Germany has banned the issue.

reason for the ban is the fact that
Nazis object to the honor paid to
a wartime foe who, with DR..

CHAPTER XVI

Marian opened her eyes and look
ed dazedly about. She was lying or
the red leather couch in Mr.. Eel
lows conference room. How had she
come there?
Miss Herrod was leaning over
her, sympathy In her pale eyes
She was holding bit of cold wet
gauze to Marian's temple. Sally
was looking down at her. Was
there a hopeful CLEAN behind the
concern In her eyes? Mr.. Fellows
was also there, helpless consterna-
ton written large upon his face.
Marian tried to sit up and
weakly dropped back. well, for
goodness sake, she said, halt
laughing. What ever is the mat
ter with me?"
Shall I call the doctor, Mr..
Fellows?" Sally asked breathlessly.
shes terribly white, she looks
sick" Marian had the feeling that
Sally was making the most of the
incident.
He hesitated and Marian caught
at Sally's hand. Don't send for
the DOCTOR she said firmly. I'm
all right Struggling, she sat up.
whats a faint among friends?"
IT don't like it," Mr.. Fellows
growled. II don't like it at all.
You've never tainted. Marian"
She laughed, smoothing her hair
"And I never celebrated 18th
wedding anniversary before. 1t
lasted all night you know how
those things are"
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-09-22

found herself entering her own
familiar once. Instinct had brought
her back, instinct made her chin
20 up, squared her shoulders.
Sally Blake was sitting at Mar
ian's desk. She got up hlirriedly
'Mr. Fellows said you might not
come back this afternoon" she
explained. HE said I could dc
your work. I sat down at your
desk - Just because I wanted to see
how it would feel to be impor-
tant." Her laugh was a conscious
little tinkle.
Marian asked thickly, HAS Mr.
Hardness 'phoned?"
mo. I've been right here"
Marian put her hat in the trans
parent box, she looked In the mir
ror, startled that her face was the
same. Doctors made MISTAKES, she
kept telling herself, they didn't
always know. It wasn't true. Dan
didn't want a child, she didn't
want q child, there was no place
for q child in the well-arranged
pattern Of their life. Shed 60 on
believing that 1t wasn't true, and
it wouldn't be.
Sally had vacated her desk anc
she sat down. Ridden by protest.
ing nerves, numb with shock, she
threw herself into work. Mr.. Eel
lows had suggested a set Of statis-
tical charts, tiresome and require
ing considerable research. Shed
get 1t it that afternoon. 1t would
fill all her spare moments fol
weeks to come
Mr.. Fellows came in to find hel
almost hidden behind ledgers and
filing cards.
What goes on?.' he asked. 81
told you to take a rest"
She glanced up brightly. 81
went to see DR.. Moss this noon"
she told him. II can't be clutter
ing up the Office with my pros
trate body She was making q
joke of it and he grinned.
What did he say?"
HE gave me nasty nerve
tonic" wrinkling her straight little
nose. He said I was just about
the 'wellest' person it had ever
been his privilege to meet
The doctor had said something
like that. He had said, "You are
in excellent condition, Mrs. Hark-
mes. There's no reason why the
young mans coming should dis
turb you much
Without thinking, she had said,
But it must be girl"
The doctor had reared. She
loathed him for being so horribly
cheerful. well, hope and pray
he had said. II guess you'll take
whatever comes"
So the young mans coming would
MT disturb her much so shed
take what the gods sent-Mariar
bit her lip until pain broke across
her thoughts. It would disturb her
and she wouldn't take it-life
couldn't do that to her.

fines of the tent. Capt. Lacey picked
up the letters and read them. They
contained nothing to excite sus-
picion-mere messages of love and
devotion to friends in the South.
Lacey suddenly pounded the table.

