CHAPTER XX. 't OU are the young man ‘ who gets—and ~forgats—his stories. I b2gin to regard you as a suspicious charac- ter. What do you want this #me?” The doctor’s smile took !he: sting from his words, as it had a way | of doing. “You're right—both ways.” Peter was unabashed. “I've got to get a story| end I do want something from you.| T'd like to go with you when you in- | terview Mrs. Kane. I want to get a| light on her personality. As to what she says, I won't use anything without your permission, of course.” | “Several other persons share your desire for light.” Dr. Cavanaugh ob- served, “but I understand that so far it hasn't been gratified. Why don't you et your interview direct?” h: added crisply. | “Because Capt. Davis won't let me. But, of course, if I went with you| there’'d be nothing said.” | “That’s the second time you've told | me the truth when subterfuge would | have ssemed easy and more profitable. | 1 2lmost suspect it's a habit with you.” | Dr. Cavanaugh's deliberate em- phatic voice was almost a draw Well, | young man, you've flattered one of my | weaknesses. I had sufficient curiosity | to read your story. If anybody tells| you that he never reads what's written | 2bout him you may put him down as a | liar or a colossal egotist who thinks that God alone is qualified to have an opinion on him—besides himself. And you didn’t once call me a criminologist. Perhaps a scientific training makes pedants of us all. I confess to a twinge of resentment whenever I am called a criminologist.” “Sheer luck.” said the grinning Peter. “Call it luck—or inspired accuracy. Anyway, I'll admit I liked it. You see, I never disguise myself or my purposes. I lay all my cards on the table—and | let the other fellow play them. I'm not even interested in catching crim- inals, as such, though I'm_interested in understanding my fellow human- be- ings. This little hobby of identifica~ tion merely helps sometimes to locate the subject whose mental processes in- terest me. I suppose,” he went on, without change of tone, “since I've in- flicted all this explanation on you the least T can do is to let you come along.” “Whoop-ee!” crowed Peter. With a smile, half-indulgent, half- wistful, the doctor led the way down the corridor to the jail elevator. Youth! When a man looks thus ten- derly on the ebullience of youth, Dr. Cavanaugh reflected, he is growing old. ‘The time had long passed when any of life's incidents could make _him shout “Whoopee!” The greatest psy- chiatrist in America glanced briefly at the newspaper reporter, whose pay en- velope held $50 every week, and sighed & sigh of reminiscent envy. ‘The long bare room in the women’s quarters of the city jail smelled vaguely of whitewash. The matron, with clanking keys at her belt and an air professionally maternal, ushered in Mrs. Kane and faded into a corner. Peter grinned. It must be rather a strain to assume a motherly air with the redoubtable person who marched to the table when the two men had seated themselves, and faced them with a bel- Hgerent stare. “Mrs. Kane,” Dr. Cavanaugh began. with an air of kindly severity, “you have made a mistake in judgment.” “You ain't got a thing on me, not & thing,” Mrs. Kane snapped, her teeth | we always have to have attractive pic- | flashing up and down with more than | tures to go with our stories.

Things might be rather un- comfortable for you'if you refuse to admit that the hair is 2 Mrs. Kane's moutn opened, closed closer egain with a click, and finallv reopened. “Anybody that thinks I'd harm Miss O'Shay is a fool,” she muttered. “All you policemen are fools, anyway.” “Not necessarily,” Dr. Cavanaugh argued, cheerfully. “But I'm not a po- liceman. Let us suppese that you have Miss O'Shay's best interests at heart— that you believed you were best pro- tecting her by refusing to tell any of her affairs to outsiders. In the cir- cumstances, I still think you made a mistak? in judgment. The police are bound to find out—or, at least, to try to find out. And in trying they may uncover—all sorts of things.” Mrs. Kane, who had stood rigidly erect, sat down very suddenly i the chair by the table, as if a scaffolding under her voluminous garments had collapsed. She had had a sleepless night, and. despite her determination, she looked badgered and perturbed. The doctor made no move to go to her as- | sistance, but continued to look across sistant at her with steady, placid gaze. He didn't fuss: he didn’t shout at her and point his finger; he didn’t put words into her mouth and demand. “Isn’t that so?” He seemed to have some sense. Wiy .ot tell him—a little, any- how? Enough to get those questioning men away from her—those men to whom she would not talk, though the- kept at her for a year! “They'd better have left things alone.” e protested, sulkily. “What good does it do to rake everything up? If that was Miss O'Shay who was found in the marsh, you can bet there was some scandal back of it. There always was,” she added bitterly, and followed her | words with a vehement click, like the snavping spring of a trap. “Still.” the doctor suggested. tran- quilly: “some scandals are worse than others. “I suppos2 they are,” Mrs. Kane ad- mitted grudgingly. The doctor continued to gaze serenely | into space. Peter