Lila, dressed for travelling, stood
in Dorothy's studio and implored
her.
tits the last favor I'll ever ask
of you'll" she begged.
Dorothy's cool glance went to her
watch.
There's scarcely half an haur
before your train. Yes, could
make it. But what earthly good
will this postponement do, Lila?"
IT don't know" confessed Lila
desperately. But I'm just like a
condemned criminal; won't give
up all hope until they lead me to
my execution"
Dorothy rose from her drawing
board and quietly slipped off her
smock. She rang for her maid.
Pack bag quickly, please. Put
in changes for several days"
She turned to Lila.
"I'll be ready in ten minutes. Have
you your car, or shall I call taxi?"
Lila stared at her admiringly.
IT have my car. Oh, Dot, there
isn't another girl like you in all the
worldp
In ten minutes Dorothy appeared,
wearing a smart beige tailleur and
a little hat of roSe-colored straw.
She carried an expensive looking
dreSSing-caSe.
Ready" she announced, with a
faint smile.
In the car, she said to Lila:
Perhaps I haven't mentioned it
but your Captain Farquahar and
1 parted on rather strained terms.
I don't believe he'll be very glad to
see me, and, as for Herbert-well, it
seems to me that I'll be decidedly de
trop all around!"
Lila squeezed her fingers.
what do you care? You don't
give a snap of your fingers for either
one Of them"
Dorothy made no reply, but a
queer little smile played around her
pretty lips, as she watched the eddy
ing crowds through tn window.

/ devices in their planes pilots now
are able to fly safely through fog
and storm, except for one thing.
No one yet has been able to de-
wise an altimeter-which shows a
pilot his altitude above the ground
under all conditions. Airmail
pilots are hopeful that DR.. Alex
anderson's new device will meet
this need.
Nothing But BarOmeters

using are nothing but barometers,

mail pilots. Smith now is superin-
tendent of the eastern division of
National Air Transport.
Theoretically, when air pressure
lessons altitude has been increased.
But practically, this may also mean
the plane has plunged into an area
of lower pressure.
Several of our pilots have been
dashed to their deaths against
mountain sides because of this, when
they thought they were flying at
safe attitudes.
zone of them was Charles H.
Ames. He was killed in 1925 when
his plane crashed against a noun
tainside near Bellefonte, Pa.
Hits Low Pressure Area
"AmeS had run into a low pressure
area as he flew west from New
York His altimeter apparently
showed he was flying at a safe al
titude, because it was adjusted for
weather conditions when he left
New York"
But there are other dangers which
instruments and other modern de-
vices have thus far failed to COM
bat. One Of them is ice, the most
feared foe of airmen.
From late fall until spring ice
clouds are an ever present source
of danger. Sometimes pilots can
pillow through them up into clear
air and fly over them. But at other
times their motors are unable to
Surmount the ice clouds.
Landing Often PeriIOus
Still another danger which con-
fronts pilots and sometimes takes
their lives comes when they find
themselves at the end of their run
or with their gas supply low and
forced to come down in weather so
thick they are unable to find a safe
landing field.

Storm Note-Sauk Centre has
been fortunate, as compared with
other portions of the state, as to
the number and severity of storms
of late. There has been much
rain here this season but no change
has been done to speak of. One
night last week there was wind
storm which broke limbs off some
of the trees. The skylight in the
K. P. hall was broken and some
other minor damage done. Sunday
was oppressive the mercury climb
ing up to about ninety above zero.
There was a hard rain Monday
night but no damage was done
here. At Osakis there was a
water spout resulting in the demol-
ition of boats and wharves. The
Great Northern track was washed
out at a point west of the town, de-
laying the early morning passeng-
err trains. In southern Minnesota,
at Austin, Mankato, and a number
of other points, there was great
damage done by wind and rain. In
Sank Centre the weather was
bright and clear Wednesday
morning and the indications were
good for fine weather for some
time.
Frank Ebert, of Little Falls, has

Mr.. Ebert expects to move to the
location tomorrow or Saturday. D.

of the store, will leave Sank Cen

where he will go. He will remain
