" THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JUNE 4, 1929 ° The GOLDEN GIRL | Sod INSTALMENT NINETEEN ! Solange Harper, whom all the aviators dropping in at her Mineola Flying Field Ilunch- room call 80-80, has been help- ing Jerry Corbett and Fred France, two fliers, with their Christmas shopping. Jerry is engaged to a wealthy girl he taught to fly, Constance Terry who is vacationing in Florida, and amusing herself with Clayton Robbins, a friend of long standing. Fred is in love with So-so, but she loves Jerry. The two aviators plan a flight to South America in their plane, the Golden Girl. First Tests Christmas morning dawned clear and cold. So-so opened her eyes to tind Chloe standing by her bed, "Merry Christmas, Miss Solange. Mr. Fred and Mr, Jerry just tele- phoned to say they was comin' over for breakfast. "They'll be here in half an hour." "Merry Christmas, Chloe; there's a package for you there in the left- hand drawer of my dresser. I'll get right up." Chloe rummaged in the drawer and brought out a package. "I'll wait and open it when you-all open yourn at breakfast after while," she said, carrying it. away with her and prodding {its sides as she went. "I'll bet you can't wait that long, Chloe," So-s0 called after her. "Ob. yes I kin; I got one from Miss Constance yesterday and Mr. Jerry and Mr, Fred got sumpin for me, t00." So-s0 ran to the window, threw it up for a moment and drew in a deep breath of the keen cold air. Then she slammed the window shut and dressed hurriedly, collecting her presents for the boys as she fin- ished and started downstairs. She was decorating the table with hunches of holly when Fred and Jerry came in. "Merry Christmas, So-so,"" they called. Jer 'v eld a bunch n° mistletoe in one hand. "Stand suil, So-so. I bought this for Fred; he was too bashful to get any for himself." Fred caught her and kissed her squarely on the mouth, Jerry fol- lowed suit and they all turned at a chuckle from the doorway where Chloe's ample form blocked the entrance. "Bet you-all ain't gonna held it over ole Chloe's head," she said laughing. "You'll be going home for a vis- it this afternoon. Chloe, and get plenty of kissing. I'll bet,"" Jerry teased her. 'When preakfast was ready Fred said, "Presents first. I want to see what I got this year. There's a box from my mother that feels suspiciously like an old-fashioned plum cake among other things." They cailed Chloe in, "You're first," Jerry told her. Very soon Chloe was surrounded by boxes and tissue paper and her ample bosom and arms were de- corated with a variety of bracelets, heads, a large dinner ring which Jerry had bought for 98 cents as a joke, but which Chloe admired ex- tra santiy. "Never 'had a ring '| this happy Christmas with her. .&. By BARBARA WEBB like this here before," she gloated, "and think of Miss Constance and Mish Solange both given' me beads; pretty, ain't they?" "Not Solomon in all his glory--" Jerry began. "You're right, Mr, Jerry", Chloe interrupted him, "the lilies of the field got nothing on Chloe this Christmas." Solange. attacked her pile next, There was a string of jade from Constance, a tooled leather writing case from Jerry, guest towel from Chloe, and at the bottom Fred's huge box. 'What In the world is this?" So-so asked, pleking it up and shaking it. "Open it and see," Jerry advis- So-so tore off the wrappings and disclosed the flying costume. "Oh, Fred, you 'shouldn't have done this --1 just love it, though," and she ranher hand over the soft leather. Freq flushed with pleasure. "I thought maybe you'd wear it when we take Golden Girl up this after- noon," he said. "I'd love to, are you really going up in her this afternoon?" "Sure thing--we've got a test load abroard, we want to see how much she'll stand, then if all goes well we'll wire Connie the news." So-80 had bought a themos bottle in a leather case and warm flying gloves for Fred and Jerry. "May- be you can use them on the flight," she said shyly as they thanked her. "You bet we can," Fred sald. "Warm hands and hot coffee; we'll need em both on this trip." Jerry was unwrapping his pack- age from