In a flash the trembling had ceased and he had be- s like powerful mag- g him. It was as if that single, jous glance of his had in motion hidden machinery of whose power and possibilities he was wholly ignorant. Across the carpeted floor he Watched yellow curtains flapping against a dress of polished satin-wood and his drifted back lnla night in verner's 3 when other curtains B v against an overturned table and he had seen the first victim of Ahlborg's Pocket Death. It was simple for Marney to suggest an intrigue with Ahlborg’s bewitching friend. Without the exchange of a gingle word he was more than halfway toward that goal now—and. yet he was neither triumphant nor elated at his guccess. These people with whom he was dealing were not ordinary people: The Lizard an expert in crime, Ahlborg an expert chemist. With these accepted facts in view. he had no reason to suppose that Mafalda Pasquali was any less an expert in her particular sphere of operations. He paced the room restlessly for some moments, with the pipe between his teeth and the match still unstruck. It was his job to cultivate the friend- ship of Mafalda, he told himself. It v stion of unfaithfulness to Greta, but a_definite move toward a definite end. He tried to persuade him- self that the task did not appeal to him, that he had agreed to it because there was no other alternative, and that he Fs strong enough to extricate himself when the crucial moment arrived. And yet., somewhere behind all this there jurked an element of doubt. The eyes of Mafalda Pasguali were distinctly dis- turbing, completing as they did a pic- ture with whose loveliness he was al- ready impressed. Tt was approaching 10 when he cross- ed the road by the bridge which led from the hotel to the Casino itself and entered the gardens which decorated the cliff-edge. Dimly conscious of a firmament of twinkling stars, of colored lamps lining an asphalt path through shadowy foliage, of the seething of water among rocks somewhere below, he made his way in the direction of a wide entrance hall and the strains of a dance orchestra. Under a domed roof on a polished floor bounded on two sk by tall, plate- glass windows a dozen couples were dancing, with eight or ten others look- ing on. He paused on the threshold, fingering | INSTALL His first survey of the gathering fail- ed to reveal the face of a single soul he w even by sight.

A | youth who was obviously Englsh swept ]_l;as( him, partnering a flapper with ugly 2s. A light hand fell on his arm and a voice that was strangely familiar breathed in his ear. “Ma foi, but it is surely the fair the train! You remember Dighton turned. He renfembered her quite well. It was Mile. Rollin, the bird of passage, looking more artificial and more radiant than ever. He wondered what had happened to Blythe. “How d'you do?” he murmured, and stuck both hands in his pockets. A re- newal of their brief acquaintance did not appeal to him vastly. “Oh!” pursued the siren; “but you will dance with me? It is too absurd. There are not enough men here, you know, and the orchestra is really play ing quite well.” Dighton capitulated. “You were oo proud to take the little bus from the station,” insinuated Mile, Rollin as they danced. “My friend and 1 saw you walk into a taxi like a grand duke nd the little American has left you?

Col. Louis C. Brinton, jr., former adjutant general here and instructor at the last encampment, has recommended to the commanding general of the 3d Corps Area, with headquarters at Baltimore, Md., that the same units participate in training together during the encamp- ment in 1929, Col. Brinton says that it is believed desirable to add the regimental head- quarters companies for participation in a command post exercise if it is found feasible to so co-ordinate the training in the two States and the District of Columbia as to permit the participa- tion of these headquarters companies :luring the second week of their train- ng. He further says in his report that the objective to be obtained for these units in the next training camp is thorough training in such subjects as cannot well be given in the armory drill period. In the 24-hour command post exercise, he says, the maneuver was a distinct suc- cess, and a marked improvement over a similar exercise held in 1927 was shown. He reported to headquarters | that the exercise represented a natural operation against a hostile force, and was carried out by combining the units in camp, with the exception of the colored troops. The problem, he con- tinued, contemiplated the invasion by the 29th National Guard Division, as a flank division, of an invading corps, moving into position, attacking and withdrawing. The entire division net was laid down to include brigade head- quarters, division and brigade observa- tion posts and the headquarters of the Engineer Regiment. A corps command post, the forward and rear echelons of the division command post and the brigade command and observation posts were established by units responsible for such establishment, and the exer- nothing approximately 200.

You must find some one in the hotel who will introduce you. After that, perhaps, we can dance sometimes——" “What was that?” she demanded breathlessly, Dighton listened. “The water against the rocks,” he answered presently. She was trembling from head to foot. “It was something else,” she insisted. “I heard a pebble fall on the stones outside. Some one is coming down those steps. It is Karl, perhaps, come to look for me. Dio! this is terrible. Dighton sprang to his feet. Her sudden outburst was unsettling, but he did not believe there was any one_there. “I'll go look,” he said. “You must go, in any case,” she whispered. “Go back to the ballroom, I will follow presently. Whatever hap- ;fil“. you must never let him sus- The words faded from her lips. A shadow blocked the entrance to the narrow recess, but it was not Ahlborg's. Instead of the towering form of her lover, there loomed the dapper figure of a man in a belted coat.

In these two subjects, the report states, it was the equal, if not the superior, of any of the four Infantry regiments of the 29th Division. The inspector also reported that the unit is commended upon the appiication of its technical training to the construction of concrete steps, bridges and roads within the camp area which are of permanent value to the camp. In sending the report to the regiment, Gen. Stephan said that he was pleased with the application and effort of the officers and enlisted men of the regi- ment during the fleld training encamp- ment, which warranted the commenda- tions and added his commendation to that of the inspecting officer for tha splendid work done at Camp Ritchie.

