She --she was nervous and in an awful hurry. She wanted a complete new outfit and she was going to give the clothes she had on to me"
 But who is she, Amy?" asked Kemp.
 "I-oh, you're going to think I'm crazy. and I'm afraid I've got my self in an awful mess." Amy, will you stop babbling and tell us?"
 T think she's Mrs. Joseph-thc widow who was on the yacht with you, Julia. Anyway, she dropped her card case and they were all

 It was at luncheon the next day that Julia said. You kissed Amy last night, Peter"

 Peter said he would remember that. And when they had driven out into the country he did remem- Der 1t, too. I'm going t1 ask you again, Julia. will you marry me?"

 "Only in that small cottage, Peter. That is, if you promise not to interest yourself in your clients daughters"

TIE STORY SO FAR

JULIA CRAIG, secretary tO GEORGE WOODFORD, lawyer is ambitions to become . night club aingsE. Because of this she quar- rels with PETER KEMP, young lawyer who is in leve with her.
 Julla shares an apartment with AAGX SANDERS.
 WeoAford gives . yacht party and asks Julia Co come as . sing ers. Others In the party include CENTRA LEE, dancer: MRS. JO- SEPH, widow; HUGO NASH and ROYTL NESBITT. They go to Evcrgreen Island, where Wood ! fora has . ledge.
 Julia meets TOM PAYSON. camping nearby. Woodford, Nash and Nesbitt go hunting and Nes- bltt is injured. The party leaves immediately to get him to doc- ter.
 Julia gets . job singing on TONY LATTA'S gambling ship. Later she is hired as the featured singer in SMITH GARLAND'S new night club. On the opening night she learns Payson k back ing the club:
 Nesbitfs dead body k found. Police question Julia and she Is held as . material witness. Pay son secures her release on bail and Peter Kemp offers to defend her.
 Peter and Julia 90 to Wood f0rd's home. BlufRing, Peter tells Woodford he has been through his private files, has secured in- eliminating evidence against him. Peter says, T want you to stop shielding the murderer of Nes- bitt Or did you do it yourself?" NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-12-07
CHAPTER XIV

Those papers," Woodford fal- tered. Tiff tell you about Nes- bitt will you see that I get them back?"
 'Yes," Kemp answered. And if you don't I'll see they go to the prosecuting attorney.
 Woodford sat down weakly in the hall chair. Precipitation lay damply in the folds of his face. It wasn't that I wanted to shield a murder. But I tried to keep 1t quiet on account of of Nesbitts parents, and = and certain busi- ness connections he had"
 T don't care about that" said Kemp quickly. T want to hear what you know about his death
 Woodford raised his eyes to meet the grim, determined face of Kemp. "It was Mrs. Jo- seph," he said at last. "She was irlsanely in love with him, ar ] she lnsw he planned to marry Cintra Lee"
 Where is she now? Do you know?"
 Woodford nodded. She's at tho Brookfield under the name of Leah Sorenson."
 Kemp waited to hear no more. Slipping on arm around Julia's waist, he hurried her from the apartment and down to his car at the curb. Julia saw that he was trembling violently. She too was weak from those few moments in Woodford's hallway.
 'sW-when were you in Wood lords office?" she asked as Kemp showed the car into gear.
 T wasn't. It was pure bluff but 1t worked. I've always Sus- pected Woodford of those cases I mentioned, and of lot more, too"
 "Why?"
 Because ordinary fees wouldn't account for the fabulous sums he's always spent. He brought the car to a careening stop before drug store. "I'll be right back" he told Julia, and ran inside the store. Through the wide doors she saw him go into the telephone booth and guessed that he was sending the police to Mrs. Jo- seph's apartment.
 T thought 1t wouldn't hurt to have the police in on this" he told Julia, resuming his place be- hind the wheel. "We1l go ahead -there isn't moment to lose. Woodford may have already tele- phoned her that we're coming. If we don't find her-and Woodford gets to his office and discovers was bluffing - we're lost"
 Kemp's car literally hurled through the traffic, ignoring stop lights and missing disaster by inches in almost every block. "Of course no police would stop us" Peter said through clenched teeth, when we could use them!"
 Julia held to the seat with both hands, too frightened to say any, thing. She was relieved when she saw a few blocks up the avenue the tall lighted sign which marked the Brookfield. Whether or not Peter saw 1t, his foot did not re- lease its preSsuer on the accelera- tor. They were almost abreast of the place before he damned on the brakes.

