upper deck AFT He was trying to open one Of
the complicated folding armchairs and jammed
his thumb
It was the PAverleys, all of them-Mr. and
Mrs. and the four little girls. MRS. was effu-
sive and plumply pretty. Mr.. was little and
rosy and fat and bald, breathing out q pros
porous optimism.
Nathan had to sit with them. Just out o.
luck. MRS. asked a lot Of questions, Of course.
Mostly about his work. little about his father.
Half an hour Of It, Nathan watched the
gulls circling and soaring and diving, just
aStern.
They were sitting by the stairway that leads
up to the boat deck. woman came out from
the cabin That young woman. She moved
beautifully. He caught it now. .. I'm sure
IL would be fascinating" This to Mr..
OF course! She was an actress. Probably
famous. She passed directly in front Of them.
Did her wonderful eyes take him in for just
an instant as she went by? He wasn't sure.
Mrs. said, 1.-THE children must have their
maps, william" At which all four clamored,
"Oh, not" Nathan smiled politely.
''Well," responded Mr.. don't know but what
TN lie down q bit myself. It's a longish trip.
Five mortal hours OF it. See you again,
Nathan"
Nathan peeped out around the staircasing.
People were sitting all about Nice people.
Nice boFesome people. And one Of those
tanned girls was throwing sly glances in his
direction. A pretty blonde with a red hat.
He didn't want any Of them to catch hint
Of the wild notions that tangled confusedly in
his brain. Or In his nerves .. There she
was! Standing motionless, watching the gulls.
A dainty hand on the rail-
little rush Of color stole into his face.
Hastily he felt through his pockets for some
thing to sketch on. An envelope could he
hope to catch the line Of her head and back?
II only she'd hold the pose!
CHE moved. Came toward the stairs. Went
ND to the boat deck. Rats! He settled
back In . chair. The girl in the red hat was
looking again. Idly he drew. Just for appear
anees. Dared he follow up there? There was
another stairway forward. He waited a few
moments. There wouldn't be 50 many people
up tOpside there, in the sun and wind. Most
Of the crowd didn't come aboard anyway until
the stop at woods Hole.
With some semblance Of an of1hand man
ner, he slipped the envelope into his pocket
and stTolled into the cabin. Went on through
10 the forward stairs Mounted them. Walked
aft.
There she was standing in that same
position with hand on the rail. And nobody
else shout. You could see the gulls better up
here. Panny how excited he was. All strung
up and burning inside. How would you ex-
plain that? In the face Of his devotion to
Ethel? why, he was chasing desperately after
Ethel, just to put up one more pathetic plea.
He felt guilty. He walked slowly and quietly,
on the balls Of his feet. Here was q chair.
Near enough She hadn't heard him. At
least she didn't turn. He took the chair and
went to work.
She dropped her hand.
"Oh," he cried, don't move! Pleased"
She started and looked At him. Colby at
nrst, taking him all In. He couldn't guess
what she was thinking He couldn't think
himself. He knew b" was red. And biting

WHAT could he say to that? If he didn't
look out he would be stammerng again.
Thoughts Of Ethel came to mind in an emo.
tional uprush. Shed been slipping away from
him so. Playing around with Charlie Demar.
Darn Charliel An odd fact was that that
sense Of guilt had left him. The famous
Dora Dangerheld was just a girl, after al.
Well, just young woman, A little older than
she appeared, doubtless. But she was human.
And friendly. She must have had deep ex-
periences. Shed understand. He knew that
she was unhappy Though she had every
thing. Everything else. Queer business.
I'm in . pretty desperate mood" he NUT
tered dArkly.
Are you?"
Its q girl, Of course. She's at Nantucket

another fellow went along. Charlie Demar."
He turned on her. Tell me. then. why is it
that girls don't like a man who's honest with

Don't they?"
mo. They don't. They like man that kids
them plays with them. Take Charlie Demar.
He hasn't q sincere hair in his head. He's
had . lot Of girls. Doesn't take them seri-
ously = Doesn't mean a word he says. And
they fan for it. Even Ethel"
We'll, women are rather strange creatures
Surely you know that
Most Of them grant you. But thought
Ethel was different. I thought shed UNDER
stand, You see. she's not one of those rattle
headed nappers."
She was looking at him again, with that
thoughtful, slow scrutiny. She drew In . quick
breath, and rested q hand on his arm. "One
thing think can understand is that you're
a dear boy"
The gesture touched him with friendly
warmth, even - 1t revived that feeling Of
guilt.
But what Of II? Who cared what he might
do. Not Ethel

You could understand"
1T rather looks rs If we'd missed something.
I've been terribly lonely. But then, I suppose
that's the fate Of the artist. OF anybody with

He nodded grimly. Then he said, We're

She smiled In her musing way IT can see
that you don't altogether understand women.

MISSOURI
COssacks Get Smashing
Blow

Jefferson City, Mo.-Organized la
Dor won one of its greatest victories
when the general assembly defeated
a cossack bill that was urged by
every power that could be mustered
by Governor Caulfeld, Attorney Gen.
eral Shartel, the Missouri Bankers
Association and the press of this
state. Unionists declare that there
was more pressure behind this bill
than any measure in recent years.
Attorney General Shartel boasts
that the fight will be renewed two
years hence, and labor replies that
cossack advocates will be retired to
private life, and that other political
agents of privilege will be more eau
tious.
The workers made a single-handed
fight against the bill. They pointed
out, as did workers in Illinois when
the cossack proposal in that state
was recently defeated, that the real
purpose is to centralize police power
in the hands of the governor and that
protection to farmers" and the Cen
forcement of law" is stage scenery.

isfied."
The Houston Post-Dispatch dissents
from this attempt to peonize Texas.
The editor declares that "this is a
poor brand of publicity to emanate
from city where the relations be-
tween employers and trade unions
have for years been so amiable and
where the trade union movement has
contributed SO greatly to community
development. Factories exploiting
alien workers at starvation wages
are doubtful asset to any commun-
ity."
This reputation of peonizing poll
cies has stung the business men, and
R. c. Kuldell, president of the cham
ber, attempts to answer the attack
in a long letter to the Post-Dispatch.
The burden of his plea is praise for
the anti-union shop and careful ig-
noring of his reference to an "al-
most unlimited supply of unorgani-
Fable Mexican labor that are "easily

OKLAHOMA CITY
UNIONS ARE ALIVE
AND VERY ACTIVE

Washington.-A small group Of
business men in Oklahoma City ad-
vertise that that city is on an anti
union basis and this statement is de-
ceiving outside contractors, says
Victor S. Purdy, secretary treasurer
of the Oklahoma Federation of La
Dor, in letter to William J. Spencer,
secretary-treasurer building trades
department, A. F. of L.
Practically all of the building
trades are represented by local
unions. We find some difficulty in
the fact that contractors coming from
other cities are under the impression
that this is non-union town and that
they need not employ members of the
building trades unions," says Mr..
Purdy.
II would appreciate it if you would
give this as wide publicity as pos
sible."
