CHAPTER XXX As Kay passed the docks she looked guardedly toward the yacht. One of the sailors, on the deck, i waved to her. She waved back, i Then she saw the car, the big, fa--1 miliar “Pierce, parked beside the , dock. That meant that Ida Campbell was aboard or was out some- | where with Harrow. Kay was surprised to find that there was in her even the slightest trace of resentment, or envy—for it couldn’t, she told herself, be such a thing as jealousy. She was surprised, but she was frank and she admitted that, whatever it was, it was there. Well, Ida Campbell belonged there. She belonged in Harrow’s life! she was his sort of woman, smart, sleek, modern, very sure of herself, and she had a bit of a past, a background of wealthy marriage, fast, sophisticated company, and World travel. Smiehow, thinking about Ida Campbell’s natural place in Harrow’s life, Kay could not help wondering how she had figured in it at all. She wasn’t really the sort. I Harrow had said so, but that had j been mere talk. The yacht, which was now just behind her and only a few hundred feet away, was, in a more subtle sense, miles from her. She found it hard to imagine now ! that she had danced on it, fished on i it, worked, played and lived on it. I It was even more remote than the grammar school she had attended and not long ago had happened to visit, smiling at the tiny desks, the stuffy little rooms and the blacki boards set low for the short reach of childish arms. ’ 1 By the time Kay had returned home, she began to see that her problem was doing what she had , j hoped it would do: it was begin- , ning to solve itself. There was no job to be had at the time in Daytona Beach, there was this vast breach between her world and Harrow’s, and there was the devotion and insistence of Pete close at hand, his contagious recklessness, ardor and enthusiasm. She felt at this second of consideration that aboard the train to New Orleans she would not be sorry. It was as clear as if she were sitting there now, watching the lights of Florida towns drop behind, and chatting with Pete of their plans for the future. Os course, she could not deceive herself into believing that she was madly in love with Pete, but wasn’t this ; enough,? How often, she wondered, did people actually marry feeling a really great love? Was there such a thing, outside a novel? j She wondered when Pete would call, and tried to form in her mind the sentences she would speak to him, calmly, the deliberate questions she would ask, with the pasi sionate hope that neither of them ' would regret any promise or decision they made. It was dinner-time, then eight o’clock, and still Pete had not appeared. Kay began to worry and wonder if she shouldn’t go look for him at his ! house. She went upstairs to change and I was just snapping on the light in her bedroom when she heard a sharp, quick sound that checked her hand on its way to the button. It was a shot. And nearby. No mistake. Kay turned and ran downstairs. The cook stood in the doorway between the dining room and the kitchen, staring at her in fright. “Did you hear that?” Kay demanded. “Yes, Trw’m!" “Where did it come from? “It sounded like out in front, the cook managed to stammer. Kay went to the desk in the library and took out the old rusty revolver Bud had kept there. It looked ancient and ugly, but the gray leaden noses of bullets looked out menacingly from the chambers in the cylinder. Kay took the gun in her hand, got a flashlight and went carefully to the front hall which was dark. She peered out into the yard and saw nothing moving. For several minutes she stood and watched, listening. Then she opened the door quietly and stole out. Without using the flashlight, she tiptoed over i the lawn, looking behind shrubs, stopping every few steps to listen. She circled the house carefully, but found nothing, then, growing bolder and getting; * better hold on her nerves, she walked quietly down the drive toward the front entrance. I She went as far as the sidewalk without seeing anything to arouse i her suspicion, and started back to--1

| their ChrUtmas gifts. ■; Prize® for high scores woro won i by Miss Patsy Fullenkamp, Mrs. i Harold Smith, Mrs. Arthur Voglewede un i Miss Agnes Baker. During the evening sevenil musical uel-' notions were dedicated to the sor-i , orlty. ■ The 'members of fie Iota) chapter i ' were the Misses Florence Holl- ; house, Mary Margaret Vogiewede, j I Flothllda Harr!®, Irene llolthouse, I Katheryn Hyland, Jeanette Clark, -.'.gm® Baker, Mildred Niblick, Patsy Fullenkamp, Uatheryn Frit- ’ zinger, the Mesdames Al Schneider I Harold Smith, Arthur Vogl'-wede. i ami the hostesses. CHRISTMAS PROGRAM GIVEN AT CLUB MEETING ■ I Tie Research Club met Monday afternoon at the home of Mrs. 11.| It. Carson, who was also the pro-; gram leader for the meeting. The j Christman story was mid from the 1 'Bible by Mrs. Leo Saylors after j which the song, “Silent Night," was sung, with Mrs. Fred Smith furnish-! Ing the accompaniment. Mi®. Carson told about “Christ-' mas Customs” a paper which was written by Stella G. MeGeahe. Mrs. | ('ar®on mentioned many interesting things übout the observance of Christmas and how and where var-

