SYNOPSIS
Tired of the smugness and re-
strictions of civilization Mark
Talbot books passage on the SS
"Orient" hoping to find the adven-
ture he craves in travel His broth-
er John pleads in vain with him
to remain home and settle down
At the dock Mark's attention is
drawn to an attractive girl who
stares at him in a hostile way
Next day Mark goes from deck to
deck in search of her He finds the
gill in the steerage the same ex-
pression of helpless rebellion
against aottiething or someone on
her face Mark learns from the
captain that her name is Vanya
Prokovna and that she is being do
ported front San Francisco to
Honolulu Mark tries to converse
with her but she requests him to
heave her alone
enArrmrt
By late afternoon the waves were
racing down on the ship like gray-
green mountains and the decks
were practically deserted Mark
sat at his table alone for dinner
he noted with vicious satisfaction
that neither the lyrical Professor
nor the talkative blonde miss and
her mother appeared He ate a
heartier meal for their absence
"Wonder how Vanya's holding
op" he thought "I don't envy her
cooped up in that stuffy hold"
After dinner he descended to the
steerage merely he told himself
to satisfy his curiosity A bare hand-
ful of Chinese chattered in their cu-
rious language seated along the
wall Vanya was nowhere to be
seen
He noticed a China woman with a
young baby the same one who had
sat next to Tanya on his first visit
to the steerage
"Where is the white lady?" he
asked
No answer The stolid face stared
at him unwinkingly Mark grinned
and drew a silver ball-dollar from
hie pocket
"Where is the white lady I" he re-
peated A bony hand reached for the coin
"No feel good Inside" replied the
woman gesturing toward the cell-
like row of rooms whose doors
banked the inner wall of the steer-
age
"Well That's a satiafactionlN
grinned Mark to himself as he re-
turned to his own stateroom "My
three shipboard acquaintances a
hundred per cent under the weath-
ex" Nevertheless the memory of Van-
ya's pallid rebellious features was
anything but a satisfaction to him
In spite of himself he felt sorry for
her He rang for the steward
"After the way she acted teor
be chided himself
"What's the thing to do for ma! de
mert Steward ?" he asked as that
official responded to his ring
The steward looked at Mark
sprawled easily in his chair pulling
cigarette
"Why sir generally we serve
black coffee or orange Juice But
sir if I may say so you don't
look--"
"Not for me" said Mark smiling
1 'Take some down to Missy Vanya-- I
What was her name?--0"Mias Van-
ya Prokovria in the steerage with
my compliments"
The steward's face remained Imp
passivt It was nn less impassive
when he returned ten minntes later I
with a tray holding a pot of coffee 1
and s beaker of orange juice
"I beg your pardon sir but the
Lady returns the order without her
compliments"
Mark surveyed the tray after the
steward's departure
"That's the last straw!" he Mut-
tered "To the Devil with her!"

HONOLULU 1
By mid-morning Oahu was visible t
its a gray point on the horizon and
the once world-famous leper island 1
of Molokai appeared beside it
Right between the two steamed the
Orient rounding Oahu toward the
Honolulu aide of the island
Landing day! Mark watched the

1 man resembled Hauptmann
1 Q And you testified before the
grand fury that this man resem-
bled Hauptmann? A Yes
Q You said the man resembled
grt ocean heaving in long swells
last reminder of yesterday's blow
k but the sickening rolling and pitch
ing of the ship had diminished to a
degree endurable by most of the
passengers
The port rail wag lined with pas
sengers staring at Molokai at the
little white cottages of the unfortu-
nates who made up save for a few
nurses and doctors the ialand's en-
) tire population
) Mark gazed with the rest feeling
a distinct pity for the afflicted ones
I bound to so narrow a life Spring
Brook had seemed unbearable to
him what must be the lot of time
forced to spend their entire lives in
the confines of a tiny Pacific island?
By aa hour after mid-day the
I great Tmer was entering lionolulu'a
harbor The decics were thronged
the Illivratian metropolie was the
destination of many of Mark's fel-
low passengers and practically all
of the rest were going ashore Mark
himself was keying the vessel
there from that point he had de-
cided the infinitely varied world of
the South Seas lay before him or
at will the equally polyglot world
of Asia and the Far East
Mark wenb down to his room to
finish his last minute packing Ile
was traveling light and found com-
paratively little to do However
when he returned to the deck the
Orient had already docked and the
majority of those who were going
ashore had departed
Mark gazed at Honolulu outpost
of America He saw a thoroughly
modern city trucks rumbled along
the water-lront street cars clanged
in the distance and bales of sisal
and hides bags of coffee and sugar
cases of pineapples lay piled in or-
derly rows along the docks For all
outward appearance save for the
exotic odors and the curious trees
that lined the more distant thor-
oughfares he might never have left
San Francisco True the dock
laborers were mostly Chinese but
even that -would be scarcely a nor- 4
elty on the West Coast of the United
States
He tipped the ship employes ti1i I
lined before the gang plank to bid I
farewell to their late passengers I
and descended to the dock A brisk
Chinese youth appropriated his (
hand luggage and be moved down
the wooden way
Halfway along a Chinese woman
was talking to a man of the same
race Mark noticed a baby in her
arms and recognised his ac-
quaintance of the steerage
"Hellol" he said "I thought you f
mere bound for Canton"
The image of Vanya whom he
had eeliberately put out of his 3
mind rose again at the sight of the I
woman
"I got cousin here' she grinned i
"I go see Boat wait here one day" 8
Mark paused beside her
"What happened to the white
lady?" he asked 8
"She get oft boat"
"I know" said Mark wondering
why he bothered to ask about Vanya
at all
The Chinese woman leaned" to-
ward him
"She dance" she said in confiden-
tia tones
"Dance? What do you mean?
"She dance for money"
"Oh" said Mark "Yon mean -
she's a professional dancer"
He frowned Somehow the in- P
formation didn't please him girls
who dance for money in the Poly- r
nesian islands are as a general
rule hardly models of progriety
"How do you know?" be queried 81
"I ask She tell"
"Where does she dancer
"No tell'
"In Honolulu?"
"She no tell" al
"Well" said Mark "I don't sup- Y
pose it makes much difference any-
way It's none of my business But 171
thanks' 441

