Once outside the little seaside vil- lage, he turned off the main road and took the one through the pines inland. Wanda stole a glance at him again, at the clean-cut, almost stern profile beside her, and then at his hands and the way they gripped the wheel. “You don’t really mind my going, do you, Courtney? she asked tenta- tively. “Not at all now,” Courtney returned cordially. “Halbert’'s very fond of Peggy. I think he might have married her him- self some time if she hadn't chosen Captain Minturn.” Courtney smiled at the ribbon of road unwinding before them. His eyes were half closed. He knew every inch of this road. And every mile was tak- ing them from Pinehurst and the boat landing. Yet he waited to make sure. It was at the fourteenth mile that he slipped a lever wrong and the machine stopped. With a quick apology he sprang out and started to tinker away at the car. Her ladyship chatted for a few min- utes, waiting expectantly, but as the minutes flew by she glanced around curiously at the enfolding hills. “Courtney, are you really trying to fix the car or just—" . He 'sat up in the road, his cap on the back of his;head, and smiled at her. “You're not fixing it at all, are you? That's what you call it over here, isn’t it, fixing instead of repairing? Won't it go at all?” He shook his head contentedly.

They are my friends and if I choose to go with them it is absolutely my own affair.” “Dear, you are not quite nineteen,” said Courtney gently. “Halbert put you in my care and I can’t conscientiously let you chase down the coast with Peg- gy and have her marry you off to any other crowd.” “You mean Kent?” in her face quickly. Courtney nodded. «I know the whole thing, Wanda. 1 heard Kent bet that he would marry you before you returned to England. You know as well as I do that old Halbert is in debt to him badly. It was part of his game to make him so. It gave him a surety of his consent to his winning you, and I couldn't stand that sort of thing.” Wanda stood before him, white now, her hands clenched at her sides. It had all been a lark, her wanting to go with Peg. She had not really cared, but when he had made an is- sue of it, it had amused her to win the point over him. Even though she knew Kent Paxton was going, she had not realized what it might mean. “You see, dear,” he went on slow- ly, “it isn’t just for Halbert's. sake, either. It’s for your own. You know that, don’t you, Wanda? 'I haven't been able te get word out to your brother yot, but there's been a little run of luck for him, some money out of a Mexican deal that has seemed dead. We are both in an it, and T solc out our interest last week. Theres enough to pay up Kent. You needa’t catch the boat.” . She caught the underlying bitterness beneath his words and stretched out her hand to him. “Qh, Courtney, I do need you—" “Of course, if you really want to go yet” he added unsteadily, “the ma- chine isn’t really out of commission. I can get you there. But I want you to come back with me.” Her hands were laid against his lips firmly. Courtney met her gaze with eyes that told all that was in his mind, and Wanda laughed softly, her’ own glanct wavering. “Ive decided to go back,” she said.

Prof. Edward S. Meany of the Uni versity of Washington is arousing pub- lic interest in the memory of old Chief Pat Kanim of the Snoqualmie and Sno- homish Indians. Chief Pat, a stanch friend of the early whites, is one of the forgotten heroes of pioneer days, and Professor Meany wants his grave marked with a suitable monument. In the days when settlers had rea- son to fear the lurking red foes in the deep forests, Chief Pat Kanim’s people were powerful where Everett now stands. It is not known just when the chief died, but he was buried on a bank of the Snohomish river. When the grave was threatened by the overflowing river, relatives moved the remains to the little cemetery on the Tulalip Indian reservation, where many of the tribes: he ruled in power now live in humble homes. ton” tells of the chief's craftiness in driving Glasgow and Rabbeson from the first settlement on Whidby island in 1848. He made a great drive with dogs, and secured sixty deer for 8 feast of assembled warriors. He coun- seled in favor of driving the white men out of the country. Glasgow and Rabbeson went back to Tumwater, and the next year Pat Kanim led an assault .on Fort Nis qually. While ‘Pat Kanim was par- leying inside the stockade,his brother was killed leading an attack by the Indians. Pat Kanim was spared, and in 1850 he made a trip to San Fran- cisco in a sailing vessel. What he saw on that fourney made him re- solve to bedgiie a friend of the white man. He faithfully lived up to that | resolution for the rest of his life.