ward the house, wondering if her > nerves had gotten into such a condition that she had mistaken the ( backfiring of an automobile fur a pistol shot. Unworried now, she snapped on > the flashlight, and ran its beam . casually over the front yard. And . then she gasped. Something dark and solid lay on the lawn near a t clump of bamboo that bordered the t winding automobile drive. Taking I a firm grip on the gun and snapping i off the flashlight, Kay ran softly . forward until she came to the ob- . ject. She had not been wrong; it was a body, a man’s body. She flashed the I light down on it and as the first . of the bright beam struck, she caught her breath and felt her ' knees grow weak as if they had suddenly turned to soft putty. The man was Pete. i "Pete, Pete!” She cried out his name and ! dropped on her knees beside him. . She reached out and touched his . shoulder, shook it gently. “Pete,” she said in the voice one uses for waking a sleeper. But there was no sound from the body; there was no movement about it; the shoulder was as lifeless as a dummy’s. Frantically, she threw Pete over • on his back and flashed the light , upon him again. What she saw made her gasp. The face was cov- ! ered with blood which seemed to I have streamed upon it from the , right side of his head. Kay thrust her hand inside his shirt and tried to find the suggestion of a heart beat, but in her tremulous excitement could not tell whether Pete was alive or dead. She drew out her hand and stared down at him, the horror and the cold fear growing rapidly within her chest, shutting off her breath, drying her throat and mouth and weighing down like lead upon her stomach. Even at that moment Harrow’s name and Harrow’s face flashed . into her consciousness and she gripped the revolver that she found was still in her righthand. She knew that if she saw Harrow before her she might begin to squeeze the trigger and not stop until the hammer clicked impotently upon exploded cartridges. Then reason returned to her and she realized that she still had not determined whether there was any life left in Pete's fallen body. By one of those strange quirks of memory that psychologists like to discuss, a plan came to her. Several years before she had seen at the theater on the peninsula a motion picture version of “White Shadows in the South Seas.” In the film, a young native boy was injured and appeared to be dead. The white doctor —how instantaneously, how ridiculously easily and vividly it all came back to her! —heid a shiny belt buckle to the boy’s lips and looked al. it, then worked furiously to save his life. The Polynesians thought of the buckle as a charm which had brought back the lad’s life, but to the doctor it had been a simple device to see if there was still a life to save; it had caught the faint mist from the youngster’s feeble lungs and had showed that breath was still in the body. Kay held the flashlight close to Pete’s lips, then looked at the disc of glass, afraid of what she might see. With relief as great as any she had ever known, she realized that the glass was fogged by a thin film of moisture. “Pete!” she cried eagerly, shaking his shoulders, “Pete!” But he remained limp and silent as a corpse. Kay seized Pete’s shoulders and dragged him toward the house. It was surprising to her how heavy a limp body could be. When finally she had him lying on the davenport in the living room, a towel under his head, she ran to the telephone. Her hand was trembling so that she dropped the receiver twice and it swung on the end of its cord, banging against the table. The cook stood in the doorway, huge-eyed, speechless, her sweaty hands . clamped tight together. Kay called two doctors before 1 she could find one in. And within a space of time that seemed hours but was really only a few minutes, she was standing anxiously above ; the bent shoulders of the young doci tor, watching every movement, pie i doctor’s presence calmed her im- . mediately. He was a vei? compe- : tent voung man, small, wiry, hght- ■ haired, with a deft, sure way of ■ going about his business, a manner

lons < tisiomw were originated. A 'number of t’hrlstmas legend® wore related. The eong. "The First Noel” was .sung by Hie group and Mrs. Carson (told u ChriatmaH story. The next meeting of the Club will ( Ims held January 7 with Mrs. Dun I Sprang and Mi®. Konnle Fristoe 1 will have the paper. Unit fifteen of the Catholic Attlon lUhiba will meet with Fred Stcigmeyer Thursday evening at < eventhirty o’clock. BRIDGE PARTY FOR BRIDE ELECT Miss lAilco AI weln entertained with a prettily oppointed party I Monday night at her home in honor of Mlsb Florence Magley, bride-elect | of December 27. j hmall tables woro arranged for bridge and Misa Magley received ! the first iprize and Mrs. Charles | Hite, second. Mis® Alwein preeent-’ ,ed the huna.-ed gue®t with a gift. A delicious luncheon was served.! I Miss Magley was 'presented with .beautiful crystal gobleta, a gift; i from the guests at the party.

