Fooled Guests Confetti and rose-petals show- iered one of the smnartesf streets ln the West End of London as hie baudsome young engineer drove bis bride away on their secret haneymioon. Blithely the wedding guests attached the us- uia1 "Just Married" placard fo thec car-but this time the iaugh w,ýas on them. P1reparations for the lavîsh edngreception -- held in at Iuxury fiat leased by the groom's flim --bad given the bridai pair an idea. Quietly tbey rented a fribdfiat in the saime buil- ding. While the guests weLýe gues- siing wbhere fbey had gone on their boneymoon, the happy couple drove around the, block and re-enfered by a sîde door. Their friends littie realized that tlhe newlyweds were next door tuit one in their first married New-style honeymoons have underlined June bride niews. Iiu Glasgow kind-bearted Margaret 1\11som cancelled her boney- moon travel plans and sent lieri widowed eider sister on a mrucb- needed holiday insteud. Straight from the church, Margaret and hier husband drove fe the sister's house and began leoiking affer the two babies. "If will help lus make tup aur rinds," sraid Margaret,. "whether w.e're ready yet for bairns of our own." Ini the samne way a Cobbam eil Went straight home affer ber wedding and bier e-ighty-. year-old parents wenf off in the,ý bridai car f0 catch a train for their second honeymooni. Youfh club leader Angus Me- Gill faced a boneymnoon dilemma when be f eh in love with pretty Barbara Clift. He had promised luis club members a coacb trip lu the Riviera and he didn't wanit fo disappoint thie boys and girls. Happily ,his wýde agreed fo share the, honeymoon witb the lub members and so tbirty- three youngsters wenit to the South of France with tbem!t Yet uindoubtedly the most un- umual honeymoüon of the year will be that of blonde Josey Glanvilie. She and ber husband, tail and handsomne John Lowe, wrill share their bridai suite aloard sb-Ip wif h thirfeen other people wheu tbey sail later this year. Josey and John are to cross the Atlut-,lu the replicu of the Mayflower which bas been. built la Devon as a goodwiil gif t toi the United States.

CHRISTMAS 15 COMING - Jack Richmond trims one of 26,000 trees now on his evergreen plantation. The whole thing started as a "Christmas trea hob- by" seven years ago, but since has grown out of hand. Though he hasn"'t sold a single tree yet, Jack hopes ta unload ai fewv thousand in November and De- cember. After 20 Years- The Pay Off A Complete Story by Capt. Frank H. Shaw "CALL it agricultural mach- inery," suggested the shi.fty- eyed man. Captai Simon Carley nodded. "Where for?" he asked. Then whistled softly as the port 0of delivery vwas mnind Twenty years of smnuggling had robbed Carley of his con- science. He asked what the suggestedl fee might be, nodded wheni the handsomne figure was mentioned, The Stormny Petrel was well- named. She was a thirow-out of the war: had been a f ast mine-3ayer; and Carley's eng- ineer was a genius. Betweeni themr they'd renewed her into somnething phenomenai. Sorne of the turbulent Cen- tral Artaericani republics owed governiment changes to the com-. ings and goings of the Petrel in the past. It was a sort of Piracy, but it paid. And Carley was ambitious; flot so miruch for himself, but for his son, Dick, alad of whom ail Who knlew him, had the highest opinion. "'He'l1 go far-be a credit to you," wa5 the mnusic Carley liked to hear. "Nothing hie can't reach out for," And youing Dick hrad had the saucy temerity t0 fail in love with a girl of whomn Siion Carley thoroughly ap- proved. She wras an earl's daughter; a fine girl. A mani nieeded mocney to kerp such a girl in the state f0 which she had beeni accustomed. Carley went on makng money, stacking it up, with that desirable end lu view. D--ick was ambitius toc; that's how he camne lu contact wvith Lîady Aileen, Hle cut quite a dash in society. Simon Carley oversa-w the ladng of his ship with a sense of satisfaction. It was a night- tirne job, naturally, Even in suchl a free port aLs Tangier, -men didn't handle contraband openly. Though the packing cases wvere labelled Agricultural Macin- ery, anyone withi half an eye could guess their contents wýere of a less harmless quality. ".Ail snutg-oh?" asked t;hema wvith the shifty eyes, whomi Carley knew for a go-bet-weenà representing powerful interests. "Right1 as raim, Cash down of course?" Tha't was always a part of every such clandestine bargain. Nobody trusted any- body else in this underwoýérld 4)f intrigue. The negotiator had a suspiciousj bulge under his armi- pit. But