■ t bis fair questioner, the bba>d
mantling Id* cheeks at the expression

mysterious disappearance of the sen

conceal bis anger, “you beliexe I’m
mixed up in somV plot to deprixe you
of the serxices of >our employees s and
fearing that Fve hidden them some

"Perhaps you can ansxver fliat ques*

Dick turned his back to her. All de-
•Ire to confide in her, and tell her the
conversations In- had overhear I be

vanished. Her attitude of suspicion
piqued and angered him.

CHAPTER VI
»
Walking unchallenged from the boat
house, leaving Alice Cutler white and
Quiet behind; Dick made a complete
four of the Island before any of the
ethera were up.
-'It was a larger island than he had
been led to think, lu all it comprised
at leaat several hundred acres, half of
It low udd flat, and the rest rough and
rocky, with the south side ending In
• precipitous bluff. The rambling
house was built on the highest point,
commanding an unobstructed view of
the ocean in nil directions.
The west side xxas Mtnewhat shel
tered, and a dock had been constructed
Inside nu artificial stone breakwater/
that formed h safe basin for boats.
It was In this basin that the Pelican
had landed It* passengers the night
before.
In the early morning glow, the Island
sLItmuerijig Jexx el of rare beauty
tree's 1 hal grexv
,topS xvere mute testimony to their
long defiance of wind and Waves.
Dirk found this side of the i-land
more in Ids'taste. It was possible
for one to seek shelter '"from the^
storms at any time in the eaves, As
sures and depressions hetxveen the
roeks, and In an emergency one could
find a spare living there. Sea birds
had their rpokeritai in sliellered
places, screeching and squawking In-
termiftrnfly the day long, and in the
pools beloxv, left there by the receding
tide, xx hole schools of fi>li and crusta
cean* were caught.
"With an occ asional raid on a hen
coop and the dairy, I could lixe here
like a king.’’ Dick observed, xvhim-
sicaily smiling. “A veritable paradise
flung down in the ocean.*'
Not exactly sure of Ids next move,
and unwilling to force matters, Dick
Isr.ily explored the rough side of the
Island, hiding in the caves xxhenever
any suspicious noise alarmed him, and
otherxxlse enjoying himself to the ut
most. In this xx ax he spent the morn
ing and early afternoon.
Toward sunset, he was watching Ihe
shimmer of the ocean on the north
xx hen a tinx spec k. Imlihing up and
down nil the xxave.*, attracted Ills at
tention. He watched It Indifferently
at tlrsf.tind then xxith more ccciicem.
-He-«sh»deft~Trt» c>«*s xvllh both hands,
and came to Ids feet witti tin exclatiiH:
tlon of surprise. ^ •
“It's somebody-eHnging to a Ilfe-
raft !" he said.
He xxutched it a fc*xv moments long
er. and then added. "He's nearly all
in, and trying In reach the island.”
Hurrying doxxn the rocks, he
reached the edge of the xxater. The
shipwrecked man on the raft xvas
swimming freely uoxx. and xxith pow
erful strokes prn|»cl)ing his frail sitje
port toward the island. Dick waved
Ids hniids, and shouted :
"This way ! I’ll help you "*
There stsumsl to be a moment <*f In

and then as if Dick's xx nrds lead been

When they were tinajlv tumliled ashore
^eyond Ihe reach of the sucking xva-
tcr, Di»k dragged himself to his. feet
end looked at the seaman. * .
"You say you're from the yacht
I’elican'r" lie said. “What happened?
Mere you knocked overboard?'*'
‘‘.No, sir, I come to get help. I’ve
been In the water for ten hours.
Reckon I'd never made land if you
hadn't seen me, sir. I xvas nearly in.
\Vhat part of the coast is lids?”
“The coast? This is an island—
Valhalla!"
The man groaned and threw up ids
arms in despair- "G—-d. then I ain’t
done no good!" he said. “That swim's
all fur nothing. I thought I was swira-
min’ fur the mainland.’'
He appeared so (genuinely grieved
and disappointed that Dick said sym
pathetically, “It’s too had! Hut tell
me about the Pelican. Where is she?
And what’s happened to her?”
“The usual thing, sir. She ran on
the shoals In the storm last night, an’
she's goiu* to pieces. Can't fast twen
ty-four hours—doomed, sir. It’s a
couldn’t get
now; But a
If nntll sunup. That's
lot of good It will Jo
fylm now that I’ve, foiled. Jdm !"
He let out another groan, 9nd strug
gled to an upright sitting position.
"You say this Is an island?” he added.
"You sure it ain’t the mainland?” .J
"I’d hardly make a mistake like
that,” replied Dick. TlTen. ‘TT'the
Pelican's on tlie rocks why doesn't she
summon aid from the shore? She’s
equipped xvlth wireless.”
"Yes, sir, hut It ain't xvorklng no
more. The storm ripped the wires to
pieces an’ flooded the dynamos. No,
sir, the cupl'n cun'l send a message
ashore. That's why J volunteered to
swim it. I thought I could do it with
this raft, hut the tide and xvind^tnust
have drifted me out of my course.”
Dick nodded and said nothing. He
was thinking hard. Was this a part
of the mysterious plot? or luid the
Yacht been, xx rec ked and the seaman
risked his life In an attempt to get
help before ♦die xxent to pieces?
He eyed the man furtively. He
recalled his extraordinary strength in
battling the xvax.es ntitil h^ saw Dick,
and then his subsequent collapse. The
man, in spite of a[fpearonce, did not
seem so terrfbly exhausted. He was
breathing almost normally.
"Cim you walk?” Dick asked sud
denly. "If so you'd'helb*r»_get up to
the house and make a report to Mr.
Qutler. It’s his yacht—r"
He stopped In the middle of bis sen
tence, and stared lip at the rocks that
rose abruptly from the beach a few
yards back from the wafer’s edge.
Standing, on a projecting ledge within
earshot, as If she had Jiistt stepped
out of the month of a sea cave that
yaxvned hack of her, xvas Alice Cutler.
Dick xvas satisfied that she had been
there for some time, and ban. listened
to the sailor's story.
‘•ThereVMiss Cutler nnxv,” he added,
pointing. “You can repeat your story
to her, or"—sloxxdy, smiling—“perhaps
she heard you.” \
“Yes, 1 heard," flijk girl replied
gravely, “It won't he necessary to
repeat It.” v
She began making her slippery de
scent from the rocks. Dick offered a
hand to help her. but she ignored it.
“You xx ere one of the sailors on tlie
Pelican,’’ she said, addressing the
man. ., .".les. J-'i-rmemln r your fai'e

