Whatever may be said for the Wis

that 1t forces an employer to stabilize
Jobs for the men he employs-the
old-line unemployment insurance CO.
horts say it is lust compulsory saw
ing" for the individual workers, and
carries very little social or group
significance.
Over this point the debate wakes
hot. Books and pamphlets have been
written on all sides of the question,
for it involves more points than q
porcupine has quills.
First of all, the advocates Of unem-
ployment insurance cite the countries
that have compulsory insurance. They
are Australia, Austria, Bulgaria, Ger
many, Great Britain and Northern
Ireland, the Irish Free State, Italy,
Poland and IS cantons in Switzerland.
Then they take out the Illuminating
features of the acts. In Great Britain,
for instance, the employees contribute
to the general fund. It is said that

ment insurance scheme have never
received any benefits, which means

trail, that night when we real
lied for the first time that this
very murderer was still loose in
our midst and still intent on
killing.
The day began with a warm
foggy morning. Hour after hour
the barometer dropped steadily
and late in the afternoon the
elements broke loose in un'
leashed fury. That storm-like
the Paige case-has gone down
in history.
~-%eSWas a memorable night-a
A. VT fit for murder to stalk
abfoad!
Eight o'clock had been set aside
for the reconstruction of the
crime on the old Paige estate.
I put this chapter Of the Paige
case on paper with a certain de-
gree of hesitation.
I knew exactly what had
prompted Captain Andy to take
this singular action. In his
mind there was still the faint
hope that Kirk Judson might be
wrong-that the police depart
ment might still catch the real
murderer-that, by some grace
of God, Tim Stokes might actu-
ally be telling the truth. And
there was just the chance that
an exhaustive reeXamintion and
search, in the light Of Tins
yarn, might uncover something.
The time set was eight and it
lacked only a few minutes Of
that hour when I parked my
flivver and arrived, wet and
dripping and chilled through,
upon the front porch of the
Paige house. The place looked
black and silent except for a
light in the library and a dim
one in the hall.
MacNalley was in his custom
ary place at the door. He
greeted me cordially and held
the door open.
I went in with a swirl Of wind
and rain.

For them the interview was at

it was just beginning.
And then followed the real
grilling-hours and hours of it.
It lasted all that night and

it was always the same. Its
final form varied not an iota

"It's so silly. You can't pos

"You don't mean it! I can't

The Girls Thrill At The Gay
Party
In a gay flutter she led him
back to the dance. Kathie
caught her arm for a rapt:
isn't it thrilling! I'm having
the time Of my life. You look
wonderful"
Pippin closed her eyes on the
sweet intoxication. Such excite
ment! Ensign Lodge, sweeping
her down the deck in a romping
quick step, put his lips close to
her ear.
Don't you ever kiss them?
You wouldn't be that Stingy."
She gave a sparkling laugh:
you see, I'm young. Mother
thinks I should be innocent"
Great heavens, you can't be
THAT young!"
"Oh-you think 10 or IL is
long enough for abstinence? Or
when should a young lady lose
innocence?"
How old ARE you?"
I'm my seventeenth year."
Good Lord! I thought you
were 10 anyway. I guess mother
DOES know best"
She found his crinkly brown
eyes meeting and wooing hers.
He said, so that her heart
flushed:
"You disobey, though, don't
you? Once in a while? You
wouldn't send me away to be
lost on the briny deep without
one joy to take to heaven for
remembrance"
It was jubliant, like that
dancing down rainbows.

she had just met him: "Oh,

do besides fighting and killing.

thing you want. Look!"
He pointed to a moon Of cop
per fire, now rising from the
brown Berkeley hills. He let
his hand drift back slowly
across Pippin'S hair. She was
startled.
Then he said with strange
sound, like a caught breath:
You're beautiful. Everything
about you. I've never seen such
hair. Nor such eyes. So blue.
Like a piece of the sky. You're
the prettiest girl I've ever
looked at"
Pippin Refuses to Kiss the
Ensign
He wanted to kiss her. His
face lowered to hers. She
looked, fascinated, into his
flushed. pleading eyes.
"No-don't."
"Oh, please"
I'LL have to go inside if you
do, and it's so sweet out here"
She shook back her head,
brushing aside the momentary
spell of his nearnesS and desire.
His arm relaxed but he contin-
ued to stare in her face. He
said, eager:
1T wouldn't hurt. I may
never meet girl like you again.

I S'poSe. To think Of it! But
stick around a bit longer, Tim

$50 we smoked a couple more
cigarettes without so much as q
sound coming from the second
floor. We have another long
dull period. All Of a sudden 7
hears q car coming up the
drive. It's him. I says. We
better beat it,
Then we hears the man up
stairs come rushing down, run
ming for dear life. Sort Of
caught he was, you see. He
gets in the hallway and we can
hear the gentleman put his key
in the lock. So the first gentle
mani don't know who he
was, sir, seeing that the front
way is barred, turns and runs
down the hall and straight
down the cellar steps.
Scared to death we was, sir,
lilly and I. No time to
run and sure we were going to
be caught!"
"You can laugh all you want,
Cap" he said, "but that's the
truth, so help me God! That

the cellar and when he sow
how dark it was. he struck a
couple of matches and beat it
as fast as his legs would take
him through the very window

to follow him when we heard
