Speaker 4 (03:52):
Throat as I was saying, Lamont, these long sea voyages
(04:13):
are boring, definitely positively bory. I'm afraid I can't agree
with you, sir, John, my dear boor are you pulling
my leg again? First you tell me you possess powers
of hypnosis, and now the subject is ocean voyagers and
you tell me they're not boring. So I can't seem
to agree with you about anything.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I don't mean to be stubborn, sir, but I can't
help feeling that there's a certain excitement about the water,
my dear boy. Pacts are facts.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
I've owned this shop for three years, sailed around the world,
an outside of a few beastly storms, I might as
well be riding on top of a London bus in Piccadilly.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Second, where said John, I repeat, I don't agree with you.
Take this part of the Caribbean Sea we're vacationing in now.
Years ago these waters were the happy hunting ground of
Captain Kidd and Morgan and.
Speaker 5 (04:59):
Many other pirate So what about pirates? Hello Margot, good morning.

Our Captain Sena. Sure there isn't any more excitement left
at see.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Ain't a John? I say?
Speaker 1 (05:34):
You know, Sir John, I've got a hunch that during
these next few hours, as we Americans say, you're going
to eat those words.
Speaker 7 (05:55):
The march, shall we go down and watch and take
out of the cow board.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Oh my, you want to watch the ship go under?
Speaker 7 (06:02):
Oh it's horrible, isn't it? As if something living? We're done? Yes,
what is the matter?
Speaker 1 (06:09):
I am wondering why that ship is sinking so quickly? Oh?
Speaker 7 (06:12):
Thet you've got the most suspicious mind.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Here comes to John. He's bringing one of the survivors
up here.
Speaker 7 (06:18):
Isn't he the strangest of men with us? Saw so fat?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
And you do you means so quickly?
Speaker 4 (06:23):

Oh yes, of course I have made the introduction, have
i miss lane?
Speaker 5 (06:36):
Mister Carnton? This is captain Captain.
Speaker 8 (06:39):
My name is most difficult. They just call me Captain Joe.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Captain Joe.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
And speaking of captains, here comes our own captain, well,
Captain Neilsen.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
Everything all right, yes, sir John, but.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
We are having a little difficulty with the rescued men.
Speaker 8 (06:55):
They apparently don't speak English, and the refuse.
Speaker 5 (06:58):
To go below deck with the result.
Speaker 7 (07:00):
Look, it's thinking, Jehorne the final plan.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
There she goes, well, Captain Joe, your ship is gone.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
That is not right.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
What do you mean said?
Speaker 5 (07:14):
He just went me? But I got a new ship.
Speaker 8 (07:18):
Oh maybe I forgot to tell you what that is?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Too bad?
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Well I tell you now, Sano Sanorita.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
He is my new ship. What are you talking about?
Speaker 7 (07:30):
What did you hear what he's saying?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Yes, I heard, but I think it's up to Captain
Nielsen to handle this.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
Thank you, mister Granston.
Speaker 8 (07:37):
But I'm sure this gentleman is having a joke.
Speaker 5 (07:40):
After all, as a man of the.
Speaker 8 (07:41):
Sea, he knows there cannot be two captains.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
On the ship.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
You make one mistake, and what is that?
Speaker 6 (07:48):
There is only one captain of the news look out
and where you are it's three of you?
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Sho what why you are?
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I tell you that shooting?
Speaker 5 (08:06):
He is my man, arranging matters so that we do
not have to big a crew. And my new boy,
you murdering devil?
Speaker 7 (08:15):

Speaker 3 (08:16):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (08:17):

And nah, as I go up and breach and take
my new boat where.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
I want to take her, I got import than business.
Speaker 7 (08:32):
Are the ass my friends steady, sir John, and Captain
Nielsen's dead. Oh his shooting. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Were at the mercy of this devil? Marvel for the present?
When I find out a few.
Speaker 7 (08:46):
Fingers, what is there to find out? This beat is
nothing but a pirate.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
I think this is more than piracy. This Captain Joe
looks cunning. He knows a pirate on the high seas
these days wouldn't have a chance, no, Margot. He wanted
this ship for something else to carry, perhaps a strange cargo.
And when I find out what it is, Captain Joe
and his fellow murdering devils will meet the shadow the monk, Yes,
(09:29):
a very small one. I don't imagine it's even on
the chart.
Speaker 7 (09:33):
The monk.

had into the launch. If we're to go to the island,
we won't be alone. You come down with my friend's

to wave that gun.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
I can see it. My motto. I'll help you. Are sure.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
You stand silent here? You try a run one step
frecor he shut you down.
Speaker 6 (10:24):
All right, Compen, I'll have to talk fast.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
I'm going to leave you now what are you going

what that cat sadistict devil is up to.