• that was at once easy and frank, - yet entirely sincere, untouched by ! the brisk cocksureness of some i medical men. Finally the doctor turned to her, i smiling boyishly. i “He’s going to be all right, Kay," I he said. “Are you sure?” she demanded, i hoping desperately that he was not 1 merely trying to reassure her. ; “As sure as anybody could be : under the circumstances,” the doc- , tor said. “Yes, he just got a nasty bump on the head and had a couple ; of inches of scalp pretty well gouged . out. There’s a slight concussion and he’ll have to keep off his legs and take it pretty easy for a while, but 1 1 the wound itself doesn’t amount to much.” “Oh, thank you!” The doctor chuckled. “Don’t thank me; thank the bird that did the shooting. If I couldn’t do better than that I’d quit.” The doctor took out a cigaret, and lit it. “Sit down a minute,” he said gently. “We’ll have him moved to the hospital. Meanwhile there are a couple of things to get out of the way.” “Oh,” she said. She understood what he meant. “How did young Ryan here happen to get shot, Kay?” “I don’t know. 1 was just going upstairs to change clothes to go over and see him when I heard the shot. I hurried downstairs and the cook had heard it, too. At first, I thought, in away, it might be an automobile backfiring, but there have been some prowlers around here lately and I couldn’t imagine what it might be." Kay was wondering how much she ought to tell before she confronted Harrow. “Prowlers?” One of the doetpr’s sandy eyebrows rose. “Yes,” she said quickly. “You see, mother and Bud are up in the mountains and I’ve been here alone. I was worried, of course, so 1 got j Bud’s old revolver and a flashlight and went out and looked —and that's how I happened to find Pete. There didn’t seem to be a soul around.” “Must have given you a nasty scare?” “It wasn’t fun,” she said simply. The doctor patted her shoulder. “Great girl,” he said. Kay knew that this would be only the beginning of explanations. The town knew that Pete had gone to Guatemala, that he had been vaguely, at least, connected with her. Now, what would people say, what | would the police say, when they learned that Pete had been living quietly back in Daytona, and had turned up, shot in the head, on her front lawn. As she saw it, there was only one thing to do: to confront Harrow and demand an explanation if he would give one, to tell him that she ; considered she had no further loyalty to him, and then to tell the I chief of police the entire story, be- i ginning with the mysterious inci- | dent in the old fort at St. August ire ( when Harrow had seen someone following them. She rode over with the doctor and Pete in the ambulance and took care of registering Pete in the hospital. When finally assured that he would be well taken care of, she said, “Doctor, I wonder if you'd come with me to see the police? Somehow, I hate the idea of going alone.” The doctor said, “Os course, Kay.” He drove her in his little coupe to the police station. The chief listened politely to Kay’s story, nodding at each point and asking no questions until she was through. She said nothing, however, of tbe mystery concerning Earl Harrow; merely that there had been prowl ers near her house and that possibly Pete had come to call on her and had been mistaken for an officer or watchman. This ordeal was soon over, but when she left the station Kay was not sure that her story had found belief. The chief merely had said: “Very well, Miss Owen, 111 see ! that your house is watched. And I may want to see you again soon.” “All right,” she said, “thank ( you.” What she was thanking him for she didn’t know. As she left the ! station and looked back at its barred windows she could imagine herself . held there because of her part in whatever machinations involved Harrow, or for witholding that part . of her story. ’ (To Be Continued) ■ CoprrlrM. >934.
