his hand out to the major. But hand

Streetman said, to make the matter en-
tirely clear. And he appeared not at
all uneasy over the contingency. In
fact, he impressed Charlie Brown as
being irritatingly cheerful.
II know you hope for the BEST"
Brown told him. He could not deny
himself that passing retort. "But don't
worry" he told the major. II won't
miss Brussels road. And. Streetmap,

up! I'll give you one good timer

GERS whom he might meet would prove
to be Columbia men.
1T is his own risk" Streetman said.
He did not have to come here. .
Now, major, there may be other spies.
Would it not be best to replace the
telephone and put a secret guard
around this room? Then If anyone else
comes to the telephone, we shall
know"
The scheme appealed to Major Won
Brenig. Accordingly, they had Or
dered the man Otto to return the in
strumeut to its hiding place. And sta
tioning others where they might keep
watch of the fireplace, and yet not be
seen by anyone who entered the room,
they instructed Lieutenant Baum to

the telephone.

event." the major said.
If necessary, shoot before any mes
sage can be sent" streetman told him.
The man from the Wilhelmstrasse
then hurried away to see General
Freund, promising to return to Join the

put of their cows along dairy lines. He
especially urged the feeding on the
farm of hay and grain raised, SO the
fertility of the soil may be conserved