Constance, "Well, of all things!" he exclaimed, "measure for measure. Look at this," He held up a strap watch with one of Connie's cards dangling from it. On the card she had written, "I didn't have it engraved because I thought you'd like to have the time of your takeoff and the time of your land- ing put on it after your trip." "Connie has swell ideas, doesn't she?" Jerry said, strapping the watch to his wrist and admiring it. "But it's funny my sending her a watch, too, isn't it?" She had sent Fred a completely equipped first-aid kit with a note that said, "Just in case" on it. Presents disposed of, they sat down to breakfast. lingering over their coffee and discussing plans for the coming flight. After breakfast they left to do some final tinkering before taking the Golden Girl up in the afternoon. "I'll be back for you at one," Fred told So-so when they left. "Be sure you're ready and all dolled up in what the well-dressed aviatrix will wear." So-so promised. The house seem- very quiet after they had gone and So0-so sat musing, regretting that her father could not have shared At noon she went up to put on the new flying costume. "I really am pretty in this," she thought with a last look in the morror before she went down to show Chloe. "Land of goodness," that worthy exclaimed, '"'you look just like the pictures in the paper, Miss Solange. I bet Miss Constance goin' to get one like that, pants and everything, an embroidered |. minute she gets back." Fred could not keep the admira- tion from his eyes when he came for her. "Wait until the boys at the field see you, So-so. They're all around to see us take the Gold- en Girl up. You'll knock "em cold, . every one." So-so had to stand for a good deal of chalfing that ftornoon hat don't know whether you look more like a parrot or a peacock, So-s0," Clark told her. "Never you mind, So-s0," declar. ed Francine, who had recently be- come Mrs. Clark, "he's just jeal- ous. I'm going to have one like it, only blue. I think it's slick." "She looks more like a bird of paradise to me," Mack said, In- specting So-so gravely. "That's what Fred thinks she is." Jerry said, and there was a general laugh, for every ome on the field knew Fred's long seige for So-80's affections. The gavety died away when the Golden Girl was wheeled out of her bangar. Even with her first coat of paint she was a glistening and peautiful object against the Christ- mas snow. "Bad day for a test glight, if Clark said critically, "strong head winds from over the sound and you've got a big load there." "She'll make it," Fred declared. "In with you, So-so, we'll show these doubting Thomases what a pair of golden heels look like." The engine was tuned, Jerry shouted "Contact," the Golden Girl gtarted down the field, strain. ing at her load. After three trials when the giant ship failed to take the air Jerry choked off the engine. "Too much load," he decided. "I'll get out," So-so offered. "You didn't plan on having the weight of an extra person aboard. Try it with me out of the cockpit." Fred scoffed, "You? Why, you don't weigh any more than a feather." "I weight a 115" So-so told him. "And that's probably a 115 pounds more than you plan to carry." "We'll try it once more," Jerry said. "So-so may be right, thougn I had hoped we could allow that much leeway over our gas when we start on the big flight." Once more they taxied down the field. This time the big ship took the air without a murmur. "She just needed warming up. I kaew she'd do it," Jerry shouted back, wheeling the Golden Girl in a wide circle over the field. They flew about for half an hour, Jerry twice sending her straight into the wind and bucking the gale gallantly. Down to a landing and the comments of an admiring crowd. '"'She'll do," he announced. "Nothing sweeter than that eng- ine." There was real affection in his voice. "Some girl!" and he laid his hand on the golden hood. They went then to telegraph Constance. "First test successful. Hurry back to have your share in the fun," he wired. Late that night he had an answ- ering were "Congratulations. Come ing back Friday. Love all around, Constance."

