PXGE TEN MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, AUGUST 11, 1933. Ilk-. HIDDEN DOOR KYKOfBIS: Colin BtKltl, call ing himtelf Donald Howard, it about to tanA at Cap a I'Orage. on tht north thort of tht dull of St. Jjaurenct. lit hat atked about Jot Latnrrt, to whom ht mutt deliver s myeteriout letter, and Oermamt Trtmblay. another pattenger on tht little tteamboat, doet not know him. But tht tellt Colin of a club not far atcay, where Latarrt might live. Colin it in peril from tht Uatk, Xeto York gangtter, and tht titw.tion it further complicated be eauet Latarrt it In tht tmploy of tht Uatk. Chapter IS CAP A L'ORAOE "yHE club Is about eight or nln 1 miles by water farther on down the coast," Gtennalna went on, "at Riviere dea Cascades, a aalmon river. X millionaire from New York, named Kennliton, bought It aome years ago and built what be calls bis fishing clnb there." Something unpleasant flashed through Colln'a mind, "Kennlston?" he asked, "Waldrow Kennlston?" . "Tea," Cennalna replied "You know him, then?" "No," ha answered. "I've heard the name, that's alL But you know blm, of course." She shook her bead. yagfrSWMWiwii njiuVaMiw.. Germalne waa abaorbed In the engine. "I've never even seen him," she aid. "They don't depend on the canned goods on Madame Frenler'a abelves, and they never come to Cap a I'Orage. They hare aeveral big power boata that ferry them back and forth between the club and the Gasps' coast where they can get fresh upplles direct by rail even from ' New York. . "I think Father waa called down there once professionally. Anyway, I'll aak him It he knows whether there Is anyone by the name of Laaarre there. And anyway, whether he does or not, though there 1 -la no road overland, there would be nothing to prevent you from going down there by motorboat to Inquire for yourself."' "In that Jolly little one of yours then, perhaps with you!" "Oh I" she mocked demurely; and then brightly: "Why, of course! Why not aome afternoon? But I must fly nowl Look) We're almost In at the wharf. Those finishing touches, you know." He watched her aa ahe aped along the deck and disappeared through the aaloon entrance. Then his brows knotted. So Waldrow Kennlston owned a salmon river and had built place down herel It waa quite true, as he had just told Germalne Tremblay, that he did not know Kennlston personally, but he knew, or least had heard, quite a lot about the other not to Kennlston'a credit. In the clubs mostly. - He searched back In his mind now, mustering all he knew about Ken nlston. Kennlston was still a young man. He waa a plunger. Six or aeven yeara ago he had Inherited a fortune from bis father. In short order he was on the verge of ruin. Then three or four years ago he had bloaaomed out Into full flower again, with apparently more money at His command than ever. Colin laughed shortly to himself. Suppose It should turn out that Laiarre was a frequenter of Kennls ton'a "club"? The Bonaventure's whistle boom ad out raucously. Colin, went down to hla cabin to look after his goar.

PACKARD CAP A L'ORAOB had not belled Ha name. For three days follow ing the afternoon of Colln'a arrival the weather had been unsettled and stormy, keeping him Indoora except when, taking advantage of a tew short-lived bursts of sunshine, Ger malne Tremblay and he had gone tor walks together. He had apent a great deal of time at Dr. Tremblay'a house, otherwise the days would have been onea of unutterable ennui, Aa It was, . , . He struck a match, cupped bla hands against the wind, and lighted a cigarette his eyes on the girl In the stern of the motorboat beside him, who at the moment was bend ing over the engine with an oil can In ber hand. He wished he could write her Into a book and really picture her as she was; but his pen always stumbled over a girl and so did his tongue. He always addressed ber sedately as Miss Tremblay, but be always thought of her a? Germalne. He wondered If she, who always called blm Mr. Howard, would like the name! His eyes roved over the little craft an open launch, save for Its decked prow, under which one could store perishables In wet weather, 01 even manage to crawl In uncomfort ably oneself If one were concerned ;.-r.'.'.rai.i4a only with a dry skin and not with the handling of the boat. SHE was still absorbed In the en gine. His thoughts harked back over the last three days. Dr. Trem blay waa quite on his feet again so much so that he and hla alster were planning a little recuperative trip over to Gasps' and then by motor around the peninsula, when the Belle Fleur, that made some of the south shore ports, came In tomor row. Colin liked Dr. Tremblay, Men tally he pictured the other now: a man of perhapa alxly with Iron gray hair, slim, unostentatiously particular about his dress and ap pearanceand always an air of courtliness about him that made one lutnk of the manners of old France. And Madame de Courval, the doc tor's widowed sister much like the doctor in her cordial and gracious manners, and much like Germalne in her high spirits. An unforgettable household that Included Antoi nette, who had once been Germalne'a nurse aud waa now tho cook, and Antolnette'a husband, Jacques, who was the man of all work about the house and who had been trained to serve at table. A quaint, picturesque place, Cap a I'Orage but still strange to him. No roads led out of Cap a I'Orage, either to the east or the west or the north and Its southernmost point was Its own whart .The village be gan and ended with Its own three or four streets, excopt, of course, for a trail here and there that ltd Into the woods for a short distance. A little village that waa all a world unto Itself except on the none too frequent steamer days. It was that way all aloug the coast. And the peoplel There was a charm about their frugal and simple lives, their unaffected friendliness, that waa Irresistible. There was Madame Frenler, for Instance. True, the ac commodations left something to he desired, but as for Madame Frinler herself, nothing was too much trou ble for her; His thoughts veered suddenly again, and a whimsical smile twisted his Hps.
