"Father, please " she began Rp did not seem to hear her. Arthur Lang was a man of medium height, slightly built, but anger peemed to make him formidable. He took a few steps forward, then fctopped. 'This Is an outrage!" he ex claimed dramatically. "'Newspaper' men that's what you are! Don't try to tell me you're not I heard enough to know. Sneaking in where you're not wanted. It's an outrage. I told you this morning not to come around my house. I told you to stay away from here!" "Put, Mr. Lang!" There was no use trying to stem the torrent. Bannister saw that as soon aa he had spoken. The older man's voice rose in volume. "I won't have you here!" he stormed, his face flushing crimson. crim-son. "Don't you understand that? A man has a right to some privacy in his own home! You can print what you want in your filthy sheets; you can peep through the keyholes of other men's homes, but I'll have the law on you, damn you. if you don't get out of here! I'll !" Bannister interrupted again. Already Al-ready he was on his feeL "Come on. Gainey." he said levelly. "I take it we're being invited to move elsewhere. Sorry. Miss Lang!" Over his shoulder he caught a glimpse of the girl's white face. Was there mute appeal in that swift glance something the girl wanted to tell him? Bannister thought so. Perhaps it was nothing noth-ing more than an apology for her father's behavior. Whatever it was. there was only a fraction of a second sec-ond before Bannister had turned away. A tnoment later he and Gainey were in the hall. The maid supplied their hats and the two men stepped outside. Galney snorted, "The old croco- Sile! Say. who does he think he i is, anyway? I'd like to bounce him on the bean! I'd like to tell him a thing or two !" "Well, you'll have to pick another an-other time," Bannister assured him. I thought we'd better get out before the old duffer had apoplexy. Certainly doesn't love the brethren of the press much, does he?" Gainey's mutterings subsided in antle Drofanity.

THE wind, as Parker Coleman had Informed them, was coming com-ing from the west. It was a gale with a nip fn it, a promise of frosty nights tft come. Overhead the sky was starless and the only light came from a none too bright street lamp a dozen yards ahead, where the walk leading to the house branched off from the main sidewalk. Heads bent to protect themselves from the wind, Galney and Bannister Ban-nister set .off. "How're we going to get down town' Bannister wanted to know. "There's a car line over here a coupls of blocks or so." Galney told him. "It's the only way I know. Say. the more I think of the nerve or that guy ! There was a ndise behind them ! and both turned. Silhouetted in the open doorway was a figure. It called, "Hi, there!" and a moment ! later Parker Coleman was hurry I ing toward them. j "You two!" he exclaimed, breath ' lessly. "Can't I give you a lift j down town? I've got my car over j here." 1 They saw the-car then, a dark ' shadow In the driveway. "That's swell." said Gainey. "Did the old geeter send you out to be sure we were really leaving his premises?" Coleman laughed good naturedlv i "No," he said, "he didn't send me j Lord, isn't he a Tartar? Mot i. ways, you know. He can be as decent as anyone. I didn't know it before, but apparently he has a grudge against newspaper men Told Denise not to see any of them, i Of course he was only trying to ' spare her. I suppose he's UDset ! about this whole thing They had reached the roadster, a large, low-swung model, and Coleman held back the door Climb in," he invited going : ' around to the other side and slip pjng into the drivers seat. This Is mifrtatv kind of m.. i Bannister said as the roadster s en i gine came to life and the big car backed slowly out into the street. Coleman ignored this. "Where ! you bound for?" he asked 1 "Central police station," Galney told him. "If von ran Hmn us near a car line "I'll take you all the way." Cole Ew nnT vW? T, AoWu ' town anyhow. No trouble at all. i By the way, docs one of you happen hap-pen to have a cigaret?" B ANNISTER produced a package and a lighter. When the three i cfgarets were glowing Coleman I leaned hack In the seat. "I followed you," he explained, "because Denise can handle her father better than anyone else and I thought it would be easier for her if they were alone. Denlse Lang is well, you see, we've been the best of friends ever since we were kids. Denise is absolutely 100 per cent!" There was feeling in the man's voice. Easy to guess how he felt about Denise Lang! "I stopped in tonight." he went on, "to see if there was anything I could do for her. Of course there isn't. There's nothing, I suppose, ' that anyone can do. The thing is j too terrible!" j I suppose you knew Tracy King, j too?" Gainey asked. "Well, yes. I've seen him out at the club and met him once or twic with Denise. Very likable fellow. that a number of families had been assisted during the past month. A paper on "National De- I fense," prepared by Mrs. Frank Doming, district chairman ofv national na-tional defense, was read by Mrs. Sylvia Swenson. Plans wore made for holding an invitational dance at the legion hall, Feb. 3. ; Mrs. Josephine Taylor, chair-. chair-. man of the music committee, con-; con-; ducted community singing and gave a talk on the "Three Distinct Divisions of American Folk Songs - -Negro, 1 Indian and Cowboy BUDDIES vowv. voo HOH r .. XI KIEVCR HEARD OF I '"'' I thought. Very likable! If you'd known him at all .you'd know how utterly pteposteroua it la to thlak that anyone could murder hfm." He hesitated. "I suppose It was murder?" he asked. "The police are sure of that?" "It couldn't have been anything else." Galney told . him. "Charlk Westwood, the coroner, told m there were no powder burns. Besides, Be-sides, a man can't shoot himsell without a gun. Whoever shot that bullet took the gun away." Coleman's lips set In a straight line. "Poor Denlse!" he said. "She's trying to be brave about it." "It struck me," Bannister put In. "that the father was more hysterical hys-terical than the daughter. 1 shouldn't think a man like that would be any too pleased to have his daughter engaged to marry the master of ceremonies in a movie theater.' I dorft suppose he was." Cole man agreed, "but he's never denied Denlse anything in her life. He couldn't very well start doing it now. He he's a rather hard man to understand. I don't pretend to understand him and I've known nim a11 mv life." RANNISTER S line of thought changed suddenly. "You must have been with M,BS Lan" he 8aid' "at the tim that bul,et h,t KlnS-" He turned toward Galney. "Didn't the coroner figure it was between n,ne and nine-thirty that Kin died?" "Right," Gainey nodded. Coleman's eyes left the road ahead for an stant, "Is that a fact?" he asked- " didn't know tney co,uId estimate the time so exactly" Galney launched into a technical explanation of the coroner's work. Bannister found the details a trifle nauseous and deliberately tried not to listen. Between 9 and 9:30 the nignt before he remembered only too well where he himself had been. A picture of the girl in the taxlcab flashed before him-the BIrl In th gre suit 11 must have been almo8t 9:30 whe h met her and 20 mlnutes later when he ,eft her at the hoteL Tracy King had dled betwen 9 aQd 9 30. the coroner said- Wel1. the coroner was an accurate man, extremely accurate In his work. He heard Coleman asking if he should turn at the next block and Galney answer in the affirmative. . . ...

Bannister and Gainey stepped out of the car. Coleman waved aside their thanks for the lift and the roadster was off again down the street, "That's a nice guy," Gainey commented com-mented as he mounted the steps of the building. Bannister nodded. "Wouldn't yon think Denise Lang would prefer him to the crooning orchestra leader?" "Aw nerts!" Gainey became sud denly philosophical. "Who can tell anything about a woman?" Inside the building they paused to speak to a blue-coated officer. Yes, he said. Captain McNeal waj around the building somewhere, Just came in half an hour before.
