 Bewilderment, shot with a gleam of half-incredulous understanding, seemed to traIsf1x him. We stood a long mo- rnent, our eyes challenging each oth- CT, exchanging their countersign of faith and steadfastness. Then slowly ne held out his hand. I laid mine in five stood hand in hand, comrades at last. Without more words he turned away and strode over to the council of three.
 The group dissolved and moved ran- idly toward us Miss Browne, ex- ultant, beaming. was in the van. She set her substantial feet down like a charger paving the earth. You might almost have said that Violet pranced. Aunt Jane was round-eyed and twit- tering. Mir. Tubbs wore a look of suppressed astOnishment. almost of perturbation. Whats his gamer" was the question in the sophisticated eye of Mir. Tubbs. But the Scotchman had, when he chose. a perfect poker face. The great game of bluff would have suited him to a nicety.
 Miss Browne advanced on Cuthbert Vane and seized both his hands in an ardent clasp.
 "Mr. Vane," she said with solemnity T thank yOu-in the name of this ex- petition thank yOu-for the influence you have exerted upon your friends"
 And this seemed to be to the noble youth the most stunning of all the shocks of that eventful morning. Now came the matter of drawing up the new agreement. It was a canny Scot indeed who. acting on the hint l had just given him. finally settled its terms. In the first place, the previous agreement was declared null and void. In the second, Mir. Tubbs was to have his fourth only If the treasure were discovered through his direct agency. And it was under this condition and TO other that Dugald Shaw bound himself to relinquish his original claim. Virginia Harding signed a new renunciatOry clause, but it bore only on treasure discovered by Mir. Tuhbs. Indeed. the entire contract was of force only if MT. Tubbs fulfilled his part of it, and fell to pieces if he did not. Which was exactly what 1 wanted.
 No difficulty was made of the ab- sence of Captain Magnus. as his in- terests were unaffected by the change. Space was left for his signature. Mine came last of all. as that of a mere ini- teT1oper and hanger-On.
 My demonstrations of joy at this happy issue of my hopes had to be confined to a smile-in which for a startled instant Violet had seemed to sense the triumph. It was still on mJ' lips as with general movement we rose from the table about which we had been grouped during the absorb ing business of drawing up the con- tract. Cookie had been clamOring for us to leave, that he might spread the table for lunch. had opened my mouth to call him, "All right, Cookie :" when a shrill voIIey of barks from Crusoe shattered the stiffness of the drowsy air. In the same instant the voice of Cookie, raised to a sharp note of alarm, rang through the camp:

Honestly, do you like a
 fancy pipe?

You know the kind we mean. It comes in a beautiful velvet-lined leather case and arrives on your birth day or Christmas. And when you have company, and they talk pipes, you go to the drawer, pull out your fancy pipe, polish it with the palm of your hand and perhaps fill it up and smoke with your best company manners.
 And then, when all the folks have gone-or before they have gone, if they stay too long-you reach for your favorite briar, fill her up just right, and then the world is pretty good again. The people who seemed terrible bores few minutes ago look like regular human beings as you see them through transparent blue haze of curling smoke. In the meantime, the fancy pipe has been relegated to its glorious case for another period of oblivion.
 It's the same with tobacco, too. Somebody smoking a fancy brand offers you his pouch, and just to be a good fellow you take pipeful (feeling a little pang of conscience as you push the unfamiliar tobacco into your pet pipe). And you smoke it. It may be very good tobacco. Perhaps you can't even decide what, if anything. is the matter with it.
 But it isn't your brand, and when you get near the end, perhaps just little hastily, you knock out the fancy tobacco and pull out your own, fear ful lest the too-friendly pouch appear again and you may have to refuse gently but firmly.
 Have you had such an experience? And isn't it almost worth it to know how much you really like your Edge worth?
 We don't claim that Edgeworth pleases every man. But we do want every pipe smoker to try Edgeworth
 ito find out for
 @ himself if it isn't HFR nRa just the taste and I@@ strength to suit fnf,Ey IlDnId him.
 INW, E1RN We gladly take kpra1 ra1'SSaaI I0 C1ISs6 1IN,6rn the burden of proof VnNVI{SgDO11gg on our own shoul-
 uf fEhr~ ders. So we will S .6ngRTHh send generous PUB sSr samples of
 S SucE Edgeworth, E both Ready SSEE6SMI Rubbed and
 hfV Plug Slice, to
 any pipe smoker who will ask for it.
 Send us postcard with your name and address, and we'll put the samples into the hands of Uncle Sans mes sengers just as quick as we can. Then, when you get them, light up your pipe, puff away to your hearts content and you can be the whole jury and the judge. If you like Edgeworth-and we hope you wiIl-you can buy it at your dealers by the package, tin or jar.
 Address your card for free samples to Larus 6 Brother Co.,, 900 South 21st Street, Richmond, Virginia.
 To Retail Tobacco Merchants: If your jobber cannot supply you with Edgeworth, Larus 6 Brother Com pany will gladly send you prepaid by parcel post one or two-dozen carton of any size of Plug Slice or Ready Rubbed for the same price you would pay the jobber.

