| Along the diagram Of the track
system the white lights blinked on,
one at time, and the ones behind
them went out correspondingly.
Laurence pointed to where an
other line branched Off, several
lights ahead Of the moving train.
Here's a track switch that Is set
against the train. The light Is red.
The train would stop automatically
before 1t reached the switch, but I
press this button here-like this
and the light turns from red to
green. That means that I have
thrown the switch to clear the
| track"
What throws the switch Pa
Richard wanted to know.
Its a type of electro magnet
known as a solenoid. The current
sent through 1t when I press the
button causes 1t to snap the track
switch points over toward the OPP
posite rail-"
Laurence moved another lever.
THAT solenoid must have a pref
ty good pull" Henry observed.
"Oh, yes, the switch machine L.
dependable"
What are those new lights that
have just appeared on the board?"
That's a freight train I'm send
ing headon toward the passenger.
When it gets down the track a
ways I'll move a switch that will
send 1t over onto siding to let the
passenger train by"
Il want to see thatw exclaimed
Richard. He ducked out through
the doorway, under the table and
into the main train room. Henry
heard him exclaim In admiration,
Gee, all the lights are burning in
the little buildings! And the signals
work"
Henry couldn't help smiling at
his boys enthusiasm. He felt a
thrill himself rs he heard the tiny
wheels rumble across the section
OF track that bisected the doorway,
behind the painted scenery. Don't
touch anything" he warned.
II won't"
Laurence pointed to the diagram
on the control panel. See, the two
trains are only one division apart.
One OF them will stop automatical-
ly If / don't put the freight on the
siding. Here GOES. Watch the sig
nal lights. They'll turn to red until
the line is clear again. Watch the
relay. The passenger will slow
down." He threw lever.
At that instant Richard cried
out. 1t was almost a scream. The
murderer! The murderer! He's
here"
Henry's heart almost collapsed.
He dove for the half-blocked pas
sageway to the other room.

CHAPTER EIGHT
THERE WASN'T time for a
murderer to do all that" declared
Henry, contradicting the theory by
Laurence Hardness that the killer
of John Ives had first forced Ives
to wreck the model trains.
The young farmer-artist shook
his head. PLENTY of time. Suppose
when Ives entered that room he
met man holding a gun
Impossible. There couldn't have
been anyone in the room with him,
unless one Of the members of the
club sneaked In after him. -
"All right. Suppose one Of the
club members oucked in through
the doorway after him when the
lights were turned down, and stuck
a gun in his ribs and propped a
note up, on the switchboard where
Ives had put his book Of instruc-
tions. All the note would have need
ed to read would be, Start trains
held Down relay No ~"
And what happened when the
trains crashed?"
AT that moment the killer fred
his shot. The crash covered the
sound Of the shot. especially Il
there was a silencer on the gun"
"G-gosh! You've got it all figured
out" breathed Richard, who had
been listening wide-eyed.
Henry wasn't satisfied. 1T re-
quired perfect timing to make the
crash and the shot simultaneous"
mot necessarily. The crash
wasn't over in an instant. The To-
comotives nit, went off the track,
and then couple of cars piled up"
Henry still didn't like the theory.
There was something about it that
couldn't be true, he told himself,
although he couldn't put his finger
on it.
Come. I'll show you the control
ROOM" Laurence offered.
They crossed the main operating
space and ducked under the table
and scenery that concealed the up
per half of The door into the train
dispatching compartment where
Ives had been shot.
The small room, with It's plas-
tered walls and ceiling, seemed I'M
changed. In the center of the floor,
taking UP iluch Of the available
space, was the large, solidly built
desk on whose polished sloping
black top precise geometric lines
represented on a small scale the
various tracks in the main room.
At regular intervals were small
glass buttons Of various colors.
Laurence explained that inside
the desk under the buttons were
tiny electric light globes that were
switched on by the passage Of a

train along a corresponding length
of track in the main room. The
movement of lights represented the
movement of trains.
For each section or division Of
track there was a power switch to
stop and start trains, and revers-
ing switch to change the direction
Of travel on that division. There
were three rheostats to control
speeds, each so wired that 1t could
be switched into the power circuit
supplying any division Of track.
ITS the latest type and prac-
tically foolproof," Laurence told
Henry and his son. you can see
Instantly how all the power
switches are set. 1t was Hans who
pointed out to the police that they
were set wrong when Ives was
killed"
where did you learn to build
things like this ?" Henry asked.
II haven't learned. It's Hans
who's the electrical wizard. The
rest of us picked up few things
from him, but when there's any
complicated job to be done we call
on Hans. You ought to see his dia-
grams Of the wiring system for
this layout"
Richard was impatient. when
are you going to run the trains ?"
"You can wait a few minutes"
his father told him. while we're
here we want to see IL there's any
other way to get into this room.
That's-the AeHly possible chance
anyone outside the railroad club
could have shot Mr.. Ives.
While Richard remained at the
switchboard, fascinated. the two
men examined the entire room.
They even tapped every wall to
learn II there were any hollow
spots. Solid as a rock" observed
Laurence.
Pm sure there are no concealed
doors, Henry agreed.
And there isn't break in the
floor or ceiling.
Henry looked upward. Ceilings
all plastered, too. Don't use that
electric light fixture in the center,
I see. No globe in it."
mo. The VIKINGS disconnected.
We prefer the desk lamp" He
moved the flexible stand OF the
lamp that arched over the switch
board. you see, it gives us a con-
centrated light where we want it."
He sat down and put his hands on
the controls. do you want to go
outside and watch the trains, Rich
ard? You can't see them In here,
you know"
I'D like to see the lights work"
Laurence grinned. He snapped
one Of the tiny levers on the con-
troll panel. One Of the lights on the
panel glowed red. another white.

Is Abandoned
In Montgomery

Use of the Schick test among
Montgomery County Md school
children as a protection against

more emphasis placed instead on re-
peated inoculations of toXoid, DR.. V.
L. Ellicott. county health officer, an
nounced yesterday.
The trouble with the Schick test. ,"
DR.. Ellicott explained. lis that it is
not, as formerly believed. perma-
nent. A negative test means i'm
munity when the test is performed.
IF the immunity declines below
the level necessary to protect and
the child is exposed and contracts
diphtheria. the Schick test is dis
credited and the family loses con-
fidence in diphtheria inoculations in
general"
Because the disease is most dan
gerous in preschool ages. he added
toxoid should be given as soon as
possible after the child is nine
months old 4.
A second dose should be given one
month later. and an additional
stimulating dose of toxoid should
be given when the child enters
school, the health officer declared
