sore eyes! This surely woke me up.
She was toying at his lapels, and
he took her wrists and slowly tight
ened his grip. You're a poor liar
She knew she'd failed. She'd tried
to save Dave. She'd tried to get him
away, to keep him from becoming
involved. He'd be helpless against
Bills type of underhand fighting.
you've been two-timing me. /
thought you'd learned your lesson
about that
mo, Bill i swear -
you're a poor liar. Hell, a blind
man could tell you were nuts about
that guy"
Bill, you can't hurt Dave! You
can't do anything to Dave"
Then he grinned - and she knew
she'd made another mistake. He'd
only been guessing. suspicious; now
he knew. He said, so it is that way,
huh?"
Bill, please leave Dave alone
"You learn slow. Come along. l
hear that floor show is hot
She wrenched from his grasp and
ran to the window. They'd have to
run. She and Dave. They'd have to
hide. He was in this now. She had to
warn him. From the window she
saw him going down the steps to the
street. His shoulders sagged. Poor
Dave: the trouble she'd caused him!
And trouble was just beginning. He
couldn't fight a man like Bill,
wouldn't stoop to that level of bat
tie even if he knew how. "Dave!
she called down. Dave! Wait!'
MAYBE you don't like that guy"
Bill said suavely. "Or you wouldn't
be wanting him to feel bad" He
crossed to her and gripped her shoul-
ders. Il told you you could have
trouble if you wanted it"
Then Dave burst into the room,
Evening star., 1943-06-20

Dave slapped him again. "Is your
head clear?"
II Il can understand.
Dawes grip on his shoulder made
Bill cringe. "Bill, if you ever get
close enough to me again, I'm going
to tear you apart with my hare
hands. Understand? And you can't
hire a couple of rats to get even for
you. Back home l got four brothers.
I'm the runt of the family. If any
thing should happen to me, my
brothers amt going to listen to
what the law says; they won't care
if you can prove you were hundred
miles away at the time. They'll get
you, and just tear you apart. And if
those four brothers amt enough.
there's flock of cousins and some
uncles. You understand"
Cringing, Bill nodded.
Don't you forget" Dave said.
and his great fist crashed once more.
As THEY drove east next morning
- heading for Reno, where you
don't have to wait three days to get
married = Dave breathed on the
knuckles of his right fist, and OBJ
served: "A guy like Bill, there's just
one way to handle him - scare him
- and he'll stay scared"
you were wonderful, Dave. But
what if he finds out you hasen't any
family, haven't any brothers or cous-
ins? Dave, if he ever finds out you
were a founding baby -"
Honey" Dave said, chucklirg,
Bill is too scared to get close
enough to find out anything. He'll
stay as far away from me as he can
get. BY the time he gets over being
scared-why, gosh. honey"-Dave
gulped, his face flooding pink -
''by that time, why, there might
be family"

Your Christmas tree and
the decorations on it are fire
hazards which you will want
to watch most carefully this
Christmas. Remember when
you bring a tree into your
house it is going to dry up. A
fresh cut tree will not take fire
any more easily during the
first day or two than would
the evergreen shrubs growing
outside but it becomes a more
serious fire hazard every
hour. At the end of a week, it
will be highly fammable.
1t is best to bring in fresh tree as
short a time before Christmas as
possible, and to remove it as soon
afterwards as you can. If you do
this, ordinary precautions should
prevent it from taking fire. Fami-
men who want to keep their trees
from a week or more before Christ
mas until after New Years day
need observe special safeguards to
keep it reasonably safe.
Place in Pan of Water.
The tree can be kept fresh if you
set it up in a pan of water. Cut off
the base of the tree at an angle at
least one inch above the original
cut and keep it standing in water
during the entire period that the
tree is in the house, adding water
to the jar or tub in which the tree
stands at intervals to keep the wa
ter level always above the cut. This
method when used with fresh trees
reduces the fammability as effec-
lively as any fireproofng chemicals.
Chemicals may cause the tree to
turn brown or yellow or to lose its
needles
The place you select for your tree
should be well away from stoves, ra-
diators, and other sources of heat.
The tree should be we'll secured
against falling by inconspicuous
wires holding it against the wall.
The tree should be SO placed that
standing or fallen, it cannot block
a doorway which might be needed
to escape from the room.
Candle Still Takes Toll.
The candle for Christmas is still
taking its yearly toll of lives and
property. It is found on Christmas
trees more rarely every year, but
none the less, it is used unwisely in
many places during the Christmas
season. Open fame lighting is en-
tirely out of place unless you set
up your candles and lamps well
away from Christmas trees, win
dow curtains, and Durable decora-
tons, have a fire extinguisher' handy
and then keep constant watch over
them.
But it is important that your
Christmas lights be in good condi-
ton. A short circuit in worn wir-
ing might be sufficient to start the
tree burning. Sets bearing the label
of Underwriters Laboratories. Inc,
have been tested for fire hazard and
pronounced safe by experts.
