marriages parties SOCIAL ACTIVITIES XHK LAND OF BEGINNING AGAIN. I wish that there were noon won-! dvrful place Called the Lund of Beginning Again, j Where all cur mistakes and all our | heartaches. And all of our selfish grief. Could be dropped like a shabby old I coat at the door, And never put on again. ■1 wish we could come on It all un- ■ a wares. Uke the hunter who finds a lost trail; I wish that the one whom our blind ness had done The greatest Injustice of all Could be at the gates like an old friend that waits For the comrade he's gladdest to bail. We could find all the things we In tended to do Eot forgot and remembered—too late; j Litt'f praises unspoken, little promises broken. And all o ft he thousand and one | Utile duties neglected that might have perfected The day sot one less fortunate. It couldn't be possible not to be kind ' In the Land of Beginning Again. And the ones we misjudge and the ones whom we grudged Their moments of victory here Would find in the grasp of our loving clasp Mote than penitent lips could explain. For what had been hardest we’d know has been best. Ar.J what had seemed loss would be gain; Fjr there isn't a sting that will not take wing When we've freed it and laughed it away; Arc I t' ink that the laughter is most wh-. wo’i? after In the Land of Beginning Again. So 1 w.ih that there were some won derful place Cj.ted the Land of Beginning Again. Where all our mistakes and all our heartaches, Ar.d all of our poor selfish grief Could be dropped like a shabby old coat at the door Ar.d never put on again.” Louisa Fletcher Tarkington.

CmT PS3LY DISPATCH, FRIDAY, JULY 1, 1982 nr TELEPHONE 610 Story of Mystery and Love in The CHAPTER 4% HOLMES RIPPED .‘UT a yell like a coiled spring unleashed. Pilly leaped up and grabbed Havia around the neck—in the excitement it meant nothing to her that he was prac tically naked. Pauo sat looking wonderlngly at the recaptured log book, seemingly unnable to comprehend that It was a reality, and not merely a wish-in spired dream. lone. Tom and 1 joined In the gen eral pandemonium. For several min ute* the uproar continued; every body talking at once and no one listening. Larry. Tom and I finally comman deered Havia away frorj the exuber ant Pilly. “Fella, for this job. you go down among the immortals,” Holmes shouted above the hub-hub. “How did you do it?** Pauo, 1 saw, was running through th“ book to make sure it was intact, lone and ffilly were standing over ber shoulder, both talking at once. Then Pauo got up and things Quieted down. She came ever and look both Havia* big hands in hers, and looking steadily into his eyes, anld simply: “I’ll remember this." Havia. I noticed now was breath ing easier. He seemed to have re covered from some almost super-hu man exertion. "How did you manage this?" she asked him. The man brok* into rapid Poly nesian, and talked for several min utes. Occasionally Pauo interrupted with a brief question in the same tongue. We sat silent, catching a word here and there in that fast flow of musical vowels, which largely make up the language. Finally she turned to us: "He does not. talk English as well as some,” Bhe reminded us. But here is his Btory: "He says that when they captured him he saw Livingston take the log book from Utato, he knew it didn't belong to him. Realizing It was ours, be planned to grab it. escape as soon as he could and bring it back here. "How did he get here?" Tom asked. “Swam." “Don’t tell me he swam 20 miles.” I Interrupted incredulously. “Why the English Channel Is only about that far and look at all the fuss they made a couple of years ago about swimming that," lone broke In. • "He could have done It as easily as you could have walked it," but as luck would have iC he didn't have to tonight. He came four or five miles," Pauo Informed us. “You see It was a lucky break for him that Livingston was close In here— he la lying over in the lea of Oomoa right now. or at least that was where he was apparently beaded for when Havia left them. I think this brought home to. all of ua a realization of what pygmies we were physically compared to those natives of the South Sea isles. Health rules and regulations didn't bother them. They bad bodies de veloped through centuries as nature Intended, tingling with health and strength, in which muscular and nervous co-ordination were perfect.

