Following a lever's quarrel, they are both sent to the firm's west coast branch— Judith to investigate a "leak" in the organization, °Tom to lake plans of a new bomber. Two foreigners and the co-pilot land the airliner in which the two are riding and kidnap Tom. He slips Judith the plans. When the kid- napers return to the plane for the plans, Judith steals their car, finds Tom bound in a. shack. She cuts Haim loose, escapes while he bat- tles his captor. Pursued, she leaves the car, thumbs a ride with n truck driver. THOSE MEN •AGAIN CHAPTER V The grinning driver opened the door and Judith climbed up into the treek without a second in- vitation. "Thaelks, ' she said to hint, re- lieved. "Where etre you headed for"" • "San Diego," he answered. "Where 'lo you want to go?" "To San Diego. May I ride all the warn, please ?" "Sure, baby, why not?" He pulled the truck back into the road. Judith settled back. This was a break, ..he thought. She'd have been an easy prey to follow, in. the' bandits' car. This way, there was less chance of there catching up with her. The thought of Tom at their mercy was not a pleasant one, but he was right in telling 9eex,,to et,.t\tie ttlens: safely to ba\a,, ltitego first.

"This is a truck•- -not a luxury buggy." lle laughed loudly at his own joke. "Where're you from?" "Middle part of the country," elle replied. "Got a job waiting for me if I get there in time," she Iied. "Iiuw ler are we from there':" She pulled her eigarettee out and offered hien one. "Thanks," he said, and struck a match for then before he an- swered. "We ought to be in the city tomorrow before noon." At noon they stopped at a road- side cafe. .Judith was ravenously hungry. She had not eaten since last night when the plane stopped. She ate greedily, her head bent aver the plate. Thus she did not see the two men enter the cafe and sit down at the other end of the lunch counter. "She can't he far away," said one of the men, and Judith stop- ped eating, her fork poised in mid-air. The roan had spoken with a too -familiar accent. She peered around at her new- found friend cautiously. Instant- ly, she recognized Heavy and the foreigner, Karl. Her appetite van- ished. She reached in her purse for a pencil and paper, wrote a note and slipped it to the truck .driver at her side. "Get rete out of here quietly. Hurry.!" He read it and looked at her sharply. • She inclined her head toward the other men, and he saw the fear 'in her. eyes.. l -le quickly ;putt Sofia' coins on the counter stood up, keeping • between her and the men until they • reached the door. From there Judith threw can -Lien aside and darted for the truck. Ile took his place under the wheel and off they rolled. Then he eyed her suspiciously. . "Ant I helping a criminal es- cape?? be demanded bluntly. "No," she answered readily, not taking offense at his question. "Those are the men I escaped from last night. They must not catch me again. They are dan- gerous. The blond one is a for- eigner. He would kill me, I think." "I don't like :foreigners," he said gruffly. Judith put her hand out to him. "Shake, Mister." ,K K He was :t swell guy, she decid- ed. Lucky for her things had turned out as well as they hail. Without his help, she would prob- ably have been caught by now. Suddenly she snapped to atten- tion. She turned to Harry. "Is there s car back of you?" He looked into the side mirror. "Yeah --a big black one. Corn- ing fast, too." "That's it," gasped Judith.

"Here • 1 come!" He jerked the :truck 'to the middle of the road. There was a se•reechnrg of tires as the speed • - ing ear swerved into the diteh and bit 1.iw emhaultinent. Without; a backward glance, Harry put tile' accelerator to the floor and sled on, "You can comm up for air n'ow,:" he told Judith, with grim satis- i'aetion, "Nobody's going to. make ane pull vet• and stop if I don't want to --.•not while I'm driving this wagon.'' As they rolled on down: the highway,. Judith realized she must change her course.

The truck would be .easy to follow, and her pure suers would show up again, she was cure of that. And this time th..ey would use their guns. She reached in her purse for a handkerchief, and her fingers touched a small package. The sleeping pills! A plan began. to materialize, About sundown, Harry pulled into a dumpy looking tourist camp and stopped. "Well, baby, here's where. we spend the night. Not much to look at, but it's clean enough. 1''11 see about getting you a cabin. I usually sleep in the truck." When }Tarry returned with a key and showed her the cabin, she assumed a :false cheerfulness. "If you'll get some groceries from the woman in there, Harry, I'll cook us a nice ineal. I'ni awfully hungry. Some coffee, and steak a1u1 bread," she suggested. "Say, that'll be swell," he said. • Ile went Track to the store, and returned soon, laden with the groceries. While :Judith 'prepared: the meal, he sat watching her with quizzical eyes. "I just can't figure you out," he said once. "Don't try to, Harry," she an- swered. "Everything will be all right now, I'm sure. 'Thanks to you," she added. * at a When he went in to wash 'up, Judith opened her purse quickly and seized the sleeping medicine. Into his coffee she put two doses. "`That ought to do the tries:," she decided. "Two spoons or one of sugar, 1Ttire yY ""'' �It'e 'ealleti ` to"Tint "Two spoons, baby," he an- swered, coming back rifo the room.

"Here—drink your coffee while it's hot and I'll finish frying the steak. I never drink coffee at night. it keeps me awake." Judith took as long as she could to finish the rest of the ureal and pat it ell the table. When she finally sat down, Harry was stupid and drowsy, yawning with every breath. He marbled something about taking a short nap and dropped his head onto the table. She waited a moment, then slip- ped quietly from her chair. She put on her hat, took two $10 hills from her puree and stuffed them into his shirt pocket where she had seen him put the truck keys. "Thanks a Iot, Harry," she whispered, staring at hint a mo- ment. "It's goodby now. To- morrow you can figure the out." She tiptoed out the door. No one was around the other cabins as she made her tray to the back.

Judith's heart stood still as she recognized Heavy's voice. (Continued Next Week). New -Born Baby Needs Dental. Care A new-born baby seems to bo comletely toothless. Actually the crowns of his first set of teeth. are practically formed,. hidden be- neath the gums. And beneath those baby teeth are the begin- ning of the permanent teeth. It is evident, therefore, that dental are is a necessity froth. the time oi' birth. Baby's food should include ele- ments essential to the building of strong teeth, such as lime and phosphorous. Milk contains these elements in large quantities and is therefore virtually indispens- able in the baby's diet. ' After infancy, children should be given a glass of milk at each meal, which, together with the anilk used •in cooking should pro- vide the child with a quart of• milk a day. Vegetables, fruits, eggs and meat should be added to the child's diet as directed by the family physician. Coarse foods that require chewing should be given as the child grows older, for chewing is a substantial aid to development of the tooth and haws.
