Claudia wires to Dick on Friday to tell him that the job Is his but when the telegram comes Bornell manages to intercept it. Hurt by Claudia's failure to keep her promise, Dick accepts Borneo's offer. He goes to the lum!""" camp at Burns Lake, and a shori mme later, he discovers that the Bornell company is stealing lumber. He asks the boss, Braddock for an explanation, but he puts him off and the next day starts for Seattle. That night, Dick writes a letter to Claudia. CHAPTER V When Claudia Townsend returned to Seattle from Victoria, she was buoyantly happy. She had managed to arrange the job for Dick, and she telephoned her father's office immediately to ask for Mr. Whalen. The answer -- "No Mr. Whalen in this office" -- left Claudia unbelieving. She asked to speak to her father. "Well, Claudia," he said, "your young man never turned up! Had to give the job to the next man, I guess he didn't want the job." Confused and hurt, Claudia rang up the Hotel Metropole and asked for Mr. Whalen. "Mr. Whalen checked out on Saturday morning," was the answer. "But--" she said excitedly, "where did he go?" Mr. Whalen left no address, Miss," clerk told her. "He told us he'd send an address later." Claudia was sick with disappointment. Dick had gone -- after all the plans they had made, after all she had promised to do in his behalf -- and 3 had left not a word for her! "Could you tell me if a telegram as delivered to Mr. Walen on Jast __ "Yes, ma'am--" came the voice a few minutes later -- "a telegram was delivered to Mr. Whalen on Friday evening." The shook loft Claudia trembling. Obviously, she told herself, Dick Whalen had amused himself with her, and gone out of her life without a word when it suited htm. What a fool she had been! Better even to have listened to Wallace Bornell's advice not to run around with a man too much, who was an utter stranger. But though Claudia tried to harden her heart and not care, she had been more attracted to Dick Whalen than by any other man she had ever met. She had fallen in love with him and she realized now that no other man could possibly fill the gap left by him in her heart. Claudia was not the sort of girl to show how much she had been hurt by a man who had snubbed her. Now she threw herself into all the excitement that offered, accepting all invitations and lived in a continual whirl. "Claudia, you are doing too much," her mother said one day. "Why don't you go up to Banff for the winter sports with the Bodgsons?" But Claudia did not want to leave Seattle v/ith so much going on. Even from herself she tried to conceal her real reason for staying -- hope that word might come from Whalen. At the hotel they had finally received and given her Dick's address at Burns Lake, British Columbia. She had never heard of Burns Lake. It made her even more bitter to know that he had settled somewhere and still did not write her a line. She Wages Increased Swift Canadian Co., Limited, announce an increase in wages at their Dairy and Poultry Plants, located at Stratford and Belleville. In accordance with the policy of the company to keep abreast of the times, they have established a minimum rate of 35c per hour for male employees, and 27 %c per hour for female employees, and have also established an equitable differential for employees occupying skilled and sem'-skilled posi- The increases were worked out between the management and the employees through the plant assemblies, composed of representatives elected by the employees and representatives appointed by the management. It is their hope not only to keep abreast of the times, but to be known as one of the good employers with whom men and women can join their efforts to their lasting satisfaction, so that they would want to find their life-work within the company Average Weekly Pay In Britain Is $10.75 LONDON.--The average weekly wage of nearly 2,000,000 British factory workers is 10.75, a ce recently compiled by the Ministry of Labor shows. Among the million workers in the textile industries many earn as much as $18 a week, making hosiery, while others make as little as $11 a week spinning flax and hemp. Men average $13.75 a week in the textile groups, but the wage average of all workers is lowered to $9 by the wages paid to women and girls, some of whom receive only $3.25 a Tailpi Scotland Yard, cooperating with police of Europe and the United States, have prepared a complete list of all the unwelcome visitors -- international tricksters, confidence men, and pickpockets, who were expecting rich hauls.

"Claudia," he said to her once, "don't you know that I'll move heaven and earth to get you? You may as well say yes now!" Claudia toyed with the idea. Here was a man who loved her madly, was immensely rich, had position, and was well known to her family and friends. It would be an excellent match. She told herself she wouldn't marry Dick now if he came to her on bended knees! Impulsively one day she decided to accept Wallace. She went to the telephone to call him, but then changed her mind and went out for a lonely drive in her car to think it over. She had carefully refrained from asking Bornell if he knew where Dick Whalen had gone. She knew that Wallace had known how much they had been together, and she did not want to risk his sarcastic smile. Coming baek through town she had to pass the building which housed the Bornell Lumber Company's office. She looked up at it, smiled and parked her car. She would run up and see Wallace in person. She had made up her mind now. It was late in the afternoon and Claudia met the stenographer leaving by the outer office door. 3 PHILIP MORRIS FIRST \ CHOICE FOR THOSE WHO ROLL THEIR "Oh, do you want to see Mr. Bornell?" the girl asked. "Yes, is he in?" "Yes, but Le's in conference in the inner office--" "That's all Tight," said Claudia. "I'll wait here." The girl closed the door and left her alone in the luxurious outer office. She sat down to Claudia could hear voices from the inner office, Bornell's and another man's. Then chairs moved back -- they were coming out. The handle turned, the dloor opened a crack -- then discreetly the man pushed it to again. A crack still remained, open enough to allow Claudia to hear what was being said. She listened idly, at first, an unwilling eavesdropper, as she realized that the talk was serious and confidential. Then suddenly she caught a name -- the name that was uppermost in her heart -- and she sat rigid, listening with every nerve. "...won't lie heavy on my conscience!" the man was saying. "He's got what's coming to him all right for nosing into things that ain't his business. Whalen's just the sort to turn spy and inform the government. Then where'd we be?" Claudia bent forward, straining straininp to hear the next words. "Wed be cleaned out of business, Braddock, lose all our holdings in that country! We'd be ruined!" This voice was Bornell's, and it sank hoarsely on the last words. "You do as I say. Get rid of him--and quick!" His voice dropped too low to be heard. "Easy enough," said the other man's voice a moment later. 'There's aplenty up there with a grudge against Whalen. One fellow specially, and it happens I've got something on him! You'll stand by me, Mr. Wallace, should anything come of this?" "I've said I would--" came Borneo's quick, irritated voice, "only hurry up about it! Communicate with me by wire, using the word accident." "I'll see to it." They were coming out. Claudia, her heart pounding with anger and excitement, hurriedly opened her vanity case. They musn't know--niusn't suspect that she had heard! If it real ly was Dick Whalen they had been talking about--then he was in dang (To Com rued) Issue No. 17 -- '37 Woman's World By Mair M.
