When the door bell sounded she
sat up quickly. Garry might be
coming back. The bell gave a
long ring, not three short ones.
She sank back. Of course it
couldn't be Garry. How swiftly
some little thing could bridge the
void from heaven to nothing. At
last she picked up the courage to-
speak through the speaking tube.
It was Jack Metcalf.
"Busy?" he asked.
"Y-yeS."
"Alone ?"

'No, Jack, not tonight. I'm

She would weep or scream or

Already was ravaged waste.
She hung up the small receiver
of the speaking tube. But Jack
came anyway. He rang the JAM
itor's bell and was admitted.
Barbara was aware Of her red
nose and eyes, and the tears on her
lashes. Jack did not smile. He
spoke simply. "You were crying.

CHAPTER 20

TT SEEMED to Barbara, as she
watched Garry, standing so still at
the window, that all time had
stopped. There was neither yes
terday nor tomorrow. There was
only this minute when her world
would crash-when its towers
would tumble and Paradise would
be gone. The fear that had been
in her heart grew bigger and big
ger until it seemed that she could
not hold it, but it would come from
her lips in a swift cry in another
moment.
Then Garry turned and came
nearer. His eyes were sunken and
his face was weary. His voice was
old when he spoke.
Barbara, I feel like the worlds
worst rotter." Now she knew that
she had been moving toward those
words for days. Hang it all, I've
fallen in love"
When she didn't answer, because
there was nothing she could say,
he hurried on: II mean with some
one else, Barbara. I didn't want

YAK0BI ISLAND NICKEL TO GET
 FURTHER TESTS
Official Going to Property to Take Out Milling
 Samples

The immediate future of nickel mining in Southeast Alaska ap- pears to hinge on trip to Yakobi Island being made by John Borden, prominent sportsman and official of the Nickel Corporation of Am erica.
 Borden arrived in Juneau on the Columbia. Carl Dreutzer, President of the Nickel Corporation of Am erica, in company with Dr. Edson Bastin, prominent geologist, took samples of nickel claims held by the corporation on Yakobi Island last July.
 Our samples then, were too small to tell much of a story" Borden said today. Carl Velve- sad, who located the claims with his brother Sverre, is at the prop erty now and with a crew of men will blast out several tons of ore. I'll take about ton of the ore for mill tests"
 Assays this summer were not as high as expected, Borden said although he said he believed they still were high enough, as far as profitable mining goes
 Mineralogists expressed opinions that this summers samplings were in rock exposed to weathering and unfaithful ill assay, which determ- ined Borden to make this trip to gain more adequate samples.
 As to how soon operations might be expected should assays be fav- orable, Borden said probably in the spring
 He said enough ore was blocked out to begin milling immediately without drilling, and that the drill ing program could progress with milling. Size of the milling unit, should operations be begun, was estimated by Borden at about 800 tons"
 Borden will fly to Yakobi Island Friday. He is a guest at the Gas | tineau Hotel.

 Glad to be back?" asked Hoff man. T wouldn't trade a mile of Alaskas rainiest beaches for the whole shebang back there. I told a Canadian barber that when he started praising Alberta and he didn't like it."
 5000 in Shoot Camp Explaining the shoot, Hoffman said about 5000 persons were at lhe camp, including all observers and shooters.
 The Army and Marines deserve a lot of credit for that meet, |" Hoffman said Nobody but them could have managed it the way they did It was as efficient as clockwork. Nearly 2,000 men a day would shoot, and they had one cafeteria building there with four individual cafeterias in it. They served a couple of thousand every meal there
 Every shooter had an Army or Marine observer and scorer. The thing went as smoothly as could be imagined, and a couple of hours after the shoot was over on Sep tember 10. the Army had moved the whole camp and left our stuff piled in the middle of the field"
