As the mate called the names over, the skipper came to the rail. As the men responded %o their names, and moved aside, the skipper played the heam of a flashlight over their faces, looking for the likely helms- nan, Tomorrow the men themselves would arrange wheel tricks and lookouts; tonight a man would be proved by Captain Stevens, “You, Bunting, relieve the wheel,” said Mister Twining. The flashlight flickered over Joe's placld face. “And you, there—" Mister Twining pointed into the darkness, at a mo+ mentary loss for the name; and the skipper's flashlight, seeking ont ¥rying Fish i | When frying fish, if the pieces | lare put into the hot fat with the skin side uppermost and allowed to GLE~ 28"\ chosen by the watch officer, and ap- | ERVED was toward she two deckchairs that stood by the saloon skylight.

Mary Manning read a book, her fair face rosy red, her blue eyes ever upon her book. The skipper was talking, but she appeared not to hear, Her color deepened as Drake finished the wheel and went to the skylight to remove the rods. And ehe got up, Stepping into the companionway she sald: “Captain Stevens, I'l come on deck when the work is done. My father would never permit the poop brasswork to be neglected until mid forenoon; mneither would he tolerate working the ship's boy to the point where there was no time for personal cleanliness.” Drake stooped to hide a grin. He felt the hot flush of shame surge through him; but he could grin, for Captain Stevens' face turned red, and the bruised lips opened and hung open as the girl vanished with the air and step of an offended princess. . “Mister Adams! Send this con- founded boy for'ard and have a couple of hands scrub him! Get him out o' my sight, d've hear!"

The apprentice turned aft, his mouth open. “Yes, sir.” “Give your brass rags to the boy Yes, that black fellow.’ Who 4’ ve think? You, Drake, come aft and get busy on the poop brasswork! Drake hesitated. He had seen the flutter of a. white skirt aft. He felt as if he simply dared not obey. If he refused to go aft, it would be insubordination. He would probably be confined in the forepeak. “Boy!” roared Mr. Adams. “Get 1 move on yo!

His lips puckered in a silent whistle, and his twinkling gray eyes widened. “If you wuz at sea long enough { to learn to tailor like that, you ain't got no business as a boy aboard this ship,” he sald, He regarded Drake's grinning face with a puzzled ex- pression, examining again the well cut garment in his hand. It was made of old canvas, softer than new, truly, but it was the fashion- ing of the work rather than the stitching that arrested attention, That sort of work was seen in the | grand old deepwatermen of a past and gone decade. Joc could do it, and a few others aboard the Or- ontes, but it was not a general ac- complishment, and the ability to turn out work of that sort hinted at a real apprenticeship to the sailing ship. . “We learned to do little jobs for oursclves when T was a boy at sea,” Drake smiled. “Nothing much in it. Salls gave me a bit of canvas ayd lent me his sallmaker's bag. I asked Ike Saintly for a pair of ecighors, and he borrowed these from Miss Manning.” Joe was thoughtful. He glanced | aft. The skipper and Marry Man- ning walked the poop together, along the weather side from taf- rail* to the break. The skipper seemed happy. The girl was laugh- ing and full of pleasant 'chatter. “Well, matey,” said Joe, “there ain't a bloke in this ship as can turn out clobber like that, an' you may lay to that, T never cut out & pair o' bags to ekal them, not in all my goin’ fishin’.
