Under the direction of the Health De partment of the City of Athens, sponsored by the Auxiliary of the Clarke County Medical Society and with the cooperation of the Woman’s club, P.-T. A., and the _Gar@en club, the success of the undertak- Ing is assured. Every citizen should join in the effort to rid Athens of unsanitary surroundings and cooperate with the health officials and the representatives of the various civic clubs in making this city a clean and heaithful place in which to live. For years, “Clean-Up” week in Athens has been made an annual affair in which all citizens have taken a live interest. It is expected that the citizens will see to it that their lots are not only cleaned, but that all rubbish is placed in a convenient place for the sanitary force in order that the trucks of the department may be load ed with the least possible delay. In addi tion to the cleaning and removing accumu lations of rubbish from the lots and yards of the homes, the sanitary force will see to the cleaning and removing the accumu lations from vacant lots. With a thorough and, systematic cam paign, Athens can be kept one of the cleanest and healthiest cities in the coun try. ; MRS. JULIUS 'Y. TALMADGE The election of Mrs. Julius Y. Talmadge, of this city, to the office of recording sec retary general of the national society of the Daughters of the American Revolu tion, was a distinct honor and recognition of her worth and service to the organiza tion for the past several years. Of more than ordinary interest is the announce ment that Mrs. Talmadge was the first Georgian to become a D. A. R. cabinet of ficer. For a number of years, Mrs. Talmadge has been active and prominent in club af fairs, especially, in the D. A. R. work. She has held the office of Regent in the Elijah Clark Chapter; State Regent and vice president general of the national D. A. R. in 1929. She is prominently identified in local and state affairs, being a member of the State Democratic Executive Committee and a member of the State Board of Edu cation. ! Through her interest in the organization of the Daughters of the American Revolu tion, Mrs. Talmadge has become national ly known as one of its outstanding leaders. Her friends here and in the state feel hon ored and are appreciative of her recogni tion by the members of the national Daughters of the American Revolution, CONTROLLING MACHINE GUNS Due to the activities of and on the urgent request of Attorney General Cummings, last year, congress enacted a drastic law for the control of the sale of machine guns. This law has proved a wonderful help for the eradication of crime by the Depart ment of Justice agents, but the law should have gone farther and prohibited the sale of small arms. The underworld has grown in strength, in some sections of the coun try, but praetically all of the outstanding public enemies have been arrested and turned over to the courts or killed by gov ernment officers. However, those that are left are a menace to society and are the breeders of crime. The St. Louis Post-Dis patch, in commenting on present condi tions, has the following to say: “No effort to disarm the criminal can be complete without control of pistols and revolvers, highly adaptable to lawless pur poses because they may be easily conceal ed. In fact, as Mr. Cummings point out, the United States is the only major nation that permits unlicensed sale of these wea pons in most jurisdictions. “The program calls for registration of small arms before they may be carried across state lines; a tax on manufacturers and dealers; a tax of $1 on each transfer of a weapon. Law-abiding citizens could still obtain wedpons, and officials would have a powerful instrument for dealing with the underworld. America’s shocking homicide rate shows the great need for ac tion. Any step that will help keep mur derous weapons out of the underworld’s hands is highly desirable.” ; Attorney General Cummings is author ity for the statement, that “there are more people in the underworld carrying deadly weapons than in the Army and Navy of the United States.” All, of which is, no doubt true, but the leaders of this invisible government have met with many disas ters during the past six months., In fact, the number of these public enemies have been materially reduced. If congress .wlll give its support to the measures deS}red by the Attorney General of the United States, the underworld will soon be dis armed and its leaders placed in safe keep ing, in the jails of the country. Considered to be the father of light houses, the Pharos of Alexandria was built at Alexandria, Egypt, several centuries be fore the birth of Christ. It was several hundred feet in height and the blazing fire at its summit was visible 27 miles at sea.

