Yep Is It
Navy Plays War Game:
rs Radio Stations
Keep Tab.

BIZ United Press
VXTASHINGTON, Oct. 3O.-The
w navy department is play
ing war game with the German
dirigible Graf Zeppelin, but the
dirigible crew doesn't know it, the
United Press learned today.
Unknowingly the Graf Zeppelin
is acting the part of an enemy"
craft.
Twenty-six naval radio compass
stations along the Atlantic coast
are keeping their instruments
trained on the giant dirigible as
she noses her way back home
again.
Every time the Graf Zeppelin
uses her radio, the navy stations
catch dots and dashes and re-
port their findings to Washington.
Two minutes after every mes
sage is sent from the dirigible. re-
gardlesS of whether they are
commercial or official, the navy
knows the airship'S exact position.
When the dirigble made her
westward passage over the At
lantic, the navy radio compass
stations picked her up as an
enemy" craft and followed her
course hour after hour from 1,500
miles out until she finally berthed
at Lakehurst, N. j.
at was the best opportunity
the navy ever had to test our
radio compass stations against
invading enemy aircraft" a navy
radio engineer explained.
There was never a time after
the Zeppelin was in radio COM
munication with the United States
that we did not know her exact
position" he said.

words came to her-"She said you'd

impulse was to stuff the hat in the
stove, her next to try it on. 1t was
every bit as good looking as the one
Amelia had worn herself. And, good
land! Sarah looked just as good in 1t
as had Amelia in hers. 1t covered her
gray hair. Her soul hankered for it.
SARAH" She whirled round Cliff
ford had come in at the back door and
stood regarding her with pleased look
on his face THANK goodness you've
got a decent hat at last! No-dont re-
move it. Let me look at you. Why,
Sarah, girl, you're not old. were not

got me a job! No letting myself
slump from now on. Zip and stamina
is my slogan. Can you keep up with
me, Sarah?"
She looked straight in his eyes. The
corners of her mouth twitched.
"Oh. I'll keep up with you, don't you
worry. Clifford Cobb" she said grimly.
Sarah did keep up with her husband.
Indeed. she sometimes outdiStanced him
in the race he had set for himself.
Suppose they did sacrifice few bonds?
Clifford was now getting pay envelope
and they could afford to let themselves
go a bit. The house began to look trim

and tidy within and without. Sarah
sang at her work. The neighbors came
to see what was going on, were inter-
ested and continued to be friendly. Miss
Calkins, the dressrnaker, was gayly busy
with a new wardrobe for Sarah. Sarah
began to appear in skirts almost as
short as Helen Merrithew'S and in the
same style shoes and silk stockings.
And she wore Amelia's hat. Yes. she
wore Amelia's hat because after all she
was grateful to Amelia for starting
something.
She was tripping about her remodel
ed kitchen one morning when some
body knocked at the back door. 1t was
Amelia
Maybe Clifford told you I intended
to come back and see you," Amelia
said. She glanced admiringly about the
room. at Sarah. Isn't this fine? Aren't
you fine?"
Whats the use of getting limp and
witty around middle life?" retorted
Sarah brightly. "All the Faulkners had
that falling I'm a Faulkner. But
won't own to the failing. No, indeed
Zip and stamina is my slogan"
She paused for Amelia was eying her
sharply, recognizing her own words
doubtless. Amelia, how did you ever
come to send me that cherry colored
hat?" she demanded.
Amelia looked astonished. 1T sent
you no hat. I was going to write to
you but didn't get around to do that
even. Probably Cliff got you the hat,
Sarah. He said you'd been married 40
years that day was here and told
him he ought to get you an anniver-
sary present. My husband always gets
me one"

failing, Cliff, you've no business to wilt
down with her. Your folks had zap
and stamina. Your dad was Splendld
man at 80. You'll probably live to ne
SO yourself, and what will you do Tor
the next % years?
God knows!" Clifford struck his
hands together. Say, Amelia, come
into the house and talk to Sarah Just
as you've been talking to me-"
Amelia! Even if the woman had not
turned and shown her face. Sarah
would now have known her. Amelia
Scott, who had been such a spirited
competitor for CIfford'S love that
Sarah had had to put in her best llcks
to get him for herself. Amelia Scott
returned out of the silent mystery OF
years to stand here with Clifford in
their garden and accuse him of being
the victim of the Faulkner failing!
Sarah's taut upper lip beaded with
perspiration. Instead of retreatlng 10
the house and there awaiting Clifford
and Amelia, she fled to Mrs. Peek'S
arbor. From this secret hiding place
she saw Clifford go indoors and heard
him calling for her while Amelia stood
on the back porch.
Never mind" Amelia said. Il can't
stay any longer now. III stop and see
Sarah next time I'm driving out this
way" She walked nimbly away to a
big blue car that was parked under
the elm. She got in, shifted gears
noiSeleSsly and rolled away.
When Clifford returned to the garden
Sarah crept home. Back in her kitchen
she visualized Amelia's presence and
interpreted Amelia'S impression. The
smoked wall paper. the worn-out limo
leum, the broken stove. She shivered
as if she were cold.
Amelia Scott, she's Amelia Wills
now. stopped on her way through the
town." Clifford said at supper. She
wanted to see you. 1 looked all over
for you but I guess you'd stepped out
some place. Amelia was looking fine
She had one of those new sedans. She
said she would stop again. She said
you'd hear from her in day or So"
Next morning Clifford went away on
some mysterious errand. Not long after
the doorben rang There stood mes
senger with a hatbox unmiStakably for
Sarah. She took it. she opened it.
Within was such hat as Sarah had
never owned. an alluring thing of
