IT'S words broke off as he turned
L L the key in the lock. The door

Bannister saw a living room,
longer than it was wide, with three
windows at the end. There was an
attractive dark rug on the floor,
attractive, figured draperies at the
windows. Aside from these details
the room was completely in dis
order
A desk, standing before the win

at all angles, one Of them upturned.
Pillows from the davenport had
fallen to the floor. Dirt had been
tramped into the carpet and there
were several places where ashes had
been spilled.

expected, of course. The photo

record of the appearance of the

Bannister nodded. He heard the
door close behind him as he moved
forward, hating in the entrance to
the bedroom.
1t was smaller than the other
room and it, too, had been complete
ly diSordered. A dark, brownish
stain on the gray carpet told its
unmistakable story. Bannister knelt
to inspect the stain.
Even before he heard a sound he
was aware of the presence behind
him. There was no time for &C

Banisters forehead; he would have
turned but he could not. Then
something landed on his back.

EARLY SETTLER FOUND
 DEAD IN TROLLING BOAT

Archie Teal, believed to have been about "A years old, was found dead in the cabin of his trolling boat T1095 at Ketchikan. Heart trouble is given as the cause of his death.

Prior to that time he was engaged in cod fishing in the Boring sea, out of Puget sound ports. He had been inactive in deep sea fishing for the past eight years, although he maintained his membership in the fishermen's union until two years ago.

LET CAMERA TALK

The film, adapted from Somer- set Maugham's well-known novel, appeals to Howard, he said, for this very scarcity of talk as well as for it's qualities as story. And yet Leslie Towards greatest film successes have been in photo graphed stage plays-"The Animal Kingdom" and Berkeley Square outstandingly.
 An enthusiastic camera student
 he is scarcely ever without his own little black box and he has a huge collection of lens studies Towards idea is that the movies should swing away from the stage, and let the camera tell it's stories in the main.
 His own interest in photog- raphy long since has embraced the motion picture, and even now he is considering the filming of a sort of miniature movie-for his own amusement-in which panto- mime would predominate if not serve as the only medium of ex- precision. In other words, the talkie star would like to make a silent picture!

No more beerl A band played "Ach du Liever Au- gusine." two bartenders who an hour before had been dishing up the real thing folded their aprons and wiped tears from their eyes and foam from their mustaches. A mournful crowd looked on as cases and barrels of beer, steins and free lunch were loaded on to a truck.
 NO more beer" sighed Buddy Rogers. Gosh, I could have used stein or two for lunch" But
 It really isn't as bad as it sounds, for the passing of beer at the Fox studio was only in a movie-a scene in the Fox picture Best of Enemies" depicting the advent of prohibition. But there is one con- solation. The intervening fourteen years pass in a matter Of hours, and the company drinks beer again as it's return is visualized for the screen.

SOAP AND WATER PERFORM
 UNUSUAL CLEANING TASKS

There's nothing novel about soap and water, but housework and many unusual tasks it will perform more satisfactorily than ready-made eleanSers.
 Cleaning brushes, for example, may be washed frequently in soap and water. Dingy- looking velour powder puffs, after a thorough washing, make excellent polishing cloths for knives. Hot water and plenty of soapsuds will clean the breadbox, but it must be com pletely dry before the bread is re- placed.

He even went over to the rack and
lifted and hefted several bats before
he finally settled down to watch the
game. The Blues made one run at
the end of the sixth.
Higgins held the Butchers down
and the score was three to one when
the Blues went up for their half of
the seventh. Higgins was the first
man up and he singled cleanly over

knocked out a tWo-bagger which put
Higgins on third. Joie Brown was

That's base ball." Pop said to

Larry took it without a word, as he
knew he deserved some riding from
Pop. He still felt very bitter about
his tumble, particularly since he had
made so few errors.
Horan was up next and struck out,
both runners holding their bases.

as it should have been. Schatz was

1t was q very solemn procession
which came down the line protected
by the police. Dirkin was on a
stretcher. Hansen and the doctor
walked in front and Pop and Rawlins,
the Chicago manager, brought up the
rear.
A bell changed and q siren screamed
as an ambulance tore onto the field
