LOVE AND TERROR DON'T MIX
Continued from preceding page

but his trigger finger began to
sweat as it always did.
He heard a new sound then,
heavy and rhythmic but muffied
almost to silence. 1t was a
moment before he realized that
it was Chang Choy's heartbeat,
close by his right ear as they
crouched together under a can
opy of huge wild banana leaves.
A broken heart maybe, but
dancing at the near approach
of revenge.
UNTIL that moment a jungle
peak had screened the little
river from the newly risen sun;
but now yellow sunlight fell on
the branches at the top Of the
opposite bank and began to
cascade slowly, like molten
lava, towards the water. On its
way it threw long shadows of
the approaching party down
the clay path to the stream
several seconds before their
figures appeared.
Their pointed shadows slid
slowly down the path and then
they emerged from behind a
screen of giant Towering
grasses. First a youth even
Simmer than Chang Choy,
overburdened with an old Jap
anese rifle.
Next a stiff. Older figure with
a bitter gray mask of a face
under the red-starred green
bandit cap. carrying a captured
American carbine. And finally
a stout, short figure in a differ
ent shade and cut of jungle
green.
LLOYD had planned to open
fire when the delegate, if he
could be spotted, reached the
foot of the game path which
entered the shallow water. He
could do that if the group
weren't strung out sufficiently
to bring the leading guide too
close to their own lightly
screened positions. His fire
would be the signal for Jaafar
and Omar to open up. This
was ideal, only three in the
party and SO unwisely punched
that they offered a concen-
trated target.
AS the young terrorist led
the way down the steep clay
track to the waters edge, Lloyd
took the first pressure on his
trigger. The platoon COM
mander turned to give a sup
porting hand to the stout dele
gate down the slippery path.
For once, Lloyd reflected
grimly, absolutely according to
plan. :.
He opened fire.
For a wild fraction Of a Sec
Ond he had no idea of what had

him.
Then his brain snapped into
focus. 1t was his own fire that
was drilling those holes through
the leaf. His carbine had been
jerked violently off-aim just as
he opened fire, throwing his
whole body backwards. And
it was Chang Choy who had
done it. The young devil was
just snatching his burnt hand
from the hot barrel of the
carbine.
The suspicion that Chang
Choy had led him into a trap
flashed only halfway through
his mind before he threw it out.
He trusted the boy. No, Of
course he'd simply gone mad
at sight of the platoon COM
mander and grabbed at the gun
to snatch revenge into his own
hands.
Crazy young TooI!" He
could almost have turned the
gun on him.
Across the river the delegate
had fallen in the mud. Either
he'd merely slipped or else he'd
been wounded by the corporal's
or Omar's fire. The platoon
commander was trying to drag
him into cover. Lloyd steadied
himself and opened up on the
pair Of them as they rolled into
the scrub that edged the water.
Three seconds later, silence
returned to the valley. The
delegates twisted foot pro-
truded from the scrub and
the platoon commander, the
starred cap fallen from his
cloSe-shaven head, had rolled
into the shadows and lay quite
still. The young terrorist had
vanished.
Not until he'd taken the
sealed plastic wallet Of papers
from the delegates bush jacket
pocket did Lloyd remember
Chang Choy, and then it was
with a quick frown and re-
newed fury. His crazy antic
could have sunk them all. But
the furious outburst was
choked in his throat as he
turned back across the river
and saw how it was with the
boy.
liz WAS lying slack and still,
his eyes closed. Even Jaafar
and Omar, who stood over
him, had seen that he was far
beyond any first aid. Shaken
and curiously moved, Lloyd
bent over the dying boy. Before
he could think Of anything to
say, Chang Choy opened his
eyes and spoke.

And Lloyd finally under
stood why his gun had been
wrenched off-aim in the

The business on the railroad
has tripled since a period of two
or three years ago. Shipments are
still on the increase and it fol-
lows that other lines of business
are bound to go greater activity
as the result. A lot of business is
now coming from the plants, in
cluding numerous canneries that
have sprung up along the line and
promises to give the carriers more
freight than they will be able to
handle.

The light showers have helped
the parched crops some but lot
more rain could be used to great
advantage. The gardens were
found to be drying up. The lima
bean crop was rated light one,
but now since the shower many
growers believe that a good-sized
crop will mature in due time. The
onion beds have dried up and the
squash patch has been dead for
two or three weeks. A copious
shower lasting for twenty hours
would not hurt anything, say the
growers.
Friends are still wondering
whatever became of ]. Alfree, a
young farmer who seemed to
make progress at farming until
one day in the spring of 1929 he
closed out his accounts with bus
inessmen who sold him farm
machinery, and then evidently
started FOR the West. The only
trace he left behind was the fact
that he boarded a train at Elk

state. He has several brothers and
sisters living in this locality.
There have been five or six other
men who disappeared from around
here and they are supposed to
have gone out West but no traces
have been found leading to their
whereabouts.
Mrs. w. P. Wilson, who has
been spending several Days in
Wilmington, returned home on
Saturday. While there she re-
ceived treatment for an injured

accident three weeks ago. At this

that she is very much improved.

a blind date is when you expect
to meet a vision and she turns
out to be a sight.
George Chambers of Elgin, Ill.
was a visitor here on Monday.
A good way to make friends is
to say something nice about them
and when cutting remarks are
made, move out of the crowd at
quick speed.
: George Smith of Pittston, Pa.
was a visitor in town on Satur-
day.
Workmen are building a single
track and think that it will handle
the transportation business ok.
That is like expecting a burro to
pull a forty ton truck over
rocky highway.
Ed Smith thinks everybody will
soon get to be like Nellie Bly,.
They want to travel every day
and every night. He never finds
his hired girl at his house.
A few days ago we spoke of
the fine quality of Mr.. Myers B.
Donovan who was a track fore
man here for about thirty-five
years. Another good citizen was
James w. Webber who was a
track foreman at Blackbird sta
ton for number of years. Mr..
Webber was another man with a
real heart and always wanted to
help his fellow-man from any dis
tress that might seize upon him
and change his whole life. Mr..
Webber was a kindly gentleman
and he had legions of friends. He
was also kind to the men who
worked for him and they never
forgot his real friendless. 1t is
safe to say that he was known
and liked over the whole division
of the Delaware Railroad.
The death of Mayor Thomas r.
Newman of Middletown gave the
whole of this part of the state a
real shock and he will be remem-
bered with sorrow for years to
some. He was a big help to Mid
dletown and always took the lead
in serving the public no matter
what the kind or capacity of the
job to be involved for the public
good. He was an example of how
to uplift the common good and he
served well in whatever he had
in mind to do. A true friend
whether in need or not, his keen
desire to help everyone was mani
tested in all of his public service.
His fine service drew attention be-
cause of real merit and we know
that everybody liked Tom New
nam. One day he walked a mile
to see a sick friend and he cheer
lilly made the trip and said he
would do it anytime for the good
of 3 good friend.
Mr.. William Starr has retired
from the big business circle and
will spend the balance of his days
at Cecilton, Md, where he lives.
For 40 years he served the Acme
Stores Co. remarkably well and
when he departed from the COM
pany was given number of fine
gifts by the company and his
friends in many other places.
Getting the correct score from
last weeks game was as hard as
trying to run mile in a minute.
Nobody seemed to remember what
the score was but all admitted
that the home club lost.
A day of reverence and sun
shine greeted the good attendance
of worshippers at I'm m n u e !
