| She continued her explorations
which disclosed three more bedrooms,
each with it's own bath-one decorated
in green, one in orchid, and one in pale
yellow. I'm lucky there aren't any
guests in the house she thought
thankfully, finding nothing but unoc-
cupied rooms. I'D hate to run into
somebody staying right in the place.
Well, I'll go back to my BOULDER and
see if can dig up any more news Of
what the charming Frills has been per-
petrating. Wish | could discover what
the Gate is and how long it has been
since I | left Philadelphia.
She sat down en- the chair at the
desk again and picked up one of the
letters. The postmark on the first was
tco blurred to decipher, but the second
one was clearly stamped. She stared at
it bewildered, sudden feeling of faint
ness seizing her, why, | left Phil

:. Oh, it can't he possible! April

all that time? Oh, / can't understand

:. Oh dear. . Oh dear. i. :"
Suddenly her overweight nerves
Igave way. and slipping to her knees ir
front OF the couch, Joyce buried her
face in her arms and began to sot
desperately, terror and loneliness pos
sessing her entirely.
When Jeyce awoke, she lay for some
moments collecting her thoughts.
| So it had not been a dream. 1t was
something actual and inescapable which
she had TO face.
j She sat up on the couch, wide awake
now, and soterly tried to decide what
to co next. AS she stared about the
room, she realized that the sun was nc
longer SHINING in. How long ha,! sh,
slept? There was no clock in the rccm
She remembered having seen, however
among the contents of the blue leather
case ON the dressing table small dia-
m2nd-set wrist watch. Returning to the
bedroom, she caught sight CT herself
in the mirror. Her dress was badly
rutnpled, her hair stood up in curly
confusion and her face was streake-
from the tears she had shed.

She pulled the crurnrlet dress eve
her heal and went to the closet dool
! to pick out something else to wear
when, suddenly, she heard voices down
stairs. Stopping short. she tiptoed soft

speak to her? Tell her it's Kate Bel

Sorry Mrs. Belmain, but Mrs

not to be disturbed"
"Oh, we'll, I'll cali again later.

That must be I.aurine The voice
moved nearer as if its owner were ap-
preaching the stairs. Joyce, in panic,
looked wildly about for some escape

She thought of locking the door. Then,
afraid to delay another second, she
dashed out to the sleeping porch, pulled
down the covers Of the neatlymade
bed, and slid between the sheets. With

. ltried to compose hersel! into a state
. where she could breathe quietly.
Firm steps sounded approaching the
door, and a voice said. "Frills Where
are you? /. Obi" The voice trailed
off into soft murmur as the speaker
evidently discovered the sleeping form
In the bed.
| The caller stood quietly by the bed
side for such a long time that Joyce
grew nervous. Why didn't the woman
90 away? Couldn't she see that Frills
was asleep? Or did she guess that she
was shamming?
Just as she felt that she could not
stand it a minute longer, and must
either giggle or choke. she heard her
unseen caller depart.
Thank goodness! My, I'm

got up cautiously, creeping into the
room to listen to what harpene! DOWN

Finally, however, the front door opened
and closed.
So rested and SO much more confident
did she find herself that she decided to
Igo downstairs, risking the meeting with
any callers who might appear.
Roxie was by enc of the windows

'Why, of course, ma'am,' replied
Roxie promptly, 'wcull you like a

"Tea, please" Tke'very thought was

"Oh, sandwiches, please. I'm SO hum

uncomfortably convinced that Frills
never asked fer anything in this apol-

Yes, ma am. Will you have it out
on the terrace or ny in your room !"
| Joyce decided hastily that she would
take chance. "On the terrace. please"
She enjoyed the food almost more
than her breakfast, rejecting with half
ashamed amusement that her appetite
was good in spite of the shock Of
awalsing to find herself Mrs. Neil Pack

land, if conditiens there became unbearable, and to settle some where in the grant.
 But there is nothing to show that the patent was ever issued, though there is no doubt that the grantees-Lord Say and Sele, Lord Brooke, Richard Saltonstall, John Pym, John Hampden and others and many in Connecticut, pro- foundly believed in the legality of the title"
 Such a situation must lead to in- vestigation and presently "the agents of the patentces called upon the emigrants to know by wha: right they were taking up land there an ddemanded that they &C., knowledge the titleof the patentecE and their governor, winthrop. Jr, whom they had recently appointed fo ra year."
 The condition was strengthened out but Miss Deming suggests 1t Is interesting to note that Con- nececut had no governor until af- ter the issue of the fundamental orders in 1639." It was then that Each town elected townsmen. af- terward called selcctmen, to look after the business of each pianta- tion."
 The original plan of government Miss Deming goes on to say, pro- vided that "the governor was to he elected yearly from among the magistrates. had to be church member, and could not be re-elect- ed until another had been chosen and served"
 "The general court could make and repeal laws, levy rates, admit freemen, appoint officials, control grants-at-lar of land, and pro- vide for defense.
 "The governor might cast a vote in case of tie, but he had no right to veto."
 In her conclusion of the study of the settlement of Connecticut Mis- Deming declares: While Con- nectlcut's life flowed smoothly on the surface 1t was in a constant state of agitation beneath, in the eqffort to fit together into har- monious whole the thousands of pieces of landed territory and to satisfy, justly and equally, the claims of rival and warning period complaints of absentee parties"
 All this was due to the fact that all through Connecticut's colonial proprietors. land pirates, engross- CTS, and monopolists filled the air"
 Connecticut had a problem that was an abiding one as long as land remained ungranted either in the towns or in the colony. and that was nearly down to the time of the Revolution"
 "A study of the conditions and circumstances under which the towns of Connecticut were settled offers q rare opportunity to under- stand the people and to obtain an insight into their relations with each other"

FRANCE FINDS
 GAS RESOURCES
Drive Started Favoring Utilizing Natural Means
 for Heating

Paris (UP)--Recent discovery of vast deposits of natural gas'i in the region of Etang do Berre, snean Marseilles, has led to an organ- ized drive throughout France in favor of utilizing this natural re- source for heating and lighting and other uses for which it is prac- ticable.
 Since certain excavations have been made, 1t is estimated that millions of ocubic meters of natural gas are escaping each day, and that France Is losing an important part of its economic wealth, which which easily could be harnessed.
 Despite this existence of natur- al gas in France, a considerable quantity is imported from America. and 1t is pointed out that the American company not only sells the gas, but controls and operates the carriers in which the gas ia contained, and at . price that is far. higher than any similar local development would charge.
 It is reported that the American furnishers of gas already have at- tempted to get control of the gas deposits near Marseilles, either to suppress competition, or to devel- op the field. Certain newspapers and deputies have begun to agitate public opnion in favor of some ma. tional scheme by which this nat ural gas could be turned into a competitive utility against the im- ported American gas.
