ger, and secured a firm grip on
the deck rail with both hands. Tucu
and his men were still forward, ar
guing with the girl. Dick could hear
her high-pitched voice raised in
remonstrance.
IF you put foot on this deck,
I'll shootl" she was saying. "The
law allows it. You're boarding my
ship against my will"
Dick thrust his head above the
rail. The men hadn't reached the
deck yet, but were hanging over
the side, with heads in view. The
girl was facing them, with defiant
glitter in her eyes, and an ugly
looking automatic in one hand.
Tucu saw it and hesitated. Ordi-
narily he would break a woman
with as little conjunction as he
would a dog, and ride roughshod
over her opposition; but the one
facing him was no ordinary crea-
ture. She was cool and collected,
pointing gun at his heart with a
hand that did not tremble.
"Y'father asked us aboard, lady,"
Tucu replied after pause, an
insinuating pleasantly in his voice,
IAN we come because O. that.
Where's he gomez"
IT told you was In command
here" was the short, curt reply.
"That's sufficient. Now get back!"
Tucu glanced aft and then for
ward. where's the crew?"s he
asked, smiling.

Tucu Will Return,
Dick Predicts

We've got rid of them for a
time" Dick said, glancing in the
direction of the lugger, "but they'll
return"
She nodded, following his eyes;
then turning to him again, she
asked: "Were you with them?"

them"
She frowned and raised her eyes
inquiringly. "They picked me up
a few hours ago." he explained. IT
was about dead-been in the water
for four days and nights. When
they rescued me-" he added, smil-
ing at the recollection of it, II

help. Later I found out what they
were"
what are they?" she asked
quietly.
"Carib fishermen, beachcombers,
sea scavengers, pirates - almost
anything and everything"
II see," she murmured thought
fully. "Then you think they want
to steal this schooner"
''They took It for an abandoned
dereict at first" he replied truth
fully, land, of course, as such it
was their legitimate prize. They
were surprised and disappointed
when they saw you and your father
aboard it."

piled, "but when - when I ordered
them away, they didn't act as if-if

"But you said they were sea scaven-
gers and pirates" she added, nod
ding. II suppose that means they
intend to take the schooner any,
way, lawfully or unlawfully."
"I'm afraid so. Captain Tucu,

discouraged. If he's decided the
schooner's worth it he'll return lat

other reason for making second

"What is that?" she asked.
He laughed and shrugged his
shoulders. "For one thing he'll want

ing, and second to get hold of those
Jewels I told him about"

Captain Bedford
Babies Too Much

"Come aboard, mates!" he cried.
"I'll help we. It's a great prize
I've picked up-so much money
that don't know what to do with it.
Come aboard, an I'll show ye."
The game was up. The girl turned
Mortified gaze at her father, and
then swung back again just in time
to see Tucu make a leap for the
deck. AS if determined to punish
him for his audacity, she opened
fire at short range. With a growl
of pain, the half breed dropped to
the deck, with one arm limp and use
less.
Damn her. Break her neck,
Burley!" he growled.
But Black Burley had no inten-
ton of facing the gun pointed at him
now. He dropped out of sight be-
hind the bulwark, crowding those
back of him into the water.
She would have driven them into
their boat at the point of her gun
if the two, helped on deck by the old
skipper, had not attacked in the
rear. When she saw them running
toward her she gave little cry OF
alarm, and for the first time seemed
to lose her nerve.
Tucu raised his voice at the two
Caribs, urging them to the flank
attack. The crash of the pistol
had evidently stunned Captain Bed
ford, for he stood helpless and
amazed with mouth wide open.
Dick at this juncture decided to
cast his lot in with the girl. The
two Caribs had to pass close to
him. When the first came abreast
of his hiding place, he shot out a
leg and tripped him. The second
partly stumbled over the first. Quick
as flash Dick landed a blow with
his fist on the point of the mans
jaw, and completed the fall.
Both were armed with long
curved knives that for ugliness

Dick Goes to Aid
OF a Brave Girl

Dick caught the note Of alarm
in the voice. He gave a start and
glanced around him. The handful
of Caribs left on the lugger were
grouped forward, intently interest
ed in the schooner and the CONVEX
sation going on between the skip
per and the girl. No one paid the
least attention to him.
''If Tucu goes aboard" he NUT
tered under his breath. "I'll 60 too. I"
After more talk Tucu and his
crew made fast to the schooner and
prepared to climb aboard. "Stop!"
she cried. 81 forbid you coming
aboard"
my fathers not responsible for
what he says" she cut in sharply.
'I'm in command here, and / for
bid"
Dick didn't hear the finish of the
sentence. He had quietly dropped
over the stern of the lugger, and
was once more battling with his
old enemy-the sea.
Swimming slowly, with his head
low down in the water, and making
wide detour around the stern of
the derelict, Dick reached it with
out attracting attention. Nobody
on the lugger had noticed his de-
parture, and those aboard the
schooner were too interested in their
prize to give heed to anything else.
Dick climbed up the rigging hang
ing ever the side opposite the lug

