The sight of it sent a paralyzing chill down her spine. For the last six months that face had been staring at her from the front pages of the Chicago newspapers. Foxy Fenton I Wanted for a string of bank robberies. Wanted for murder. And for the last six months she'd been hearing that name over and ov^r. Tim couldn't stop talking about him. That's what it meant being married to a detective. Foxy Fenton t If only a polceman would appear I But that was hoping too much on a quiet street like this. And Tim wouldn't be coming home this way for another half-hour. Instinctively she lengthened her 6tride. Perhaps it was being Tina's wife that made this feeling sweep/ through her, this urgent necessity todo something about it. She couldn'tjust let a criminal walk past her and disappear.' But, being a scant five feet of slim, Inadequate strength, she shuddered. What she had suddeply decided to do would take all the courage she could summon; ••v. " V •. She .had nearly caught op with the man. Stumbling off the curt> she fell against hii£ It"could easily have been accidental; the man steadied her an instant, a speculative gleam In his eyes. "Thanks!" She withdrew her arm slowly, managed an arch smile. , "VYeselm to begoin'the same way," the man said finally, his voice casual. "Yeah. ... I live a block down 'the street ..." ' i A classy daine, he noted. Didn't look the type--yet you never could tell. Hs grinned flown at her. "And you're lonesome," he said. "Sure, so'm I, sister." They climbed, the two flights of stairs. ""Well, here we are." She made her voice gay. "How about a highball?" .;J.'.lsEow you're talking, baby. Make "mine strong. Need any help?" "No, thanks. I'll be right-back." It was relief to escape from him.-for a few minutes; a chance to get.a firmer grip on herself. It wouldn't be for long. Just until Tim came. Tim would take care of him then. She squared-her shoulders. The man was sitting on the davenport when she returned. He took the glass she offered and patted the seat beside him. "Here's to ypu." He took a" long gulp. • She sipped the plain ginger ale she had poured for herself. If she could just make him talk so he wouldn't touch her. She was afraid she might scream If he did that. ^ "How about some music," she suggested brightly going over to the radio. "Get something peppy," he put in. She took as long as she could. "How's this?" Rhythmic- emerged from the load speaker. • " "Okay." . , She saw that his glass was etiflpty. 'Til get you another drink," she said. Tim was late tonight. Tonight when she needed him so desperately! She brought the drink into the living room. With one hand the man took It and with the other he drew her down beside him. She held her trembling lips together. . Soon he would be trying to kiss her. Soon-- The key in the lock. At last ! Anff big Tim standing there, ^ agape. ' v;v; • "Oh Tim!" she cried. . The man Jumped to his feet, his eyes narrow glits. Tim stared at him. "As I breathe to live," he marveled, "I'd say you were Foxy Fenton, himself, If he hadn't been caught tonight." "Caught?" Sara's voice was barely a whisper. "Picked up In Nebraska. Late palters are full of It." '.'Oh, I thought--" she began weakly. "You thought 1 was Fenton?" the man roared. "And you were setting u trap. Ain't that a laugh?" He turned to Tim. "If you're the lady's husband, I'm sorry, paL I didn't know she was married." As the door closed upon him, Sara burst Into hysterical tears. "Tim," she gulped, "I saw him on the street. I wanted--" "Sure, I know, Honey," he said gently. "You're a brave little thing." A glint of humor came into his blue eyes. "Rut you leave the detecting to me, Honey. It's too dangerous for a pint sized Infant like you." Next mofning as Sara lit the flame under the coffee pot, she heard thv familiar thud as the morning -paper hit the back door. She ran out to get it Spreading'It open, she gasped at the headlines: FOXY FENTON SUSPECT FREED Her eyes scanned the column. The man in Nebraska wasn't FentOn after all. Just a suspicious character who looked like him. The police were work !ng on the latest tip-oft that Fenton was hiding in Chicago. • "Tim," she called. "What Is it, Honey?" ' "Look!" :"'.

PREVENT MANY ACCIDENTS The appalling necessity fojr welllighted highways and thorough-fares Was „ brought out recently in a statistical study of automobile accidents covering the year 1934 and made public by the Travelers Insurance Company. Analysis of the figures shows that 289 percent more fatalities occurred from 5 p. m. to 9 p. m, than occurred during' the period from 6 a. m. to 10 a. m. During 1934 there was not a single one of the normal twelve hours of darkness in which the rate of death per accident was less than during daytime hours. For the average of all the daytime driving as compared with the'average night time driving, the rate ""of death per accident was more than'SO percent greater for the night time hours. On the basis of night volume of traffic, which throughout the country is only a fifth of all traffic, the rate of death during darlcness Was several hundred percent greater than in daylight, acr cording, to statistics. •?, After a careful study of the high ratio of traffic deaths during night time, the French government has for. mulated plans for the electric lighting of approximately 200 miles on those sections of the French highway system which have; the heaviest night traffic. The installation of these lights, French uthorities believe, will minimize the necessity for glaring headlights. This safety program also contemplates the lighting of rural highways with high-powered lights for outlying sections between French communities, and is expected to aid materially in the relief of unemployment. - Think It Over The path of duty lies in what is near at hand, and men seek for it:l&*what Is remote.--Japanese Proverb; Slush Fund A slush fund is money used to Influence votes or legislation.
