ESDAY, MAY 10, 1933. eosvesoesr The White Cockatoo by Mignon G. Eberhart’ “ SYNOPSIS: Jim Sundean has discovered evidence that seems to connect the man known as Father Robart with the plot to steal the token with which Sue Tally must prove her claim to @ great fortune. Perhaps he also has @ connection with the two murders that have horrified the guests of the small French hotel that has been their scene, But when he and David 2Lorn, the detective, are ready to in~ form the police, they learn that Father Robart ‘has disappeared. Then there is news. Chapter 33 THE COFFIN iE police had discovered the owner of the gun. Tt'was a man by the nathe of Michael Stravsky, And a photograph of the dead man had been mailed to the gunsmith, and he had said that without a doubt it was a picture of the man who bought the gun. “That must be the murdered man, then,” I said. “Michael Stravsky.” Lorn nodded. His face was im- passive as-ever, but I think he was actually as éxcited over the develop- ment as I was, “And it was a bullet from that gun that killed Marcel?” “Yes. They extracted two bullets, and it was that gun.” “But the man was dead long be- fore that gun was used to kill Mar- cel. If the murdered man was Stravsky that very fact links the murderer of Stravsky and the taur- derer of Marcel. Stravsky’s mur derer searched his pockets, took the dead man’s gun, among other things, and Sater user the gun on little Mar- cel.” “Perhaps,” said Lorn. “He would in getting rid of it as he did, it could do him no damage. 1 tell you, Sundean, this is an exceptional criminal. It took nerve to do that.” “It took,” I said hotly, thinking of Meee I thought the gun iw Fite nattepetatre t met Sue, she looked tired and pale even in that dim light, and hadn’t, she told me, slept well. “T felt * she gail and then ‘a little tremulously, en a eee Y’S BIRTHDAYS @ seceese Judge Curtis D, Wilbar, of San Francisco, of the 9th Federal Cir. cuit, onetime Secretary of the Na- vy, born at Boonesville, Towa, 66 Years age.

It was very sudden, and it caught me off my guard, and there was no one near, and the corridor was dark and empty and still, and my arms were tight around her and holding her close to me, and her hair brushed my face. And immediately the empty cor- ridors and the hotel and the world ceased to exist, and there was noth- ing but darkness and. warmth and Sue in my arms with my moth against her mouth. Then Sue was @ small figure in the darkness apart from me, her face a white blur. And I was trying to steady my voice so I could speak, and my heart was pounding as if Td been running a race, and 1 wanted her in my arms again, and I dreaded what she might say. It's true that:a kiss is:only a kiss. But the girl was Sue. It made such a difference. “I'm sorry.” ‘$ a I waited, I thought of trying further apology. Then allat once Sue spoke, She spoke in @ breathless little voice that I'd never heard before.
