annie Dove" in DR.. Cheams clear
hand writing.
The note ran Dear Annie: We had
q telephone message In the night ex-
planning that Mrs. Cheams sister is
seriously i'll. So I am motoring her
up 70 Durham. Please tell anyone who
phones, or calls. that shah not be
back till late tonight, II then. Yours
truly. Randall Cheam"
All the strange sounds she had heard
in the night were now explained The
miSsus was evidently very fond Of her
sister. and had uttered that fearful
scream and moan on receiving that
bad news Annie couldn't help feeling
glad that she would not be scolded as
q lie-abed. and that a nice long day,
with her dear little Mark, lay before
her.
She put kettle on the fire. and took
IN the milk from outside the door
which gave into the yard. The gates,
opening on q side street. were wide
open, and on the dusty stone pave
ment were the marks Of the doctors
car.
AS she was drinking her cup Of tea,
she warmed some milk for Mark. Why
shouldn't she give the child his bath
in the big bath this morning? This
was his special treat, forbidden by
his mother allowed by his father
Having gone upstairs with the child's
cup OF milk held In her right hand,
with her left hand she turned the
handle OF the bathroom door To her
surprise, the door did not open. 1t had
evidently been locked from the outside,
and the key taken away.
She Is nasty thingl" muttered the
girl TO herself. On two previous oc-
casions Mrs. Cheam had locked the
bathroom door for some hours. Once
when she had left q real lace dress
her most precious possession-tol
soak in soapy water, and another time
when she had been determined to pre-
big bath. On that occasion. too, she
had gone out for the day.
A little later Annie was downstairs
again, with Mark trotting at her heels. /
She couldn't do the bedrooms till the
afternoon, for soon the telephone and
the front door bell would be ringing |
necessarily. So she started with the
white parlor. and then there came over
her a feeling OF uneaSe, for the drawer
in the table at which Mrs Cheam sat
and wrote the few letters she did write, 4
was wide open, and everything in It, /
including the envelopes and letters
which their owner kept tidily docketed. |
had been tossed about.
1t was plain that having failed TO
find what he was seeking In the oak
chest, the doctor, while his wife was
dressing, had made yet another hurried
to find the letter she had
tainted him with having written con-
corning his friendship with the pretty
widow, Mrs. Dingle.
All that morning, in The Red House,
the telephone rang again and again,
and in between came the callers at the
door. Some Of them were quite dis
agreeable, for they seemed to think
i q monstrous thing that the doctor
should have gone away and left them
with their aches and pains, Just be-
cause his sister-in-law had fallen I'll. :

ARYAN SUPREMACY MYTH
The doctrine Of Aryan suprem-

which is only part of the "shudder
complex" employed by dictators
to spur their subjects into action.
There is no scientific evidence
to prove that human progress has
evolved more from one anthropo-
logical type than from another, he
asserted.
"Any nation or people" de-
clared Sir Richard, (which sepa-
rates itself from the rest of the
world in the name of race or
religion and cultivates ideals Of
conquest by force, in order to
assert its claims is not assisting
