THE next morning was overcast

and after flying through several
storms landed in bayfield, at For

on the final fight to Shakopee,

foot altitude and losing that rapid

mediately, but the only choice of
landing places lay between a swamp
and high trees. I took the swamp
and cut the throttle.
When the wheels touched earth
they rolled about twenty feet, sank
in to the Spreader bar and we
nosed over.
The rudder did not quite touch

but when tried to open the clasp
with one hand, holding on with the
other to keep from falling out on
my head, I found it to be damned.
After several futile attempts to
open it, I reverted to the two strap
buckles at the end of the belt to
release myself from the cockpit.
All this required not more than
two. or three minutes.
After getting out of the cockpit I
inspected the plane carefully. Again
there was little actual damage.
The propeller was badly cracked
and would have to be replaced;
there was crack in the spreader
board, which required winding with
strong cord. Otherwise, the plane
was in perfect condition, although
Splashed with mud.
For once there was no one in
sight, and I made my way through
the swamp to the nearest farm

On the way I found that there
was solid ground along the edge
of the swamp less than one hundred
yards from the plane, from which 1
could take off.
The farmer had seen the plane

his way down toward the swamp

JUVENILE CRIME

Statistics Show 95 Percent
of Young Offenders
Use Drug.
BY ROBERT TALLEY

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10. - The
alarming increase in the use heroin,
most insidiouS of all narcotics, was
blamed today by Capt. Richmond
Pearson Hobson, president of the
World Narcotic Defense Association,
for the juvenile crime wave that
has brought a new type of banditry
throughout the country.
Prison statistics show Captain
Hobson declared, that 95 per cent
of youthful criminals are users of
this drug. Since its commercial ex-
ploitation began about 1917. Cap
tain Hobson said, offenses against
the federal anti-narcotic laws have
increased from 1000 to 10000 a
year.
The hero of the Merrimac, now
bald and gray, sat in his headquar-

Until the Death of L0Ue DO You Part
Lewis Browne Finds Heavy
Demand for His Modern
Wedding Service.
BY HORTENSE SAUNDERS
NFA Service Writer


MTEW YORK, Feb. 18-Nothing
~ Lewis Browne, author, has
written has been more popular than
his modern marriage service for
modern people"-with this ending:
Behold, you now are man and
wife until the death of love do you
part"
This ceremony fast would become
best seller, if it were for sale, but
it is not. Browne marries only per-
sons he knows, and this just as
gesture of friendship. He accepts
no fee.
AS a former rabbi, Browne is en-
powered to perform the marriage
ceremony, and as an author he has
wide circle of friends, many of
whom are writer's, artists, and DO
hemians" who always are willing to
wait until death as distinguished
from death of love does the parting.
Devises Simple Ceremony
Many of my friends have been
married and divorced more than
once" he explained. Second and
third marriages sometimes are a bit
difficult, since priests and ministers
froWn upon divorce. AS a rabbi, I
performed many marriages in the
regulation Jewish form.
Then one day after no longer
was a rabbi, a friend asked me to
officiate at his nuptials. He had
been divorced, and so had the wom-
an he was to marry.
They wanted a small home we'd
ding. They were not Jewish, so the
ceremony I always had used would
have had no meaning for them.
II was obliged to change the
ceremony somewhat, so devised
one based upon the old Quaker form,
very simple and sincere.
"Since it really is not the form
of ceremony that makes q marriage
binding, there is no reason why the
actual words should not be what the
parties really wish to subscribe to.
No More, No Less Binding
while my new rite was no more
and no less binding than the more
elaborate form, certainly it was
more honest. Since that time many