halted him with a plaintive cry N
"Worth money?"

An exchange of words between

3 Thr A light dawned on him
r "No it's not worth a red cent to me
1 you heathen but here's for your in
a terest anYwaSd"
ie He fished another half-dollar
from his pocket and tossed it to
s the woman with a partly-smused
Le partly-exasperated chuckle Then
I he moved on toward the city with
st his brisk little attendant trotting
a behind
"I'll find out what sort of trimme-
st portation one can get to the re-
a motor spots in the South Seas" he
it ruminated "After all you can't
o judge by Hawaii in the first place
a it's north of the equator and there-
n fore not really a chain of South
? Sea islands at all And in the see-
e mid place it's an American err
a tory and Hoaolu la's an Amexitaa
city That isn't what I'm looking
8 for on this trip"
- He registered at his hotel after
I a ride in a perfectly convention
k taxicab and wandered out to to
the town over Somehow he wast
- pleased the city was a bustlin
t business-like place American goo a
r were in every shop window and the
few natives he passed were attired
In civilized clothing -
) Remarkably few natives thought
) Mark he recalled having heard or
read that civilization with its vices
and diseases was gradually killing
them off
"I suppose in a few years there
will be nothing but Chinese Japa
and Americans in the islands" he
reflected "and another outpost of
romance will have vanished'
The reflection dampened his spin
its somewhat He passed the can-
opy of a typical American movie
theatre with its flaring one-sheet
posters and rococo decorations
"Might as well drop in there for
adventure" he muttered to himself
"Seems to be the only place left la
the world where they dish out ro-
mance" He noticed a black-suited man
ahead of him conspicuous in that
community of light-clothed citizens
A flicker of recognition—his deck
chair neighbor Professor Mac
Quane Mark was glad of any corn
panionship he quickened his steps
and approached the Professor
"Good afternoon" he greeted the
other -
The Professor seemed in an
amiable mood He responded pleas-
antly enough to Mark's greeting
"I'm glad to see that you're
about again today" said Mark a
trifle maliciously "Seasickness is
certainly the most miserable atot
fiction in the world"
"Seasickness!" snorted his coin-
panion "I was a trifle indisposed
yesterday it's true That was
merely my nervous indiiestionl
"There was quite an epidemic of
it said Mark cynically "You
should take better care of your- -
self"
Just before them appeared an-
other familiar figure--the mus-
tached young Englishman Who had
relieved Mark of his discussion of
Great Circles What was his name T
Higgins—that was it
"Hi!" he greeted the two "Sal)
or's holiday and all that!"
' He fell into step beside them
"I say!" he continued "Several
of us off the ship are going to do the
town tonight--all the cabarets and
--you know what you chaps call
night clubs Sailor's night In
port"
He turned to face Mark and the
Professor "Will you two chaps
join in?"
"Thank you said MacQuane
stiffly "Not I! And if you'll par-
don me I must leave you here
He turned in at the Administra
don building
"Queer bloke said Higgins
staring after him "How aboire)1
you?"
"I don't know said Mark '
might at that" He faced Higgins
"Say is that blonde lady going
along?"
"D'you mean the voluble damsel?
No:just some chaps from the ship
You ve met all of them in the RU10110
jug rem Purely stag affair"
