he found that Bobby Wallace was out with a prospect, and he had to wait for more than an hour before the young man returned. When Bobby finally did come In. he came over to Larry with a smile and an outstretched hand. Larry shook his hand and said quietly, "Bobby, I've got to have 2 HiUle talk with you. Pan you come for a while and perch In my car with me?" "Why.

sure. What's up?" "Tell you when we get outside." They walked to where Larry's car was parked and pot into tin 1 front seat. "Bobby," Larry at last. "I think you've just done the moft foolish thing of your whole life, and I want you to tell nie everything you can remember about it." Bobby looked st him in uUer wonder. "Tell me," said Larry, "-11 about those bonds you sold to Don Montague." "Those began Bobby.

He turned toward trie detective. "Why, what's wrong with them' 5 Larry smiled a wry smile. "Nothing," he said, "except that they were stolen from the National Bank of Neoia. a month and a half ago, by the Red Jackson Funs. That's all" Bobby gaped, his mouth open, his vocal chords seemingly unable to function.

At last he managed to gulp, "Stolen?" "Yes. Those were what we call hot bonds. Bobby. We've been looking tor them Tor weeks in the hope that their appearance would lead us to the gangsters. And when we do find discover that you yourself sold It took Bobby another minute to collect his faculties sufficiently to tell his story, but at last he man- to do it.

In halting, uneer- sentences he told the whole Jwry. aided by Larry's quiet but in- questions. TF7HEN the boy finished he sat in the corner of the seat and listened to Larry's brief, succinct explanation of the true circumstances of the deal. At last he shook his bead in bitter self-con- demnaticn. "Did you ever see a bigger fool than me?" he asked miserably.

Larry smiled at him. "You have been pretty mnch of a fool. liohliy." he said. "I think we r.i arrange things so that the consequences won't be too serious for Bobby's face suddenly became white. It had not occurred to him before that by dealing in stolen bonds he had made himself criminally liable.

main thing." Larry was saying, "is to run down this gang and get them all locked up. First of all. can you remember where that apartment was that they took you to?" Bobby wrinkled his brows, then shook his head slowly. "Not exactly." he said. "I remember it was out on the west side in an apartment hotel, but I didn't pay much attention to where we were going.

It was off West Park boulevard somewhere. I remember." "You didn't notice the oi the building?" The boy shook his head unhappily. "No. Gosh, I'm sorry." "Think you'd know it again if you saw it?" Bobby thought this over. "I might.

Yes. I think I would." there aren't so many apartment hoteU out that way but what we ought to be able to find it. Now, about another thing, Bobby. You say this Lewis 10.000 to buy a car. I didn't know your firm had any cars that cost that much." "We don't." said Bobby.

"Sixty four hundred is tops with our line. lie said it was a special custom job." Larry was silent for a moment. Then be said: "Bobby, you'll help nie all you can. won't you?" "Lord, yes," said Bobby fer- "1 ently. you ever hear ot armored cai'8T I don't mean like the express trucks; I mean cars that gangsters use, made out oi bullet-proof steel, with bulletproof glass in the windows, and so on." DOBEY nodded.

He looked up suddenly and asked, "You think "it might be." said Larry slowly. "Listen, Bobby, we've never yet been able, to find out where those cars are made. Somebody must have a pretty elaborate sort of factory somewhere to turn them out; but wherever it is, it's pretty well concealed. All we can learn is that the most successful gangsters do manage to get them. N'ow there's Just a rhance that this $10,000 purchase of Lewis's was one of these (cars.

If he paused to let his words sink in: "If so, that means that State Auto Sales. is a secret distributing point for them." Bobby gasped, and once more murmured "Good Lord!" weakly. "Did you ever that car?" asked Larry. "Not close up," said Bobby. "I remember the morning Lewis came for it.

Mr. Hopkins himself took him back into the shop, and next I saw Lewis was driving away in it. It was just a big sedan; looked like any other good car as far as I could see." Larry nodded. "They do," he said. "You could even ride in one without knowing what it was, unless you knew what to look for.

The window glass is extra thick, for'one the car is almost twice as heary as the ordinary car." There was another silence. "I doubl if that car would have been kept in the shop for any length of time, if it really was what we Larry went on at last. "I wish you'd keep your ears open as wide as go and see if you can find out anything about it. Don't make yourselt conspicuous by asking questions, of course. But if you can flna out about at all.

no matter how unimportant it may seem, that is the least bit out of the a note of it and let me know. This may be a false trail: everything about that car may have been perfectlv proper and legal: but we'll take no chances. Will you see wbot you can learn?" "1 will," said Bobby eagerly. "Now there's one thing moie. before 1 go." said Larry.

"It's about Jean." "DOBBY looked at him quickly. "Montague didn't involve her in any of this bond business, did he?" "No. But I'm worried about her. How much has she been seeing of this fellow Harkins?" Bobby shook hla head slowly. "Not very much.

I don't think," he said. "She never says anything about him to me. Of couse. she saw him two or three times there at the Golden Feather, but that was two weeks ago or more." "I hope you're right. The one thing that would be worse than letting you get mixed 5P with this mob would be for her to become infatuated with one of its members." Bobby's eyes grew wider.

"Oh, I don't think you need worry about that," he said hastily, "iean and mean, we'fe going to get married at least I think we are. I Larry smiled at him. "You mean you think she is too fond of you to become dazzled by anyone else?" Bobby blushed. "Well, I sort ot hope so. anyway," he said.

"So do said Larry. "For the sake of both of you." "Is this Harkins really a gangster?" asked Bobby after a moment. "I think he is," said Larry. "If I can get at that hangout of theirs I ought to be able to find out definitely. But even If be isn't, he's keeping awfully bad company." He smiled.

"Surely there aren't two people around town who are as trustingly innocent as you." He let Bobby out of his car and drove back to the federal building. He had hardly entered his office when his phone rang. Agent Frank Watson was on the line. "We located the hangout," he said. "It's in the West Park Hotel, on West Ninety-eighth street." "Good," said Larry.

"Anybody home?" "No. That's the trouble. They checked out an hour ago. Lewis and the girl." "Stay there," said Larry. "I'll be out as fast as I can get there." (To Be Continued) Judge In Case A.

Chaput. I I Suggests Limited I Protein Feed For Spring, Summer Pigs C. Culuertson. chief uf the animal production section at Iowa State co.lege, today suggested that Iowa farmers add limited amounts of a protein supplement to the ration of spring- and eariy summer farrowed pigs. Now that pastures are about gone.

Mr. Culberlson aiivised that 100 to 150-pound pigs which have been on pasture all summer and I fed only a limited grain ration be given oiii-fourth pound of tankage or its equivalent in their daily ration. One-fourth pound of tankage fed to hogs of these weights stimulates feed consumption and increases the rate of gain so that ovtr the fattening period it is really equal to feeding two additional poundJ of corn piT day, explained Mr. Culbertson.
