terrace and we, both thought MT Samuels should have it.
 Tt was what you have been look ing for,' Mrs. Parados said dis passionately.
 Flique had been lingering the green stones of the pendant with a singular avidity of touch. AS Mrs Parados said this he spread it out on his palm. My heart jumped.
 One of the green stones was missing.
 I glanced at Mrs. Parados. Her eyes were riveted on Fliques face. She seemed to be crouching be- hind her defenses. Was this the end?
 We must go back to the begin ming, Flique," Samuels went on with a touch of his old arrogance. ''The price tag and that pendant are the fundamental clews. When we know who left the tag in Parados' hand, I'll be ready to call it a day"
 Flique seemed surprised. Mon dieul" he exclaimed, you do not know that?"
 His face became Stern-sterner than had eyer seen it and he looked straight at Mrs. Parados.
 Madame shall tell us," he said. This pendant is hers.' Copyright, 1930, William Morrow

to the present period. a A Memorial Day has been given us by the sacrifice of our Nations dead,' said Rev. Bauer. Our dem ocracy, our freedom, established in blood, have been purchased lat the cost of our soldier and sailor dead and it is fitting that we honor them to the extent of our entire ability. But praise is also due other great men some of them gone. and some still living, who by their dis coveries and inventions, through innumerable sacrifices have done such wonders for us in the way of living" eHtfis Pasteur, Edison and Ford were some of those mentioned by Rev Bauer. They are martyrs of in- dustry.p he said. And further, thert are the men who preach and teacl high ideals to the end that wt may become better men and wom- en. They are entitled to commem- oration. There are the men of busi- nesses and professions, and lastly, but of greater importance, the great industrial army, the men of com mon toll, they are patriots, for, they are fig hting the great battle against nature"
 Rev. Bauer also paid tribute to the pioneers of Alaska saying that it was through their work, that Alaskans are in the different local ities today paying homage.
 "The heart of Christianity is the heart of sacrifice" said Rev, Bauer in closing his address
 Mayor Kilburn made a few ap- propriate remarks by way of open ing the program. A song, "Tenting Tonight" was sung by the girls chorus Betty Sey followed with the recitation, Tn Flanders Field" and Mrs. Goetz sang, Lay My Head Beneath Rose" 8@Keep the Home Fires Burning" was next sung by the. Girls chorus, and Mrs. R. R. Brown followed with piano solo. Then Rev. Bauer delivered his ad- dress and the audience sang, America" in closing.
 Following the indoor program, a line of march was formed by the children, and wemens club, Odd Fellows, and Eagles, going first to the wharf and then to the ceme- tery to decorate the graves.
 Special ceremonies were held as the last rites for the late Julius Jensen, pioneer of Douglas and member of local Orders Odd Fellows and Eagles, whose ashes were di- vided between the two cemeteries of the two Orders. rs ,4

THE MISSING STONE


 After Caroline went up to her room I found myself with two hours on my hands before dinner. The ruin of the little village had depressed our spirits and it had left me in restless mood. Ha t
 I searched about the place for Flique. The little man was not to be found, so I set off around The Gut, intending to inflict myself upon Professor Johns. 8
 By the time I reached the fort it was dark. I heard voices and a moment later found Flique and Johns chatting in front of the tower door. Flique had a game bag slung over his shoulder and a small rifle in his hand,
 Monsieur has the melancholy look" he remarked facetiously as I drew near. Has la petite demoi- selle abandoned him?"
 "Why the rifle?' I inquired.
 Flioue chuckled. That excellent Lum We promised me a fried rab- bit for breakfast if I should bring one to him" 4t
 And you got one?'
 Fliuue patted the game bag, the flap of which was strapped down.
 T am an excellent shot, mon sieur." he said. "Lum We assured me the fat ones lived over here.'
 Probably they do," I said, grin ming. Professor Johns keeps a let tuce patch for them"
 "M. le Professor does not approve of my hunt" Flique chuckled. "Is 1t not so, monsieur?"
 T do not approve of taking hie unless it can be avoided Profes- sor Johns answered. But am not a crank. I believe man has a right to please himself
 "A wise word, that. It is all very well. no doubt, this passion for the birds and the fishes and the rab- bits. but man must eat, and. to eat he must kill" Flique patted his nlump stomach. Your animals kill, do they not?"
 "They are as nature made them, . Professor Johns replied. "As a sci enlist, accept the cruelty of na- ture as necessary to the continual tion of life; as human being, l deny it.
 Monsieur is a philosopher" said Flique. But are we not as we are made, yes-saint and assassin?"
 You mean nothing can change us?" Professor Johns said thought fully. I'm not so sure Of that, Parados. now-could anything have changed him? I, doubt it. But what about the. one. who killed nm? Parados blighted every personality he touched. Might not the seed of murder in the heart of the one who killed him have been planted there by Parados himself?"
 Monsieur intrigues me-" Flique murmured. But will not the seed of murder that is planted in the -um-essentially good heart die because there is no-um-that word M. l'Antiquaire?" Elique demanded sharply apgss,.- i1us sn
 "Nourishment for it, suggested
 Monsieur did, it appears, but he stuck to, his guns. n
 And if the seed. brings, its own nourishment, M Flique = " n then?" Professor . Johns took oil his glasses. We who have known Parados over period of years-his wife, myself, Miss Celia, MT, An nersley, Miss Jahries, average men and women, all of us-do you think Parados did not touch us with his evil genius? Monsieur, predict that when you put your hand on the one who killed Parados and Grainger, it will be upon one oi our own group"