Problem. Solved.
Capt. Lacey stood up. There's no
alternative. It looks as though she
had outsmarted us. Her deportation
will solve the entire problem. Con-
slider that an order, 1t. Boynton."
Two days later Prisoner Alice
Struthers was turned over to Con-
federate Gen. johnson under a flag
of truce. Her identity was kept
secret until the final formality, and
it seemed to 1t. Boynton, to whom
the duty was assigned, that the
enemy seemed reluctant to accept
the prisoner.
During the week that followed it
was conclusively proved that the in
fromation, leakage had been stopped,
which confirmed Boynton's suspi-
cion and re-established him in good
standing with his fellow officers. But
it did not solve the mystery, nor did
it yet allay the feeling of Illustration
in the young lieutenant's mind. He
dwelt on the matter considerably
during the ensuing weeks, for to him
this was puzzle that, once solved,
would prevent the possibility of its
recurrence at a later date.
But it wasn't until after the

of him and studied the worn toe
Of his boot.
Maybe she's not a spy after ALL
Lacey hazarded.
Boynton's blue eyes flashed as he
jerked up his head. "Yes, she is!
I'm sure of it, There's no other
answer"
Lacey shrugged and gestured with
his cigar. "1f you're so sure, we'll
hold court martial and"
mol" Boynton was on his feet
Don't do that, sir. We haven't t
enough evidence to convict. 1t will
mean she'll go free and we'll loss
our one chance of stopping the
leak. Information is getting through
somehow. Alice Struthers is re-
sponsible. We must learn her
methods"
"HoW?"
How? That was the question that
hid driven 1t. Boynston nearly to
distraction, had caused him the loss
Of sleep and wearied his brain from
thinking. A week ago, basing the
act on the slimmest of reasons, he
had had Alice Struthers arrested, to
be held for questioning regarding
the leak age of information to Con-
federate Gen. Johnson. Boynton
knew that few of his fellow officers
were IN sympathy with his sus-
picions. Alice Struthers was at
tractive and popular and had made
1t quite clear that her interests
were with the Northern Army.
Suspicion Aroused.
1t was this that aroused Boynton's
suspicion. To his youthful and
imaginative mind Miss Struthers
was bit too eager and emphatic
in her declarations of devotion for
the Union. He had believed, and
hoped. that her imprisonment would
put an end to the leakage. But 1t
didn't, which strengthened the an
tagonistic feeling of Boynton's fellow
officers toward him. Capt. Finn
Lacey alone supported the young
lieutenant's lunch, but even he
was beginning to show signs OF
leaning the other way.
You can't hold her forever with
out trial, Boynton," the older man
pointed out after another week had
passed in which the lieutenant had
failed completely in his efforts to
unearth some grain of evidence
Besides, it's getting to be matter
of public opinion. The officers are
grumbling about unfair practices
Miss Struthers is popular among
them. Some swear they have known
her for years and will vouch for her
loyalty to the Union"
Which makes it all the more
likely she would succeed as spy
I happen to know that all of Miss
Struthers' maternal ancestors came
from Georgia. She herself spent a
good part of her girlhood in Sa-

World Poultry Con-

Display To Show Latest Sci.
entific Findings---Com-
plete u. S. Exhibit

Maryland poultrymen and others
who attend the World Poultry Con-
gress at Cleveland this summer will
find in the United States Govern
ment exhibit the most complete dis
play of the latest scientific findings
and other activities of the govern
ment ever assembled in behalf of
any industry, according to Wade H.
Rice, specialist in poultry for the
University of Maryland Extension
Service.
The exhibit will occupy $4,000
square feet of space in the Hall OF
Nations, and will represent the work
being done on poultry in 10 depart
ments and Independent offices of the
Government. The exhibit is now
taking definite shape in the exhibit
studios of the Department Of Agri-
culture.
The vast scope of activities of the
Federal Government will be portray
ed by photo murals which will COM
pletely cover the walls of the ex-
hibit. New developments and the
results of exhaustive research will be
graphically presented by wax models
mounted specimens, animated dis
plays, transparentcies, dioramas and
other modern exhibit means.
A feature of particular interest
will be the talking turkey" which
explains by words and animated dia-
gram the assimilation and digestion
of food, thus explaining the nutritive
requirement of all forms of p0ul-
try The arguments of the talking
turkey are adequately backed up by
mounted specimens showing the var
ious ill effects of improper feeding
and by wax models showing the eff
feet of diet on the skin color OF
various breeds of poultry.
Pictures, mounted birds, insect
specimens, and other devices will
show the effect of various insects
and diseases and point to the latest
methods by which poultry raisers
can recognize and control the dis
eases.
