O'BRIEN LAST WEEK: Tec* is buried at Ma the next day. Jean tries to comfort Rollins for the loss of his eld friend. Later, Lieutenant Miley questions Rollins further ai to whether he was alone when he aw Teee juat before the murder. That night, Rolllna looks out of hie porthole, seea light. As he prepares to investigate he hear* rifle shot, followed Immediately by the lifeboat alarm. STRUGGLE IN THE PASSAGE CHAPTER VII Automatically, Lieutenant Rol- lins shifted mental gear* as the emergency gong sounded. Army discipline went to work. He had an official post to assume at Life- boat Station 15 and everything else became secondary. Regret- fully he shoved the revolver back into his pocket, but the thought flashed through his mind that It itdn't matter much because who- ever bad flashed the light would be swallowed up In the men flood- ing the decks. Hurriedly he slipped Into his trousers, donned a balaclava, slung tn his ihouler bag and gas mask, and darted into the corridor. Kx- ept for a puffing sentry, he was lone; but within a few seconds tier offlc*rn were pouring from belr cabins, and Rollins marveled it the general coolne.. One would think that a lifeboat alarm fen the dead of night aboard a troopship riding angry waves was an eferyday occurrence in the lives of these men. At the exits, military police were already stationed, repeating fee same warning: "Show no light as you step on 4eck!" Earh man whipped the heavy curtain behind him before he pened the door. Outside it was pitchblack, and cold, spray filled the night. Murky ftfuree bumped one another as they passed. Rollins walked quickly with both hands out- stretched to prevent himself from crashing headlong into others be- fore he reached Lifeboat Sta- tion 15. Hie sergeant was only seconds behind and breathing heavily from (he run upstairs with heavy equip- ment. "What's up, 8k?" he gasped. "I didn't feel any explosion and the ship's whistle isn't blowing fee regulation blasts." Rollins had been thinking along the same line*. "Perhaps it's only drill. Sergeant. Don't have the men climb Into the boat yet. It's bit dangerous with the ship fecaving around and the planking wet. Walt until there Is further cause for alarm." "Very well, Sir!" Wirhin two minutes more, the tall complement of men for Life- boat Station 10 was on hand and landing In position, ready to hop into the boat on order. Members Of the ship's cre-w stood by the lowering apparatus. After the first wave of excite- ment, the men standing in the black-shrouded night began to grumble In approved to Idler fagh- "What's the idea getting us up in the middle of the night like this?" . . "And it took me two hours to get to sleep on this bleed- Ing tub!" . . "Some brass hat had a brain wave!" . . . "Maybe the Old Man got the wind up." . . . "Anybody got a cup of hot rum?" They stood there for a full half hour before the adjutant, heavily clothed, came around. "Dismiss your station. Lieuten- ant!" he ordered. "The captain doesn't wish to sound the regular dismiss signal on the ship's whis- tle because it might alarm the other ships." Before Rollins had a chance to ask him what it was all about, the adjutant has disappeared in the direction of the next station. He turned to the men and shrug- ged in the darkness. "You heard him. my hardies on your way and pleasant dreams!" He smiled as he heard them shuffling off mut- tering complaints about drill-crazy 0. C.'s and the army system in general. They had really enjoyed the bit of excitement but didn't want to show it. Rollins returned to his cabin. Little groups of officers were gath- ered in the corridor discussing the speed in which their men had reached the various stations. The consensus of opinion was that the O. C. Troops had decided to spring an alarm on the ship as a tcit before reaching the. submarine zone and to make it realistic had not even tipped off the officers. There was no talk about rifle shots. Rollins didn't stop to chat but went directly into the cabin. From the folds of the sweater in the cupboard drawer, he ex- tracted the bottle and poured him- self a stiff shot of brandy. It sent a glow of warmth through him. As he lighted a cigarette. Greg noticed on his wrist watch that it was a few minutes after 1 o'clock. They had been on <J-_>ck for about half an hour ... a few min- utes previously he had seen the light on the deck . . that would make it about 12:30. There was something familiar about that time. . . . tilings seemed to happen regularly at 12:30 or 'thereabouts. Tonight the unexplained life- boat alarm. Last night the murder of T>?es. The night before Rollins frowned he had seen the light on the deck and found Joan there. All of these incidents had hap- pened about the same time and on the same deck. In two of the cases a light had been shown, in the other . . . Rollins jumped to his feet and paced the cabin floor. A startling thought had hit him. Could Tees have seen somebody flashing a light on deck and been murdered when he. attempted to grapple with that person? The Jigsaw puzzle was takiug form. That would explain the ap- parently inexplicable motive for the murder. After all, even If somebody was smoking illegally that individual would hardly mur- der an officer to avert being re- ported.

