CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX “npiIOSE papers,” Woodford falX tered. "If--if I tell you about Nesbitt will you that I get them back?” “Yes,” Kemp answered. "And if you don’t I’ll see they go to the prosecuting attorney.” Woodford sat down weakly in the hall chair. Perspiration lay damply in the folds of his face. “It wasn’t that I wanted to shield a murder. But I tried to keep it quiet on account of—of Nesbitt's parents, and —and certain business connections he had.” "I don't care about that,” said Kemp quickly. "I want to hear what you know about his death.” Woodford raised his eyes to meet the grim, determined face of Kemp. ‘‘lt was . . . Mrs. Joseph.” he said at last. “She was insanely in love with him, and she knew he planned to mary Cintra Lee.” “Where is she now? Do you know?” Woodford nodded. “She's at the Brookfield under the name of Leah Sorenson.” Kemp waited to hear no more. Slipping one arm around Julia's waist, he hurried her from the apartment and down to his car at the curb. Julia saw that he was trembling violently. She too was weak from those few moments in Woodford's hallway. “W-when were you in Woodford's office?” she asked, as Kemp shoved the car into gear. “I wasn't, It was pure bluff—but it worked. I’ve always suspected Woodford of those cases I mentioned, and of a lot more, too.” “Why?”

Today’s Recipe Mushroom Timbales One and one-half cups chopped mushrooms, 2 tablespoons butter, Va cup stale bread crumbs, 1 cup milk, teaspoon salt, 2 eggs. Melt butter and add mushrooms. Cook five minutes. Add milk and bread crumbs and cook five minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper and add yolks of eggs well beaten. Remove from fire and fold in whites of eggs beaten until stiff. Fill buttered molds two-thirds full and place in a pan of hot water. Cover with buttered paper and bake 25 minutes in a moderately hot oven (375 degrees F.) Unmold on a hot serving dish and serve.

BECAUSE ordinary fees wouldn't account for the fabulous sums he's always spent.” He brought the car to a careening stop before a drug store. “I'll be right back,” he told Julia, and ran inside the store. Through the wide doors she saw him go into the telephone booth and guessed that he was sending the police to Mrs. Joseph’s apartment. “I thought it wouldn’t hurt to have the police in on this,” he told Julia, resuming his place behind the wheel. “We'll go ahead—there isn't a moment to lose. Woodford may have already telephoned her that we're coming. If we don't find her —and Woodford gets to his office and discovers I was bluffing—we're lost.” Kemp’s car literally hurtled through the tiaffie, ignoring stop lights and missing disaster by inches jin almost every block. “Os course no police would stop us," Peter said through clenched teeth, “when we could use them!” Julia held to the seat with both hands, too frightened to say anything. She was relieved when she saw, a few blocks up the avenue, the tall lighted sign which marked the Brookfield. Whether or not Peter saw it, his | foot did not release its pressure on ! the accelerator. They were almost abreast of the place before he jammed on the brakes. “Peter! ...” With Julia's involuntary scream the car skidded in a vicious halfcircle, came to a sickening stop against another car parked in front of the Brookfield. “Are you hurt, Julia?” She shook her head vaguely. “J-just scared, I think.” 000 COME on, then!” He was already out of the car, oblivious of the quickly gathering crowd and the shout of the doorman in front of the Brookfield. Into the lobby they both ran, and Peter had hardly reached the desk when he cried out to the startled clerk: “What's the number of Leah Sorenson’s room?” There was the slightest hesitation on the clerk's face, and Peter added. "I’m from police headquarters. What is it?” “It—it's 576.” Sensing excitement, the elevator; boy was ready and eager, lifting them to the fifth floor at top speed, then pointing to a door almost di- I rectly in front of the elevator's enrance. Kemp knocked loudly. There was no answer—and he tried the door.* It swung open easily to his touch, revealing a room which .ooked as J It had been visited by a hurricane. The drawers of the bureau were open and askew. A woman’s cloth-

ing was scattered over the bed and floor. Julia's heart sank as she heard Peter say, “We’re too late!” From the street below came the whine of a police car signal. “Come on,” Peter said. “You can give th,em a description of her and they can try the railroad stations and the airport—but I'm afraid we’re sunk, Julia.” “But Woodford can tell the police what he told us.” Peter shook his head. “He can—but he won’t. You can bet he went to his office right away to see just what I'd found out. By now he knows I’ve found out nothing at all about him.” (To Be Continued) JUNIOR.

LOCATE HIGH CARDS

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY WM. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League AS I told you a few days ago, there are millions of different combinations of cards. Therefore, I suppose it is a little hard at times to try to figure out the proper play. In the majority of hands, however, you can develop a line of play with just a little reasoning. The fun in bridge is not just bidding three no trump and then cashing nine cold tricks, but trying to locate certain high cards and then using those outstanding high cards to your advantage. Just because/the opponents hold certain high cards does not mean that those cards are all going to take tricks. Proper manipulation often will gain you a trick every time you lose one. Let us follow the play of today's hand and see how declarer manipulated it to make three no trump. To start, he got a very favorable opening, the jack of hearts. This was won with the ace. Declarer. played a small spade

and West, for reasons of his own, jumped up with the queen. This looked 23 though he were splitting his honors, so declarer decided to obtain a finessing position and let West hold the trick. The ten of hearts was returned. Past showed out by discarding a diamond. Declarer won with the king and led the eight of spades, finessing dummy’s jack. East won the trick with the king. Now you can see that any return East makes will cost him a trick. He elected to return a small diamond. Declarer won with the jack and immediately cashed the ace of diamonds. He now played the ace of spades, discarding a small heart. Another spade was returned. East was forced to win with the ten and now was helpless. All he could do was cash his king of diamonds and concede the remainder of the tricks to declarer for three no trtunp. (Copyright. 1936, by NEA Service, Inc.)
