"Jig time," Marc corrected automatically, drawing a soiled newspaper from his desk drawer. For a moment, he thumbed through the wrinkled sheets, and then folded it back at the classified section. His hand traced slowly down the print filled columns for a time, then quickly darted to the opposite page.
"There she is!" he yelled.
Toffee glanced suspiciously about the room. "Where?" she demanded.
"Here!" As Marc held out the newspaper, his finger indicated an advertisement in the entertainment section.
"The Loma Club," it read, "Where you can lose a weekend and never miss it." Under that curious legend was the picture of an over-lush blonde young lady, whose name, according to the ad, was Ruby Marlow. The picture had apparently been taken during one of her performances at the club, for her mouth was wide open. Toffee gazed at the picture critically.
"That's just the way she looked on the street," Marc said.
"I don't think you were hit by a car, after all," Toffee said sourly. "A face like that would stop anything."
"Well, at least we know where to start," Marc said enthusiastically. "We're going to the Loma Club. A detective would take too long."
"Night clubbing?" Toffee asked happily. "Wait till I find me a club. I remember the last time. It was heavenly."
"This isn't going to be like the last time," Marc said sternly. "If you start another riot, I'll break your neck with my own bare hands."