JARIS HAPP, a stranger, offers to help her. H- sends her to a beauty shop where she is transform ed into a brunet, then takes her home, introducing her as his secretary. She meets Happ’s son, NORMAN; his stepson, ROBERT ' CAISE; MRS. HAPP; and VERA DU CHENE, Mrs. Happ’'s maid. That night a note under her door informs Millicent, “The woman in black ermine is here.” Millicent sees the wo man, tries to follow, but loses her. Millicent goes to the chauffeur’s quarters. The chauffeur is dead from a bul let wound. Next morning SERGEANT MAHONEY takes charge of the case. He questions Milli cent Later when she is in the corridor talking to Norman they hear Mrs. Happ answer the telephone downstairs. A moment later Mrs. Happ © screams. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY ——i CHAPTER XXIX. Millicent remained rooted to the stairs, staring withs wide, incred ulous eyes. It was Norman who raced down the stairs, picked up Mrs. Happ, holding his hands be neath her arm-pits. *What is 15 Cynthia?’ he asked. Twice she started to speak, and twice words failed to come from her lips. “What is it?” Norman demand ed again, alarm in his voice. “Your father,” she said. “What about him?” “They telephoned.” “Who telephoned?” “The men who had him.” “What do you mean?”’ he asked. Millicent suddenly came to life. She sensed something of the sig nificance of the words, ran down three or four stairs. “You mean he's been arrested,” she asked. Mrs. Happ shook her head and said, “He's been kidnaped.” “What?’ Norman Happ exclaim ed. “Kidnaped.” “How do you know " “They said so over the tele phone.” “Who said so?” “The men who had him.” “What did they say?” “They said they had him, that he was safe for the present, that there was no use trying to look for him, and that under no cir cumstances were we to notify the police—that if we notified the po lice he would be killed.” “But what did they - want?” Norman Happ asked. “Was it money ?” “They didn't say. They said they would communicate with me later, and that when they got in touch with me they'd give instruc tions as to what they wanted. They said T was to keep Mr. Happ's disappearance completely concealed from the officers. in the house.” “They knew that officers werg in the house?’ Norman Happ asked. “Apparently.” Millicent was frowning, doing some very rapid thinking. | “He left his study,” she said, “and gave Mr. Buchanan the key. Mr. Buchanan had some evidence he wanted .. .” ~ | The Spirit of Sacrifice cusing forefinger at Millicent. “You!"” she screamed. “You're the little hussy that brought this all about! If it hadn’t been for you this would “never have hap penéd! He breught you into the house and look what's. happened. My husband ‘is - kidnaped. His chauffeur has been killed. We're all inveived in scandal. There are police officers. .trooping about the house, asking questions and prying into things that are none of their business. And who's to blame for it—who’s responsbile?” Cynthia- Happ's voice rose to a crescendo. of “hysterical accusation and her rigid forefinger fairly quivered as she pointed at Milli cent. Phn “You apellith . Norman fia.pp said, “Now listen, Cynthia, calm yourself. This sin’t going to do anyong any good.” The woman pushed him to one side. “Yom're - responsible,” she screamed -at. Millicent. “Don’t stand there with ' that mealy mouthed look on your face. You can't bluff me with any of that kind of stuff. You're responsible for Harry Felding's murder! It's because of you my husband’s been kidnaped! ¥You' y . .” Sergeant Mahoney's voice, from the head of-the staircase, sounded as professionally cheerful as the voice of a doctor entering a sick room where the patient is lying on his death bed. “Well, well, well,” he said. “So there seems to have been a kidnaping. Tell me about it, Mrs. Happ.” . At once Cynthia Happ regained control of Herself. She took a deep breath, stared at the head of the stairs with resentment glittering in her eyes. Sergeant Mzhoney moved from the head of the stairs, walking around the corner of the banister so that he was plainly visible. Mrs. Happ's face wreathed it self in smiles. “It happens,” she said, ‘“that you overheard me tell ing this young minx exactly what I thought of her. I'm afraid I wasn’'t mineing words."