What you sp don't worry.
Speaker 5 (11:35):
I don't kill you yet, my porties sory, I don't
kill you yet.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
In a moment, the curtain rises on the second part
of the Shadows Thrilling Adventure. But first, here are some
important facts of interest.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
To all householders.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
If you want dependable even heat during the coming winter,
burn anthracite, and when ordering, be sure to insist on
blue coal, the finest anthracite that money can buy. Blue
coal is mined from Pennsylvania's richest hard coal deposits, but
the glen Alden Coal Company. Each carload is carefully sized, prepared,
(12:25):
then submitted to a thorough laboratory test.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
Only that coal which meets a.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Designated high standard of quality is okayed by the inspectors.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
It is then.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
Trademarked a harmless blue for your protection and shipped on
to blue coal dealers.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
The blue color on blue coal.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Ensures the fact that a buyer is getting America's finest anthracite.
Furnaces in this part of the country were designed to
burn anthracite, so don't gamble with substitute fuels. Insist upon
blue coal. It is prepared in four home sizes to
meet the particular need of every type of home. Order
(13:05):
your supply of blue coal tomorrow. Your nearest dealer's name
is listed in the whare to bay it section of
your classified telephone directory under the words blue coal. At
the same time, ask him about the blue coal Automatic
heat regulator. It's a thermostat which controls dampers automatically and
eliminates constant furnace attention The blue coal heat regulator costs
(13:30):
for eighteen dollars and ninety five cents plus a nominal
installation charge, and it will pay for itself in time
and fuel saving.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Senorita Lane, what epiden your che for you to come
out a here?
Speaker 6 (13:55):
She is?
Speaker 5 (13:55):
Hepithan Joe, good warning.

Speaker 8 (14:06):
My friends?
Speaker 5 (14:07):

Speaker 6 (14:11):
We look for that mister Cranston all over the island.
Speaker 7 (14:15):
We look and you didn't find it.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
No, we didn't find What do you want with me?
Speaker 5 (14:21):
Well?
Speaker 6 (14:22):
I just think maybe if I start kill you, maybe
mister Cranston come back.
Speaker 5 (14:29):
That's smart. No, so as soon as they done, I'd
be back for you, all right? Rico? What their bad? Juag?
Speaker 9 (14:46):

Speaker 7 (15:06):
And they are pirates.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Oh no, Margo, not at all. Someone built and furnished
this place for them, cutthroats living in luxury on an
island in the middle of the Caribbean Sea. What possible
significance has this place that someone should outfit and house
these men here.
Speaker 7 (15:20):
To find what's backable?
Speaker 9 (15:22):
No, I haven't, And yet my.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Hunt is stronger than ever that it's something big, Margo.
Speaker 9 (15:29):
You've got to help me.
Speaker 7 (15:30):
Anything you say.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
When the captain comes for you at dawn, get him
to talk about this place, why he's here, what it's
all about. If you can get him boasting, I might
get a clue to work on These men live in
luxury here?
Speaker 9 (15:42):

