Frustrated sued angry, he enters an all-night ;lunchroom and is eating, a bowl off chili when a timid little man en the stool next to him asks Ammgus to pass the catiuE. In- ;,tead, Angus jerks the little man off his stool and knocks him be- hind the counter. s a * ANGUS MEETS THE BOSS CHAPTER VII Angus isn't mad anymore. He in sorry he clouted the little guy lying There behind the counter. After all, the poor little fellow can't be blamed for Garvin Fitz- water. The proprietor is yelling in Greek that no scholar could un- derstand. The customers dive for the door and disappear into the night. For a couple of minutes, Angus stands there. alone, watch- ing the hysterical proprietor, and then his heart sinks as he sees five policemen coming through the door with nightsticks gripped for taction. When Joe arrives for duty at the jailhouse the • next morning, kte greets Angus cordially. "Ex- pected to see you,"lie says. "Saw it in the papers. Wanna read it?" Angus isn't very enthusiastic, but he takes the paper. Some wise -guy reporter has written: "In the wee hours of the morning, Angus MacPhillips, 28, New York's Caliban from Caleb, who last week nearly demoral- ized Manhattan's police force by tackling 20 officers single-hand- ed, was arrested for the second time, this time for allegedly as- saulting Willie Austerschmidt, a subway guard off duty. "The fracas took place in an all-night Greenwich Village lunch place. Witnesses said MacPhil- lips apparently was angered by Austerschmidt's request to have the catsup passed. "When Austerschmidt recover- ed consciousness, four hours after the affray, he resigned his job and left New York for a chicken farm upstate, saying he wants to return to the simple life. "Police officials say MacPhil- lips' offense will probably be re- duced to disorderly conduct be- reuse of the victim's refusal to prosecute. "MaePhillips' brush with large numbers of the law last week resulted from his chase across half the United States in pur- suit of his Ariel—in this case, Miss Adoreen Margate, featured Ringer at the Purple Pelican." Angus drops the paper. "What does this Caliban and Ariel stuff mean, Joe?" "I don't know," says the jailer. "Somethin' about love, I guess. Don'task me." "I don't think they should keep dragging Addie's name in like that." "Never mind that now. The In- spector wants to see you." N * e Inspector Callahan is slouched over his desk like a beaten man. "Welcome back, MacPhillips. Ex- plain this one if you can." "Just a mistake," says Angus casually. "I thought for a min- ute the pian I hit was someone else." "Perfectly natural mistake," says the inspector sarcastically. "Could happen to anybody. Ex- cuse us for detaining you." "Oh, that's all right, Inspec- tor," Angus says. "Mistake all around. Well, so long." "Come back here!" Callahan yells, his face red. "Where do you think you're going?" "I thought you said—" "Sit down! The guy you sock- ed cleared out of New York, which is the only smart thing to do as long as you're in town, so we can't prosecute. But we're holding you for disorderly con - duet. You can get out if you put up $25 bail." Angus reaches into his pocket and fishes out a $50 bill. "Have you got any change?" "Where did you get that?" the inspector asks suspiciously. "I got a good job." "All right, McPhillips. Joe'll show you were to pay. But get this—if there's any more trouble with you, I'm gonna call out the National Guard and put this whole island under martial law until we get you locked up for keeps." "Yes, sir," says Angus meekly. For a couple of days, Angus is tot, busy to think much about Adoreen. He likes it better ti xt way.

