tended to. The suggestion, planted
by Mariner on the day Of Edwards
first visit that he ought to put him
self as well as his money into the
business, from being remote and al
most fantastic possibility came nearer
with the irresistible rush of an ex-
press train.
Early in November, we'll within a
month of the time he'd made his first
investment in the company, he sent
his resignation as cashier Of the Chi

stab Of terror that accompanied his

vice president that he had gone into
business of his own which would re-
quire all his time. He left the COM

cism, let alone complaint, Of their
treatment Of him.
He spent, there was no denying it,
a nlghtmarish three or four days wait
ing for the answer to his letter But
when it came, he felt a profound re-
lief.
That same day Albert Willard
dropped into his office. He'd hap
pened to be passing by, he said with
transparent insincerity and had run
up on the spur of the moment to sug-
gest that they lunch together. 1t was
a devil Of while since they'd seen
anything Of each other, really. Ed
ward was quite aware that this was
true, and that it was his own doing.
He'd been avoiding Bert lately though
Bert was his oldest friend

said. "But sit down a minute first.
There's something l want to tell you
about" Now that he was irrevoc-
ably committed to the great adventure,
he didn't want to wait even while
they were walking around the corner
to the club.
Except for profane exclamation
of establishment now and then and q
-committal question or two, Bert
listened in silence to the whole story.
"Youve been keeping it almighty
dark, it seems to me-" he commented
thoughtfully when Edward had fin
ished. Didn't want to be argued out
of it, l suppose. Like a kid who
wants to marry some girl his family
don't approve Of. / know"
Edward laughed little uneasily at
the comparison. "All right go ahead.
It's your turn. You're entitled to a
chance to tell me I've been id

the Armory Tuesday night. Rose
was handicapped by a bad left a.
