Johnny tells her that he is . ; '---Meudiug Perry Hp to Sing Sing for ten years. ' " . • now oo on With tbb story On the train that took McCloud « > and Perry to Sing Sing, rode Lola. had kept an eye on them, al- ' though they were totally unaware her presence. The girl pur- '* ' ' chased a magazine, looked through handed it. back in exchange for . another, and at the same time sug- , gested that McCloud and Perry might like it. The butcher went over to them and Perry purchased the book that Lola returned. Bis fingers had got the feel of a file through the pages. McCloud leaned back and closed v.£; his eyes as though he intended to • ."/..'.take a nap. "I hope there's a nice, •^J;.-:^'!*ongr serial in that magazine--'cause ; * ' . ;v you'll have plenty, of time to read it." "That's a sweet thought. I appreciate it." Just then Lola passed by them. McCloud noticed her and asked her The train had started si jwly. Cloud had lost his prisoner, but lt was some minutes before he dill* covered it. A few days later every police station had a picture of Georgie posted with the caption. • "Wanted for Robbery." "Why don't you stick Lola's m\i(i up there alongside of Geo^e's?"1 O'Neill inquired. ( " 'Cause she hasn't done anything1 wrong," McCloud replied. O'Neill registered disgust and spoke with elaborate sarcasm. "I suppose helping a criminal to escape is just, high girlish spirits, huh? No kidding, Johnnie--I can just hear the hardening of your arteries as I stand here. Lettin* Perry give you the slip was bad enough, but what didya want to let her get away for?" " 'Cause I can't go fishing with* t bait." , McCloud became grim, find her. And when 1 find her III find him. Then I'll send him back to prison, and I'll marry her." McCloud turned on his heel and/ left the room. A hunch had come to him that Lola might go to the music store at which she got all. her orchestrations. Anyway, ,,he was determined to run down the idea. It was no go. however, for she had not been there. -McCtbud asked the dealer to inform him It •he should call, and left. Then ha.' went to the, post office and showed her picture to the special cop. "If 6he should come to the GenV eral Delivery window for mail, grab her an' get right in touch with n.e" McCloud Instructed the man. Then he went over to interview Lola's landlady. The girl had not been there either. Like the othevs. °n, 1/n this tcay Georpie was just as v%vch of a prisoner as he would hove T- been fastened to McCloud^ (Posed by Jack Holt and Gavin Gordon) WO Sit down, but she professed to Ibe too nervous. George gave Lola «n almost Imperceptible nod, meanling "O. K., kid, I've got the file." i "There'll be visiting days twice |a. month," McCloud suggested. i4'Any time you want to come up to f/ee Georgie, I'll be glad to takti I you up." I "That's great," Perry exclaimed. "You know--now that it's all over and I'm facing it, it don't seem a& tough. If you're In the right spirit, five years can pass "like five minutes." Lola stopped and looked at her Wrist watch. The conductor stutft his head In the door, "Next stop ie Harmon." "Well, I think I'll be running along to my own back yard," Lola -declared as she started off. Georgia turned over a couple of pages of bis magazine,, pretending to read. McCloud again resumed -his half reclining position, but this time, he <Ild not close his eyes. Instead, he 4ug down into his pocket and drew out the diamond ring and looked at It. * His reverie was interrupted by a drunken man. who was annoying Lola. The detective was alert. He started up, discovered that he was handcuffed to Perry. "Excuse me a minute." McCloud got out the key from his pocket and unlocked the handcuffs. "I'll be right back." "Okay, Johnnie--I'll be right here." "Sure you will." McCloud took the section of the handcuff1 that he had opened and fastened it to a part of the brass tubing sticking out from the end of the seat. In this way, Georgie was just as much of a prisoner as he would have been fastened to McCloud. The detective rushed into Lola's seat, grabbed the drunken man by the collar and shoved him out the door. Then he sat down to chat with Lola. "What's the reason you're putting George in prison?" She inquired as the train stopped at Harmon. "I don't get you." "Is it because you're a cop and he's a thief--or Is It just because you're a man and "I'm a woman?" "That's a pretty hard question. Lola. I don't know whether I can answer it or not--but it's something like this. If you didn't exist, I'd still stick Georgie behind the bars because that's where he belongs; and if Georgie didn't exist I'd still chase after you. because that's where I belong--and If you add that up. you get a rough idea of where I stand." Lola was giving quick, furtive glances out the window. "I know just what you must think of m« after what I said and did" "I haven't changed my opinion of you. I never will." Lola covered his hand with hers. She was deliberately stalling. "No matter what I do?" "No matter what you do." She looked out of the window and •aw something that caused her face to light with Joy McCloud did not catch the change of expression as her head was turned away at the moment. She had seen Georgie leaving the train and was exultant in her triumph. -Even if I wait for GeorgieV •he inquired. -Sure." McCloud grinned. "You wait for Georgie and I'll wail for you.