THE TRAP
Continued from preceding page

She sighed She knew exactly what ne
was going to say He made the same state
ment every time he came to her house:
"A grateful fatherland knows how to re-
ward loyal subjects"
When he had repeated that statement he
added, But we have reason to believe,
madame, that there were two OF them. Inc
dying man could not have gone so tar IN the
woods without help. There are indications
of a second man" He leaned forward and
looked at her quizzically. You have seen
no one, madame
II have seen no one," she said stiffiy.
As if by pre-arranged signal, the orderly
went into the kitchen, the bedrooms. She
could hear closet doors being opened and
closed. They never missed an opportunity
to search the house. When the orderly came
back the officer turned toward the door
The second man cannot get far. he
must be in the neighborhood," he said
pointedly He clicked his heels and bowed,
Il bid you good evening, madame"
After the sound of the German car had
died away. Christine turned to Anatole,
who had been standing near by IF there
is another English boy in the woods - if
he comes here" she put her hand to her
forehead - I'VE are in danger, Anatole."
Eyes, madame, but if he comes for
help -"
I'VE cannot help him now" she said,
shaking her head, "or we will never help
another They will be watching for him
'"Yes, madame" Anatole said sadly,
DOME time about midnight Christine was
awakened by a scratching, then knock
on the door Before she could get out of bed
she heard Anatole, who slept in the little
room off the kitchen, open the front door.
Hastily she put on dressing gown and
shoes Anatole met her at the door of her
bedroom ''It is the other English boy"
he whispered. Come
She walked into the room and motioned
to Anatole to lift his lantern. She saw
young, sandy haired boy of not more than
twenty-five, with smooth tanned cheeks
and pale gray eyes. He appeared to be
wounded. He pressed one hand to his shoul-
der where, she could see, blood had seeped
through his dirty uniform.
Help me, please" he said in English
I'm wounded I've been hiding in the
woods for days | can't 60 on
Christine looked at him with pitiless eyes
Il am sorry" she said in an even, fiat voice
Il cannot help you"
His eyes appealed to her But I'll prob
ably be shot if I'm caught

obey German orders They have not both
cred me, and want it to remain that way"
Then for the love of God give me some
thing to eat" he said. Il have had nothing
since yesterday
81 cannot even do that, for that would
be helping you," she said in an inaexible
voice. She turned to Anatole and said in
rapid French Rush to the village and re-
port this man." She could see the pain in
Anatole's eyes. Don't argue. Hurry"
Anatole, with bowed head, went out
The boy looked at her with reproachful
eyes. Il thought you would help me.
You've helped others. IL don't want to
die
Wait" she said Wait until he gets
back"
ANAToLE was stopped by patrol car be-
fore he reached the main road. Sadly he
told the arrogant young officer that Madame
wanted to see him.
The German looked at him strangely and
uttered an oath.
Here is your man" Christine Aubonnet
said with great dignity as the German officer
strobe into the room.
"You are to be congratulated on your
vigilance, madame" he said in his usual
mocking tones. She saw the look of hatred
he threw at the wounded soldier He drew
his gun.
so, you thought you could escape. you
English dog?' He motioned the boy to the
door, then turned to Christine 81 bid you
good night, madame. hope your sleep will
not be further disturbed
The door closed and Anatole started to
speak. "Sh-h-h," she warned Listen"
They went to the window and heard the
German officer say, "You stupid fool"
There was the sound of blow struck. Then
two voices spoke rapidly in German.
Anatole gaped. That - he - that boy
was German, madame?
Yes 1t was trap" Her voice was cool
and firm.
But - but he looked like the English,
he spoke English He had on uniform like
that English boy in the woods"
Probably the same uniform And he
spoke excellent English. Cambridge,
think" She was smiling.
But, madame, do not understand. How
did you know he was not English"
He said he had been hiding in the woods
for days. When man is hiding, trying to
save his life, he does not stop to shave.
Did you notice that boys face?"
A light came into Anatole's eyes. "Ah,
madame, yes. How wise you are. That one
was clean-shaven; he had no beard

the planting of $4,000 trees as its

Rubber and manganese are al

In Panama, the days around the
turn of the century-when two

black sinking blobs of crude rub
ber were q common sight-may
speedily return.
From 100000 to 100000 wild
rubber trees are spotted across
Panama's seven provinces, the Gov

may be in concentrated areas, many
of them on abandoned plantations
now choked with two or more dec
