were close on his heels when the town
constable and his volunteer posse
burst into the clearing.
Gary puffed up a hill, nearly ex-
hausted, and sat down to rest. For the
time being he seemed to have thrown
of the bloodhounds. Then he heard
them again. heard shrill voice shout
Justify that the quarry had been sight
ed. A pebble from slingshot hinged
by his head. Gary got up and ran.
DESCENDING the hill, he found
logging road winding along its
base. He turned right and moved at
a dog trot. He hoped the pursuers
would turn left. Things were getting
little too hot He grinned to him.
self. You sure found interesting things
in small New England towns If you
were curious enough.
Far, far behind he heard the shouts
of the posse. He increased his pace.
Presently the logging road gave way
to a graveled country lane. He turned
right again. slowing to walk. Sounds
of an automobile came from up ahead.
Gary stepped of the road and con-
cealed himself behind some brush.
The automobile approached slowly.
It was a roadster with a single occu-
pant. The occupant was a girl. Miss
Bowland She kept looking from right
to left. When she came abreast of
where Gary was hiding she stopped
the roadster.
Come out Of there" she said Your
tracks are plain as day in mud
caused by last nights rain"
Gary emerged, looking sheepish. but
grinning cheerfully Hello" he said.
You get the reward. I'm tired of
running. Rush me to the lookup so
there won't be a lynching"
Get in here" Gary got in. Miss
Bowland was very serious. Instead of
turning around. she continued along
the gravel road. After a mile they
came to concrete highway. She
turned left and headed away from
town. Presently they came to rail-
road junction Get out" Miss Bow
land said. There's a train in half
an hour I'll ship your luggage"
But look here" Gary expostulated.
II mean, can't we talk this over?" He
was eager.
NO" said the girl, 1--WE can't. I'm
letting you go because we've enough
nuts back in town. Another in the
jug would give the place bad name
Besides" she added, and for the first
time she smiled, today is Saturday,
not Sunday"

and on page II he found that, back
IN the late 7Os. law had been IN
corporated into the town code Whereoy
II was unlawful to kiss your wife or
any other woman on Sunday. Gary
was a bug on these archaic laws. he
decided to put this one to the test.
He knew lust the girl he would kiss.
She was a redhead with blue eyes
and a lovely mouth. She, apparently.
was also staying at the inn, but she
must have come there for the quiet
atmosphere, for all Gary's attempts to
strike up an acquaintance hadn't been
successful.
Gary found the redhead on the wide,
tree-shaded veranda, reading book,
Without preamble he approached and
said: Miss Bowland, I am going to
ask your help in very serious mat
ter. Perhaps you don't know 1t, but
am a nut on archaic laws"
IT didn't know you confined it to
archaic laws" said Miss Bowland.
"Ahem," said Gary. "You have
law in this town prohibiting men from
kissing women on Sunday. Now I am
going to kiss you and then am going
to hunt up the town constable and de-
mand to be arrested. Naturally, he'll
want to know the charges, and can
imagine his expression when I tell
him."
And forthwith Gary kissed Miss
Bowland smack on the mouth. and
liked it. Miss Bowland obviously did
not She rose from her chair and
smacked Gary in return, also on the
mouth, but with her open hand.
You will not have to hunt up the
town constable" she said Here he
comes now. He is my father. Father"
she called, "help!"
X X X X
THIS was turn that Gary did not
- expect. He took one glance at the
approaching constable and decided
that We arm of We law might consider
the charges were adequate, and ac-
tually clamp on the bracelets.
Forthwith Gary cast one grleved
look at Miss Bowland, vaulted the
wide, tree-shaded veranda railing and
sprinted for a nearby patch Of woods.
Behind him the town constable yelled,
"Stop that man! Stop him. I say!"
Two golfers looked up from their
game. saw running man and a pur-
suing officer and decided it was their
duty to join the chase
Catching his second wind. Gary put
on speed across the field, and discov-
cred he was treading on some young
strawberry plants. Almost at once he
heard the enraged shout of farmer,
