55 Early the next morning Kelly and the D.A. were knocking at the door of the Van Astor home. nGee chief, I wish you'd tell me what's up.H nJust walt, Kelly, and you shall see. In case i'm wrong---U He left the rest of the sentence unuttered as the door opened and they were admitted by an English valet who informed them that Mrs. Van Astor was breakfasting on the terrace. - nGood morning, Mr. District Attorney and Kelly. Won't you sit down and have a cup of coffee with me?n No, thank you, ma'am, and what I'm here for isn't very' . pleasant, so the sooner I get it over with the better. I have here a newspaper clipping of your late husband with his first wife. As you know, they went abroad to Japan and a child was born to them there. He was called back to the U. S. on business, but he left his wife and child there, intending to follow on the next boat, but that night there was a tremendous earthquake and no trace was ever found of the wife or child, but in his will he left a provision that if this child were ever found to be alive that half of his wealth was to go to hern Here he paused and noticed how pale the woman had become. nHow do you know all of this?H she exclaimed. WAnd,n he paused significantly, non your tour abroad, you found a trace of the girl, had her brought back here and brought up by some poor people but when they died, you decided something had to be done to get rid of the child in case she ever found out her true identity. As a rich and well-known woman you had access to all the rich homes and you began a series of robberies and last night as a climax you planted your necklace in her bag and the other rocks in her room. As she has accompanied you to all the robbed homes you thought she would be blamed, arrested and out of your way. A fiendish plan, Mrs. Van Astor.n ' A t nYou can't prove a thing Mr. D.A., coldly replied Mrs. Van s or. X nLast night a raid was carried-out on a place where stolen jewels are sold and the crook did not hesitate to tell on you. I'd advise you to come along quietly.n The next morning the D.A.'s phone rang, and from the look on his face Kelly knew that it was not bad news. As Nelson put the receiver on the hook, he turned to Kelly and said, HI have been reappointed for another year.u Limerick Ruth Abare '46 There was a young fellow named Tate, Who thought that the army would waitg But his thinking was slow, For he's now G. I. Joe, Past private he never will rate.