Music Is Read by Blind
by Raised Dots on Paper

The blind read music by means of a
series of dots embossedson stiff paper
touched with the fingertips. The sys-
tenn was developed by Louis Braille, in
1929. He was a Frenchman, blind at
three years of age, who became organ
list of a church in Paris. His system
was not adopted until 1850, about the
time of his death.
Notes and rests in the Braille sys-
tenn are indicated by different forma-
tons of series of six dots. 1t some
what resembles the earlier system of
figured bass in harmony. A key of ex-
PLANTATION is necessary to understand
the reading of music by this system.
1t was standardized in European coun-
tries in 1888, at an international con-
gress of the blind, in Cologne. The
first English textbook of the system
was published in 1900 and revised in
1902.
The chief difficulty in making it
available for all is the high cost of
enclosing the music. The National
Institute for the Blind has published
more than 1900 musical compositions
in Braille. This music has been made
available by loan library which sends
music all over Great Britain to respon-
sible persons.-Indianapo News.

Art Before Abraham

The pre-Abrahamite art of Ur of
the Chaldees takes us back 45 cen
turtles. Abraham was probably born in
Ur about 1000 B. c., and the first en-
ample of archaic Sumerian art has
been acquired by the British museum.
This is an agate amulet In the form
of a frog, which dates 800 years ear
lier. 1t is a new discovery so far as
its period is concerned, showing as
tOnishing ingenuity and delicacy of
workmanship. 1t was produced in that
remote age by rubbing grooves in the
hard stone with crushed quartz or cor
undum, and the white grain of the
stone has been skilfully used to shade
the body and to form eyes and hands.
1t is, in short, a specimen of delicate
sculpture which could not be excelled
even If equaled today, and goes to
show that civilization in western Asia
had reached high pitch long ages
before the history of the Hebrews is
reputed to have begun.-Tit-Bits Mag

Army and Navy Deserters
Get Into Plenty Trouble

The laws governing punishment for
desertion are different for the army
and for the navy. If person deserts
from the United States army when the
country is at war or in technical
state of war, he is always liable to
arrest, trial and punishment for the
offense. Trials for assertions that oe-
Cured between April 6, 1917, and
March 8, 1921, are not uncommon at
the present time. A statute limiting the
time within which an action can be
taken against an offender protects
peace-time deserters.
According to the articles of war,
notes a writer in the indianapolis
News, If a person deserts from the
army in time Of peace the statute of
limitations becomes effective three
years from the date of desertion, pro-
vided the deserter has been within the
reach of the military court. Any Pc
riod of time that the deserter is absent
from the jurisdiction of the military
court is deducted from the three-year
period. The United States Navy de-
partment says that If person deserts
from the naval service when the cOun-
try Is actually or technically at war
the statute of limitations becomes effec-
tive two years after the date on which
he was declared a deserter, that is
he is immune from trial and punish
ment two years after his desertion,
provided he was where the military
court could reach him by reasonable
diligence. If he is classed as peace
time deserter from the navy the statute
becomes an effective bar to trial two
years after the date of the expiration
Of the enlistment.
In time of war desertion from the
army or navy may bring sentence of
death. A peace-time deserter is usu-
ally dishonOrably discharged and SEN
fenced to a term of penal servitude.

Mechanics of an Eclipse
Simple. Scientist Saws

The mechanics of an eclipse is ex-
tremely simple. asserts a scientist in
the Montreal Herald. AS the moon
goes around the earth in a monthly
orbit there will be position in each
revolution when the earth will lie be-
tween the moon and the sun. AS all
light comes from the sun, there would
be an eclipse of the moon each month
if all three bodies were in the same
plane. However, the plane of the lu-
mar orbit makes a small angle with
the ecliptic, or plane of the earth's
orbit, and this angle is large enough
to carry the moon above or below the
earth's shadow in space on most lunar
revolutions. Ordinarily, therefore,
when the earth is between the moon
and sun, we have just the regular full
moon phase. AS the lunar orbital plane
odic manner, we find full moons which
occur when the moon is also passing
through the ecliptic plane. This pro-
duces an eclipse since the earth's shad-
ow is necessarily close to this plane
only.
Eclipses of the moon, even total
eclipses, do not have the scientific i'm
portance of total solar eclipses. They
reveal to our sight no important phe-
nomena which are otherwise unseen.
The most important observations which
astronomers can make at such times
are only for the purpose of checking
up the predicted and observed times.
This enables them to obtain more cor
rect values for the various factors en-
tering the mathematical relations rep
resenting the motions of the moon.
