HAR- OLD, for his money. Harold fears HUCK CONNOR, who is black- mailing him over a forged check. Huck is infatuated with Pamcla and when she announces her en- gagement to Stephen frames him for the theft of an auto and causes his arrest. Pamela drops Stephen, but Mildred tries to get Ahim out of jail. Harold had once told her he feared Huck and that he had threatened to get rid of Stephen to keep him from ic Pamela. Mildred determines to force Harold to help her and is shocked to hear of his death— apparently accidental. She tells Stephen her suspicions, but they have no proof and it seems hope- less, In desperation, Mildred goes to MR. JUDSON, who takes her to headquarters to tell her story. Judson bails Stephen out and Pa- mela begs his forgiveness. Going from the jail to his hotel with a detective, Stephen realizes they are followed. As the cars pass close, the thug shoots at the de- tective but misses as the latter shatters his wrist with a quick shot, thereby saving Stephen.

Even his voice stuck in his throat as he whispered: “shot?” Mr. Judson looked at his white, constricted face, and told himself that Stephen was a hound. He loved one girl and was preparing to marry another—a rich girl. “Just a slight wound,” the inquis- itor said, putting an end to the tor- ture. He was satisfied now. “Where is she?” Stephen asked hoarsely. “In a hospital, but she’s going home tonight.” Stephen jumped to his feet. “She mustn't be allowed to leave! They'll get her before she’s gone a block!” “She'll be protected,” Mr. Judson assured him. “Sit down.” “I'd like to see her,” Stephen said almost pleadingly. Mr. Judson shook his head. “They sent me away to let her rest,” he said. “She's been under a severe strain for weeks. You know that. This shock has unnerved her.” “How did it happen” Stephen asked. Mr. Judson told him as much as he knew of the shooting. Mildred’s account of it had been very sketchy. “That was the second attempt at murder this afternoon,” Ocrndorf spoke up. Mr. Judson turned to him with a rapid fire of questions. “Mr. Armitage here,” the lawyer said and nodded to Stephen. Then he told his client of the shooting on First avenue. “x * * “They mean to get rid of your wit- nesses,” he ended. “Which intention suggests that they do not know the Police have the thumbprint of the murderer, assuming it is his thumb- print on the belt.” Mr. Judson turned back to Stephen and his voice was less harsh as he said: “Miss Lawrence begged me to warn you of your danger. But I'm sure you realize that it is grave.” Stephen nodded. “You interrupted me,” Ocerndorf said to Mr. Judson. “I was about to point out that it is necessary in order to protect these two, Mr. Armitage al OUT OUR WAY By Williams | YOU LISSENING COT?

I'd advise that no time be lost in questioning him. Give him the third degree if necessary to make him reveal Huck Connor's where- abouts.” “That's sense,” Mr. Judson agreed. “Will you come with us, Armitage?” Stephen hesitated. “You're sure they won't Ict me see Miss Law- rence?” “I'm positive they won't. along. Stephen went, quite forgetting that Pamela was waiting for him. They rode downtown in a taxi. Mr. Judson explained that he had placed his own car at Mildred’s disposal and hired a detective to accompany her to her home and act as a bodyguard while she remained in danger. Stephen, remembering what Frean had done for him, was greatly re- Heved. “Markeson is sending one of his own men as well,” Mr. Judson added, “so she will be well guarded.” “God, I hope this man will talk,” Stephen exclaimed as they neared their destination. But his hope was not destined to come to fruition. The man did-not talk. He could not. For Huck’s hid- ing place was not known to him. Mr. Judson had gone home to have dinner with his wife, Pamela and Stephen, and Oerndorf was ensconed in the bosom of his family up in Bronxville long before the question- ing was over. se The taxi owner was released at last. There was nothing on the records against him. The police were forced to conclude that the theft of his cab had been a bona fide larceny. He left, cursing and declaring his hatred and defiance of them, though the strength that remained in him was small. He knew he was followed. “Tail me, damn you,” he shrieked, turn- ing and shaking his fist at his un- seen shadower. Mr. Judson got the news of the failure to make him talk from the Police by telephone. “You'd better send for your things and remain here,” he said to Ste- phen. Stephen was disinclined to accept the invitation. “Well, then,” Mr. Judson said, “you are under police orders to do so.” He let Stephen catch a glance which Pamela did not see and the young man understood that there was some- thing her father did not care to make known to her. He gave in with a poor show of grace. Since returning from the po- lice station where the owner of the taxi had been taken Stephen had ‘Come his heart but he was touched by her emotion. “Poor kid,” he murmured and Pressed her closer. Her father, returning, entered the room before Pamela drew herself out of Stephen's embrace. He stood for a moment surveying the young couple with a perplexed ex- pression on his weary features. Could he have been mistaken? Had the coldness he believed he saw in 8te- phen been only the result of shy- ness? But Stephen's interest in Mil- He got no further in his thoughts. Stephen saw him and quickly thrust Pamela away. “Here's the key to your room,” Mr. Judson said, advancing with out- stretched hand. “Your things have arrived. ‘The management of the ho- tel where you lived had them placed in storage. I hope you will find everything in order.” “Thank you,” Stephen said. “There was nothing important; mostly cloth- ing.. One of the boys from Mettle’s was kind enough to look after the things I valued.” He turned to Pamela to say good- night, remarking that he would like to unpack his things. In reality he wanted to get away and telephone Mildred’s home to inquire how she was getting along. An earlier call, put through by Mr. Judson, had ac- quainted them with her safe arrival at the flat. “You can't go so carly,” Pamela declared stormily. “Why, we haven't settled anything about our wedding!” Her father looked at her with more sternness than she was accustomed to see on his face. “Mr. Armitage has had a very ex- citing day, Pam,” he said quietly. “Besides, I want to have a talk with you, alone.” (To Be Continued) TRINITY ENGLISH LUTHERAN Avenue C at Seventh.

But Mr. Judson was not willing to let him out of his sight. He feared Stephen's disregard of danger. What- ever else he might think of him he did_not consider Stephen a coward. And he had no desire to lose a valu- able witness. Aside from that he wanted to see Stephen and Pamela together, to study them, and learn, if possible, how much Stephen meant to his daughter. Before the dinner was over he con- cluded that he was right about Ste- phen beyond question. The young man seemed oblivious to Pamela's charm.
