Miss Doncaster." When they came alongside, the rail was lined above them. A sailor gave Mary a hand up, cupping her foot In his palm, and Captain Keen reached down to help her. On deck, Mrs. Gale bad a long coat to put around the girl. Mrs. Gale said: "Run and change, Mary." But the girl stayed a mo-ment to be sure George was all right. They were rigging a whip to hoist him aboard, since he was still too weak from the shock of his im-mersion to help himself. The mate and the sailors watched him grave-ly. Mary, understanding that he would not want her to see him thus, went below, leaving him to other hands. George even when he was safe on deck was barely able to stand. John Gale said to him: "Well, it's lucky for you Miss Doncaster was aboard." "Yes. I'd have drowned. Where is she?" "In her cabin, changing." "I want to thank her." "Later. The first thing is dry clothes for you. and a noggin of faction. "I think that's the first question I ever heard you ask," sha declared. "Yes, of course I do. After alL I've only been away eight or nine years." "You seem glad to come back." "Of course! I'm coming back to my home, to my father and moth-er! This is where I live, really. I Just went away to school, you know. I lived with my aunt In New Bed-ford. Aunt Patty Hanline. Uncle Tom was away all the time; only came home twice. He's mate on the Venturer, Cap'n Coir's whaler." George echoed: "A whaler?" He said with a strong distaste: "Cork-ran- 's told me stories about the whalers, the whaleships. They've ruined these islands." "Whalers aren't so bad. New Bedford's full of them. The Ven-turer is a fine ship. I know Cap'n Corr. His sons are mates aboard her. I knew them both In New Bed-ford. Peter was in the same school with me; and Richard too, for a while, years ago. He went to sea as cabin boy first, and then came home and came to school for two years, and then went fourth mate with his father again." Her eyes were dancing, amused at his ex-pression. "I thought Richard was pretty wonderful, and Peter too, of course. Richard was so shy be hard-ly looked at me, but I worshiped him. You know how little girls are."

"Or big ones, either, do you, Mr. McAusland," she chal-lenged; and then she told him quick-ly: "But maybe you'll see them. Richard and Peter, I mean. Cap'n Corr promised to put in at Gilead to see my father and mother on this voyage. Mother's Uncle Tom'a sister. Maybe we'll find them at Gilead when we get there. I hope so." He asked In curiously thick tones: . "Why? Because you want to see your uncle again?" "I want to see them all of course," she said. He said, after a moment, almost wistfully: "I've never known young men. My brothers were a lot older than I." "I know," she assented softly. "You haven't known young women either, have you?" "No." She said, smiling In the darkness, as though he were a child: "I knew you wanted to be friendly with me, but you didn't quite know how." "I want to be friendly with every-one!" "But specially with me, a little, don't you?" she urged. "Only you're sort of afraid?" "I don't think so!" he protested, L "Oh, but you are," she Insisted. "You're afraid to do the things you want to do." He swung toward her as though startled; but someone spoke behind them. Suddenly George sneezed. "You'd better go below, hadn't you?" she suggested. "You've taken cold." He blew his nose. "I'm afraid I have." They went aft together. Mrs. Gale prescribed hot lemonade, but George protested that he was all right, till he sneezed again. Then he consented to go below. During the days that followed, John Gale was pleased to see that having taken the plunge, George no longer avoided Mary. They were much together, as often forward as on the after deck. Under Corkran's instructions they practiced rope work and listened to his tall tales. Mary led him to talk of whaling; and sometimes Corkran told of bloody battles with Leviathan that made George's pulse pound, and sometimes he made them laugh to-gether in a gleeful incredulity. But the girl stayed a moment to be sure George was all right. rum. You're blue with cold. Come along." George followed obediently; but he refused the rum. He shook with a teeth-chatterin- g chill till he had rubbed himself dry and glowing. Then he lay down under blankets to warm himself, and slept till John Gale came to rouse him for supper. "All right?" the older man asked. "I thought you were probably asleep, needed sleep more than any-thing." "Yes, I'm fine. I'll be along." But he was slow in dressing, dreading the necessity of meeting Mary and of thanking her. When he came out into the main cabin, the others except John Gale and the Captain had finished supper and were already on deck. "Gone to watch the sunset," the old minister explained. "It promised to be fine." George was relieved at this post-ponement; but when he and John Gale presently went on deck the sun was gone, the sky fading fast to the deep blue of night he faced his duty. Mary was in the waist with Mrs. Gale. He went toward them, and they saw him coming, and Mrs. Gale asked: "All right now?" "Fine," he told her. She said some approving word and went aft, leaving him alone with Mary. He wished to ask Mrs. Gale to stay; turned to face Mary reluctantly.

At dawn they were close aboard, or seemed to be, although still ten or twelve miles distant Mary was with Captain Keen, and George joined them and asked a question; and Mary said: "We'll come to a big bay present-ly, with room for a hundred ships. It runs deep into the Island, over two miles, and there's a small is-land in the mouth of the bay, so there are really two ways in. The bay narrows all the way to the beach at the inner end. You'll see!" Her eyes were happy with anticipation. "Father and Mother will come out to meet us," she pre-dicted. "Will they be keeping a lookout?" "Oh no, but someone will see us." She pointed ahead. "That's the en-trance, Cap'n Keen. You can't see it yet, but that rock that looks like a hill with no trees on it is the island in the mouth of the bay." The Captain asked: "We go In south of it, don't we?" "Whichever's easiest, according to the wind. There's deep water ev-erywhere, even close in to shore. The best holding ground is about a mile this side of the beach." Captain Keen nodded. Mary went forward, George with her; and she pointed out to him things familiar to her eyes, which his could not ye' perceive. (TO BE CONTINUED) smiled, understanding, and said quickly: "It's all right. You needn't thank me." "I want to," he told her, blurting out the words; and then he spoke the phrase he had decided was most suitable. "I owe you more than I can ever pay." Mary smiled. "I'm glad you feel so much in debt to me. It will be fun to have you try to pay. Be very nice to me, won't you?" But then she relented, seeing his em-barrassment, and said quickly: "It wasn't anything, really. I could have kept you afloat all day." "I'm sorry you had to . . ." He hesitated. "Well, I mean . . . Well, I know how brave you were, how hard it was to do what you did." Mary frowned" a little, puzzled, and then suddenly understanding. 'Oh, you mean because I took off a few petticoats?" He insisted stubbornly: "I know hat it must qave meant to you." She touched his hand. "You're sweet; but honestly, I didn't mind. I didn't even think of it Naturally I couldn't swim in a lot of petticoats." And she said, faintly amused: "You know, Mr. McAusland, you'll have to learn to look at so many things differently on the Islands; to learn new ways." "I hope instead of learning their ways, I can teach them ours. Do you remember a lot about your childhood down here?" She looked at him in a quick a a lis-jgttoadside to.
