GRINSTEAD'S GRAPHIC
excellent understanding that exists be-
tween employer and employee throughout
this country. It is to be hoped that th: ,
condition will forever do away with the
agitators who lived not by the sweat of
their faces, but by sunburning their tonsils
in an effort to make trouble. No one sup-
poses that there will ever come a time
when a perfect relation exists between the
laborer and the employer. From time tLU
time there will be an employer who is a
selfish hog, with no regard for the rights
of others. From time to time there will bean employee who has no regard for t1ne
rights of others, and is a workman instead
of a pirate simply because he is afraid of
the law. Whenever two men like that
come together in this old world there is
going to be a bit of a clash. But, under
the modern way of handling big business,
and under the prevailing laws that govern
such things, clashes will be restricted to
such cases, and they can never reach a
magnitude that will interfere with the real
work of the world of humanity.The Throat of the World
By J. E. GrinsteadCHAPTER XI
TIIE CRIME OF INCONSTANCY
One of the reasons that Red was so in-
tensely loyal to Whalen was that Horace
had never quit him, and had been the
chief agency that had rescued him from
inevitable ruin. Whalen knew that in
those sleepy blue eyes there dwelt a demon
of rage, that when aroused was as fiendish
and implacable as Satan himself. He
also knew that those preternaturally long
arms and legs possessed the strength of
woven steel, and the unyielding tenacity
of the tentacles of a devilfish. More than
that, he knew that the comfortable cuddle
of an automatic was no stranger to Red,
and that his lanky partner had the sand to
use it, or not use it, as the case might
require.
"Two blocks farther to Hinklebaum's,''
announced Larry.''Good! Stop in the middle of this
block, and wait for me."
By the time the car stopped, Whalen
was out and walking toward a drugstore.
Marcia Mackensen had promised to an-
swer the telephone every time Miss Geneva
Martin was called. He had not called her
sooner, because he didn't want to seem
unduly suspicious. It was now ten o'clock.
In the booth he got the number, and a
woman's voice answered:
"Miss Martin? No, she isn't in just
now. She left in a car with some one, just
a few minutes ago. Any message?'
"No, thank you,'' and Whalen hung up.
A moment later he called another
number.
"Hello. Markham speaking.''
"Anybody called for me, or any mess-
ages ?'' asked Whalen.
"Who are you?"
I'm-I got some messages there this
evening, and I thought there might be
some more." S
