 Whatever was used certainly was effective" Maudie said in a voice that trembled. "She was alive"
 Did she say anythingp" 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. It seemed the discovery of tho boat and its grue- some cargo had nearly thrown Maudie of balance. When she saw Miss Millie give that last lite tic 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 you1l listen to me-" she said, pushing her white curls away from her brow and adjusting her glasses. DO you think the numbers boys had any reason to rub out poor Miss Miller"

"You1l never learn. You've done it this time for sure. And you're probably still wearing that darn new corset" said, really frightened, for Maudie's years and weight aren't to be taken lightly although they never seem to worry her.
 Denny was beside me trying to drive the grim frozen look from her face with some witticism. You've as good as lost your bet, Machusla," he said, putting an arm around her shoulder, but don't worry, I'll still dine and wine you"
 She pulled away, heading for her pet rocker and sat down with a little moan. Bet You fool, you've lost"
 He stared at her and then I felt little sick. She was terrified. I could see 1t in her tightly gripped hands and in the shivers that went over her well-padded frame.
 She's dead. I was with her when she went. I-1 don't think she suffered long. It must have happened just before I came along and I don't think she felt any pain" Maudie was always one to flee from the thought of suffering Although the way her poor head was beaten 1t must have hurt hor- ribly--"
 Denny clicked quicker than I did. He brought her drink while I was still rubbing her hands and trying to zip zppers.
 Down 1t, Maudie, and then let's have the story straight. Who's dead?"
 Miss Millie -- in the boat
 Well, eventually we got 1t 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 hor- TOT, 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.
 T wouldn't have seen the boat If McCool hadn't parked" she said, still pathetically shaken and with all her wise-cracking sophis- tication lost. Finally I did see 1t near shore in the reeds. l knew 1t was drifting and I thought I could tow 1t back here and then whoever owned 1t could get It."
 But when she got over to 1t she found 1t wasn't empty. Miss Millie Morris was there huddled in the bottom moaning faintly. Her poor old head was almost

ANOTHER MURDER CHAPTER VIII

It wasn't fate that knocked, but young Tod Palmer. He had just come from the State Police Post where he had heard news import ant enough to start him on the hunt for Denny. Tod's weekly didn't play for scoops and even If he'd been on his own deadline he still would probbaly have hur- ried to Denny because you could see he thought Denny was tops among rewspapermen.
 OfIicer John Antler had just re- ceived word that the city police had picked up Stush Veretti, and with the information the officers had collected they could now place Veretti in the vicinity of Paradise Lake at the time of the crime.
 And a city dick by the name of Sullivan said to tell you they were sure they would soon have the gum" Tod's face was still pale, but there was a softness about his lips that hadn't been there that morning when he had stood up at the inquest and provided Jeanie Morris with her alibi.
 Sure Denny said. T knew they'd be able to hang 1t on that guy. Someone in town was sure to squeal on him" He looked like the cat that had swallowed the canary, he was SO obviously pleased with himself. couldn't help but laugh when he looked at me for approval.
 Tod said he couldn't stay and I hoped he was on his way down the road toward the Morris house. There alone, with its gingerbread trim, the house was a pathetic re- hinder of better days when the Morris family had had enough money to be a power In the summer community. The moon was still painting the lake, but 1t had travelled some. If couldn't make use of 1t I hoped Jeanie could.
 Denny was too engrossed with his own thoughts about the next days story to look at the moon so prepared to sit down and read the papers l had neglected.
 Then, in the distance. I heard Finn McCools grurnble and Maudie'S sharp answer. The tone in her voice bothered me. It didn't sound quite natural. As a rule the more McCool grumbled in his dour Scotty way the more tolerant and amused she became, but now she was sharp - sharp and frightened.
 She came from the path to the dock SO I supposed she had been out rowing again. Blisters, prob- ably, I thought. She wouldn't learn to take 1t easily at first.
 'Did you row around the whole Iake?" I asked. But sine wasn't smiling as she opened the door on the screened porch, pushed AcCool in ahead. There were red splotches on her cheeks and hei breath was coming in short gasps I jumped up and went to meet her

Field Marshal Foch Led Allies in World Wor l IN 1889, France fell before the A onslaughts of the German army. in 30 days. This stunning defeat was partly caused by inferior and outmoded equipment, but it was also due in large measure to the rottenness of the French general staff.
 French generals were found in- competent in World War I also, but were removed before their fumbling led to complete defeat. Master tactician in the first World War and the man who eventually led the allied armies to victory was Field Marshal Ferdinand Toch (lS51-1929), who was hon- ored alphabetically in the 1940 stamp aboves
 Foch was placed in supreme command of the allied armies March 26, 1918, following the gi. gantic German attacks which drove back the allied lines at Picardy jeopardizing Paris and Calais.
