 CHAPTER TX
 Pablito left the "Silver Dart with young man who was waiting to convert it into an ornate gon- dola. Then he made his way to the servants quarters.
 There he found excitement that was made manifest through loud talk and occasional high pitched laughter. The servants were ex- cited by the prospect of the good time of which they would have glimpses and also because 1t was rumored that on this occasion Field intended to outdo past ex- travagances.
 ''Too bad you-all won't be here tonight" Jack commented.
 I've seen such parties before" Pablito answered.
 Not like this here one. This is the biggest yet"
 Pablito picked up sweater, sung out, "So long, and turned toward the gate of the patio where Pete waited in the car the servants used
 They drove over sandy roads and through waste areas toward the strip of beach where Pablito al- ways moored the small boat to which he had attached power en- zine. In this he waved goodby 10 to Pete, started the engine and made for home-the strip of land that would be lonely tonight. But it would not be for long. Pablito realized, smiling. At nine he would be coming back to the camp. Back to talk with Estelle if the fates were kind - and he prayed they l. H. . ,rI, q to a masquerade that would be doubly real for him.
 He planned some of the things he would say to her and said them half aloud. The screech of swoop ing gull seemed to mock him and he replied to it in kind. Then, re- membering, he turned his face to- ward the stretch of water beyond which lay Cuba. He had always hungered to go there and now he was going, but with reluctance dimming his eagerness to view new scenes. There was often, he de- cided, an irony about ones granted wisfes By the time the goal was realized it was apt to seem less al- turing. But he knew that Field had big place outside of Havana. Perhaps-it was barely possible he might see Estelle there. At this prospect Pablito fell to dreaming again.
 Suddenly he remembered Moves. He hoped Moves was comfortable and that he had kept enough money to insure meals and roof that would cover him. Sometimes the stars were put out by rain and then one needed a roof. Pablito's brow furrowed, thinking of Moves, who needed care.
 But he could not be down. hearted for long on such a night and presently he was thinking Of Estelle once more.
 Fields camp at 10 that night was filled with a colorful throng- ladies of Venice, toreadors, Pier rots, Columbines, nuns, priests, senoritas of old Spain. There were grown-ups turned to children just for the night. Russian royalty, Wateau milk maids, pirates, every variety of soldiers, Italian peasants Sicilian fishermen, Lady Hamil- tons, Bonapartes, Queen Elizabeths and many others. Bright hues, rich fabrics and fantastic designs were to be seen on all sides. There was a wide range in the costumes because of the wide range in per sonal tastes. And back of all the revelry was the grandeur made by a man who saw no reason against spending money except the lack or it to spend.
 Pablito pulled his small boat to shore and walked to the camp. This took half an hour in spite of the fact that he knew the way per fectly and walked swiftly. He had been treasured and given courage by his appearance. His physique lent itself well to the garb he had chosen and, with his light hair cov- cred, the brown of his skin made
