She couldn't talk because the scene
had started, and quiet descended
like a pail over the huge stage.
Toinette was in a difficult mood.
She must be humored.

scene had been shot to the direc-
tors satisfaction, and Toinette had
left for her bungalow, Mary
grasped Kens arm.
III meet you at the car" she
whispered, and slipped through the
sound stage door to hurry after the
star. She caught her as she entered
her bungalow and said breathlessly,
May l see you? I'm a friend Of
Bruce Martini"
Toinette was visibly startled.
After one brief look at Mary she
nodded and went ahead into the
bungalow
Il remember you" she said slow
ly. you were with heem at the
Brown Derby"
Mary had no time for remlnis-
cences now. She was vibrant with
the belief that had grown steadily
into a shining hope in her heart as
she had watched Toinette play her
tender love scene before the grind
ing cameras. She crossed to sit be-
side her on the dlvan now and
leaned forward to ask in a tense
whisper.

love scene yesterday, could you?

in pretty awful trouble at Nordex."
Toinette's great dark eyes were
pools Of terror in her white face.
What do you mean?" she whis-
pered.
II mean" said Mary. pounding
home each word, that you must
go to the F. B. l. at Nordex and

Both girls swung about as the
bungalow door shut. Link Jackson
regarded them with a lazy smile
from the thresholds:

Toinette rose quickly! my

she introduced quickly.
At the door she gave Mary a
fleeing smile of farewell. II will

sight that met his eyes was the
melancholy spectacle. of two abor-

spear point foremost on his chest
They revealed their state of mind
without delay by asking. You Jap?"
1t. Sanford hastily barked a denial
and as he stod up the natives saw the
crucifix around his neck and one
said, "All right, Jesus No. l man"
Good Luck Continues.
Properly identified, 1t. Sanford's
troubles were over though it was
days before he rejoined his COM
rades again. He soon discovered
how lucky he had been. He had
landed on a section of Bremen Island
which was visited by natives once a
week to check their fish traps and
the day he landed happened to be
the day of their visit. They took
1t. Sanford to a nearby mission
which was the only such civilized
spot within 500 miles. From there
he travelled to the mainland by
lugger and finally across country to
Imbi where he got transportation
to Darwin and such civilization as
the north country offers.

1900 feet. The pilot skilfully brought
it under control and made q good
landing on the water. Although the
bomber sank within 90 seconds, all
except one member Of the crew
escaped.
Two of the flyers climbed aboard
a collapsible boat and four others
hung on to the sides in shark
infested waters. Although they
were less than a quarter mile from
shore the two flyers rowed for three
hours against q stiff wind which
continually drove them further
from land. Natives came out in
canoes but refused to help the
flyers until they made sure that
the flyers were fighting on Aus
tralia's side. They then took them
ashore, dressed the wounds Of two
injured men and gave them food
and water.
A short time later the flying boat
arrived and picked up the six flyers.
The rescued men included an r. A.
A. F. squadron leader who saw
service in the Near East before
coming to the South Pacific war
zone.
An Allied fighter pilot shot down
over New Guinea on Monday also
was found by natives. AS q reward

them with bags of flour, rice, meat,
