The ingenuity of the subterranean
termites which are found in this
section of the country is we'll illus
trated in the above photograph,
which shows how they erect mud
tubes, or runways, up a basement
to get at the foundation timbers and
flooring in house or other wooden
structure. Through these tubes
contact is maintained between their
home in the ground and their food
supply in the wood, with soldiers to
detect any break in the line of
communication, and workers to re-
pair it.
The presence of termites is sell
dom discovered until after consid-
cradle damage has been done. The
worker ternite never shows itself,
but remains hidden inside the wood.
Only at one season of the year,
during the spring and early summer
in this section of the country, does
the termite give any indication Of
its presence.
During that season, the swarming
termites, or winged reproductives,
come out into the open to explore
and locate new colonies. Countless
such new colonies are established
each spring; consequently. many adj
ditional homes are now entertaining
these unwanted guests.
At this or any other time of the
year other than during the swarm
ing season, the only way the pres

a thing like that, and If I'd been

A S she crossed the street and
n approached the hotel, she saw
man standing on its old-fash-
Toned, small-townish wooden We

looked again: surely there was
something familiar about the set of
those shoulders and the way he

the man turned and faced her. He
looked at her in surprise, and then
hurried to meet her. Sandy!
The old throb of excitement that
the mere sight OF him seemed to
arouse Jared her nerves once more.
She shook his hand and murmured
something about being surprised to
see him.
Told you I was going to drop in
and look you up, didn't ~" said
Sandy, Il keep my promises and 1
waste no time. Where are you GO

"Why-whX. nowhere special, said

They went down the street, past
the brief business district and the
little red railroad station, and en-
tered the rather .unkempt park
which Maplehurst maintained on
the banks of the sluggish river
which Topped itself about the west
side of the town.
Sandy" she said putting hand
on his wrist and looking up at him
soberly, Il want you to explain
something to me-"
"Yeah?" He looked down, saw
how serious she was. and became
equally serious himself. What is
it?"
"That-that day we went to the
police station-remember? 1 said
we'd been out canoeing on the Fri
day before, when that-that robbery
happened. Well, I got to thinking
about that on the train, coming

She looked up at him earnestly.
His eyes met hers, unwaveringly.

said, trying TO be severe, but sue
ceeding only in being rather girl
ishly pathetic. You knew it wasn't.
SANDY know you did. But you
made me think it was. Sandy,

CHAPTER TWENTY THREE
EOR a long moment after Jean
i had demanded that he explain
his deceit, Sandy looked at her
steadfastly. Then, when Jean felt
that she could not stand the 81
lence any longer, he slowly looked
away, and it seemed to her that an
expression of sadness and WEAKNESS
came over his bronzed face. He
patted her hand slowly, and at last
looked into her eyes again.
Il reckon I'd better tell you the
whole story" he said softly. I'D
intended to all along, but somehow
I just kept putting it off. It'd been
better if I'd spoken"
She waited, breathless, looking up
at him with that expression by
which girl unwittingly tells a
man, Please, please tell me some
sort of story-any sort of story
that can believe so I can stop

her hand gently.

Service In New York

Mr.. III. F. Eaton, former Morgan

ly with the soil conservation SER
vice in the Salt Creek watershed,
has been put in charge Of the eros
ion control division of the New

Gated at Bath, N. Y, the center of
the recent food area. In letter
he states: eve carried the children
out of the house in water knee deep,
and the water lacked about eight
inches of getting over the first
floor. l. know folks worried about
us, but we could get no word
through for days. The rainfall in
ten hours was eight inches"
Mr.. Eaton states that the erosion
control measures in operation in
New York, on the farms, in the re-
cent flood, were able to Withstand
the onslaught of the food waters
and protect farm lands and crops.
He concluded with the statement
that the disaster proves the absolute
necessity of methodicial long time
soil saving and erosion control pro-
gram, to protect the welfare of fu-
ture generations, and it is to be re-
gretted that soil and water conser-
vation practices were not establish