The girl woman paled slightly
through her tan, but answered I'M
hesitatingly: "There's no crew
aboard. No one but father and me.
Now you know the truth"
1t was a bold challenge, deliv-
cred in voice that never quavered.
Dick smiled his admiration. She
was capable of handling the situa-
ton. He made bet with himself
that she would force the men back
through sheer will power and bra
vado.
But neither the girl nor Dick had
figured upon the craftiness Of old
Tucu. Anticipating some such hold
up, the half breed had been playing
for time until two of his men could
work unobserved along the side of
the schooner and climb up the rig
ging back of the girl. Neither of
them was aware of this until her
father, the demented skipper of the
schooner, suddenly turned up again
and announced his presence with
glee. He had seen the two Caribs
crawling up and instead of repelling
them he rushed to offer assistance.

Strategy Worked Where
Scolding Utterly Failed

A young matron we know was
worried about her nine-year-old
son. No matter how much she
scolded, he kept running about
with his shirt-tails Tapping. On
the other hand, her neighbor had
four boys, and every one of them
always wore his shirt neatly
tucked in.
Finally our friend begged the
neighbor to tell her the secret.
"Oh, it's very SIMPLE" she re-
piled. 81 just take all their shirts
and sew an edging of lace around
the bottoms.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1946-08-23

could recover from his surprise, he
relieved them of their weapons.
Then giving the first one kick he
ran in the direction of the girl, who,
with Tucu, had been watching him
with amazement.
Keep them coveredl" Dick
called. "I'll take care of these two.
Shoot the first head that bobs up"
Encouraged by the assistance that
had so micraculously come to her,
the captains daughter turned more
fiercely than ever upon the leader.
"I'll give you ten seconds to get
over that rail-" she said in men,
acing voice. eff you're not gone
by that time, I'll kill you like I
would dog"
Black Burley thrust head above
the bulwark. A bullet buried itself
in the woodwork so near that he
dropped out of sight again. "One!"
began the girl. "Two!"
Tucu growled and showed his
teeth; but his eyes were upon Dick,
whose interference had aroused him
to furious hatred. "I'll cut y'heart
out, y'traitor!" he breathed thickly.
"Three! Fourl" counted the girl.
At the seventh count, Tucu picked
himself up, slowly and painfully, and
made his way over the side. Dick
returned to the disarmed Caribs,
and with their own knives as weap-
ons drove them into the sea. When
they had disappeared, leaving the
deck cleared of all enemies, he hur-
ried to the girls assistance. She
was peering over the side of the
schooner to see if the crew were
leaving in their boat.
"Keep back!" Dick warned.
"They may shoot!"
She nodded and stepped cautious
ly behind the bulWark for protec-
ton. Dick glanced around for some
weapon. A loose spar, as heavy as
a man, and twenty feet long, at
tracted his attention. Picking it up,
he carried it to the side of the
schooner, and with heave threw it
outward so that it just grazed the
top of the rail.
1t rolled over with clatter, car
rying everything with it. There was
a growl and scream below that in
formed him his ruse had succeeded.
In its descent the long spar had
knocked three Caribs into the sea,
and falling on the lugger's small
boat nearly smashed the bottom out
of it.
Captain Tucu evidently decided
that retreat, until he could reorgan-
ize his forces and plan new at
tack, was the better part of wisdom.
He beloved a command to his
men to pull away from the schooner,
and few moments later Dick and
Captain Bedford's daughter saw the
boat returning to the lugger.
They remained motionless and ST
lent watching until the boat had
drawn off beyond pistol shot. Then,
as if drawn by common impulse,
they turned and gazed at each
other.
The girl was quiet and sober, her
eyes regarding him inquiringly, al
most suspiciously. There was no
hint of a smile on her face. The
events had tested her courage to the
breaking point, and the strain was
apparent in the fine lines drawn
around the lips and in the heavy
circles under her eyes.

FHR STORY THUS FAR.

EHE STORY THUS FAR:
After being adrift for four days on a
raft, Dick Jordan is picked up by a
small sailing vessel in the Caribbean
sea. The captain Is named Tucu, an
evil-looking balf-breed. Dick realizes
that he Is among men who are little
more than pirates. He invents a story
Of some struggled jewels, TO gain time.
He tells Tucu that these jewels are
attached to a float near the sunken
steamer. On the way to the area
where the steamer lies, they sight q

course to meet It. When they come close
to the drifting vessel, a man appears
on the deck and shouts to them In .

