the leaders were too far ahead, and
when Frank arrived at that aggravat-
ing long, narrew field on Turner's farm
he could see Jim, Ned and Greggy on
the other side. just striking across
country on the last leg of the race
homeward, after having made the long
flight around the field
Flight 110 brought Frank to the
spot where he must turn up the side
OF the field He paused while he did
a bit of figuring. BY dashing across
the kfield he could save at least 35
fiights-if he succeeded. But already
old Tosser had spied his red sweater
and came snorting up to the barb wire
fence.
1t was a desperate decision for any
boy to make. Tosser was noted for
his wickedness. and had nearly killed
Turner's hired man two summers ago
But the thought of those 35 flights
nerved Frank on. I'll do it" he cried
shaking his fist at the bull. Then he
instructed Bill to run down the field
and try the ancient trick of drawing
the bull off while he made the attempt
Tom Kennedy attempted to dissuade
Frank from his reckless plan, but
Frank only told him TO watch sharp
and be ready to measure the flight.
I'm not going TO follow you into the
field and get killed toor objected Tom
mo. but you can watch where No

Toms fears.
Bill had arrived at his station way
down the field, and at Franks signal
set up an awful YELL pretending to run
across. This drew Tosser away at a
gallop. and Franks chance found him
ready.
Here goes" he cried, as he released
the Comets propellers. She "took the
air" sailed over the fence. and, describ-
ing a beautiful upward curve, travelled
at high speed across the field. Frank
expected the Comet to alight about the
middle OF the pasture. but to his sur
prise she kept right on until nearly
two-thirds was traVersed before she
grounded.
And then another unexpected thing
happened The minute he started the
Comet Frank was after her. climbing
the fence TO follow, making the most of
the few minutes precious leeway Bills
diversion allowed him. But in his haste

and tumbled heavily to the grass. He

managed to jump up, but Tom, now
thoroughly alarmed, saw he limped
and implored him to climb back to safe

the foolhardy aviator
But Frank was game" and. blind to
every danger, even the pain from his
twisted ankle could not stop his limp

could have foreseen what was now
about to happen he would never nave

Look out! Here he comes|
screamed Tom, as Frank reached the
Comet Frank picked up the aeroplane
while at the same instant he realized
his dangerous situation. The raging
bull was charging down the field at a
pace that cut off all hope for Frank
to regain the fence. Still If he dropped
the aeroplane right now he would have
time enough to reach a small tree about
10 yards away. And here came the
test of Franks nervel
He gritted his teeth and stood stock
still on the spot where the Comet had
lit, as he hastily wound the propeller
round and round, twisting tight the
rubber bands. 1t usually took 100 revo-
lutions TO insure power enough for
good flight Frank silently counted
and watched Tosser come on. At the
seventy fifth revolution the bull was
within 500 feet. Frank dared walt no
longer. He quickly turned the comet
toward the other side of the field about
200 feet away and released the pro-
peliers. Flight No. 112 began. The
Comet futtered out of his hand and
Frank turned and ran toward the tree
as fast as his injured ankle would let
him.
Seeing this sudden separation of the
two red objects of his wrath, Tosser
came to puzzled halt and that one lit
tie pause allowed Frank just enough
time to swung himself into the tree out
of the maddened animals reach.
The dazed young air pilot had hardly
straddled that limb of safety when
loud hurrah caused him to look out of
the tree and just catch a glimpse of the
Comet as 1T glided to earth like gi-
gantic red bird, safe on the other side
of the dreaded field.
He had accomplished the feat he set