was seribbling inde- cipherable notes on a sheet of copy paper held under the table. The heavy | dulging in what she euphemistically | called a “cat nap” in the corner. was the only audible sound in the room. Mrs. Kane also closed her ey . for a moment, but when she opened them were alert, with the sharp glint 1 tell you this, if you want to know,” she said acridly, “though I never thought as I'd live to tell it to a single soul. That whipper-snapper, Mr. Elis~ worth, didn't want to marry Miss O'Shay. He was wild about her at first—and he wasn't the only man who was that, I'm telling you—and then he cooled off and wanted to back out. They had a terrible fight. But anybody that gets into a fight with Miss O'Shay knows he's been in a real scrap. He flung out and said he never wanted to see her again. And then she went to a lawyer, she did, and drew up the nicest little breach-of-promise suit you ever saw. You bet she'd got it all down in writing, too, and had kept the let- ters. It took just one good look at that legal document and the evidence to bring him round. She kept the papers, just to remind him if he ever got funny, and they're in the wall safe in her bedroom to this day. If you're looking for one person that wouldn't be too displeased to have Miss O'Shay out of the way, it strikes me you'd better page Mr. Don Ellsworth!” Swishing her long skirts, Mrs. Kane rose to her feet, with what could only be described as a flounce. - “Thanks,” said Dr. Cavanaugh, quite unruffied by this outburst. “I'll do that. I am sure that your information will prove extremely valuable.” Peter had also risen to his feet. There wasn’'t a chance in a hundred, he told | himself, but you never could tell till | you tried. “By the way, Mrs. Kane” he said, | speaking for the first time; “I've a | camera man waiting outside the door.

Delegates were present from | | various detachments of the league scat- | tered throughout the country. Maj. Gen. John A. Lejeune was re-elected | national commandant. | Brig. Gen. Benjamin H. Fuller, as- to the major general com- | mandant, will be the honor guest of the | Marine Corps Reserve Officers’ Asso- ;ciatlon of the District of Columbia at| | their dinner November 13 at the Occi- ,demal Hotel. First Lieut. Carl Gardner will have | his resignation accepted by the depart- !ment, effective as of November 13. ‘Lieut, Gardner has been editor of the | corps monthly, | several past years. | Several thousand feet of films show- | ling the activities of the Marine Corps | reservists during their last encamp- ! ments at San Diego, Calif, and Quan- |tico, Va.. respectively. are to be shown |during the convening of the various Reserve Officers’ Assoclations scattered | throughout the country. It is under- !stood that their first release will be be- ! fore the members of the Marine Corps { Reserve Officers’ | of Columbia Branch. The Marine Corps examining board | for the appointment and promotion of | com hissioned officers of the Marine | Fuller, president, and Capt. L. C. Burn- | ham, recorder. was in session at head- i quarters of the corps during the past 'week. In view that new Reserve com- panies have been established at Wor- cester, Mass.; St. Paul, Minn.; Milwau- | kee, Wis.; Seattle, Wash., and Chicago, | 1L, respectively, it is understood a num- |ber of appointments and promotions will have been deliberated and acted upon, subject to the approval of Maj. Gen. John A. Lejeune, commandant, erz the board adjourns to meet again next year. It is understood that strong efforts | will shortly be brought to the fore in an endeavor to have the present sets of commissioned officers’ quarters located in the local navy yard condemned. | Erected prior to the” Civil War, they have long outlived their usefulness, and in many instances commissioned offi- cers are compelled to live in cramped. reconstructed quarters in order to com- ply with the general policy of economy. Should any improvement in the situa- tion ensue, it is understood’ that the medical officers of the Navy will have been responsible therefor, and inasmuch as the general plan is understood to in- clude quarters for Marine cfficers at- tached to the yard, in addition to naval officers’ quarters, all concerned are on the qui vive. Capt. J. H. Platt, heretofore attached to the Marine Corps Recruiting Bureau, Philadelphia, Pa.. has been ordered to duty at the Marine Barracks here. ‘The examining board for the promo- tion of commissioned officers of the Marine Corps Reserves will again be in | session this week. It is understood all motions” will have been based upon itherto demonstrated proficiency as may have been rendered at San Diego, Calif., or Quantico, Va., respectively during the recent Reserve encamp- ments. . . Brig. Gen. Rufus H. Lane, adjutant and inspector of the corps, had his office banked with flowers last Wednes- day, his fifty-eighth birthday. The gen- eral was rather “stumped” when he was requested to make a few remarks to the assembled clerks in the big A. and I. |room, third wing, -third floor, of the Navy Building. LONGER LIFE SPAN SEEN. ATLANTA, Ga. (#).