LEFT alone, an gone crazy. Pull
away!" he added, addressing the
Caribs at the oars.
The boat started in the direction
Of the schooner, but it hadn't COW
cred quarter of the distance when
another figure appeared on the
deck. If the sight of the old man
had surprised the boarding crew,
the second apparition-for it seemed
like an apparition to many, GER
tainly to Dick Jordan on the deck of
the lugger-created amazement and
CONSERVATION.
The newcomer was a woman,
lightly clad, and with her hair
streaming down her shoulders and
back, half way to her waist. She
had the appearance of one who has
been interrupted in the midst of her
toilet, rushing on deck to ascertain
the meaning of the commotion. She
glanced in the direction of the lug
ger, shading her eyes with one hand,
and then back at the old man on
the deck. She spoke to him in a
low voice, which he needed, for he
withdrew from sight, and permitted
her to do the talking.
"What boat is that?" she asked
in clear, bell-like voice.
Tucu hesitated for moment be-
fore replying; then in his most per-
suasive voice, he informed her:
"The San Miguel, Of Limon."
The girl or young woman-it was
difficult to estimate her age at the
distance, but to Dick she seemed
young and comely seemed in
doubt, hesitating before replying;
but her eyes were busy studying
the boats crew and the lines of the
;ugger. Finally, as if she had made
sip her mind, she retorted in a
sharp, peremptory way:
"Well, what do you want? You
can't come aboard!"
Captain Tucu smiled a bit craft
lily. ''We took her for a derelict-
abandoned"
"You can see now she isn't"
replied the girl quickly. Then, as
if anxious to pacify them, she add
ed in pleasanter voice: 'Thank
you for coming; but we don't need
any help. We can manage"
Tucu was little nonplussed, but
the grin hadn't left his ugly face.
"Y'can't get into port with that
wreck. Wen help y'ter rig her up"
''No, thank you," was the cool
retort. "We can manage"
The small boat had been drifting
nearer all the time, and as if
alarmed by this the girl added
sharper than before: keep away,
please! You'll get tangled in the
wreckage."
Tucu turned to his mate and ex-
changed few words with him, and
then addressed the girl again:
''Who's that old man aboard?"
She drew herself up and frowned.
"You mean my father, Captain Bed
ford?"
"Is he cap'n?" There was smile
Of derision on his face, which the
girl caught. Resenting it, she nod

was the cool retort, motioning to the
CaribS to dip their oars again,
"You can't!" was the frightened
reply. Hes not well, and has
gone below"

q. Now, Mr.. Anthony, what's your
complaint?
A. ] have no complaint. You're
mixed up.
@. Come, come, Mr.. Anthony,
there must be times when organ
music and poetry let you down a
bit.
A. Never. Give me a poem, an
organ and other peoples troubles
and I'm as happy as lark.
@. Mr.. Anthony, there MUST be
something bothering you like every
body else. Are you happy at home?
A. Certainly.
@. Well, 60 on in your own way
and tell the radio audience why.
A. On my program we only tell
why people are NOT happy at
home.
@. Why stay in a rut? Out with
it, when did your happiness begin7
In what quarrel did you first notice
| it?
A. I tell you, there was no quar-
rel.
@. No fights, no quarrels, no dis
sentions?
| A. None.
@. You mean to tell the judges
who have kindly come here tonight
to get little free publicity that moth
ing has ever happened in your home
that the radio audience should know
about?
A. l do.
A Judge: That's the old familiar
pattern by which so many mar
riages 60 on the rocks, my boy.
What you need is a good family
quarrel. My advice to you is that
you go home and try being very I'M
happy for change. 1t may make
new man of you.
@. Let's make out you are an
other case, Mr.. Anthony. Say, Case
3457289. That's the case that won't

A. l don't sit around all week.
Q. And, furthermore, when did
this woman desert you?
A. What woman?
! @. Please 90 on and tell us all
about it in your own way from that
point.
A. What point?
@. The point where you told your
father you wanted to play the ba-
zooka like other kids and he ordered
you out of the house with the baby.
A. You're all mixed up.
@. Now, Mr.. Anthony, remember
what you said at my office. You
said you were willing to take the
four cross-eyed sisters in to live
with you if the soldier would give
them name and wear shoes at

A. Could I read poem to touch

@. All the hearts in tonight's au-

DR.. Spotlight, what do you think OF

Judge Spotlight Coming out of a
trance): see no problem here at

three deaf aunts until their grand
father finishes his college course. II
will be time enough after that to
see about formal adoption. Further.
more, I think the boy who wants
to come home from the penitentiary
