CHAPTER XLVIII


Sally did not know just what
to do.
1t was one thing to smartly
smack Ted Sloan across his cheer
full, freckled face when he tried
to force his love making upon
her. as he did nearly every time
they were together.
But it was going to be some
thing altogether different to deal
with this older man. who was so
much more a man of the world
and so much more serious and
determined than Ted ever had
been.
Moreover. Sally was ratified.
She looked up at Davidson with
astonishmen: and confusion writ
ten in the blue-clear brilliance of
her eyes. Her parted lips made
no sound. She could think of
nothing to say. She felt as if
her brain had stopped working,
or as il it were whirling-she
didn't know which.

down upon her other shoulder,

1t turned out to be something
like the frock she had wished for
her first party at Anne Morrow's
so long ago. Only that was to
have been like daffodil but
this was paler and sweeter, rather
more hollyhock in the way pale
gold frills dropped about her
slenderness over stockings and
slippers Mrs. Haiden had tinted
faint green.
She walked sedately out River
Road but when she turned in at
the gateway of Highcliffe all her
senses quivered to an exquisite
excitement. She stood a moment
with her hands to her throat,
trying to make her heart stop
knocking so. She had an absurd
illusion that Kent would be wait

a stone bench. Rose vines swayed
overhead, spilling a soft fragrance;
far below the river ran liquid sill

brightness where little waves

Emily stole in here, sat down
with an awed happiness, relaxed to
the charm of splendid night. No
problem to ponder out here; only
beauty. A rushing tide OF beauty
rising about her, overwhelming
with gentle peace.

Italian moonlight on the loveliest

his words were, but he had the
gift of vividness; she saw him
drifting on night like this be-

the blue of the sky; drifting lazily,
lonesomely, while songs waited
from the shore.
But you loved 1t, Kent?"

DC. Inventor Perfects
Plane Brake to
Aid Stops

The invention Of an airplane
brake, by which planes can be
brought to a stop within twice
their length after reaching the
ground, was announced here
today by C. Francis Jenkins, a
Washington inventor. The in
vention consists Of a propeller
reversing device, which is auto
matically inoperable while the
plane is in the air and which is
released by the wheels striking
the ground.
Jenkins declared his device
would permit the landing of
planes on the roofs of large
buildings, the decks Of battle
ships or in any other limited
area.
He has obtained a patent on
the device.

FAVORABLE WINDS HELPED

KOTTBUS, June '. (P)-Favorable winds enabled the Columbia to negO- tiate the open sea between Cape Race and the British Isles in 21 hours. Not until Chamberlin entered the channel than the meteororogical conditions turned unfavorable. Chamberlin said
 When we got above Cologne Sur Mer we decided to steer a northeastern ly course and head for Coblenz, al though I don't know whether we actu- ally flew in that direction About 5:3O ill the morning I observed we were running low, so decided to drop down for replenishment Refilling the pc trol tanks was a most disagreeable Junction. We threw empty cans over- board occasionally. A full one went that way, too. But I was desirous of reducing ballast"
 Chamberlin admitted that Berlin was the goal after first landing. A hundred litres of petrol had to be hauled on a bicycle from a distant garage to the plane, which delayed the takeoff which put them in the fog.