Carley carried bis gun even hander-up bis sleeve; a neat little automatic like a tojy that could yet accounit for se-yen if it camne to a showdawn. If arman's h-Fanýd made a sus- picious niovemnent, that little pistol dropped like m-agic Into a skileéd hand, and blazed forth in1 a trice. . "Sure!" said Mr, Hopollus. The m&oney was tabled down, i US. notes of- high value. Carley -cointed themr swiftly. Ail cor- r'ect, And at the handlJng o this go<o>dnorey, he feIt the o14 spinal tingle that another riot- ous adventure wax afoot. A ýoupnle more runs like this -*-ie mieant that Dick could offer a sefftlemnent on tche girl of his Choice, andf thut iought f0 clinch the deal, couisidering bow pre- sent high taxation affected her noble sire. "Wle'il pull ouf at ndit" Simron Carley promised; and wvas as goodl as bis word "'Somiethiug,'s li kely ta haup- peu,"1 laugbed Lt-Comianden Hibbertson, R.N., commaniding H.M.S. destroyer 'Utra-rupid'. "Keep yo-ur eyes open, wuatch- keepers. Regularrar-tc" But there was a radar wuatch aboard the "Petr-ei" foc. When- ever uuyfbing suspicious shojwed on the soreen the skipper made quick clculations, stopping en- glues ta do so. If was a kind of ghostiy duel between twio opposing forces. Better to run, away than ta is detection aud seurch! Carley en j oye d tiis lind man's ituf reck1essly; he had a feeling that he was gamnbling with fate for the small fortune that shouid put bis son on vel- vet. That roll of American cur- rency wus sfôwect away where even a custom-s man couldn't find it. If if came f0. a -how- down be wus quit e neudy to dumnp bis cargo over the side- the cases were the size thaf could be easily bandled; and they were bailasted with rocks thaf would sink tthem burriedly,. No need fo worry!. But be feif bis stomiacli turu over when a sharp flash of lighit sbowed on bis starboard quair- fer. If was quite a whiie be- the duIl boom beaf up againsf the iigbt wi*nd. If ever a signal f0 "Heuve-to or l'il sînk y ou!" cballenged a man if was then. But the seurching finger of light mnissed the 'Petrel'. She was aiready zigzagging' smarti.y. The flash usteru showed again, fthe duli echo boomned coaxingly thnougb the ebouy gioom. There wIas no mnoon; Caniey knew his work, and lad arranged the run for prisely this part of the mnont b. But he beard the hig) pitcbed whine of a shell, wbich mneant thec pursuen was firing by radar, not by sight. One of these daned up-to- the-mninute fellows," le scoffed f0 bis Number Onie. 'üiv-e ber tbe iwhole works!" The 'Petrel' began to fty; and the questing destroyer hiadn't a 1o0k-lu once lier throttles were- fhrown wide open If wus au e-xultant victory for a mail who dared f0 take a risk. Long befonre t'ne firsfL crack of dawn a lightfflickered ableud. Carley sfopped engines, the 'Pefrei' grew quiet as a -wraith). In a lapping stiilness, row boats floated up like sliadows, hookedi on aiongside, and the noiseiess cargo-gear got busy. Ca-se af fer case was winched up from the hoids, swung ouf, received. Boat afted boat, laden gunwaie deep, stole stealfbily away. Witb tbe iast parcel of caýrgo transhipped and receipts given and taken, the 'Petrel' smoofbiy turned about and rau at easy speed for a distant islund HFere glie coliected barrels of grapes anid such-like truck. Hier alibi established, she headed for oper wafer and started her returu to, Tangier. Ail fhe dsroes iceafion couid find fault witb ber! Onie lean gneyhound did hoist a fiag, signal demanding imm-ediate balting; a trimi naval lieutenant came aboard. Wbafever bis sus- picions migbt bave been they buad no foundat ion.

He rai. the 'Petrel' le-an into Genoa harbour under night's shadow, and daringiy tied up et an ob- scure pier. Ris luck held good; three trips he made without 50 much as scratching his paint. "Catre ta try to r'un a final load of agricultural stuf?-" Mr. Hopïolous asked in the, Tangier hofel where a hardwýorking sea- skipper was eutitied ta fake his ease affer a job ell done. "Don't mmnd a try. Samie "Hge.Riski's increased s0 the pay-off's even bigger. They want the stuf s badly tbey'lil give anything fbat's asked. How about a drink?"' Hopolous ciapped hands for the waiter an-d ordered lavisbly. A mnan seated near-.by threw down a wvell-read newspaper; and an outsize headline drew Cariey's attention, He reached for the uewspaper with a bit of a chuckle. "Cyprus Terrists Strike Again," he rend. Then one name leaped ouf at hin-i.as if hmned iu fire. "One British soldier shot and kiiled, seven others wvounded." he read, bis mlouth parching.
