Thorpe's incredulous voice cut across
the silence.
And what has Miss Moffat to
say for herself?" The sheriff's voice
was hard.
"She-well-she's not here" Lee
explained lamely. "She was a little
hystercial. I guess you'd call 1t, so
DR.. Sherwood sent her to her room. +"
The Sheriff Is Angry.
Mia looked with amazement at
this evidence of her brothers per-
turbation. Was it possible that Lee
was attracted toward that little
mouse of a secretary? But no, it
couldn't be. The thing was incredi-
BILE. Mas attention was jerked
back to Sheriff Hazard, who was
displaying evidences of wrath.
do you mean," he asked, that
that girl has been alone upstairs
ever since this thing happened?"
He turned to Mr.. Wetherfether.
Bring her down here at once" he
ordered.
Yes SIR" said Mr.. Wetherfether
He rose stifay, his impressed
trousers falling into baggy folds at
the knees. He started out of the
room, then suddenly retraced his
steps. But where1l find her?"
he asked, looking more like puz-
zled rabbit than ever.
II think I know where her room
is" said Mia, who had seen Noel
disappearing into one OF the up
stairs rooms after their mornings
ride.
BE kind enough to show Mr..
Wetherfether the way then," re-
quested Sheriff Hazard.
To the knock on her door. Noel
Moffat answered a mufled, Come
in"
When Mia opened the door tenta-
lively, she saw that Noel had flung
herself face down across her bed,
and had buried her head in her
arms.
The police are here and want to
see you," said Mia, as kindly as she
could.
Noel sprang to her feet, exhibit
ing tear-stained face.
THE police-want to see me? But
why?" she asked breathlessly.
You'll know soon enough" said
Mr.. Wetherfether, edging into the
room sideways. Just come down now
as fast as you can, ma am. And no

Hazard. He nodded toward GAVIN.
You can show me the way. The
rest of you stay here until I come
down. Wetherfether, you see that
they do. DR.. Morley, take your bag
and come with me-"
The words were snapped out with
staccato precision. DR.. Morley un-
wound his long frame from the
depths of the leather chair in which
he was sitting, picked up his shabby
black bag and numbered up the
stairs after the sheriff.
When the two officers came down
an hour later John Hazards face
was set in purposeful lines.
eYou were right" he said. ad-
dressing DR.. Sherwood. Jarvis
Thorpe undoubtedly died of snake
venom. But how it was introduced
into his body is another matter. DR..
Morley will take the remains into
Center City for an autopsy. We
haven't the facilities here in Tor
rington for the proper kind of post
mortem. In the meantime" his
glance swept the group, "it is the
duty of any one who has any in
formation bearing on the murder to
come forward at once"
Complete silence met his request.
Every WELL" said John Hazard,
"then I shall have to conduct the
investigation in my own way" His
words carried a conviction OF in
flexible purpose that was intensified
by the determination in his eyes.
He turned back to DR.. Sherwood.
Perhaps you will be kind enough, F"
he said in a voice that was more
of an order than request, Ito
help DR.. Morley move the body to
the car"
Certainly" replied Sherwood. He
rose at once.
A Clue Is Found.
This time I'm going with you" !"
cried Pauline. During all the time
the sheriff and the coroner had
been upstairs she had sat motion
less as a statue, her hands folded
rigidly in her lap. Now, however,
as she moved toward her uncle tears
began to rain down her cheeks.
John Hazard watched her mar
rowly as she went slowly up the
stairs, supported by her uncle. When
they had vanished from sight on
the upper landing, closely followed
by the unprepossessing figure Of
the coroner, the sheriff turned back
to the waiting group.
(Which one Of you," he asked.
"lost this in Jarvis Thorpe's room?"
He took little silver pencil out
of his pocket and held it up before
them.
Again his request was met by
silence.
Come, GOMEZ" exclaimed Hazard,
a ring of impatience in his voice.
Surely whoever lost it remembers
that his-or her-initials are en-
graved on the shaft of the pencil.
Still no one replied.
"I had hoped" said the sheriff
shat there might be some plausi-
BILE explanation for the loss OF the
pencil. But this continued evasive-
ness compels we to think otherwise
I should like to interview privately
the person whose initials he
glanced briefly at the pencil, "are

In the uncertain twilight Of the
room, Bruce Peyton approached
Noel Mof1at.
IF you would be so kind, should
like to have q word with you," he
said, his voice suavely courteous.
II don't want to talk to any one!"
Fear Of suspicion made the girls
voice husky.
II think it would be to your in
terest to give me a few moments" ("
the lawyers voice was silky, but
determined. "You see, I am the
only one here who knows that you
had motive for numbering Jarvis

Council Retreats
from Meatless
Day Proposal

LANSING, Oct. 20 - B -
The State Defense Council, on
the advice of Federal Agencies,
retreated today from its recon-
mendation Michigan institute
one "meatless" day each week.
Instead. the Council said,
Michigan will participate in -
different Federal Meat Conser-
walton program in which house
holders will be asked to coop.
crate.
The recommendation for q
"meatless" day was adopted by
the Council last Saturday.
1t. Col. Harold A. Furlong,
Defense Council Administrators,
said the experts assured him the
Federal plan will accomplish the
purpose of the original recon-
mendation, to keep civilian meat
consumption within the limits Of
supply.
He said Federal officials fear
ed encouragement of "meatless"
days would create the impress
sion among farmers that there
would be less demand for meat
stocks and that they then would
reduce production. Government
programs are directed to in
creasing production to meet ci-
william. lend-lease and military
needs.