Speaker 7 (23:59):
Let get out of here.
Speaker 9 (24:00):
No, the captain is taking us out of here. Now
listen to me closely. Captain, you would take miss Lane.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
By the arm, miss Lane, take her out of here,
up the stairs and down.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
To the pier.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
Out of here and down to the pier.
Speaker 1 (24:15):
Put her on board the launch, and you will order
one of the John sailors to take her out to
the yacht.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
You will do exactly as I say, take her.
Speaker 8 (24:23):
Out to the yacht to exactly as you say.
Speaker 1 (24:29):
But you, the shadow still has work.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
To do.
Speaker 5 (24:47):
Thanis miss Lane. How long are we gonna keep circling
the island. Let's get out of it, lady.
Speaker 7 (24:50):
We've got to wait to mister Crant.
Speaker 6 (24:52):
With those devils back, there will be coming out after us.
Speaker 8 (24:54):
There was a miracle getting this far, that crazy captain
Joe putting on.
Speaker 5 (24:57):
The wall, gis I tell you take us back. Shoot
a star like that to the rest. Let's hurt off
the place.
Speaker 9 (25:03):
Let him do as he wants more.
Speaker 7 (25:06):
What you say you can head out to see?
Speaker 5 (25:08):
Now, okay, here we go.
Speaker 7 (25:18):
The month? You're letting Captain Joe all of.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Them get away.
Speaker 9 (25:20):
I've given them a chance to get away. I doubt
if they'll take it.
Speaker 5 (25:23):
What do you mean?
Speaker 9 (25:24):
What time is?
Speaker 2 (25:25):
Said?
Speaker 9 (25:25):
Boggle?
Speaker 2 (25:25):
My watch is stopped.
Speaker 7 (25:26):
Went from swimming hair Thomas five? What's going to happen
in the month?
Speaker 9 (25:30):
I left the captain under hypnosis.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
The last thing I told him was to Warner's men
to leave the island within five minutes. Apparently they think
he's drunk or crazy.
Speaker 9 (25:38):
They're all down on the pier. They haven't left it.
Speaker 7 (25:41):
Why why should they go twelve seconds to go the month?
Speaker 3 (25:44):
What is it?
Speaker 7 (25:44):
Why should they go.
Speaker 9 (25:45):
Ten more seconds?
Speaker 1 (25:47):
Follow?
Speaker 9 (25:48):
Tell Grady to hold tight to the wheel and open
the engine a pull bit? What don't ask questions?
Speaker 4 (25:51):
Kevin Grady, hold tied to the wheel and open the
engine up fury, ma'am?
Speaker 9 (26:01):
One more second?
Speaker 4 (26:03):
What is it?
Speaker 5 (26:20):
Pete? All up there? The Christman? Where'd it come from?
Speaker 3 (26:23):
What happened?
Speaker 5 (26:24):
I just climbed in the boat.
Speaker 1 (26:25):
I fused one of their bombs before I.
Speaker 7 (26:28):
Left the island, everything on the island out.
Speaker 9 (26:30):
I gave them that chance, Mago. They didn't take it
better that way.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
The world can well afford to lose men who for
money or jeopardize the peace of America, the peace of
the world. They died the way they were willing others
should die. Their greed, their treachery to men kind might
have killed and made in some citizens, crippled industries, laid.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Waste, rat cities.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Sometimes when there isn't justice in life, there is justice intent.
Speaker 4 (27:11):
And here's Blue coal heating expert John Bartley with some
helpful hints for every homeowner.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
Thank you, Ken Roberts, and good evening friends. There have
been many unseasonably warm days during the last two weeks.
Many householders allowed the fire and their heating plant to
go out during this period and will now find it
necessary to start a new fire. This is a simple
task if you will follow these few suggestions. First, leave
a thin layer of ash about two inches deep, spread
(27:39):
evenly over the grates. Close the check damper and open
the ash pit damper. Remember that the turn damper and
the smoke pipe should be open wide next, spread a
two inch layer of coal over.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
The layer of ash.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
On top of this placed the kindling. This kindling may
consist of lightly wadded newspapers, light dry wood, or char.
Light the kindling. When it is burning bristfrey add another
thin layer of coal a little at a time. The
kinding will not only ignite this coal, but the layer underneath.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
It as well.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
By adding more coal gradually, you can build up a
good deep fire bed in a short time. If smoke
from the kinding escapes into the cellar, ignite a loosely
wadded piece of paper, lift the check damper and insert
it into the smoke pipe. This will heat the chimney
and aid in carrying away the smoke from the kindling.
Do not forget to place the dampers back to their
(28:32):
correct position when the fire is built to its proper depth.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
I thank you.
Speaker 4 (28:42):

Speaker 4 (03:52):
Throat as I was saying, Lamont, these long sea voyages
(04:13):
are boring, definitely positively bory. I'm afraid I can't agree
with you, sir, John, my dear boor are you pulling
my leg again? First you tell me you possess powers
of hypnosis, and now the subject is ocean voyagers and
you tell me they're not boring. So I can't seem
to agree with you about anything.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
I don't mean to be stubborn, sir, but I can't
help feeling that there's a certain excitement about the water,
my dear boy. Pacts are facts.
Speaker 4 (04:38):
I've owned this shop for three years, sailed around the world,
an outside of a few beastly storms, I might as
well be riding on top of a London bus in Piccadilly.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
Second, where said John, I repeat, I don't agree with you.
Take this part of the Caribbean Sea we're vacationing in now.
Years ago these waters were the happy hunting ground of
Captain Kidd and Morgan and.
Speaker 5 (04:59):
Many other pirate So what about pirates? Hello Margot, good morning.
Speaker 9 (05:03):
This lady.
Speaker 7 (05:04):
Good morning, sir John.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
If you and the mad were talking about pirates, I
want to hear every bit of it.
Speaker 7 (05:08):
Perhaps you don't know if pirates are my favorite.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
Teaboard Well, look over there to start it, the moth.
Speaker 7 (05:13):
What is it?

