CHAPTER xxx.

I'D have known you for a detective
anywhere"
Ethel stood in the doorway Of the
yine-covered SummerhouSe at the gar
den end of the pergola, to which she
had conducted Peter and surveyed nm
with respectful ardor.
Peter cast a diSapproving eye at the
rose tendrilS thruSting their way here
and there through the lattice OF the
walls: he had an idea that he would
never cease to regard roses as the most
vicious and hostile of floral specimens.
That. of course, is because you know
about detectives" he said. Come III
and sit down, where We won't be seen.
Ethel perched herself on the extreme
edge of one of the small iron chairs
which. with a little green-painted tea
table, furnished the interior.
"Oh, there's nobody now who uses
this place." she assured him. I've
always adored detective stories, but
never thought-neyer in the world
that I'd ever have a chance to be part
of a real one, not even after Mrs. ELS
worth disappeared. 1t didn't seem a
bit like a story somehow. Everything
went on Just about as usual. / know
DR.. Cavanaugh's aWfully grand, but he
doesn't act one bit like real Sleuth,
does he?"
He conceals his talents" Peter said
solemnly.
"Do you work with the police?"
Ethel's hands were claSped tightly in
her lap and her face was round BEAM
ing moon of excitement.
I'm with but not of them"
With an air of great caution Peter
flashed the shield of his police press
L. a1-iIt iatn q
sort of special deputy private investiga-
tor" he said with dignity. Il picked
you out to help me because your read
ing has given you certain familiarity
with detective methods. But first /
must ask you to swear absolute secrecy"
What do you want me to swear on?"
Ethel gasped.
What have you got?" Peter inquired
practically. The swearing was an in
Spiration of the moment and he had
quite forgotten that, to be properly
ceremonious, it must be done "on"
7 don't kncV as I've rightly got
anything on me-"
Never mind. This will do" Peter
unpinned the police badge from his
sweater and held it, his thumb con-
cealing the embossed word, Press" in
the palm of his hand. This is
symbol of the majesty of the law he
announced Sonorously. Nov then-'the-
truth-the- -whole-truth- nd-nothing- but
e-truth-so-help-yo God" He ratified
of the formula as he had heard the
bailiff deliver it hundred times in
court.
II do" Ethel responded fervently.
We'll then, let's get down to cases
Did man. probably fairly young man
and not very well dressed, ever come
around to see Mrs. Ellsworth"
mo, sir, not that I remember"
Peters face fell. Was it going to be
no good, after all?
Not a small dark man, who insisted
on seeing Mrs. Ellsworth personally?"
Ethel sat moment in silent concen-
tration.
"Oh!" Her face lighted with sud-
den recollection. He wasn't very dark,
though"
Never mind that. 1t was just a

noticed the dust because he said, I'm
staying at the auto camp grounds for
the present, and I'm not going away till
see her. And 1 thought he must be
travelling about the country, but he'd
better brush up little. even If he was
camping out if he expected to sell
anything"
"You heard him say that?" Peter
leaped to his feet so suddenly that Ethel
shrank back startled.
"Oh, sir, /"
Nov don't get scared. You're doing
splendidly. 1 couldn't do better myself.
What sort of looking man was he?"
He was just an ordinary kind OF
man. Not very big--not as tall as Mrs.
Kane. He was kind of thin looking, as
If he'd been sick or something"
Peter thought this over, chewing the
stem of his pipe and longing with all his
soul for one of his familiar cigarettes.
So far he had got exactly nowhere.
He knew that David Orme had called
at the Ellsworth hOuSe-which he had
known already-with the additional in
formation that he had stopped at the
automobile camp grounds. But David
Orme, SO, far as the description went
might be any one of thousands. Peter
might pass him dozen times, meet him
face to face on the streets, without a
chance of recognizing him.

The Workers (Communist) Party
must regard as one of its most i'm
portant tasks in the coming cleo
tons the campaign to win the allegi-
ance of the workingclass women,
who constitute potential and actual
political force of tremendous sig
nificance in the revolutionary move
ment. Our Party must expose the
capitalist parties and the meaning
of their present election manoeuvres
not only as concerns the women
workers, but in relation to the en-
tire working class of which women
are a part. We must expose also
the treachery of the petty-bourgeois
socialist party, which in its national
platform has not a single word to
say about the working women.
All possible support must be
rallied for the Communist program
and Communist candidates among
women workers in organized and
unorganized shops and in trade
unions, and among workingclass
housewives and m theirs in
every city. Throughout the coun-
try every left wing progressive or
ganization must mobilize it's women

members for the Communist cleo
ton campaign.
So, also, must the United Coun-
ellis of Working Women, and in New
York, Detroit, Boston, Chicago, the
Working Women's declarations, be
drawn into the movement to make
the working women more effective
participants in the struggle against
capitalism-a struggle which can
express itself in the elections only
in the support of the Workers
(Communist) Party.
To vote for capitalist candidates
means, for the women workers, to
vote for long hours, starvation
wages, the continuation of the ex-
ploitation and oppression of the
working class.
To vote for the Communist stand
ard bearers means to support the
immediate fight for adequate pro-
lection and better conditions for
working women.
More than that--it means to sup
port the struggle for the abolition
of the capitalist system. For only
Communist society can lift the
double burden of housekeeping and
factory work from the woman of
the working class, and give her full

hoped off the train and ambled into
the Hoover headquarters. Approach
ing a young man who was holding
down the club room, the news
seeker asked if the officers of the
