 He could have been joking, in- deed he must have been. It was 8 way he had leased her before. And yet, she was literally under his orders here; she was in effect a private under his captaincy and command. Certainly no male pilot in this strange kite tail would have dared act like pretty Pat was actingl
 But, then, man Is a man. and girl is a girl: the armies of the world will always have to take the difference into consideration. Espe- cially. no doubt, if the individuals are in love.

Matter of technical interest. This being hooked onto one tow line seems to function somewhat like 8 real kite. You get me? My power plane has a real tail. and the tail steadies 1t in the storm! Or tends to. Maybe we discovered something"
 That significant idea gripped all of them.
 '"This may or may not be im- portant," Jimmy told them. We can break our necks, men, or we can see it through. Whats your wish?"
 "see it through! See 1t through, Captain see It drought"
 That came as a quick chorus. A chorus of courage, in all truth. The radio sets were cracking and splitting noisily now. Jimmy feared they might go out entirely.

FLOUNDERNG CHAPTER XXVIT

Number One - all right, Cap tainl"
 Number two - all right, Cap tain!"
 Plane number three-all right, Captain!"
 Crisp reports like that flowed to Jimmy Carr at intervals from all 10 of the sailplanes he lowed. What about you, Pat" Jimmy fadioed that personal question. He couldn't remember to call her Lorraine, for the real Lorraine sat beside him. pouting. Anyway, this was no longer a time for any sort of masquerade. Realistic facts confronted them. Directly ahead and around them was Q snorting Becky Mountain storm.
 It had risen - like a great black 9enii from the earth itself - just beyond Four Peaks. It swept across the crags of Superstition Mountain It began with a sand blow, characteristically, then 1t added pebbles. hailstones, and slashing rain. It was a fury beyond anything Captain Jimmy Carr had ever known.
 Up and down his kite tail. " ships were bobing and dipping like so many corks on a pond. Number three plane snatched at the tow line so as to send 8 whip like wave. Simultaneously. every body radioed their fears back at Pat Friday.
 Hold 1t, Number 10! Look outl Carefull"
 Pats tail end plane, the cracker Of this sky whip. took the snap Of tt But the plane held on.
 Next minute the blow was even stronger. It came not steadily, but in jerks and shorts that were ale most cyclonic. In the tow ship, the real Lorraine Stuart had screamed twice in terror and Jimmy himself was deeply con- eerned. On him Of course rested the responsibility for all. But Jimmy, trained on the eastern sea- boFad, knew nothing of Rocky Mountain storms. This one had trapped him before he realized fls power and wrath.
 Cant turn back yeti" he Ea. dioed to his trailing pilots. Don't want to give 1t Q full sweep at us from the side. We're all hooked together, Fememberl"
 sAny visibility?" somebody asked.
 "ZeTOl" Jimmy answered. "Fly- ing entirely by instruments but staying fairly well on the course. Listen, men"
 "Yes. Jimmy" Pat checked in. 900.
