"At one time I havz2d this voyage," he said. "I couldn‘t see where it would lead to; excéept that I felt sure there would be disaster at the end. Bu I‘m beginning to change my mind. It‘s become an exciting adventure." for a lictle time," the girl said. It‘s alâ€" so good to feel that one is not being spied upon. They cannot see us from the bridge. so we can pretend that we ar>? absolutely alone. That will be splendic." "I think I am rather tired of advenâ€" ture," said Alla.

It‘s cime that we did <something, We are not strong enough to do it on our own, but I think Gallop will help us. We shall hav> ¢o fall in with his wishes to 1 certain extent. But I would rather have an alliance with Gallop than with others." Alla frowned. ... DECIDED TO COâ€"OPERATE "I‘m not over fond of him," she said slowly.

He would kill a man and still have that broad grin on his lips." "IT â€"know that said Peter quietly. I will have word with Gallop as soon as it is possible. Then we shall be able to discover if he has the revolver which you lost." Alla shook her head. "It was Doyle who tock it from me." she said decidedly. "You haven‘ proof," Peter reminded "I don‘t need it.I could tell when I saw â€" him this morning. There was something more in his smile. It told me more than he would be pleased to let me know." "Very well,we will assume that Doyle has the revolver. I am wondering how much of his quarrel his companâ€" icns was playâ€"acting. It struck me at the time that it was perfectly real, and I am inclined to believe that he was abâ€" sclutely genuin> abow this man Nunez. Certainly Sinclair did save us from the yacht. Oncâ€" we can get away from Nunez and the destroyer it wil be inâ€" testing to se> what Doyle will do. If he remains with his old friends it probâ€" ably means cthey will take the first opportunity of killing Wicks â€" and probobly the rest of us. Gallop will be safe for a time because I don‘t think any of them know a single thing about engines. They used sails. Doyle is the worst off, because he did the diving for them, and is ignorars of navigation. H> may throw in his lot with Wicks. I think our best plan is to let Gallop know that we will help him, and then se» what happens so far as Doyle is ‘concerned. If there is further «rouble tetwéen Sinclair and Wicks we will get Sinclair out of the way the instant it becomes possible. Then we can deal with the victor â€" in other, Wicks." By ALROY WEST H. R.

I think our first concsern, however, is our own safeâ€" ty. I don‘t bother as much abows the gold as I did at ons time. I begin to see how much damage it can do and â€" for all I care â€" it can go to the bottom "No I might â€" if you wanted it â€" go where you go," she said softly. The rest of what they had to say had no refersgnce to tlves trawler or Captain Wicks. In due course they wandered sack to the beach and found Gordon and Crockett waiting for them. They were rowed back and Peter wont down into the engineâ€"room to see Gallop. "How are things going?" he asked. Gallop wiped his hands on a piece 6. wast:s. "Not so badly. I‘m going to try her out shortly. Did you have a good time ashore?" gold as see how for all 1 Gallop rubbed his hands together. "What was the he» wanted ta know.

It makes things less complicated." Gallop gave a grin and nodded his h>ad. "I was hcping something like this weuld happen," he said.I don‘t think anything can be done at the moment. So much depends on what Doyle is tryâ€" ing to do. I shouldn‘t be all that surâ€" prised if he doesn‘t indulge in a very tricky hbit of doubleâ€"crossing. I‘m exâ€" pecting Sinclair and Foster to fade out of the picture as soon as we are right away from the yacht which has been chasing us." "That .. W thougsht.

"T‘ sdidn‘t,"‘â€"he::saidâ€" firmly.""So .1 should imagine that it was Doyle., He‘s the most likely one." "Agreed again," Peter commented. "I‘ll get back on deck now, or Wicks will be smelling a rat." "You can toll him that I‘d like to test the enginges very shortly." "Right you are." Wicks listened to the message and smiled his approval. "I‘m glad: of that," he conféessed., "I was very uneasy at being without power As time goes on the risk of being cornered by the yach: increases. Sinâ€" clair advises moving out before night. We‘ve decided on our course, and I think we shall be able to fool Nunez." "I hope so. I felt decidedly uncomâ€" fortable when the yacht was on the scene; for more than I did with the d2>stroyer. I should think she was too old to be able to get up much of a T YCC int?" "Exactly," Wicks agreed. Gallop announced that he was more satisfied with the engines, and ihe trawler made ready for leaving her anchorass. The lead was used as he left the harbour and reached the outer channell. Wicks was at the wheel, with Sinclair ‘beside him in order to help. Crocke<t was in the bows with the lead. Peter stood near to Doyle amidships. They rounded the point and come into the thannel. Doyle gave a cry of disâ€" ma * "She did better when we were lying to," Wicks reminded him. "I expect they keep on having engine trouble. That may be the reason why she didn‘t turn up chis morning. The yacht is sure to have sent a radio message. I thought that they would not be nosing round the islands. But Sinclair didn‘t seem:to be worried about it. He says that the yacht would not risk coming in, and that they couldn‘t open fire on us because of the shape of the bay." "That seems reasonable enough," Poter said..

