Mrs. Parsons lunches with Mitchell and he tells her he has Investigated Jordan’s past and that the young man Is a gambler. She does not pass this news on to Celia Next dav Celia. Lisi and Jordan attend the races and Celia s rye Is attracted bv a familiar figure. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN THE young man’s back was certainly familiar. It was the way he ca'rried his broad shoulders which first caught Celia’s attention. Her heart seemed to stop beating. She leaned forward, craning her neck to see more clearly. He did not turn around. There was something about that gray tweed back that brought a quick rush of memories. If only he would turn his head! But no—of course, she must be mistaken. It was just some stranger who held his shoulders in the same alert way as Barney Shields. “Look, Celia, look—there’s that cute jockey! The one in red. See him?’’ Lisi Duncan had grabbed Celia’s arm and was pointing out a boyish youth in scarlet satin, boots and broad-visored cap who, with other jockeys, was crossing in front of the stands. “Isn’t he adorable?” Lisi chirped. “Why, Celia, you weren’t looking at all!’’ “Yes, I was, Lisi. I saw him.” It would be several minutes before there would be another race. The crowd all about them had begun moving. Tod Jordan, handsome in white linen suit and orange tie which set off his dark good looks, turned toward the two girls. “Want to take a look at the horses?” he said. “I think I’ll go down to the paddock and see if I can pick up a tip.” “I don’t want tips,” said Lisi glibly. “I’ve already picked my horse. It’s the one that cute jockey in red is going to ride. “See, here’s his name! And the horse is ‘Family Row.’ There’s a hunch for you. That hqfse ought to win me money!” Celia shook her head. “You go on, Tod,” she said. “We’ll wait for you.” “See you later!” Jordan disappeared in the milling crowd. Lisi was turning and twisting, trying to take in everything around her. “If there isn’t Jimmie Webster. Over there—see? And, my Lord, it’s Kate with him! Well, of all things!” Celia followed Lisi’s excited gesturing to the seats a few rows above where Webster and Kate Duncan were sitting. Lisi whirled about quickly. “Don’t look!” she insisted. “Don’t even let them know we saw them. Kate’ll be sure to tattle.” a a a THE young man in gray down in front, had turned. Celia caught a quick glimpse of sunburned cheek, eyes squinting against the sunshine —beyond a doubt Barney Shields! “Listen, Celia, let’s move over to the other side where Kate can’t see us.” Lisi had taken the other girl's arm. “Oh. but we can’t now. How’d we find Tod?” She had to make excuses quickly, keeping one eye on Barney. Celia's heart was pounding. Suppose Barney should leave before she could get to him. Lisi was silent for a few moments. Then she said: “I’ll tell you. You stay and wait for Tod and I’ll go across and find some seats for all of us. When he comes back you two come over. Even if Kate does see you it’s all right. “Oh, boy—l’d like to put something over on that old girl. The way she treated me last night!” Celia agreed. She was only too eager to be alone. When Lisi was out of sight she rose and walked down the aisle of steps. Barney had turned again and was facing the track.

• She was just behind him now. Celia tried to appear casual, but j her cheeks were hot. She felt as j though the eyes of every one in the ! huge gathering were turned upon her. Shyly she touched his arm. “Hello, Barney,” the girl said. “Why—hello! Say, this is a surprise!” Barney Shields whipped off his straw hat. His face was one ruddy, delighted grin. He grabbed her hand, crushed it in his own. “Is it really you, Celia? I can hardly believe it!” i “It's me, all right,” she told him, smiling. “I saw you from where I was sitting. At first I wasn’t sure, but then you turned around. Barney, I’m awfully glad to see you.” “Never so glad to see anybody in my life!” the young man said emphatically. He still was holding her hand. “But how did you happen to be ” she began. “Oh, it’s a long story? I’ll tell you all about it, kid. Right now all I can do is think how sweet you’re looking \* Say, you look like a million dollars, Celia,!” “Do you really think so?” she asked softly. “I’ll say I do!” “But you didn’t answer my letters.” “Letters? I only got one. Did you send any more? That's part of all I've got to tell you. Just wait until you hear? I’ve had some good luck, Celia!” “You look as though you had. Still, I don’t see why you couldn’t write to me. You said you would, Barney.” “Yes, I know. Bid you won’t care about that after you hear what’s happened.” Men and women around them had begun returning to their seats. It was nearly time for the next race. Celia nottced that Barney had a camera at his side. “Oh—are you making pictures?” she asked. “Yes, worse luck! I’ll have to be moving in a minute. Listen, when am I going to have a chance to talk to you? I’ve got a lot of things I want to tell you, Celia. What are you doing tonight?” “I couldn't see you tonight,” she said. “Oh, dear, let’s see ” “Can I call at your father’s house?” a a a THE girl shook her head. “I’m not staying there any more,” she said. “I’m living out on Long island with a friend of father’s. Mrs. Parsons, her name is. You'd better let me telephone you. Where can I reach you?” “Apex Pictures Service.” He gave her the exchange number. “Barney! You mean your’s working there! In New York?” “Sure!” he said exultantly. “That's part of what I’ve got to tell you.” Celia stood in the aisle, halfturned. She glanced up and saw Tod Jordan moving toward the place where she and Lisi had been sitting. A wave of apprehension passed over the girl. Barney must not see Tod. She had been so excited at finding him here she had forgotten about Jordan. “Say,” the young man beside her drawled, “you're not alone here, are you?” “No. I guess I’d better be getting back to ray friends. You have to go anyhow now, don’t you? What’s the best time to call, Barney?” “About the same, I guess. All times equally bad. But they’re careful about taking messages in the office. If I'm not there, leave word. I'll get it all right.” “I'll telephone in the morning. Oh, I'm so glad to have seen you!” “Believe me, I am, too. Well, so long!” Celia gave him a quick smile and then mounted tlie steps. Her heart was singing. All the bitter thoughts that had come when Barney failed to write were banished. There must be an explanation. Anyhow, he certainly had seemed glad to, see her. Sight of Shields had resurrected memories of home. “Oh, there you are! Wondered what had become of you. Where's Lisi?” Jordan greeted her. “She’s over on the other side. Saw her sister up above and didn’t want to be seen. Lisi's saving seats for us. Shall we go?” “It’s more comfortable here than it will be over there.” “But she’s waiting for us, Tod.” “Oh, all right.” It was a struggle making their way through the crowded aisles. Cciia caught sight of Lisi’s blue handkerchief waving at them. Mahfully she was guarding a seat on