Model Camp For Girl Scouts:

F~orty-eight summer camps are now
operated by the Girl Scouts, according
to a statement recently made by Mrs.
Jane Deeter Rippin, national director
of the organization, at headquarters,
New York. OF these one is directed
by headquarters. The balance are un-
der the management of local councils.
The Briarcliff camp, comprising
about lao acres of hills, woodland and
cleared spaces, was the gift of former
United States, Senator and Mrs. Will
lam A. Clark, of Montana, who made
daughter, Andree. 1t is really a train
ing place for future scout captains
and is a model of it's kind.
The camp accommodates 112 girls
at a time, or approximately $50 each
season. The girls, who are divided in
to units of eight, with a councillor for
each unit, are drawn from all over the
United States, whereas the scouts at
tending the other camps are members
of their own councils. AT Camp An
dree Clark the girls of each unit are
responsible to their councillor, who in
turn is responsible to the camp direct
or.
The camp is not harrasSed by a
fixed daily program. The units, or
troops, decide on their own daily work
and play, and may even select their
three meals, provided they are drawn
from menus submitted by the camp
dietetian. The food is prepared on
open fireplaces, one of which is as
signed to each unit, and if the camp,
ers desire a ~lean-to, to protect them
in rainy weather, they must provide
it. independence and + e sourcefulness
are two of the scouting fundamentals.

Hooray-Makawao is Coming up"
but maybe Venting down"
Inc Sweet Pea Troop of Girl Scouts
held its first entertainment and dance
last evening, Saturday which about 200
people attended. 1t was the first time
such a thing was tried and we are
glad to say it turned out to be one of
the best of times the people ever had.
1t was held in the school house and
three rooms were used. The middle
was used as a stage and decora-
tions were o on Saturday after
noon in which Japanese lanterns were
strung across the room with greens.
Makawao is handicapped because of
no electricity. At half past six people
were pouring in to get a good place
for the show and they continued arriv-
ing until $50.
The program lasted from 8 to $50
started with the song America" and
ended with the "Star Spangled Ban
ner." Miss Seibert the director of the
girl scouts on Maui gave a talk on
girl scouts.
The. best numbers on the program
were the Irish Lit and the Hoop
Drill. Cheer after cheer rent the air
as each part was given. After the
an exhibition of steel guitar
played with the foot and on the back
was given by an Oriental Trio" as
sisted by Lieutenant Miller on the
piano for the dances.
Although the music wasn't very
good everyone enjoyed themselves in
some way. Miss Parker of Pauwela
school sang two solos assisted by Miss
Havlickek also of Pauwela Mr.. Sayers
played two solos on the cornet as
sisted by Miss Miller on the piano,

Tuesday evening at the Hippodrome,
the Star of Bethlehem (Lahaina) and
Lehua (Wailuku) troops gave a joint
entertainment. The home troop gave
a very clever little n act play and
received much applause.
The visitors in uniform opened their
program with several songs accom-
panied by their own orchestra. This
was well received. The Sheik," a
duet in costume by two scouts scored
a big hit. The operetta "Mellieotte,"
was splendidly given and represented
much hard practice. The girls, Miss
Van Keuren and Miss Seong should
be congratulated upon their ambitious
undertaking and its successful compile
ton. A fine picture, "Kazan" an DIV
er Curwood story closed the program.
We thank all those who assisted us
in this performance. Forty per cent of
the proceeds goes to the two troops.

"In camp the girls are instructed in

ing to Keanae. We started at 100
o'clock and everyone was glad to go.
The girls went On a big car and the
boys orr a truck with the baggage.
The girls reached there first and went
TO Mr.. Pogue's house for pots and a
frying pan. When the boys came
dinner was started.
After we ate everyone went swim
ming. The girls climbed up to the
Girl Scout camping ground and went
in the beautiful pool. How proud we
are to be the first troop to swim there
even before the ladder is finishedl
When we got back it was dark, so the
boys started the camp fire and we
sang and heard stories.
I'VE had a beautiful camping place
though a little small for 10. Anyhow
how could we sleep with such a
beautiful moon!
Next morning breakfast was eaten
after a short walk of about two miles
to the dairy and back.
Saturdays hike was the most ex-
citing as we got lost and rained on
and starved and came out singing af-
ter all. Mr.. Plunkett was so kind. He
gave us a house, a stove, milk, Ian
terms, mosquito powder and an ukulele.
We got to sleep very quickly and were
ready neX morning after some laund-
ry work and a hunt for the swimming
pool to set out for Lower Keanae. At
the grocery store we had half an hour
to rest and bought things to eat when
we came to the school grounds we
were much pleased to see a beautiful
place. We cooked our diner among
the guava bushes and when night
came we played cards by candle light
and sang. Our captain tool us to
see the stars through a field glass and
we saw many which we never noticed
before.
"In the morning we started another
hike for our return to Kailua. Most
of the scouts reached there by n
and all got in by three. Just as we
finished eating a big lunch of rice
and eggs the cars came. Then every
one started home with leis of ferns
and thimble berries. Our hats were
so cute decorated with them. There
was an exciting race between the
Cadillac and the truck until the
truck got a fiat tire. But as it kindly
stopped by a pineapple field nobody
minded.
when we got home you bet every
one was tired but we are planning al
ready for another camping trip.
