THE ENEMY AGAIN
CHAPTER X
There were no shots from
above, but a murmur of excited
voices reached Tom and Judith.
Flashlights played all around,
never quite spotting them under
the wharf. For a few c-ocands the
swimmers stopped paddling in the
seater and huddled together, hold-
ing to the barnacled post.
"This can't last long, Judy,"
Burke whispered hoarsen-, his
teeth chattering. "They'll find us
stere. They know we're under
here."
"Let's take a chance of swim-
ming for it," Judith said._ "If they
shoot at us it might attract at-
tention and bring help of some
kind. They may not take that
chance. Anyway, Pd rather
drown than freeze to death," she
said, shivering.
"Then conte on, darling." The
endearing word strengthened her
with new hope.
They moved in and around the
boats, swimming as quietly as
possible, but their pursuers' lights
picked them out. No shots carate,
but Judith was tense with fear.
Swimming furiously now, they
drew out of the lights' range and
reached a white schooner anchor-
ed off shore. With great diffi-
eulty Tom got himself aboard and
pulled her up. They were ex-
hausted and cold.
"I'm not sure this is a safe
place but it gives us a chance,"
Tom panted, scanning the dark-
ness. •
"Surely they can't hound us
much longer. The detective should
he along SOOTI. He was to follow`
me." Judith drew her shoulders
forward and wrapped her arms
around herself f'.or protection.
against the -cold t r * "I'Irx •user.-
Ing, Tom -- - simply freezing to
• death:'.
He took her hand .and pulled
her along the deck to the cabin
door. Luckily it was not locked.
Judith stumbled down the first
step but he caught her up in lily
arms and set her safely on the
floor below. His arms dropped
away from her at once while her
heart cried out to him not to ]et
her go.
"1f I can find some old clothes
for us," he said, fumbling in the
.ark for closets. "We've got to
get out of these wet things before
we catch pneumonia."
There was nothing to be found,
but he kept looking. Judith's
fingers discovered a blanket on
one of the bunks and she wrapped
herself in it, wet clothes and all,
and sat down on the edge of the

bunk. Quite without 1*7twili.ng, she
laughed ---a laugh that was next
to teat's and hvsteries.
"When '1 get out of this mess,
the company owes me a real va-
cation and another rain in salary.
I'll never be the san`."
"You poor, street darlings," said
Toni softly from acro: e the room.
Judith stared in the direction
of his voice. Her heart thumped
against her ribs so loudly she
wondered if he couldn't hear it.
A devilish inip17ISC rose in her
to taunt him. "Don't tell me you
really have a heart."
"One that heats for a redhead,"
he laughed. "Now dos. t try to
snake me say more. Judy, not un-
til we are out of this. Then 1'11
prove what a real sentimental
streak I have. What you have
gone through for me . . .
"You don't owe me a thin,
Toni Burke," she flared hotly. "I
have .only been following orders.
It's my job—the job you thought
so stupid for a girl"

There was a swift movement
and Judith felt herself pulled in-
to strong arms and against a wet
coat and a body that shivered
with cold. His hand tilted her
head back and he kissed her—a
kiss that set her whole body tin-
gling with excitement. He freest
her lips but held her tightly he
his arms. .
"It's •a free world, Judy, dar-
ling," he told her huskily. "I
have a right to be sentimental
any time 1 want to and without
changing my' mince about things."
She pushed at him and strug-
gled to get out of his arms. An-
other minute and she would be
weeping.
"Well, I don't; )vane any of your
oc*e," she said and wondered how
she was telling swell a lie—it was
the only thing in the world she
did. want.

He kissed her again. Slowly,
she felt herself sink into a well of
•
happiness and then just as slowly
come back to the present, Against
her will, her assns clung to him.
Then he let go of her so abruptly
that she fell back to the bunk.

moved away from her.
Judith was too stubborn to give
way to tears and let him know he
had won. Instead she got angry.
"Let's have a light ---:pies or no
spies," she demanded and stood
up.
"Judith, sweet—" he said, "why
don't you give in and say^-" He
broke off abruptly. "Sh—" he
whispered. Her heart beat chok-
ingly.
Into the quiet there came* the
sound, close at hand, of oars dip-
ping into the sea. '
"Oh, Tom!" she whispered and
stumbled forward against hill,
forgetting her anger, wanting
only the love and protection of
his arms. "You were right. In-

Leonard Lyons in New York

10 most eminent professors in

of two-hour lectures followed by
questions put to them by the Gen-,

weeks were overand the profes-
sore and Chiang Kai-Shek were

Britain Receives
Food Education
Lord Woolton Claims Knowl-
edge Will Not Be Forgotten
Food education is one of the
most important contributions
Lord Woolton and the Ministry
of Food have made to the nation
and in the opinion of the Minis-
ter it will have a permanent
effect.
Lord Woolton ,cited the ,case of
children to whom proper foods are
available to enable them to grow
to manhood. and womanhood, free
from the ailments of under -nour-
ishment.
Before the war, he says., well-
to-do parents knew what foods
to give their children, but this
knowledge was not common
among working class parents.
Since the war, and its consequent
food control, all families have
been on more or less the same
diet and the Ministry has made•
available to parents not only the
food but the knowledge neces-
sary to bring' up healthy children.
"And this -knowledge," he says,
'cis not something which will be
forgotten."
Tn the'future, he predicts, chil-
dren will be more scientifically
fed than. in .the past, and he ex-
pressed' the 'hope that the limited
pre-war program of feeding chil-
dren at school only if they were
under -nourished had been replac-
ed for all time by the modern
idea that all children at school
need hot noon -day nmettle..
British restaurants. and factory
canteens are mother war develop-
ment Lord Woolton expects to re-
main. They have brought "lux-
ury'' meals within the working
man's means and their benefits
are such that they snust continue
after the war.

For Cheese Lovers
Cheese has an important place
in the die's, for it keeps well, it is
a concentrated food, and ordin-
arily it is an econ01 ices one, at
least when compared with other
animal foods. One pound of
cheese represents the fat and pro-
tein of a gallon of milk. It is one
form in wh.ch a surplus of milk
may be stored satisfactorily and
cheaply.
Here are three cheese dishes
that will surely appeal:
