Everything was tuned for reception on the, wave length accorded Easton. "If there's anything to say around here, we ought to get it," remarked Easton, curbing his impatience. "Everybody has my official waves length and number," He glanced out of the window. "There goes that scout cruiser that's been lying about here.. She's weighed anchor.

Easton Evans took no pains to conceal his disgust at the conquest by his primitive instincts of Ken. "What about, this time?" Ken was silent. He did not seem to want to tee, at least under: compulsion. Besides, he, too, had just caught a shot through the opposite window of the "Scooter" speeding down to the mouth of the harbor in the direction of the Sound, "What about?" repeated Craig.

He struggled fiercely. But Lenihan would never have been engaged to give any performance of malting escapes from rope ties,such as the greet Houdini.. He ket at it until he al- most fainted from exhaustion." Every struggle seemed to cause the ropes to bite more sharply into• his'flesh.

And the gag was impossible to remove without having: first remov- ed the -ropes. He shivered with the cold, and squirmed as he rolled into cobwebs and felt cold, clammy bugs crawling on his. Meanwhile, inside the garage, with- out a thought of the old gardener, who had been trussed -up, the thugs had completed' 'their job of camouflaging- the yellow racer into a gray one. Now the rainllad stepped and clouds were scudding away across the sky as the sun began to lighten the eastern, horizon. They' pushed the gray racer out of the garage, using the bumpers, into the wind that it might dry quicker: Then they started to -examine a splen- did, field radio set that was concealed under the rear seat of the racer. It was evident that 'these .thugs were much above the ordinary. They'were constantly in touch -with some -source inf radio orders and were never work- ing in the dark. , The radip having been looked after, they returned to the garage. Here, in the hour or, so needed before the rapid -drying paint they had used would be set, they busied themselves with another Iabor which seemed to give them a great deal" of amusement. They were clever mechanicians and with an extra .automatic gun which they had, some wire, some boards and tails they were setting quite as neat a spring gun trap as had ever been devised, The yarns winds that were drying the gray racer were ziow in a measure helping Lenihnee. 13e had not ceased Mt strugg_es, intermittently he would resume diem.. Now, with the drying of the ropes he could feel that his persistance was being rewarded with a•little success. It heartened the old man olid he redoubled his -efforts, patting forth his last remaining strength. At last Lenihan _felt the ropes on his 'wrists loosening. He managed to free one hand, then the other. He rubbed. his lacerated skin ruefully, then proceeded to remove the -gag. But he did not make any outcry yet.

Broadly speaking, there are three -important diseases In which sunlight is of supremeImportance. Those are consumption which doctors' call tu- berculosis; rickets — the frequent cause of grave deformities in child- hood; and anaemia or,pooraess of blood. People. who have not studied-niedi- cine.regard the word tuberculosis as applying to eonsumption of the lungs. This is quite incorrect. Tuberculosis may -occur in almost any of the bones, glands or other, tissues of the body. But wherever the disease, the' suf- ferer may always bops for a great im•, prove`ment In his 'condition, and even cure, provided he"will 'keep a brave' heart . and can plane himself in the hands of a 'physician who has the necessary experience in applying the healing property of sunlight. 80 wonderful are the results obtain- ed by sunlight, that in a book written by ono of -the chief physicians who practises this treatment, You may see photographs: of cases of great deform- ity caused by tuberculosis, cured by sunlight so that no semblance of the deformity exists. Under the proper conditions of sue - light and air, and with the necessary Before food to supply the deficiency of certain Important elements, 'children, with rickets benen•t:wepderfully. And with regard to anaemia, properly prescribed sunlight causes fl"rupid increase both In the number of the red carpuaciss of the blood and in its coloring. matter. People oftiteeble constitution, these. suffering from general debility, and those recovering.from acute fevers, are all influenced in a lasting and ac- tive manner when sunlight is adminis- tared to them. • • It is, however, useless to expect that the first two classes can be made ro- bust in two or three weeks. it may take months. People• who have become used to the treatment are able to go about with a -minimum of clothing •even in cold weather.

The Meaning of Roads. If we leave our ship on the coast, we need roads 'to travel by .an Bind, and this was au especial need for the Romana with their huge Empire to ad- minister. By the roads treasure was conveyed to Rolbe iii 'sealed baskets; flsci, hence our word "fiscal." We are all of us far too ready to take things for granted; we walk on a Roman road and are not thrilled; we may say, "Weil, after all, it is only a road," and the forget the travellers who, through all the centuries, have hurried along its.surface. It Is interesting to speetl- late why a road should be lit the post. tent we find it, The answer, that it serves to connect two towns, may not contain the whole essence of the mat- ter, because we can go on to ask why the towns have grown up In these places. There - must be certain ways up and down a eountri�', but these would not be very useful unless they connected areas where men could s grow corn, or cattle, or -find iron and Coal with wbiolr to. work. • Nothing is more expressive' Of the e Roman .genius than the Roman road. One of the most urgent questions to- t day is the traffic problem, intensified by the .Coming of motor' traftle.

Cosnmunity Singing. Community singing is very- much with us; go where we will we cannot escape It: Nor would we if we could. It le the sort of thing that was to be expected; for, if the plain truth must be spoken, !t is hi the very nature of things—the outcome of music's na- tural growth and development. Eves its bitterest enemies are willing to ad- mit that community singing is better than community scrapping and fight- ing! If we would enjoy life to the full, we must give up the selfish no- tion of living to ourselves alone. In- tercourse is natural and helpful; so is community singing. A familiar maxim runs to the effect that "third-class do- ing beats first-class watching any Gine." Such a &weeping statement, like many other maxims. cannot be swallowed whole; all the same, we do not doubt that "third-class singing beats first-class Iistenine in tate ma- jority of instances," Those of us who are in the lieblt of attending the great Competitive Fes- tivals have experienced some of the thrills ' obtaluable from community singing at its beet and under• the most favorable circumstances. It is well worth going to a representative tom- petitive gathering to hear the cone blued ,singing of the nndienco.
