Prom the first it was obvious that to the birds of the air, the beasts of the field, and the monkeys that fm the treetops, she was an Dersonage; one in whom trust and confidence. It did seom in the least as if a stranger into their midst.

We had been together a tong time. They had their cages, and { bad my cot, and Helen had ber sleeping basket in the same tent.” She laughed. “It got a little close sometimes, but you get used to that. if they like you and know that you're close by, they don’t fidget. By the way, where is Helen?” Stil! scratching the great tiger be tween the ears, she looked about her, and then upward into the rig. ging. The Boldero had a stumpy fore- mast, to which two cargo-booms were hinged. A touch of red showed that Helen bad climbed to the very top of this, Ivy Green laughed. “That girl.” she said, “is nothing but a showoff.” N the meanwhile Harvey Bowers had sent to the abandoned circus tor Miss Green's belongings and had spent a sweaty time of it packing his own. In addition he had received much hospitatity in Sinbao and had many farewell calls to make, 80 that \t was not anti! late in the afternoon he went aboard the Boldero, bag and baggage. His arrival was a signal for the antidy tramp to get under way. The accommodation ladder and the an- chor came up. The bell sounded in the engineroom, and the ship's rickety engine began to turn over slowly For some miles ihe approach to the harbor of Sinbao ts among coral reefs and Captain Wong Bo wished to be clear of these before dark. Rowers came aboard in an eager spirit, The girl, who was to be his companion during the voyage, had deeply impressed his susceptible nature, It was true that she regard- ea him with antagonism and per haps dislike, but he hoped by steady good nature and courtesy to win het to a different attitude. There came aboard with him a tin and glass. These were not for himself, but for her. In addition te carried in his own hands a long necklace of gardenias, a customary gift whenever persons make de Dartures from tropic ports. The procession of bearérs which preceded and followed him up the ladder terminated in two loutge chairs of woven rattan. He intended to make her as comfortable as pos- sible. The cages and crates containing the animals formed an irregular rec- tangle on the forward cargo-deck, So lashed and battened down that they could not come loose and slide about in a seaway. Beyond these was the forecastle- head, a snug if dingy triangle of ancient teak decking. The plates which formed the bows of the Bok dero had been carried up and made a rail for the triangle. whole litter of delicacies put up in . 'T was here, when the Boldero was already under way, that Bowers finally located Miss Green. She had finished her first part-day’s work of getting acquainted with McLeod’s iénds with this man.” menagerie, and appeared to be en- joying an animated conversation with Flint. It is doubtful if at this time Bow- ers thought of the wireless operator as a possible rival. He was not ac+ customed to rivals. He hat. far mote physical attraction than the aver. age rival in the Far East, and far more money. He was accustomed to do as he-pleased and get what he wanted. In finding the young woman who had so deeply impresse: him, In company with another man, he was not in the least disconcerted. His smile of greeting as he climbed the two long steps to the forecastle-héad included them both; but his first words were for the girl. “Have you picked your cabin?” he asked, “I don’t even know where the | cabins are,” she answered. “I have been trying to make friends with this agreeable young man, and with the animals. Where are the cabins?” “Under the bridge,” safd. Bowers, “there is a place that was oncé used as a smoking-room. The smokés of happier years are still imprisonéd in it. Under that is a nest of six pas senger cabins, three of which are outside cabins with one little port- hole each, and three of which are little black holes of Calcutta.” Flint grinned. “I told you that you wouldn’t be happy on this ship,” he said. “But [ am,” said Bowers, “bliss- fully happy. 1 am on my way. I am going places. She is moving, isn’t she?” He referred of course to the prog- ress of the Boldero. She was now going full speed ahead, and would { perhaps cover four knots of sea- water in the next hour. “Of course she’s moving,” said Flint with indignation. “But ft is best not to speak of such things, be- caus she has an engine whose feel- ings are easily hurt, When its feel- ings are hurt, it stops altogether. It likes to stop when we are among reefs, or almost anywhere off a leo | shore.” | (Copyright, 1934, by Gouverneur Morris) Bowers, Monday, arranged mate ters for his new helper. ac et nt NRPS CTR EPP i OA 8 ™ THB ERE WEE: CEPIBEN .YACHT REGATTA _ STARTS TODAY | ENDEAVOUR OF GREAT BRIT-_ | AIN AND RAINBOW OF BRAVES DEFEAT REDLEGS IN SCORE READING 4-2; PHILADELPHIA AND ST. LOUIS SPLIT TWIN BILL (Spectat to The Citizen) NEW YORK, Sept. 15.—With a five-hit pitching and a home run, the Giants went to victory over the St. Louis Car- dinals, 4 to 1. The triumph in- creased New York’s lead to 5 1-2 games at the half-way point of the crucial series and’ did serious damage to the Cards’ prospects of making a ra¢e of it:for the flag. Three times the Tigers nearly threw away a ball game as’ they played as if disgusted by their in- ability to hit Bob Burke’s pitch- ing, but each time they repented their actions and tied the score and finally they won out, 6 to 4, in the twelfth inning over the Senators to increase their lead j over the defeated New York Yan- kees to 4 1-2 games. Philadelphia and St. Louis di- vided a doubleheader, with the Athletics taking the first game, 9 to 7. The score in the second was 5-2. Cleveland defeated New York 12 to 5 with Harder pitching for the winning team. Chicago shut out the Boston Red Sox, 1 to 0. Gaston did the pitching for the victors. In the National League. the Bos- ton Braves copped the first game; of their current seriés with Cin- ; cinnati by a score of 4 to 2. These were the only games played as Chicago and Brooklyn and Pittsburgh and_ Philadelphia} in the National League were rain- ed out. NATIONAL LEAGUE At New York R. H. E.
