making him all the more acutely aware
of the woman In his arms.
Thrilling - glorious to make her
obey like this. =. His will imposed
on this slender, maddening creature.
The music stopped with q wall.
Stopped abruptly dropping them back
with sickening reaction into the
crowded social hall of the Neptune.
Babbling conversation rising on all
sides Of them.
Joyce found herself bowling and
smiling automatically to the slick
haired Mr.. Peters. Mrs. Calhoun
waved.
Stay in here and listen to inanities
for the rest of the evening! =. The
man swore under his breath.
"It's beautiful on deck. Want to
get a breath of fresh air?"
Jim Keith never knew whether Joyce
answered or whether she simply turned
and walked up the stairs with him.
Brushing through the crowd which
lined the elaborate staircase. Smiling
exchanging pleasant nothings.
Out onto the deck-where o tropic
wind breathed on their faces soft as q
kiss and mysterious moonlit sea
stretched away to infinity. Out on the
deck, where the steamer chairs were
crowded and dark figures lined up at
the rail.
Maddened evaporation leaped in Jim
Keith's soul. In a sort of still fury he
turned to the girl beside him.
"People-confounde people every
wherel Want to come down to the
bow? {. At least Wen be by our
selves"
A mad thing to say-but 1t was
mad night. Still in that strange ST.
lence, Joyce turned and went with him.
Strange and dreamlike, to be walk
ing down the deck with her ike this.
Somewhere-not so far back on
his family tree-there had been Gel
tic grandmother who had endowed Jim
with something Of her own mystic half
sad nature.
This night was touched with magic
and touched with magic, too, the girl
who walked beside HIM Joyce had
chosen to wear dress of lilac blue
the far-off, mysterious blue Of the sea.
In this light it faded into the tone Of
the water and the sky, so that she
seemed to be piece Of them.
The moon was so bright that 1t filled
even the shadows with an underlying
misty light. The eye could not tell
where water ended and sky began. It
seemed to the man that they moved
through the heart Of a giant opal.

difficulty here yesterday within a
half hour after alighting from a
freight train.

to park police that they had not
only been charged 40 cents for an
eight-block ride, but the driver
had failed to return with the
change from a dollar bill.

Seventh st. N. E., identified by
the boys as their taxi driver, and

TRUCK TAG LAW

BALTIMORE, Sept. 22.-Mary-

to counterfeit Pennsylvania law
requiring all Maryland trucks en-
tering the Keystone State more
than 80 times a year to carry
Pennsylvania license tags. The
law becomes effective october Is.
Although the policy of this
State has not yet been decided,
Maryland's motor vehicle laws
contain provisions for author
izing suitable rulings, accord
ing to D. Marshall Schroeder,
deputy commissioner of motor
vehicles.
Many Eastern Shore truck op-
orators will be hit by the Penn
Sylvania law as many machines
make two or three trips weekly
to Philadelphia carrying livestock,
produce and sea food. Recipro-
cal action would hit chain store
trucks from Pennsylvania ware
houses which make hundreds of
trips annually into western
Maryland.
