My second leave was spent for the most part at a garage in the neighbouring town near the village where we lived. I positively dreamt of carburettors, magnetoes, and how to change tyres! The remaining three of my precious fourteen days were spent in London enjoying life and collecting kit and such like.

The world, spurning Judy O'Grady, sanctions the Colonel's lady, and their sisterhood becomes socially negligible. Randy should have known that he could not sweep George Dalton away with a word. Perhaps he did know it, but he did not care to admit it. He and Nellie Custis were in the garage.

"He probably didn't light but one light in the garage and didn't notice it." "Sounds likely," snorted Hugh. "Take my advice and watch 'em both." "They're just as faithful as you or I," exclaimed Bob. "You can't talk me into getting suspicious of those two." "The faithful ones are the ones to suspect," said Hugh grimly. "Nonsense," said Bob, but his friend's words nevertheless set him to thinking.

"Well," I observed, my eye catching a ladder beside the garage, "there's a ladder. We can do no more than try." He walked over to the automobile, took a little package out, slipped it into his pocket, and a few minutes later we had set the ladder up against the side of the boathouse farthest away from the house.

I found that a hired car from a garage at Thirsk was awaiting the lady, who, I learned from the young footman, had given her name as Madame Martoz. A quarter of an hour later she drove away without, so far as I could discern, having seen either Duperré or his wife.

We were four when we met you and now we are three!" On the third morning the rain stopped for an hour or two. Fanny had no run till the afternoon, and going into the garage in the morning she set to work on her car. "Where can I get water?" she asked a man. "The pump is broken," he replied. "I backed my car against it last night.

Linda crawled from under the car and stood up, wiping her hands on a bit of waste. "Do you know what tires cost now?" she asked anxiously. "They have 'em at the garage," answered Donald, "and if I were you, I wouldn't get a set; I would get two. I would-put them on the rear wheels. You might be surprised at how long some of these will last. Anyway, that would be the thing to do."

He knew he had been flung into the garage and was resting there on the hard cement floor. He could neither feel nor see any machine, nor was there probably the slightest prospect of his getting out unaided. Those fellows would never have left him there without guard, had they dreamed any escape was possible. The girl had affirmed the building was constructed of stone, two feet thick.

Arrived in the main street they left the motorcycle at a garage, and strolled on to the promenade, joining the crowd of holiday-makers who were sauntering along in the heat, or sitting on the benches watching the children digging in the sand below. Much to Ingred's astonishment she was suddenly hailed by her name, and, turning, found herself greeted with enthusiasm by a schoolfellow. "Ingred!

Lloyd eagerly. "And how soon? We have been saying what WONDERS could be done for the Hall with a little money." "The price didn't seem to worry her," said George Carew. "Oh, she's coming," Barry assured them; "you can consider it settled." "Good!" said old Mrs. Apostleman in her deep, emphatic voice. "She'll have to make the house over, of course; but the stable ought to make a very decent garage.
