The successive clues | lead them around the country- side and finally, to the ruins | of an ancient abbey.

Just then a terrifying voice booms out of the ecrie darkness—someone has | Dbeen watching Henderson’s love | making—and it is Ray.

Then the storm broke—She turn- ed upon him, obsessed by the thought of her during the past days. “Now, Ray Lowther, perhaps you will be good enough to explain what possessed you to leave as you did . .. " She was perilously near to tears and Ray, seeing it, said more gent- ly than he might otherwise have done. “You remember that 1. O. U. I gave Major Perkins?” She looked su ded, sitting very stiff and straight cn the &tool before the dressing table mirror. “Well, the only way I could think cf getting sufficient money to meet it was to wire Bill Foster, asking he turned to- |if he couidn't get me some extra| work with the sax. He replied tha one of his own men was away sick for a few days and to come right up and take his place.” A longish pause. Then she said slowly: “I see. So you left me {or your axophone. I fancy that it might have bheen more flattering had it been another woman.” “Good Lord, Barbara! Don't absurd . . . there was nothing it be to forget I offered—in fact, 4 arm dropped instantly. But Ray did not appear to enter into the joke. “It's obvious that you thought I was in town . . . ” he began. “Rot!” Henderson interrupted. “Hang it all, man, there's no need to look so surly about it. We're not living in a dark age, you know.” “Nor in a decent one apparently. But that, Barbara would xot stand for. “How dare you say that, Ray, | she flashed at him. “Besides, you !it never seems to interest you. Why! are making an absurd fuss out of nothing. We were out on a treas- ure hunt.” “Our host and myself seem both interested in the same treasure,” Ray said caustically. | The Britisher’s eyes narrowed and | Barbara had begun to be tright-‘I ened. Angry as she was with Ray, she dld not want a serious quarrel to| take place between the two men, | “you're behaving like two school- poys,” she told them angrily. “Stop quarreling and, instead, you might tell me, Ray, what you have been| doing these last few days.” | “I should prefer to explain tol you when we are alone,” he told her coldly. { She looked at him a moment and then started toward the autom biles and, after a perceptible hr tation, the two men fell into stepi beside her. i “T caught the 10:15 from Water-!| loo and was fairly late in reaching| the house,” Ray told her stiffly. “They informed me that you were| out on a treasure hunt, but when all the others had returned I began | to worry. I induced the boys to tell me where they had planted the | treasure and I thought I'd run over in the car and see if I could locate | you.” He paused amniously, and Bar-, bara hastened to maintain a bright, | agi- chatty conversation all the way to]| “Oh, Ray, I've been so lonely . i begged you to let me lend you the money.” “And you forget,” he replied harshly, “before we married, I stip- ulated I should maintain my inde- pendence . . . It's a death blow to a man's pride to have to look to his wife for every thing—evens for 'his gambling debts.” Her lips curled cynically. “Your pride, Ray—always your pride. 'What I suffer because of don't you tell me you actually en- joyed being away from me?” He sprang up off the bed and came towards her. “Well, I did, Barbara—I don't mean I enjoyed being away from you, but, it was, great tooting the sax again! Bill let me lead the boys in a couple of my own tunes. They went over big . Why, what’s the matter, Barbara?” for he cuddenly saw that tears were streaming down her cheeks. “Your music! your music!” she cried angrily. “It's all you care about. That I twisted my ankle and was laid up in bed for two days doesn't matter. Ray, I ought to hate you.” But that last sentence gave her away beautifully and Ray lost no time in taking advantage of it. He came towards her and, with a ten- der, knowing grin, he tried to draw her to him. “Barbara, come on, snap out of it. I'm sorry I hurt you—Will that Jof Sis And he bent forward and kissed her: At first she wouldn't return his kisses, but as he persisted, her lips gradually became soft and yielded.

I'm all eager to get to grips with the situation—fight my way through and make you proud of me. You'll help me, won't you, Barbara?” His eyes pleaded with her and there was a tremor of desperate earnestness in his voic “Yes, we can go back home, Ray,” she said, slowly, but as she spoke, she sighed faintly to herself. Already the splender of those last moments was marred ‘Why must he think continually of am- bition, of achievement? Why could he not be content with their love?

Fandom has associated the bally- hoo for 50 long with professional sport, especially boxing, that it has failed to note its application to the development of the gridiron game, when another year of bigger and better gate receipts is in pros- pect. The ballyhoo begins late in the summer as the “directors of public grinding out the copy that tells of the prospects at dear old Juniper College or Sunnyside University-by- the-sea. ~ Good old Joe Whoozis, the sensational halfback, is back after an industrious summer chop- lping wood, selling electric refrig- lerators or working on an asparagus farm.
