What was lie doing here 7 She had written him that she could not meet him until next Monday. "Want to send him a message? It can be done." "No," said Roberta, feeling Instantly that he thought she was afraid her father might see her and ask questions. ques-tions. "I can manage my own affairs, thanks." "Absolutely," agreed Sir George and moved away. To her astonishment he went through the doorway and toward the house. Roberta was so amazed that she could not make even the faintest more to stop him. She was annoyed. She was quite unused to such treatment treat-ment Here was she, the only girl he knew, apparently, this side of the Atlantic, any way the only girl he knew in this place, and Instead of improving im-proving the shining hour, he came to her and delivered his message as casually as though they were two schoolboys and then walked off and left her I Roberta walked slowly toward the beach and the bridge. Jack had seen her sow. He moved toward her. He looked worried. Was he afraid of her father? Why hadnt he come directly to the Island and asked for her, like any other boy she knew? The sunlight sun-light struck across his face, and showed Iter lines she lad never seen, before. Why, he was much older than she bad thought He was not a boy, he was a man. Jack stood his ground near a tall sycamore and a thicket of sumac which screened him. He beckoned to her eagerly.

"Wouldn't you like to try a bit of exerciser Sir George asked. "Suppose, "Sup-pose, you take my arm." y "Maybe Td better," MacBeth agreed reluctantly, "though I'm dashed unwilling un-willing to stir. Well, once around, if you're .bent for exercise." "Once around It Is," Sir George told him encouragingly. "We'll have you dandng In no time." It would give the girl a chance, Sir Georgo thought . to, . himself, his eyes aeeking'the path to the bridce. Yes, there she went. It might' be that the rt?;NfMTiyL.to to wan hs father, but he could not bring himself to do it The girl was plucky. She had not asked him to keep quiet or anything of that kind. He could either keep his mouth shut, or go to Waxes for all of her. Well, he would keep his mouth shut Slowly and painfully, leaning heavily on the strong young arm that supported sup-ported him, Robert MacBeth made his way along the terrace. When they reached his chaise longue again, he relaxed gratefully as the younger man helped him to a comfortable position, and arranged his pillows. There was a short silence. Sir George lit a cigarette and leaned against the wicker chair be Intended to slide Into In a moment He could not see the girl now, and the car had disappeared. Robert MacBeth had taken up a letter he had laid down Just before hie promenade. He handed It to his secretary. "What do you think of thatT It was a typewritten letter addressed to "Rob't MacBeth" and said : "Dear Sir: Do you know the man your daughter is meeting at different resorts on the Lincoln highway? Many facts In your life are known to the writer of this, which you would not like to find public property. If yoti want to know all the writer knows send letter to the P. O.

Robert MacBeth made a wholly contemptuous con-temptuous gesture with Ms hand, which still held the letter. "Use your head. I can't pay laborers by check. Lots of the foreigners don't know what to do with checks. No, we've got to make and keep things safe ourselves." He looked at Sir George, and, leaning lean-ing toward him and in a low tone, said: "It's all right In New York. I can get protection, armored cars If need be, but Tve a hunch thera's trouble brewing for me and I've got a great many thousands of dollars to pay out on the big piece of construction construc-tion work being done up the river. It's how to get the money there safely that Is puzzling me now." He paused a moment and said quietly: quiet-ly: "I don't mind telling you that I have the sum deposited. In the nearest local bank. I'm going to send some ' one down to collect it from the bank , later and that some one may be you." He looked at Sir George questlonlngly, "Yes, of course, but when and howr "That's what I want you to tell me, rd like you to go down with Roberta today and look over the lay of the land." "Can't yonr man take mer Sir George asked. "Might find out more that way." "I don't want the servants to know or suspect anything about It nor the people In the village. In fact, I dont want anybody to know anything about it, except possibly Roberta." "Must she know? Why drag a girl Into thlsr "Roberta won't be dragged In," her father promised him. "But I want her to take you down the river to the bank and up the river to show you where the money is to be taken." "By motor?" "Yes." "But you surely wouldn't let the girl drive if there was likelihood of danger." "No, but you could drive yourself, once you knew the way." Oh, yes." "Well, go with her to the village and to the bank, where she will cash a ; check arid Introduce -yon to the cashier. Then tomorrow shell take you up the river." "Have you told her thlsr "Not yet Why?" "It's barely possible she may have made arrangements of her own." "She'll change that If I ask her," her father said easily. "Ah" Sir George was not aware himself of how much he put In that "Ah." It was sufficient to make Robert MacBeth Mac-Beth turn his head quickly and survey the young man. naving turned it he saw that the young man-'s eyes were fixed on ft spot of blue'. ' Macbeth was presently able to observe that this j-jaa Ara&n,,the.4!8-coadv n the mainland and that opposite that car was a dli blur that had a bronze color. He- remembered the color of the dress his daughter had been wearing wear-ing that morning and turned his head so that the younger man might not see lila face. Sir George continued to watch the bronze blur until It tool-shape tool-shape and outline and began to look like Roberta MacBeth. Then he started, aware that the silence had been long. "You were saying?" "In national legislation the Shep-pard-Towner Infancy and Maternity act and the Cable bill are directly traceable to women's efforts. The 8hepard-Towner act passed in 1921, authorized an appropriation for the promotion of maternal and Infant welfare and hygiene. "It followed the discovery that this rich land was losing more. babies during their first year and more mothers in childbirth, than were lost In most of the civilized countries. "in 1927, after, a half. dozen., years of the special medical education made possible by the law' and ministrations ministra-tions of state nurses In remote sections, sec-tions, 24,500 babies survived their first year who would have died if the ratio of 1921 had continued.
