There was a long moment of
silence. Allison was humming
softly to herself, Barry busy with
his troubled thought. It was
Renaldo who finally broke 1t, in
a low, peaceful voice.
II remember when first came
out here with your father. Miss
Topping. ! had done some legal
work for him in Puerto Bari0S
and because I was fastidious In
my dress, he felt was a flop. He
laughed at me when ! begged for
the opportunity to mango his
plantation. He said, The Jungle
would eat you alive"
Allison laughed. Exactly what
he wrote me-" she cried, when
I wanted to come down here after
I finished school,"

than my father so he would re-

RenaIdo's laugh held a deep note
Of warmth. "Ah, your father. He
was O wonderful man. ] have so
many memories Of him :"
That's more than ! have" said
Allison wistfully.
Then 1t will be my great
pleasure to share them"
Barry excused himself after q
while. He felt an outsider In the
intimate memories Renaldo was
revealing Of the last years of ALI
sons father. And the treacherous
weakness OF his fever was fasten-
ing on him again.
For q long time he lay awake
after he had gone to bed. He
could hear the murmur Of their
two voices, the blending Of their
sudden laughter. He wondered
what course the conversation had
taken. "I'll bet," he muttered to
himself irritably, she isn't talking
about her father nowI"

1T must have been very lonely

"Oh, I suppose 1t was. 1t Is
lonely for all Of US sometimes, no
matter where we are. But here
he was like an ancient ruler. He
had freedom and an independence
that many men In great cities
would like to have"
Barry couldn't help but notice
the intensity that burned In Re-
naldos dark, smoldering eyes
whenever he talked or looked at
Allison. He knew now why the
Spaniard, who only q few weeks
ago had been so anxious for ALI
SON to return to New York. was
encouraging her to stay on.
After they had finished their
meal Allison wandered out TO the
screend veranda. Sheer moon
light was flooding down like silver
dust among the towering trees.
Jungle sounds came softly through
the night the distant song Of a
bird. the sudden Swishing Of foli-
age as an animal stalked his prey.
The faint tinkle Of strings and the
smooth blending Of rich voices
carried from the natives estancias
out there among the Zapote trees.

Sterling Club
Hears Members of
State Legislature

State Senators Orr, B. G. Novak,
Milton Lightner and Representa-
tive Roy E. Dunn were the speakers
at the Sterling Club, last Friday, on
the subject of Procedures in Legis-
lation." In the Minnesota Legis-
lature Senator Orr, who is the ma
jority leader of the State Senate,
gave the principal address and
Hammond Turner presided.
After the legislators had finished
their talks the meeting was opened
for question. Rev. Clarence T. r.
Nelson, pastor of the CamphOr
Methodist Church and chairman of
the Twin City Equal Rights Bill
Co-ordinating Committee, asked
Representative Dunn, who is the
majority leader of the House, if he
would tell the audience who and
what was the opposition to the
Equal Rights Bill that was enacted
after a hard fight on the last day
of the session? James Hughes,
president of the Sterling Club, OBJ
jected to the question and did not
want Mr.. Dunn to answer it. "The
speakers are here to speak on gen
eral legislation procedures and this
question is too involved" Mr..
Hughes declared.
Mrs. Dwight T. Reed, Sr., pro-
tested and asked that Mr.. Dunn
be permitted to answer the question
if he would. Rev. Nelson, who is
not a member of the Club, arose
and said, 81 withdraw the question"
However, Representative Dunn an
swered the question in a fashion, by
asserting that nobody had anything
against "you" people, but certain
complications arose, etc. Maceo
Littlejohn, chairman of the Legal
Redress Committee of the st. Paul
Branch N. A. A. C. p, asked Mr..
Dunn what did he mean by "Com-
plications." Mr.. Hughes objected
to the question and Mr.. Littlejohn
withdrew it.
