until they brought her almost to the
brilliantly lighted drawing room.
Before her loomed the doorway
through which Sir John had been
carried. The doors, of loaded glass,
stood a little ajar. Through them,
Brinda thought with sudden surge
of anger, the unseen assailant had
perhaps escaped. Or, for that mat
ter, he might still be in the drawing
room. He might be one of the
dancers--a servant, perhaps-a
member of the orchestra. Anything
was possible in this enigmatic
Mountwyn household.
Pausing in the shadow of a tall
clump of boxed evergreens, Brinda
peered into the crowded room, hop
ing to see the strong, studious face
and tall, competent figure of Dick
Maiden, But they were not among
the many faces and figures that
drifted past. She made a final
tentative step toward the half-open
door -.
Then, at the sudden sound of a
mans voice, arrestingly near at
hand, she shrank swiftly back into
the protecting shadow of the shrub
berry.
She remained perfectly still
frozen into silence by something
alien and furtive in the tone of the
unseen speaker. In a moment, an

His head dropped in thought, the
physician sat motionless until the
steady tempo of Sir Johns breath
ing attested that the sedative had
done its work. Then DR.. Macdonald
rose and walked with slow, careful
steps to a window. Standing and
looking out into the night, hands
clasped behind his broad back, he
muttered deep as a muted or

Once outside the bedroom, Brinda
knew the path she wished to take.
Down the broad stairs, a turn at
the end of the spacious hall, then
across the dark, shrub-bordered ter
race. A dank, autumn mist had
settled down, and the terrace ap-
peared deserted
Brinda shivered as the clammy
garment of fog touched her bare
shoulders. She hastened her steps

"Then," said the doctor practi-

For one thing, the girl thinks the

more than that, she's the daughter
of Andy Duncan and there's no

Easy, Alec. I didn't say I sus-

Bedtime Stories
nv THORNTON W. RJTRGESS.

Peter Rabbit had spent a quiet
day in the dear Old Briar Patch.
AS evening approached he decided
to go back to hear Melody the
Wood Thrush sing again. Just as
he drew near the Green Forest he
heard from the direction of the
Laughing Brook song which
caused him to change his mind
and sent him hurrying in that di-
rection. 1t was a very different
song from that of Melody, yet if
he had never heard it before, Peter
would have known that such a song
could come from no throat except
that of a member of the Thrush
family.
AS he drew near, those beautiful
notes seemed to ring through the
Green Forest like bell. AS Melody's
song filled with the feeling of
peace, so this song stirred in him
a feeling of the wonderful mystery
of life. There was in it the very
spirit of the Green Forest. 1t didn't
take Peter long to find the singer,
1t was Veery, who has been named
Wilson's Thrush, and by some folks
is known as the Tawny Thrush.
At the sound of the patter of
Peters feet, the song stopped
abruptly and he was greeted with
a whistled "Wheeui Wheeu!" Then,
seeing that it was no one of whom
he need be afraid, Veery came out
-
Peter. He was smaller than his
cousin Melody, being about one
fourth smaller than Welcome Robin.
He wore a brown coat, but it was
not so bright as that of Melody. His
breast was somewhat family spotted
with brown, and below he was white.
His sides were grayish white and
not spotted like Melody's sides.
II heard you singing, and I just
had to come over to see you" cried
Peter.
II hope you like my song" said
Veery. Il love to sing just at this
hour, and love to think that other
people like to hear me-"
They do" declared Peter most
decidedly. II can't imagine how
anybody could fail to like to hear
you. 1 came way over here just to
sit while and listen. Won't you
sing some more for me, Veery?"
Certainly" replied Veery. II
wouldn't feel that I was going to
bed right if I didn't sing until dark
The only way I can express my
happiness and love of the Green
Forest and the joy of just being
back here at home is by singing"
Veery slipped out of sight and
almost at once his bell-like notes
began to ring through the Green
Forest. Peter sat right where he
was, content just to listen and feel
within himself the JOY of being
alive and happy in the beautiful
spring season which Veery was ex-
pressing so wonderfully.
Finally from deep in the Green
Forest sounded the hunting call of
Hooty the Owl. Veery's song stopped.
Good night, Peter" he called
softly.

 Rutkauskas, who had pleaded not guilty, heard Judge Munger pro- nounce sentence as he supported himself on a cane. The accused was still suffering from the effects of 6 bullet wound which was in- flicted in running gun battle with the officers.
 Testimony presented in court ac- cused Rutkauskas of driving stolen car near the town of Essex when 1t was spotted by Ofiicer William Sternberg and Walter Smigiel, student officer in a state patrol car. The two oelcers then gave chase until Rutkauskas drove into a dead end street in old saybrook. Rut- kauskas then jumped from the car and as the student officer approach ed him, fired a shot in an effort to scare the ofKlcer who walked toward him unarmed.
 Odacer Sternberg in turn fired a shot into the air but the youth would not surrender. and the sec- ond bullet penetrated his abdomen

Rev. Dr. John Walker Plays Evil Forces Spreading
 Dsmay and TerOr Across Universe Today

yesterday, November 1, was an All Saints Day and we do not hap pen to recognize this day with spe- cial services as do some of our sis- ter denominations but I hope we are none the less mindful of those who have entered into rest, having the testimony of good conscience in favor with God and in charity with the World" stated Rev. Dr. John c. Walker, Second Congrega- tional church pastor, yesterday morning in his sermon entitled, When We Come to the Lords Table
 Dr. Walker said in part:
 we may say further that in our free churches the calendar of saints is longer and broader than 1t can ever be in some churches. We in- clude in our fellowship of sainthood not alone such as St. Augustine and St. Francis, who belong to the old historic church but the pioneers of faith, reformers, non-conformists heretics so-called in their day and generation but men and women whose lives brought forth the fruits of righteousness and truth. We hon. or the memory of Savonarola the Florentine and %An Illus the Bohe- milan who were the morning stars ot the Reformation and whose ashes served as their final testimony to a living and undaunted faith. We hon. or the memory of a Joan of Arc who followed the inner voice though it brought her to the stake.

that there mgiht be no elections in 1041, Stassen shot back: Absurd. There will ba elections iK1 Minnesota and all the other states. Such state- nnents as that and the injection of racial prejudice in Mfr. Lind- berghs Des Moines speech make the isolationlsts appear ridiculous.

 Stassen holds no malice toward Llndbergh and looks upon him as perfectly sincere In his stand.
 Most people here feel very kind- ly toward Mir. Lindhergh," said Stassen. 'He has our sympathetic understanding, but I honestly be- neve he would be defeated if he sought the Republican nomination here on the isolatlonist platform.
 There's lots of talk about the 'isolationist middle-west,' but haven't found it SO. After making speeches all over Minnesota and other states, I'm convinced the ma- jority believes with President Roose- welt that Q British victory would be out victory and that things would be very unpleasant for us indeed il the Hitler hordes win"