Angus is sueprised how willingly these dealers pay U. All they do is take one look at him and dive for the safe to get the full amount in cash. He figures these broccoli deal- era must need an awful lot of protection to be willing to hand over such big payments without batting an eyelid, .and he is glad he can be helpful in preserving law and order -- a thought at which Inspector Callahan would snort. But after about three days .of making his rounds, Angus knows he must get in touch with Ado- reen whether she likes it or not. He gets her address from the Purple Pelican and arrives at her apartment in the West Seventies. at 5.30 in the afternoon. Adoreen opens the door, and she is as pretty as a picture post- card of Niagara Falls in the moon- light, Her hair is wrapped around her head in a million little waves, and she is wearing a dark blue negligee that drags on the floor. When she sees Angus, her cheeks start to burn. , "Get out of here," she says dan- gerously soft. "Go away. How can they spare you from jail?" "Hello, Addie," says Angus un- abashed. "I just dropped in to be friends like you said." "I said that before I knew you made a habit of sleeping in jails every night." "Now, Addie, that ain't true. That was just bad luck. I'm sorry the. papers printed your name and all that Caliban and Ariel stuff. What does that mean, anyhow?" Adoreen glances furtively down the hallway. "Whatever it means, we're not it. Oh, come on in. But only for a little while. Mr. Fitzwater's coming any minute. We're going out to a cocktail party." Angus shuffles inside and sizes up the living room. "Nice place. you got here. Addie, I wish you wouldn't go to those cocktail parties." Adoreen is distant. "We won't discuss that. If you'll pardon me, I've got to dress. You'll find drinks on the table." Angus is genuinely shocked. "Drinks! Addie, you don't— "No, but Mr. Fitzwater does, and he's a gentleman. I thought maybe you were learning to be one." Adoreen comes out in a long dress so red that it looks sinful, just as the doorbell rings. "Oh, gosh," says Adoreen, "that must be Mr. Fitzwater. Now look here, Angus, you behave or—or 'Garvin Fitzwater is a lily if there ever was one. He is about middle size, with black shiny hair that is greasy and packed in little curls. lie has the tender skin of a fresh corpse, and his smile is about as friendly as a hyena's. He has no mustache, but he looks as if he ought to have. He studies Angus like he is looking at something in the Aqua- rium. "So you're Caliban," he says, "Well, well." "I ain't no such thing, Angus counters. "I'm hard-working and I earn an honest living, which is more than I can say for some people." "Angus!" yells Adoreen. "Well, I am. I got a good job, and maybe some day you'll be glad to have me. Fitzwater still wears the plaster smile. "I'm glad to hear you're getting along well in New York. For whom are you working?" Angus considers a moment he= fore he answers" "Mr. "..pike Mudge hired me. 1te'p general manager for 11fr. Castaloni, who'r a big shot in this town and who Oen :a lot of good by protecting people from crooks. It's sorta likw being a cop." The smile doesn't leave Fitz - water's face, but his voice is low- er and he says, "Glad to hear it. Axe you ready, Adoreen? We're late now." * M .Angus is still gloomy when he meets Spike and the boys in the tavern the next afternoon. Spike doesn't look too happy himself. The boys stand in kind of close and keep their hands in their pockets, "Hello, Angus," says Spike. "You're a good guy. It was nice knowin' you." "What's the matter?" Angus asks. "Ain't I been dein' all right?" "It ain't that, Trouble is I don't read the papers much and so I didn't know about things. I didn't know you and the Big Boss are after the same girl." "Addie?" Angus asks, surpris- ed. "She don't know Mr. Caste - Joni. She's hangin' around with a turnip name of Fitzwater." Spike sighs. "It is sad to re- late," he says, "that Mr. Fitz- water and Mr. Castaloni are one and the same person." Angus frowns. He studies the bubbles in his ginger ale a long time. "Why should Mr. Caste- ioni have two names?" "That's a long story. We'll tell you about that later." "Well, I guess I'm fired then. Is that what you wanta tell me?" The boys edge in closer to Angus. Spike pulls his hat down over his eyes and turns his head away. "Nope. Not exactly." He gulps down his drink. "The Boss wants us to take you for a ride." Angus sighs and shakes his head a little. "Well, that's nice of him anyway. I always did wanta see what it looked like around here."

LMS CO SE E TEA AND COFFEE Try Different Dr1rtk c'it M.e eti n 9 Neither coffee nor tea were serv- ed, as is the usual custom, at the quarterly meeting of the local Ladies Aid, but an excellent beverage was used, and the guests commented upon its delicious flavor. The presi- dent explained that the ban on tea and coffee was in deference to the request of the Government. Express- ing satisfaction at the success of the experiment, the chairman said Postum,—the beverage used,—had taken less sugar than would have been used for tea and coffee. It had cost less than either tea or coffee and so was a saving to the treasury, as well as a saving on tea, coffee, sugar. Whether it's a meeting of a society or a meal in your own home, Postum provides the easy way to conserve tea and coffee.

Doctors said workers are eat- ing better food, calling on their doctor and dentist before emerg- encies arise and are more healthy than ever before. Dr. Bernard T. McGhie, deputy Minister of Health, said the pub- lic is becoming increasingly more health -minded and far more re- ceptive to health instruction. Communicable diseases have increased in number since the start of the war, but these are not a vital factor in estimating the public health of the province, authorities said. Driving Ram Tank Needs Strong Arm On mouth ground a Ram tank rides like a heavily loaded truck but when going over rough coun- try, deep -ditches, trees, rocks. it rolls and pitches like a ,ane' in rough water.

There is no such thing as one -arra or one -finger driving in a tank. The steering levers are simply brakes which stop the tracks on one side or the other and so bring the tank around.
