Where are you "At the Cosmopolis," Bisset nodded. "I shall hope to ring you up not later than one o‘clock." "Splendid!" said Jim and left, He walked down to the junction of Gray‘s Inn and Theodald‘s Roads and waited for an Embankment tram. His idea was to go as far as Charing Cross and walk the rest of the way. He had time to k1il and it was a lovely morning. A tram stopped, he pushed his way through the crowd that toot a vacant seat at the rear. The tram was almost full and Jim idly ran his eyes over the passengers. Then he started sharply and hastily unfolded his newspaper. From behind the shelter of this he lookâ€" again and a thrill ran through him. Those broad shoulders which he had glimpsed in the front of the vehicle beâ€" longed to no one else but Murray Farne. Jim could hardly beiieve his luck. To run across the one man for whom he was searching among all the millions of London seemed beyond belief, It seemâ€" ed too extraordinary to be pure coinciâ€" dence, and yet stranger coincidences had occurred. He looked again to make sure that Farne had not seen him, but Farne was busy reading what lcooked like a list of sailings. Jim could see his profile and smiled to himself as he noticed that Farne‘s nose was a full size larger than natural and badly discoloured. All the way up Theoâ€" bald‘s Road, all through the Kingsway tunnel Jim watched the other like a cat. but Farne did not move or take his eyves off what he was reading. The tram emerged, went along the Embankment and stopped in the shaâ€" dow of Charirg Cross Bridge. Farne rose and Jim saw that he would pass him as he came out. He hid his head behind his paper and hoped fervently that Farne would not notice him. Apâ€" parently he did not. He got out and Jim followed. Farne started across toâ€" wards the Underground Station. This was the danger point for Jim dared not wait or the heavy traffic would cut him off. Fortune was kind. Farne did not look back and Jim followed him through the passage on the east side of the staâ€" tion into Villiers Street. He saw Parne hail a taxi and get in. A second taxi was handy, and under Jim‘s instructions it shot away in pursuit. "I don‘t want him to spot me," Jim said through the speaking tube, and the driver nodded. They went up Northumberland Aveâ€" nue into Cockspur Street where FParne‘s taxi stopped at the door of a shipping office. Jim felt elated. This was easy. Now all he had to do was follow Farnce to his destination and the odds were that this was where Joan and her stepâ€" father were staying. The deiay was short, Farne got in again and was driven up St. Martin‘s Lane. Jim‘s driver followed skilfully. They crossed Oxford Street and still kept north. They cut through Regent‘s Park and went on to St. John‘s Wood. Farne‘s taxi stopped at last opposite the gate of a detached house in Suffolk Aventie and Jim‘s man cleverly turned into a side street before stopping. "You saw where he went, sir," he said to Jim. ‘"Third house above this. The number should be 27." "I saw,." Jim answered, and handed the man a pound note. "No, I don‘t want any change. You‘ve earned it." "Thanks you,; â€" sir.‘"‘ man. was really grateful. "Like me to wait and take you back. T‘ll do it for nothing." "That‘s decent of you," said_ Jim smiling, "but I don‘t know how long I shall be. I have to wait till that man comes out again." "Then wait in the cab,â€"sir, and I‘ll watch for him. Maybe you wouldn‘t want him to recognize you." Jim smilâ€" "Good ide him?" eVE Durham Chronicle:â€"We‘ve talked so much "peace" in this country the past few years that Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin and Japan think we are weaklings and afraid of them. Soft words do not carâ€" ry much weight with dictators, and were Britain, France, the United States and other decent countries to stand together as firmly as Germany, Italy and Japan, war threats would soon be a thing of the past. "Yes, sir. What name shall I say?" "Sir James Chernocke." "Please come in," said the woman. "This way, sir." As Jim followed her down the hall passage he was wonderâ€" ing what would happen if he encountâ€" ered Bignal. He might have to handle him but he would do so without comâ€" punction if the need came. Joan was ncot going back to America in Farne‘s ccmpany if he could help it. The woâ€" man was opening a door. "Will you come in here, sir. I‘m sorry it‘s the back room but the sitting room is being cleaned. T‘lj tell Miss Chandler you are here." Jim found himsel{f in a pokey room which looked like an office. There was little furniture except a rollâ€"top desk and a couple of chairs, and the carpet was much worn. The woman went out, closirg the door behind her. Jim sat down and waited. He hoped Joan wouldn‘t be long. So far things had gone wonderfully well, but there was alwavys the danger that Farhe might NO "Couldn‘t mistake him, sir. Specially is nose," he added with a grin. Jim‘s wait was not a long one. It vas barely a quarter of an hour before is driver came hurrying back. "He‘s out. He‘s gone up the street, valking. Want to follow him?" "No. I want him out of the way. It‘s ;omeone else I want to see." He disâ€" nissed the cab and walked straight to The house stood back from the road nd was separated from it by a fence nd thick laure hedges. A paved walk an to the front door.

Jim Hitâ€"andâ€"Run Driver is Sought by Police Police are on the lookâ€"out for a hitâ€" andâ€"run driver who crashed headâ€"on into a car driven by Norman Purvis, of Golden City, on the Hollinger road last Friday night about 745. Purvis, driving a car owned by Oscar Henderâ€" son, was going east toward Schumachâ€" er when a car going west toward Timâ€" mins ran into his vehicle headâ€"on. The two cars bounced apart in the impact and the other driver pulled clear and vanished in the darkness. Purvis was unable to get his number or a definite description of the car. The road at the time was very slippery. Damage to the car Purvis was driving armmounted to approximately $50. Unidentified Car Departs from Scene After Accident on Hollinger Road. Charges Labour for Roads is Imported Mayor Robert Rowe of North Bay last weekâ€"end sent a strong protest to Hon. T. B. McQuesten, Minister of Highways for Ontario, in the matter of labour on the highway work north of Nori‘h Bay. Mayor Rowe claims that ten men formerly on relief at North Bay who had been working on the road work north of North Bay had been dismissed by the contractors and their places given to outsiders. Mayor Rowe also complained that other contractors doing government work were reported to be taking similar attitude. Another point made by Mayor Rowe was to the effect that he was informed that the Little Marilyn McNulty, twoâ€"yearâ€"olid daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Christopher McNulty, of 74 Commercial avenue, died at St. Mary‘s hospital on Thursâ€" day, December 2nd. The baby was one year and nine months of ags. Funeral services were held on Friday, Decemâ€" ber 3rd from the Church of the Naâ€" tivity, with Rev. Fr. McManus conductâ€" ing the services, Premier Corstruction Co. had asked the North Bay government employment ofâ€" fitce for 100 Swedes, with the suggesâ€" tion that no others need apply. In his communication to Hon. Mr. Mcâ€" @Questen, Mayor Rowe said ithat when the contracts were announced for the highway work, J. E. Cholette, M.L.A., for Nipissing, stated that as far as possible local relief labour would be employed. ~Mayor Rowe asked for the attitude of the Highways Dept. in reâ€" gard to contractors igncoring local reâ€" lief labour.
