She employs DOTTIE CARR, a fashion model, as her secretary-companion and they set out for South America, *here Barry and STEVE BACCARELLI an partner* In a diamond mine, u Mona s brother, BUD, works at the mine.

The. young men are cordial, but their greeting lacks warmth Mona wishes she had nos come Barry does not ask for explanations and she can not make them NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER FORTY-ONE THE maid had brought Mona and Lottie up the uncarpeted •stairs into the wide halls above. From the landing hung a huge window of shutters which, open now and made fast by means of a rope, looked out on a riot of blossoming hibiscus. Intense greens were dotted with crimson, pink and yellow. A soft breeze stirred the trees, sending in showers of perfume. The rooms on the second floor were high, and above the doors, were latticed to the ceiling. At, either side of each door were shutters spaced to Jet in air. The effect was one of marvelous coolDPSS. “You ran't tell secrets here!” Lottie remarked, eyeing this arrangement. •‘Heavens, a whispei would be all over the house. I hope nobody uses an alarm clock!" From t he windows of the bedroom they could glimpse the sea. It lay shimmering like a. softly swaying bit of blue satin rimmed with silver. , A necklace of palms fringed the beach and a white boat swung with the lazy tide. The room-contained few pieces of furniture. A huge bed draped with netting stood in the center of the farther wall. There was a dresser, two easy chairs of rattan and a table. Mona noted with satisfaction that the room was lighted with electricity and that the bed had a reading lamp ptt,ached to its head. 'But there's no bath!” Lottie cried, pointing to a wash stand. Josie had hung towels about and disappeared with two huge pitchers. Lottie's room, connecting by door nd by outer balcony, was similar to Mona's. A know on the door announced the arrival of the baggage and Florence entered, dragging suitcases and hat boxes after her. The boys, she explained, had brought it to the door, but it seemed best not to allow them to disturb Madame. * Josie appeared almost immediately carrying pitchers of hot water. Mona and Lottie bathed, opening suitcases in search of pajamas, and flnaly crept beneath the netting for a rest. They were asleep instantly. a a a QEVERAL hours later Mona awoke w suddenly. Lottie,' a veritable sea nymph in green, was bending over her. ‘ I've been out to bathe—not in the sea, just the pool,” Lottie announced. "Josie told me about it. "The boys have a sort of sunken bath behind the house. It's as large as a baby swimming pool, with showers rigged up and everything. It’s great!” Half an hour later, wearing cool chiffon and dainty shoes, Mona descended the stairs. Lottie had reached the terrace just before her and sat at a small table, the silver service in front of her quizzing the boys about their tea. Josie, the maid, arrived with tinkling ice. Mona supposed that this must have been brought from a distant port at great expense until Lottie explained that the kitchen was outfitted with an electric refrigerator. She had made a second tour of Investigation and was prepared to answer questions. Barry and Steve, in fresh linens hnd sleek of hair, rose as Mona approached. It was cool on the ter-

race. The glare of the sunlight was softened and a gentle breeze played. "Tea, Mona," Lottie inquired. She was perfectly at home here. “Hot or cold?” "Cold,” Mona decided. “I dont see how any one can drink hot tea here." observed Lottie. "There is lemon or lime. Which do you prefer?” "Let me arrange her place, Lottie,” Barry said. He put down a plate of tiny cakes and took possession of the tea table. “I know what Mona likes." a m a IT was a small courtesy, yet It made Mona's heart leap as she watched. Tffie long months seemed suddenly to have faded. She never had—really—been married to Barry’s uncle. Here they were—she and Lottie, Barry and Steve-*on an outing just as they had been so often before. Things would be all right, she was sure. Barry would forgive her for everything. Some time very soon she could explain all that had happened. Now she would relax and enjoy herself. Her dream was broken abruptly. Barry held the tumbler decked with mint out to the maid and, indicating Mona said, "Give this to Mrs. Townsend." Mrs. Townsend! He might have said nothing, leaving it to the maid’s

THEY TELL ME if*i

HERE'S something for the pro- j fessional politicians to worry about and strive to answer. " Because of the political activities of officials of various banks, some ! are known as "Republican” and j others as "Democratic” institutions, although no attempt is made to influence the vote of either patrons or employes. Saturday the ol’ doctor dropped intb such an institution known as "Republican,” to deposit the weekly insult, and while there one of the tellers hailed me with a chuckle and said, "Look at this.” "This” was the result of an informal poll taken of employes of the institution. It showed seven votes for Franklin D. Roosevelt and five for Norman Thomas. Not one vote out of the twelve was cast for Herbert Hoover. "How CQme such a result?” was asked. a a a Here in a bank, considered, because of the very nature of business transacted, a stronghold of Republican conservatism, the Democratic nominee gets seven votes, the SOCIALIST nominee gets five votes, and the Republican President none. It is a trifle bewildering, but here is .what was given as the answer, by one of the tellers: "Hoover has had four years in office. Two and one-half years have been devoted by him to coping with the economic debacle. Yet he has achieved no success. "Roosevelt appears to be energetic and able and the Democrats should get a chance to show what they can do while the Norman Thomas vote is an indication of the intense dissatisfaction with both the old major parties,” he explained. "Because we work in a bank, we come in contact with all sorts of persons, widows, orphans, salaried men and women; those who once held jobs and now are unemployed, small and large business men and others and we talk to all of them. a a a “They frankly confess they can see no great hope in either of the major parties, and as we discuss the situation among ourselves many of us have come to the same conclusion. "Thomas appeals to our intelligence and we now are old enough not to be frightened by label of ‘Socialist,’ so that seems to be the answer.” That’s what he said. But the fact that there was not one vote cast for Hoover is startling. Republican leaders have been

