SHE WANTED A HERO
By William L Roper
K ATHY McCALEB smiled as
Jimmy Ainsworth approached
the booth in Johnson’s Drug Store
where she sat sipping a soda
“Why, Jimmy,’* she exclaimed,
“why so glum? What’s happened?”
“Anerythropsia is the word,”
Jimmy 'said morosely, sitting down
beside her. “Means color blind to
red. Chief Hanson just told me
why they rejected my application
for that spot on the police force.**
“Oh,” she said, and Jimmy
could see she was taking tb* news
even harder than he had hoped
she would. “I’d counted so much
on your getting that job, Jimmy.
It would’ve been so much more
glamorous and heroic than clerk
ing in an old hardware store.*’
Jimmy flushed. “Clerking isn’t
such a bad job, Kathy. Besides
I’ll probably get a raise after the
first of the year and we—**
“Yes, I know. And it’s safe,**
Kathy said wistfully. “But I’ve al
ways wanted to feel that my hus
band was a hero.”-
Kathy had finished her soda
when a heavy-set man with a dark
mustache entered the store. His
right arm was suspended in a sling.
Kathy glanced at the man and
back to Jimmy. “I’m going to give
you a little test of my own,” she
said, smiling. “What color is that
man’s hair?”
Jimmy studied the man. “Isn’t
slate gray, is it?”
“No, stupid, it’s red,” Kathy
laughed. “A rather peculiar red,
almost too dark for his pale com
plexion.’’
Jimmy laughed. “Now you’re
playing detective. I think that’s
why you wanted me to get that
job on the force, so you could play
detective.”
The stranger turned and stared
in their direction. Kathy lowered
her voice. “No, but I’ve studied
cosmetology and know something
of hair shades.”
“Is his mustache the same color
as his hair?” Jimmy asked. “Looks
darker to me.”
- “It’s red, too. Almost the same
{hade.” Kathy took her compact
frorh her bag and powdered her
nose. “Really, Jimmy, don’t they
look the same to you?”
“No, they’re distinctly different,”
Jimmy replied.
“Perhaps, he’s wearing a wig
and a false mustache, and they
don’t match,” Kathy said jokingly.
“Very likely,” Jimmy grinned.
Kathy clapped her 1 hands excited
ly. “Beally! That gives me an
idea. Here, Jimmy, read the paper
while I make a phone calL* She
shoved ffie morning paper across
the table toward the surprised
Jimmy and darted away.
A news story on the front page
caught his eye. It told about a drug
store holdup in the nearby town
of Carter’s Junction. A stocky
man, carrying a gun concealed in
a sling on his right arm, had held
up the druggist and escaped with
a supply of - narcotics. Jimmy
glanced from the paper to the
man standing in front of the pre
scription counter.
Sliding noiselessly from his seat,
Jimmy moved quietly toward the
stranger. In spite of his caution,
he brushed against a toothpaste
exhibit, causing the display to
clatter to the floor.
With a startled exclamation, the
man spun around, and Jimmy
could see the automatic pointing
at him from the arm-sling. ^
“Easy, big boy,** the man
warned. Jimmy ducked and made
a flying tackle. There was a blind
ing flash as the gun roared. The
bullet zipped by Jimmy’s head.
Then Jimmy and the gunman
were struggling on the floor, Jim
my clawing desperately for the
gun. They were still locked in the
deadly struggle when Chief Han
son and one of his men dashed in
to the store.
“I called them on a hunch, when
you insisted this fellow’s mustache
and hair were different in color,”
Kathy told Jimmy, after the hand
cuffs had clicked on the gunman’s
wrists. “But, Jimmy, I’ve changed
my mind. I don’t want you to be
a policeman after all It’s too dan
gerous.”

The Years Between
And Accomplishment
I

'Mi
9 • i ..
These are the short and precious years that belong to us as parents.
From birth to age 18. After that our children move out into the influences
of a world for which we have tried to prepare them. 1
All we would do to justify their faith in us, and our hope for them, must
be done while they need us. If we fail them once, we cannot go back
again into their lives at that point to repair the damage.
The cost today of rearing a child from birth to age 18 m $11,641 in the
average income family—$53.89 a month. What the mother contributes
N ^ * •
to the home in labor and management is not included. •
\
i *
How much would it cost if the father had to hire someone to do for his
*
children all the mother does, in case of her death? How much time could
a mother devote to her children if she had to earn her living and theirs,
if their father died prematurely? A SAVINGS ACCOUNT can’t replace
parents. But it does help either one of them, alone, 16 do the job of both.
OPEN ONE TODAY.
