To help this generation of boys grow into healthy manhj.od,' it is necessary, that they have proper training to strengthen their bodies and enrich their-minds. A respect fyr law and order, a spirit of unselfish service to others, are a; part of g'ood citizenship.. . .: Self-reliance and resourcefulness aie as essential in time of peace as in war. Here in America we shall continue to need men trained to appreciate our heritage and to put into practice in their home communities all that we think of when we use the word democracy. The Boy Scouts of America are observing their thirtyfifth anniversary. The training they give to the youth . of America is one of the finest ways we know of to assure the perpetuation of good citizenship and American ideals. The Scout membership is. now 1,800,000. We wish that every boy in America who wants to be a Scout has an opportunity to be one. They could be, if men of character and institutions and groups interested in youth would get behind the Movement. '

CHAPTER FORTY "When did you last open the cupboard?" t There was a short pause. Then Alexia said she didn't know. "Perhaps several days ago. 1 really can't-remember. Except that if the checks had been there when I last looked, I would have seen them." "Do you know Frederic Miller?" asked Nugent pointblank. "No,," replied Alexia. And they could get nothing else out of her. Anybody in the house, she said, could have known of the little cupboard. She gave me a long, bright look when she was told that I had found the checks and there was something in her look that actually started a kind of chill up my back. Anybody could have put the checks there, just as anybody a?ain she looked at me fixedly and brightly could have taken them. Conrad's desk was never locked. When questioned about Conrad's former sympathy for the German cause she said that, of course, everyone knew where, his sympathies had. lain. . "Had he ever been interested in the various Bund organizations?" asked Nugent. "I 'don't know." "Do you remember the clipping you said you took from his desk? At the time you said you saw the box. of medicine." "Yes. Certainly." "Did you read it?". "Yes. I read it aloud. He asked rm- to." "Can you remember what it was about?"
"I told you. It concerned the ar-
resi of some members of the Bund." . "Their names were given, I suppose."
"No. I believe not. I really don't remember. So much has happened
since then.' "What did you do with it?"
"I don't know. My husband asked me to read it and I did. I believe
1 gave it to him. Qr perhaps I put
it on the table."
"Who was in the room at the
time,?" Her slender black eyebrows drew together. "I'm not sure that I remember that, exactly, either. My husband and I. of course. It was immediately after dinner. Mrs. Cluvery was there. 1 suppose my liiothcr' and Peter Huber were tlicre. too." , , . .-"Airs. Brent, try to remember lids, Was it your, impression that anyone in tha room had a special interest in hearing the clipping lead"" 1 lould read nothing in her beautiful d'.iicate face. She said very promptly. "No one but my husW.n.l. And I've no idea why hejvas iiiieU'Sied." NuK-'iit waited . a myjuent and tn'.ii sai.l directly, "What about orot.ier?". ';,iy iirolher?"' asked Alexia. "nt "ivally . ", ,Her voice was , I Mid iit-'l her eyebrows ;..'.-'icd in delicate oue-tion. "But - . l.ii uU'iii'.i'.t. my brother had
nothing- to do "with the arrest of any members of any Bund. He has I
never had any sympathy for Germany." . .
"He's registered for the draft?" "Certainly. He can tell you." "You and your brother lived
abroad for some time, didn't you?"
