His only anxiety in the world seemed to centre rcund the engines. Ths only thought which he voiced was that Gordon was clumsy and might do some damage which could not be put right quickly. When it was safe to do so, Peter walked to Wellings, who was clearly becoming more and more uneasy as the hours went past. They sighted plenty of ships, and Wellings invariably watched them with longing eyes. Drew was not the only one to notice this. he overheard Howe chipping "I don‘t need anybody him. Wicks scowled. "That‘s what I don‘t trawler," he complained. small ons like this. I pr tra wit <mall sized rather bad luck that opportunity should come along at a time when Wicks had a new mate. Drew owed his job to the fact that Henry Benn, the mate of the Lady Luck, had met with an accident and would be in hospital for three or four weeks. He wondered now whether Benn was one of the crew who had sailed with Wicks in the John I9r ifhiree or weeks. He wondered now whether Benn was one of the crew who had sailed with Wicks in the John Dawson. After lighting his pipe he deft the cabin and went forward. Wellings was on deck and gave him a smile of welâ€" come. Petéer was about to move cver and speak to the man when he realized that Wicks could see him from the bridge.

We‘re going to have trouble before long. Lcok at those clouds!" Trouble did come. The wind inâ€" creased to a mcoderate gale. There were one or two fishing boats, and they started to make for shelter. Wicks remained on the bridge, alâ€" though it was not his watch. "See them?" he asked, pointing to the fishing craft. "They‘re running for shelter. Evidently they expect someâ€" thing worse." "Shouldn‘t think it could get much werse," Peter declared, as a glant wave seemed to fling itseld at the trawler. The water swept forward like a solid wall and then crashed down on the deck. Spray spattered against the fcremast and reached the bridge. Wicks hurried away to shout instructions. The deck was more than ankle deep in water. The trawler lurched from side to side and then seemed to shake herâ€" self free. too much to the cthers. They‘re not your frisnds, you know."

"But they wouldn‘t believe me!" Welâ€" lings complained. "They only believe you if you‘ve enough money to pay a smart lawyer to tel lies for you. I shquldn‘t stand a chance. Maybe they‘d send me to Dartmoor without so muth as bothering to give me a The onslaught of the long waves beâ€" came monctonous. At first there was a wild sort of joy in fighting against the storm. The sight of the water crashing down on the deck inspired awe. But these feelings passed. It beâ€" came a monotonous reiteration of misâ€" ery and dampness. Every second or so the ship dived down into what seemed a bottomless abyss. The sky became darker and soon litâ€" tle was visible except the driving rain and the spray. Wicks came on the bridge and took the wheel. "You go below." he said. "It is my see agaln pretly sOQn. LIKG aSs not 11 we do get back we shall all be chucked into prison."

It seems that the young schgol girls and boys have certainly beaten their parents as far,.as poems go. For not one parent soâ€"far has professed to have a favourite poem, while several children, of ages varying from six to the High School student, have eagerly come forward to say that they like THIS PARTICULAR poem. And sureâ€" ly the parents, and other older people, have read pgems that they have treasâ€" ured. Don‘t you remember those days at schcol, when, no matter if you did think that you hated poetry and ‘"memâ€" ory work," there was. always one poem that ‘had a special appeal for you? Think back, cnd â€"surely, if no other poem, you will think of "The Villafge Blacksmith‘"‘ (because it was so easy to memorize!). Here is a poem that the writer found hidden away in the back of an old school book. My Little Tease A mischievous fairy, With step light and airy Has just pulled my hair, and is running away ; Two rows of baby pearls, Head full of yellow curls, Brimfull of mischief she‘s thaight of all day.

United Church Bean Supper A most enjoyable bean supper was held in the Ansonville United Church on Thursday evening, under the ausâ€" pices of the Liadies‘ Aid. Many of Helen‘s friends viewed her gorgeous trousseau, and remarked on its exquisite beauty, expressing their best wishes for her happy future. "What?" Peter demanded. "CGrockert was dropping a belaying pin over the side. I did wonder why he did it. Then, of course, I realized. Wellings was becoming rather difficult. 1 imagine." Peter‘s mouth went dry. "Â¥%ou mean theyâ€"they murdered him?

Trousseawy Te: A delightful trousseau tea was held by Mrs. T. J. Hogg, for the many friends of her daughter, Miss Helen Hogg, who is leaving for Montreal, where she is to be married in the near future. Duringâ€"the evening, Mr. T. J. Hogg, on behalf of the council, presented Mr. Parker with a lovely silver comport dish, in appreciation of his services to the town. With a fitting response, Mr. Parker mentioned that he had enjoyâ€" ed working here, and hoped for the tewn‘s continued success. "1 expect so. It‘s bad encus Wicks to have to waich you.