She had admitted being respon- sible for th* light on the first night. Rather, at least, the had admitted smoking on deck. There could possibly have been, Rollins conceded, another person on the deck flashing the light seen by the entry and reported to him. When he rushed up he had found the girl. She was noi flashing auy light. In fact, she wasn't even carrying a lighted cigarette. Still, the fact remained that about the same time every night, something extraordinary seemed to happen around the same section "A" deck. At long last, he had come upon a plan that might give him a chance to solve the mystery and lay his hands v>on the killer. It all depended on one detail, and he intended to put himself straight on that detail without delay. Throwing on his bathrobe, Rol- lins stepped out into the corridor again and walked to ihe first cross-passage. He turned into it and made his way towards the far side of the ship where Lieutenant Miley's cabin was situated. As he turned along the corridor running parallel to his 'own, some slight movement in the curtain shelter- ing a deck exit caught his eye. Quick as a flash Rollins stooped, apparently to adjust his shoe lace, meanwhile studying the curtain tensely. It hung about two inches off the floor and even in the dark- nefia he could see two shoes stand- Ing motionless! Rollins waited uptil the ship swayed downwards. Lithely. he straightened a bit before diving headlong at the spot In the curtain where he judged the knees belong ing to those feet should be. It was a tackle that would hare warmed the cockles of any rugby coach's heart. His arms scisson-d around a pair of stroug legs, and with a heave of hia shoulder he bowled over his opponent, the cur- tain coming down with a ripping sound over the struirsHug figures Ri'iiin.- heaved again and rolled on top. With a single deft move, he grabbed a struggling arm throtgh the folds of the curtain and twisted it upwards. "Ei:sy you'll break ii!" a voice groaned. Rollins released his hold it was Harry Miley!

Summing up the results of his recent conversations at New Del- hi and the present outlook, Sir Stafford told a press conference "it la an encouraging picture not as encouraging as n might have been, but certainly more en- couraging than it would have been if nothing whatever had been done/' He disclosed that before leav- ing New Delhi he discussed with Indian leaders the possibility that they devise a new plan for par- ticipation in wartime government as an alternative to postwar do- minion proposals which they re- jected. He stressed again, however, that changes in the Indian con- stitution requiring "months or years" would be necessary to make possible the form of na- tional government the all-India Congress Party leaders sought. Koreans Waiting For Opportunity Kim San, one of the Korean rebel leaders, declares that Korea will flare up at the moment the war in the Pacific sweeps through the Sea of Japan, giving the peo- ple an opportunity to strike out effectively for independence, G. Kent write in Asia Magazine. "Korea is a great storehouse of retribution for Japan," he says in his autobiography. "Never a day has parsed since 1910 that Koreans somewhere have not struck a blow against the Jap- anese. Although thousands have been imprisoned and executed. Koreans are not discouraged. They are merely preparing for the right moment. They are by nature gentle and tilerant, yea. But there is no anger like the anger of a patient man who has suffered too long. Beware the gentle water buffalo! TABiE TALKS By SADIE B. CHAMBERS Honey as a Substitute For Sugcx' As we are all asked to be on sugar rations, there should be no lamenting for we still have mar- vellous .substitutes in corn syrup, maple syrup and honey. Before the introduction of cane sugar, honey was apparently the most common sweet available for unman consumption. Honey is '.he nectar ot flowers gathered by honeybees and ripen- ed by them within their hives. The ripening process consists of evap- orating the excess moisture from the nectar and certain changes In the chemical nature of the sugar it contains. SOME THINGS TO REMEMBER 1. Measure honey always In liquid form. 2. For every cup of honey used, reduce the liquid called for In a recipe by one-fifth. 3. One cup of honey is as great in sweetening power as one cup of sugar. 4. Use i 4 to Vs teaspoon ot soda to each cup of honey. 5. Increase the amount of salt by ft to > 4 teaspoon. 6. In iinik puddings or pie fill- ings add the honey with the thick- ening agent. If you wish to have honey in- dispensable in your cooking try these recipes.

