CHAPTER EIGHT


Buenos Aires was so much
larger than Sheila had expected 1t
to be. Or perhaps it only seemed
larger after the long quiet days
and nights at sea. The arrival of
quarantine officers and doctor fol-
lowed by tn agent with the mail
was an exciting prelude to that
moment when the ship finally
locked.
Porters begging for business
ran along the aduana screaming
and smiling. One with a wooden
leg hobbled pathetically in the
rear.
Passengers whose friends and
relatives had been glimpsed in cars
first miles away at the narrow en-
trance to the wharf were rediscov-
cred now and began to call greet
ings.
The sonora who had been visit
ing in Rio stretched eager arms
toward her daughter and three
pretty grandchildren. There were
two men from Jim's company and
Olives friend and her husband,
both Americans.
All Alone
Sheila seemed to be the only
person on board whom no one
was meeting. The air mail letter
she had just received from her
father stating that Helen and he
were married contributed to her
loneliness.
At that moment she felt she had
no home but this snug little ship.
She did not want to leave it. What
was she to dc in this big, foreign
city alone?
Without saving word she slip
ped from her place beside the rail
and walked to the other side.
Berating herself for her weakness
but unable to keep back the tears.
What an i'll starred voyage this
must be to begin and end with
weeping.
Yet she had enjoyed every min
ute of it. The companionship
with Richard and Olive and Jim.
The innocent Irritation with Mario.
She was grateful that this side
of the deck was deserted so that
she would nave a chance to regain
her control unobserved but as she
stood staring disconsolately into
the hold she felt firm hand over
hers. Without appearing to notice
her tears Jim said, We'll, it's

A Gentleman Tips His Hat

Dear Mrs. Post: When one man
speaks to another man he passes
on the street, and the latter is with
a lady that the man alone doesn't
know, should he tip his hat and
does tip mean touch it or lift it
off?
Answer: He should take hold Of
it lightly by the brim and lift it a
little, or if it is a soft hat he lifts
ii by the crown.

NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-The chem
ical industry, according to current
reports from trade sources, is not
expected to feel any serious recess
sion this spring and may not notice
the expected ,letdown as much as
business as a whole.
E Orders have been falling of a

Increased buying from foreign
neutrals has appeared already to
some extent and is expected to
cushion any temporary decline in
the domestic market. New products
now starting production are also
expected to help maintain output

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS

With the presidential election
less than a month in the offing,
your inquiring reporter was in
terested in knowing whether the
school was Republican or Demo-
crat, so decided to have the
classes vote on whom they would
like TO have as the next presi-
dent of the United States.
The results are as follows:
The freshmen cast % votes for
Roosevelt and % votes for Will
kie; the sophomores cast Al
votes for Roosevelt and 80 for
Willkie; the juniors cast 20
votes for Roosevelt and 81 for
Willkie. The total votes cast was
Roosevelt, us; Willkie, 1913,
which makes it appear that the
senior high school is slightly
more Republican than Demo-
crat. We are all familiar with
the expression, GAS Maine goes,
so goes the nation" We are
wondering how safe we would
be in saying, GAS goes Hardin
High, so goes Hardin"
