CHAPTER FORTY THREE

1IlAI En- OAN I AAlANA-S
AFTER TIBBY decided that she
would take up the silver ship her
heart felt much lighter. 1t was al
most as If she already were up
among the clouds, as II, in flying,
she would be running away. After
all, II was much the same.
At the small field where private
planes were kept. she was sur
prised to run into Steena. Then she
remembered that the publicity
work often was done from this
base. She thought that Steena
looked tired, washed out, II such
a phrase could apply to her vivid
coloring; but libby felt pang Of
envy, seeing the other girl in her
trim uniform. She wondered il now
that Steena was engaged, she
would resign her position as host
ess, too. Surely Tommy would
want her to; he had wanted libby
to give up flying. libby did not
know that the engagement of Tom
my and Steena had been so abrupt
ly terminated.
"Have you been doing some spe-
cial work." That may have ac-
counted for Steena's worn look, for
libby knew she had also been out
on regular fight.
II had to come out here" Steena
Explained her presence at the pri-
gate field, ''to do some publicity.
Defense Bond drive posters and
the like. And just got back from
the scheduled run" Lately she had
been on regular schedule; she did
not know if this was due to a
shortage In stewardesses, or If
Wayne was behind it. There were
three infants aboard" she added,
groaning, though aside from the
biggest little. brat-a boy, you
might know4who wouldn't stay,
PUT, they behaved okay."
libby had to smile at the image
Of Steena playing nursemaid. The
hostess usually did have her hands
full on what the girls called baby
days" The airline knows in ad-
vance what each baby will require
in the way of special formulas,
orange juice, finely ground vege-
tables and cereals. These meals are
placed in temperature controlled
thermos jugs. AS Steena had con-
coded, babies invariably were excel
lent travellers. libby always had
enjoyed baby days" for that rea-
son; she had enjoyed, too, watch
ing the reactions Of the other pas
sengers. Now her envy deepened-
how she wished she could 60 back
to the old routine, one more fight,
at least!
What are you doing out here ?"
Steena's green eyes observed libby
shrewdly. She thought, why, she
doesn't look a bit happy! Though
she is engaged to Wayne, wearing
that enormous ring" libby had not
said anything, as yet, about her
own engagement, but the big pearl
spoke for itself.
libby said she had just come out

without meaning to say so, II miss
II So" She nodded toward the

ship. steena did not know, natural
ly, that the silver ship belonged to
libby. Even she could not have
conceived OF such generosity on
Wayne's part as that.
"Oh, I'm just going to circle the
field a time or two" libby said.
She had been advised not to take
the ship out Of sight. Of the air.
port. The restrictions regarding
private planes had been lifted, but
it still was deemed advisable to
maintain a certain amount Of eau
ton. "A few practice landings and
take-offs-I want to keep up my
time" she explained. A reasonable
enough explanation for taking the
silver ship up herself, the same ex-
PLANTATION that she would give
Wayne, II he reminded her that he
had asked her not to go without
him, or at least without telling
him.
you've got a lot Of nerve
Steena admitted, II somewhat
grudgingly. That must be what
had attracted Wayne to libby
she did have nerve Of a certain
fearless kind. Wayne, being a flyer.
would admire that, although you
would not think that that alone
would be what he would seek in a
wife. Not man in his position.
You couldn't hire me-not at
ANY price-to fly a plane"
"Ill bet you won't go because
you don't think I'm good enough
pilot" libby teased, but she knew
Steena was no coward. Hers might
be a different sort of courage than
Tibby's, but Steena had plenty o.
nerve, too.
Steena said that had nothing 10
do with it. She had had enough fly
ing to last until she had to go up
again. She was anxious to change
her clothes-she had brought bag
along for that purpose-as she al
ways shed her uniform as soon az
she could. Like Tommy. Steena
preferred a woman to look her
most feminine. She never wore

she answered Tibby's teasing chal.
lenge. Then on an impulse Of her
own she could not have explained
or could it have been premonition
she added, do, please, be care
full, Tibby!"
1t was dangerous for libby to
fly that new ship with its intricate
gadgets and powerful motors. Tib-
by was not a seasoned, experienced
pilot; she had only acquired her Ii
cense recently. Steena did not think
libby ought to take such a risk.
With all her faults, Steena would
not want libby to have an acci-
dent.
libby smiled again. She said she
would be careful She did not have
the slightest premonition.
Even II she had, no doubt she
would have gone just the same,
feeling as she did, that she simply
HAD to get away from everything,
IL only for little while.

/ hangers, the planes that we're on
the mat, the activity that went
with every airport. Il love every
bit OF it, everything that goes with
flying"
Steena knew what she meant; II
was something in the blood, the
same sort of kinship that actors
felt for the stage, although Steena
herself had never experienced that
thrill toward flying. To her it was
Just a job that had to be done. Had
she been the one to have landed
Wayne, Steena would have been
delighted to have had to resign her
position Immediately.
She had not heard one word from
Wayne since that final farewell
note, accompanying the pendant.
She did not know what he had
thought when he had received the
clipping of her engagement to
Tommy Dare. II had not brought
any result apparently. OF course
now the engagement was all of.
Steena had told her mother that it
had been a mistake, not bothering
to concoct any other ideas" in tell
ing the rest Of the world and saw
ing her own face. But she did not
believe that would make any diff
ference. Not to Wayne.
TOO bad you had to give It up
then" she said now, briefly to Tib-
by, yet ironically, since Steena did
not consider that hardship. I'm
thinking of resigning, too. I even
spoke to Miss Picklepuss about II
the other day, but she threw a At.
Said the company was short OF
hostesses-that this was no time
for me to walk out, so it looks as
if I'm staying-for a while, any
way"
She was staying on, not just be-
cause Of that. Had she resigned,
she realized, after her talk with
the chief hostess, she would have
lost all contact with Wayne. There
was not much hope, but Steena had
told Tommy that something might
turn up to change things; she had
told him she meant to wait. al
though she would not do anything
about il.
libby supposed that Steena
meant she would stay on with the
company until spring. although
maybe now, with war Fastening SO
many things to a speedier climax,
she and Tommy would be married
sooner. She would have liked to
have asked Steena, but Of course
she did not. She said, I'm going
up for a while" She had made ar
rangements to take out the silver
ship. The mechanic had said he
would have it ready in about 20
minutes. Care to go along?" lib
by added, on an impulse. She did
not really want Steena to go with
her. She did not want anyone.
Steena shook her head. mo

She had all the flying she wanted

going up alone, are you?" She
knew that Wayne was out Of town.
