Summer SweetheartS

The little ship circled and
swooped.
Shes here-some place" Nj
chaeI said. we can't help but find
her"
oh, sure, certainly" the fat man
said politely. But he was not so
sure he would be in time, if they
did find her. He knew the desert.
Michael Heatheroe had not prayed
since he was a child. His mother
had taught him to pray, but some
where along the line he had for
gotten. The words came back TO
him now. Chnds words. Simple,
imploring.
God. don't let anything happen
to her"
That was a prayer. if crude one.
There was a pain in his chest, as
though a giant hand squeezed his
heart.
Want to 60 on, brother?"
That was the pilot speaking. The
fat, amiable pilot who had a date
that night back in his home town
and wanted to keep it.
I'll make it worth your while to
keep going"
"Oh, that's okay, brother"
There was silence for a while.
during which Michael's eyes raked
the countryside spread below him.
A barren, hellish waste, he told him
self. A cruel land Then he gasped.
Good God think--look there -
He handed over the field glasses.
The pilot nodded.
"Think so-yeS."
1t was a huddled figure they 50
ahead on the desert floor. Khaki
colored clothes. A bright scarf.
Wilbur made a beautiful landing
Michael never knew afterward now
he got out of the plane. He re-
membered stumbling as he ran, and
he remembered hearing the soft.
hurried breathing of the little man
who followed him
Got her, brother?"
Michael nodded He had Katha-
rine's head in his arms. Now he
was lifting her, carrying Ler gen.
tly as though she were infinitely
fragile. She was unconsciouS-she
was breathing! She was alive, thank
God!
Her poor, pretty lips were svol-
len. Her face was stained and
streaked. There was a scratch
across one cheek. They had her in
the plane now, Michael holding her
close.
Guess she had bad time of i,
huh?"
The fat little man turned his
ship back toward Claymore. There
was a doctor there, he aid.
THEY put her to bed in the house
Il of the woman whose husband
was in charge of the flying field
A bare ranch house, but the linen
was clean and the little bare room
had a shade at the window. The
doctor came shabby man in bag
gy clothes, and Michael waited in
an agony as Mrs. Darragh and the
physician disappeared within
Guess I'll be pushing off, broth
er," Wilbur said. Michael said,
Wait a minute" With hands that
shook a little, he fumbled for his
wallet.
The pilot shook his head, as
though regretfully. Sorry, brother,
but I can't take it. 'TwOuldnt be
right. I've got a girl myself"
She's my wife, Michael said,
mo fooling? Well, congratula-
lions, brother
You think she's going to be all
right?"
why, sure. She'll be right as
rain. See if she isn't"
Michael wrung the mans hand.
Whatever happened, he could never
thank this man. Some day, per-
hapS, he could try.

at this adventure later on. Or
would they? She remembered read
ing the story OF a man and woman
lost in the desert. They had been
middle aged lovers. The man had
left his heart medicine at home so
as not to appear handicapped to his
bride. the woman had not worn
her spectacles for the same reason.
And so both had persisted, one be-
cause Of his seizure, the other be-
cause she could not see to lead them
out of their trouble
All. but Katharine was young and
strong She shuddered, remember
ing the story. That could not hap
pen to her. Death was something
far away and unreal, not to be faced
just now.
She saw a far-aWay speck IN the
sky and whirled, her heart in her
mouth, thinking it might be a plane
and that she might signal it. But
it was only a great bird-there were
other birds in its wake-wheellng
and circling Buzzards!
Horror-horrorl 1t tore at her
throat. The sense of it, closing in
on her, made her shivver as with
ague.
Five minutes-had it only been
five minutes since she glanced at her
watch dial last? 1t seemed hours
years!
A sagebrush root tore at her ankle.
She stumbled. Fell. Rising again,
she realized that she had hurt her
ankle cruelty. Not a sprain, per-
haps, but nearly so. She stumbled
on
There was no pity in the aching
sky, no living thing in all the world
to pity her. Only the burning and
heat and silence, and far-off, the
birds wheeling and swooping.

handed.
Evelyn Vincent stepped forward.
OF course Hilda must go. 1t was

Michael WINGED at the words.

and roared. Michael remembered

The pilot was tubby little man

made a hobby of it-but if the lady
or the gentleman wanted to go up,
why, sure, he'd be glad to.
Michael, briefly, explained. Glen
Wilbur whiStled Yes, he knew the
region. Come along - they'd get
started pronto.
Hilda got back into the car
Michael had been driving. She said
she would go back to Miss Vincent.
The poor lady would be half-dis-
tracted Hilda, as yet, wouldn't let
herself think of Dirk-or Frank
either. OF course, they were old
hands at this desert business. And

