Chapter 37 TRAVELING LIGHT ‘HE coastwise steamer from the capital followed a long tropical shoreline, nosed into the harbor proper, proceeding slowly under the direction of a native pilot, gingerly feeling the way through waters that ‘recently had been infested with mines. The long stolid phalanx of sun- baked roofs spread out before her, coming right down to the long ship- ping front with its warehouses and cranes and coffee chutes. When she landed at her berth, a slim girl ¢ressed in tropical white with a gay touch of color in the form of a silken purple scarf about her throat, stepped ashore into an at- mosphere of humming chutes, star- ing sweating coffee porters, jabber- ing hybrid tongues, and noisy steam- ship cranes. what. It was something familiar in the midst of grey squalid confusion. She alighted before the National Coffee Company office. It was the only place she had to start. They were Terry Willett’s employers. The native clerk stared at her in amazement, and so did Drake, the tall Englishman who was manager of the branch office. “Willett?” he repeated. “Why, he’s been in town the past few days, but he’s leaving right away. Going up the river to work.” “Where can I find him?” she asked quickly. Drake rubbed his long chin with bony fingers. Where in the name of all that’s holy had Willett ever met a girl like this? She seemed very anxious to find that man who'd come back from the States not saying much. “He might be in the Santini Hotel. If you'd like, I'll take you up there.” “Thank you,” she said gratefully. The Santini was no luxurious-look- ing hostelry. It was a two-storied white stone building with walls at least a foot thick and ornamented with those omnipresent little iron balconies. Its bar was the most famous thing ; about it, and-a smell of beer and liquor seemed impregnated in the lobby, although a few potted palms { and Rodriguez 8, (CAGE CONTESTS ACEVEDO STARS LOST FIRST GAME OF YEAR, 7105 LOST TO TROJANS IN CON- TEST PLAYED YESTERDAY AFFRERNOON AT NAVY FIELD The Acevedo Stars lost their first game of the year to the Tro- jans yesterday afternoon at the Navy Field.

Friday night the Miami @itihi- It was queer to see a girl landing alone, queerer still to see that no- body met her. White women of her type didn’t come to Propionoire un- attached. v girl wore dark glasses against the glare of the sun, and if she felt strange and alone in that stunted smelly part of the world, she didn’t show it. Her step was elastic and she moved quickly and surely across the dock toward the customs house, a steward carrying two.suit- cases following her. Allaire West was traveling light this trip. Usually she had several trunks, also a maid. When she came out of the customs a flock of waterfront hack drivers be- sieged her like chattering incompre- hensible magpies, elbowing each other to shriek their terms, crowd- ing up on her in an unwashed n.ob. But this cool-appearing Sefiorita wasn't flustered. She walked calmly to a taxi and got in. That settled everything. Whoever owned it could drive her. “Café N: said, and added to h cious Spanish, my dear. ional Compania,” she lf, UT the driver understood. Nation- | al Cofice Company. He was a thin sallow man in soiled limp white ducks and a battered straw hat. His car was a creaking arrangement; stuffing bulged througa gaps in the uphols: and the leather seat was sun-d and cracked. Allaire had ridden in better equipages. She smiled slightly. But the car moved and that was enough. She was her2! All through the long air jaunt to the capital and the trip by steamer she had made no other plans beyond just getting here. Now she was here and a big ques- tion mark rode with her through narrow streets of houses with iron balconies and little short pillars. She was glad when the car got out of that waterfront district and swept into a wider cleaner avenue past parks and plazas of shrubbery trimmed in artistic design. The Latins would let their indus- tries go to rack and ruin while they flew at each other’s throats, but their parks never suffered. even in Pro- Pionoire. That sight of green beauty “Atro- | | strove valiantly to keep up appear- ances. She ascended the stairs with her taciturn companion, walked down a corridor and stopped before a door. Drake knocked. “Come in!” roared two voices in unison on the other side. “There's a lady here to see you, Terry,” called Draxe. SLIM girl in tropical white with a purple scarf about her throat stood on the threshold at Drake's side. Corrigan’s feet came off the table with a crash. “Holy Moses!” dazed. There was another crash as a glass fell from Willett’s fingers, which were suddenly like those of a small child's. He stared incredulously, the tan ebbing from his cheeks and the sound of many waterfalls in his ears. | If his father had stood there he | couldn’t have been much "1 bergasted. Drake excused himsett ie looked trom the girl to Ww illegt and back to the girl again. WERT “Aren't you going to fae Terry?” a little tre ulously, he murmured, she said, ment. He couldn’t. Willett was usu- ally quick to recover from a surprise, recover and adopt a course of action | with the speed and snap of a crack- ing whip. But this was something that beat any surprise he'd ever receives in his young life. Surprise! There had to be another word for it. “Wait a minute,” said Corrigan, “I'm in the way here.” He got up and walked to the door, | stopping to beam at the girl. “I'm Corrigan, that lug’s partner,” he announced, “and if you get tired of looking for him, start looking for me.” He grinned and went out, closing the door behind him. And still Wil- lett was silent, “Oh, please say something, Terry,” the girl begged. “I know you're sur- | prised—but couldn’t you act as if | you liked it?” (Copyright, 1935, by David Garth), Allaire talks to a chap named Corrigan, tomorrow.
