Eddie Martin escaped!
The prison sirens screamed —
guards fine-combed the surrounding
country—every law agency in the
nation went into action.
Get Eddie Martin!
Meanwhile the notorious criminal
was riding under the belly of the
construction dump truck that had
taken him through* the prison east
gate.
By his fingers and toes he clung
to the bottom of the bumping truck
until the driver had parked it for
the night in the company yard. Only
after dark did he venture from his
cramped position.
He wormed his way into the
truckmen’s locker room, and speed
ily changed his prison clothes for a
work outfit. He pulled the cap down
over his eyes, wrapped his fist
around a heavy iron bar, and was
ready to travel.
Via alleys and side streets he
reached the city limits. He avoided
the highway and headed across the
hills. At midnight he reached a
creek, and waded across. They’d
never get him now. He almost ran
the remaining mile to the deserted
shack that would give him needed
refuge.
As he hurried, he remembered the
many times it had given him ref
uge. When he was a youngster, and
his folks lived on the ranch, he and
his older brother, Dan, played "cops
and robbers.’’ Even at that time
he had insisted on being the robber.
Dan was satisfied to be a cop. For
a long time he had used the shed
at the far end of the ranch as his
make-believe hide-out; and Dan
could not find him. Then one day
Dan found his hiding-place, and
the fun was over.
But that had happened when he
was ten years old and only playing
bad man. Now he was the real
thing. The government paid five
thousand dollars reward for him aft
er his last bank job. It would dou
ble that amount to get him back.
He felt quite proud—he had gone
far since he was a "play-robber.”
A short distance from the shed he
stopped and listened. Nobody was
going to outsmart him. Satisfied
that he was alone, he moved to the
shack.
The door was locked, the windows
boarded just as he left them. With
his iron bar he forced the creaky
door on its squeaky hinges. Field
mice scurried outside, birds fiew
frantically from the eaves. He bolt
ed the door, and crossed to the rear
of the room. On his knees he im
patiently brushed aside the cob
webs, and pried loose several floor
boards. He reached down, grasped
the chain handle of a small trunk,
and pulled it to the floor.
First he took out a flashlight, and
directed the glare over the other
contents of the chest He laughed
loudly, triumphantly. Everything
was ship-shape—just as he had
planted it three months ago. There
was the box with the ten thousand
dollars. Here was his gun, wrapped
in felt. There were cartridges and
stuff to clean the revolver in case it
got rusty. And he had a complete
change of clothes.
He could not miss I He had brains.
That’s why, when he got twenty-five
thousand bucks from the last stick-
up, he had only tried to get away
with fifteen—he put the balance in
the trunk with the gat and other
gear. He had cached them just in
case his plans went wrong, and he
failed to get out of the country.
Well, they did go wrong. He had
trusted a guy, and gave him five
grand to help his getaway. The
“pal” had not only taken his money
but squealed on him, and got the
reward, too. But now he was in the
same spot with the same amount
of dough, only this time he could
not fail, because he trusted nobody.
Alone in the dark, he got to think
ing—and whenever it was dark, and
he was alone, he thought of his
mother. He liked Mom, not because
of what she was to him, but because
of the many favors she had done for
him. He remembered how she used
to battle the neighborhood hoodlums
to save him from a beating. She
was always looking out for his good.
Yes, sir. Mom was all right.
He stretched out, and fell into a
peaceful sleep. Two hours later, he
awoke, frightened! He shook with
fear as he grabbed his gun.
A voice called hurriedly, "Eddie,
Eddie!"
It was his brother. He did not
answer. Dan called again, "Eddie,
I must see you!"
Eddie let him in, then slarftmed
the door and bolted it. He jabbed
the revolver into his brother’s ribs.
“You’re still playing cops and rob
bers. But you’ll never live to col
lect my reward."
Dan regarded him coldly. "Mom
wants to see you."
