schedule to determine when would be the best time to broadcast the alarm Garrick had impressed on his mind.
 Garrick looked curiously at the little hole in a cylinder dangling from an adjustable stand in front of him.
 "Is it about the right height' You prefer to stand? All right. How's that? Now, don't forget-talk di- rectly into that little hole-good and loud. Keep up your voice. About three inches away from the trans hitter. There. Now, wait until l tell you"
 The minutes seemed eternity to Dick. Would it never be possible for Garrick to soar on wings of wire less to the succor of Ruth and Vira?
 "All set?" The attendant called. Lets go."
 Ruth Walden and Vira Gerard of Nonowantuc Long Island, were kid mapped in a house boat. the Sea Vamp," from Duck Harbor, Long, Island. tonight, about nine o'clock"
 The attendant nodded to ,Garrick that in his opinion he was no novice in handling the affair.

There wasn't a sound. We climbed aboard and went down tc the little engine room. It was beast ly dark.

 T don't know, But l think so I had vague feeling there were a couple at least back of me-" Dick stared at Garrick. Vira gone too. Georges, Brock, Jack Curtis, Rae. He uttered the names. suspi- ciously Was it in reality final ad- venture in the double triangle of Ruth, himself and Jack. Nira, Rae and Glenn?
 "So," Dick mumbled sadcastically with a side glance at Garrick. Ruth know very well what she was doing eh?'
 inI- {nn hi fn tol= Nf fense. Dick" he replied merely,
 Ruth confided in me, that morning at the usonia, She's really clever You know it as well as I do. But they had her-they had them all. meshed, hooked. Why, Dick, all the time she had meant just to lead them on-and hand the mover, when she got them right. But she couldn't tell Glenn, here, that, Nor Nira. Not yet He glanced up at his own car. If she had only stuck to her promise--to let me know-first. But Ruth is so clever; she thinks she's match for anyone. And mostly she is. Wait! She'll prove it
 II was cold comfort to Dick. Well, now, what good is it to be here? If we had only gone to the city, we could have alarmed the police there"
 Garrick smiled patiently. You for get the Radio Central at Rock Ledge and the telephone. I can do all that here. l can call up and get the police of the country here by telephone. Be- sides, from Rock Ledge l can alarm the police of the world. Every ship, every amateur station, on any wave length--the wireless world is open to me here."

 ."Ill be out herewith you-in z few minutes" he shouted.
 Dick was still in a daze at the un. eypeetedness of the blow. Mechani- cally he followed Garrick and climbed into the car As it started and turned down the road to Nonowantuc, the cool of the damp evening air seemed to collect his faculties, He noticed for the first time where they were headed.

 Nita Walden was overwhelmed by
  escapades were nothing compared to this. Up and down the room she paced, choking back her sobs, wait ing for Garricks arrival. Some mo- ments she would stand before Ruth's picture wondering what was happen ing to her. Other moments she would try to calm herself and relax in an easy chair in a vain effort to concentrate on Ruth as if that might bring her back.
 She was frantic when Garrick ar lived.

 Pay a million? Pa ynothing. Yes million to catch them and save her but not q cent of ran- son."
 The room telephone rang. Dick answered it.

 The doctor did not answer but led the way outside and q few feet down the driveway.

 1 There were no formalities neces- sary at the Radio Central for com bination like Garrick and Dick. who was a constant frequcnter of the | place
 They soon found themselves in q small room, quite plain except for the draperies that were artistically arranged to hide the bare walls There were few plants and flowers about, also. At one end stood a beautiful piano of the reproducing variety. Some Of the hest known artists had in reality played on it. all had played on 1t through the per
  photographs Of all the standard we'll known makes and on the other side an automatic organ.
 A small table with a silk shaded lamp added a touch of nominees and there were few, not many, deep easy chairs.
 But the most important piece of furniture which interested Garrick more than anything else, as the at tendant conducted them in, was the cabinet containing little lamps and plenty of switches and wiring, con- prising what is know as the modu- lating equipment. It was a wooden framework covered with copper screening to prevent the delicate ap- paratus from being disturbed by electrical and magnetic influences within the room itself. Various con- ductors connecting up the cabinet and the transmitter were sheathed in beautiful, bright and neat woven copper sleeves or tubes for the same reason.
 There's the little transmitter mounted on that portable stand" pointed out Dick. "The radiophone transmitter, proper, is located in a little room under the roof overhead. There are a couple Of operators, for it contains all the elements of actual transmission. When this studio is to broadcast it is connected by this switch over here with the radio sta tion upstairs. Here's wire ele- phone to it, too."
 Garrick hardly needed to be told. | He had seen it once before, the radio telephone transmitter which con- sisted of a cabinet closed in by iron grill work to prevent damage to the | delicate vacuum tubes, five of them for the normal operation. At the eX- treme end of long operating desk or table was the transmitter. On the table were ordinary telephone instru- ments, radio apparatus, receiving set with amplifiers. telephone head | sets and a loud speaking device by which the operators could hear the speech or music rendered downstairs, only here actuated by the long dis tance receiving set.
 Now, here's the phonetron-the dish basin some people call it" pointed out the attendant, who had been looking at his watch and a

4 Mew Sense Of
 Freedom

Tn Cantilever Shoes you walk with a new sense of freedom a new lifting step a new rhythmic swing of the weight from one foot to the other. Gone is the vise-like restriction of stiff soles, gone is the weariness due to distorted feet and poor posture, gone are the aches and pains of fallen arches. Health and comfort walk in the Cantiever Shoe.
 DESIGNED FOR COMFORT
 The last is patterned from the out line of the foot. The natural inner sole line provides room for the toes and allows them to point straight ahead. This and the well set heel en- courage correct posture. In Cantilev- CTS the weight is distributed so that there is no strain on the arch of the foot.

.FLEECEOSOC|E1YW0MEM

NEW YORK, Feb. 2s.-Alfrcd Z.
Lindsay, alleged swindler OF society
women, issued statement from his
cell In Tombs prison today denying
that he had flecced them out OF near
ly $1,o00,000 by fake stock transac-
tions, and painting himself as a faith
ful meal ticket to those who had lost
thru his speculations.
This statement was In sharp con-
trast to one issued earlier IN the day
by Assistant District Attorney Murphy
in which Mr.. Murphy said Lindsay
had broken down and sobbingly die
tated n confession that many OF the
charges against him were true. and
that he and his wife had discussed
suicide as possible way out OF their
difficulties.
All tho women who advanced him
money did so. Lindsay's statement de-
ciared. with u full understanding tha.
It was to be used for stock spctula-
tiou and all know, he added, tnat
their money had been lost honestly"
Notwithstanding that he felt he was
under no obligation to them. he said.
he has continually advanced thcm
money until tho greater part Of their
losses has been restored to them.
Supporting his contention he gsve
out a simple monthly payroll on
which the names OF eight of his so-
cusers appear as recipients OF sums
ranging from 500 to $500 and aggre-
eating $1,675.
Mrs. Lindsay. he said, n1tbo she
knew nothing of the merit OF tho
women's claims was willing to turn
over to n creditors committee the
handsome Lindsay estate at South
Nyack, n. y. which, with the fur
nishiugs, should bring nearly $780,
600.
Lindsay took UP each woman's
claims separately giving his version
in detail of the transactions and deny
ing vigorously the magnitude of the
sums of the women said they had
lost.
