For three hours nothing happened. 1t

whistled about the headstones, and Izzy's
teeth began to chatter as he began to re-
member all the ghost stories Of his boy.

the fence and 60 home, when he heard
footsteps ringing along the sidewalk in
the distance.
He strained his eyes and distinguished
two men, each carrying heavy bundle.
They stopped at the house and climbed
the stairs, rapping three times at the door.
A long line Of yellow light appeared and
Izzy knew that the cautious inmate had
opened the door Just one inch.
We've brought the yeast" whispered
one of the men at the door. His voice was
not sufficiently guarded to prevent the in

and the bolt rasped into place Icy
scrabbled over the iron fence and started
back to town for his assistant, Moe Smith,
and search warrant.
But still Icy had no legal reason to
break into the house. Anybody has per-
feet right to buy all the yeast they want
More evidence than that was needed. II
was up to Izzy and Moe to prove their
suspicious beyond the shadow OF doubt
and then to raid the place and arrest the
offenders.

dug a few feet into the ground, two more
were started. until six graves, partly dug
stretched along the cemetery fence.
With each new grave the man on the
steps across the street showed more signs
of interest. He called someone from
within the house and pointed at the fur
rows OF EARTH A third person was called
and all three stared in wonder.
At last he crossed the street and peerec
in through the iron railing. Icy and Moe
pretended not to notice the attention they
attracted.
How many more have we got to dig?
Moe called over from his grave.
Eleven said Icy, without looking up.
The bootlegger's hair stood on end.
ELEVEN more!" he shouted did some-
body blow up hotel?"
Icy dropped his shovel and filled his
pipe thoughtfully.
"It does seem peculiar" he admitted

"You said something" agreed Moe. I'D

Of the real stuff
The man on the othe: side OF the fence
looked cautiously around to be sure no one
was listening. He hesitated and then
winked mysteriously.
Drop over to the house when you get
through work." he suggested. Maybe
can fix you up"
Izzy and Moe expressed their gratitude
with the greatest enthusiasm and pitched
into their grave digging for all they were
worth. When It became dark they stacked
their tools in the superintendent's office
and strolled over to the bootlegger's home
The bootlegger greeted them cordially
and introduced them to the other members
of the firm as the hard working grave
diggers from across the street. At Izzy's
suggestion the party adjourned to the
kitchen where the revenue men bought the
first--and last-round for the house. Ons

before the startled bootlegSsrs knew what
was going on he had reached into the

prisoners, tzzy kicked in padlocked door

children did their part we'll. Credit
is due the program committee for
their efforts in training the little
folks.
Xhe year has grown old; we have
come to its close, next Sunday we
shall bid it adieu. No doubt many
OF us have been disappointed with the
result of the year, we have failed to
reach our goal. but let us not blame
the year. Many of us have never
learned the divine rule of living, we
have made the material fundamental
and the spiritual incidentals, Jesus
reversed this order, and unless we
follow His rule, every year, then life
its self will be disappointment.
Its get our bearings before the year
closes SO as to be able to begin the
new one on a right basis.
The preaching services next Sun
day morning will be used for the
benefit OF the Sunday school teachers
and officers for the coming year. c.
