At times Jerry would interrupt the game with an outburst of nerves and would climb the ladder toward the open hatch. Always and at once a marines bayonet would send him down again.
 If you keep that up," Cabell Banks complained irritably, they'll close the hatch. A little daylight helps"
 "Yes," Jerry agreed. But it seems like I've got to keep trying. Something drives me to keep try ing"
 "Why?" Cabell asked. What do you hope to gain?"
 My freedom Listen, Banks, don't mean to boast, but I'm a good swimmer. I'm one of the best swimmers that ever came out of Gloucester. It would be nothing for me to swim ashore now. Tomorrow may be too late"
 T disagree. Tomorrow would be better, because your head would be better healed. You've got nasty cut there, near the crown"
 That" said Jerry disdainfully. T tell you, Banks tomorrow may be too late. I believe we're get ting ready to sail. I know the signs. They're bringing on pro- visions. Sailors are coming on board. Listen, if you don't be- lieve mel"
 T believe you. All right, we're getting ready to sail, and I've got this to say about it - it will be better for you when we do sail. If you get your chance and try to swim for it, you'll be shot. It's that simple"
 T wonder you can be so recon- ciled to this floating jail!" Jerry exclaimed bitterly.
 Cabell Banks shrugged. T can afford to bide my time. I've got no fiancee who thinks I've de- serted her"
 In the long watches of several sleepless nights they had exchanged life histories; i'll assorted though they were, these condolences had given them admiration and respect for each other. Jerry knew the rich mans son to be brave, loyal, and shreWd; Cabell had discovered Jer- ry Whitfield to be brave, loyal, and obstinate. Both had streak o1 recklessness, but in Jerry it was fal more pronounced; he was in love and that state begets special form of madness all it's own.
 They were confined in the prison hold continuously except for half an hour day above deck for exercise. It had been so since their interview with Captain Steel That irate officer had no sooner recovered from the shock of theil insubordination than he had hac them returned to prison quarters with all privileges suspended.
 He called them the seagoing peasant and the rich Boston fool" and when he thought of the Bos- ton boys insolent boast that he would outfit a privateer against England and make the Gloucester sailor his first mate, he all but hac a stroke of apoplexy.
 Yet that order of his for 2( whip lashes on Jeremiah Whit fields barred back had not yet beer consummated Not yet

In the prison hold Jerry was looking upward toward the open hatch. "Listen" he said to Cabell Banks. Something's going on" They climbed the ladder, part way, to catch the sudden shouting in the forecastle. It was Jerry who interpreted it:

TIE treaty or SeVreS ndQ left - Turkey an emaciated state in il919-robbed of its Asiatic pos- sessions. Particularly did it gall Mustapha Kemal Pasha that the Greeks had obtained Smyrna, im- portant and historic Turkish port on the Aegean sea.
 So the blond, gray-eyed Gen. eral Renal set about fighting the wrong, as he saw it. Tn two years he had drilled 90,0O0 fanatical nationalists into an army. Defy ing the glowering of the Allies he marched these men against l50,- 900 Greeks. At the end of a years fighting he finally drove the Greeks into the sea, literally burned them out of Smyrna.
 By 1923 Turkey had won back most of it's lost territory and forthwith the now all-powerful Renal took office as the president of the first Turkish republic. He immediately abolished the Call iphate and removed Sultan Mo- hammed VI.
 Thence, began a series of re- forms that is still shaking Turkey into a modern state. Fezzes were discarded, women were unveiled and permitted to vote, a new all phabet was written, education was; made compulsory for those under 40, church was separated from state, buildings were modernized and good roads started across the nation. Meanwhile Renal had risen to supreme power. Soldier,

songs" the author says, Robert Cor.
don, for several years curator Of folk
songs in the Library Of Congress,
holds both that American folksong
examples are the greater In number
and also that folksong production is
more active in America than any
other country that Is preserving this
form Of literature -" likewise he as
serts that ballad making will continue
and that we shall always have the folk
to preserve them" Mr.. Gordon
speaks not only as q scholar but
as an experienced and successful
collector. Since the publication Of
Cowboy Songs" in 1910, interest in
American balladry has increased 100
fold-this Is shown by more than
100 ballad books in the Library of
Congress.
Alan Lomax was taking q course
in philosophy at the University OF
Texas when his father announced
that he was going ON . search for
more folksongs. So he threw phi
losophy to the winds for the time
being and just naturally hit the trail
and started on the trek with his
father. It Is in the blood.
THE sun Is sorta sinkin', and the
road Is clear,
An the wind is singin' ballads that
got to hear"
We wonder If you ever sat on the
hard baked clay by an old Southern
cabin and by the light of q smoky,
rickety old lantern ws+ched the
darkies throw the "honeys'' while they
half chant and half crooned, Sugar
Babe?" Here 1t Is:
Shoot your dice and have your fun,
Sugar Babe,
Shoot your dice and have your fun,
Run like the devil when the police
come. Sugar Babe"
Or watched a cock fight by the
glorious light Of the moon down in
old Mexico when the men sat around
the cockpit and in almost a whisper
droned an old Aztec tune; then as
the owner Of the victorious cock
jumped up and swayed to the rhythm
OF a Spanish dance every one
scattered in fear of the hand of the
law.
Over in the National Museum there
