CHAPTER SV
When Dan Brewster had gone,
Honey made sure that every win-
dow and door of the apartment was
closed and locked and the shades
drawn tightly. Then, to make doubly
sure she was alone, she looked under
the bed and in all the closets. Sat-
isfied at last that no one was lurk-
ing in the rooms, to spy on her, she
turned back the mattress on her bed
quickly and found her suede bag
just where she had put it earlier in
the evening. She picked it up care-
fully and turned it over, examining
it thoroughly from the outside. But
only for a moment did she contem-
plate it thus; the inside was more
alluring. Soon her eager fingers
clutched the velvet box in a firm
grasp and she hugged it to her heart
for just a second.
Installed comfortably in the mid-
dle of the bed, she opened the case
and stared at the jewel with fas-
cinated eyes.
"It's mine! Really millet" she
breathed, exquisite delight in her
low voice. "Oh, you're beautful. No
wonder Joeis burned up over your
disappearance"

ent ringing; the purse she threw
in a Ear corner of the closet. Then'
she hurried to the telephone, won-
dering who could be calling at that
time of the night.
"Hello!" she called, forcing sleepy
tones into her wide-awake voice.
"Miss Monroe speaking."
"Honey!" It was Joe and his voice
rang sharp and startling. "I want
to come up --now! ! have to see
you."
"You can't," she cried, alarmed
by a sixth sense. "It's nearly 2 in
the morning. You must be out of
your mind, Joe, to think of such a
thing. 'Whatever it is, it can wait
until morning. Tlfere are such
things as coni'entions, you know."
"I'm coining up, anyway." The
tone he used made her blood run
slow. He sounded cold, ruthless
and determined.
"You can't," she insisted franti-
&tally. But he had already clicked
.the receiver in her ear.
She moved in a frenzied haste.
There was no thne to dress, or to do
much thinking. She threw a fur
coat over her pajamas and grabbed
up the velvet box and her purse.
The back door led into the hall and
that avenue of flight was out. Only
the fire escape remained, sinister,
scary thing that it was. As she was
climbing out the kitchen window,
the doorbell rang and kept ringing.

to the driver and sat huddled back
in the corner of the dark cab until
the car pulled up and stopped be-
fore the white stucco apartment
house.
On entering she spotted the call-
ing cards above the 'belis. She found
the one she was looking for, on the
second floor, She pushed the ring-
er, hard and long; then, she ran up
the carpeted stairs and paused at
the top step to see which door was
going to open to her sut:anions.
She heard footsteps in the apart-
ment to her left and was before the
door, ready to dart in when Dan
pulled it baelt'.
"Honey! What is it' Why are
you here It this time of the night?"
"I am afraid," she told him and
shivered visibly.
"Why •are you afraid, Honey?
What has happened since I left you?
It hasn't been very long."
"I'm afraid Joe Dianburne will kill
rue."
"Dill you?" repeated Dan and she
saw his eyes harden to flaming steel
points. "Why?" He shot the ques-
tion at 'her but she did not flinch.
"Have you seen him? Told him
about us already?"
She shook her head quickly.
"This is why."
'She opened her bag and drew out
the velvet box. She sprung the catch
and the light fell on the diamond in
all its beauty.

"The Sylvester diamond," she ex-
plained simply.
"The Syl-" He caught his
breath without finishing the word.
He started to lift a hand, then let
it fall back heavily at his side as
though a weight pulled it down..
The blood slowly drained from his
face. He stared at Honey and his
eyes were sick.
She held the box out to hint and
when he made no move to take it,
she fell back in the chair and drop-
ped it in her lap.
She said slowly: "1 know what
you are thinking. That I am a
thief." There was deep hurt in her
voice, tears in her beautiful eyes.
"I am not, Dan. I ani not a thief."
Still he said nothing as he stood
there. He 'took a hard breath as

UNDAY SCIIOOL
LESSON
By Rev, Barclay Warren
Poetry in the Bible
Psalm 24; fabakkuk 3,:17-19
Golden Text: -He hath put a new
song in niy mouth, even praise
unto our God. Psalm 40:3.
°Wordsworth said, "All good poe-
try is the spontaneous overflow of
powerful feelings." In the Old
Testament Paslms, Proverbs, Job,
Song of Solomon and lamentations
as well as portions of other books
are poetry. Poetry is meant to
foster a feeling, a perception, a
hope, a faith. Poetry is music in
words: and music is poetry in
sound. A comparison of the beat-
ing of the tom-tom of the African
and the songs and music of the
Christians forcibly illustrates that
the Christian religion has music.
David in his song calls for clean
hands. The external life mast be
right. But he also emphasizes "a
pure heart." Religion that does not
correct Irian's, inner nature is a _
cheat. Jesus Christ 'exposed the
sham of mere formal religion and
declared, "Ye must he born again"
and "Blessed are the pure in heart
for they shall see God."
The occasion for the writing of
this Psalm was probably when the
ark of covenant was being borne
triumphantly into the city of Jer-
usalem. The gates are poetically
fancied as being too low for the
King of glory to enter.
The selection from Habakkuk
illustrates the fact that the Christ-
ian still has his song in the day
of adversity. His happiness does
not depend on material prosperity.
He rejoices in spite of trouble. He
is a witness to the fact that God
giveth songs in the night.
