Then he pointed the center and
sprang to my feet, choking.
The center of the circle was the
bandstand in the Earl's Court grounds.
And the bandstand was not twenty

Everybody, probably, has ridden in

with number of other boats, from a
central pole by long stays of steel. A
mechanism underground sets the
boats revolving through the air. AS
they swing further and further out
they tilt inward, until one rides at a
dizzy pace almost upon his side. If
the machine were not operating one
would fall to the ground below, but
the force of centrifugal motion keeps
one in the boat as water stays in a
bucket whirled round the head. We
were passing this continuance, I say,
when, looking up in response to
Crewe's pinch, saw that the operator
was Shay.

But the next day another similar

wall of an empty house in Bromley

we were soon ensconced In the clump
of laurel shrubs. Earls Court was
empty of its throngs, and the proprie.
tors of the booths and amusement
shows were vending their tired way
homeward After ten minutes more
we remained practically the sole in

I had no watch and the minutes
passed like hours. Once or twice,
shivering there alone in the darkness,
fancied l heard faint calls from the
direction of the bandstand. But the
whistle did not blow. At last, wearied

He spread the great sheets on the

said, piercing the paper with a pin.

"Why, you see, Tom insisted on go

knew the way and he simply wouldn't

about forty miles out Of our road and
arrived at Rose Lodge late for an
evening dinner. when we should have

we accepted the invitation to find out
exactly how to go. And spoke of it
again as we were dressing Monday
afternoon.
Don't you worry said Tom. I've

roads are so confusing, | persisted.
