Like in "Grand Hotel" these passengers offer a study in human actions and re- actions which unconsciously bare their souls. . . . These characters are aboard the ship: Macduff, dour Scotchman, single, of middle age; Miss Mudge, school teacher, spending the savings of 20 years; Angela, faithful wife of Lovat, gigolo; Dick harlton, first offi- cer; Clare, a person of experi- ence; Joan, a dissipated flapper; Jenny, run-away wife, and Peter; Captain Baring, master of the ship ... and his soul. . . NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY. CHAPTER IX J^tealthily Joan started tow;ard Dick s stateroom, then stopped to survey the situation. The rotunda WAS rather wavery tonight. She dawdled among the plants, dipping her finger-s in the water. She must remember sometime to catch a Koldfish and take it to her room. Mr. Stein had told her that he had put one in his pocket, and it had wipjrled so much that he had flung it overboard into the sea. Joan laughed out loud. She liked peo- ple who did things like that. Joan moved slowly away from the foun- tain and knocked at Dick's door. It wa.s opened at once, but not in a friendly way.

"I want to talk to you. Let me in." Dick looked down the corridor; he was annoyed. "All right, then, come in, but you've no business to come here. I've told you so repeatedly." Joan straightened up. "Don't be ridiculous, Dick," she told him, solemnly. "I can't think why you're so severe. You're not cut out to be a reformei*." She walked in, ignoring his frowning brows, and seated her- .>:elf on the sofa. Taking her time about it, she crossed her legs and lit a cigarette. "Got any brandy?" she .isked. "Yes," said Dick, shortly. "Want some?" He poured out two liqueurs and drank his own in sips. "Why aren't you crossing In- dia?" he asked her. "Bccau^s<j I didn't want to." what did she mean by thai? He watched her thoughtfully. "Tell me about yourself, Joan," he said, abruptly. All About Yourself "Tell you what?" "Oh, everything â€" who you are, what you are, why you arc? Don't think me rude, I'm interested." "Do you care, really?" "I'd like to know. It might help me to understand you." "Old Southern family, boarding- .schools, beaux, plenty of money one day, and not a sou the next," said Joan, flippantly. "And love in abundance, if that's what you choose to call it. It's been hectic enough, but not very satisfying." Dick watched the pulse that throbbed in her throat, the ripe- ness of her lips, her disordered red hair, the shadowy hollow of her bosom. "I've never done anything with my life," Joan went on, "just messed about, staying up late eveiy night and sleeping every morningâ€" killing time in between. Restaurants, speakeasies, the thea- tre and places to dance â€" forget- fulness for a little while. I was caught in a tannic of excitement before I knew what I was doing, Dick, and here I am, gay at night, and ready to kill myself when I waken up in the morning." Joan held up her glass, watch- ing it through the light with fin- gers that trembled. She walked over and sat on the arm of Dick's (IJ7J) llrinm clrao.

Al ways meaning to make things bet- ter, always sinking a little lower. She curved her arm around his neck and leaned her cheek against his temples. Gently she stroked his hair, and let her lips stray over his face in caressing butter- fly ki-sses. Dick sat without mov- ing, until her mouth reached his. Then he seized her firmly and swung her into the circle of his arms. "Cherub," he murmured, "you get your way, don't you? I ought to slap you, but instead you've forced me to make love to you," He caught her roughly in his arms. Thrill of the Chase Kcxt morning he regarded her coldly across the breakfast table in the dining-room, regretting his impulse of the night before. Joan looked appealingly at him across the table, dimly aware of his thoughts. What did love mean to her, anyway? Nothing, except the excitement of the chase. It was really only when she was tipsy that she abandoned herself to the more advanced stages of love. What a long procession of men had loved her once, and slip- ped out of her life, while she waited at home for their telephone calls! It sickened Joan to think of it. She had been jilted so often that fear was a fixation with her now. Yes, she was a mess. Now Dick ! Joan helped herself to marmalade and thought that he was the most attractive man she had ever known â€" just as she had suspected. He did not need her at all; that was painfully obvious. She envied people who knew how to run their lives and control their own destinies. Dick was looking at her search- ingly. Miserable, she turned away from his sagacious scrutiny. Sud- denly Dick felt touched. It gave him no pleasure to see anyone unhappy or disappointed. He knew, from his experience with women, that the worst hurt of all was frustration, for it touched them in their pride. Besides .she couldn't help it. A Pledge Taken "Joan," he said, catching her arm as she left the dining-room, "I want you to take the pledge for a little while and behave your- self." "Don't be funny," she said. Dick shook her impatiently. "Don't wise-crack, Joan. It does- n't become you. I'm in earnest. You've got to stop drinking, and I'm going to make you." She flashed him a wistful glance. "It's no use, Dick; I'm sunk. It's the only relief I have. I'd do anything for you, but not that." (To Be Continued) Halifax Women's Flying Squadron Creates Precedent â€" Believed First of Its Kind in Canada Believed to be the first In Canada, a flying stiuadrou for women has hecn organized In Halifax, Includ- ing high school pupils, stenograph- ers and clerks.

Pressing Points NVhcn pressing your clothes, never rest the iron on the right side of your material, as this will cause a shine. Most pressing is done on the wrong side. If it is necessary to press the right side always cover with a prei^sing cloth. Be sure your iron is not too hot when you start to press a dress. Thcr« are few marks harder to remove from a garment than scorch, aside from the fact that it weakens your material. Heavy materials can stand a hot- ter iron than thin. Rayon ma- terials should be pressed with a warm iron. According to po^crnment fore- casts, the strawberry crop will be a bumper one this year. The har- vest has been retarded by the frost but it is expected that by the middle of June, supplies of straw- berries will be plentiful.
