"When you bring my change,
say I'm wanted on the Phone" he
whispered.
Selden turned back into the
room, where tankards and glasses
were raised to wish him luck. He
raised his own, and waited with
what patience he could for the girl
to return. With the congested
state of the bar, it took some min
utes, during which Selden had to
exchange courtesies with the
farmers.
''Your change, Mr.. Selden, and
you are wanted on the phone."
THANK you," he said quietly,
leaving. her tip on the tray and
rising with apologies. He would
not be long, he said.
The telephone was in the hall,
and Selden very carefully shut the
door leading to the bar and took
off the receiver.
He called up Paynton Manor,
and heard the slow slick tones Of
the native servant.
'Can I speak to Colonel Ora

ing trade in the last hour before
closing time. Reports of the
strange happenings at the Abbey
had brought strangers from Grin
fold and places further afield, and
there were newshawks come to get
a STORY for their papers. Selden
drew his car up a short distance
from the front entrance and
walked round to the back, going in
from the garden. A babel of talk
sounded from the bar, and Selden
caught a brief glimpse of the ex-
pugilist in his shirtsleeves, his
mighty arms barred, serving out
drinks, with the sweat Of his labor
covering his face.
Turning from this busy scene,
Selden entered the exclusive smOk-
ing room where he had first met
Colonel Graham. Here were few
of the most regular customers,
who looked up with annoyance at
the entry Of anyone to their sane
tum, but Selden was known by
sight, and they were satisfied.
The maid was busy here, as the
potman and even the chauffeur had
been roped in to serve at the main
bar and the billiards room.
The girl approached Selden, who,
to establish his footing, requested
her to take orders all round. The
talk was all Of the Abbey, and of
James the butler, who had sudden
ly become huge and monstrous
figure of crime, for arrest is in
variably taken for a proof of guilt
with such people. Tt appeared
that most of those present had al
ways thought he was a wrong
UNI, and expected that this was
not the first time that he had been
in the hands of the police. In fact,
not a shred of good was left to
James when they had finished with
him.
The girl returned with a huge
tray, far too heavy for her, and
Selden took it and passed the
drinks round. The girl was stand
ing at the doorway waiting, and
the detective gave her the tray,
and held out a 1O-shilling note.
His back was to the room, and the
door was half open./
"Have you any news. for me ?"
he whispered.
'Mrs. Thornton has gone up to

Although the budget provides funds

that each and every person on the

A man committed suicide by
diving into the Mississippi
River. Bill Nye said he knew
there was a woman at the bot
tom of it. So there is in this
Shawneetown river story. Mary
Long Whitmore, q clever archi-
tect and town-planner Of nearby
Metropolis, ILL.,, got up the plan
for a new, bang-up. tidy rat
proof town and sold it to the
Shawneetown folks.
The Illinois Department Of
Public Works is. helping out in
the financing, and townSmen are
pooling their own resources, with
space and housing allotmentS in
the new town based on amounts
turned in, but with a minimum
of decent living assured even the
poorest by the collective plan.
Plants will be built to fabricate
the houses. About 1,400 citizens
will make the mass trek to the
steel. tile and concrete Utopia-
for such it will be-after a cen.
tury of battling the muddy river
in waterlogged old houses.
In the old Russia, peasants
lived in village and went out
in the country to. till the fields.
In many ways, it was q highly
satisfactory system Of agricul-
ture. The drearinesS of the Rus
sian steppeS, no doubt, brought
this about. In this day, such Q
system would seem infinitely
more workable with an automo-
bile traversing in a few minutes
a full days jog for a horse or
bullock cart.
The large-Scale corporate
farming Of today is the begin
ming Of this change. When trans.
portation was slow and difficult,
towns had to be close to the
economic source. Ugly shackS
hung on the side Of a blackened,
riven mountain, in mining com.
munities, and still do, Of course.
There's no need for that, say
housing experts. You can al
ways find a comparative para
disc a short bus ride away.
Big cities have shown the dis
aSter Of too much Of q huddle.
Dreary villages, their economic
life Slapped by change, their
jewellers insane from loneliness
and boredom, prove the neces-
sity for a healthy folk life and
communal, life. England's "d1S-
tresSed areas" give elaborate evt-
dence of that. The automobile,
the wide range Of power dis
tribution, good roads and other
modern miracles provide man
a much wider choice Of locale
and new opportunities for adap-
tation and collective betterment.

