Dividing tin 191.000.000 eggs ay1 the three and a half million people shows that our home state hens pro- : duced à4 eggs for oath person dur ing the 90-day period. Considering; the tact that lots ol us took the sec ond egg with the ham or bacon ai breakiast there is no wonder that many carloads of eggs had to be shipped into the state and still sonic lelluvvs didn't get their quota. The number of layers doing bus!· ties in March was estimated at ii, àall.oOO. a slight increase over the year betore. Not only did the hen». lay more eggs, but farmers and poul-1 try Men were able to get better prices lor what they sold, the estimated ai cm·, ι being 12 per cent a- of March ι là. Prices of chickens also was a lit tii' higher this spring than last. Γι ι centage irakes hen,- do funny; things. You'd hardly think a hen ι. uld lay a part of an egg. but sta ll.Te- prove it.

Tom nodded and turned toward the small hoathous»: at the e- I of the pier. "I'll make it as fast r.s I eu·'. ' he called over h - shoulder, and went running down the pier.

"The lock has been forced—" ■ Then that means we have no way of getting to the mainland— r.f communicating with the po lie:·'.'" said the major. "That's right," said Tom. But surely we could rig up a signal," said Brooks sharply. "Such as, for instance?" sug gested Tom. "Well — a white flag — upside down, perhaps. Isn't that usually the rcc( gnized signal for distress?" demanded Brooks. "Unfortunately, it'll be dark in another half hour—much too dark for such a signal to be seen," Tom pointed out. "And we are outside the usual steamer lanes—that is. the island is isolated to an amazing ,1 decree.·It's not likely, even if it was daylight, that anyone would notice a white flag of distress—" "Then a bonfire on the beach They always do that in the movies, i remember," suggested Natalie, trying hard to sound gay and cheerful. "If anyone saw a bonfire on the beach here, they'd think the honey mooners were having a wiener ι iv-ast Υ ·. î'.r-l half a dozen bon fires all up ai d down tne mainland ' ίι· âcb ..·.. tor that purpose," 'Τ!

Ι "I'm afraid I can t see anything "( it L' the obvious fact is, that .«···! has a reason for wantit u ·.. ;·. ep us here. Is that I the way you look at it, Formait?" ,. major Ί ..·· t him a swift, silencing •.■Iain that ..a.-· lost in the rapidly gathering gloom. "Why, no, Major, ι t think so. I think merely that we have been victims of a lever thief who needed a boat and j some supplies." "Supplies? Then you've missed supplies, too?" Lucy cut in unex pectedly. Tom turned to her, startled. "Too?" he repeated, frowning a; little. "When we got home last night ' from your place, our ice box had been looted os practically every thing. Only the canned stuff in the pantry, locked up inside the house, was left," answered Lucy. Tom's heart sank. ■ "That man last night at the window—and now the dead man— and the theft of the boat and sup plies," mused the major, obviously thinking aloud. "It all adds up— perhaps a couple of fugitives from the law—an argument, a fight, one of them dead, the other making his escape by means of the boat. Yes, it all adds up." Through the growing dusk he and Tom exchanged significant glances and Tom took his cue from ; the older man j "I'm afraid you're right, Major," he said then. "Well, we've nothing to gain by standing here in the dark. We must let Heath know what's happened. And then—I don't suppose there's anything to be done but to make ourselves as comfort able as we can for the night. In the morning we'll have to rig up some sort of message to the mainland." "Quite " said the major crisply. "And I don't want to alarm you ladies, but I d feel much more com fortable about you if you were all inside the Hacienda. This darknecr ; isn't exactly the safest place, I'd say—" They all turned toward the Haci enda, stumbling a little in the dark ness. As they reached the low green gate that opened into the .patio, Tom said, "1 11 go, and LiU i Heath what's happened. Major, will you look after things here?" "I'll go with you, Fornian," said BrooKS in a tone that would accept no denial, "if you don't mind. I think it would be as well if we went about two by two, or '.iore, until morning." "That's a very good i tea," said the major. "And with your per mission, Forman, I'm goi>, to ask Mrs. Forman and the young Mc Kays to come over to the Hacienda. I think we'd all be more comfort able if we were together tonight. Tom nodded his agreement. He and Brooks set off, arnfed with a flashlight, to bring Donald Heath back with them. As they walked Brooks said curiously, "What do you make of all this, Forman? Not Μη,pie robbery and murder, eh? Something more evil behind it all?" "I don't know. What do you think ?" Brooks hesitated. "Well, I went for a walk this morning rather early—and alone. I walked down the beach in the other direction— you know how the beach juts out there, and there are some twisted pines that grow with their roots in the water at high tide? Well, I no ticed halfway up the trunks of those trees a thick, gummy black substance—and I made sure that it was oil." Tom stared at him, puzzled. "And what would that mean?" he asked, because he didn't want to accept the explanation that in stantly occurred to him. i'iie only explanation I can of· ter is that there has been a dis aster at sea, not too far off this coast. An oil tanker has gone down, or else a ship that burns Diesel oil," said Brooks. "And you think it's possible that these two men—obviously, there were two of them, because one is dead, yet our boat and our supplies are gone—were survivors from this wrecked ship?" asked Tom. Brooks hesitated. "Well—th&t'e one explanation, of course—plaus ible, too, except that if the men were really shipwrecked here, they would have a perfect right to come to us and ASK for food and to be put ashore on the mainland. They wouldn't steal the things they needed." Donald had joined them now, ad mitting frankly his relief at the end of his lonely vigil beside the dead man. The three stood together on the beach, in sight of the Haci enda, aglow now with ΙΙ&Ι;' com pletely bewildered.
