Most of the pilots who will
compete in the Transconti-
mental Air Derby from Wash
ington-Hoover Airport Sunday
are unassuming chaps whose
outside interests are probably
as prosaic as those of the
average Washingtonian.
For instance, there is J. E
Owen. of Asheville, N. C. He is
Q dentist.
Once a Stunt Filler
However, he sends his plane
over the air lanes at speed of
100 miles an hour and thinks
nothing of the danger that is
in every flight. He says:
81 have settled down as
dentist but still like to fly
once in a while. l use my plane
occasionally in my business,
especially when patient out

Flying Since "a Kid"
He enlisted in the Army Flying
Corps during the war when he
was still in high school. And he's
still flying. He said:

only natural that Jones should
suffer with the rest.
He hesltated for some time,
but he finally took action His
contract with the outfit in
question had until 1881 TO run.
He saw the necessity of slash
ing his admission prices, but
he couldn't possibly make both
ends meet unless the cost of his
film rentals was reduced at the
same time.
So he appealed to his pals.
He wrote first to the president
-"his pal and friend through
the years." Then he wrote,
wired and called the others all
along the line In each case the
answer was the same.
We're sorry" they told him,
but YOUR contract runs until
1891. We cannot help you."
But" Jones pointed out,
how about the many times I
helped you out? If it hadn't
been for me, there's a good
chance there wouldn't have

He Helped Them

Whenever they needed money
which was frequently-the
struggling picture organization
would wire Jones for an ad-
vance on their pictures. Jones
would advance the cash, get the
films out of hook and peddle
them for the picture concern
before his money was returned.
Sometimes it was even neces-
sary for Jones to send them
money to cover themselves on
checks they had phonied in or
der to keep going.
I wish we all had friends like
Jones must have been to that
picture concern We'd all be
a little happier, l guess.
We'd skip plenty of years and
open our second chapter in "a
thriving city in the Middle
West. Jones has moved from
Seattle and has opened a pic
ture house in the city in ques-
ton. His loyalty to that con-
Germ has not changed with the
years. They did not need him
now as they had needed him in
days gone by, but Jones is still
with them heart and soul.
