Chapter 10


The theft of the ring proved to me
that one set of conspirators, search
ing for the location of the sunken
Jewels, had traced the clew from the
Queen of Smiles to me. The return
of the ring, together with Jim's letter,
reminded me that l might be In con-
slant danger. Now. that the thief OF
n week ago had learned by personal
investigation that the chart was not

the very safest hiding place for that
chart was bstk in the ring. | took

In its lapis casket and went down to
dinner.
Just as the dessert was placed on
the table, i'm rushed Eloise, white as
ever she could have been when she
first faced the hun beast four years
ago.
"Pardonnez-moii" she walled. "Uu
voleur! I'm homme-en haut-dans
lie boudoir de Nine. Jeanne! Jai peur!
Bien sur madame. Je 'lal va, Get
homme, en- B~elgique.'
The butler, not at all understanding
what Eloise had cried out to him as
she ran downstairs. had followed her
into the dining room.
"A burglar" 1 translated for Dad
dy. I'm my ROOM"
[ had a bunch rs to what that
burglar wanted there, and [ would
have followed the men upstairs to see
him, if possible, but mother called
me back. Eloise had collapsed in a
heap on the floor.
After we had revived her and put
her to bed. 1 ran to my room. As /
suspected, il was Uttered from end to
end with my personal possessions.
Even my calling cards had been scat
tered, the thin sheets of tissue which
protected the engraving had been
slipped off into a snowy heap. 1t
was plain to me hat whoever n
stolen the ring from my finger a week
ag6 had just searched my room for
the key to the location of the U-boat.
'Eloise scared the scamp. l sup

Daddy ordered some iron bars set
over my windows next day, and he
put an extra night Waterman on the
grounds. Nevertheless, / did not sleep
well.
But Elolse felt much safer. No

not deceived her! She said that the

LEGION MEMBERS
 WARNED AGAINST. USE 0F MOB RULE.
LRepub,ic.n A. P. Leased wirel

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 22-Franlxlin DOlier, national commander of the American Legion, today declared that neither national, nor local organiza- tions of the American Legion have any right to take the law in their own hands or interfere with proper authorities,s ,s and warned members of the legion that such action would be subversive of the principles and ideals of the or ganization. The declaration was part of a statement, made by the national commander, in view of the recent re- ports of activities of members of the legion. which, he said, made it imper- ative that the policy of the organiza- tion with respect to it's standing on the maintenance of law and order be defined.
 ''The American Legion" Mr. D'Olier said, represents nearly 5,000,000 cit izens who have demonstrated their loyalty and patriotism. We realize, however, that there are 100000 900 other Americans, just as patriotic and loyal We represented the spear point keen and true, and back of us was the power of whole nation at war. Our effectiveness against the enemy was in proportion to the strength of the country back of us. And now we must realize that the strength of the legion and our influence and service to the nation will be measured only by our ability to cooperate effectively with the 100,000,0OO other loyal and patriotic American citizens in the promotion of 100 per cent Americanism, and the maintenance of law and order. We know that there is only one way to maintain law and order and that one and only way is through the orderly process of government, and it's duly constituted agencies.
 Tn times of need and emergency, we members of the American Legion stand ready. as individuals to support strengthen and speed up, if necessary, the civil authorities charged with the maintenance of law and order : But always in accordance with com petent authority which we realize now is civilian and not military and origi- mates in the constitution of the United States as expressed through natonal state and local governments.
