A Soul Stirring And Pertinent - Observation

"The man who has a vicious beast. and who, knowing its dis- pogition, pllovws it liberty, is by the laws of the land held account- able for the evil the beast may do. in the laws" given to Israel. it was directed that when a beast l.-mown to be vicious caused the death of a human being. the life of the owner should pay the price of his carelessness or mallgnity. On the same principle the government that licenses the liquor seller. should be responsible for the re- sults of his traffic. And if it is a crime worthy of death to give li- berty to a vicious beast. how much greater is the crime of sanction- ing the work of the liquor seller!”

Humorous If Not So Tflllu

Accldentli caused by drlnkini drivers have become so painfully conspicuous that thoughtful men have attempted In overcome their own horror of the situation by puns. satire and humor. A few are quoted here for their real wisdom

"Automobiles continue to be driven at Just two speeds lawful and awful."

"One improvement we would like to see on automobiles is a de- vice to make the brakes get tight ftxhen the driver does."

"Most auto accidents occur on Saturday and Sunday. It's a great life if you don't weekend.

"We never could understand are too young to work under in but are old enough to drive a 51.500 car '10 miles tin hour."

"Mien still die with their on - but usually one boot .he accelerator."

"The old narrow trails where two cars could hart-ly pass without colliding are happily being re- placed by wide highways on which six or eight cars can t'ollidt' at one time."

"Social rlrinkina. which loads to alcohol addiciinti. is the cause of more idleness and deaths in the United States than any other single factor,” says Dr. Scarlc

Harris. former president of the Medical Amoclittinn of Alabama. And life insurance statistics prove the truth of this assertion.”

Murder is , Forgetful 1

By WILLIAM noosnr E (Continued) O O Q I Johnny saw the expression OIII young Kay's face. There we; a manner about her that told John-! ny not to be surprised by any of her mother's actions... "Come." susgested Irene. puttingl her arm through his. she nodded toward eeversl chairs near the awlmminr mi. "These people an- noy me." There were white metal chairs close to the i)ool's edge. and they sat there. Irene Smith drew her chair close to his, reaching out to clasp his hands. "Why didn't: you tell me you We"! 801118 away. Bart?" Her gray, eyes seemed to scold him. "Well..." i "I had arranged to have dinner for you that evening. renlt3l'f1bEi”.' And then, suddenly. you had gone away. I felt terrible, Barton." ”So did 1." Johnny hedged. He paused and wondered who Barton was and what approach he should take. "15 there something wrong. dar- ling?” Per eyes watched the calm surface of the nearby water. "You haven't called me Marie once since you've returned" He said. "No. there's not a thing wrong. I've missed you too." "Hummm." Her eyes were closed. "I said..." He paused. Johnnyl suddenly thought it. was too bad) she had been in an accident. He- imagined she'd had a very brilliant mind. The nurse said. "she gets liiF.s'! drowsy spells olten. They come over her suddenly." Johnny stood up. The woman int the stiff white woman had op-l prosched so quietly across the lawn

that he had not heard her. "Who is Bart?" he asked. . The nurse shook her head. "She

has never used the name beforcf Karen struck Johnny Saxon as bl--' in; cool and efficient and reserved.. Her hair and eyes were very dark. and there was enough coloring to her face to tffer I nice contrast. "If you don't mind..." Karen moved toward Irene Smith's chair.I "I'll take her to her room." she. uld. ”She seems to tire very eas- ily. Its time for her nap." Johnny started toward the house. He opened one of the two screen doors decorated with expensive bronze hardware and stepped in-' side the house. He found himswf in a spacious hallway which ended at a wide flight of stairs.

Johnny moved to the first door-l way on his right and saw a lonani book-lined library. He turned a- round as he heard rapid atepsl hurrying through the hall. I A thin. little man went scurry- ing down the length of the hall. He walked with the quick, ener- getic steps of I. woman. and John- ny caught I. glimpse of I. shock of

is-hits hair. The man bent down and fitted at M" W" Ml"

key into the lock of one door. He tried several keys; apparently he had a flstful. He went to work with determination. fitting first one key and then another into the hure lock.

The huge Great Dane appeared in one of the arehwlyl across the hall. stretched himself lastly. then trotted over to investigate whntthe little gray-haired man was doing.

'i'he man said. "Go away. Mich- ael." His voice was inclined to be shrill and sharp. He certainly was no youngster.

The little. old guy was still try. in: keys in the lock. He kept mut- mine to himself. Johnny uw that. his pockets were pulled out of shape by the weight of the keys.

"Maybe the door's open," sug- gested Johnny.

The man straightened. 'iHow's that?" asked the oldster. squlnting out of small bright eyes.

"I said. maybe the dot:-r's already open." stepping forward, he start- ed to reach for the doorknob.

”of course it's open!" mapped the man. reaching out and open- ing the door ahead of Johnny.

Johnny's dork brows arched above his eyes. He said, "My name is Saxon. I'ni. .."

"Your partner's upstairs.” said the old man. Then he turned and hurried down the service hallway that was beyond the door.

"The devil!" murmured Johnny.

Later. Johnny found himself in a room oored with pale green tile. Fla is and flowers grew ev- erywhere. somewhere water trick- led over stones. It was a nice, pleasant sound.

Key was lying on I wickerlounge. her head buried in her arms. Her taiined lest were straight and slim.

Johniiy sat. down and lit it tig- zireite. "It was tough about your

father." he said. "1 can understand

Kay murmured her thanks. "rt wasn't father." The remark eur- prlsed him. "I was thinking of mother. Mother doesn't remember us. She thinks she knows you. Yet she recalls nothing. Nothing at elll' Her lips trembled slightly. she had a nicely formed. determined mouth.

Johnny reached out and pulled a chromium ash stand toward him. "I underr your mother was examined by one of the best doc- tors in New York. What did the doctor think about her case?" He added, "It. really is loss of mem- ory?"

"Oh. yea! There was some slight concussion. too. but the specialist said it was nothing serious. They eventtook x-rays. All they can surmise is that mother must have driven the car off the road. crash- ed and wss knocked unconscious for some time."

"Then the accident wasn't dis- covered right away?"

"No...

"so your father wasn't found in the car at all?"

she shook her head. "He was discovered some distance bsck down the highway---Wmlih proves that someone must have ordered mother to drive on stone."