Fire a ship on fire's Scott, let's smoke.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
You must to be a blaze from stendercer.
Speaker 1 (05:22):
Our Captain Sena. Sure there isn't any more excitement left
at see.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Ain't a John? I say?
Speaker 1 (05:34):
You know, Sir John, I've got a hunch that during
these next few hours, as we Americans say, you're going
to eat those words.
Speaker 7 (05:55):
The march, shall we go down and watch and take
out of the cow board.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Oh my, you want to watch the ship go under?
Speaker 7 (06:02):
Oh it's horrible, isn't it? As if something living? We're done? Yes,
what is the matter?
Speaker 1 (06:09):
I am wondering why that ship is sinking so quickly? Oh?
Speaker 7 (06:12):
Thet you've got the most suspicious mind.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Here comes to John. He's bringing one of the survivors
up here.
Speaker 7 (06:18):
Isn't he the strangest of men with us? Saw so fat?
Speaker 1 (06:22):
And you do you means so quickly?
Speaker 4 (06:23):
There you are amount well everyone who was on board
that you have fifteen men.
Speaker 5 (06:27):
He is safe in the accounted boar. Isn't that right?
Captain sees?
Speaker 6 (06:30):
And you're we are more scretful.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
Oh yes, of course I have made the introduction, have
i miss lane?
Speaker 5 (06:36):
Mister Carnton? This is captain Captain.
Speaker 8 (06:39):
My name is most difficult. They just call me Captain Joe.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
Captain Joe.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
And speaking of captains, here comes our own captain, well,
Captain Neilsen.
Speaker 5 (06:50):
Everything all right, yes, sir John, but.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
We are having a little difficulty with the rescued men.
Speaker 8 (06:55):
They apparently don't speak English, and the refuse.
Speaker 5 (06:58):
To go below deck with the result.
Speaker 7 (07:00):
Look, it's thinking, Jehorne the final plan.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
There she goes, well, Captain Joe, your ship is gone.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
That is not right.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
What do you mean said?
Speaker 5 (07:14):
He just went me? But I got a new ship.
Speaker 8 (07:18):
Oh maybe I forgot to tell you what that is?
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Too bad?
Speaker 6 (07:23):
Well I tell you now, Sano Sanorita.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
He is my new ship. What are you talking about?
Speaker 7 (07:30):
What did you hear what he's saying?
Speaker 1 (07:32):
Yes, I heard, but I think it's up to Captain
Nielsen to handle this.
Speaker 5 (07:36):
Thank you, mister Granston.
Speaker 8 (07:37):
But I'm sure this gentleman is having a joke.
Speaker 5 (07:40):
After all, as a man of the.
Speaker 8 (07:41):
Sea, he knows there cannot be two captains.
Speaker 5 (07:44):
On the ship.
Speaker 2 (07:44):
You make one mistake, and what is that?
Speaker 6 (07:48):
There is only one captain of the news look out
and where you are it's three of you?
Speaker 5 (08:00):
Sho what why you are?
Speaker 1 (08:02):
I tell you that shooting?
Speaker 5 (08:06):
He is my man, arranging matters so that we do
not have to big a crew. And my new boy,
you murdering devil?
Speaker 7 (08:15):
Who's the job?
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Yes?
Speaker 5 (08:17):
So nah, he is dead, So maybe nobody talks so much.
And nah, as I go up and breach and take
my new boat where.
Speaker 6 (08:27):
I want to take her, I got import than business.
Speaker 7 (08:32):
Are the ass my friends steady, sir John, and Captain
Nielsen's dead. Oh his shooting. It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Were at the mercy of this devil? Marvel for the present?
When I find out a few.
Speaker 7 (08:46):
Fingers, what is there to find out? This beat is
nothing but a pirate.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
I think this is more than piracy. This Captain Joe
looks cunning. He knows a pirate on the high seas
these days wouldn't have a chance, no, Margot. He wanted
this ship for something else to carry, perhaps a strange cargo.
And when I find out what it is, Captain Joe
and his fellow murdering devils will meet the shadow the monk, Yes,
(09:29):
a very small one. I don't imagine it's even on
the chart.
Speaker 7 (09:33):
The monk.
Speaker 1 (09:36):
Look over the side and loading everything valuable this ship
had into the launch. If we're to go to the island,
we won't be alone. You come down with my friend's
quick We are waiting for you, and may I ask
where we're going?
Speaker 6 (09:48):

