Continued from poss eight

Hack jerked his head toward the sta
tion across the street.
Primrose scowled. Past experience
with the methods of Jeb Hardwick
made Hacks suggestion fit like nut
to bolt. She remembered, now, that
Joe Cooper, who had started the talk,
was married to Hardwick.
"Jeb!' she exclaimed. That's who
done it. That clever old he-fox done
1T. Oh, mel Why ever didn't | think
of that when the Chief was here?"
Yet perhaps it was as we'll she hadn't.
Better to nose around and find out
where Jeb had bought those nails,
and prove it on him cold!
I'm goin' down the street." she
announced. you watch after things
while I'm gone.''
MARCHING with chin up, Primrose
bobbed along to the downtown sec
ton, three blocks away. In the CULVER
Hardware Emporium, she bristled up
to the clerk.
want to buy some nails" she said.
The clerk led her to the back of the
store. where covey of kegs nestled
against the wall. What kind you
want?"
Looking keenly at the clerk, Prim-
rose applied her most becoming smile
I'D like some of the same kind Jeb
Hardwick bought from you last week"
II don't remember his buying any.
but we've got all the kinds there is.
You know what size he got?''
II disremember what size he told
me-"
well, if you'll just wait a minute,
I'll call him and find out"
For split second confusion swelled
the arteries in Primrose's neck. She
hadn't counted on that. Hey, waltz
Her voice was tinged with panic.

finally.
At that moment raucous laughter.
unmistakably from the throat of Jeb
Hardwick, struck dagger into Prim-
roses stomach.
You devil" she yelled, shaking
her fist at Jeb. "I'll get even with
you.'
The only acknowledgment of her
threat was more laughter, this time
increased by the amused customers in
Hardwick's station.
Fuming under the gaze of her rival,
Primrose helped Hack raise the rear
of the car, remove the wheels. The
job was painful in the heat. Pumped
up and held below the surface of the
water IN the tub, each tube shot
thin stream OF bubbles from one tiny
hole. That louise stuck these tires
with an ice pick" Hack ground his
teeth. Your car hasn't been moved
since you came in this morning"
"If I'd only took the old car this
mornin'." Primrose lamented, them

when he did it. They'd "a exploded

= Hack grimaced IT'S sure lucky he
couldn't reach the front tires too
without shown himself, or I'd "a had
four to fix"
At Hacks words horrible picture
fiicked across Primrose's mind. The
rest of the cars lined up along the
fencel She walked fearfully toward
them. A raging below announced that
her worst fears were justified. Every
rear tire was down.
The cunning calculation behind Jeb
Hardwick's use of an ice pick on her
rental customers tires only became
truly apparent to Primrose later Six
motorists - each more furious than
the others - delayed while their
tires were being repaired, refused her
explanations and pleadings and told
her they would transfer their business
across the street as soon as Jeb's lot
was opened. Primrose sadly added up
a monthly cut in revenue of $l8.
1t was nine o'clock that night be-
fore she and Hack had inflated the
last of the repaired tires. Whipped
down, Primrose slumped into the
Office chair Three soft drinks from
the cooler in the corner gurgled down
her throat before she felt sufficiently
revived to tell Hack to take the eve
ming off.
SITTING there in the soft darkness,
she took stock of the days troubles.
She reviewed each disastrous event.
Suddenly she laughed. Deep shad-
ows hid her bulk as she slipped out
of the Office and trudged through the
alley toward her home.
An hour and twenty minutes later
an ancient automobile, lightless,
thumped into her dark station drive
way and heaved to a stop Primrose
deposited two heavy buckets beside
the car and hooked a wide -mouthed
rubber bag. head high. to the side of
the tire-repair shed. A long, thin tube
reached from the end of the bag to the
ground. Quietly she removed both
front tires. The hiss of escaping air
was cool to her hand. She unscrewed

Although the way her poor head

Denny clicked quicker than I
did He brought her a drink while
I was still rubbing her hands and
trying TO zip zippers.
Down il. Msudis, and then let's
have the story straight. Who's
dead"
Miss Millie-in the boat"
Well. eventually we got it
from her. She had started out
to take McCool for his nightly
constitutional, but the sight Of the
shadows and the moonlit road had
brought back too much Of the
other nights horror, so she had
turned and gone down TO the
dock. They had gone out in the
boat and started in the general
direction of the Morris end of the
lake.
II wouldn't have seen the boat
If McCool hadn't barked," she
said, still pathetically shaken and
with all her wise-cracking sophis-
tications lost. Finally did see it
near shore in the reeds. I knew
it was drifting and l though
could tow it back here and then
whoever owned it could get it"
But when she got over to it she
found it wasn't empty. Miss
Mile Morris was there huddled
in the bottom moaning family.
Her poor old head was almost
completely Dashed in.
Whatever was used certainly
was effective" Maudie said in a
voice that trembled. She was
alive"
Did she say anything >" Denny
demanded. And by the way.
Maudie. darling, where's the boat
now"
She waved her hand toward the
lake and said the boat was at our
dock. I could feel the hair stand
up on my neck and even Denny's
hardboiled exterior seemed to
show the strain. 1t seemed the
discovery of the boat and its grue-
some cargo had nearly thrown
Maudie off balance. When she
saw Miss Mile give that last lit
tie shiver and then become still.
Maudie headed for home, rowing
faster and in straighter line
than she had ever rowed before.
Maudie Strengthened up finally
while Denny was preparing to
contact the State Police.
Maybe now you'll listen 10
me" she said. pushing her white
eurls away from her brow and
adjusting her glasses. do you
think the numbers boys had any
reason to rub out poor Miss

screen:
The full reason for Charlie
Chaplin's refusal Of the New York
Film Critics award for acting
hasn't been told In his letter to
the reviewers he said II he ac-
cepted the award Y would be
acknowledging the fact that actors
are competing with each other.
And such an approach to ones
work is not very inspiring 7
aim only To please the public,
which I believe is the true aim Of
all actors.
Chaplin has been the object Of
a lot Of criticism for this attitude,
the consensus being that actors
really do compete with each other,
regardless of ethical notions. For
example: The firmer an actors
professional integrity. the more
anxious he is to please his public.
Thus, a citation for a fine per-
Torrance may be regarded merely
as recognition that this or that
actor best has achieved his ideal
istic goal.
But behind Chaplins' reply was
a more specific and valid reason:
He knew he had not been the en-
thusisstic choice of reassuring
majority. He knew his was com
promise selection resulting from
quite a lot Of desdlooked bslloting.
He did not feel he deserved the
award any more than did two or
three other actors who unvittingly
had been plunged into indecisivs
competition. But ne could not very
well explain all this without It's
sounding like sour grapes.
Quite a lot OF people In Holly
wood have been made indignant by
a publicizsd but unexplained &C
ton OF the Canadian censors. spe-
officially the board in Ottawa In
the Judy Garland picture, Little
Nelly Kelly" this line OF dialogue
was deleted: America is free

lies in the carelessness OF Metro

Of the Ottawa board NJ review
Picture-mskers just can't get II
through their heads that America
is not a country or nation. but a
continent. and that Canadians nat
urally resent our habit Of identi-
tying the United States a. Amer
lea" This instance is the same
sort Of thoughtlessness with which
Hollywood often offends Latin
American nations