took this correspondent aside on
the floor of the Senate at the
conclusion of the session and de-
clared that he, too, had watched
the effect of this terrific strain
and was worried for the mem
bers' health.
One outward sign Of the phys
ical pressure Of debate can be
seen on the Senate floor in any
debate. These men do not sling
Sledge hammers all day but
their gestures in debate range
far.
Senator Josiah Bailey smackS
the desk in front of him with
every emphatic point. And, he
doesn't pull his punches. Many
times he has knocked all the
skin off his knuckles and has
had to cover his hand with his
handkerchief to stop the flow
Of blood.
Senator Carter Glass. who
hits the desk openhanded on
the edge, split his palm severely
on one occasion.
Senator Sherman Minson's
characteristic gesture is to
fling his arms as wide as he
can reach.
Senator Burton K. Wheeler

gers and smacks his open hands

Senator Hiram Johnson
thrusts out his arm, index fin
ger pointing like rapier.
For hours and hours they do
this until the perSpiration rolls
and they sink exhausted but
still game.

That's the moment when even
the most patient Of waiting
wives yearns to THROW things!
The truth is that a man Just
forgetS a woman when she's out
of his sight, as he forgetS where
he's parked his pipe or left his
hat. He will leave her waiting
around for days and days while
he is absorbed in a business
deal, or a little summer flirta-
ton, or a golf tournament, or
a trip out Of town-and then
come back and expect to pick
up the friendship or the az
fair right where he left it.
There is an ancient joke that
a woman is never on time: she

The Egyptians did that on

It's happening sooner than
one would have thought. Shaw.
neetown, the oldest town in
Illinois, long a flood sufferer,
picks up all goods and gear and
scurrieS to high ground, three
miles away. But they don't
take the houses. or Man River
can have them if he wants
them.
They will build a model city,
with modern housing and bust
ness structures, parks and pub
lie buildings and dry,
light and airy. arranged for
space, comfort, convenience,
recreation and the rearing Of
happy children. Nothing like
that has ever happened before.
San Francisco, after the fire,
tried to do it, but didn't sue
coed. Daniel Hudson Burnham,
great New York architect who
designed the Flatiron Building,
worked out a magnificent plan
for rebuilding the city, with
parks and highways looped
around Telegraph Hill, with a
blend of utility and beauty in
the arrangement Of business
and residential structures.
It came near going through,
but the surge Of onruShing pri-
Vate interests was too great,
and they slammed up the same
old haphazard buildings, with
the same old block patterns.
Chicago and Baltimore, after
their devastating fires, did the
same thing, following the tradi-
tional checkerboard tradition,
and with no effort to turn the
disaster to account.
Even in the normal growth Of
American cities, city planning
never has amounted to much.
Our towns and cities grow like
coral reefs. The ant, biblical
symbol Of wisdom though he be,
is like that. Kick over an ant
hill and in a day or two they'll
build another in the same spot.
It may be, that riverwiSe old

Just a fraction of q millimeter

Automotive power and good
roads have given man marvellous
mobility. italian scientists say
the peasants are foolish to keep
on scratching out a meager liv.
ing on the heaving, SulphurouS
side of Vesuvius-picking a real
and not a figurative mountain
for the moment.
Not far off, there's better
land, safe and fertile, but pre-
viously too far from the market.
Modern transportation solves
that, and if the peasants had
more sense. they'd be spreading