to come? Will you go ashart to my island?
Speaker 5 (09:53):
Here I am the captain, There I am king. Here
we are at my island. Come on, get out of
the pot. You talk loud, all right. You don't have
to wave that gun.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
I can see it. My motto. I'll help you. Are sure.
Speaker 5 (10:19):
You stand silent here? You try a run one step
frecor he shut you down.
Speaker 6 (10:24):
All right, Compen, I'll have to talk fast.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
I'm going to leave you now what are you going
to do. I'm going into the shadows and find out
what that cat sadistict devil is up to.
Speaker 5 (10:40):
Be careful, you go where is he?
Speaker 7 (10:43):
I don't know?
Speaker 5 (10:43):
Well he go? You tell me where he goes?

I feel you have let them feed you?
Speaker 7 (10:55):
No, don't you please that.

I don't know where you.
Speaker 5 (11:00):
My name?
Speaker 6 (11:00):
I'm over this way, this way for Cranston. So you
run away. When I turned my head, you head behind rocks.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
You think I chase you aad this way this way?
No me, I don't chase you Cranston. No, me and
my crew.
Speaker 6 (11:23):
We have good time forties Soon, aren't you done?
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Like a wild peak?
Speaker 3 (11:29):
What you sp don't worry.
Speaker 5 (11:35):
I don't kill you yet, my porties sory, I don't
kill you yet.
Speaker 4 (11:55):
In a moment, the curtain rises on the second part
of the Shadows Thrilling Adventure. But first, here are some
important facts of interest.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
To all householders.
Speaker 4 (12:03):
If you want dependable even heat during the coming winter,
burn anthracite, and when ordering, be sure to insist on
blue coal, the finest anthracite that money can buy. Blue
coal is mined from Pennsylvania's richest hard coal deposits, but
the glen Alden Coal Company. Each carload is carefully sized, prepared,
(12:25):
then submitted to a thorough laboratory test.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
Only that coal which meets a.
Speaker 4 (12:31):
Designated high standard of quality is okayed by the inspectors.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
It is then.
Speaker 4 (12:36):
Trademarked a harmless blue for your protection and shipped on
to blue coal dealers.
Speaker 5 (12:42):
The blue color on blue coal.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Ensures the fact that a buyer is getting America's finest anthracite.
Furnaces in this part of the country were designed to
burn anthracite, so don't gamble with substitute fuels. Insist upon
blue coal. It is prepared in four home sizes to
meet the particular need of every type of home. Order
(13:05):
your supply of blue coal tomorrow. Your nearest dealer's name
is listed in the whare to bay it section of
your classified telephone directory under the words blue coal. At
the same time, ask him about the blue coal Automatic
heat regulator. It's a thermostat which controls dampers automatically and
eliminates constant furnace attention The blue coal heat regulator costs
(13:30):
for eighteen dollars and ninety five cents plus a nominal
installation charge, and it will pay for itself in time
and fuel saving.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Senorita Lane, what epiden your che for you to come
out a here?
Speaker 6 (13:55):
She is?
Speaker 5 (13:55):
Hepithan Joe, good warning.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
Lantern light your eyes?
Speaker 1 (14:02):
Ay?
Speaker 5 (14:02):
Oh she's very dark in your nude lass? Underground there?
Speaker 8 (14:06):
My friends?
Speaker 5 (14:07):
What they what do you want through the night?
Speaker 6 (14:11):
We look for that mister Cranston all over the island.
Speaker 7 (14:15):
We look and you didn't find it.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
No, we didn't find What do you want with me?
Speaker 5 (14:21):
Well?
Speaker 6 (14:22):
I just think maybe if I start kill you, maybe
mister Cranston come back.
Speaker 5 (14:29):
That's smart. No, so as soon as they done, I'd
be back for you, all right? Rico? What their bad? Juag?
Speaker 9 (14:46):
Muggle?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
It's been pretty bad, hasn't it? Only since the captain
told you that you were going to be a decoy
to catch me. Aliston, male hunt was right?
Speaker 9 (14:55):
What have I told you that?
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Captain? Jonas cut Roots live like kings.
Speaker 8 (14:59):
I don't like kings.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
I tell you their living quarters, every conceivable luxury, electricity, plumbing, furniture, rugs, everything,
the finest.
Speaker 7 (15:06):
And they are pirates.
Speaker 1 (15:07):
Oh no, Margo, not at all. Someone built and furnished
this place for them, cutthroats living in luxury on an
island in the middle of the Caribbean Sea. What possible
significance has this place that someone should outfit and house
these men here.
Speaker 7 (15:20):
To find what's backable?
Speaker 9 (15:22):
No, I haven't, And yet my.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Hunt is stronger than ever that it's something big, Margo.
Speaker 9 (15:29):
You've got to help me.
Speaker 7 (15:30):
Anything you say.
Speaker 1 (15:31):
When the captain comes for you at dawn, get him
to talk about this place, why he's here, what it's
all about. If you can get him boasting, I might
get a clue to work on These men live in
luxury here?
Speaker 9 (15:42):
Who put them here?
Speaker 1 (15:43):
And why?
Speaker 9 (15:44):
Margo.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
The shadow has got to find out. Calm it is
it done?
Speaker 8 (16:02):
And I come for you myself, and come.
Speaker 7 (16:07):
I'll go with your captain, Joe.

