E. J. 0. Fraser, D.D., veteran missionary from Korea and for-' mer minister of the Margate Past- oral Charge as he addressed the Presbytery of the United Church of Canada at its meeting in Heart: Memorial Hall, Charlottetown, on Tuesday. Dr. Fraser expressed the hope that Korea. will still hold its free- dom and that Christian work will go on as before. He said that since the second world war 80 Wmk mum new churches had been built. He pointed out that in the 1950 elec- tion 9376 of the voters voted and 2079 of the members elected were Christians when only 375 of the population are Christian. He spoke of the needs or used clothing and said: "Instead of having rummage sales. send your used clothing to Korea where they are more need- ed." The Church needs more mis- sionaries and more money to send them out. Mr. W. E. Brooks gave the report or the Layman's Association and informed the court that during the past year nine laymen assist- ed in 46 services and visited twen- ty-eigbt Charges in the Presby- tery. He announced that plans are being made to hold the annual lay conference again this summer.

Her hair. gently bx-ugh- ing his face, was still slightly damp from their narrow escape from death in the harbor. A light be- hind them in the hallway revealed the reddish-gold tints when it swept back from her forehead. He uplifted her chin with his fingers, and said. grinning, "Come on. you're a big girl now." She smiled. Her eyes were bright and shining. "Johnny," she start- ed. "I think you're swell. I..." ' He had started to indicate the next door along the hallway. be- hind them.

The bedroom on the far side of Kar- en's is a spare guest room." "Bedrooms all over the place," said Johnny. Kay pointed to a closed door directly opposite them. Her man- ner had changed again. swiftly, and her eyes darkened in the way the sea can siiddenly change with the overhead passing of a storm cloud. "That was father's room," she said without expression. Johnny said nothing. His eyes did not reveal the thought that coursed through his mind. That door directly across the hall.... just I plain, heavy-paneled door ...yet it held a peculiar fascina- tion. Tho portal to a millionaires bedroom. A man who'd had every- thing money could buy. Now he was dead-murdered. Why he had been kl1led...who had killed him...was still a mys- tery. The round that rocked Johnny Saxon back on his heels was sharp. high-pitched, startling. A scream! It came from the bedroom behind him. He saw Kay's eyes :l'issh'wide with horror. "Motheri" she gasped. Johnny Saxon flung open the door and was several strides in- side the blue-and-white bedroom before Kay's muscles . , d s and she followed. Irene smith. partly disrobed. lay half across the bed on her right side. Her soft, reddish hair spilled over her creamy shoulders, covered part of her face. She did not stir. The girl choked, "Mother..." Johnny grasped the woman's left wrist with one hand and brushed her hair back from her face with the other. He raised an eyelid quickly. He felt a. steady pulse beating against his fingers. "She's only fainted." he with relief. Key was bending down over the bed. She started rubbing her mother's wrists. 'You think she's all right?" Johnny didn't take time to an- swer. He swung across the wide bedroom. Probably ten seconds had elapsed-since they heard Irene Smith's scream. There was an im- pression in Johnny's mind that the latch on the balcony screen door had clicked faintly as he rushed into the room. Determin- ation nnrrowed his eyes as he moved fast toward the porch door. Outside, windows of the many bedrooms faced an the long rec- tangle of the balcony. Light shone from one or two windows; the others were like slghtless dark eyes in the warm night. He listen- ed intently. There was no sound. Then his pulse quickened as he saw it vague shadow slide past one of the open windows. He had barely seen the movement.
