morose, even to his daughter. telly
the•dottor appeared able to get along
with him on easy terms, and Rainey
noticed that, to Carlsen, the slipper
seeuled conctlintory even to deference.
Peggy Simms watched her father
with worried eyes. The curious, tar-

until the flesh seemed c•ontInually dry

On the eleventh day out, Rainey
went below In the middle of tete after-
noon for 111s senhnots. In the mala
cabin he found Simms seated in a
chair with his daughter leaning over
him, speaking to her In a harsh, com-
plaining voice.
. "No, yon can't do a thing for nu',"
he was saying. "It's this sciatica.
I've got to get Carlsen."

fu11y, apparently uncertain whether
to go herself to find Carlsen or stay
with her father.
"Anything I can do, bass Simms?
Your father seems quite 111."

She turned oncertahlby to her tither.
"Can I help you to get 1111n into the

quick to sense this. -

The storm blew out, and there came
n spell of pleasant weather. Simms
was still 000110041 to his cabin.
ICxcept for observations and the de-
tails of navigation, ('arisen left the
schooner to Rainey. They were well
off the (oast, out of the fogs, appar-
ently alone upon the lonely ocean that
ran sparkling to the far horizon. It
watt warm, there was little to do, the
sailors, as well as the bunters, spent
most of their time lounging on the
deck.
Lund bung over the rail, smoking,
or paced the deck, always close to
Rainey. The manner in which he
went about the ship was almost un-
canny. Except that his arms were
generally ahead of him when he
moved, his hands, with their woolly
covering of rod hair, lightly touching
boom or rope or rail, 11e showed no
hesitation, made no mistakes. When
the breeze was steady he would even
take the w'11(el and steer perfectly by
the "feel of the hind" on his cheek,
the slap of it In the canvas, or the
creak of 1110 rigging to tell him if he

took an almost chIldieh delight in pro-
claiming his prowess as helmsman.

What akes a Town ?
A prosperous rural population which demands a community
centre where may be established business, educational, relig-
ious and entertainment facilities. Where these flourish and
are active it is safe to surmise that the people of that section
realize and appreciate the value to them of such a centre.
\{}ilg���f A� �y l� 1� �+ Ittp 1�,
f, n a a t r ��,. z, i 9 W t a i a M s ■ 6c
The 'towns are largely maintained by the- surrounding districts,
But the organisation, the direction, and to a great measure the
up -keep• of the in,titutions in such towns are in the hands
of the business interests, together with those directly and in-
directly connected therewith. Without the abive business and
professional men to supervise and govern these public institu-
tions and undertakings no town could thrive.
;,1 h 0 Is Mainly Affected?
Every eitieen either in or about a town should be concerned
in seeing to it that they do their part in carrying on any good
cause which may be promoted, etcher by financial or active
support, Only in this way will any town prosper and develop
as it should.
Publicity is Required
In promotion work your local paper takes the leading part.
It is ever the champion of worthy causes and philanthropic
and patriotic 'undertakings. But to function properly, and
fully carry out Rs natural prerogahives, it must in turn have the
financial support of the eommmlity it serves. When needing
advertising or printed matter always first think of
The Post
