told that Thomas Fleet never print

Still chatting. Ruth and Virn step

while the others plunged into the
water and swan. They soon slipped
alongside the houseboat with it gilt

Garrick realized as they mounted
the ladder that the marine engine had
materially changed the old-time house
boat from a mere scow or barge with
a low fiat house on II moored in a bay
or river and only with difficulty and
expense towed from one place to an
other. Now the houseboat like the

As they approached he had looked
her over carefully. One OF the first
things he noted was that strung from
two masts forward and astern was the
aerial of a wireless.
They clambered aboard and drag
ged up the canoe. At the stern they
saw a stockily.built man in sea toys

rather complete set of fishing tackle
