Curtis had turned suddenly at the

Whether Vire-did or not she did not
betray. But she was thinking deeply.
After all, Vire was only a little flap-

and adventure, •.Uira,,like many an -
ether girl of to -day, was convinced,
that she was equal to anything.' There
was no emergency, no • situation 'she
corild not meet. At least Vira had felt
that until a few days ago. Now she
was : lesrning.
Vira: was a• quick thinker. . It was
born in her. , She wee turning beer in
her mind various phases of t P
posal of Mr,''Crook. Nor was Vira be-
traying to him' what Was ..going on
back of those dark lakes of her'"eyes:.
Tho fact of the matter was that this
girl intrigued even -the worldly-wise
Crook. Ile was not quite euro ever
whether she might not be on to him.
-Suddenly Vire., seemed to "have a
bright idea. "Very well, sir," she said
briskly. "I will do as you say. I will
meet you, there et -three."

Vira,-in great eagerness now, stop-
ped her car before the great•Gerard
mansion. She hoped that her mother
would ,be at home and was delighted
when George, the butler, informed her
that she was.
A moment later she burst into her
mother's room and in a flood of en-
thusiasm poured forth the offer of the
lawyer to secure the co-operation of
Pete in the town jail for the return of
Dick in consideration of bail being
furnished for his release.
Mrs. Gerard, conservative soul, was
shocked at Harting with her jewels on
any such wild chance as this, as well
she might be. But Vira was not abash-
ed at the objection. In fact she had
anticipated it. Vira was a smart little
girl. :She had thought it all out. . .
"But,•mother, dear, I' don't mean

never know the difference, these hicks.

And if you get back Dick, you can
afford to make good if the man jumps

Mrs, Gerard was, under her calm
exterior, frantic over the continued`
absence of her boy. She also saw
the cleverness of Vira. She agreed.

II11311C was quite excited by' the sur-
linesd of -Pete, He did not ;know' the
game' like an old hand,•, realize that
this was acting. : Perhaps in his ex-
citement.hls voice raised itself ,a little
hi her than it would have done other-
wise, But he -wanted Pete; to under-
stand. He did not Ibok around to
see that he. Was at the same time -mak
ing-his enemy Ken understand equally,
well.
Ken had come to the look -up' and
was listeningas he peered cautiously
around the corner. He was getting
an earful. And also Ken wasgetting
wise. He hadbeen fooled once•that
day, Now he was on his guard.' Was
there any reason to suppose that this
thingwas on the level any iiore`thau
the rueo by which he and Ruth had
been almost taken in that morning?.
Only, in this case` it was aimed : at
Vire.
The thing that worried Ken as it
flashed over his mind was that it was
ab up to hiin'alone. He was just a.
boy. He '• had no false ideas of his
own importance. And by -that very
same token -he was' much .more likely
lb succeed': in protecting Villa. Only,
he knew he must be very careful of
whom he tookinto his confidence. He
needed the help of a man; He had
sized nil Mr. Crook. He was powerful.
How he wished he knew where he
could reach Glenn Buckley!' '
Once now Hanklooked around fur-
tively. ' 'Ken was . prepared. He with-
drew his 'head. around the corner. of
the jail just in time. It would be fatal.
to let hank Trnow that he knew or sus-
pected anything. He did not take any
more chanceslbut slid, to safety around
the othersideof-the jail building and
soon wad -a-sufficient distance.from
Hank' that that: young gentleman
might not 'suspect` a thing even if
-again they met. •
J' Trouble was brewing and Ken al-
ways made a point of being in at the
fermentation. 'Buie 'vas Vire now?
It was nearing three. -Where was Jack
Curtis? Above all, where was Glenn
Buckley? Ken .started off on his bi-
cycle to, find , some of them. -
Suddenly it 'occurred to him that
Rae was stopping at the Club. Glenn
had bean with Rae at the Binnacle.
Why not, try the Club? He turned his
wheel to that direction.
Again Ken had made a good guess.
Ken ,was learning that such things
were more than mere coincidences.
The use of his head was leading him
tatd fortunate encounters, whereas if
you did rot use your head, you failed.
a ailure'is easy enough at the best.
There was Glenn Buckley with Ttae,
actually bidding her good-bye with
some show of interest. It made Ken
.feel sore, such effusiveness. He did not
like Rae, mistrusted her—and he did
like Vira, only he was sorry for.'Rae
turned anal ran upstairs to dress for
',onre 'function or. other. As Glenn
turned awes' Ken nabbed him.
"Glenn," he --called, lowering his
tone. "I think Vira Is going to get
into some trouble!"
Excitedly now he began to unfold
his ideas' of the possible unknown
peril the foolish girl was running into.
"Why tell me? What 3s it to me?"
Buckley was still angry anal he would
have Ken know that he was not inter-
ested in Vira any more.
But Ken knew better than that.
Glenn's 'very tone showed he was.
"Say," he confided. "You didn't know
it, but I.saw that scrap you had with
her at,the Binnacle. Do you want to
know? Well, after you lcft and she
went the other way; I saw Jack Curtis
give Rae the wink. And Rae handed•
him the high sign to go after. Vira.
He did—while you were; inside, so in-
terested with Rae you were blind.
Don't be a'sap!"
Ken's revelation shook Buckley. It
rather put him up in the air. Ken
saw his advantage, Went en to tell
Glenn what he heard Vita was doing,
dwelt a bit en :thp peril to her. He
put a little imagination into it. ICen
was a clever boy andwhen he grew
up ought to make a good promoter.
He gradually 'sold Buckley. Buckley
weakened and .finally was as excited
as Ken. It was that wink to Rae and
her answer to Curtis, unknown to
him, that did it. She could not make
a monkey out of him, Glenn vowed..

• CHAPTER XXL
FUMES oe FEAR.
Somehow Ken had a feelingthat all
was not well with Vira, Perhaps it
was that he had just been through -a
particularly harrowing experience
with his sister Ruth. What more
likely, 'then, that in some way this
clever gang might try o involve Vira,
the sister of his pal, Diek Gerard?
As he pedalled along' on his wheel
back from the Binnacle Inn, Ken was
casting about in his mind various
ways of getting a line on what was
going on. Her was Hank and with
him a perfect stranger. With what
could that have to do? Many things.
Ken 'might have been only a boy, but
he had a quick wit. There flashed over
him a thought of that sour thug who
had been arrested the night before at
te fire and'. lodged in the 'town jail.
Hank had been observing that:' Could
there be any connection here? At any
rate it would' take only a few minutes
to get around to the town jail. ' Per-
haps he might' chance on some claw.

it as iuconscipuous as. possible. Thus

However the inconspicuous bench-
