made another puzzle that baffled
her. She tried to catch Kenilworth
off his guard.

smiled, quizzically again, and let his

her to the rim of the dance floor,
toward an opening between the ia

hand on his sleeve and stopped him.

She had thought him old, much too
old, but he danced with her and
talked to her on the level Of easy

AT the annual dahlia exhibition at

thousands of dahlias are in bloom.
One exhibit is arranged in five sec.
tions. Each section contains a diff.
ferent variety of blossoms separated
by four long metal rails and four
short ones.
Some of these dahlias were sold
and the grouping was changed to
three sections. The same number of
rails were used. They formed an
attractive design with no projecting
ends.
How were the rails rearranged?

 A communication was received from Washington stating that owing to lack of funds the lighthouse and foghorn recommended for Resurrection Bay could not be built this year. It was stated that only S44 1000 would be available for the completion of the lighthouse at Cape Spencer, and that there would be only sufficient funds to maintain the bugs and lighthouses now installed.
