Then, suddenly, he roared: "Cops!
Men in khaki uniforms darted from

Larry's head struck seat iron and
again sparks fiared before his eyes;
but he kept his grip on Sleepy and the
machine gun. He heard the mans
breath whistle out at the pressure of
his arm
Duke was firing at random, and
from the outside smattering of shots
answered. Suddenly he cursed and
dropped the automatic. Running foot
steps sounded outside and the door
was clubbed open. Big khaki-clad men
swarmed in, took charge of Sleepy and
the wounded Duke, and helped Larry
and his frightened passenger out
Presently he found himself sitting
on the running board of police car
while somebody poured singing anti

dressed it. Gus McHugh and one or

A basement room such as our own
usually has floor of concrete, and
it is important to eliminate moisture.
We wanted wood finish for the chill
dren to play on, SO we laid ordinary
matched flooring over wood mailing
strips. Many people have done this
themselves, but, unless you are very
handy with tools, this part Of the work
might be left to carpenter.
We might have used any one OF the
many materials. such as asphalt tile.
linoleum, or rubber tile, all of which
give charming effects at reasonable
cost. But the manufacturers advice
should be followed in deciding how
much of such work you can safely do
for yourself.
In the attic the old floor may be
satisfactory If not, it's fairly simple
to nail new layer of matched flooring
over the old boards.
Your local lumber dealer will supply
you with simple diagrams, illustrating
the use of the wallboards, but if there
is a partition to build, requiring the
fitting and hanging of door, you'd
better rely on help from professional.
A new radiator may be necessary,
and base plugs should be supplied for
side lamps or electric toys. as we'll as
ceiling light for general illumination.
But this work should be done only by
competent workmen.

had a masonry wall on three sides of
my playroom, so l had to make a
wooden framework to which the wall
board could be nailed. used one-inch
by two-mch wood strips held against
the wall by eight-penny nails driven
into the joints of the masonry.
First nailed these horizontal strips
along the walls just above the floor
and just below the ceiling. Then
sawed a number of strips to fit exactly
between the upper and the lower hori-
zontals, and nailed them vertically on
the walls, spacing them sixteen inches
from center to center.
In case your walls are concrete, l
recommend leaving them exposed and
painting to harmonic with the color
scheme.
In an attic of wood framed build
ing you can nail the sheets of wall
board directly to the verticals, or
studs, and to the roof rafters.
Old plastered walls. like plastered
ceilings. you can easily cover by nail
ing into the plaster and, wherever
possible, into the supporting studs

You have several options for joint
treatment. The use of wood strips or
specially designed metal holdings to
produce paneled effect is very pop

the appearance of beautifully grained
wood.
If you wish eventually to paper the
walls. choose type such as plaster
board. If you prefer painted finish,
plasterboard is also suitable, or you
might try one of the plam-surfaced
fiberboards. Many of these latter, how
ever, are attractive without any finish.
We chose one of these for the walls of
our playroom, but on the garage side
we used a plasterboard for fire pro-
lection.
After you have decided on the
board you prefer, find out the sizes
carried by your dealer. These are
usually six to twelve-foot lengths and
a standard four foot width. For the
walls and partitions choose a length
that will reach from floor to ceiling
with a minimum of waste. The only
joints will then be the vertical joints
between adjacent sheets.
If the ceiling requires surfacing, you
can use a plasterboard painted or
papered, or some of the smaller fiber
board units which can be set in attrac-
tive patterns and either nailed directly
over an ''open" ceiling or applied to
the plastered surface.
If the room is in a basement, at
least one side will probably be an
exterior masonry or concrete wall. l

needed the climbing bus. "Saps,"
laughed Duke. I'D like to see their
faces when they know we rode right
past them"
''Yeah," snicked Sleepy, land by
the time they get wise we'll be down to
Andalia."
Their gloating filled Larry with a
vindictive rage He wanted to explode
their egotism, to shame them as they
had shamed him. Perhaps if he as
sisted in their capture, he might even
redeem himself with Mac.
But how? The thought came to him
when the motor began to labor under
the increasingly heavy pull. He could
pretend to stall the bus, let it back
into the side ditch. Naturally the
armed men on the hillside would come
to his assistance. Duke and Sleepy
would be trapped, with the men on the
outside holding the advantage Of
higher ground.
He let the accelerator come up
slowly; he'd have to make it look
natural. The bus was beginning to jerk
convulsively under diminished power
when the blow fell. He saw it coming
in the mirror but there was no chance
to avoid it.
IL thought told you no funny
stuff" Duke rasped. He pocketed the
gun he had used as club and slipped
into the drivers seat as Sleepy eased
Larry's body to the floor
The high, steady roar of the motor
reused Larry. He lay at full length in
the aisle. The smell of overheated
brake drums was in his nostrils and his
head throbbed. He sat up, touching
his fingers to sticky cut above his
left ear. The clock on the instrument
board showed he had been out an hour.
He got unsteadily to his feet. and
Sleepy. watching him with humor-
less smile, motioned for him to sit be-
side the old lady. Her relief at seeing
him alive was evident.
He began looking for familiar land
marks, but his eyes still played him
queer tricks. When they scared up to
the crest of a flat-topped, barren hill
he knew where they we're. In the dis
tance, city spires lifted into the after
noon haze. 1t was Andalia. He felt a
reluctant respect for the man at the
wheel. They we're ahead of schedule.
The road pitched in long slide to
railroad tracks. As the bus approached
the crossing, the black and white
vehicle barriers settled slowly across
the road. Duke muttered something
and Sleepy went forward for a whis-
pered conference, still keeping Larry
covered with the Tommy gun. They
drifted along more slowly, waiting for
the barrier to 60 up.
Larry could see the watchman in his
tower. bending over the controls.
There were no trains in sight, only a
line of empty cars standing on siding.
And the warning bells, automatically
touched off by the approach of a train.