We need two discards and we can
not discard dummy's losing dia-
monds on the hearts because the
hearts will be ruffed if trump is not
played. and if we do pick up the
trump, then we will not have any
trump in dummy to ruff the losing
diamonds in declarer's hand, so
let's try and count the hand an
other way.
We do have five heart tricks, a
diamond is six. the ace of clubs is
seven. Now suppose we were to ruff
three clubs: that would give us 10
tricks and then if We could take
three spade tricks, we would have

ing March, when Pennsylvania Airlines
carried $3.50 passengers. This total is
nearly seven times greater than the
total for any previous March in the
long history of this pioneer airline and
is almost twice the total for October,
1888, the previous best month in the
company's history.
Pennsylvania, one of the Nations
oldest airlines, has been in continuous
operation for eight years. During
these eight years, March always before
has been a slack month. Although air
travel Is growing rapidly in all parts
of the country. the phenomenal in
crease on the Washington Detroit line
Is far above that for the country as a
whole and is attributed in a large
measure to the new high-speed Boeing
transports recently put into service
The Liberty airplane engine, back
bone of the Nations wartime airplane
construction program, is about TO dis
appear except for museum purposes,
from the Army Air Corps. Instruc-
tions have been issued to Air Corps
depots to list as surplus property for
disposal all the old Liberty engines,
spare parts, equipment and accessories,
except those obligated for loaning to
schools.
Service activities, with the exception
of Kelly Field, Tex, the home of the
Air Corps Advanced Flying School
have been instructed TO dispose OF
the Liberties. Kelly will keep three
Liberties and sufficient spare parts for
the maintenance of one Liberty-en-
gined transport plane assigned to that
station.
Standard Warnings Planned.
A system of standardized warnings
has been adopted for use at Depart
ment of Commerce intermediate land
ing fields which may be entirely or
partly closed at intervals, due to deep
snow, floods or soft ground. In the
past this marking has been left to the
discretion of district managers, each
OF whom had his own system of mark
ings.

the car, there is much to be gained
by understanding how this system
works. First, however, let us look
into q conventional rear end and see
what are the major features.
There Is the rotating propeller
shaft, which carries power from the
motor as delivered through the clutch
and transmission. Let us assume
that the gears are IN high and that
the engine and propeller shaft rotate
at the same speed-known as direct
drive. At the rear end Of the pro-
peller shaft is a pinion gear which
meshes with a large ring gear at
such an angle that this rotational
power is redirected on q line with
the rear axle. There are differential
gears in this rear-end unit to make
possible the slowing down of the
inner wheel whenever the car goes
around curve or corner, but In
the normal straight-ahead position of
the car the ring gear rotates the
rear axles equally. Obviously, II the
pinion gear has one-fourth the num-

car will have reasonable economy an

If the rear axle ratio is fixed tn"

She has TO compromise. With higl
and low ratio, to be selected as oc-

CHRISTMAS SEALS

Here is a preview showing Of the
1885 Christmas Seal which will be
used this year by the Delaware Anti
Tuberculous Society in its twenty
ninth seal sale for funds to carry on
its campaign OF prevention and con-
troll of tuberculosis in Delaware.
Miss Emily P. Bissell. president
of the society, commenting on this
years seal, said: The design Of
the seal was chosen from an incident
in the development Of the mail SER
vice in this country. II pictures a
little girl cOstumed in the period of
1860 to 1870. about to drop a letter
into one of the first post -iboxes we
had in this country. The boxes were
placed on gas lamp posts and were
oHen called lamp boxes. The seal
pays tribute to the herOism and cOur-
age of the countless cOuriers Of the
mail. II is most fitting that this
years tiny health seal. which always
symbOlizes a united desire to con-
troll tuberculosis, should commemO-
rate this important service which
has done so much for the welfare OF
our citizens"
The seals this year are expected
to be of special interest 10 phila-
tehsts. AS a departure from pre-
NiOus years seals, the corner seal
in each sheet Of one hundred this
year has a different design. In the
seals the dOIble+barred cross
is shown in fOrma9izing design, and
he slogans Tuberculosis is Prevent
able, tuberculosis is Durable, Pro-
-ect Your Home From tuberculosis, |
and Help Fight tuberculosis are
used on them. Plans for the seal |
which begins on Thanks
giving Day are now being formulated |
by the society officials.
