peers into the darkness suddenly a
warning cry, shot, the mosqu TO

harbour defences and the carefully
planned night attack is launched.
Like Indians the swift little motor

The story of "Smilin' Through,
after n prologue that is far too unique

man who has as his ward, delight
full W SD of an Irish girl with all the
charm of the central figure in peg
n, NV Heart " For years he has
bitterly remembered the fact that an
other man has won the woman whom

swears that they shall never marry
Right here, comes in the quaintncs'
of them ece. Back through the haz,
film of years that have passed comes

turns. he permits them to be HAPPY
and. in so Icing, finds happiness nm