Russia To Fight Battle For Food Men. Women and Children Must Work in the Fields Russia ha-a mobilized 160,009.000 men, womeu and children to fight the summer battle for food. Attacking the food supply Unes as realistically as they treated the factories, calling upon workers to remain at their Jobs in time- of war, the Peoples' Commissars de- creed: Collective farmers must work a minimum of l"l! to 150 working days this season. Children from 14 to Iti must work in the fields 50 days a year. City high schools must bo sus- pended so students can lend a i hand. The sweeping decree affects all mules from 14 to 55 and all wo- men from 14 to 50 not already in war work. Exceptions are such women and young girls deemed unfit for work. Persons mobilized from the cities will be feil, sheltered, and paid at prevailing collective farm rates. The decree supersedes one whicli required a minimum of 60 farm working days a year. Children will have a limited work day, from six to eight hours. But there is no limit on the num- ber of days an adult may work. During the last harvest, with the Germans advancing, the Russian farmers worked day and night. It in to be assumed that if necessary the same will i)e true this year. Violation of the decree is pun- ishable by six months of forced farm labor and lines of 25 per ceni of earnings. Penalties also will include loss of collective farm ad- vantages, which include an indi- vidual strip of land. Must Treat Colored Cottons With Care The dyes that are most scarce are those that nuke fast color a typo of dye that goes by the incredible name of "Anthraquin- oid Vat." Cotton fabrics manu- factured before the shortage was felt are lavishly Jyed in ail col- ors; many have color-fast labels. The new fabru-s will probably be less brilliant ami have a limited range. VVlu>re fast dyes are used, prints will be small or sparingly spaced to save the dyes. When there is no color-fast label, treat your colored cottons tenderly. Before washing, soak them in a solution of a'oout a cup of vinegar to a gallon of water for 20 min- utes. For dark blues ami blacks, a solution of salt and water is better. Then wash them quickly in rich suds which rinse out the dirt without hard rubbing or scrubbing am! so make c.'otlies last longer. And remember that col- ored cottons such as these should not only be washed quickly, but dried quickly. Ti'i> shorthand .system of writ- ing r:i^ 'HCII ;r.uc:j back to .the yuai li3 B.C. Girls Can Make Their Own Jewelry A group of girls in a college; near my home have decided thai they will have costume jewelry to wear no matter how expensive it may become "for the duration.' 1 They are making it themselves, the material they use being string ! They collect it and their frienda collect it for them. For bracelets they crochet it into broad, or narrow, oands. On these, to simulate jewels, they em- broider raised star* in different colors, allowing one color to pre- dominate if the piece is to har- monize with any particular outfit. For brooches they cut designs from cardboard, cover them with string, "jewel" them, and fit them with safety pins. For necklaces, two ropes of spool-knit string are formed into circles, one smaller than the other, and from each tt uspended a row of string-covered and "jeweled" discs. One girl even completed her set wi'.h a ring. She fastened togeth- er an oval of cardboard and a double twist of heavy wire (taken from a milk bottle), covered the whoie with string and "jeweled" the top. She said, laughingly, "This :s one way to get the cos- tume jewelry we want these days." M. G. Q. in Christian Science Monitor. U.S. Sailors Take Course In Britain A large group of Americana is in Britain taking a course in how to defend merchant ships against aerial and U-boat attacks. The course was organized by the British Navy and was founded on the experiences of two and one-half years of sea war. The Americans will return t the United States after complet- ing the course and their know- ledge will be the basis of defence of American merchant ships.
