work in the psychology of nutri'

colleagues and advanced students
many of whom served as hu
man guinea pigs. He said:

he might have said: Make

cause shrimp is q SeafOOd, and
seafOOdS are high in iodine,
and iodine stimulates the thy

in the far north, before a good crowd at the Congregational church last night, under the auspices of the Ladies League.
 Capt Smith told something of practically every phase of the dis tant northern country where he has spent more than 40 years, to give him most intimate knowledge on the subject. Most interesting per- haps, are the lakes of oil, which he discovered and followed up for 300 miles right on into Siberia.
 Many of his slides were in colors and all showed large and clear.
 Completing the evenings program were two splendid baritone solos, "On the Road to Mandalay,' and When Dawn Brought You" sung by MT. Sam Ritter, a well-expressed reading, The Cremation of Sam McGee," by Miss Helen Lyndstrom, and a vocal selection by Mrs. w. c. Ellis in her usual pleasing man ner, Alaska and the U. s. A."
 Refreshments were served by the Ladies League after the entertain ment.

Dye mean you knew it all alcng?' queried Gresham.
 T may have guessed"
 It appeared that Evelyn had kept her promise to Jimmie and had not told her friends about Green, since no one questioned when the ma- i jor termed him a blackguard. Her self control was wonderful. Except for an occasional glance at the clock there was nothing to suggest the secret Finally she suggested bridge. If Lionel and I play the first rubber, we will cut out after and leave you four while we have some music"
 Nancy and Bill Netherton played against Evelyn d Duckworth. Evelin and her fiance were losing, but if she was inattentive, it was hardly surprising
 Once again Evelyn glanced at the clock. The hour was ap- preaching when Jimmie was to meet the superintendent. What would happen after that? a
 Your rubber" she said to Nan cy Come along, Lionel. Leave the experts to fight it out togeth- CT"
 Evelyn and her lover went into the next room. The game pro- ceeded to the sounds of music. Duckworth was singing and Evelyn playing. The clear, powerful voice rang through the house, but it did net distract the players, though one of them would wander from the table when his partner played his hand.
 All was still in the Dutch gar- den where figure sat motionless in the seat beside the stone steps. Above it, the satyr stretched it's arms in evil invitation. The minutes passed without out ward sign or movement. No light was visible from the music room for the door was shut and the cur

 T won't, but shouldn't you tel him at once?"
 If I sit here first, think I'll be able to picture the whole thing.
 "I'll do as you wish" she said with some effort mastering her agi- tation. T had thought of inviting some friends. But isn't it possible you are mistaken?"
 Impossible, said Jimmie.
 NO one but you knows about it?''
 I have told you and shall not tell any one else until see Rich mond tonight, I rely on you to help catch the guilty person"
 When he arrived at the Wade home, Nancy ran out to say that Evelyn had telephoned her about Marjorie's marriage and to invite them over for the evening. He told her that Donald would likely be busy elsewhere but that she should go.
 There were six in the small party that assembled that evening at Merrow Craig, the same little group gathered together. The young couple had gone, Donald and Jim mic were absent, but Major Gre sham, Bill Netherton, Nancy and Lionel were present to toast the bridal pair with champagne, served by Janet in the room in which they had previously played cards.
 Major Gresham, talkative after the fourth glass. told Netherton that he had thought Marjorie was fond of him and not Stirling, Bill agreeing quietly that others might have thought so. Why didn't she say it was Stirling at the inquest?" continued the major.
 Maybe she didn't want to drag her private affairs in public.'

 Then silently, but quickly, a shadow moved from the shade of the house to the hedge hidden pathway leading to the Dutch gar den. The form crept nearer to the broad stone steps and crawled up to the level of the wall on which the satyr stood. Then it leapt up, gloved hands gave the stone image a swift, unhesitating thrust, and it fell, crashing on the figure beneath.
 No sound followed, but the snap ping of WOODWORK and the break ing of the stone. The shadow stoop- ed again and made to run. Then there was a sound. Two forms sprang from the shelter of the trees and seized the escaping criminal
 The startled villain was thrown to the ground, and it was but a matter of moments for cords to secure his trembling limbs.
 You hold him now, Don. I will be back soorl.'
 With these words Jimmie sprang away-started to run to the house. AS he did so the clock in the hall struck ten and the strong voice in the music room sang the opening lines of September Roses" e
 Jimmie crossed the lawn and hastened to the drive in front. There, punctual to the second, he met Superintendent Richmond.
 This way" he led Richmond through the open hall door and headed toward the music room.
 Roses of memory, roses of Sep tember"-came the words clearly enough. Silently he turned the handle, but the door was locked. Quickly they ran back through the
