His eyes regarded her somber-

and right then the harm would be
done. Wouldn't it look sweet on
the front pages? Vance Healey,
famous radio announcer, arrested
for drunkenness"
Her eyes held his even while he
lighted another cigaret.
Naturally, when the papers
have discovered they've printed a
scandalous libel about a man, they
retract it. But, l ask you. where
do the retractions appear ?"
In court?" He asked, cooper

He nodded wisely. Sure, sure I
do. But there are a couple of
things that elude me-" He drained
his cup and looked up politely.
How about an eye-opener for

you ?"
Things you're saying about
Healey. What I don't get is the
angle about him. Why not

Vance Healey in a place like

CHAPTER FIVE


KIT FIXED an unbending eye
on her guest and demanded:
How much of last night do you
remember"
His eyes were utterly blank
Then quickly an odd expression of
abashment came into them. Kit
saw that, too, and steeled herself
against it.
Wen start at the beginning,
when you started to heckle the
show at Luigi's."
'Luigi's? I never heard Of the
place."
I'm telling you about it right
now. Luigi's is sort of
night club in the Village, at which
you got obstreperous."
"Talkative, maybe, but obstrep-
erous, never." he corrected gently.
"Obstreperous," she repeated
firmly. And they were going to
throw you out" He opened his
mouth to protest, but Kit ignored
him.
"1'his will explain why ysu're
here; At Luigi's, they don't stop
with throwing you out. They dump
you block away in some doorway
for the cops to pick up"
II see," he said thoughtfully,
feeling his enlarged chin tenderly.
"A nice joint! Must have been
where I got this. Why didn't the
cops pick me up?"
Because 1 brought you here"
He eyed her contemplatively.
Kit read more in his eyes than
he thought she could. The reading
angered her because it en-
barrassed her. II had no personal
reasons" she said sharply. You're
here not because Of who you are,
but because you said you were
Vance Healey. At least, from the
way you said it, anybody might
have thought that was what you
meant"
Maybe am" he said, as
though he wouldn't be a bit sur
prised to hear he was Napoleon.
Maybe you are and maybe I'm
the Queen of May. Listen, stran-
ger You can't go around doing
things like that You might get
into trouble"
He gave her a very fno smile,
all things considered. "And not
have you around to rescue me?"
Her glance would have withered
him had he been capable of seeing
it through the mist.
II didn't do 1t for you" she said
clearly. Il did 1t because you might
have got somebody else in trou-
Bile"
He wanted to ask her how, but
the question slipped away from his
mind as another thought. occurred
to him. The kid was shivering In
the unheated room. He got to his
feet with considerable effort and
crossed the room to close the win
dow. He put his coat about her
shivering shoulders.
Kit accepted the warmth CRATE
fully. but she set her mouth in a
sterner. resisting line. How could
she be impressive IL he was going
to be gallant Most DRINKS, she
told herself, had some charm, but
II wasn't worth hill OF beans.
Don't waste your time doing a
Sir Galahad with me-" she said
with an ungraciousness that was
unfamiliar to her. Just listen
hard"
He appeared to be listening hard. |
Put yourself in the place Of an
important person, person whose
name was a national by-word |
. like Vance Healey, the IA
nous announcer"
He opened his eyes-wide.
Kit saw it and was pleased with
the effect of her words. She nodded
impressively and continued:
That's who you said you were,
Well now, suppose some drunk"

WANT SHORTER FISH
SEASON IN MONTANA

The Helena Fish and Game asso-
citation has decided to ask the state
fish and game commission for a
shorter fishing season as means
of conserving fish so there will be
more for future Montana anglers
and tourists. A resolution adopted
by the club points out the days of
meat fishing" are over, and that
winter fishing is the hardest on the
fish population.
The association favors a season
beginning May 81 as at present, and
ending November IS, instead of
March 20. Fishing in rivers would
not be affected by the proposed
change. Al Riegel of Helena, presi-
dent Of the group, said other sports
mems clubs throughout the state
will be asked to join the Helena
clubs movement.

HISTORY OF LIVESTOCK

The Federal government, the
Montana state department OF agri-

gagged in the compilation of a COM
plete and authentic history of the

Montana. This work is being done
through the medium of the Montana

supervision of the Works Projects
Administration.
The material and data gathered
by the local workers in each Of the
eight counties, Cascade, Choteau,
Hill, Toole, Liberty, Glacier, Pom
dera and Teton counties, are all
cleared through the regional office
of the Montana State Writers Pro-
ject in Great Falls.
Glacier county, and especially the
area around Browning, has always
stood exceptionally high as live
stock area. Therefore, we are asking
the cooperation of everyone who has
any data on this subject in COM
piling data from the Browning dis
trict of Glacier county.
Mr.. Ernest Stewart is in charge
of the Browning office and will be
glad to get any data on the history
of the Browning livestock industry.

Strange Old Post Office
Once Served as a Home

ST. MARTINVILLE, LA. - St.
Martinville's post office, built in 1875
as home. is believed to be the only
post Office of its kind in the United
States.
Several years ago. when the post
Office department awarded the town
a new post office, there was talk of
razing the building and replacing it
with a streamlined structure.
Citizens objected, and finally the
post office department was persuad-
ed to restore the building on the
outside and remodel the inside. An
old slave Office and elaborate iron
lace-work are still part of the build
ing.