Myrtle Minor and little Elvin Falk ner returned home Saturday after visiting relatives in Durham. Mrs. Obie Robinson spent last Fri day with her mother, Mrs.Fmnk El —- Mr. and Mr*. H. H. Pvrkinacft, Mr*. I “tvs are interrupting me story." Holmes said. “Livingston and Utato have been | In the cabin working with the book ever since they left here. Havia says," Pauo continued. "It wasn’t until tonight that they both left the cabin for a moment with the book lying there, and he had a chance to grab It." How did he get the book wrapped water tight?” Tom asked. “He says they had some things wrapped In that silk, lying tucked away in the cabin, and he stole It several days ago for this purpose, along with squie parafine. He knew he would have to protect the book from the water or it would be use less.” I looked at Havla’s loin cloth and saw that It was still wet. I also re membered that when he had first coiue In drops of water had been glistening on his skin. Nearly naked, lie sat there absolutely unconscious of anything unconventional in his garb. The girls didn't seem to notice it. We had been longer in the island.-* by now, at least long enough to become accustomed to smooth, brown skin. “Wrapping that book was smart.” Larry commented. “Then?" "As soon as he gor Ills hands on the book he went into the galley, where no one happened to be at the moment, quickly wrapped 4t in the water-proof silk. In the meantime he had put his parafine In a ran on the galley fire. Then hastily he dropped it in the hot wax. sealing it, tied it to his head and quietly dropped into the sea.” "Lucky for him there was no one in the gulley at the moment.” I said. Pauo spoke to Havia in rapid Poly nesian again. “Waite a minute." she laughed. "There Is a cook on that boat who la going to have a sore head in the morning—” “Ah! Cold-crocked the cook,” Larry elucidated. “Correct. He hadn't been over the side but a couple of minutes when they discovered the loss of the book and a great shout went up. But as luck would have It. It was dusk and they didn’t see bis head a few hun dred yards away there In the water. He had his bearings and he kept swimming. The sea Is calm tonight and he came through the pass down by the village—” “Ixjrd.’T said. "He was only In the water a little over an hour. He must have been moving!" "An hour In Bhark infested water, to say nothing of devil fish wad that sort oT thing," lone shuddered. "He risked hi* life. Indeed,” Pauo told us quietly. “Outside the reef you can never tell about the sharks. The only thing he had In his favor was that he kept moving, and sharks are not so apt to attack moving bait —but one never knows! If they hap pen to be feeding and hungry, well —” she concluded with an expressive shrug. "You tell Havia we think he is a great guy," I advised. She spoke rapidly to htm, and he Bmiled his appreciation for the com pliment. <n “Livingston, had he caught htm stealing the book, would have been more deadly that all the sharks In the aea," Tom said dryly. Suddenly the picture of Llvlng- James Abbott and Misses Laura and Hunter Finch were the Monday visi tors of Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Abbott.

R TO 12 NOON Bton, with those cold, light blue eyes, and that sun dried, impassive face, stood out sharply. We knew Tom had spoken truth. “It strikes me we have work to do without wasting any time.” Larry declared meaningly. And so we went Into the living room, where our "work table" was shortly set up again. Just as we were seating ourselves Holmes said: "We had better call Pinga and have him post more guards around tills place, and order the rest to watch sharp. That skunk is so close 1 can smell him plainly, and it makes me uncomfortable." The suggestion was promptly carried out Then we fell to work with the old line-up. Tom and I translating and the others steadily decoding. This time we were getting the Important details—those vital flnai Instructions written a hundred years ago, and just now being erystalized or action. We all realized that as soon as w* got them worked out and fixed In our brains, nothing but death itseM could take them from ua There was no lost motion, and w« worked faat Shortly then Larry went around the table collecting th* finishes sheets, and sorting them, handed them to Pauo. She glanced briefly gt the page where she had been forced to stop, and re-read the beginning of the last sentence In a quiet voice for our ears only: To locate the one which leads to the higher chamber, look In the temple for a . , . winged ca noe with only five figures In It This will be found mid-way on the southern wall. The last pad dle Is movable. Push it to th« west and the device tor unlock ing the movable panel will bs found.

Your brother, EZRA WHITNEY. "We'll take the Sequoia, load hei with armed guards, and go to Tarea first thing in the morning," Pauo an nounced happily. But, as events were to turn out we were not to take the Sequoia, bu* then, of course, that we couldn’t foresee. That night was to live long in the memory of all of ua. and the dark hour* had just begun. fro BE CO\Tl\'UFn> Has Appendicitis Operation. Miss Heien Mills, daughter, of Mr. and Mrs. J. F.
