Glynn after a conference with the hotel manager, got into the car taking the two policemen with im and arranging with Jimmy Doyle to go ahead in a cab with the pilot and wait in hiding outside the shop of Glynn Elliman, a pilot of Imperial Airways is travelling as a special "Flyâ€" ing Courier" by th> Air Mail to IMI% «arrying two coples of a talking film 0: ‘the Prince of Napalata, which it is most urgent shall reach there safely. _ _ At Basra he went to the hotel closeâ€" ly surrounded by a watchful bodyâ€" guard of the two pilots and Jimmy Doyle, Norah this time being sent off with the other passengers and a proâ€" mise that Glynn would meet her at the hotel later for dinner. To _ the ‘Airways manager of the big depot there he explained some of the danâ€" wers he feared and his plans to beat any further attempts. Word in adâ€" vance had again reached the depot to give Glynn all assistance and considâ€" eration and the manager did everyâ€" thing in his power to give what help he could.

A _ cab drove up _ seconds afâ€" ter you had left the car to come down the lane there, and three men hopped out in time to see you go into that shop. We were planted in another litâ€" tle shop near the corner and where we had a good lookâ€"out on your car and on the shop entrance. One of the men stopped and spoke to the policeâ€" man at the door, and while he did, the other two went :t and disappeared in the shadows of doors just beyond. The first man went on, but a bit later anâ€" other brace of tough looking customâ€" ers slid along and vanished into the shadows. "We thought you were for it when you came out, but we were all set to break in, and the three of you coming out with guns at the ready evidently scared them, and they didn‘t show a nose until your car startedâ€"when one ran along to see it cleared off I suppose." "That‘s all right then," said Glynn "I dunno if they‘ll guess what I was He found Norah waiting for him, worried and anxious over the time he had been away and wondered what had delayed him. But now Glynn was really cheerful and confident, satisâ€" fied that with the key tucked away in an inner pocket, no such surprise atâ€" tack as he had been experiencing could possibly succeed. Even if â€" he were knocked down and stunned or were doped as he had been in the hoâ€" tel at Athens, it would take a smith with a kit of tools many minutes of hard and noisy work to cut the chain or open the metal case, and he could take good care that no such long time would be left to any robbers to work at it. Glynn paid the man well for his work took the key to the padlock, callâ€" ed in one of the policemen who had been left on guard outside gave him the key and told him to pocket it; and then with the same precautions aâ€" gainst any sudden attack he moved out and keeping to the middle of the narrow street, regained the waiting car and drove back to the hotel. He had dinner, and as they were finishing it Jimmy Doyle and the pilâ€" ot came in, Jimmy in great humour, the pilot looking pleased but a little serious. When they left the table and went out to the lounge to have coffee the pilot drew Glynn aside leaving Doyle chatting with Norah. He explained his needs to the smith, produced his cigarette tin and sat down while the man took measureâ€" ments, produced a stout sheet of brass and set to work to make a case that would just holid the tin. One end was shaped as a lid which hinged down over two stout hasps projecting up through the side edges of the lid. When the case was ready, the cigarâ€" ette tin was fitted in, the lid closed and through the hasps a length of light but strong steel chain was passâ€" ed and the two ends brought round Glynn‘s waist and fastened together by a stout padlock. With the case in his hip pocket and the chain fitting snugly around his waist and secured in front it was impossible to open the case so long as the chain ends remainâ€" ed together. ‘ which the hotel manager had given He gave the two sufficient time to go ahead and find a hiding place and then set out in the car for the address of a native metal worker. The car had to ha‘t at the end of a narrow street, and Glynn with his hand on his pistol and a policeman in front and behind him, moved down the street to the shop he wanted.

