Her assistant bed the shop had been stupid, cus- ‘tomers had been trying and none of jher wholesale orders had arrived for a house she was decorating. She made a dispirited way towards the {rooms she had occupied until a few ‘days ago. There, rising up behind the town, ‘was Upper Mallard bill, where Far- Tell Armitage had spent one of his early years. Somewhere in its folds was the terraced slope where the Lodelys had had their house and where she, too, as & very little girl, (had lived and played in the sun. Not for the first time she found! eclf, evcceseon itidd instructions to clean the house on the following daz and to keep the keys until called for.

She stopped under a © street lamp and scrutinized it A square envelope, expensively heavy and plain—she started and thrust it | into the other pocket. It was, of course, from Farrell Armitage. Well, he must wait—he must wait until! she had accom. | plished this urgent service for Judy and Mark. There was another street-lamp just ahead. She walked past it, ad- during herself not to stop, not to read the letter Farrell had sent her. She was not curious to know {ts con- tents. She had no time.... She | turned and went back to the lamp and opened his letter. “Dear Barbara, in my ignorance and general officiousness I had a couple of rooms fitted up for Mark the sight of which will, I fear, re | duce him to frenzy.

Besides, if-she did:go to London, there would be Miss Raoul’s com: mission first. ... She found that she had passed the garage where she must order a car to couvey the Lodely luggage to Toxeter. She had ‘to retrace her steps and order it.

She put on an old amock of Judy's and dragged the trunks from their dusty corners. She tackled Mark’s room first, but he had left very lit- Ue behind him. When things were in piace, she said good-bye to the room and went across to Judy's. Here there was more to do. Bar. bara, who bag known her so long, was appalled at the litter. Old scarves, old ckings, bits and ‘ends of ribbous—Barbara took upon herself to throw away at least half the accumulation. There remained now the two downstairs rooms’and the kitchen. we | Except for Mark’s books which had to be packed separately, there was little here belonging to eliher moth- erorson. A cigarette case of Judy’s day on the mantelpiece, Mark's gramophone was on a table. There was a battered darning basket. In the drawers of a desk there were some papers. ‘Without examining them, Bar bara lifted them out. She added to the collection some notepaper and @ fountain pen and then, on an im. pulse, sat down and wrote Farrel! Armitage that she was not free to come to London, The truck was due, but not yet in sight. Barbara decided to run cut and post her let- ter.

Seenes of the boat races filmed at Catalina Island and in the Los jAngeles Harbor show _high- powered craft pounding over the waves at close to 100 miles per hour. Cameras were mounted on epeedboats to follow the raeers, which gives the spectator the same effect as though he were actually riding in the race. Based on Rath Novel The picture is based on E. J.
