of thrilling escapades.

patches to the German consul in
Shanghai. Rising in his aircraft
he sped across country for five
hours, planning to earth in Chi

had never before seen man fly
believed him to be god. When
he buried the engine of his plane
and burned the wings they

him a devil, fleeing in terror.
The aviator then tramped 400
miles to Shanghai, where he de-
livered his message and then. OBJ

belonging to Scotch-American.
This brought him safely through