- “Indeed you weren't,” Sergeant Mahoney said, coming down the stairs, “but you said something about your ‘husband being kid naped.” . : Cynthia Happ laughed. “T'm afraid that I was very much worked up,” she said. "I'm cer tainly thankful to you for the in terruption, Sergeant. Regardless of the provocation I muy have had, 1 certainly had no license to talk to a servant as though she were an equal. After all, the child is nothing but a hireling—one Wwho does my husband’s work, one wWho is in my house because i* is nec essary to have her here—just as one would have a painter, a scrub woman, or a window washer.” / Millicent realized Mrs. Happ was trying to make her lose her temper, to create a scene in the hope that such a scene would dis tract the attention of Sergeant Mahoney from what Mrs. Happ herself said. Millicent refused to make a scene. She surveyed the older woman with a frosty smile, and kept perfecily silent. For a moment Sergeant Maho ney looked puzzled. Then he said. “But what about the Kidnaping, Mrs. Happ?” Mrs. Happ's smile was the smile of a perfect hostess welcom ing her guests. “I'm sure,” she cooed in her most seductive tones, “that I know nothing Whatever about any kidnaping.” “Under those circumstances,” Sergeant Mahoney suggested, “suppose we have a little talk to gether. I want to use the tele then I would like -to talk wlthl you."” . “It happens,” Mrs. Happ told him, “I have other plans.” “Surely they're not so import ant that they can't wait for a few moments.” ‘ “I'm afraid they are.” His face became stern. He sald.! “I'm_afraid I'm going to have to insist, Mrs. Happ.” * “What do you mean by that?" “Just what I said.” “How strongly would you in sist?” “As strongly,” he told her grim ly, “as it became necessary for me to insist, in order to carry my point.” y She had played too much bridge not to knew when the cards were stacked against her, and she was too practiced a hostess not to know how to carry off the situa tion. : “Oh, under . those circumstan ces,” she said, “if it's so import ant I will be glad to alter my plans. Where did you wish to go for our little chat?” “First,”” he told her, “the tele phone.” Both Millicent and Norman Happ remained on the stairs, their ears strained, listening, Abruptly, from the lower floor, Sergeant Mahoney's voice drifted up to them. & “But, madam,” he said, “this telephone has been knocked from the stand. I heard it ringing a short time ago and I'm quite cer tain 1 heard your voice answering i “It was,” she told him, “a wrong number. I'm afraid I must have knocked the stand over when 1 turned away.” s . “But the. stand hasn't been knocked over,” Sergeant Mahoney said insistently. “It's the tele phone that was knocked or thrown to the floor. How do you explain that? And 1 heard you scream. How about that " ' “Really, Sergeant, there are some things one just can't explain —matters of carelessness, per- BN, T Her voice trailed off into silence and Norman Happ, taking Milli cent's arm, turned her gently about on the stairs, started as cending them. “They’ll just talk around in circles,” he said. “Cynthia won't tell him anything, but you and I have got to have a talk.” 5 She found herself welcoming the ‘touch of his palm under her el bow. “He’ll know that she's lying.” “Phat won't make any differ ence,” Norman Happ said grimly. “He won't get any information out of her, but we've got to do something.” “What do you mean?’ she ask ed. They were in the corridor now. Norman Happ looked about him, then lowegred his voice. “She’s a wonderful actrgss,” he said. “She’s got plenty of poise. Sergeant Mahoney will never get her story.” “Don’t you believe it,” Millicent retorted. “Sergeant Mahoney will read her thoughts. He's playing with her as a cat plays with a mouse.” { “Perhaps you're right,” Norman Happ agreed, “but the time has lcome for you to put all of your cards on the table. We've got to play this thing together. Have kyou enough confidence in me to itell me everything?” Millicent suddenly found herself ’staring into his eyes. He had _grasped her shoulders, whirled her about so that she was facing him. His arms were around her, “Millicent,” he said, “can you, will you tell me everything?” } (To Be Continued.) ‘ SUNDAY SCHOOL MEET CARROLLTON, Ga. —(#)— The‘ Carroll County Sunday School as sociation is to hold a Sunday School. conference meeting in the Bowden Methodist church April 28, Several prominent religious leaders of the state are to be presemt. .. _ .