As early as 1465, the the Spectacle Makers Guild took part in a review of merâ€" chans and craftsme>n before the Fronch King, but with elimination guilds, peddlers became the chief source of glasses for the general public. It was not until che later years of the century in Europe and the beginning of the eighteenth century in America, that optical stores came into existence. Optical Glass History Described by Speaker With the popularization of the telesâ€" cope by Galileo Galilei, in 1608, the problsms of grinding lenses for telesâ€" copes gave a fresh impetus co the lensâ€" grinding profession. It is aiso interâ€" esting to note that in 1602 colored glasses were used as a protection agains glare. The first lonses proâ€" duc>d in America were manufactured by the Bausch and Lomb Optical Comâ€" pany at Rechester, N.Y. tion, places glass manufacture as one of the oldest industries known to man. The spscimens taken from old tombs can in some cases be attributed with a fair dsgree of accuracy to the period of about 5,000 B.C., and it is known that the industry was well established in Egypt in 1500 B.C. In United~Statés® the glasscindustry dates back o 1607 when Captain John Smith established it in the Colony of Virginia, near Jamestown. â€" The first American attempt to manufacture glass for optical us> was made abowvw. 1889. Work was soon abandoned however, and the next attempt was made in 1912 at Rochester, N.Y. Some glass of fair quality was produced but it was nc tntil 1915 that glass of good quality was manufactured in quantity. _ Four types of optical glass are manufacturâ€" ed as the present timeâ€"Crown glass; Flint or lead glass; Barium and Baryta flint glass, and coloured glass, including tinted and special absorption glasses. Crown glass, the most widely used for lenses, is composed of 70 per cent. silica sand,> 13 per cent. lime and 16 per coni soda. The first and one of the mos, imâ€" portant steps in the manufacture of optical glass is to obtain a suitable pot or crucible in which to melt the glass. These posts are made by blending toâ€" gether a mixture of clays known as kaolin, ball clay and "grog" or burned clay, in proper proportions. Eleven months is required to complete the manufactiutre of one pces. The clay is aged for a period of thrce months to increase its strength and plasticity. The actual building of the pot requires two weeks, at the completion of which the crucible is allowed to dry for from six to seven months. They are then heated to a temperature of 2,000 deâ€" srees fanrenheit to dispel any moisture. Inco this pot is poured the raw materâ€" ials required. Chemically speaking the melting of glass consists of the fusing of an acid ingredient, (silica sand) \\xth an alkali, (soda, lime), the latter actâ€" ing as a flux to accelerate the me‘ving process. Approximately â€" twentyâ€"four hours is resuired to complete one "melt" and make the glass ready for rolling. When the glass has been cooled to a temperazture of 1,500 degreos farhen, heit, it is poured oult on a steel table where a roller platens the melt into a shest threcâ€"eighths of an inch chick. The sheet is then slid into an annsalâ€" ing oven and cooled gradually for eigcht hours to room temperature. . The purâ€" pose of gradual cooling is to prevent internal serain. on us o o es m an ces sn qo m C oo ce oo on ons i ocms uc ut s on t The existence of many specimens of ancient glass, dating back several thousand yvears to the earliest civilizaâ€" Optical glass, the requirements for which are very high, must be free from the fine streaks of glass of different composition occurring in the glass itâ€" self, bubbles, foreign particles cloud and milkiness. The absence of strain caused by improper cooling or annealâ€" ing is also of firss importance. The glass must have a high degree of cliarness and transparency and must romain clear when exposed to light. The glass is carefully examin»d and tested and passes through numerous inspections before being made into lenses. Mr. Rosner warned in closing his romarks however that many disâ€" carded lenses are offen purchased by certain firms and sold at low prices. W. T. Trennear, blind organist at the local United Church, was guest artist for the occasion. His vocal solo, "I Hear You Calling," and a Hungarian folk piano solo were much enjoyed. RAILWAY POLICE EFFICIENCY REDUCES FREIGHT ROBBERIFES Robbery claims paid in 1937 were a reduction of $155,842 or nearly 2.3 per cent less than those in 1936, and a deâ€" crease of $308,797 or 37 per cent. comâ€" pared with 1935. This reduction in claims due to robbery of freight in transit results largely from the increasâ€" ed efficiency of the police organization maintained by the railroads and the vigilance of these organizations in guarding the billions of dollars worth of freight which the railroads transport anually.