The party then gathered around the outdoor jumping ring where Mr. McLaughlin's two daughters, Mrs. W. E, Phillips and Miss El- eanor McLaughlin, put some of the most famous of the jumpers through their paces. The perform- ances of the riders won hearty ap- plause from the members of the party, who were amazed with the ease and dexterity with which the horses were taken over the most dificult of jumps. A final exhibi- tion, in which My Delight was put through her paces as a saddle mare, ended this part of the afternoon's program at "Parkwood", Felt at Home The party then adjourned in- doors, where the visitors wandered through the spacious rooms, enjoy- ing the many fine works of art to be found in the art gallery, Soe found enjoyment in the bowling al- ley, others in admiring the beauti- ful mural decorations, and others in the conservatories, with their richness of gorgeous bloom.

He sent a sample of the coffek to a Parisian poison ex- pert, who reported the presence of a poison. Comtesse de Lareinty, who wus a Princess Demidoff before her marriage, states that members of hiuse panties and relatives staying at the chateau also showed symp- toms of poisoning. Suspicion fell on a Spanish valet named Baptiste Carbonnel. A de- tective visited the chateau under an assumed name and he also felt unwell after the morning coffee. He questioned Carbonel, who is alleged to have confessed that every morning while carrying the kitchen to his room, he dropped poison into the coffee. A phial count's breakfast tray from the was found in the valet's room. Ccnfession Retracted Carbonnel declared that the poison had been given him by Illia Pedan, Prince Youusoupoff"s Rus- sian valet, who promised him 50,- 000 francs when the count died. Then Carbonnel suddenly retract- ed his confession. Prince Yousoupoff, who is now on a visit to Vienna, has expressed the opinion that the whole thing must be a mistake, as Pedan had an excellent character. Comtesse de Lareinty has told the newspaper. the Journal, that the Spanish valet appears to be a mere tool in the hands of Pedan. She added: It has been said that Pedan, who was unaccustomed to being treated as a servant, swore that he would avenge himself because my hus- band made him sleep in the ser- vants' quarters, and put him in his proper place during a visit which his master paid to the cha- teau. But I do not think that is the real explanation. I believe that Prince Youssoupoft's enemies, who have sworn to avenge Rasputin, were behind the plot. CANADA TO TAKE PART IN CONGRESS P. B. Fowler to attend Inter- national Chambers of Commerce Meeting Montreal, June 4.--For the first time, Canada this year will take its place among the great countries of the world at the biennial con- gress of the International Cham- ber of Commerce at Amsterdam, Holland. As first of the men to represent Canada, P. B. Fowler, president of the Victori, B.C, Chamber of Commerce, and man- ager of the Canadian Bank of Commerce in this city, has been chosen. When the congress is held, from July 8 to 15, leading business men from 43 nations will be gathered together. Belonging to the International chamber are 950 business organiz- ations in addition to many business houses which have joined individ- ually. The world-wide organization arose nine years ago out of the need for discussions on commercial and business problems of interna tional importance. Alberto Pirelli, president of the international chamber, who is a rubber manufacturér and a senator of Italy, sent a special invitation to the chairman of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, Dr. John W. Ross, saying that it was felt imperative that Canada should be represented. BLOW-FLY MAGOTS RAVAGE SHEEP Estimated One Carcass Can Breed a Million Flies sve se Vancouver, June 4, -- Serious losses to sheep flocks in British Columbia have been caused by the depredations of screw worms or blow-fly maggots which have gain- ed a strong foothold in certain parts of the dry belt of the inter- ior. Several kinds of flies, which or- .dinarily breed in carrion, occa- 'Mionally lay their eggs in wounds on animals or in soiled wool on the hind quarters of sheep. In Aus- tralia the pest has grown to such an extent that it is regarded as the worst trouble that sheep men have to contend with, ana the extensive use of certain parasites of blow flies, has been resorted to as a means of ridding the flocks of the scourge. It is estimated that the carcass of one cow can breed a million Aha Use this instead of soap and { La ie a Po Mil flies and mors any PAGE SEVEN EE i ml RES filles are known to have been bred from one pound of soiled wool.
