Sorry, miss; no one allowed past

other arm he halted others of the
gathering crowd. Stand back, all!
Keep the way clear!"
"I knew it'll" exclaimed a small,
hatless man in a checkered suit.

The constable regarded him con-
temptuously.
"Air-bomb my eye! A 'ouse blew
up is all. An maybe it amt through

The hatless man discreetly faded
into the back of the crowd.
Brindas eyes continued to search
for Dick. In vain. A whistle blew
shrilly. A man in uniform emerged
from the dust-cloud and spoke rap
idly to the constable.
The vail of an ambulance siren
rose high.

stable with new vigor.
A Private Message.
The ambulance stopped. Men with
stretchers leaped from it and strode
toward the wrecked building.
Somebody 'urt?" 1t was the con-
stable replying to new questioner.
"Of course somebody's 'urt! Gen.
tleman went too close and a wall

Brinda sickened with apprehen-
sion. Then the stretcher men re-
turned, moving slowly. They car
rled only one stretcher now and it
was full.
Ere, 'ere!" The constable's hand
closed on empty air. Brinda was
already past him, bending anxiously
over the figure on the stretcher. 1t
was as she had feared.
"Dick!" she exclaimed. "oh. Dick!"
Through mask of pain he rec
ognized her.
'Brinda!"
An ambulance attendant inter-
vened. Cant have this, miss. Have

He hoiSted one end of the