—Four main causes for the increase in life's aver- age span are cited by Dr. Lewellys F. Barker, president of the Interstate | Post-Graduate Medical Association of North America. All four causes result in disease pre- vention, he says. They are: Endowment of clinics to discover causes of disease, attraction of greater number of young men of ability to this work, rise in the average level of training among practic- ing physicians and periodic health ex- aminations. HOUSE & HERRMANN And now, T suppose, | the Leatherneck, for| Association, District | | Corps Reserve, Brig. Gen. Benjamin H. | Give Diamond Tires a Trial | The effect of the decision of the controller general of the United States that .members of the rifle team of the Natlonal Guard of the District of Columbia who are employes of the | Federal Government are not entitled | to military leave while attending rifle | matches outside of the District of Co- | lumbia is being studied by officers of the organization. While it has not been indicated directly what will be done to save the civil employment pay | which has been checked as a result of ‘!he controller'’s decision, there is a | probability that the matter will be brought to the attention of Congress | again this year. Officers of the Guard thought that they had the members of the Guard protected when a law was passed au- | thorizing their transportation expenses to and from Washington for the pur- | pose of participating in the matches, | but the controller held that. while it | covered that, it did not automatically provide that’ they should receive pay | while at the matches. Officers of the Guard contend that this service is a part of the training of officers, and Federal pay while away on this duty | | was intended to encourage them in | their military work. On the other hand, it was pointed out that other employes of the Gov- ernment who take interest in rifle shooting and who attend the national matches do not receive military leave, but must take their annual leave in order to participate. But the officers of the Guard contend that his cannot be looked upon as a discrimination, because of the fact that the military man gives his time in training, apparently forget- ting that the civilian also spends his own time on the nearby ranges in order to perfect his markmanship. The particular decision has first hit Capt. J. C. Jensen, Ordnance Depart- | ment, in charge of the rifle practice in the local Guard, trainer and cap- tain of the rifle team which represent- ed the local organization at the national matches. Although the decision was answered for the Secretary of the Navy, as Jensen is an employe of the local navy vard, it applies equally to all Fed- eral employes, but it 1; understood that so far none of the other members of the team who are Government employes have had their pay checked. Before the Guardsmen can collect their civilian pay, under the con- troller’s decision, it is very apparent that there will have to be a change in the law, and it is probable that steps will be made to get it corrected at the coming session of Congress. Other- wise, there is a fear that the organi- zation might find it hard to get its best shots to remain on the team, if they do not get their civilian leave with pay. In order not to keep the men away from participation in the election night celebrations expected downtown, orders have been issued that drills for all or- ganizations scheduled for Tuesday night are suspended, it was announced at brigade headquarters. ‘The indoor small-caliber target range which has been constructed under the armory building for several years has been materially improved. The earthen works there, which had much the ap- pearance of fleld trenches, have becn covered with concrete and cement floors have been laid, so that the men will be able to carry on their rifle practice with more comfort. Second Lieut. Henry C. Espey, Com- pany E, 121st Engineers, and one of the crack rifle shots of the Guard, has tendered his resignation as an officer. Pending the acceptance of the resigna- tion by the President of the United States Lieut. Espey has been ordered transferred to the unassigned list. He is a lawyer by profession and the rea- son given at brigade headquarters for his resignation was pressure of his pri- vate business affairs. ‘The Militia Bureau of the War De- artment has called to the attention of local and other Guard organizations the desirability of officers and men taking the Army correspondence courses for 1928-1929, With reference to en- rollment in these courses, it was pointed out, it should be noted that upon presentation of satisfactory evidence of proficiency in the subject matter of any subcourse the corps area commander 1§ authorized to enroll a student in the next higher subcourse up to and in- cluding the advanced course, This pro- vision enables qualified National Guard mmnnel to pursue the phase of train- g desired without prior actual com- pletion* of all other correspondence courses listed in advance of them. In the absence of other records to the con- trary, corps area commanders have been instructed to accept the recom- mendations of the Regular Army in- structors as to the proper courses or subcourses to be pursued by National Guard personnel under their super- vision. The Militia Bureau has made ar- rangements to furnish, through corps area commanders, all texts in addition