Paper and transcribe them neatly"
You haven't a bit of romance in
you! If only you could blush!"
1T makes me blush to think Of the
tactics that women use to get their
men. I'll have no part of it,"
"Oh. you won't? Then. my dear,
you'n never have one of your own"
'Thark you very much. 1 have a
good job and that'll hold me for .
while"
Suppose you lost your job?'
Joan looked at Betty with a
stricken. startled glance. "Oh. Betty,
don't say things like that. 1 suppose
I could get another one but it would
be like having the bottom drop out
of my world. l adore my job"
you mean you adore Julian
Sloane. I've been around and I
know. I know lots more than you
think I do. know you've been
fastening onto Donald. That's only
because you aren't getting the right
outlet for your emotions. It's Julian
you want but you think you can't
have him so you try to transfer the
things you feel for him to another
man."
IF you had said that 20 me about
Win. might have agreed with you,
but it isn't true Of Julian Sloane and
no amount of talking me into it is
going to do any good"
I'm only trying to help you but
We'll skip it. But don't forget what
I said.''
Joan was reminded of Betty's adj
vice few days later. She had been
taking dictation from Julian and he
had gone into a silence. She was
gazing dreamily into space thinking
of nothing in particular. She was
startled to hear Julian say:
What are you thinking Of gazing
so dreamily into space, Joan?"
Would it startle you if I were to
tell you was thinking about your
"Startle me?" Julian looked boy
ish-and happy.
Joan opened her notebook. shall
we go on?"
Betty telephoned her.
Joan. did you see Tommy Twit-
ter's gossip column this morning?
Then do see it,"
Joan bought copy Of The World
and turned to Twitters column. She
read:
Sheila True does not deny that
her romance with the young
French composer. Pierre Durand,
is nearing altar direction.
That was just fine!

answered Betty with complete Tack
of gallantry. But she is beautiful
1 saw her last year in Tanning
Teresa and she was the most divine
thing. She always gives a brilliant
performance. l wouldn't miss one Of
her plays"
Wouldn't you think she'd have
married Julian?"
mo, 1 wouldn't think anything of
the kind. Why should she? An I'M
married actress always has more
allure and they're all so selfish, they
never have time for wifely duties.
OF course, 1 don't know anything
about him but -
He's the most unselfish man."
Joan had no grounds for that state
ment but she didn't need any. I'D
hate to see him marry a woman who
wouldn't be a story book wife to him.
You know what mean. Not the
kind of a woman who'd trail him
around but the kind who would take
care of him, be a companion and be
satisfied with just being his wife,"
you mean a combination of wife,
secretary and nursemaid, JOAN"
I'm a manner. yes"
"And in another manner, YOURSELF"
ooh, let's talk about clothes.
Every time we get together, we seem
to be talking about men, and I'm
pretty fed up with them at the mo-
ment." Donald had done that.
"All right. Well go into a huddle
over that beige suit of mine. In the
meantime. have bunch that Julian
is what you need. He has fame and
money and you're crazy about him.
That's the way real love begins
That maternal complex about a man
is much more real and insidious than
all the deep passions. Watch your
step and remember that a secre-
tary has the best chance of getting
her man. You might try wearing
super-sheer black stockings and a
good faint into his arms is a time
honored tactic"
He'd probably faint himself if
anything like that happened. Let's
have look at that beige suit"
Now, what I'd do" Betty was
warming up to her subject. I'D let
him catch me gazing at him dreamily
as a starter. From there you pro-
gress by easy steps. Hang on his
words. Tell him how wonderful he
is. Bring him a glass Of milk in
the middle of the morning. :"

CHAPTER IS

"MARRIED?" Joan's question re-
yerberated startlingly around the
walls of Betty's living room when
the latter announced that Donald
possessed a wife.
Don't look as though he had COM
mitted terrible crime, Joan. Lots
Of people get married and it doesn't
work Do you mean to tell me that
he forgot to mention it to your"
Forgot to mention it is hardly the
right way to put it." Joan answered
tartly.
"rIow many dates have you had
with him?"
Lots"
81 suppose he made love to your"
Don't be silly. OF course he did"
II see. And never mentioned
Linda?"
mot a word Is he living with
her?"
Sometimes. Stunning girl but
spoiled. She has all the money.
When Don came down from Harvard
he hadn't a cent. He went to work
for Linda's father-P. f. $utter. Wall
Street-and the old man took fancy
to him and invited him cut to the
Suffer country place. LINDA went
hook, line and sinller for the New
berry smile and handed him her
heart. hand and fortune on a silver
platter"
So that was where Donald's money
had come from! The very apart
ment where he had entertained her.
asked her to spend the night, was
his wife's home. Joan despised him
and herself for ever having felt as
she did about him.
Being married to Z rich girl isn't
much fun I guess. Don and Linda
got along all right sometimes. Don
did very we'll in business, too. Made
a flock of money-given a fine start.
Every once in a while they're going
TO get a divorce but then Don goes
down to Aiken and Linda comes back
with him"
Joan intercepted with:

ested in him. But I do think it's
pretty low Of him. I don't mean his

Betty changed the subject. Some
times she couldn't cope with Joan's
point Of view.
you know what 1 think would be
a fine idea for you? I think. from
all you've said that Julian Sloane
would be the answer to a maiden's
prayer. Why don't you go and get
him?"
HE isn't gettable. Betty"
ANY man is. Could you be in
love with him, or is that necessary? ?"
1T would be necessary but you're
talking right through your bonnet to
suggest such a thing. He's in a diff
ferent world from mine. He's
different from anyone else I've ever
known. When I first went to work
for him. was terribly intrigued but
i soon got over it I'm not sure
about the state Of his heart but I do
know that Sheila True, the actress.

