I was uit making mention of the fact thai ha was here. Well be getting back from Prince Ruppert to aaa him fight, though, If you're inter acted." "Not Interested. No busman! holiday for me. rm vacationing, you know." "What about that book you're writing?" "Oh. that rm Just going t oak up loads and loads of atmos phere, ril do the actual writing later on. Which reminds ma . . . , If e been years and years sine I've been aboard the "Bene.' Don't you think you'd better take me on little tour of Inspection and In troduce me to the crew?" ' "Okay, Matey, lefi abort off. Dont suppose you've gone to tea much since you left Frisco." , "You're wrong there. Captain Hansen. I've spent my last four summer vacations sailing and yachting up around Maine. Tm not the landlubber you think X am." He rubbed his chin. "Betcha my , spare peg leg you had a lot of classy, blue-blood shipmates up that way, though. The hands aboard the "Northern Belle have a different cut to their Jib, as you'll probly find out Rough, tough, cussln. sea-farm men. Think you can handle th situa tion?" he Inquired humorously. -. She stopped short, feet spread and hands oa hips. "I can '"nil any situation, anytime, Steve Han sen, and dont you think differ- antly for on minute." He looked at her and mentally agreed. e gHX bubbled oa excitedly aa they made the rounds, finally In a mora serious veint "What's going up this trip, Stevie, and whafre ,. we bringing back?" ' I A alight frown flitted over his face. "Except for soma prettf Valuable mining machinery, we're going up rather light" -f "Mining machinery?" aha echoed. "Consigned to whom?" i "Outfit .called Halliday He- ' aouioea, They control mora mines and lumber than is good for one iaompany to have. They need this machinery in a big hurry. On th' trip back we're going to load up with a hold full of spruce and fir. They've about promised your Unci Hank that they'll give him year's contract en an their ship ping if they like our service." "Swell! Great! Ifs In the bag, Btova." "Hope so, honey. : Tour uncle needs that contract It'll help us recondition a couple of the older hips in the line. If we don't get em in shape soon we're liable to have trouble with the govment" "But Eteve, there's no reason why wa can't give 'em as food service aa they can get on the , coast Or is there?" she asked lowly, noticing the look on his face. ' "No there lsnt It's Just that this is so goldarned important and so much can happen before we get to Prince Rupert and back again We we've been havln' a lot of tough luck lately." "What kind of tough luck. Bteve?" . . "Oh, no thin that you ought to be worryin' about You Just think o' havin' a good time and enjoyin' yourself for the next couple weeks. Although, frankly, I can't ee how a gal like you is going to have much fun on a dirty old tub like this. There won't be any fancy salads at mess, an' you won't have any perfumed bath alts. You'll have a salt bath, in stead." She was indignant "Captain Hansen, Tm surprised at you. In the first place I'm not going to let you call the 'Northern Belle a tub, and it isnt dirty, either. You know darned well it's spotless ran stem o stern and and in side out, or whatever It is they call a ship from top to bottom." He chuckled heartily and put a huge arm around her waist "Speaking of salads, you've seen lust about everything but the gal ley. C'mon, you've got to meet Wong Lee." "Steve, I've been thinking,' she said slowly as they crossed the afterdeck. "In view of the fact that this voyage is a little more important than the others let's forget about me being first mate. It . . . well, it was Just sort of a gag, anyway, and I'd Just be in the way. Tell you what HI sign on as purser and give you a hand with business affairs." "Here I had Barney MacGregor all smoothed over for nothing. . . . And you up and resign before wa even sail." "Incidentally, Stevie. when do We lift anchor?" "Two bells, nromnt ThaPa O o'clock to you. We're Just about loaded now." They entered the galley and Hansen beckoned to a grinning Oriental. "Val. .this is Wong aa. He puts out the best mulllnn stew on the coast Trouble is, wa told him we Ilka It That was our mistake. Now wa get it every night." "Claptaln Hansen tell ma you come. Missy. He make me bluy new cookbook to make fancy one in while. Yes?" He grinned still wider ana val had a faint suini clon that aha was being the re cipient of a gentle Jibe. A look at Hansen a face convinced her. "Thanks, Wong," she aaid, "but we wont be any fancier the next two weeks than we have been. But if you DO want a good Dutch Apple pie soma time, Just let me know, and I'll show you how it's none." "Me call." e e e JT was shortly before dinner that Val, hearing a commotion out side tier cabin, opened the door to hear Hansen swearing softly. "What's up Steve?" aha asked quickly. "Plenty," he snapped. "Three of the crew Jumped ship. We were short-handed as it was, too. Cant sail tonight without replacements and wa cant sign on anyone until morning." "But Steve, we've got to sad tonight We cant afford to wait until morning and you know it What what'U wa do, Steve?" "In th old days," he growled, "we'd shanghai 'em. But these alnt th' old days. They make the laws stick today." Her eyes glistened. "Steve . . . lefs!" "Let's what?" Shanghai 'em! Oh. dont be a fussy old softie. YouH probably be doing three loafers a big favor, anyway. Make men of 'em." "Hey . . . hey! Wait a minute, ha said hastily, noticing her ex pression.. "You cant do that any- more. That's . . . thafs piracy, they'd hang us from tha yerd- arml" "Oh. Steve . . . c'mon. Just for me. Don't you want ma to have some fun?" . . He looked at her again. And then came the Idea. "Okay, Matey. It's your party." (To Be Continued) Tha city of Boston, in 1899, dosed Its parks to automobiles between the hours of 10 a. m. and 8 p. m., because of the many run away horses. OUT OUR WAY By J. R.
