Crystal involuntarily jumped to
her feet, dropping her bag and
scattering lipstick, vanity, car tickets
and keys, as Tony gave her little
wave of recognition to Pat Tarver,
her father. &

knowing that Crystals panic had
something to do with the fear in
Pat Tarver'S eyes as he saw his
daughter and knew that some ex-

in it.
"It means that even though she
is in such a hurry right now that
she won't come over to speak to
me, she'll see Pat for tea or din
ner or drive with him tonight or
see him for lunch tomorrow" Tony
said to herself.
Pat was crossing the dim raftered
room of the inn. Even in the midst
of her uncertainty and near panic,
Tony's heart glowed a little to see
eyes follow him. Big and ruddy and
strong, but with that gentleness in
! eye and step which, when a part Of
big men, makes them as dear as
little children, Tony knew exactly
why people looked at him.
Pat was exactly what he was
bless hin-and Tony felt a little
twinge of disloyalty as she remem-
bered her mothers poses and re-
luctances to remember "the days
when"-the days on Myrtle st. when
corned beef and cabbage perfumed
the Tarver kitchen and even Tony's
pennies for Sunday school had to
be fitted into the family budget.
So many things rushed through
Tony's head during that long mo-
ment when Pat Tarver, very much a
/ king and very much a little boy,
crossed the room to her.
She remembered those many

Every blessed wave has turned to

"The water" he informed her
"emits light without sensible heat

"I told you'll" she interrupted
gayly. "Of course it's magic.
There's no such thing as light with
out heat. It's only make-believe.
It's water sprites weaving tapestries
for Neptune. Or maybe, it's the
ocean turned upside down, and
that's its silver carpet.
Anyhow it's enchanted. It's the

Thus mellow'd to that tender light

When he had finished, there was
that thick. heavy silence that closes
about lovers everywhere, who stand
beneath the moon. And, when he
spoke again he whispered, as lovers
always do at midnight.
"Only few more hours!"
? IF we could make life stand
still" she murmured. "It's been so
wonderful"
"We're docking before noon," he
replied. His voice was dull with
misery.
"And I'll meyer, never see you

MYSTERY STILL UNSOLVED
Divers Fail to Find Trace of Cargo
Of Diamonds Relieved Lost When
Ship Was Torpedocd.

Saint Nazaire, France, Aug. IS
UP)-The riddle of the Belgian
liner Elizabethville and her fortune
in diamonds remains unsolved.
An Italian salvage party which has
been searching for the diamonds in
the wreck of the Elizabethville. sunk
by a German submarine during the
war. gave up the quest today.
A strange mystery of the sea was
revived when the Italians began their
search. 1t was known that the Eliz-
abethville carried more than Sl,oo0,-
900 in diamonds on her fatal voy-
age, but when divers reached the
ships safe, go feet under the sea,
no trace of the jewels was found.
1t was assumed that the liners
captain, when the ship was torpe-
doed, attempted to save the dla-
monds. Perhap he hid them in some
secure place, in the event an at
tempt We're made to loot the safe.
Perhaps he placed them about his
person. hoping to reach shore and
save them for his owners In any
event, his secret went down with the
ship.
The work of the salvage party viii
be far from a loss. however. The ship
also carried a fortune in ivory--ten
tons-and $4,000 900 in gold. Work
ers began dynamitlng the wreck to
day to get at it.

those who perhaps considered him

his support.
1T is too early in the campaign to
predict with any degree OF accuracy
by what margin Connecticut will go

are many cross currents IN the
