A BUBBLE PRICKID
Pbllowed s moment of silence, at first bewildered, then turning Usdually to horrified. Sir George was the first of the party to achieve coherent statement.
“What on earth are you tall:- ing about, Carol?" he demanded. “This is in. execrably bad taste, if nothing worse."
The others — all but Janet Man- eon, whose expression was calm- ly inscrutable-fidgeted uneasily on their feet, and exchanged looks of acute embarrassment.
But Carol was facing her father qlllle coolly, and Janet Manson noticed that for the first time since they had returned from Africa, her expression was un- troubled.
"It's no use, I tell you," she re- peated. quietly. "on, 1 know 1 BEreed to bolster the story up in the first instance. There was ‘Tony's mother to be considered, and the old proverb ‘de mortuis’, snd all the rest of it. And We'd all liked Tony a good bit at dif- ferent times—particularly me."
Sir George Manson exploded,
"mlslierlnfl ilDI" he burst out. "What he did spoke for itself. He took the opportunity of you and Larrlmore being asleep to go out into the desert and sthoot himself to save the pair of you. It's the finest thing of its kind since Cap- tain Oates."
"The newspapers have reminded us of that quite sufficiently, l illlnk." said Carol wearlly. “And it was lucky for you, wasn't it, father? It quite froze the story of the failure of your pct ‘piano off the front pages? Heaven snve Associated Airways, Limited, no matter who else lives or dies!"
Sir George winced. and found himself unable to do more than ""1"" 8I18Tlly that he ivas asham- ed of his daughter. No one else "Id anything at all, and Carol found relief from the intolerable strain of the past weeks in giv- ing vent to her feelings.
"How can you all be such silly llylwcrlleo." she cried. “All of you, 9X99!"- NIBBl. were there, when Tony made that silly melodrama- tic scene with tha revolvers. I was ready to let that be decently buried with him-but to have him turned into a hero, a martyr, and a saint! There are limits, even nowadays, to what decent people can stand!"
Otto Flesch was understood to murmur that there was a good deal to be said for the typically English proverb on the subject of leaving sleeping dogs to lie. But Carol was not to be checked or side-tracked.
"Tony u-as simply a fool!" she said coldly. "A nice fool some- tlmes-I was very fond of him in the old days. And at the end I think he was a vcry unhappy fool, But a hero—you all know as well as I do that he ought never to have started out with Rupert and me at all; that Rupert warned him that we hadn't enough water for the three of us; that he'd be bound to be a dragrJ’
She broke off helplessly. For, after all, what was the good of all this? Her essential honesty had revolted against the canonization of Tony Sothern. But in reality that was not hcr problem, as she knew very well. She was no near- er belng able to drag that into the healing light of day.
And then with a certain horror she realized that her father might be going to solve that problem for her. sir George Manson had more than his fair share of natural shrewdness. And he did not be- lieve for one moment that the adoption of a false point of view about Antony Sothernk death was the real cause of his daughter's White face, shadowed eyes, and neurotic, freedom of speech.
"Listen to me, Carol." he was saying. "Did anything happen out, there in the desert which you know and which the rest of us don't?"
‘I think," interrupted Hubeit lnlldly. "that we'd far better have dinner, and leave the continuation of this discussion until ltupelfi. Lar- rimore can be here."
But he was in a minority of one.
"What did happen, Carol?" ask- ed Janet Manson with uncom- promising directness.
"Carol was asleep," said Hubert reasonably. "How could she know exactly what did happen?"
"Shall I tell them to bring in dinner. Sir George?" inquired Cynthia Wright, tactful as ever.
But Sir George had his nose to the trail now, remoraeless as any bloodhound.
"Wore you asleep. Carol?" he demanded.
Carol swayed allttle on her feet.
"llsc," she said at last.
Sir George glared round him.
“Then what is all this non. sense?" he ' asked comprehen- sively.
Janet lilarison took up the in- qulsliion.
"I should like to know, Carol, 5881'." she said, "exactly how you found out that Antony Bother-n had killed himself?"
"O what does it matter?" rs- torted the girl wesrily. "Rupert heard the shot. Hewent out and found him. Then he came back and told me. Would you have thought it more suitable if he'd taken me out to look st- the body?" she added, with a suspicion of hysteria.
This her aunt ignored.
"Rupert heard the shot, you say?"
"That's what I ssidl"
"I see," aald Jlsnet Manson. "What do you see-f" demanded Cir George angrily. ‘He was not used to the sensation of having his thunder so blatantly stolen “Um him, l

The Over-Seas league, whose 60,900 members throughout the Commonwealth look to it for the next-te-impo "‘ when in Lon- don, hss added s secretarial ser- vice to its facilities.
Announcement of the bureau's opening was made to a luncheon attended by the managersiof Ca- nadian banks’ branches in Lon- don.
Air Vice-Marshal Malcolm Hen- derson, the League's director-gela- oral, said. the ides originated in Australia, where members told him that it was impossible, "wlth- out paying through the nose," to obtain reasonable secretarial ser-v vices in London. Could the Les- gue set up one?
The outcome is a service which undertakes to arrange appoint- ments and keep track of them; handle correspondence and filing, and typewrite letters dictated to a staff of stenogrsphers. Rooms also are provided for dictation and conference purposes.
Charges are well below the or- dinary professional rates and while the service ls reserved for club members the fees for non- resident British subjects is no- minal. and membership is open to all British subjects without distinction.
The Over-Seas League was launched in i910 by Sir Evelyn Wrench and its president is Earl Mountbatten of Burma. Canadian vice-presidents Include former prime minister Mackenzie King, Vincent Massey and Sir Edward Peacock.
Branches have been organized in Canada, where Brig. V. G. Stokes. development secretary. toured two years ago. They are in Victoria, Vancouver, Winnlpeil. 'l'oronto.