The savage tenseness faded from
Eddie’s face. "No kiddin’? After
all that bunk they printed about
me?”
“She doesn’t know anything about
you,” answered Dan. "She hasn’t
been able to read for six years. I
made up stories, instead of reading
what was there."
"Thanks, Dan, I sure wish I could
see her—but it’s impossible right
now."
"She’s very sick.’’-
"No!”
"It’s your last chance to see her
alive.”
“I’ll go."
He changed quickly Into his good
clothes. He stuffed the gun and
cartridges into his pockets, and car
ried the money container under his
arm. At the door he stopped.
"Listen, Dan, even though were
brothers, we never had any love for
each other. If this is your trick to
turn me in, I’ll get you if it’s the
last thing I do.’’

Series B-41
Dan shook his head in sympathy.
“Don’t you trust anybody?”
“Only me and Mom. Let’s go.”
In Dan’s car they raced for home.
Midway they ran into a heavy
storm. Rain flooded the windshield
faster than the wiper could clear
it. Thunder boomed and lightning
lit the countryside.
The storm was at its height when
they stopped in front of a little white
cottage. Dan jumped out of the car
and ran to the house. Eddie fol
lowed. A flash of lightning, and
Eddie turned to see a police car
skidding to the curb.
Eddie pushed Dan inside and
threw the door shut. He whipped
out his gun, and leveled it at his
brother.
“1 told you I’d get you.”
"But, Eddie,” frantically pleaded
Dan, “I didn’t—”
A crash of thunder drowned out
the revolver shots. Dan fell dead.
The officers were right outside.
Eddie was a caged rat. He yanked
open a door. His mother was lying
in bed.
“Edward—Edward!” she called
weakly.
He glanced at the window—it was
blocked by police. He had no
chance to escape. He held the gun
behind him.
“Hello, Mom," he said.
"I’m so glad you’re here,’’ she
told him. "Are you all right?’
"Sure, Mom, I’m swell.”
She sighed in relief.
“I’ve had a dreadful feeling you
were in danger,” she said, "I even
telephoned the police to protect
you!”
Fish Oat of Place
Nicaragua contains the only
fresh-water lake known to science
in which big salt-water fish abound,
says National Geographic society.
Sawfish of more than 700 pounds,
sharks up to 200 pounds, tarpon
and other landlocked ocean-dwell
ers are caught daily in the waters
of oval Lake Nicaragua, 100 miles
long and 105 feet above the level of
the nearby Pacific ocean. Geolo
gists explain the oddity by saying
the lake was a bay of the ocean
until an earthquake lifted its basin,
locking out the sea. Streams fed by
the region’s heavy, tropical rainfall
gradually have turned the lake
water fresh.

Canning Queries
Pressure cookers and other can
ning equipment will be working
overtime to take care of garden
produce this year, and those of you
who have canned foods undoubted
ly know that it’s a big task, but not
a thankless one when it comes to
next winter’s eating.
There’s no other food task so
gratifying as canning, for once you
are finished, you
have loaded
shelves to look
at. In order to
avoid canning
mistakes and fail
ures, check over
these points.
First, garden-fresh, sound ripe
vegetables are the only kind worth
canning. Unsound produce does not
improve during the canning proc
ess. and it’s a waste of time, money
and food to put stale vegetables
into jars.
Select all vegetables as carefully
for canning as you would for your
most finicky guest, and you’ll be a
long way toward success. Tender
peas, small beets, plump, shiny
com, crisp and meaty beans, etc.
all will give satisfactory results be
cause they are prime produce to
begin with.
Every vegetable should be
washed thoroughly before the skin
is cut or broken. Why? Because
some of them have dirt and fuzz
that is difficult to remove once It
becomes mixed with the juicy con
tent.
Pre-cooking and hot packing gives
best results, as this method shrinks
the vegetables and gives a better
looking pack as well as less shrink
age in the jar.
