If he could get Boris out at that window, he might be able to get her down to the ground With the help of the trellis. But from *hat room did the window open, and how much of the upper hall would they have to traverse before reaching It? Not much, he fancied. Again he looked around, and Wakened.

He closed the window, drew the shade, and became conscious that she held his hand and was drawing him urgently toward the fire. At the same time she answered his unasked question. “They’re all down in the kitchen, I think. Listen I" She opened the door leading to the hall, and, going out, leaned over the stair-rail. “Yes. they’re still there,” she reported when she came back. “All but one of the Italians. They’re eating now, und after that I think they're planning to leave.” “Where's the hag?” “Waiting on them.” She spoke detachedly, almost dully. As in the morning, she was not surprised ; but tonight there was in her manner a suggestion of repressed excitement which it had not held before. "Have you a heavy coat?” he asked her.

That is what sport followers say of these eventful weeks which bring news of Wills and Lenglen, Ruth and Cobb, Sweetser and Jones and other stars of links, courts and diamond. The Harvard-Yale Boat Race, the swimming of the English Channel, the Wimbledon Tennis matches, the National Golf Open at Columbus, the motor races at Indianapolis are events requiring skillful reporting by trained specialists. Foremost among UNITED PRESS sport authorities is Henry FarrelLwhose daily signed story is a big feature in this newspaper and in hundreds of other representative American newspapers throughout the country. At Epsom Downs, at Wimbledon, at Muirfield, at Madison Square Garden, at New London, at Princeton, at Poughkeepsie — wherever players meet or horses run —wherever athletes strive for supremacy, UNITED PRESS sports writers act as eyes and ears for you and other newspaper readers. Not every newspaper has the privilege of printing UNITED FRESS news. Lock for the line “BY UNITKD PRESS" in your newspaper every day. It is a “trade-mark” which identifies the service of one of the greatest news-gathering organizations in the world today. Decatur Daily Democrat • • * • * ■
