The family of Lieut.. Gunior grade)
Herbert Schiff, L. S N r. F., a naval
aviator who was killed in line of duty
at the naval air station at Hampton
! Roads, Va, July II, has presented a
memorial trophy to the Navy Depart
menr for award to the naval pilot
who flies the greatest number of hours
a year without serious accident
In Offering this trophy in memory
of their son the family feels it will
serve to stimulate interest in naval
flying and in the reduction of avia ton
accidents.
At the time of Lieut. Schiff's death

weeks active training period at the
naval air station. Anacostia, D. c., and
had flown to Hampton Roads, where
he was killed. He was junior mem

under which the trophy will be

partment.
In accepting the trophy Secretary
Wilbur, in a letter to the committee,
said: "It is an excellent plan, for it
will not only tend to add to the mo-
rale of the service, but is a fitting
tribute to a young man who gave his
life to the service after having served
so faithfully and loyalty"

Some Feat.

From the London Opinion.
Two men were trying to outdo each
other with tales of cleverness. When
one had finished a remarkable story,
the other said:
why. that's nothing. I know a
stonemason who has only one arm.
Nonsense" said the first man. How
does he do the work."
"Oh, he holds the chisel between
his teeth and hits himself on the
back of the head with the hammer

they suddenly seemed to vanish.
Whatever walls she had built around

and so those who watched concluded.
Teddy DorTminster was frankly wor-

There was some marveling at the
persistence Of the bond which held
Yvonne and Joanna together. Be-

Prince Michaels. the Opera or at the
fashionable gatherings among the
villas. There had been a deep in
terest in the vaguely rumored ro-
nance between the young and
wealthy American girl and the
promising young architect whose
dream in stone was coming true. It
was believed by some that Joanna
was surrendering him too quietly not
to have a design in reserve. Others
pointed merrily to Kenilworth,
Brandon and Dorminster and re-
marked that the field of her choice,
and of her variations, was wide.
Perhaps Martha, who, at times,
and in the secrecies of the blue and
gold and scarlet boudoir, lapsed from
the in.passiveness that should hedge
in humble maid, and put her arms
around the girl who slept in the
big bed, might have added some
thing to any discussion of her
mistress. Particularly after that
mistress had sat up in the bed, knees
drawn up and chin resting on them,
silent and almost pulseless, through

They would have spoken of the

After that first day, the day Of his
arrival. when her heart was ready to
leap to his, but, was repulsed, she
had been whatever his current mood
dictated that she should be. At
times he put his arms around her
and drew her to him, and there were
silences between them. At other
times he was detached, moody. To-
day, Joanna knew, he was fighting
with serious hurt.
The first weeks OF his visit had
been a calendar Of notable occasions
for him. The Prince of Monaco, in
terested always In topics and pro-
posals that are Of human merit, had
honored him with a command audi
ence and had presented him to that
distinguished group OF scholars and
scientists. and many worthy men OF

He was silent, she left him for a
moment to give an order to the
Annette gardener who supervised the
sorting of the blossoms which were to
shed their perfumes for a night and
then wither. When she went back
to him John said, with the blunt sud
denness that echoed a determined
resolve:

stubbornly on:

Again that quiet, soft interruption.
Tell me. John; are you going to
marry me?"
This time she was looking at him.
He could not evade those brown
eyes that were darkened by the
purple haze in the air, and whose
customary fires seemed TO have
cooled into a lazy shoulder. While
he shifted nervously, she drove in
her challenge:

Memories Again

- + the visit of Lady Weymouth
left it's impress upon Joanna.
I only Roddy Kenilworth and
Teddy Dorminster sensed it. Neither
of them knew of the appeal to the
Golden Girl by the sister Of one Of
them, but BOTH in their separate
regard for her, were conscious of a
subtle, but insistent change in her.
John might have realized 1t. too,
but his was not a sensitive observa-
ton. And, as the days passed,
Yvonne had drawn him closer and
closer to herself alone. That Yvonne
was deliberate, and merciless, in her
fascination of the young architect,
whose name had so suddenly become
known around the world, was ap-
parent to all that gay circle which
worships, like glittering dervishes Of
a Luculian cult around the shrine
where all is gold that glitters.
AS Dorminster had repeated to her,
echoed, and as even Lady Wey-
mouth might have said, those who
watched were quick to recall it had
been promised that when the bril-
liant, always dazzling Yvonne Cou-
tant decided to strike back. there
would be a crash. The crash, they
predicted was on its way. And the
ruins it woull leave would be the
Golden Girl.
If there had been restraints fixed
by Joanna for her bewildering revel,

terpreted as a reminder that even a

It was not wistfully said, nor in
reminiscent tone. She was standing
apart from him and spoke as If voic-
ing a casual thought. A frowp came
into his forehead.
"Those are not good memories to

gives them a sting"
She looked at him in open wonder
ment. If this wonderment was a
mask, she concealed it skillfully.
