watch man git oufve me way ye lubber or luke went into action its all right tim what is it captain he asked anxiously although greatly relieved to see the old salt alive and apparently well yve heard he demanded a suspi cion of raolstness in his keen old gray eyes luke nodded and they say it is my fault dyou believe that lad not if you say it tsn captain have me runnln lights on i did young fella they cut me down in the fog but if you show them pictures im done oaptatn job gripped lukes coat tight ly listen he said hoarsely when you was aboard we had the lights down cleanln them they were on

right all right but say i what it eating you boy you ve been wooay for two months now 1 cant under stand luke shook his head slolj well i cant have you you re orf the active list report to the ship ping room and watch your step or you 11 be clear out luke went to the shipping room he worked hard it kept bitter thoughts ut of his mind bitter sickening thoughts he kept out of the streets during the day time lest the steamship agents see hint in the building he shut his ears to uie stories of exciting things coming to pass soon he did not want to hear of the big air race assignments up north of the earthquake assignment in the south most of all he did not want to hear of the big assignment right there in town a foreign crown prince as due to srrhe in america soon he was im mensely popular on both aides of the atlantic the competition for his news- reel pictures would be enormous v no doubt special honors vacations too would come to the crew that got the first shots luke did not dare think of tfeat in spite of it all however luke clung desperately to a straw jhfeybe some thing would happen it did just as though it had all been planned the very next day three crews were crippled because of illness and the dsy after that two outoftown stories i broke then two local stories doyer was irritable as a crate of tigers in a fire i down to his last crew he was and now oame the orange show it was not very i important but there would be a row if it was not covered i doyer gnawed his pencil pounded his desk and bellowed for luke and if you fumble this assignment youre through luke was his parting shout hatrn hour later luke bandy and sights were purring along in one of the olobe sound trucks once more in happy reunion luke however was serious what if the steamship agents saw him now the inquiry was to morrow he decided to explain to bandy and sights so 111 just stay out- of sight he finished ft might luke bandys voice was tense look back i an electrlo quiver shot through

now there were crisp orders the big truck turned around and roared toward the water front with squealing brakes i cried bights a white ship coming around the neck in ten minutes they were skimming over the water in a hired speedboat oheok your sound bandy your camera ibtghtfc said luke crisply hie heart thudded he was the old luke swiftly the trim warship and the leaping speed boat approached each other they hail ed yes the prince was aboard would he receive newsreel photo graphers on board no that was one point in transferring to the warship and coming in early to ovoid the army of newspaper men and photographers but argued luke if they would stop now for pictures there would be only one crew whereas if luke had to go back to the city and announce the royal party s pending arrival there certainly would be an army to meet them thb way the party could dock quletlj it was a good argument and it won ten minutes latei the throe were rush ing about on the cruisers spotless quar terdeck arranging their gear we are ready sir spoke luke tense ij to a wardroom officer will the prince come here i am announced a quiet voice luke pivoted to face a smiling young man in white ducks he had been watching their preparations all the while oh sir i 1 thought you were a ship s officer i the princes friendly vsmlle silenced him so this was royalty why i this man was just like an ordinary sailor for all the airs he put on stand just there please indicated luke recovering rapidly his arms sig nalled sound j camera ore tings my american friends began the prince in a smooth voice i bring you the tidings of my people across the sea tot three minutes he spoke with eon- lnclng sincerity into the microphone before he bowed wrasslfout of the camera field there it was over luke and his crew had scooped the whole coast on the event after a swift trip back to the truck they tumbled in weve met the prince and he is ours cried luke joyfully away now yes agreed sights suddenly away look 1 luke saw and the fleeting smile frote on his race not two blocks away two men in some kind of nautical uniform gesticulated wildly in their direction and leaped into a waiting car the truck roared with bouncing springs and straining frame the big machine answered its accelerator must be our steamship friends 1 muttered luke soon they were racing up the labora tory steps why the steam
