The Story: As soon as I learned
that Carl Metzker was a Com
munist courier, I had to flee for
my life. 1 assumed the identity
of a Caroline Leigh, whom Carl
had killed, and convinced Bart
Jonathan, her dead husband’s law -
yer, that I was her. But Carl fol
lowed me clear to Hollister, Ind.
I barely escaped Carl and now
Fm waiting at the railway sta
tion for a train to take me away
from Carl again. I called Bart,
but he only told me to “stay there
and be sensible.”

The station telegraph key start- J
ed chattering. As he mcved to
ward it, the telegrapher said,
“You're Mrs, Leigh, aint you?”
“l—yes.” It would ke foolhardy '
to try to explain that, since Bart
Jenathan knew I was Mary Tobias, |
there was no need to continue the |
deception. (
“Thought so.” He ripped off an
answer on his sending key; then,
“Friend of yours was here a while
ago, though you might be takin’
the 1:09—"
My heart went on beating, but
it pumped ice water, not warm
blood.
“ "Pwasn’t Bart Jonathan, neith
er.” The man man looked wise,
nastily wise “You in trouble, Mrs.
wgh?"
“This—this man—" 1 ignored
his question—“what did he look
like? Fortyish? Your height, only
heavier? Sandy mustache?”
“Ma’am,” the man paid no at
tention to the insistant key at his
elbow, “you have got trouble.
That’s him”,
I had known it would be, and |
1 had been a fool not to know that
Carl would have thought of the
train, I looked at the clock. It was
after midnight now, still almost
an hour—
“ Where—which way to Jona
than’s?”
“Two blocks down the track,
*most two more to your right.”
Bart had said “We’ll be right
over.” “We"—who else could it
be but Carl? Carl, whose lies Bart
would believe. I fled.
The cold wind, still sharp with
rain-smell, was a blessed relief. 1
sucked in great breaths of it. If
only I could find a policeman or
the Bfigce station!

i blocks down, Frantically I sought
| cover. There wasn’t any,
! Too far down the station plat
form, a railway yardman was busy
!getting ready for the 1:09. Across
| the track was a grain elevator and
la warehouse or two with loading
| docks. But they would expect me
| to hide there.
| There was no time for inde
| cision. Beyond the depot, tires
| protested as the brake was hit. I
| ran,
My fear ran with me and grew
as my feet pounded out “Carl—
Carl—Carl—" no matter how silent
t 1 tried to be. I.almost took the
| man’s arm off as I caught hysteric
- ally at his sleeve, ‘
. . “Please! I—l've got to have a‘
;policeman! -
' ‘Huh, lady the yardman pro-‘
‘tcswd. “You kill somebody?”
. “No, no,” I almost moaned it.
- “Please—you’ve got to—"
He disengaged my fingers from
!his sleeve, He looked oehind me,
toward the station. Then he took
my arm. “I'll find you a cop, but
we gotta hurry. The train—"
* * %
’ He hustled me around the low
’shed that must have been a sec
tion house. From the dark behind
us came a shout, someone running,
and 1 gasped, “Hurry! Please hur
ry!” The man beside me swore,
but he hurried. It was all I could
do to keep up.
His car was parked on a side
street beyond the railroad yard.
He jumped in from the right,
growled something as I followed,
and started rolling almost as the
motor caught. I was sobbing out
right, weak from fright and the
too-many shocks of the night, and
he let my cry.
Away from the depot and with
no signs of pursuit, he leaned
over and turned on his lights.
“Listen, lady the cops—l mean
___you__n
1 took a deep breath. “I haven’t
killed anybody.” My voice sounded
wooden. “I—they're trying to kill
me”,
He made another turn; Main
Street, better lighted than the
other loomed ahead again. He
sounded skeptical as he said, “Sure
it’s not your immagination?”
I didn’t answer.
Then: “Youre Paul Leigh’s
widow, aren’t you?” ’
“No, I'm not!” I snapped. “I said
I was because — because —" I
stopped. How could I tell him?
Why try? I said, “How far is it to
the police station?”
“Back past the depot” -
So that was why the circuitous
route through town. ;
Another deft turn, in silence. I
Jooked at him, head jutting angrily
forward, as if he were searching
the darkness beycfind the fan of
t from his headlamps.
u"‘lm‘he car had slowed, but I had
the feeling, suddenly, that all time
was get ntaiwgaonf tu—;e dell
etting away irom me.

to the police first? I mean—'
“Now, lady look—"
I sat back, properly slapped
down, murmuring “I'm sorry,

toward the rear and 1 followed.
“Watch it, it’s dark,” he warned, |
going ahead of me around the cor- |

I hesitated. There had been no
light beyond that frosted glass. It
was too late. i
Carl Metzker stepped in front of
me, a gun in his hand.

Korean Fro
Cigarettes
The local Veterans of Foreign
Wars, Auxiliary Post 2872, was re
sponsible for the shipment of 1100
packs of a popular brand cigarette
to the soldiers on the front lines
of the Korean battleground re
cently, according to the statement
of Mrs. Lilla Mae Wilson, senior
vice-president of the Auxiliary.
The cigarettes were sent to the
front lines by the auxiliary wo
men in the hopes that they would
help to make the daily lives of
the boys a little more pleasant.
The women of the auxiliary know
a good bit of the deprivations of
war since all of them are the
wives of men who have served in
foreign wars.
The project for the shipment of
the cigarettes was begun during
the recent Department of Georgia
Encampment of Veterans of For
eign Wars. They held a raffle at
the Saturday night social function
with the purpose of gaining funds
for the project. A good portion of

the funds were gained by the la

of the money was made by the
free will donations of state vet
erans. 5 i
The shipment of “eigarettes
bought by the Auxiliary was ac
companied by an additional 10,000
packs which the Georgia State
VFW sent overseas. !
According to Mrs. Wilson the
Auxiliary hopes that their contri
bution of cigarettes will result in
other worthwhile groups following
suit. Mrs. Wilson stated that Mrs.
Velma Patrick who served as
chairman of the Auxiliary En
campment was also greatly re
sponsoble for the success of the
project.
CROP DUSTER KILLED
ALBANY, Ga., July 11.—(AP)—
A crop-dusting pilot died in the
flaming wreckage of his Spear
man biplane early today on the
Harvey Jordan farnr at Leary, Ga.
Wilbur Goff, about 30, was
dusting peanuts early in the morn
ing when his plane caught fire in
the air, workers at the farm re
ported. Gogg skidded to a landing
in a small field but plowed into
the edge of a swamp area and
struck a large tree.
Jordan said Goff had been dust
ing crops in southwest Georgia for
about five years. Goff lived at
Clewiston, Fla. |
Ancient Egyptians, being fond of
music, used such instruments as
harps, lyres, guitars, double and
single pipes, and flutes.
Georgia farmers are finding it
advisable to make infestation
counts often during the next few
weeks to determine boll weevil
damage.