- McCloud asked the landlady to get in touch with him if she should hear from the girl. In their hideaway. Georgie and Lola were planning to leave the country. A phone call had Informed them that a freighter was leaving Pier 15-that night. "The freighter's bound for Bermuda." Georgie was elated. "I'll b« al)oar,d her when she sails." Lola's face fell. Georgie reached forward and took her in his arms. "I've got a good job out there--an old friend of the family fixed It for me. We're leaving right away--we won't need any passports or anything--and it'll be fun going on the freighter. "I'd go in a rowboat to get away from here." Lola declared. "It'll be another world, Lola^--we can start all over again." She looked at him intently. "Clean?" "Clean." Georgie took her by the hand and led her over to a divan. He sat down with Lola on his knee and pulled her head down on his chest. "Ever been irt Bermuda, honey? It'll be the thrill of your life. Seventy-two hours on a boat, and when you- get up the third morning you see a speck on the ocean--that's Bermuda--It'll be like a living garden." 'With nothing to worry about. No trembling every time there's a knock on the door: no dying when the phone rings: no living like a hunted animal: no--" She paused as though unwilling to continue, but he finished for her. a vicious spite* ful look coming into his face. "No McCloud!" As the days passed McCloud was given other orders. He was Instructed "to get busy rounding up a gang of wire tappers that had blown in from Chicago, but his heart was bent upon finding Lola and he .neglected it. As a result, McCloud received a call from Chris* tie. "I've known you ever since you got on the force,. Johnnie. I picked you up fifteen years ago when you were pounding a beat in Canarsie with the goats. I brought you downtown and put*1 you in plain clothes, an' you made a reputation for yourself. You sloughed your way up with those fists of yours till you got to be the best man I had." Christie spoke with vicioua emphasis. "And then, all of a sudden you blow up on me. Right now you aren't worth as much- as the greenest rookie. You've caved in. I can stand anything but soldiering on the job." McCloud answered quietly. 'That Isn't true. Lieutenant, I've been on police duty all the time." Christie became savage 'Tve asked -you twice to forget about Kerry It's getting to be a Joke around here--and you're getting to be a Joke, too Even the papers have taken it up, There's a fellow In one' of the papers runs a box every day McCloud Still Hunting for His Man!' ' He's making a sucker out of you and out of the department. He's keeping tabs on you like a box score--day by day results--how you DIDN'T get your man. McCloud. I'm asking you to forget that case " '^Lieutenant. I can't forget about it. I never let a guy get away from me before, and I'm not going to begin now." With rising anger. Christie tjbtta* dered, "I order you to drop It.* TO WI3 OONTIVUED Central Garage Fred J, Smith, Prop. Johnsburg Chevrolet Sales.

But modern wash-days are different. Home laundries are now equipped with electric washing machines that hum as they work. A switch is snapped--and clothes are quickly swished deaa in hot sudsy water that hands hardly have to touch. Another switch starts a motor-driven wringer to turning} Washing isn't a day-long ordeal any more. It's easy to have everything out blowing on the line in two short hours.

Actually, hundreds of men are helping with the washing. A complicated system of service is operating. Conveyors are feeding tons of crushed coal into boilers. Powerful turbines are roaring. Miles of copper wire, deep underground and high overhead, are alive with electricity. Turn a switch any time, day or night, and this electricity goes instantly to work for you. In die average home in northern Illinois it costs just a .fraction jpver a cent to run a washing machine for an hour. And electricity speeds through other once-tedious chores just as economically--swfceps carpets for less than a penny an hour-- 'irons clothes for less than a nickel an hour. It toasts bread, bakes waffles, heats chilly corners, brings bright cheerful light to every room for a trifiiiig sum. In spite of the great variety of uses to which it is put in every home, the cost of this electric service is only a small portion of your family budget.
