He looked at the deep chest and the broad\u003cbr\u003eshoulders which even a loose white coat could not conceal, at the\u003cbr\u003eshort, wavy brown hair and the slow, friendly smile on the face below.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA likable chap, this Thorpe, but lazy--just an idler--he had\u003cbr\u003econcluded. Been playing around Manila for the last two months--resting\u003cbr\u003eup, he had said. And from what? the Admiral had questioned\u003cbr\u003edisdainfully. Admiral Struthers did not like indolent young men, but\u003cbr\u003eit would have saved him money if he had really got an answer to his\u003cbr\u003equestion and had learned just why and how Robert Thorpe had earned a\u003cbr\u003evacation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"You on a destroyer!\" he said, and the lips beneath the close-cut gray\u003cbr\u003emustache twisted into a smile. \"That would be too rough an experience\u003cbr\u003efor you, I am afraid, Thorpe. Destroyers pitch about quite a bit, you\u003cbr\u003eknow.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe included in his smile the destroyer captain and the young lady who\u003cbr\u003ecompleted their party. The young lady had a charming and saucy smile\u003cbr\u003eand knew it; she used it in reply to the Admiral's remark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"I have asked Mr. Thorpe to go on the _Adelaide_,\" she said. \"We shall\u003cbr\u003ebe leaving in another month--but Robert tells me he has other plans.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Worse and worse,\" was the Admiral's comment. \"Your father's yacht is\u003cbr\u003enot even as steady as a destroyer.
