What do vou wish me to do first this morning?" There was a pile of unanswered jetters. After he had labored an hour with trivial, routine dictation, Carolyn volunteered to answer all that she could alone, submitting the typed answers only for his approval. By noon only a scant dozen remained that demanded his own phrasing. : 5 & B SHE ATE alone in the drive-in lace a few blocks away, and was nn back typing. In mid-afternoon her employer asked if she could work this night again. “I shall be very busy in the jboratory arranging a leaden case” explained. “It is under way now, in fact. We might slip out for a

Hmmmm?” “All right. I'll call Ken. We" “Hmmmm?" “Ren Palmer. You met him, remember? He wantad to take me to dinner tonight and—"

Dr.| Hale showed no skill at arguing his | point, and no enthusiasm for fit] anyway. : But there was no dancing at this] second dinner hour together as there had been last night. Indeed.| this one was a bit formal: Carolyn saw that Robert Hale was physically | weary now and this disturbed her.| You must go home as soon as! you can and sleep,” she ordered | kindly. All at once she felt em-| barrassed. Bossing her own boss! She couldn't ever imagine herself feeling this friendliness and proprietorship for the banker where she had last been secretary; but Robert Hale was so—so different. The man with the truck came at 11:30. He was an efficient-looking | but somewhat arrogant individual. | Dr. Hale, Leana Sormi and Carolyn all went to the laboratory with him. Immediately both the driver and Carolyn were astounded. ! gE &« 8 ! FROM THE great laboratory, surrounded by armed guards—them-! selves enough to arouse curiosity— | Robert Hale carried a parcel noj bigger than half a shoe box.

Robert paid the man in advance. }

generously, but that didn't satisfy his curiosity. They had to ignore his veiled probings. “Wasn't it—risky—to hire him. Dr. Hale?” Carolyn asked as the man finally drove away. “No, Leana knew about him. From a bonded firm she said. Moving the X-899 in this manner should excite less suspicion than moving it in an armored car with a guard. Now I must hasten on out to the farmhouse to receive it. I will drop you by your home’ No more was said about it, but Carolyn’s intuitive common sense had been stirred almost to the point of alarm.