either side of her. At last Celia and Jordan reached her. “I’m playing ‘Family Row’ straight,” Lisi told them gaily. “Did you get any tips, Tod?” “Yes. A couple. Highest odds in the race are on your horse. Did you notice that?” “I don’t care. After seeing Kate here I know ‘Family Row’s’ going to win!” a a a JORDAN laughed. Invariably he found Lisi Duncan amusing. Os course she wasn’t the sort of girl he personally admired, but he liked to hear her talk. The horses were appearing on the track. A few minutes more and everything was forgotten except the race. Celia with the others was on her feet, waving and cheering frantically as the flying line shot around the last curve. Nearer and nearer! Through clouds of dust one straining animal passed another. Deafening roars filled the air. Nearer and nearer! Suddenly pandemonium broke loose. The black horse had defeated the favorite. Lisi was jumping up and down, squealing happily. “But it wasn’t the horse you bet on,” Celia reminded her. “No, but what a race! My dear, I haven’t been so thrilled for days!” Jordan was chuckling. “Weil, my tip was good!” he declared. “Ought to pay pretty well, too.” Celia had begun to wonder what Barney Shields had to tell her. It was going to be a problem to meet Barney. For some curious reason she did not want to confide in Mrs. Parsons. It probably was because Evelyn frequently had so praised Tod Jordan. Celia had not yet thought through the complications that were to arise with Barney’s arrival. They stayed for two more races, but neither proved to be as exciting as the last. Jordan was in excellent spirits when he came away from cashing his winnings. Lisi opened her purse and held up a single dollar bill. “They all got wings!! she murmured mournfully. On the drive back to Larchwood Celia was quiet. The other girl’s chatter kept this from being noticed. When they arrived Lisi changed into her own clothes and departed. Jordan remained to dine with Evelyn and Celia. They spent the evening on the veranda just as they had often before. Celia was aware of a feeling of restraint when she was alone with Jordan, but she let him kiss her good night. “I think I’ll go to bed at once,” she told Evelyn after he had gone. “Feeling sleepy.” “Then you’d better go along. Good night.” Celia went to her room. She undressed, turned out the light and got into bed, but she could not sleep. An hour later Celia had reached a decision. (To Be Continued.)

Oct. 24.—When the Ohio State Bar Association, announced names of those who successfully had passed the bar examination, Police Sergeant Joseph A. Kennedy’s name was included in the list. Sergeant Kennedy’s wife interested him in the study of law. He used to wait outside the John Marshall law .school for his wife’s classes to let out. “You may as well spend your time inside as out,” she suggested. So he, too, registered in the school and enjoyed the study of law so well that he kept on after his wife had been graduated and finally passed the bar examinations.

Singly and in twos and threes the lions leaped the boma, until the little inclosure was filled with cursing men and screaming horses battling for their lives with the green-eyed devils of the jungle. With the charge of the first lion, Jane Clayton had scrambled to her feet, and now r she stood horror-struck at the scene of savage slaughter that swirled and eddied about her. Once a bolting horse knocked her down, and a moment later a lion, leaping in > pursuit of another terror-stricken animal, brushed her so closely that she was again thrown.

Amidst the cracking of the rifles and the growls of the carnivora rose the death screams of the stricken men and horses as they were dragged down by the blood-mad cats. It was every man for himself; and in the melee the defenseless woman was either forgotten or ignored by her black captors. A score of times was her life menaced by the charging lions, by plunging horses, or by the wildly fired bullets of the frightened troopers. Yet there was no chance of escape for her. -v

Wide-eyed, Jane Clayton stood watching. In a daze she saw the beast nearest her suddenly drop the inanimate thing he had been clawing and raise his head to look around for anew victim. • Powerless with fear she was unable to move. Now the yellow eyes fastened themselves balefully upon the figure of the young woman. The bristling lips raised, disclosing the grinning fangs. A terrific roar broke from the savage throat and the great beast crouched to spring upon this new and helpless victim. . ..

Quiet had fallen early upon the camp where Tarzan and Werper lay securely bound. Two nervous sentries paced their beats. The other* slept—or tried to sleep—all but the ape-man. Silently and powerfully he strained it the bonds which fettered his wrists. The musses knotted beneath the smooth brown skin of his arms and shoulders. The veins stood out upon his temples from the force of his exertions—a strand parteji, another and another, and one hand was fre# —and then both arms.
