| | university graduate in engineer. ing, lost his job following the lmerger of the plant where Ihe was ' employed, and becao swimming instructor at Q mountain lake | resort for tho summer. Herr
 Birndl, proprietor of the swim-
 ming and sun-bathing establish
 ment, found Martin very difi- cult to understand. Martin had made quite Q reputation swim
 ming for his Berlin Club and Inc
 stressed the fact that he was an amateur although through nec-
 essity he had agreed to teach Herr Birndl's patrons. Three
 times day he visited the post office looking for . letter regard. ing an invention he had perfect
 ed. He was hungry much of the 1imc fin the early season as tho |. ..sycathcr was cold and tho water : of the glacier-fed 1akc too chilly for bathing, and Martins only
 earnings wore about 8 third of
 schiIling for each lesson he gave. .Ho was training for q race for
 his club and one evening was caught in . storm when he start ed to swim across the lake. He .svas almost drowned when Puck, 's16-year-old daughter of Baron Baroness DObbcrsberg, the lat. .stcr known on the stage as Camil-
 Ia Bojan, rowcd out and rescued
 him. The day of his arrival Mar.
 tin was attracted by tall brown
 eyed girl Inc learned later was
 May Lysscnhop who had twin sister Carla. They looked so much
 alike that their father said he
 Jdidn't know ono from the other.

 : "I've come a horrible cropper over you, my dear, I'm completely Rowled over," said Martin to May Gyssenhop.
 -And May replied questioningly hhd blissmully: "Yes?. ="
 : Each generation has its own ex- perience of love and speaks of 1t Iii it's targon. In novels and poems, n the black and white of the.print a page, the declaration, T love Spu." is all very well, but for kouug man of to-day to speak so tentinentally to 8 girl of to-day would seem quite out of place. Ehey play and swim and romp to- kether. Then dance and kiss and en- 5py them1elves to the full without 6. care. But they do not say: II love you" They would be quite Ashamed to say it.
 s"I've come a horrible cropper.. ns." were Martins words. "The mo- sf1ent l first saw you on the prom anade, and then when l suddenly found you standing beside me on the gangway = that finished me completely. ~"
 's"Yes, you baby!" May answered. as she looked at him with wire open eyes. though 1t was so dark that she could see nothing but something bright where his teeth were when h elaughed. It was eleven at night. The dancing still went on at the Big Petermann; the IauBic could be heard from where they were far away. Martin and May had ben dancing, and at first they had gone only as far as the terrace to take q breath of air. Slowly arm in arm they walked for sOm0 distance along the promen- Atie. But soon they drew aside anong the trees, instinctively shun- ming the eyes of the summer visi- tors who sat talking on the bench eS. They felt the pine needles soft beneath their noiseless steps and fell silent themselves,
 When they came to the little fountain of Julienbrunen they kiss- ed for the first time. It was not al- together a success. 1t was little shy and clumsy. Immediately after t,a has ta l. fv1n n hut what they said had little meaning. it. was Q mere accompaniment to the murmur of the trees. It was dark, and they were alone there. They fell silent again, and 1t seem- ed to Martin that he would soon have to suffocate or explode - he felt so full and big and burning hot within.
 In the shadow where the path began to climb the hill in zigzags amid the scent of the pines. they Kissed a second time. And this time they both went pale. and Martin had . weakness in his knees as if from squirting too hard in race.
 why, you're trembling, dear," May whispered This kiss had gone through her like lightning in q bcorched and transformed. her Arms hanging, her eyes closed and limbs heavy with longing.
 "Yes, I am trembling bit." said Martin, amazed.
 "How wonderful. .." May mur- mured. It was wonderful that he, 50 strong and big, stood there trembling at the mere touch of her. As if a last thin frost had held her that now was thaWed May yielded herself to Martins arms, and to the kisses that sought and drank her own.
 It struck eleven as they sur mounted the highest of the five windIngs of the path and, a little breathless. reached the Zirbitz-