out to achieve, but at what a cost He
found himself a prisoner and he found
his ankle was sprained, but it didn't
matter, and the thought that under the
rules he still had a chance quickly gal
vanized Franks scattered wits into ac-
ton. He shouted to Bill. who had now
rejoined Tom, and some of the rear
guard" in the race that had just arrived
to witness the last extraordinary scene.
II can't finish this race in person,
cause the bull says no, and besides that
I've sprained my ankle. For these good
reasons ] hereby appoint my brother
Bill as my substitute. Beat it around
the field, Bill, and take it in"
Bill lost no time in obeying and also
promised to try to help Frank out in
some way. 1t panied Frank more than
his sprained ankle to think what would
happen If Turner captured him, and he
begged Bill to try and fix up a plan to
rescue him quick.
Bill did not return until after sun
down, and here is what the rescuing
party found: Frank was mounted on
the upmost branch of the little tree
trying to dodge the long poles with
which Turner and his hired man cruelty
tried to dislodge him.

voice that caused Turner to suddenly
desist. 1t was no less than Mr.. Hard
ing.
IF you don't drop those poles and let
that boy go instantly I'll brand you
through my paper as the meanest,
cruelest old coward in Prairie countyw
This stern threat had its effect, for
Turner stepped sullenly aside and made
no attempt to touch Frank as he slowly
descended from the tree and lay down
on the grass. His ankle was so swollen
and he was so stiff with his long inn
prisonment that he could not walk
And then Mr.. Harding jumped over the
fence and amid the frantic cheering of
the accompanying throng he pressed
crisp yellow $50 bill into Franks hand
and said:

Comet. Manned by your brilliant
young sub Williams Comet won the
race by three flights less than the Sill
yer Flash, which was second"
And while Frank listened to the
praise his daring called forth he looked
at acid faced old Turner and grinned.

feet greatly encouraged him.
Each flight was consecutively num-
bered on paper by the attendant meas
urers, one being appointed for each con-
testant. They also saw there was mo
inchin up"-that is, each new flight
must be started from the spot of the
preceding landing.
When John Turner's farm was
reached Frank and his rivals looked
wistfully across the narrow field that
would save so many extra flights by
it's crossing but no one dared to risk
an attempt, particularly Frank, who
wore a red sweater as well as having
red airship. Turner had given his
vicious bull Tosser. the run of the
field. which was too wide to be crossed
in a single flight. So they had to
fly along the outside boundary.
Now who ever heard of boys fly

haps it was Franks fault or the
Comets, or the rising breeze's-but the
Comet made her first bad break as
the Tamarack swamp was reached,
after the long detour around Turner's
farm had been flown She flew into
the swamp and got badly tangled in the
underground When Frank had finally

Then came the return trip-but not

better results at last. for she began to

Yet Frank kept doggedly on the re-

KHR. HARDING, the jovial editor of
lVl the Prairieville Clarion, was
great lover of a good joke. So when
Paulhan, the French aviator, won the
$4,000 prize offered by British news
paper for a successful flight from Lon
don to Manchester the editor got an
idea. Mr.. Harding, who had long en-
joyed the Prairieville aero clubs ad-
ventures. Immediately took the hint and
offered prize of $50 for the round trip
from Prairieville to Manchester that
could be made in the fewest number of
flights by model 'sheavier than air.

Maybe the aeronautical section of
Juvenile Prairieville didn't go into con-
vulsions! A committee on rules, eligi-
bility and right of way was Immediate

as chairman. It's duties were easy until
it came to picking out the most feasible
route between Prairieville and Man

all the owners of the property to be

BY looking at the map you can see what
a disastrous effect this refusal had upon
the selection of the route.
John Turner was the boys arch en-
emy. Ever since the race for the Will
liams trophy resulted in the smashing
OF his greenhouse last winter he and
Franks crowd had been at war and un-
der the circumstances 1t was only nat
ural that he would not let them cross
his narrow field, as shown by the dash
lines, and thus save a third of the dis
tance Under the rules any route could
be taken, but it was thought best to
travel as much together as possible, and
thus make ii race"
Finally the momentous Saturday
morning of the start arrived. and the
first of the 80 contestants was sent
away from the starting point (also fin

the dense crowd cheered itself hoarse.
