t expect you in until later and they thought they’d see you at supper. Now let’s see. We've got a chicken in the oven but it isn’t ready; how about some ham and eggs and coffee and fried potatoes?” “Lady,” answered Jack Devere, “you talk like an angel from heaven, you do." Cousin Emmy almost screamed; she doubled half over, she was laughing so hard. “You said it just like that *in that Western—what was it now? Oh yes—‘The Rocky Road to Gallup’.” “Come on, Emmy," Mom said. She could see Tommy didn’t like the way Cousin Emmy was carrying on but Jack Devere didn’t seem to mind. He seemed real nice. Mom was sorry Pop and Pete weren't there; she thought they'd like him real well. Cousin Emmy had to drag herself out to the kitchen. “Ain’t he a card?” she asked Mom. Uncle Louie came in. He was pretending he didn’t see the boys and had his head down and was going right up the steps and to his room. Mom wished he would but Cousin Emmy called: “Hey, Louie —don’t you see Tommy and Jack Devere?” Uncle Louie turned pretty quick, Mom thought, and shook hands with Tommy without smiling and then turned to Jack Devere and said: “I suppose you’re one of them movie actors?” Cousin Emmy was astounded. “Don’t tell me you don’t recognize Jack Devere?” “Never heard of him.” Jack Devere winked at Tom, who was getting mad and so was Mom at the idea of the old good-for-nothing being so uncivil; but Jack said: “I’ve heard of you, though You're the postmaster, aren’t you?” Uncle Louie didn’t say he was but he didn’t say he wasn’t. “Whose automobile is that?” “Mine,” said Jack Devere. “I’d think you could find something else to do with your money with so many people starving,” Uncle Louie said. Then he turned and put his bead down and went upstairs. Tom was looking after him and his face was getting red and his jaw tight. Mom hurried in and said to Jack Devere; “Don’t pay any attention to him—he has stomach trouble.” Jack Devere patted her arm. “Don’t you worry about me, now, Mofn. I’ve got a grandpa just like him.” “He’s an old crab,” Cousin Emmy yelled up the stairs. Uncle Louie slammed his door. Mom went back to the stove. The doorbell rang and Cousin Emmy ran to open it. Mom could have fallen down flat when she heard Florrie Johnson’s voice: “Mom sent me ovei with this jar of preserves,” she said. Mom didn’t know just what to do. The idea of a tiling like Florrie Johnson, who could smell a man a mile off, having the gaii to try to come in where she knew she wasn't welcome. Mom started for the door, afraid Cousin Emmy was going to ask Florrie in—why wasn’t she

working, anyhow? Probably got good and sick with too much to drink last night. As Mom went to the door she saw Tommy shaking his head and frowning and putting both thumbs down and she was thankful he had that much sense. So Mom put on a nice face and got in front of Cousin Emmy who knew how Mom felt about Florrie and the likes of her, but didn’t know just what to do. “Thanks. Florrie," she said, “go back and tell ycur mother it was real nice of her. Tommy is resting now.” Florrie was trying to edge in, the bold thing, but Mom was too cute for her. She lowered her voice to a whisper: “I don’t want to wake him up.” Florrie whispered, toe: "Who was it come with him. Mis’ Randolph?” Cousin Emmy couldn’t stay still any longer and she whispered, too —it was funny to hear Cousin Emmy whisper: "It’s Jack Devere--and if he isn’t * scream;" Mom had to practically shut the door in Florries face, bur when she finally got it closed she looked out through the curtains and saw every door along the street was open, including Florrie’s mother's. Maybe that would let them all know that they weren’t going to come sneaking over on an excuse like that-and she bet it would be a long time before Florrie Johnson ever tried to put her foot inside that door again. Florrie stood outside examining the car. Tommy said to Mom, “Nice going. Mom." Jack Devere was smiling. Well, Florrie Johnson wasn't going to get her hands on these two. Mom went back to the kitchen. Florrie was still parading along the sidewalk trying to look in the window. Then, almost before Mom knew it, the boys were leaving. ’‘Watch me drive this boat down the main drag,” Tommy told his mother, “I’ve alw’ays wanted to come back here with a car like this.” He went off, roaring and waving. Always coming and going

