INSTALLMENT XIII.

.THE three people looked at one
another in speculative silence
What next?
i Vern finally broke it. whats
the large idea?" he asked.
Irene laughed. At least she made the
noise of laughing, although there was
no mirth in her expression.
1T is so strange to hear clergyman
use slang" she explained.
The warning was sufficient. Vern
flashed q glance Of understanding.
Your future husband and did not
have much time for conversation" he
went on this time in cenventionally
formal language. so did not know
that my services were going to be re-
quired at wedding. I rather feared
that something had happened to that
brother of yours about whom you have
been so worried of late. I trust he Is
we'll"
"Oh, yes, Dr. Snyder He is quite
well as yet. I've only seen him for q
moment. Until the wedding Is over he
has been left in charge Of Mr.. Squales'
helper. We are so short Of servants
here ourselves"
Il see. The boy is in the nursery
upstairs, I presume?" It was an artless
have been asked by any garrulous tndi-
vidual such as Vern was attempting to
paint over his own personality.
Irene got the idea and took chance
Hes in his play room but 1t isn't ex-
actly nursery and it isn't in the house
You may have noticed the lookout up
in the top Of the tall pine out In the
yard"
'Ah yes quite so. remember"
''Drury is up there. Mr.. Pancake has
kindly volunteered to keep him amused
until Mr.. Squales and I are ready to
start on our honeymoon"
There was no necessity to say more
The situation was perfectly clear. The
boy was being held, practically a pris-
oner, as a guarantee of the good be-
havior Of himself and all the other
members of the party. In the custody
of "Dummys" henchman who Vern
conceded, after having seen Dummy, u
would be capable of any atrocity, Drury
was as good as dead If Irene did not do
exactly as her tormentor desired
Vern tried to recall the exact situa-
tion OF the lookout. 1t was high above
the roof Of the house, higher than any
thing save one or two Of its brother
pines. The only way to reach 1t was by
the cleated ladder up the trunk OF
the tree and through a man-hole in
the floor of the lookout. Obviously it
would be impossible to pay call If one
were in the least unwelcome.
1t would be equally impossible to
harm the garrison of the stronghold
without inf1icting equal or greater dam
age on the hostage. Yes, viewing it
from memory. the position in the tree
top seemed to Vern to be practically
unassailable one even II there were no
one on the ground to hinder an as
sault. He realized with an inward

ISLAND GIRL
H FRANK r. ADAMS

sinking Of the heart how helpless he
was to render any assistance to this
girl who had made such an overwhelm-
ing appeal to his manhood.
Vern was not deceived by her calm
exterior. He knew by now that be-
meath her appearance Of philosophical
poise she was torn by wracking emo
tions. Vern did not remember ever to
have met q real heroine before. The
ones on the stage and in motion pic
lures confronted q situation with much
visible anguish. He was rather sur
prised to find that q real woman like
this ran bang up against a no-alterna-
tive wall with the stoical courage one
expected from q man Of exceptional
bravery. His first adnliring judgment
was more than confirmed: Irene was q
thoroughbred. Her heredity and fine
ness of race showed in the steadiness OF
her hands, the serenity Of her express
sion.
Vern felt that he must live up to the
example she was setting. He could dc
no less than face 1t as internationally
as she.
And yet it was an incredible situa-
ton. For. after all, this was the United
States. not a South African jungle, the
law of the land Of liberty prevailed and
on the mainland, not over three or four
miles away there were plenty Of efficient
officers sworn to uphold those laws.
This illegal seizure of the island and
the capture Of its Inhabitants was as
much an act Of piracy as any deed
which Capt. Kidd might have perpe-
trated on that very coast in the law
less days Of two centuries ago.
Here was a demonstration with q
vengeance Of the theory which Vern
inns colr hoA ~ - III A-;a
Dodd Speed, that evening when the ad-
venture began. namely, that beyond the
plate glass OF limousines there Is eter-
nal warfare, that 1t Is the man on foot
who comes into contact with life.
This was situation that had to be
met without depending on the help OF
policemen, the fire department or a file
OF marines. Whatever they could not
do themselves. either by the strength
or strategy innate in their beings, was
not going to be done. The only law
which prevailed on Little Cane Key was
the law OF the upper hand.
The thing that made the inevitableness
OF the denouement especially intolerable
to Vern was the conviction that Irene
would not allow herself to live any
longer than was absolutely necessary to
save her brothers life. AS soon as he
was In place Of safety she would not
endure the degrading attentions of the
man who planned to be her mate. She
could not exist as "Dummy's" wife.
That was as obvious as the most ele-
mentary addition in first grade arith-
metic
Whatever was to be done to save
Irene from the fate which she was fac
Ing with serene calm that was doubt
less the veneer o{ civilization and breed
ing over a quaking primitive terror must
be accomplished Immediately. In a
very short while 1t would be too late,

National Comdr. j. w. Mcqueen re-
ceived last week emphatic Endorsement
of President Roosevelt of the annual
forget-me-not drive, the Rehabilitation
Service and the basic principles OF the
D. A. " legislative program. The text
Of the letter from the President fol-
lows:
"The annual forget-men campaign
of the Disabled American Veterans Is
worthy of generous public support.
There, Is ample evidence that the
use of these contributions In main
tanning free rehabilitation service to
assist disabled men IN preparation ana
presentation of their claims has oeen
helpful to both the veteran and the
Government.
May I offer my commendation OF
the stand of your recent national con-
vention at Cincinnati in deciding not
to press immediate redemption OF the
adjusted service certificates until the
condition of the Treasury warrants
such action? Furthermore, I believe
the D. A. v. has acted wisely in con-
centrating its attention to the cause
of those whose disabilities are trace
able to their war service.
"It is my earnest hope that your
forget-me- mot campaign will be wholly
successful"

Smuts' Memory Still Keen.

Despite his age, Gen. SHUTS, South
Africas grand old man, retains his
keen memory. At Croydon Aerodrome,
London, as he was preparing to fly
back to Africa, he stopped in front Of
Constable Kennedy of the air ministry
police force. IT have seen you some
where BEFORE" he said. "Yes," replied
Kennedy. you saw me 81 years ago
at the Peace Conference at Wereenig-
ing In the Transvaal." OF course" "
said the general, you are the Little
Trumpeter Kennedy who used to stroke
my Basuto pony's tail, for which you
had an admiration"

Glasgow May Lose Subsidy.

Delay In construction Of 1000 houses,
caused by the shortage Of bricks and
lumber, may cause Glasgow, Scotland,
to lose part of the government subsidy,
and city authorities are asking the Sec
retary Of state for Scotland to extend
the subsidy period. The subsidy Is due
to be withdrawn in March, and the
government has announced that houses
not completed by that time cannot quail
ify. As this might mean big loss to
Glasgow a special plea is being made.
