1eeC as SQe again
assembled. They saw the taunting wave
Of tiny, gloved hand.
Does he also own the Department
OF Commerce." asked Perry curtly
His companion looked into the hard
glitter of blue eyes.
I'D keep my mouth shut if were
you, Moulton."
Thanks" said Perry dryly and
started out on the field as the plane
lost speed and altitude in true land
ing.
He half walked, half trotted at the
side of the craft as she TAXED it in.
The girl looked curiously at this hand
some young man with the stern face.
Then she cut the engine and climbed
out. He did not offer a hand.
Listen he said curtly, lust what
do you call that sort of exhibition"
she looked over her shoulder quick
ly and slid off her goggles. She
smiled and overlooked the implied
criticism.
I'm Genevieve Grey" she said
simply with manner suggesting that
was enough answer to his question
you're new here. aren't you?"
"Yes. Perry Moulton, pilot-with
some common sense. When you try
killing yourself do you generally en-
danger an innocent countryside?"
She still smiled, but a little hard
ness was evident at the corners of her
mouth.
Didn't you," she asked quietly, like
my fying?"
He met her gaze coolly and found
himself thinking inwardly how salts
factorily brown eyes went with dark,
reddish -tinged hair.
In circuses," he said curtly, they
have clowns to do stunts"
She drew back stifay. For an in
stant there was tense silence be-
tween them. Then her hand moved
swiftly and he felt the sting of her
glove across his face.
The color flushed his cheeks hot
ly. I'll return that" he said, quietly.
She turned toward the mechanic
Put the plane in the hangar" she
said curtly and strode away.
Perry's face was pale then with
little splotches of color coming and
going. The mechanic covered q grin
and started solemnly:
"The marines have landed"
He caught a furious glance and said
no more. Together they showed the
plane to its place.
THE next morning Perry had plan
of his own. 1t included very
early visit to the hangar. close in
speetion of her plane. a trim, two
scatter, open cockpit. It was built
along the lines of the latest fast
scouting planes.
He also coaxed an Office clerk to dig
him up the manufacturers specifica-
tions and spent another hour studying
them carefully. meporizing the ind

When the, girl
came for her plane
Perry met her af-

the shad1ng OF her

thought much less

Gun Shot Saves Golf Balls.

Crows are so bad on the golf course

The local bank manager has come to

calmly. and I've handled them bet
ter than you do. You think you've
had some dangerous flying. Lady. you
don't know what the word means!
II suppose" she said, "a man on
the ground may easily talk 50 braVely.
He looked at her with a curious
twinkle in his eyes, not at all the twin
kle of a man fearing airplanes-or
women.
"or off the ground" he said coolly.
Have you the nerve to fly with me3"
Her face flushed angrily. Have
I the"
"Okay."
LIE CLIMBED Immediately into the
L L front cockpit. For moment she
hesitated, but when he made another
grinning allusion to her nerves she
grimly took her place behind him.
Buckle your belt and be sure your
parachute's in order!" he shouted back
cheerfully above the roar Of the start
ing engine.
She obeyed silently. They waited
for the engine to warm, then he took
it up and up until the field seemed
but a tiny patch beneath them. He
turned eastward until they were above
the ocean.
For the next half hour the flight
was a hair-raising series of loops, rolls,
tossing, turning, straining of frame,
fuselage and occupants in tremendous
downward rushes which seemed to
tear the wings from the craft.
Perry Moulton put all the deadli-
ness of an official test flight into it.
When he brought it down on the field
he had to help her out. Her hands
shook in his and color had fed her
cheeks. But he was too grimly con-
scious of her flight the day before to
give sympathy.
Nov. do you realize" he asked saw
agely, what deadly thing stunt
ing plane is? Do you know what it
would mean to hit q crowded school
yard instead of open water? You're
not brave. You're not amusing.
You're a flying fool!"
* v
Her face was still pale with the
= terror Of feeling whistling death
clutching at the wings.
I'm sorry" she said.
How sorry?"
She stood erectly before him. It
wasn't until afterward that he thought
he'd never seen a person he admired
more.
Enough" she said, ito take back
what I gave you yesterday"
The pilots stern features softened.
Finally he grinned.
Thanks" he said. THAT makes
the job worthwhile. You deserved
a sock yesterday. Today-well I'll
trade my rights for company at lunch" I"
Her eyes lighted as she smiled back.
"I think" she confessed, "ths trade
has definite attractions"

TAKOMA PARK, Md, April 10.
Candidates for mayor and three
members Of the Takoma Park
town council will be selected at the
annual town caucus Monday night
at 8 o'clock in the fire department
building.
The present mayor, Frederick
L. Lewton, and two members of
the town council, Peter Remsen
and Royal @. Sherburne, have de-
clined to stand for reelection, it
was learned today. and they will
need to be replaced at the May
4 election.
Orcutt Seeks Reelection
The remaining member of the
council, whose term expires this
year, Capt. Harold w. circuit, has
Signitied his intention to stand for
election for q second term. He
is now completing his first two
year term as q member from the
Prince Georges county section Of
the town.
Mayor Lewton will complete his
second term June 80, while both
councilmen Remsen and Sher-
burne will complete their fourth
consecutive terms on this date.
While neither the Republican
nor Democratic party has ad-
vanced any candidates for the
mayor or councilmen's seats TO
date, public sentiment leans to.
wards John r. Adams, veteran
member of the present council, for
mayor, and it Is reliably reported
that both parties will support his
candidacy If he will accept the
nomination.
Should Mr.. Adams accept the
nomination for mayor, he would
have to resign his present seat en-
the town council, since his term
does not expire until next year.
This would create another vacancy
in that body to be filled at this
time.
To qualify as a candidate for
mayor, a person must be 80 years