SEED CORN FOR SALE The New Yorker says a photographâ€" er who had taken the picture of a young lady on her wedding day four years ago recently phoned her home in Scarsdale Ho said he would like to have her pose for him with her children. The young matron said she couldn‘t do that because she didn‘t have any children. The photographer was adamant. "Madam," he said, with firm politeness, "our records show that you have." He could see that he was going to be faced with a difficulty at Karachi, From there he had to take train to Hydrapore, the city of Napalata outâ€" side of which was the Prince‘s palâ€" ace and the Vidier or Prime Minister to whom he was to deliver the film. Norah‘s destination lay a few hour‘s journey beyond Hydrapore. It was cerâ€" tain she would take the first train, and this he must also do since it was of the greatest urgency he shou‘d place his packet in the hands of the Prince‘s people without loss of an hour. ; But Glynn did not join the others in their look round. It was a good opâ€" portunity to have a quiet talk to Norâ€" ah, and he had no great fancy for ofâ€" fering himself to any further scrimâ€" mages in native ouarters and Arab streets or bazaars. If he travelled on the same train with her, it would be difficult, if not impossible, to avoid being seen _ by her, and in any case it would mean all sorts of lies and deceit he could not bring himself to use with her. So he decided to teil her so much of his plans and his errand. He waited until the liner landed them at Bahrein, a station of the air route not long taken over by Airways off Arabia. They lunched there, and as there had been a favouring wind, the liner had made good time and they were alowed to dally over lunch, and to get a glimpse of the pearl fishâ€" ing incustry of which the considerâ€" able town is the centre in the Persian gulf Norah was still worried and ill at ease about the mysterious attacks and the risks he was encountering, and he decided it would be best to tell her something of the duties he had undertaken, although he still felt felt bound by the promise he had givâ€" en to divulge to nobody that he carâ€" ried a film for the purpose of it at Napalata. + "I don‘t like it," said the pilot unâ€" easily, "dashed if I do."

Whether this was wise or not he could not be very certain, but he thought perhaps it might indicate he was no longer carrying the film, and this might stave off any further attempts at molestation. But if, Joe, the pilot, had guessed right and his tormentors had been informed about the nef meâ€" tal case that had been chained to his waist, this might invite them if he placed himself in any position where plenty of ime could be taken to reâ€" move the case from himâ€"dead or aâ€" live. doing in that shop, find out." "And if those fellows went to my smith and found out just what he had made," said Glynn cheerfully, "the gang will know they haven‘t a chance of any more grabâ€"andâ€"run banâ€" dit raid business, and will leave me alone." "I guess that‘ll be found out," said the pilot quietly. "We thought of that and hung on watching, Sure enough two of them went along and a few miutes later went in. They were there a good tewenty minutesâ€"long enough for anyone with cash to buy every scrap of information about what you had done. We waited until they came out and gave them time to get away; then we slid out and back here." ‘ ‘"Hmmm! That might be true," adâ€" mitted Glynn, "but we can‘t have evâ€" erything just as we want it in this life." "Well, come along to my room and see my thiefâ€"resister," said Glynn and led the way to his room. ‘"‘They certainly can‘t do much to that so long as you‘re alive and kickâ€" ing," said the pilot gravely, "but isn‘t that a darn good reason for them havâ€" ing you laid out stiff with & cracked skull or a knife in your gizzard." "Was that Indian wallah amongst the lot you saw?" asked Glynn quickâ€" ly. The pilot examined the chain and case closely and agree it would take time and hard work to break either. "Not that one could be sure of," said the pilot, "but you know how dark it was down there, and with turâ€" bans shading their faces, it was hard to tell." Jâ€"| RAYMORE RECORDED FACT. To be continued or if they‘ll try to "‘The representatives of the Deâ€" partment of Agriculture in practiâ€" cally every county in the province have been approached in reference to the purchase of seed grain. In quite a number of counties there is a scarcity of seed grain and in pracâ€" tically every county there are farmâ€" ers without seed grain and without sufficient credit to enable them to secure it. "Due to these extraordinary ‘conâ€" ditions it is proposed to ask the cdunty councils to appeal to the banks, and to secure loans under section 88 of the Banking Act for the purchase of seed grain in order to assist those farmers within their l:n;micipality who apply to them for elp. "In the event of the counties losâ€" ing any money in connection with the repayment of these loans, the Government is prepared to accept twoâ€"thirds of the responsibility, proâ€" viding the municipalities accept oneâ€"third." To assist farmers in the purchase of seed grain, the Ontario Governâ€" ment is prepared to accept twoâ€" thirds of the responsibility for loans for that purpose according to Hon. T. L. Kennedy, Minister of Agriculâ€" ture, who made the following stateâ€" ment: The budget for 1934 estimates revâ€" enue at $1,607,593 and estimated exâ€" penditures at $1,483,536, which would leave a surplus next year of $124,056, The 1934 budget was also unanimousâ€" ly approved. The city fathers have reported handsome surpluses for the past three years and have added substantial sums to the reserve fund for five years running. Commercial and truck sales conâ€" tinued their gain during February, Polk figures revealed, with an estiâ€" mated registration of 24,300 units, In the 47 states, 23,666 trucks were sold during February, as compared with 9,575 in the same month last year, an increase of 147,16 per cent.

