The new stations, supplementing the two ‘long-wave' transmitters at Hawali, will have an- tenna systems of the type classified as “high-angle radiation.” Radiation will be projected upward much the same as a shell is hurled from a long: range gun. 2xperiments produced the best results during the hours of darkness.

Had young Lord Dorminster been looking “into Joanna's face when he finished he would have been puzzled by what he saw. She had been fire white while he told her that “they” Wore saying she had stolen d Yvonne Coutant’s lovers. Slow! brown sheen of her eyes had crept back untll they were almost black. The round red lips had set in straight line. But Teddy didn't look at the girl beside him. The scho of his last words hardly had died when he went into a funk with himself. He looked straight ahead, between his mount’s ears, and inwardly cursed. Teddy Dorminster was not the kind to say that sort of thing about any- body, to anybody, much less repeat it |as the gossip of others. He was | sorry, and damned his lap: When he did glance, timidly, at Jounna her face had cleared, the brown had come back between her lids, and her Iips had relaxed. She detected his chagrin at himself and was conscious of his sldelong glance. In mute acknowl- edgement of both she reached across * riding crop and patted his ve lightly. came, just then, upon the ap proaclies to the little wooden shrine of St. Devote. By common Impuls and wordlessly, they pulled up their mounts. Dorminster held his hand for Joanna's foot as she stepped to the ground. He tied the bridie straps together and followed her when she strolled to u stone bench under a clus- ter of pepper tree: “I say!" he excluimed shyly, “I'm cut up, you know, about popping off like that! 1 shonldn't fouled Kenilworth, and as to Yvonne—-" | She interrupted him. “And I shouldn't | have asked you," she comforted him, “to tell me the things people are sa ing.

I'm vain and wicked and frivolous, you know, and I fancy vou think it would be sporting to take charge of me, who am all alone, and keep me out of the abyss His protests were hot at his lips, and his throat was crammed with thirgs he wanted to say. But her calm look invoked a sudden change of mood.

I'm honestly in love with you A whimsical smile played with the corners of her mouth. “I remember,” she said, “that you promised me that first day at Yvonne's that you would be awfully fond of me.” The smile disappeared and left her wistful. “And 1 remember, too, that you are the only one, Teddy, who has turned out to be just what 1 thought you would be. All "the rest are different from what I expected.” “Are you, too, different from what you thought you'd he?” She laughed ga. v, but all she said was: “Heaps!” 'After a while she nodded. “But we musn't reminisce, Teddy. It may transpire that some day T shall have nothing left but riminiscences. If that happens, 1'l want them all saved up. You'll be one of the best of them.” He caught her hand when she rose | 2nd held her. She did not draw aw but stood quietly, her eyes meetin; his. She was so close to him that he felt the warmth and tendernes of her and that she wa: breathl For one lrief ins brair: went into a riot and he was dt: When his head cleared he felt her crushed against him and realized thet it was his own arms that were helding her there, holding her so tightly that already her lips were pal- ing. He would have dropped his arms and released her, but she caught them and let him understand that she was yielding. She was even holding her pale lips to him. When at last she stirred he kissed her again and then freed her. Before she drew back she said to him: “I would like to love you, Teddy, and if T could I would. No one has ever said so fine a thing to me as you have—that you'd not only want me, but take me however I am. That is so different from being told that I'm wanted, but mustn’t be had! Il remember it, whatever happens.” Before they reached the gates of the Villa Amette grounds Jeanna brought his threat to do the sporting - with Kenilworth. “I'd rather you'd not tell him that I know what has been in the past between him and Yvonne,” she said. “It hasn't inter- ested me at all, you know.” Somehow, Teddy thought, it did in- terest her. He whs foolishly bitter about it and resentful, which he didn’t have a chance to show, however, be- cause they were turning into the villa path, and Joanna, with a flirt of her crop, broke into a final gallop toward the stables. Dorminster had all the English- man’s love for fine horses. He sel dom returned for a ride with Joanna— and these rides through the fragrant beauty of the Riviera hills were as frequent as she would grant—that he did not watch the grooms rub down their horses and perform the count- less little services which the British stable master finds as necessary to his charges as are the administrations of a watchful maid to the grooming of her dainty mistress. Both of the steeds they had ridden that morning had been his gifts to the Golden Girl, brought from the stables in Sus- sex he had inherited with his other fortunes. It was significant of him that while Roddy Kenllworth show- ered her with things made from dia- monds at every excuse for a gift that presented itself, and while Brandon, with a finer sense, found rare bits of bijoutiere for her delight, Teddy had made it horses with exquisite trap- pings coming along in periodical in- stallments.

When I came in your set was working loud and clear.
