parent than usual. This equipment
was all electrical and radio appara-
tus, some intricate puzzle that was
one day to be the real control for
anti aircraft fire. But the equip
ment was a tangled mess now, as
though Bugs Porter had wrecked his
work. Phil felt a chill creep up his
spine, his nerves pulled tight, and
he knew that something was very
wrong here.
Phil in Trouble.
He took a step into the room, and
then he saw Bugs lying Sprawled on
the floor behind workbench. The
officer lay faced down. There was
a little pool of blood on the con-
crete. The wound was at the base
of Bugs skull. The weapon. mon
key wrench, lay close to him. His
arms we're outStretched and gripped
in one hand was a fat manila en-
velope. Bugs didn't move. He didn't
seem to breathe.
Phil went and knelt by him. He
turned him over onto his back and
loosened his shirt He lay his hand
against Bugs chest, and he felt
vast relief when he found a heart
beat. A faint heartbeat.
He rose to go summon aid, but
paused again on seeing the envelope
in Bugs hand. That envelope, he
knew, contained the inventors
notes which were to be locked in
Headquarters safe. Phil puzzled
over that, the envelopes presence.
If a spy had attacked Bugs it was
strange he had not taken the notes
Phil didn't know why he paused
to take the envelope from the mans
unfeeling fingers. Afterward, he
reasoned he must have thought OF
keeping the notes safe. So he took
the envelope and started to rise.
And at that moment Mai. Ham,
mond's voice said, All right, How
ard. Just stand as you are!"
The c. o. had a service automatic
in his hand. and he stood there in
the doorway with thin twisted
smile on his lips. His heavy, florld
face was pleased. He raised his
voice, and shouted, Guard! Guard"
Phil's Arrest Ordered.
A whistle shrilled out on the
grounds. A voice sounded, and run
ming feet pounded. Two men came
down the concrete steps. Maj.
Hammond stepped into the room.
and the two guards rushed in. One
was a sentry; the other was Sergt.
Burke.
Hammond said, Sergeant, I want
you to look at this scene. You'll
have to remember it later in exact
detail. Now, what do you see?'
Burke's sun-bronzed middle aged
face showed astonishment, then un-
easiness. His keen old-soldiers eyes
surveyed the scene, then came to
Phil Howard. His eyes seemed to
say, Sorry, Captain"
Hammond snapped, We'll, what
do you see, Burke?"
well, sir. I see Maj. Porter
wounded or dead on the floor. And
I think the medical offcer ought to
see him"
Never mind what you think"
the c. o. said. What else do you
see?"
II see gun in your hand, sir"
What else?"
well. Capt. Howard standing be-
side Maj. Hammond"
What do you see in his hand?"
AN envelope, sir" said Burke re-
luctantly.
Hammond gave satisfied chuckle.
He looked at the sentry. And you,

young Daladier, the rising politician. She was
always near him. with her counsel Then Edouard
Dalader discovered the comfort that comes to
strong man from the help and presence of gentle,
loving woman.
After ten years of marriage, Madame Daadier
died, leaving her husband two sons, Jean and
Pierre, fine sturdy boys whom he dearly loves For
years after his wife's death, Edouard Daadier
worked on, to arrive somewhere, to give HER sons
what HER sons should rightly have. And after
some years Of history teaching, he became deputy
and went to Paris There his silence and his
strength were noted by all parties as in ParS
drawingrooms, the good wives of the old schod(
nodded their heads and remarked again
There is man faithful to his wife There is
a one-woman man. There is French statesman
who could be rich, but is content to be poor There
is the righteous Cncinatus, born this time into our
modern France. His simplicity, his virtue, his in
compatibility, his aloofness from Light and Tempt
ing women, should be an example to all our mad

So young Edouard taught for a little while
Then came the war. when the guns Of 1914 rumbled
across Europe, and sturdy young Frenchmen
marched behind the tricoor. But in that army,
then, young Daladier displayed the qualities of a
leader For entering as private, he wasmustered
out captain. He won, besides, the Legion of
Honor, the Croix de Guerre, with three citations.
He was successful in the army as he had been
successful at home and in school.
All, Daladier, our Lost Leader, once knew war
in all its dirt and vermin in its waowing trenches
through the long, dreary, dragging days. He knew
war in mud and under rainy skies when the world
seemed an endless waiting for decent life that

where about fifty years ago, the worthy village
baker, Pere Daladier, became the father of a son,
Edouard. The young Edouard grew and flour
ished, strong, dutiful little lad.
Soon he was helping about his fathers shop, in
all the tasks of baking, firing the ovens delivering
the loaves of honest French bread But since
France is democracy even as your America, Pere
Daadier wanted something better for his son than
he had achieved himself. And so he kept the lad
in school till the day when Edouard came home to
tell his father he had won scholarship for college
study.
Then there was rejoicing in the baker shop.
And when. years later, Edouard graduated
from the Ecoe Normale Superieure, combination
of normal school and college, Pere Dclader was

loved bride Of his youth"
The story of how our lost leader Edouard
Dalader married his wife was for us an idyl Dur
ing the World War it was French custom to
find for every lonely soldier a confidante or good
angel. We called her the poilus marianne, which
meant sort of godmother. Each girl or woman
was asked to write her soldier gay, staunch letters
warm with the fires of home, vital with our good
French soil and sky and farmstead
girl whose name was Madeline Laffont the
daughter of a scientist, was Daladiers marianne
Her letters, kind and cheering touched with gen.

of war. And when the war and the SOL

looked at the queen of it all,
the gentle girl passing the lit

He knew he had met the
love of his life. So the awk-
