CAPTAIN A"rSi5DFaivLc ' v ' X ySS4 ( lir H "lOvl (Continued) AT seven o'clock Drake was dress ed and ready to go down. He knew bis guests were arriving. But on his way down he entered his den again. He felt uncomfortable. He never liked entertaining, but never before had bis dielike taken the bitter turn it seemed to have taken now. He felt ns if he simply could not play boat, even to save a reputation for courteous hospitality. He loaded up bis pipe again, flung wide tbe eastern window, and atood puffing quick little ainoke balls out into the nigbt. There was a suggestion of fog creeping up from the river. The street lights, and the lamps of moving vehicles were blurred and yellow. There was a tang in the air, too. A vague, salty tang. J He stood there, never hearing the dinner gong. The den was filling up with smoke and fog. The fog outside grew denser. He was lost in himself until the door opened, and his aunt burst in protesting: "Alden, dear! Are you ill? Your guests! Oh dear! That, borrid to bacco again! Why, Alden, this is a ahame. unon my word it is! You positively reek, reck of that beastly old pipe. Come down, do. But you must really use some prefume to night! Here!" . Alden stole away at the first op portunity and reveled in the dank fog along with his pipe, defying auntie and all her kind. Like many another scion of good family, Alden had gone to sea upon leaving school. When the lordly clipper ship reigned on the sea, sons of rich fathers as well as sons of tradesmen served an apprenticeship in sail simply for the experience. Few stayed on In the profession. 'Many never made more than tbe first voyage. Alden had completed his . four years, because be loved thelife. He had been a good sailor, too. He bad secured bis second. mate's ticket at first attempt. And since there was no hurry for him to settle down at home, and since he would not have to worry about earning a living, he stay ed on the grand old Patriarch until he passed to first mate and then master in turn. Then, inheriting his fortune, he had quit the sea. Quit it profes sionally, that is. He had built an other Fatriarcfi for bis pleasuring; a mart brigantine yacht, capable of cruising the world around: and be chose to command her himself. He had taken down his master's certificate from beside his pictured ships, because it always stung hint to violent rebellion.- At such mo ments be was ready to hurl every consideration to the four winds, and ship to anywhere in the Seven Hens. Of course he knew how absurd the impulse was. That was why he had fought it. He had made two long cruises in the yacht; but that was a futile sort of seafaring, he thought. Auntie was thore, ond auntie's party. It was much like being at home, ex cept that she could not accuse him Radio Programs Oregon Agricultural college will be on the air tonight, when Miss Helen ' Cowgill, assistant state club leader, speaks on "What Girls Are Doing ' This Year," at 8 o'clock.

He had fought against that urge until he was sore with the conflict He had never even surrendered to the longing to spend just ono day in Kailortown, among the docks, nmong the men who sailed the ships. That longiug was easier to combat. He could hop into his car, get some where outside city limits, and burn up the roads in a mad whirl of speed. f nil the while he was breathing dust and gasoline fumes, his mind would roam seaward to the tall clip pers and the blue of the Indian Ocean.. His pipe wont out. Ho raised his head and sniffed at the thick fog now blotting out everything. ' . Muttering while he knocked out the cold dottle of Iub pipe, he raced back to the house, sneaking in by a servants' entrance. Tbe lower part of th house was bright with lightB, alive with people. Ho ran up to his rooms, snatched up more tobacco and a light overcoat, and with a enp tuck ed in the pocket crept down to the entrance again. . He nlunacd into the fog, lost him self in the by Btreets until well away from the house, then lit his pipe afresh, buttoned bis coat, and Bet out at a swinging pace, regardless of fog or more cautious pedestrians, follow ing his nose towards the river side. Halted suddenly by a congestion of fog-bound buses, Drake leaned againBt a lamp post and for the first time realized how soft he had become. His chest heaved to the protest of fotty lungs, and once they came to rest his legs tightened all down the back. He saw the name of a bus that stopped so closo to the electric light upon his lamp post Hint tne shade yet shook from a light touch. "Burdett Hood! I haven't walked two miles! And laboring like a foun dered cow!" He laughed. "Golf! Eighteen holes at a snail's gait, sock ing a little ball with a dam big atick, and doddling along until you find it. Then homo in the car. Car here, car there, even an elevator enr to take you from ono floor to another in the house. And this is the regular thing I've done for years. Drake, you chump, you " "Taxi, sir?" A hoarse voice barked at him out of a brown patch on the fog. " "Yes. West India Docks." ho said, and laid a hand on tlio cab door. Then he laughed ngnln, in fine contempt of himself. "No thanks, old chap. I'll walk," he said. "Here, though, buy yourself a pint of rum and wait 'til the fog rolls by." He crossed tbe rood and whiBtled his way onward, still following his nose towards aromas which had ten fold intensified. He recognized the smell of ship chandleries. There was tho richness of oukum, of pitch, of turpaulina. There was tho sizzling greasy reck of fried fish and 'taters. Nearer than before tugboats blared.
