CHAPTER VII

:; Well, I must say that things
looked rather bad for Mrs. Car
rington the next morning. Even
my mother pursed her lips when
dad read about her in the morn
ing paper. OF course, 1 had said
nothing about it to the family
the night before as I couldn't be-
tray the trust the inspector seemed
to have in me. I do not know
when anything has thrilled me so
much as to think a big, important
detective had confided in me, as
1t we're.
even resisted the impulse to
tell the kids at school about it,
although it was a struggle, espe-
cially when Helen assumed the
''I-told-you-so" attitude about Mrs.
Darlington. Most of the girls
thought her disappearance settled
everything; they were ready right
then to sentence her. But I had
learned from my brief contact
with the detective methods of the
inspector not to be sure on mere
appearances.
"I don't think" I said, "that
her disappearing shows she is
guilty. It might be that she was
just mad at George for being
away all day Sunday"
"And mad at Connie for keep
ing him." added Helen. Don't
forget that she had a pretty good
idea where he was after talking
to Connie the week before"
Maybe she even followed him
to st. Joseph" exclaimed Patsy.
well, if she were so murderous,
why did she wait until Thursday
night to kill her then?" AS I
asked the question, 1 felt pretty
triumphant.
Helen spoiled it by saying, per
haps she's the kind of person who
doesn't act impulsively, but broods
over things until she gets kind of
crazy ABOUT them. This is what I
think happened: Mrs. Darlington
was furious when she left Connie
after their row, but she had long
way to drive, since they live in Bur-
lingame; so by the time she reached
home, she decided to see what ef-
feet her visit would have before
she pounced on George. But Sun
v day he left her again for the whole
day practically, and she made up
4 her mind to find out about it. OF
course, she probably had to take
, the train, as he had the car. She
may not have arrived here until
after dark. Perhaps she went to
the cafe across the street from

We appreciate what the Americans are
doing for St. Croix, but a people of our cul-
ture cannot accept with graceful bow and
"thank you, sir" such remarks as those
from Secretary Ickes, as: We have spent
two million dollars, giving your people
work, and then you want to tax us. 1t is
silly of you to even think that way. We
had better pull out of the island.
The Danish people set up a national
bank in these islands with 81 ,000,000O0
capital. They built three sugar factories
and cultivated large areas of land in sugar
cane. They set up a cotten-gin at Est.
Longford and cultivated the eastend estates
extensively in cotton. They gave us good
experiment station with British genius at
the head, DR.. Long6eld Smith who at this
station developed and gave the sugar pro-
ducing world the wonderful sugar cane
known as S. G 12-4 which brought millions
of dollars to Puerto Rican cane growers.
Thoroughbred animals were introduced,
thus improving the breed of cattle, horses
and mules on the island and they did much
more.
They paid taxes on their land, their horses
and dogs. repaired their roads, and paid
every tax that the municipality imposed.
We do not know of an instance when a
high Danish official made any statement
tending to make the people feel that they
were burden to the Danes and pitiable
objects of charity. Man ought to live fer
