".I'm all right" McCale said,
"hut I'm still wet and very, very
tired."
"Then you get into dry clothes
right away. Rocky, you prix him a
highball while I make coffee.
While you're getting the liquid in-
side of you, I want to hear about
everything. If you think I'm going
to tuck you in and go home be-
fore I get tin whole story, you are
sadly mistaken, If you will go out
chasing a murderer all night with
a hole in your side, you'll have to
take the consequences. I'm going
to ask questions if I stay here the
rest of the n'ght."
The three of them sat a long
time over brandy and hot coffee
discussing the case. After a leng-
thy resume, they grew silent, Mc -
Cale finally spoke.

"Well, they were alt In the plot
to get Curt married to Veronica
and in charge of the Bigelow mil-
lions, Then when it was discovered
that he didn't intend to give them
a share after all, they all had the

getting control of it, When it was
clear that they all wanted him out
of the way for the sante reason, it

murder."
Bright lad," Rocky grinned.
It's a wonder you fumbled as
long as you did."
McCale scowled. "Olt, I know
the old one about everyone being
a potential murderer. I had to nose
a little closer to the ground than
just accusing one right after the
other. Some of thein had to have
a stronger motive than just money.

"Call it jealousy combined with
passion. Karen was the 'femme
fatale,' of course. I think she knew
from the first that Stephen did it.
She didn't give him away, though,
not until tonight. She'd even
thought of helping him to run
away again, That's why she drew
the $500. But tonight when I asked
her if she knew why Sybil hadn't
been killed instead of stunned, she
didn't answer. However, as 1 went
out the dobr, she began to play the
Lullaby from Joselyn. It was her
way of telling me about the mo-
-titer fixation Stephen had. He
could not bring himself to kill her,
even though he realized she had
gone to the attic to see if his sailor
suit was still there—and the gun."
"Oh, that's what she was' look-
ing for."
* * *
"Of course. Funny. All the way
along the line, everything pointed
to the sailor angle. It wasn't until
I found the black silk square in
the attic that I realized what I had
missed. It was a kerchief, you
know, the kind sailors wear knot-
ted about their necks. When I re-
alized what it was, the whole puz-
zle fell into focus, There was a
sailor lounging near the gate
across from the house on the af-
ternoon of the murder. Then Miss
Bigelow had told me that Stephen
had once run away and joined the
navy. IIe even mentioned the fact
himself. Then there was the pic-
ture missing from Shari Lynn's
wall. The only sailor in all those
uniforms, Stephen's photograph,
of course. The picture was taken
years and years ago—not a very
good one—but if I had given it
more than a cursory glance the
night I saw it at Shari Lynn's, L
think I would have recognized
hint."
"Lord. The whole business was
out in the open all the time," This
from Rocky.
"Uh uh, That's where he was
clever. It was almost too out in
the open. Stephen told no lies. He
admitted being jealous of Karen.
Everything he did was logical, you
know, except attacking his mo-
ther. IIe shouldn't have done that,
because he couldn't follow through
on it. IIe didn't have the heart to
kill ler. It showed that the ]tiller
had a fondness for Sybil that kept
Itim from destroying her. That de-
finitely put the finger on Stephen."
* * *
Rocky said, surpris:ngly, "He
was lucky about the false clues,
too, boss, He didn't try to leave
any himself—false ones—to point
another way, like most murderers
do. There was the red wig and
everybody being in the same lo-
cality at just the right time to
come under suspicion. Those
things just happened, All the con-
fusion it caused was lucky for hits
—for a while, anyway,"
"That's certainly right. I -Ie al-
most got away with bumping me
off, too."
"He'd never been caught if he'd
kilted you," said Ann.
"Oh, I don't know. Donlevy's
smart and he would have plugged
away until he got the right line,
no doubt."
"Maybe." She sounded skeptical:
"Good heavens, It's five o'clock.
Rocky tilted his bulk from his
chair, saying, "I'll ntosy along,
too, Come on, Ann, I'll drop you."

going to he all right. You aren't
running a fever are you?"
She put her hands on his fore-
head and, bending over suddenly,
gave him a long kiss.
"I'm fine," answered McCale
happily, "but if you want my tem-
perature to go tip, you're certain -
1y doing the right thing."

Yom' Handwriting
By
and You Alex S. Arnott
Crude, peaty, excessive curls in
handwriting is an expression of
vulgarity. From the writing, you
can picture such writers to be
flashy and showy to the extreme.
Their clothes may be of loud
splashy material with an assort-
ment of contrasting colours, cheap
jewelry, ant; a display of unnec-
essary trinkets. These indicate
lack of good taste and refinement.
An example of thiswriting is il-
lustrated below, Such writers
make ungraceful, heavy whirls and
loops in all their letters. In many
cases, hooks begin and end the
words, showing the person to be
abnormally materialistic with a
love of self-indulgence in eating
and drinking. They go beyond the
average person in their living
habits and become excessive in
everything they do. Harmony and
spirituality is not part of their
character as they tlo not Believe in
retitlement, good temper, or good
judgment.
Writing which appears to stand
straight up, as in the first exam-
ple, shows the nature to be more
reserved than the nature in the
second exampie, which indicates
the person tobe openly vulgar in
speech as tell as manner.

Ti, the wise men :among the
ancient Hebrews the heart ,was
not only the center of man's physi-
cal being, but it symbolized also
the center and source of his moral'
and spiritual life. ile thought not
only with his amind, but with his
heart, "As a man thinlceth in his
heart, so is he"; "search the heart,
for out of it are the issues of life."
Purity of heart, therefore, be-
came the supreme and necessary
condition of a good and whole-
some life, as much as pure blood
is the condition of a healthy body.
* * *
What does it clean to be pure
in heart? The , common tenden-
cy is to think of"purity" chief-
ly, if not altogether, in terms of
sex; but purity of heart means a
great deal more than avoidance of
what Saint Peter (I Peter 2:11)
has called the "fleshy lusts that
war against the soul."
Purity, too, must be considered
onits positive side. It is not
enough to resist the temptations
of evil; it :s necessary to be moved
by the impulses of good, and the
power of love. Purity means
strength, as well as freedom from
taint.