poem. "The Raven," and many stories, including "The Gold Hug." Many original manuscripts, pieces . from collection* ot Poe's works ' now are oil display in the restor j ed, three-story cottage. The building was purchased by (Richard Gimbel. who employed an i architect to refurnish it as it appeared at the time Poe lived here ’ with liis wife. Virginia, and Ills i mother-in-law and aunt from 1838 to 1844. Ineluded among the original arI tides are a stove, a desk and bedroom furniture. A bust of Pallas has been placed in the study in which Poe worked.

No sooner had they gone than Mrs. Flannigan came over. “He didn’t stay very long," she said. She was after information. “He’s coming back,” Mom said, “they’re on their way to a big fobtball game. They wanted to stay but it would have made them late so I made them go. ’ “Ah-hah,” Mrs. Flannigan said, her voice like brown molasses, “that was some car he was driving, too.” “Yes,” said Mom. If she wanted to think it was Tommy’s, let her. But Mrs. Flannigan wanted to know. “Is it bis’n?” "He was drivin’ it,” Mom said, “but I never thought to ask. I don’t believe in nibbling even into my own son’s business.” "Ah-hah." Mrs. Flannigan agreed “And the nerve of that Florrie Johnson!” “Hmm!” Morn said. “Why wasn’t she workin’ today?” "I wondered too," Mrs. Flannigan said "I was over there today and she didn’t get up till one o’clock and if she didn’t look like she was run through a wringer. But the minute she heard Tommy was here she spruced up and got all dressed up like a fire truck. I talked to Myrt on the phone and she said there was a big dance last night so I suppose ” “Hmm!” Mom didn’t say anymore. She didn’t believe in gossip. Mrs. Flannigan guessed she’d go but she asked one more question: “How’s it come Tommy’s home now. Mfs' Randolph? Ain’t he going to movie-act any more?” “I didn’t ask him that., either,” Mom said, a bit crisply, “but I guess even a movie actor clj get time off for a visit.” “Uh-huh!” Mrs. Flannigan guessed she'd be going again and this time she went She went straight over to Mrs. Farrell’s; and no sooner had she gone in than Mrs. Johnson went out of her door and over, too. Mrs. Johnson was miffed about Florrie. Well, Mom hoped they had a good time. (To Be Continued) Copyright, 1932, by Francis Wallace Distributed by King Features Syndicate, fno-

WAR EXPERIENCE' LEO TO TEAR GAS LOCKS Veteran Developed Idea After 18 Months In Hospital Philadelphia. Oct. — (U.R) — James J. Walsh's experience ot being gassed in the World War prompted him to consider the prac-l tica! uses of tear gas tn civil life 1 and resulted in the invention of a gas bomb protector for safes and other depositories While spending 18 months in a hospital after his war experience, Walsh evolved a plan for connecting a tear gas tube with the lock of a sate as additional protection. He obtained a position with a safe manufacturing company in order to acquaint himself with sate locks. “It took me eight years to perfect my system ot incorporating the gas cartridge in the lock," he said. "But in 1929 1 received my patent. “None of the persons for whom tear gas has lieen installed has had a robbery. There was one instance in this city of a large manufacturing company which had been having frequent robberies I installed a tear gas system. Within a short time another entry was attempted. The two intruders were overcome and were found in the morning stretched on the floor. It took them two days to recover. "Despite the fact that the chlorine I use leaves no harmful effects, a warning sign is posted outside on all property where it is used, aside from the sign over the lock on the safe. “The gas release is fool proof Two-thirds of it comes outside, but one-third remains within the safe, 'making it impossible to break the lock and then come back later hoping the air will be cleared. The concentrated gas within the safe will lie just as effective when a second attempt to open the safe door is made." o Former War Nurse Heads Wisconsin Legion Post Horicon. Wis.—(U.R) Members of the American Legion. Horicon Post, are numbered among the few headed by a woman commander. Miss Caroline Banghart, former war nurse and a Legion member for many years, is the new commander.