deduction whom the glass was intended for, or he might have handed her the glass himself. Mrs. Townsend! That name which might have been so sweet was a reproach. They heard a pounding on the carpeted stairs, a sudden clatter on the veranda, and Bud, freshly dressed and glowing after his recent swim, Joined them. “Tea?” Lottie asked. “Did you have a good swim, Bud?” "No tea, thanks. Yes, I had a fine swim.” To Barry he said, "I'm going down to the plane. Is that o. k. " Barry nodded and Bud flung himself into the rickety automobile and started off. He called back. "Bobby Jones won’t like you if we keep landing on the fairway, Barry! How’s the airport -coming?'’ “Not very well. Maybe I’ll get you to handle it,” Barry answered amiably. "Any time you say,” called Bud. “He drives well, doesn’t he?” said Mona, w'atching him careen out through the gate on a single wheel and disappear in a tunnel of green trees beyond. “He does everything well," Barry replied. “It was a great idea to send him down here.

hoping that Thomas would make a real campaign, because they feel that he would draw the vote of the unemployed and disaffected who ordinarily would favor Roosevelt. But it is a different story when ■white collar men, who are employed, turn toward a third party. It apparently indicates that the great middle class, to whom the name "Socialist” has been flaunted as a bugaboo, is beginning to think.

7T6QDK A DAY BY BRUC6 CATTON HORACE TRUNDELL. president of the Federated Utilities, specialized in feeding bunk to the public. In fact, since he had almost no brains, that was why he had his job. He was a fine orator, and when he told people that only Reds were afraid of the power trust and that utility stock prices were bound to keep on going higher, forever and ever, they all believed him. And the only trouble was that he finally got so that he believed it himself, and when 1929 knocked the bottom out of everything he fell into the soup along with the suckers. Horace Trunell is the central figure in "There Is a Tide,” by Percival Wilde; a novel which is about as bitter a satire of American business as you easily will find. The portrait of this utilities magnate is drawn sharply. By accident and by dint, of a flair for oratory, the man rises to the summit, although he has neither intelligence, humor nor a likable personality. He gropes blindly through the boom years and stumbles into the depression without ever knowing just what is happening; and the general effect of the novel is that of a picture of a time in which the world as a whole went nuts. Frenzied finance, the Florida boom and the absurdities of an economic system without a balance wheel arc the chief targets of this book. Asa novel it is silghtly diffuse and rambling; but I think you’ll find it worth reading. "There Is a Tide” is published by Harcourt, Brace & Cos., at $2.

“What is that, Zuanthrol?” whispered Talaskar, pointing to a crouching figure close to the wall. The ape-man stepped quickly forward, his candle held high in his left hand, hi3 right upon his sword. He laid his hand upon the figure and it fell into a heap of dust.

the turning point. He was all set to amount to something—either something pretty fine or just the opposite." m m m MONA nodded in agreement. “It was awfully good of you.” she said softly. "I don’t believe I’ve ever thanked you ” “Oh, we’ve had our thanks all right." Bud himself, looking as he does today, is thanks enough." There was coolness in Barry's tone and Mona felt it. She was silent for some time. Then after a little she said, “Does he handle any of the selling for you?" Barry nodded again. “He does and he's clever at it, too. There’s a man named Horton ”

“It WAS a man,” said Tarzan, “but it has been dead many years. It was chained to this wall.” “There are several of them,” said KomodoflorensaL “They tell us that this corridor connec ed with the quarters of a very powerful Veltorlsmakuatan.”

How could Barry know about that? Had he seen Bud? Then she understood that of course he had while she was sleeping. “There’s & man named iHorton who’s a tough customer. He gave us a good price for uncut diamonds because Bud ” “Why don't you let Bud tell her that, boy?” suggested Steve casually. He turned to Mona. “Barry is always bragging- about Bud. I tell him the boy’s head will be turned.” The scent of the honeysuckle came nearer and nearer. They could hear the sea spilling and crashing along the beach. Lottie, rising, beckoned Steve to join her at the edge of the terrace. Mona was alone with Barry at last. What was he going to say?

How would he begin? With reproaches? With a demand for explanations? Instead, Barry.'too, rose from his chair. “Don’t take Lottie away,” he called. "I promised the girls we’d take them for a drive. We ought to be starting, or it will be too late. The roadster is in order, isn’t it?” “Never better!” Steve agreed. Cupping his hands together and raising them to his mouth, he shouted. "Oh. boy! Bring around the roadster!” (To Be Continued) Autogiro Prices Reduced PHILADELPHIA, Sept. s.—The Kellett Autogiro Corporation of Philadelphia has reduced the price of its new r two-seater autogiro cabin plane, officials said.

FUNDS SOUGHT FOR RUNAWAYS Jobless Fathers Seeking to Finance Return. Two unemployed fathers were endeavoring today to find some method to financing the return of their 16-year-old runaway daughters to their homes here. The girls are May John/auno. daughter of Andy Johnfauno, 1422 Deloss street, and Vernell Hack.

daughter of Harrison Hack, 254 South Summit street. They left home Aug 25, and are believed to have intended to go to to the home of a sister of Johndauno, who lives in Clear Summit, Pa. They were arrested Aug. 28 in Philadelphia. Johnfauno says he was advised of the arrest by local police, who gave no details. According to the fathers, police and juvenile court authorities have stated they are unable to pay for transportation of the girls to this city. The snake known as the blue racer is merely a local name for one variety of the black snake.
