THE UNION JACK - Why is our flag called the Union Jack? Strange name for a. flag. isn't it, when you come to think of it Why "Union." and why "Jack"? It is like this. The original flag of ' England was the banner of St ‘ George a red cross on a white "ground. When James oi Scotland __and flay their wings. "Ono l n, ~ ‘ti- became also King of England, the banner of St Andrew-a diagonal white cross on a blue ground-was combined with St. George's ban- nor. Then came the iinlon with Ire- land and the banner of St- Patrick-a diagonal led cross on a white ground was added This gave us the now familiar flag ~Union, because it was made up oi the banners of the united countries. Jack is a form of the name King James in Latin- Jacobus- in whose reign the flag came into use. RIIUBARIS MARMALADE Six pounds rhubarb. 6 pounds sugar Zorringes, 2 lemon. 1-4 pound walnuts.

Unfortunately, however, this plain and simple road to domestic bliss is filled with unexpected pitfalls. One of these is the fact that we are not likely to fall in love with those whose faults and foibles we know only it is strangers who allure us to whom we endow with every quality that we would like our hero or heroine to pmisess. Mary Jane who lives on our block stands nakedly forth with all the angles of her disposition plainly visible, but visiting Julieifs idiosyncrasies fancy in which we have draped her.

She was. she was well aware, the principal object of attention in Slttaford at present, and it was only natural that Captain Wyatt should wish to have a look at her as well as everyone else. "I don't know about well." said Captain Wyatt. "l-le sold inc this cottage." "Yes." said Emily encouragingly. "A skinfllnt, that's what he was." said Captain Wyatt.

"Mrs. Wiilett is not seeing anyone this morning." ‘I have brought a note from Miss Percehouse," said Emily. This clearly altered matters. Emily was ushered into what house agents describe as "a well-appointed hall," and from there into a large drawing room. A fire was burning brightly "If! m9" were traces of feminine occupation in the room. some glass tulips, an elaborate workbng, a. girl's hat. and a Pierrot doll with vcry 1M8 less. were lying about.

So mudh character, I always think, but I am rather afraid of her really." "She's a bully, isn't she?" agreed Emily cheerfully. "But it's an awful temptation to be a bully, especially if people won't stand up to you." Miss Wliiett sighed. _ "I wish I could stand up to peo- ple." she said: “We've had the most awful morning absolutely pestercd by reporters." "Of, of course." said Emily. "This is Captain Trevelyanshouse really, isn't it?—the man who was murder- ed at Exhampton." She was trying to determine the exact cause of Violet Wiliett's ner- vousness. The girl was clearly cn the Jump. Something was frighten- ing her-and frightening her badly. She mentioned Captain Treveiyans name bluntly on purpose. The girl didn't noticeably react to it in any way, but then she was probably ex- pecting some such reference. “Yes, wasn't it dreadful?" "Do tell met-that's if you don't mind talking about it?" “No-no — of course not - why should I?" “There's something very wrong with this girl,"'thought Emily. “She hardly knows what she's saying." “About that table turning." went on Emily. “Iheard about it ln n casual sort of way "and it seemed to me so frightfully interesting —- 1 mean so absolutely gruesome." "Girlish thrills." she thought to herself, "that's my line." “Oh, it was horrid." said Violet. “That evening—l shall never forget it. We thought, of course, that it was ‘fly just fooling — only it seemd a very nasty kind of joke." “Yes?” q "I shall never forget when we turned the lights on — everybody looked so queer. Not Mr. Duke and Major Bumaby-they are the stoiid kind, they would never like to ad- mit that they were improssed b) anything of that kind. But you could see that Major Burnaby was really awfully rattled by it. I think that actually he believed in it more than little Mr. Rycroft was going to ilavc a heart, attack or something. and as for Ronnie. Ronnie Garfield you know-ho looked as though he had seen a. ghost-actually seen one. Even mother was awfully upset- more than I have ever seen her be- fore." “It must have been most spooky," said Emily. "I wish I had been there to see." "It was rather horrid really. We all pretended it was-just fun, you know, but it didn't seem like that. And then Major Burnaby suddenly made up his mind to go over to Ex- hnmpton and we all tried to stop him, and said he would be buried in a snowdrift. but he would go. And there we sat. after he had gone, all feeling dreadful and wor- ried. And then, last night-no, yes- |terday morning-we got the news." “You think it was Captain Trev- clyaris spirit?" said Emily in an awed voice. "Or do you think it was clairvoyance or telepathy?" "Oh. I don't know. But I shall never. never lnught at these things again." The parlormaid entered wltri a folded piece of paper on a salver which she‘ handed to Violet. Violet unfolded the paper. glanced over it and handed it to Emily. “more you are," she said. "As a matter of fact you are lust in time. This murder business has upset the servants. They think it's dangerous to live in this out of the way part. Mother lost her temper with them yesterday evening and has sent them all packing. They are going after lunch. We are going to get two men instead. l think it will answer much better." "Servants are silly, aren't they?" said Emily.

"Oh, she's quite well really. énly the servants — and all the worry." Aclroitly, unperceived by the oth- er. Emily managed to discard her gloves on a small table. The parlor- maid who had opened the door to Emily had unlocked it. but as Violet Willett closed it behind her retreat- tihe key being turned. When she reached the gate therefore. she re- tracod her steps slowly. Her visit had more than confirm- ed the theories she held about Sltta- ford House. There was something queer going on here. _ She didn't think Violet Willett was directly 1m- plicated - that is unless dhe was a very clever actress indeed. But there was something wrong, and that something must have a connection with the tragedy. There must be some link between the Willetts and Captain Trevelyan, and in that link there might lie the clue to the whole mystery. She came up to the front door. turned the handle very gently and passed across the threshold. The hall was descerted. Emily had her excusc- the gloved left thoughtfully behind in the drawing room. She stood stock still listening. There was no sound anywhere, xcopt a very faint murmur of voices from up- stairs. As quietly aspossible‘ Emily crept to the foot of the stairs and stood looking up. Then. "fiery gin- gerly she ascended a. step at a time. This was rather morerlsky. She could ‘hardly pretend that her gloves had walked of their own ac- cord to the first floor, but she had a burning desire to overhear some- thing of the conversation that was going on upstairs. Modern builders never made their doors fit well. in Emily's opinion. You could hear a murmur of voices down here.