"Yes, ma’am, this Is my first cruise

but Dick thought he delected a hold

ma'm. it’s tlie last.”
“You liaxe no idea xxhere the yacht

signithantly, "hut he didn’t seem to

"Yes, it Struct^ me so.” replied Dick
seriously. "Exen xvlien I hauled him

herd- and His Sheep.
JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus the Hood
Shepherd.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP-
1U—What tlie Uood Shepherd Does for
His Sheep.
YOUSO PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
IC—Many Sheep, but One Shepherd.
The relationship of the Messiah to
His own is set forth in the Old Testa,
ment under the-figure of the shepherd
and Ids sheep. (I’s. ‘J.'k Kz. :t4).
1. The Good Shepherd (vv. 1-1S).
L He Is tlie True Shepherd - (vv.
1-C).
He came by the divinely appointed
way;- Tfa **‘-rfluy; pr ( ‘ Yt ‘ r, ’i' fwi by - tlie
Pharisees in cast
not obtained by lawful means. It xvas
stolen by them and exercised iu the
bold spirit of robber*. John the
Baptist, and others of the prophets,
hud- performed tlie function of the
porter and opened tlie door, to tlie
Shepherd (v. 23). Despite tlie deceit,
audacity, theft and robbery of these
Pharisees, those who., were Christ's
sheep xvere declared to be forming a
uew flock and following Him as the
true Shepherd (v. 4). The reason the
man suffered excommunication for
Jesus’ sake was that he recognized
Him as thd true Shepherd and the
Pharisees bs strangers.
2. He Is the Door of lire Sheep
(vv. 7-10). ^ , ' . .
The way to fellowship to God is
through Chrjst. He is the only door
(Acts 4:12). There is absolutely no
way to,get into tlie fold of the re
deemed nut by Him. All who attempt
ft are thieves and robbers (v. 8).
Those who become members of the
flock through Him enjoy marx;elous
gift* (vv. 9, 10).
(1) Salvation—“Shall be saved.”
Not only saved noxv but saved eternal
ly (vv. 27, 28).;
(2) Lilierty-^“Shall go iu and out”
(v. 9).
Only those xvho accept salvation in
Christ know what freedom is.
(3) , Contentment—“Shall go in and
out and find pasture” (v. 9). '
Tlie one who really enters the fold
by Christ, the door, rei-efves that
which is all-satisfying to the soul. .
3. He Is the Good Shepherd (w.
IMS).
He is so devoted to Ills sheep that
He willingly • lays down Ills life fnr
thew. ' The hireling abandons his
sheep In time of danger. The Good
Shepherd ha* perfect knowledge of
His sheep and they know Him (w.
14, 15). He enjoys such personal In-'
tlmaey with His sheep t(tat He.knoW*
them by name and goes before them to
lead the xvay and defend them front
every danger. This He will do even
unto deatlvTrOftCalx’ary this was his
torically fulfilled.'-R^'as Christ’s love
for such sheep as this j>0ecbllud man
that-caused Him to give up liisttfe Ih
order to find for them the abuudaM
life (v. 30). This sympathy is world
wide—“other sheep I have which are
not of this fold.” This suggests that
the GentflVs have a place lb His fold.
All who believe in Christ form one
flock. Ln order to^save His sheep He
voluntarily laid doWi^ His life (vv.
17,18).,.., ,
H. The Sheep (vv. 19-3i
I. Unbelievers Are* Not His .Sheep
(vv. 19-2G). 1 \
Christ’s assertion- -that lie was
the good shepherd caused a di
vision among- the people. Some ac
cused IJImvof being mad, others, that
He had a devil. To their request that
He xvould tell them plainly If He were
the Christ, He referred them to the
testimony of His works, declaring that
the secret of their inability to recog
nize Him xvas their unbelief.
2. They Recognize His Voice (v. 4).
There are many voices in tlie xxmrld.
the voice of the hireling, the voice of
the,thief and the voice of the stranger,
but none of these xvill the sheep hear.
The voice of (lie true Shepherd Is
recognized by His sheep even amidst
the babel of'voices in-tlie xx’orld today.
3. His Sheep Follow Him (vv. 3,27).
This is the proof that they are His.
The one who does not hear, heed, and
’ obey the Lord’s voice Is clearly not
His sheep'. His sheep have unques
tioned faith in His ability to lead
them.
4. His Sfieep Are Eternally Se
cure (vv. 27, 28).
The sheep are entirely depend
ent 'upon the Shepherd. It- is
the Shepherd's business to look after
and care for the sheep. This He does
for He know* them by name and Is
acquainted with their weaknesses and
trials. • ^ -

Diet in the home today is becom

housewife planning her menus xxith an