Elsa Louise Raner has reopened her studio, at 1332 Fifteenth street north- west, after a vacation spent in a motor tour of Maryland and Virginia. Lisa Gardiner has just returned from Europe and will open her studio with Paul Tchernikoff October 1. Miss Gardiner spent a week in London, where she had the honor of taking tea with Mme. Anna Pavlowa at her home there. Mme. Pavlowa is extremely in- terested in the future of dancing in America and told Miss Gardiner that she deeply regrets the eccentric trend it is beginning to follow. From London, Miss Gardiner went to Paris to work with Alexandre Volints Mme. Pavlowa’s former part- ner, B:fi"fihe spent the rest of the Sum- mer in Seville, Spain, where she added several new Spanish dances to her repertoire. During_ the coming Winter, Miss Gardiner and Mr. Tchernikoff expect to give several informal recitals, assisted by some of their more advanced pupils. They will feature the new Spanish numbers and also some unusual inter- pretations of negro spirituals. Miss Gardiner has brought back some modern Spanish music, the work of Joaquin Turina, which will be used on different programs. Ethel Lynn Fast is singing at the Third Christian Church in the absence of the regular soloist, Ethel Holtzclaw Gawler. Elizabeth Carpenter has returned from her vacation, which was spent in Asheville, N. C., and has reopened her piano studio for the season. Stewart Dickson has returned to Washington after three months spent in studying piano under the famous French master, Isadore Philipp, at the conservatory in Fontainebleau, France. Mr. Dickson enjoyed an afternoon’s visit at the studio home of Mme. Wanda Landowska, the great harpsichordist and authority on ancient music, where Mr. Dickson was privileged to watch (\ ~d some lessons and also was & guest at tea. Mr. Dickson has reopened his studio at 1435 Park road northwest and resumed his position as director of music and organist of Columbia Heights Christian Church. R. B. Chopin Keith has returned from her vacation at Blowing Rock, N. C. Peter Pan Troubadours is being reorganized for the season with an interesting program of tours of Wash- inglon. Last June the club was the guest of Father Torndorfl at the seismograph station in Georgetown. Similar visits will be made this year. The new musical organization, known as “The George Gaul Orchestras and Bands” established Washington offices at 1366 Otis place northwest, under the managing directorship of George F. Gaul. For the past 12 years this organization has been furnishing music for the many leading social functions in Baltimore and has engaged in similar activities in Maryland generally and nearby States. The National Brass Quartet, Wash- ington String Quartet, George Gaul Attractions, George Gaul Music Studios are all connected enterprises here and in Baltimore. william H. Taylor, director and or- ganist at All Saints' Episcopal Church, Chevy Chase, Md., has returned from his vacation and resumes his activities for the season today. The double quartet is composed of Emily Harrold and Bertha Gottsman, sopranos; Cecile Sale and Nellie Moran, altos; James Nicholson and C. F. R. Ogilby, tenors, and Robert Davidson and William Waters, basses. The quartet of Trinity Methodist Episcopal Church, composed of Helen Virginia Hammersla, _soprano; Ruth Fisher, alto; Guy Skinner, tenor, and Albert’ Perry, bass, under the direction of Emma Louise Thompson, also organ- ist, sang last Sunday for the first time this_season. Mr. Perry joins the quartet this sea- son, filling the vacancy caused by the resignation of Fred J.

The club is sponsoring a class in ad- vanced theory and any alumnus inter- ested is cordially invited to communi- cate with the secretary, Charlotte Klein, 3217 Wisconsin avenue, Cleveland 342. An informal musical evening was en- joyed at the Brookland home of the Misses Howe when the following artists contributed a varied program: Comdr. Dodd and Lieut. Fielding of the United States Navy in guitar and mandolin duets; Mary Helen Howe, coloratura so- prano; Irene Chainey, pianist; Willard Howe, reading, with musical settings; Sam Wardell, violinist, with Frances Thorne as accompanist, and Norman Daly, pianist. Certainly the native Ha- waii music as played by Comdr. Dodd and Lieut.

Plans are organized to make the Music School a strong feature of the year's curriculum. ‘The Music School is divided into two departments—voice and piano and pipe organ. : The vocal department is under the direction of Fannie Shreve Heartsill, noted vocal teacher of Washington and New York City. Mrs. Heartsill has been heard to advantage in concert and ora- torio work in various musical centers throughout the United States. Students will be received both for class work and for individual instruction. Advanced students as well as beginners will be taught here. Technique is developed in class according to the need of the stu- | dent. Special attention is given to | phrasing and interpretation of sacred | music and to chorus directing. | The department of piano and pipe lorg.n will be headed by James L. McLain, jr. Individual instruction will be given to beginners as well as to ad- vanced students. Special attention is | given to sacred music, to hymns and church service playing. Advanced com- positions by the best composers are | studied. The student is led to the com- | positions of Guilmant, Mendelssohn and | Bach, which meet the technical de- ‘mands of pipe organ playing. The Blossom's Secret. The secret of the plant and its blos- som in making use of the rays of the sun and turning it into energy is one which man could make excellent use of if he could discover it. It has been estimated that there is about one horse- power of energy in the heat of every square yard of sunlight in the middle latitudes, if it could ke transformed without loss into mechanical power. But coal and oil give us only a small percentage of the sunlight expended upon them. We have learned how to collect a certain amount of the sun’s energy and direct 1t to our purposes in_solar cookers and engines, but not well enough to use the power in competi- tion with fuel and waterfalls. If we were able to get two or three times the energy from sunlight that we do now, we would have source of power which would- in time supersede all known sources. L e $100,000 to Fight Flies.
