Green turtle soup from Key
West delighted 100 persons who
partook of the southern delicacy
at a dinner given in connection
with the annual convention of the
Southern Commercial Secretaries
Association, which was held at
Asheville, N. CT, June Is. Each
main Florida section was repre-
scented on the menu by products
for which the respective COM
munities are famous, and data
accompanied the serving of each
delectable dish. The green turtle
soup, which was put up in Key
West in the only plant devoted
exclusively to the canning and
preparation of the delicacy, was
given much praise. In letter
from A. A. Coult of Fort Myers,
he says: "The writer heard many
expressions of appreciation at the
Asheville conference last week,
and a vote Of thanks was offered
to the Granday Company, of Key
West, for its delicious contribu-
ton. / think most of the 100 din
ers at the meeting were surprised
to learn that the soup was put up
at Key West.

PROFIT SELLING IN
STOCKS HALTS' RISE
Three Weeks Old "Baby Boom"
Abruptly Checked, With Sharp
Losses In Some Fields

New York, July 11-(AP)-- The
stock market "baby BOOM, three
weeks old today, stubbed it's toes on
profit-selling, and in the resultant fall
suffered losses running to two or
more points. Aircrafts were an ex-
ception to the general list of casual
ties, but even the majority of these
was unable to remain far out in front
The let-down was accompanied by a
substantial decrease in volume. Trans
fers were around 100000 shares, the
smallest for a full session since the
sharp upturn began tune 20.
The news on the whole was no
worse than recently, and in some re-
spects was much better. But most
traders, believing that in line with
past performances, more thorough
corrective reaction" was still to be
witnessed, were inclined to cash in

ness. For some of the others, see
ing the girl they wanted to dance
with, having all her time taken up
by the same man, might get dis
couraged, cash in their tickets and
leave.
But this young man was red
haired with hard black eyes, and a
rather jutting chin. "Tm going to
dance them all with you or else,
he said stubbornly.
Noel didn't know what to do.
While they were dancing the first
dance together, she became sudden
ly conscious that he was looking at
her rather queerly. At last he said,
There's something very familiar
about you. If I didn't know it was
the craziest thing on earth, I'd say
that I'd met you at prom in
Washington and danced with you
| there"
THAT wouldn't be at all likely
Noel tried to say calmly. She didn't
remember him in the least, but
thought it was quite possible that
she had danced with him at a prom
in Washington. Of course she
couldn't remember even one-tenth
of the various young men whom
she met and danced with during a
social season.
But I still say I've seen you
somewhere" he insisted. And
then he added, drawing her closer
against him, Anyway, I've met
you now, and I'm ready and will
ing to make up all the time we've
lost. What about lunch tomorrow {?
And the afternoon, on the river :?
I've got my yacht anchored out
there, a nice little craft. You'd be
crazy about it. And there wouldn't
be any need for YOU to come back
here, E-you didn't want to-"
This was the first time a thing
like that had happened. Noeps
face famed with angry color. She
drew away from his arms. "I
don't think I care to dance with
you any longer" she said coolly.
She started over to a chair, but
at that moment Nick came up.
He said in his tight-lpped voice,
I'm going to ask you to leave. Mr..
Courtney. I think you have had a
little too much to drink"
"You know d "a. well better than

CHAPTER 8

NOEL HAD more invitations to
dance at the Peacock than any OF
the other girls. Sometimes two or
three men goOd-naturedly con-
tended for her dances, each Of them
holding a string of tickets. All the
time Noel was conscious of Luigis
pale eyes watching her from his
usual seat III the corner OF dlvan
at the far end OF the big room.
Occasionally when the contention
for her dances became heated in
stead of good-natured, Nick would
get up leisurely and stroll over to
where Noel stood, not knowing how
to settle me matter, and Nick
would decide who was to be her
partner with a curt wave of his
hand, not even saying word or
taking the cigar out of his mouth.
Long before it was time to close
the Peacock, Noel was conscious OF
WEAKNESS. She probably wouldn't
have noticed it so much, If she
hadn't been on her feet most of the
day walking about the city in con-
slant search of another job.
Laurie's warning about Luigi
had made Noel more determined
than ever to set away from here.
She hated the place enough as it
was, but with Lrigi's pale eyes on
her almost constantly, it was just
more than she could bear.
, Once tonight she found his eyes
upon her wearing a queer specu-
lative expression. The next thing
he had walked up to her and said
lin his low, secretive voice, 'Take
lit a little easier, baby. Sit out
some of the dances II you're
tired"
Never had Noel heard anything
that sounded more grateful to her
ears. But she was afraid there
was something behind Nick's I'M
usual thoughtfulness. She knew
the other girls danced when they
were asked, no matter how many
times that might be during the
evening. They had rests during in
termissions only. But the inter-
missions were very short, at which
time they were supposed to sit at
the tables and induce the GUS
toners to order drinks, which they
hardly had time to finish, before
the music started again. Another
one of Luigi's crazy ideas, Noel
had heard one Of the girls say
while in the dressing room.
But as yet Noel had not taken a
seat at any Of the tables and tried
her hand at coaxing the men to
order drinks. That was one thing
that she simply had not been able
to do.
During an internission while
Noel was sitting in one of the gilt
chairs against the wall, one of the
girls passed and stopped for just a
second. you'll be able to get away
with this as long as the customers
are buying long strings Of tickets
hoping to dance them all with you,
but even if you are so darn pretty,
you'll probably get fired. Nick
wants girls that can make the men
spend money on drinks, too" She
said it all in a whisper and hurried
on.
Something else happened at
Luigi's that night also which made
Noel feel uneasy. A young man
came up and asked Noel to dance
with him, exhibiting long string
of tickets, and said: Every one
of them is for dance with YOU"
"But that's against the rules"
Noel said quickly. She knew Nick
didn't like a girl to dance with the
same man more than twice in sue
cession. It wasn't good for bust
