PACKARD PO Cooecoaasecseseccccesscoseecssessenssesocccens SYNOPSIS: Colin Hewitt, call- Mmself ‘Donald Howard, is @bout to laud at Cap a VOrage, on the north shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, He has asked about Joo Lazarre, to whom he must deliver a@ mysterious letter, and Germaine remblay, another passenger on ihe little Steamboat, does not know im. But she tells Colin of a club not jar away, where Lazarre might live. Colin is in from the Maak, New York gangster, and the situation is futther complicated be- cause Lazarre ia in the employ of the Mask. | \ Chapter 13 ; CAP A L’ORAGE ‘HE club is about eight or nine miles by water farther on down ‘the coast,” Germaine went on, “at | Riviere des Cascades, a salmon river, Amillionaire from New York, named Kenniston, bought it some years ago and built what he calls his fishing club there.” Something unpleasant flashed through Colin’s mind. “Kenniston?” he asked, “‘Waldrow Kenniston?” “Yes,” Germaine replied know him, then?” “No,” he answered. the name, that’ him, of course.” She shook her head. “You “I’ve heard all, But you know Germaine wae abso: _ “T've-never even ‘seen him,” sho said. “They don’t depend on the canned goods on Madame Frénier’s shelves, and they never come to Cap & V'Orage. They. have several big power boats that ferry them back and forth between the club and the Gaspé coast where they can get fresh supplies direct by rail—even from New York. “I think Father was called down there once professionally, Anyway, T'll ask bim if he knows whether there is anyont by the name of Lazarre there. And anyway, whether he does or not, though there is no road overland, there would be nothing to pre you from going down there by motorboat to inquire for yourself.” “In that jolly little one of yours then, perhaps~~with you?” “Oh!” she mocked demurely; and then brightly: “Why, of course! Why nob—some afternoon? But I must fy now! Look! We're almost in at the wharf, Those finishing touches, you know.” owned @ salmon river and had built & place down here! It was quite true, as he had just told Germaine Tremblay, that he did not know Kenniston personally, but he knew, or least had heard, quite a lot about the other=-not to Kenniston’s credit, In the clubs mostly. He searched back in his mind now, mustering al! he knew about Ken- aiston. Kenniston was still a young man. He was a plunger. Six or seven years ago he had inherited a fortune from his father, In short order he was on the verge of ruin. Then three or four years ago he! had blossomed out into full flower again, with apparently more money at bis command than ever. Colin laughed shortly to himself. Suppose it should turn out that Latarre was a frequenter of Kennis- ton’s “club”? The Bonaventure’s whistle boom- ed out raucously, Colin went down #o his cabin to look after his gear. a oe ’ Today’s Horoscope; e eo . Again we find a nature that is idealistic, in from yesterday! with less imertia, but needing a good training to hold the fortune that may come to it under favor ing aspects.

For three days follow ing the afternoon of Colin’s arrivat the weather had been unsettled and stormy, keeping him indoors except when, taking advantage of a few short-lived bursts of sunshine, Ger. maine Tremblay and he had gone for walks together, He had spent a great deal of time at Dr. Tremblay’s house, otherwise the days would have been ones of unutterable ennui. was.. He struck°a match, cupped his hands against the wind, and lighted a cigarette—his eyes on the girl in the stern of the motorboat beside him, who at the moment was bend- ing over the engine with an oil can in her hand. He wished he could write her into a book and really picture her as she was; but his pen always stumbled over a girl—and so did his tongue. He always addressed her sedately as Miss Tremblay, but he always thought of her as Germaine. He wondered if she, who always called him Mr. Howard, would like the name! His eyes roved over the little craft~an open launch, save for its decked prow, under which one could store perishables in wet weather, or even manage to crawl in uncomfort- ably oneself if one were concerned rbpel: ir ee engings ©“ only with a dry skin and not with the handling of the boat, ‘HB ‘was still absorbed in. the en- gine. His thoughts harked back over the last three days. Dr. Trem- blay was quite on his feet again— so much so, that he and his sister were planning a little recuperative trip over to Gaspé and then by motor around the peninsula, when the Belle Fleur, that made some of the south shore ports, came in tomor- row. Colin liked Dr. Tremblay. Men- tally he pictured the other now: @ man of perhaps sixty with iron- gray hair, slim, unostentatiously partieviar about his dress and ap- pearance—-and always an air of courtliness about him that made one think of the-manners of old France. And Madame de Courval, the doc As it | f THE KE SPORTS 'Y WEST CITIZEN | } bi ‘UPPER DIVISION TEAMS WIN AGAIN PIRATES AND SLUGGERS AND TROJANS; HITTING PLENTIFUL YESTERDAY (By JOVE) Well the Pirates and Sluggers did it again. Playing against the Trojans} and Fenix, respectively, they won! 14-7 and 8-2 in yesterday’s league doubleheader, The Trojan-Slugger fracas was a seesaw contest. In the first in- ning, the youths’ team scored once. Then the Sluggers came back and scored four times and twice again in the fourth. The IN LEAGUE GAMES| EASILY WIN FROM FENIX Washington { Detroit - Trojans put one over in the third, one in the fourth and then broke} lJoose with a four run rally in the sixth, tying the score. But when the lucky or unlucky seventh, as Sluggers had tallied seven times on a galaxy of Hits, errors and fielding broke that inning and spoiled a game that might other- wise have gotten exciting. Baker was the hitting star of this game with three safe cracks, In the nightcap, it was too much Pirates again. Besides win- ning every game they have played | this season so far, they secured the services of two more sterling players. A former shortstop of the Fenix and the speed ball artist and slugger, Quintan Lopez, were seen in action in their line- up. Fans were surprised, there- fore, when the tail ending Fenixers held them to an 8-2 victory. Acosta and Carbonell each got four Lhits out of five times up. M.!

Ed. Chapman, fast ball pitcher, started off for | Washington, and the Athletics feasted on his offerings for four ‘runs in the second, including Jim- j mie Foxx’s thirty-first homer, jand were well on the way to an- ‘other quartet of runs in the third ; when he was yanked to make way for Pinch Hitter Thomas. The New York Yankees nosed out the Red Sox with the aid of three Boston errors, some timely} hits and George Pipgras’ wildness in the early rounds. The Yanks seared the winning run in the sev-! enth when Buck Walters fumbled Tony Lazzeri’s grounder, letting Lou Gehrig score. “The Detroit Tigers took both contests in a double bill with the Cleveland Indians, thereby climb- ing into the first division and! shoving the Indians back into fifth place in the American League standing. Charlie Gehringer got a home run in each game. The Chisox and the St. Louis Browns took one apiece in their double fracas. The @.ening game went eleven inning and was cap- tured by the Sox. George Blae- holder held the Cl¥cago club to four widely scattered hits in the concluding tilt.

Then too, the Funeral Home will be much weakened by the absence of William Cates from their line- up. This player is reported on a sponging trip. The once invincible Lunn, who has been pounded pretty hard late- ly, will be on the mound to fight it out with Hernandez of the Stars, Hernandez is on the comeback trail and has one victory over the Funeral Home to his credit al- ready.
