"About three months." That means you'll return early In August?" "Yes." He was silent a moment then he turned to Anne and looked at her anxiously, "You'll be careful while I'm away?" "Careful?" aha repeated and laughed. "Goodness, John, you make me think there are goblins 'bout to git me. "There may be," be retorted Things have been quiet lately be cause there's been no fishing, bu . . . did you notice the water aa we crossed the channel? The season opens soon and the fish are running in hordes." He picked up a flat round pebble and skimmed It across the water. watching It skip along as though that were the moat Important thing In life. Anne watched blm, not real lzlng the tenderness In her smile She wanted to ruffle the glinting strands of his hair, to smooth the opened collar of his shirt. ."You know you're very precious to me, Nlkkl," be said as the rock dropped with a plop. "I . . . wbyl thank you." "Going away 1 had to tell you. You might not be bere when 1 get back. You're the one I told you about that day I came back from Crescent City I've known It since the first moment I saw you. I'll never forget that NiKki, mat football dance. I was feeling pretty good, bad some line luck on the field that afternoon and folks were treating me grand. tagged It to the dance. Just as I al ways did. because I could never find a girl to suit me. -rvujus Lansing and I were 1 standing In the door, when you came In. You were looking very serious. I liked that. I waa tired of giggles. You came on up the stops you remember that short flight, and then you smiled at Duke. It waa like the sun rising. "Thore you were, everything I'd dreamed about In one girl. And Duke knew you. He Introduced us. and wangled the dance for me, forced your escort to give It up. I won that dance and those three encores with my touchdown that afternoon. I'd have made a dozen, Nlkkl, If I'd thought there was such a prize wait, lng.i "After I'd given you back to that chap wbo brought you. I sailed over to Duke to ask wbo you were, where I could meet you. Oh, I remembered your name all right, I Just hadn't associated It with the fisheries. But when Lansing said you were Luke Farnsworth'a daughter that finished It" "But why?" "Nlkkl. don't you see the differ ence It made, me a fisherman, and your father the cannery owner? Ob. I know this is America and there Is only democracy and the char woman's daughter marries the mer chant prince ... In stories." Anne looked at blm In growing wonder. 8be was the girl who gave Ufa a meaning to blm. And she'd never suspected it. But badn't she? Hadn't she known that that peculiar magnetic attraction be had tor her couldn't hare existed unless It was mutual? "And now?" The words left her Hps of their own volition. "Now?" he looked at her. "Now I'm Just where I was when you Jumped from the Ahtl that day. I couldn't believe my eyes when 1 saw It was you, and that I'd boen prlv Hexed to hold you In my arms for that brief moment" "Then John" "I'm still afraid, Nlkkl. You don't know yet, who you are. Nlkkll" h erled, for Anne had Jumped to her feet and after one quick Intake of her breath, had fled Into the she), ter of the woods. n UNN1NO blindly, cut to the quick by her Interpretation of John's words.

Anne sat down and stared before her In dismay. She, who bad thought herself cured of all love, had re peated her mistake In a scant fort' night Could she depend upon bei emotions? Perhaps she was merely fickle at heart, spinning like a mag netic needle to the nearest point ol attraction. With characteristic honesty she faced herself. She had been fascl. nated by Rob Crocker. Her pride had been satisfied by bis obvious preference for her when so many V " v: j A - 1 N in r i ii r . r V ft "Anne," John laid, "It't you I love.' other girls and women wore bidding for bis favor. And she bad wanted a borne of hor own, a place she might tend wltb her own hands. Hor emotional nature, unstirred by the passing lltrtatlons at school and abroad, had responded to the clover touch of the man of the world. But now she knew the difference. Nlkkl!" John waa calling. "Nlkkl, whore are you?" She heard footsteps on the othor sldoof the thicket, then the branches parted and John stopped through, trode across the grass and gathered ber Into bis arms. Nlkkl, forgive my blundering way of saying things. You didn't under stand, dear. It's you 1 love, you're worth all the names In the world." "But you wore right." Anne didn't fight against the blissful comfort of his arms. "1 don't know" Let me finish what 1 was going to any. You don't know that you're not Anne Farnsworth. You have only Tom Knrley's word for It If I dared hl;:k he was right, that you were Just Nlkkl, 1 could toll you all I've wanted to toll you." Rut, John, he Is right. 1 know. udgo Kellogg knows. Do you think the ,'udge would let them do what they've done If he wasn't sure? John. am Just Nlkkl." The pathetic loneliness tn her dark eyes broke down Nouman's Inst re serve. "And does a name mean so much to you?" "It means belonging to someone," she answered. Co p ir I fjM tfSS. by Jtann fioirmnn Their ItMvptskfno, tomorrow, ll both t4 md hippy.

Whciitver tliero is an rcllpF.e of the sun, the temperature of the affected area on earth drops slightly due to the fact that during tho ecllpae the rays of the aun arc shut off by the moon. This temperature drop 1 slight, and la hot noticeable to the average person. The earth la protected by its layer of atmosphere. The moon does not havo this pro tection, and Its surface temperature Is greatly affected py tho rays of the sun. Normally the surface tempera ture of tho moon Ij 250 dpftrees at the hottest point. During the few minutes that the sun la cut off in an eclipse of the moon, however, this temperature muy drup to 150 degrees below zero. In the June 14 eclipse of 1027, Beth B. Nicholson of Mount Wilson Ob servatory and others measured a drop of 345 degrees. When the moon was exposed to the sun's heat again, the tempernture began a awlft climb It increased 345 degrees in less than two hours. These measurements were made on a spot on the moon that has a normal temperature of 160 degrees. Strange as it seems, water conducts electricity only when there Is an Ionizing agent in it such as salt or acid. Pure water Is a non-conductor. but a pinch of salt or a little hydro chloric of sulphuric acid added to It allows electricity to pass through it.
