sir" John said hesitantly, wanting
for David Graham's sake, as well
as his own, to get on with the inter-
view and have it over. The older
man appeared to be as embarrassed
as he, John, felt. He sat forward in
his chair, his tall well-groomed fig
ure fixed in an uneasy attitude.
"For falling in love with my
daughter?" A twinkle of humor
shone through the lenses of the Ok
ford glasses. 81 should have ex-
pected you to apologize If you
hadn't"
The twinkle in the gray-blue eyes
was reassuring. John realized,
gratefully, that Gays father, what
ever embarrassment he suffered,
bore no resentment against him. The
constraint lessened a little. David
Graham leaned back in his chair.
John Lit a cigarette.
"I meant an apology for my share
in the great deal of-unpleasant-
ness" he said, smiling.
"It's pleasure to meet someone
who employs the use of understate-
ment." Gays father returned the
smile. "The only apology you owe
me, personally" he went on, sis
for making me rush home from Lon
don before I'd had a chance to bid
on painting very much wanted"
"I'm sorry about that, sir" John
was beginning to understand the
lifelong friendship between this man
and his Uncle John. He even felt
that he understood why Kitty Schuy-
Ter, at eighteen, had married him.
perhaps 1t is who owe you an
apology" David Graham said, pres
emily. "Gay calls my attention to
the fact that I, originally, was at
fault. invited John Lawrence to
be her godfather. Of course had
no idea that the nephew he spoke OF
so often was going to grow up into
a menace, or I should have made
other arrangements"
"Gay has told you," John said,
"that our meeting at the cabin was
not pre-arranged?"
"But it was pre-arranged, wasn't
it? Yes, Gay has told me. / refer
to the arrangement John Lawrence
made. No one ever suspected him
of his genius for pulling strings. He
had it, though, to remarkable de-
gree. I remember when we were in
college"
He went on to speak of Johns un-
Gle who had been his friend, quietly,
appreciatively, in pleasant, UNI
hurried voice. The anecdote he told
was familiar to John. Though he
gave the appearance of listening in
tently, his mind was occupied with
the task of fitting together from
what he had heard of him, from
what he had observed, clear UNI
derstanding Of Gays father.
AS he thought of her, he heard
her voice.
"Are you getting along, you two?"
"Splendidly," her father said.
"Have you been telling John dis
graceful episodes in my past?" She
came toward them, walking quickly
and lightly through shaft of sum
light, touched Johns arm in pass
ing. went to sit on the arm of her
fathers chair.
"The young are self-centered,"
David Graham said. 'No, my dear.
I've been talking about the days
when was young and not so hand
some. I've enjoyed it but John has
probably been bored"
"Not at all, sir" q

Strange Facts
Double Risk
] Utter Silence
. Pooling Death .

d Some South American tribes
have amusing laws on personal
injury compensation. For exam
pie, if a burglar should fall off a
wall and get hurt while attempting
to rob another's domicile, the inno-
cent man must pay damages be-
cause it was his property that was
responsible for both the burglar S
presence and his accident.
q Probably the oldest of the 10
buildings occupied by the national
bureau of standards in Washing
ton is the soundproof reverbera-
ton chamber, where acoustical
building materials are tested for
sound absorption. No one is al
lowed in this chamber during a
test, the motors, loud-speakers
and microphones being operated
from, and all records transmitted
to, an adjoining building.
d An old custom, still existent
among many primitive peoples, is
to change the name of very sick
relative in the hope that it will de-
ceive any messenger of death who
might be looking for him.-Col-
lier's.

Sunken Treasure

Because there is no property
right in oceans, it is widely be-
ieved that anyone is entitled to
hunt and keep the countless mil
lions of dollars of treasure lying
in sunken ships, says Golfers.
However, this is not true as the
underwriters become the sole legal
owners of these wrecks and all
contents on the day the insurance
is paid.