"When we were children, yes. "What of Peter Huber?" Craig started to speak, . but Alexia replied, "You know everything I know of him, Lieutenant. He's been here about a month. He's waiting for his call to the army." "Let me see. According to his storv he went to school in California." "I believe so," answered Alexia. "Didn't you check his statements? I understood that was part of your job." "You are quite right,", said Nugent, unruffled,. "I'm afraid I've forgotten his home. I mean, the name of the town. What -Was it, Brent?" "Pete's home?" said Craig. "I don't know. I know where he went to school. I think he lived somewhere near Monterey.". "Do you remember his most recent address?" asked Nugent. "I think he said Hollywood. He was trying to get a job in the movies. I suppose a Hollywood address is the logical surmise in that case. Besides that's where he knew Bill Sheridan." "Bill Sheridan!" exclaimed Nugent. "Who's he?" "Fellow Pete knows. And I know. Went to school 'with Pete; that is, university. Bill was in my class at prep school. Yes, I'm sure Pete came from Hollywood here." "Is that your impression, Mrs. Brent?" ."Really," parried Alexia. "If you've forgotten, I'd suggest your asking him. Peter is nothing to me, you know. I never, saw him before Conrad met him at the inn, in the village, and brought him here." "That was about a month ago." "Yes," said Alexia. Nugent got out a little black
notebook and turned a fev pages. "Ah," he said. "You were both right It was a Hollywood address he gave us." I was sure somehow, in spite of his quiet voice that he had remembered all along and thus had only been testing Craig and Alexia but testing them for what
(aside from their knowledge of Peter and of Nicky) I didn't know. He said, "Yes, of course, how could I have forgotten! "And Nicky" he turned another leaf. "Nicholas Scnour, brother-in-law to deceased. M-m-m. Apartment on East Fifty-sixth street in New York- Lives mainly at Brent homey traveled extensively in Europe as a child; last trip made in . . ." He squinted hard at the writing, although- from where . I siooj it looked perfectly neat and legible, and said, "Can't make this out. When was his last trip abroad. Airs. Brent, and where did he go?" "It was in 1'.;;I7," said Alexia, "and he went to Italy."
"I don't seem, to liave his occu
pation down here either. What doea
he do for a living?" Alexia bit her full underlip. "He doesn't do anything." "Oh. Inherited money, I presume. You and your brother." She hesitated and then said, "A little. Not much." "I see." He closed the book suddenly and leaned forward. "Mrs. Brent, what about those checks made out to your brother? Were they for any specific service?" Alexia waited a second, her eyes shadowed again by her dark eyelashes, then she looked up. "Lieutenant, that has nothing to do with my husband's death, or with the murder of Dr. Chivery. Nicky needed some money, of course; he's young and has no source of income. My husband knew that it would please me if he saw to it that Nicky had a little money, tnat's all." "And Nicky lives here, mainly?" "Yes. Since my marriage, at any rate. Before that we shared his apartment in New York." "So you know most of his friends?" "Why, I yes, I should think so." "Did he know Peter Huber?" "No, of course not. None of us knew him." "Were any of your friends at all interested in politics?" "Why, I really, I don't remember." There was a tinge of uncertainty in her voice, yet it was nothing that seemed exactly significant. It was more as if she could not discover the trend of Nugent's questions. If so, she was soon enlightened however. For Nugent leaned for-" ward, his lean face suddenly as sharp as a hatchet. "Who is Frederic Miller?" he asked abruptly. "I don't know," said Alexia. "I don't have the faintest idea." .; In the end, Nugent seemed to accept her denial. He said. "Try. to think back, Mrs. Brent; try to remember." And added, "Youtold me that you had not seen Drue Cable since last night when you saw her going from this room to her own room. You are sure you didn't see her at any later time?" "Perfectly sure." "You don't know where she is?" "Certainly not. She wouldn't.
have taken me into her confidence before she escaped, I assure you." "Did you send her a message of any sort?" "No," said Alexia, and rose. "If that is all. Lieutenant . . ." He nodded. "Send Mrs. Chivery in here, will you please?" Alexia went away rather abruptly. She looked a little shaken,, it seemed to me, but by no means ready to break down and tell .ili. If, that is, there was anything for ' her to tell. Maud must have been in Hie hull, for Ale:;ia had scarcely gone when she appeared in the doorway a.ul entered. .

"AN UNSUNG HERO" Editor, Daily Times: They buried "Lib" McCIure today. In the cataclysm of war, when thousands are killed every day, in this period of gigantic battles, history-making conferences, and momentous plans for the future, the death of a humble coal miner and county commissioner passes almost unnoticed. And yet, it is undoubtedly true that in point of manhood and character, measured in terms of courage, fidelity, charity and brotherly love, "Lib" McCIure ranks head and shoulders above many of the so-called world leaders whose cowardice, greed, and lust for power have driven humanity into the catastrophe of war. Raked by constant pain, "Lib" toiled in the mine, until a few weeks ago. As a-public official, he was honest, courteous and devoted to the public welfare. He was a believer in the "common man" and he was kind and generous toward all. . He had hoped to see his son return from the naval battles near the Philippines, but this last privilege was denied him. It may -truthfully be said thaf "Lib" McCIure will live in the memory of his friends so long as men respect the virtues of fear.esrness, loyalty,"nonesty and generosity. A Neighbor.
