prietor of the swimming and sun-bathing

he stressed the fact that he was an ANA

agreed to teach Herr Birndls patrons Three

was hungry much of the time. as the. early

the glacier-fed lake too chilly for bathing,

He was training for race for his club and
one evening was caught in a storm when
he started to swim across the lake. He was
almost drowned when Puck, 16-year-old
daughter of Baron and Baroness Dobbers-
berg, the latter known on the stage as Ca
milla Bojan, rowed out and rescued him.
She took him to the castle bathing hut and,

with certain constraint. Martin was
silent in CONSERVATION at such a flow
of words.

felt that he now had firm ground be-

This came to no good, and sne went

swim there was a space marked out by

daily according to the level of the

Martin listened, smiling: he could
hear her voice quite distinctly. 1t was
sweet and Of remarkable fiexibility.
He would have liked very much to hear

air, and crept into the boat. A moment

stroke OF the oars into transparent water