MORE VEHICLES
FOR COMMERCE
TO Be SOLD IN'37

More commercial vehicles will be
sold in 1887 than in 1886. This is
the belief of w. E. Holler, vice-presi-
dent and general sales manager of
the Chevrolet Motor Company, who
this week cited general business con-
ditions in support of the view. These
conditions, in conjunction with the
company's 1887 organization and
product make the outlook so encour-
aging that Chevrolet has projected
225,OOO units as it's truck sales goal
for the year. This will be 10000
unit increase over the 1886 total,
which in turn is the highest CONNER
cial vehicle volume in the company's
history.
"The current year," said Mr.. Holler.
"has seen large volume of truck re-
placement sales, especially to large
fleet. users whose equipment would
have been replaced two or three
years sooner, had times been normal.
During the coming year, we look for
a substantial volume of truck busi-
ness as a result of the general i'm
provement evident in 1886. Business,
industry, and agriculture alike will
contribute to this increase, for all
three are in better shape than they
were year ago at this time. All
in all, the outlook for commercial
car and truck sales is very good"
That Chevrolet is organized to take
maximum advantage of whatever
sales potential the market offers was
evident from Mr.. Holler's review of
the activities. to be conducted by the
sales department during the coming
year. Every department group-ad-
vertising, service, parts and accessor-
les, quality dealer, used cars, retail
selling, to mention only few-is en-
barked on its own program, which
dovetails into those of the other
Worcester Democrat and the ledger-enterprise., 1936-10-23

groups to provide closely-coordinated
action, with higher quality opera
tions as the overall result, he said.
"The balanced operation with which
Chevrolet comes into 1887 extends to
all departments of our business" said
Mr.. Holler. "The three primary
phases of the engineering,
manufacturing, and distribution
have all received their due share of
attention in the formulation of our
plans.
Except for minor changes which
this years operation has suggested,
the general plan of organization is
identical with that under which all
Chevrolet truck records were broken
in 1886. Truck sales performance in
connection with this years models has
been as remarkable as passenger car
sales performance, which is certainly
an indication that we are on the right
track. Truck sales for the year will
total the highest of any year in Chew
rolet history-2O5,O00 units. For six
consecutive months they exceeded the
10000 mark, another record unparal-
leled at any time in the past. In
view of the product and the organi-
zation with which we approach the
new year, and the strong probability
that the market as a whole will show
furthd expansion, our 225,OOO
truck goal for 1887 is by no means
out of reach"

LONDON. June 8. - (UP).-
Archduke Otto, pretender to the
Austrian throne, demanded i'm

thorities in the village of Munster
which recently elected him an hon

ARMY AVIATOR
FLIES BLIND
ACROSS THEU.S.
Sealed in Cabin Plane
Eaker Makes First
Flight of Its Kind
BY THEON WRIGHT
United Press Staff Correspondent

LOS ANGELES, June 8. CUP
Sealed in the blind cockpit of a
tiny Boeing pursuit plane, Major
Ira c. Eaker, army flier, yester-
day completed the first transcon-
tinental "blind flight" accom-
plished entirely with the aid of
instruments.
Eaker took off from New York
in his single-seater fighting plane
at l2:l5 p. m. last Wednesday
and set the ship down at the
Union Air terminal here at l lis
p. m. Sunday. Flying time: %
hours 10 minutes.
The Boeing was accompanied
by convoy plane flown by Maj
| w illlam h. Kepner, but Eaker was
in darkness all the time except
for the lights on his instrument
board. Eight stops were made be-
tween New York and here.
Eaker used compass and auto
matte turning and banking instru-
ments, and radio information sup
piled by the convoy plane. He
was able to keep his plane on its
course without a single mishap.
eve had two incidents" the
pilot said. Both were thunder
storms, and both were second
hand as far as | was concerned.
II never knew we passed thru
them except for what Major Keep
ner told me over the radio"
The flight was made to test
practicability of "sightless fly
ing" in army air maneuvers, but
Eaker said the commercial inn
portance of the feat lay in its
proof of the practicability of
"blind flying" through fogs and
storms, with adequate ground ra-
dio facilities.
Eaker said he conceived the
idea of a transcontinental blind
flight" during the period when
army pilots were flying air mail
routes early in 1884. Brigadier
General H. H. Arnold, then COM
mander of U. S. army air forces
at March Field, Riverside, Calf,
approved the proposal and auth
orized tests.
Major Eaker was co-pilot Of
the Question Mark" which set a
world endurance record in 1929,
and Kepner was on the crew of
the first army stratosphere bal
loon flight. Both are attached to
the army air corps at Maxwell
Field, near Montgomery, Ala.
The plane made stops at Wash
ington, Spartanburg, S. c., Mont
gomery, Ala, Shreveport, La,
Dallas, Midland and Ell Paso, Tex,
and Tucson, Ariz. Eaker shot his
plane, still "blind," over Mines
field, then circled to Union All
terminal where there are "blind
landing" facilities.
