hands when Col. Isaac Trumbull

Tumcc. The new company was
known as the Trumbull United

enlarged program.
The program includes forestry,
control of pests, medical research
and establishment of a marine
laboratory.
Significant beginning had been
made in some aspects of such a
program, especially through the
work of those operating Duke for
est as a field laboratory for many
types of research in which men,
bers of the departments of for
estry, botany, and zoology partici-
pate, it was pointed out.
There are, however, officials
said. other detectives in the pro-
posed regional research program,
especially in regard to the South's
two major crops-cottOn and to-
bacco.
A good deal of experimental
work in relation to tobacco is be-
ing carried on through the coop
Grafton of the departments of
chemistry and botany.
Closely allied to the agriculture
and forest problems, officials said,
is a much needed study of the
flora and fauna of the state. A
coordinated survey of the flora
and fauna of the mountain re-
gions, it was said, should be made
comparatively by several institu-
tions and preferably through a
joint biological institute.
Such an institute, it was point
ed out, could include one or more
inland field laboratories and a
marine station at the sea coast.
Beginnings for such stations are al

relaxation to stay keen for such
a man."
Everybody laughed, dismlssing
the incident lightly, but, deep in
her heart, Kay faced a struggle.
The look Illah had given her in
Manila on the honeymoon was
neatly and precisely closeted in
her mind. The temperance of
this woman was going to be Sc
we're challenge to Rays faith in
Ted.
She long had anticipated her
wedding anniversary. For weeks
she had counted the days, even
the hours. Ted was due from
Hawaii the day before the ami
versary, and Kay planned little
dinner for them, lone, even ex-
Guiding Dickie. She spent hours
on the menu, and did most of the
cooking herself.
Then she went happily down to
the landing to see the Mariner
come in. But Ted did not walk
down the gangplank with the crew
of six. The acting captain handed
her his letter.
Kay read it through a mist Of
tears. He had been detained at
the company's office in Honolulu.
He needed some advice from an
expert there on a feature of his
gyropilot. He was coming in on
the next plane, a few days later.
And he had forgotten their first
wedding anniversary! He didn't
even mention it.
At home Kay cried a little. Then
Doris came in with Ralph Bangs
and an invitation to a gay party.
Doris tried to console her friend.
'It's too bad" she said, "about
Ted being held up in Honolulu. |

anniversary, and we were going
to surprise you both with a party
tonight"
Even Doris had remembered the
date!
"We're going to dance at the
Presidio," Doris said.
Kay smiled at them, holding her
arms wide. "But to dance at the
Preside l have to have man."
"That's easy" Doris advised.
"Well call up Monte. Poor Monte !!

Suddenly Rays eyes danced
with an inner fire. She picked up

for Monte's number.
"This is Kay" she said when

Kav Dunn, pretty airplane
stewardess, falls in love with Ted
Graham, veteran pilot who flies
the trans.Pacific route.
Ted, however, is not interested
in romance. He is devoted to two
interests: his job in the air service
and his adopted son, Dickie, Z
years old. Dickie and Kay become
close friends and soon the three
spend much time together.
One night Kay and Ted have a
long talk in which he explains his
views on marriage. To be success
full, he says, a marriage must be
planned scientifically, just as a
plane flight. Kay does not agree
to all this, but when he asks her
to marry him she says yes.
The marriage takes place and
the honeymoon is a flight to the
Orient. Later, with Ted away for
weeks at a time, Kay is lonely.
She tries to keep busy, caring for
her home and for Dickie. Ted is
working on an invention, when he
is in port, spends less and less
time at home.
Kay is deeply disappointed be-
cause he is unable to be home for
Christmas. She gives a dinner
party and later goes with three
friends. Doris Lee, Ralph Bangs
and Monte Blaine, to dance.
NOW co ON WITH THE STORY
CHAPTER XVIII
The first quarrel Of Kay's and
Ted's married life ended in re-
Cancellation, but it left its mark.
Ted promised to spend more time
at home when he was in port and
Kay agreed she had not meant
her angry words. But the con-
flict was still in their hearts. Kay
knew it and Ted knew it. She
could see it in his eyes when he
kissed her goodby before his next
trans-Pacific flight.
For several days after he had
gone she was strangely quiet. She
would sit for hours, gazing across
the distant reaches of the bay.
Finally, after a struggle, she took
up life again as it had been in the
little house on the sands. She
was less tense than before. She
had stopped worrying about Dickie
and had become his partner. They
plotted adventures together-usu-
ally at night after Dickie had on
his pajamas, ready for bed.
The child talked less and less
about his mythical brother and
soon seemed to have forgotten
him. Dickie had so many real
friends now he didn't need to i'm
agine them. He and Kay spent
gay afternoons on the beach, at
the airport, at the little cabin in
the San Carlos valley.
Occasionally Kay had guests
from the flying colony at the cab
in. Doris would come with Ralph
Bangs when their differences were
sufficiently composed. The colony
was compact little group now.

Kay. He had received his promo
tion from apprentice pilot to pilot,
and everybody was pleased.
Throughout the spring nothing
disturbed the tranquility of the
colony except the occasional rip
pies of gossip at bridge.
"So-and-so saw Digger in Hon
olulu last week, and he was with
a pretty girl. Buzz. Buzz"
In this way a rumor reached
Rays ears, third or fourth hand,
that Ted had been seen in Homo
lulu with a foreign girl called
Illah.
1t was, Kay felt sure, the same
Illah she had met on her honey
moon in the Orient almost a year
before. The news was not reas-
surfing to a lonely wife's peace of
mind.
But Kay laughed off the table.
Doris had repeated it to her be-
fore some others, and Kay tried
