Raleigh, May 25.-Although Cover

growing in informed circles here that

that State Senator S. Gilmer Sparger,
of Danbury, Stokes COUNTY, is in line
for the appointment as solicitor in

If Gwynn is appointed judge in the
new twenty-first district created by
the 1887 General Assembly, the gov

Standing on a vantage point of

that ne could find none, hence

cries of this quaint town. Then,
far to the left of him, on the peak
of the cliff, he saw a mighty palm
tree that fairly hid a tiny white
house in the shade of it's queer
ballet skirts. Beyond a doubt this
was the place he sought. He
walked up and down in front of
the retiring cottage. having a
growing conviction that no prac-
teal joker could live within it's
kindly walls. A little white
haired lady was shipping the
organdy-f1uted flowers, and she
alone was guarantee enough that
the people who lived there were
beyond heartless joking.

He mopped his perspiring brow,

body had not. He looked enviously
down at the curving stretch Of
beach below, where blue-green
waves were crashing on a sandy
shore. With a hasty glance
around, he started to break a trail
down the hillside, toward the se-l
clusion of the beach. Not a soul
was in sight, and he slipped behind
some rocks to strip for swim
Emerging in two seconds, he
plunged into the picturesque waves
to test their reality. A reassuring
cool shower slid over his warm
body, and he struck out powerful

followed by a mass of white fur,
splashing water, and the excited
yipping of a dog.

standing on the shore so ineffec-

thought, as he noted the adorable

sunshine frightened her short
curly hair. He started to swim

station the next day, but a cold
sober Borst greeted him gratefully
and began to outline his new
duties.
Sandy remembered the first time
he had entered the shining glass
cage to address the grinning, sput-
tering imicrophone. He'd felt rather
shamefaced to be aping the very
men he had termed human noise
boxes, and could not get the
knack of talking to an unseen
audience who might be cutting him

A food of hurt feelings submerged
him, then his pentup anger burst
forth and he determined to go to
La Cresta and meet face to face
the lady named Madden, whom ne
had known as the mythical Alicia
O'Day. There might be certain
satisfaction in telling such a per-
son his honest opinion Of her
thoughtless prank. But he had no
idea of the surprise that awaited
him under the peaceful palms.
Sandy arrived in the quaint hill
-oceanside town Of La Cresta,
and drew a reluctant breath Of de-
light at the sheer beauty of it. A
silver moon illunined the sparkling
crescent Of the ocean, and tall
palms were silhouetted on the cliff.
Only an occasional light glimmered
in the sleepy little town, and
Sandy drove into one Of the neat
little auto camps for which the
coast is famous. No chance to
satisfy his quest of vengeance now,
he decided, and he threw himself
on the bed and slept the balance