Use Pressure Cooker
Some women can can consistently
and successfully by processing veg
etables in a hot water bath. Either
they are very careful workers or
just plain lucky. However, fool
proof results are best obtained by
using a steam pressure cooker. It
is possible to bring food to a higher
temperature in this way and kill
harmful bacteria, thus avoiding
spoilage.
Canning also may be done in
much less time with a pressure
cooker, and there is less opportu
nity to lose food values in this way.
Fortunately, the equipment is now
available, or in many communi
ties it is obtainable on a communal
basis at a canning center or such.
Boil Before Serving
One of the basic rules for home-
canned vegetables is to boil the
canned vegeta
ble 10 to 15 min
utes before tast
ing or using.
Never taste a
vegetable which
you may suspect
is spoiled. If you
are certain of
spoilage, discard
it; if not sure, cook it first and
then taste.
This boiling is best done in an
open saucepan. The rule applies to
all vegetables except tomatoes and
red pimientoes, which are acid veg
etables and hence in a somewhat

Braised Lamb Steaks
Parsleyed Potatoes
Green Beans
Carrot-Raisin Slaw
Biscuits and Honey
Fresh Cherry Pie Beverage
different class from non-acid vege
tables such as peas, beans, com,
etc.
Some questions always come up
concerning particular vegetables
during canning time. Typical
queries are these, and here are the
answers:
What causes cloudiness in canned
peas? This may be caused by in
sufficient cooking or some mineral
in the water used for canning. Prop
er pre-cooking or soft, distilled wa
ter eliminates the cloudiness.
How high shall I pack vegetables?
Pack them to within % inch of the
top of the jar, except peas, lima
beans and corn, which are packed
to within one inch of the top to
allow for extra expansion.
What causes corn to torn brown In
the can? Most often this is due to
a high tempera
ture used during
canning, which
carmeUzes the
com. Sometimes
a high deposit of
mineral such as
iron in water
used for canning
will cause it.
Why do beets
turn white? This
may be due to
certain varieties or to too old beets.
Use the very dark red kind, and
see that they are young and freshly
gathered.
Why do vegetables fall apart
when home canned? This is due to
overprocessing or overcooking in
pressure cooker or water bath.
Watch the time and check with
timetable to avoid this error.
Shall I overprocess or underproc
ess? Neither is good, but under
processing probably will result in
spoilage while overcooking will give
you wilted looking goods that do
not hold their shape.
How much shall I can at one
time? Unless you have help for
preparing the vegetables, it is best
to do it in several small batches
so vegetables do not spoil. If you
can get the produce from garden to
kettle—or jar—within two hours you
are working according to the best
rule. Much depends upon your own
speed and ability.
How much salt should be used?
Season according to taste or not at
all. Most people are satisfied if one
teaspoon of salt to each quart of
vegetable is added as a last meas
ure to the jar before it is closed.
Should jar tops be wiped before
cover is placed on jar? Yes, this
is essential to remove any bits of
vegetable, water or salt which
might prevent a perfect seal.
What kind of covers should I use?
There are a number of good vari
eties available, and each should be
used according to the manufactur
er’s directions.

LYNN SAYS:
Glamorize Foods
Before Serving .
For both fruit and vegetable sal
ads you may use the prongs of the
fork for fluting such things as cu
cumbers and bananas.
Use vegetables prepared in molds
to make vegetable platters more at
tractive. Carrots, peas and spin
ach are nice to look at when served
in a ring mold. Use a contrasting
colored vegetable in the center of
the mold.
Ring black or green olives around
the sides of a meat salad bowl to
make it look attractive.
Never overcook food if you want
it to look nice on the platter. Have
it crisp looking even if cooked.
If vegetables lack appeal for the
children, invest in a set of fancy
vegetable cutters and use these
for a change to add interest.
Use your gayest mats or linens
when serving out on the porch or
lawn. Pottery and heavy goblets
are ideal for service here.