The city council can snap their fingers at talk of hard times and depression, for they have approved the 1933 financial report with a surplus of $101,506 and set apart $99,213 of it for their reserve fund. In the 47 states from which Polk bas already received total registraâ€" tions, 91,714 passenger cars were sold during February, as compared with 63,353 units in the same month last year. This also compared with 59,077 units registered in the same 47 states during January, 1934, an inâ€" crease of 55,24 per cent. In January and February of 1934, Polk reported, passenger car registraâ€" tions totalled 155,242 units, as comâ€" pared with 149,309 units for the same two months in 1933, Truck registraâ€" tions for the two months total 46,403 units.

"The trouble with most gir‘s," she said, "is that they use too m«ch makeup and often the wrong shades, at that." A CRISP SALAD Salad should never stand for a long time after preparing it If it must be arranged in advance, put the plates right back in the refrigerator until mealtime. There is nothing so uninteresting as a warm, wilted salad. Hair is another important considerâ€" ation with her. She uses a hair brush just as the average person uses a comb. Instead of setting aside fifteen minutes for a brushing ritual, she does it whilc she is putting on makeup, when removing itâ€"any time at all. Miss Sousa believes that exercise is important to one who wishes to be healthy and beautiful. She, herâ€" self, takes long walks in the park, rides, swims and plays tennis. "When 1 came to New York six years ago," Miss Sousa said, "I lookâ€" ed exactly like hundreds of other asâ€" pirants to the stage. I couldn‘t even get a job modelling clothes, to say nothing of one in the theatre. So 1 decided to make the most of my statuesque appearance, bought a stick of orchid grease paint to make me look pale and interesting, pinned a large bun on the back of my bobbed head and tucked my short locks up under it. Almost immediately 1 beâ€" came a type and was flooded with offers from c+mmercial photographâ€" ers. Later, 1 was able to get on the stage, and now I‘ve won a beauty prize." "Type," said the tall brunstte with flashing black eyes and hair that is as smooth and shiny as polished ebony, "is the password to beauty and personality. The angelicâ€"faced girl with straight brown hair should realize that she is the Madonna type and, no matter how much she longs to be dashing, should arrange her makeup and hair to suit. The same applies to the Spanish type of beauty. And to the wan, willowy miss. Even girls with pugnoses and freckles may be attractive if they‘ll only admit to being in the ‘cute‘ category and carry out that line of thought when they deâ€" cide on a coiffure, a lipstick, a new frock. Almost any woman may be interâ€" esting, perhaps even beautiful, if she‘ll figure out her type and then play up to it, according to Leone Sousa, recently chosen the most beautiful girl in the Ziegfeld Follies of 1984.

An international film treaty enâ€" couraging producers to make «!ms especially for children, which would be exempt from tariffs, will be conâ€" sidered during the current session, it was learned. Criticism of producers voiced by delegates included charges that films frequently put criminal ideas into young heads and give "young poople d ideas about 10ve." The delegates felt that although hundreds of thousands of chilsiren atâ€" tend the motion picture theatres of the world, the producers in the main neglect this huge clientcle by allegâ€" edly failing to draw upon the litoraâ€" ture for children and young people for movie plots, The life of the ant as a symbo!l of industry was given considerable atâ€" tention in certain reports of the committee members, who are studyâ€" ing how educational pictures may be popularized among young people.
