All during her residence in Glas-
gov Mrs. Crawford has been active
in civic enterprises sponsored or
participated in by the women OF the
community. She has served two
terms as president of the Glasgow
Woman's club. For several years
she was county chairman for the

Valley county, in proportion to it
population, leads Montana in Rec
Cross volunteer service, with thu
thousands of garments produced by
women in every community.
But back of that bare statement
is the story of hard work and sac
rifice of Mrs. w. G. Crawford, county
chairman of the work.
Since her appointment Mrs. Cray
ford has devoted the greater part
of each week day and frequently
part of Sunday to supervision of the
work. Hours devoted to the care OF
her home have been interrupted by
telephone calls concerning the work,
by stopping to give out materials or
receive completed garments, or to
give advice about their construction.
All Kept at Home
until the opening of the Red Cross
rooms in the new county building in
September, materials received for
distribution and completed work
were kept at her home, the large
cartons filling all available storage
space and obtruding on living quar-
sters. The inconvenience occasioned
members of her family was patiently
accepted by them, and they also
have assisted her in distribution OF
materials.
Mrs. Crawford was appointed
chairman of work in January, 1910,
succeeding Mrs. c. H. Roberts, who
had faithfully filled the office for
several years, but found it impos-
sible to continue. Mrs. Crawford
had served as vice chairman under
Mrs. Roberts and had been acting
chairman during Mrs. Roberts alb
sence from the city. The increased
scope of the work resulting from
the needs of refugee people in Eu-
rope and Asia has made the chair
manship the past year a full time
job, as it was during the first World
war. when Valley county made a
splendid record under the chairman

Glasgow Males Do
Their Bit; Finish
Knitted Articles

During the first World war many
Englishmen not eligible for army
service took up knitting for the
British Red Cross as a hobby as
one way in which they could do
their bit for their country. The
present Duke of Windsor, then
Prince of Wales, was one of the
knitting gentry. During the present
war, some Americans are following
this example, and in Glasgow John
Rasmussen has turned in a COM
pleted sweater and Otto Bundy Jr.
a siX-foot muffler. Others are re-
ported to have started articles or to
be learning the stitches preparatory
to undertaking some Red Cross
knitting.

ice. 1t is not necessary that such
affidavit be filed personally by the
soldier or sailor and it may be filed
on his behalf by someone else.

There were more than dozen switches, but
she felt out the ones marked landing lights"
Johnny had taught her, and now Bess prayed
that Johnny were only watching 50 he might
know she had not forgotten. Quickly her
fingers moved.
From each wing there shot powerful
beam of light. Set into the wing edges were
the round lenses of the landing lights, sweep
ing their fingers of whiteness downward.
Then, just as abruptly, they went out.
Bess remembered well. ''P. A. :. :. N"
That was the international distress signal for
aircraft. Just like SOS" for ships. Her
fingers moved agilely.
'Dit-dah-dah-dit . t-dah . dah-dit."
That was how it went in code.

big city like Brentwood.
mo pilot" she flashed. Ship is ON instru-
ment. Pilots bailed out. Radio dead but can
hear you.
Brentwood was swinging behind now. The
quick stabs of white from the powerful search
light beams in the wings must be visible for
miles. Over across the city was the revolving
beacon at the airport - glowing first white,
then green.
With her free hand, Bess snatched up the
headphones and clamped them to one ear.
Brentwood had seen her signals!
Flight 80. Hello, Flight 32," came the
voice, charged with excitement. I'VE have
your message, 80. Keep your course. but

A glow seemed to linger in the sky up
ahead - as it always did over Brentwood
because of the forges and machine shops.
Now it was widening, and Bess could distin-
guish individual clusters of lights That
meant they were only short distance off
their course, perhaps only seven or eight miles.
OHE moved along the aisle, trying not to
Bess smiled assuringly, then went to the
pilots compartment. A quick search located
what she hoped must be there.
The plunger was down on one side, we'll
out of the way. 1t was labeled: Flares"
You could get much wider view from up
here, where the windshield looked out over
the rounded nose of the ship. The lights were
those of Brentwood beyond doubt. Bess's
hand closed about the plunger, hesitating a
moment before she yanked vigorously.
Nothing seemed to happen for few sec
onds. And then, magically, the scene below
was bathed in dazzling white light. Behind,
and dropping away, hung the great magne-
sium flare, sputtering beneath silken para
chute.
Every detail on the ground was exposed by
this artificial radiance. She could see the state
highway running eastward, and the railway
tracks paralleling it just outside the city.
There was the county hospital, high on hill
top and below it the oval of Brentwood's
reservoir.
Besss hand pulled again at the plunger,
and second flare plummeted from under
meath the plane. No one below could miss the
glaring white light. Ten thousand faces must
be looking upward now, all curious. The
moment had come

with no realization it might be their last.
She could, of course, disengage the gyro
pilot. Right under the throttles was box
that had several knobs and dials, one of them
marked "on" and off" Bess shivered at the
nightmare of trying to control these twelve
tons of metal as they plunged onward, three
miles each minute. But if Johnny were here.
Johnny would grin and let his eyes rove
cockily over the instrument panel. He'd ad-
just the throttles slightly, then take the con-
troll wheel confidently in his big hands. And
Bess knew now that she d tell him what fool
she had been - that she loved him, that he
could have all the radio apparatus he wanted
in that little bungalow they'd looked at in
the hills outside Brentwood There'd be an
tennas running all over the roof like morning
glories, and she'd study the code diligently
every day.

Dab -dit-dah-dit" for C.. .. Was there an
idea in that? Maybe Johnny was on the New
York Brentwood run tonight His take-off
was scheduled ten minutes after their arrival
So he'd be at the field.
Bess hurried back toward the cabin. Her
young face was tense, yet before opening the
little door she paused in the passageway and
rearranged her hair
"Everything's going to be all right" she
announced loudly. Just keep your seat belts
fastened. I've radioed ahead. It's okay."
1t was rubbish, she knew. The automatic
pilot could only keep them roaring straight
ahead at predetermined altitude, on a

see below now was a dark night, with lights
glowing on the instrument board. The air
speed indicator stood at IT'S m.p.h. She sat
in the captains seat and picked up the head
phones The crackle of the ether murmured in
her ears, stretching away for invisible miles.
Then, far off, she heard Flight Fl, north
bound, reporting to Montreal. She Graded the
microphone in her hand and pressed the

whined softly to life.
Hello, Brentwood" she began in a low
soprano. Flight 80 calling Brentwood The
crackle in her ears was unbroken. Bess tried
again. pushing harder on the button
Then, behind her in the narrow passageway
she saw glass - little curling slivers of glass
from the broken shells of vacuum tubes They
had left the receiver intact, but wrecked the
transmitter. A sense of emptiness throbbed
back, strong and desolating, as the huge
transport thundered across the night sky,
following its rigid, bee-line course maintained
by the gyro pilot.
WHERE the course might lead, Bess did not
dare to wonder The earth inductor compass
showed them hurtling almost due south But
Bess understood enough of flying to know
that even slight cross wind might sweep the
ship many miles off it's Montreal Brentwood
route.
She sat on the edge of the captains seat,
trying to piece some solution from the COM
plex instruments before her. That one there,
reading 200, was tachometer Johnny had
told her once how it registered the number of
revolutions made by the propellors. This one
would be for the port engine, the other for the
starboard. Their drone seemed to mount and
grind in dull monotony.