No, you're just a cheap pirate, perfectly obvious.
Speaker 7 (17:01):
Oh I suppose you'll tell me that you've got big
plans and schemes and all the rest of it.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
But I repeat again, I don't think you've got a
brain in your head to think up any plans.
Speaker 5 (17:08):

Speaker 9 (25:30):

Speaker 1 (25:32):
The last thing I told him was to Warner's men
to leave the island within five minutes. Apparently they think
he's drunk or crazy.
Speaker 9 (25:38):
They're all down on the pier. They haven't left it.
Speaker 7 (25:41):
Why why should they go twelve seconds to go the month?
Speaker 3 (25:44):

Speaker 7 (25:44):
Why should they go.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
I fused one of their bombs before I.
Speaker 7 (26:28):
Left the island, everything on the island out.
Speaker 9 (26:30):
I gave them that chance, Mago. They didn't take it
better that way.
Speaker 1 (26:35):
The world can well afford to lose men who for
money or jeopardize the peace of America, the peace of
the world. They died the way they were willing others
should die. Their greed, their treachery to men kind might
have killed and made in some citizens, crippled industries, laid.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
Waste, rat cities.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Sometimes when there isn't justice in life, there is justice intent.

And here's Blue coal heating expert John Bartley with some
helpful hints for every homeowner.
Speaker 3 (27:17):
Thank you, Ken Roberts, and good evening friends. There have
been many unseasonably warm days during the last two weeks.
Many householders allowed the fire and their heating plant to
go out during this period and will now find it
necessary to start a new fire. This is a simple
task if you will follow these few suggestions. First, leave
a thin layer of ash about two inches deep, spread
(27:39):
evenly over the grates. Close the check damper and open
the ash pit damper. Remember that the turn damper and
the smoke pipe should be open wide next, spread a
two inch layer of coal over.
Speaker 5 (27:51):
The layer of ash.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
On top of this placed the kindling. This kindling may
consist of lightly wadded newspapers, light dry wood, or char.
Light the kindling. When it is burning bristfrey add another
thin layer of coal a little at a time. The
kinding will not only ignite this coal, but the layer underneath.
Speaker 5 (28:10):
It as well.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
By adding more coal gradually, you can build up a
good deep fire bed in a short time. If smoke
from the kinding escapes into the cellar, ignite a loosely
wadded piece of paper, lift the check damper and insert
it into the smoke pipe. This will heat the chimney
and aid in carrying away the smoke from the kindling.
Do not forget to place the dampers back to their
(28:32):
correct position when the fire is built to its proper depth.
Speaker 1 (28:36):
I thank you.
Speaker 4 (28:42):

The weed of crime bears bitter fruit crime does not
pay the shadow nose.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
Next week, same time, same stations, Blue Coal, America's finest anthracite,
will again present another thrilling adventure of the shadow. Be
sure to listen, and be sure to burn blue coal,
the solid fuel for solid comfort.