to lesson sheets as previously provided, for use by students in the Army corre- spondence courses enrolled from among personnel in the National Guard. Enlisted men, upon recommendation of organization commanders, may be enrolled in appropriate courses under the same conditions as to furnishing texts and materials as commissioned officers. Corps area commanders are request- ed to make special effort through in- structors and otherwise to impress the National Guard commissioned person- nel under their supervision with the advantages to be gained from pursuing correspondence courses in addition to the regular performance of their Na- tional Guard duties, this especially as a means to fit them for examination HOUSE & HERRMAN for promotion. It is suggested that where sufficient interest cannot be aroused in correspondence courses as such the lessons thereof may be found to be of great value as guides and les- son topics for armory schools. Correspondence courses, it was add- ed, are especially valuable for officers contemplating attendance at service schools, and their standing at such schools will be materially increased by such previous preparation. Completion of subcourses 1, 2. 3 and 4 of Command and General Staff course is required as a prerequisite to attendance at the Command and General Staff School at Fort Leavenwortn, Kans. Private Carl D. Shiner, Medical Corps Detachment, 260th Coast Artillery, has been honorably discharged, on account of his removal from the District. The following have been ordered transferred from the active to the re- serve rosters of their respective organi- zations, on account of attendance at schools interfering with their military duties: Staff Sergt. Ralph D. Remley, Headquarters Detachment, 29th Divi- sion, Special Troops, and Private Albert J. Sherman, Headquarters Detachment, 20th Division. Special Troops. Sergt. Francis F. Cole, Company A. 121st Engineers, has been reduced to rivate. The following promotions in Com- pany A, 121st Engineers, have been or- dered: Pvts. Thomas A. McGaffin and Milton A. Smith to be sergeants, and Pvts. (first class) George Jones, Charles E. Nichcls, Louis 1. Watkins, John J. Many and Herman J. Cain to be corporals. The superior classification in the at- tendance line-up of the National Guard organizations during the past week was shown to be vacant when the figures were compiled at brigade headquarters. However, the Quartermaster Corps De- tachment still heads the list in at- tendance, although in the excellent classification, with a percentage of 83.33. The other two organizations in this group are the Headquarters De- tachment, 260th Coast Artillery, with a percentage of 8333, and the Headquar- ters and Servicc Company, 121st Engi- neers, with an attendance percentage of 81.82. In order to get in the superior classification the organizations must have an attendance of 90 per cent of their strength or better. The figures generally show a decline in attendance throughout the entire organization. In the very satisfactory classification are the following organizations, with percentages: Headquarters Detachment, 20th Division, 76.66: Medical Detach- ment, 260th Coast Artillery, 75: Com- pany A, 372d Infantry, 74.61, and band, 121st Engineers, 71.43. Company D, 121st Engineers, heads a m\l{n of three organizations in the classificatlon of satisfactory, with a per- centage of 65.71. The other two are Company F. 121st Engineers, 65.67, and the Medical Department Detachment, 121st Engineers, totaling 60. This latter organization has shown a remarkable pick-up in its attendance during the past week, it having for the past sev- | eral weeks been in the very unsatisfac- | tory attendance classification. | In the unsatisfactory group are five ;nrunniuuons. headed by Company B, 121st Engineers, with a percentage of 57.57, and the others as follows: Com- pany A, 121st Engineers, 57.14; Head- | quarters Detachment, Special Troops, 55.55; Company C. 12Ist Engineers, 55.22, and 29th Military Police Com- pany, 53.45. Four organizations are in the very un- satisfactory attendance group. They are Battery C, 260th Coast Artillery with a percentage of 49.02: Company E, | 121st Engineers, 47.22; Battery B, 260th | Coast. Artillery, 46.15, and Battery A, | 260th Coast Artillery, 42. Orders have been issued for the taking of the annual inventory of Fed- eral property in the possession of the | National ‘Guard by the Regular Army instructor on the following dates: Com- pany A. 372d Infantry, November 13; 20th Military Police Company, Novem- ber 14; Company A, 12Ist Engineers, and Company F, 121st Engineers, No- vember 15; Headquarters Detachment, 29th Division. and Headquarters De- tachment, 29th Division, Special Troops, November 16; Battery B and Hea quarters Detachment, 260th Coast Ar- tillery, November 21; Company B, 121st’ Engineers, and Medical Department Detachment, 260th Coast Artillery, No- vember 22: Batteries A and B, 260th Coast Artillery, November 23; United States property and disbursing officer’s storehouse, November 24: Medical De- partment Detachment, 121st Eneineers, November 26; Headquarters and Serv- ice Company, 121st Engineers, and Company E, 121st Engineers, November 27; Companies C and D, 12Ist En- gineers, Novembe!
