bl FACE SIXTERN "The GOLDEN GIRL By BARBARA WEBB hour the trio came back, Fred trail. ing in a few minutes later. "Now we're going to make our plang for naming the Golden Girl," Connie announced. "She is having her last coat of paint today and we ought to be able to name her about the day after tomorrow. I'm going to ask every one on the field to be present and we'll all come here to the Crowsnest for coffee and sand- wiches afterward. We'll have the newspapermen, too--"' Cameras were trained on her she stood, a slender green figu! looking very small indeed by the side of the giant plane. "I christen thee, Golden Girl," she cried, "and may luck ride with you on your every flight." There was applause as So-so stepped back into the circle of her friends. while the purple liquid streamed down the side of the Golden Girl. "She ought to be called the two Golden Girls," a reporter nearby commented, as So-so and Constance posed together for a picture. '"Down in Rio where she's going they have the idea that all Ameri- can girls are gold-plated, anyway," another' one answered him. So-s0 was glad when the cere- mony was over. As the date for the take-off approached she was filled with forebidding." It's silly," she told Constance as they all went back to the Crowsnest, made brave with evergreerr for the occasion, "it's downright foolish, but I'm what my father would call 'fey' The Golden Girl, the plane in which Jerry Corbett and Fred France plan =a flight to South America, has made a successful trial cruise over Mineola Flying Field. With the two fliers in the plane is Solange Harper whom all the customers at her ing field iunchroom know as So-so. She has long been in love with Jerry, but he is engaged to Constance Terry, whom he taught to fly. After the flight "Oh, no you won't" Jerry broke he wires Connie in Florida, [in.

"Don't hide your light under a : bushel," Constance told him. "You're going to succeed, why be silly about publicity?" "You couldn't hide the Golden Girl under the Rocky Mountains." Jerry retorted. '"Who's going to name the baby?" ""So-s0, of course, Didn't she name the Icemaiden and I've never had a suspicion of trouble. So-so's Another Christening So-so did not go down to meet" Constance when she returned that Friday. Jerry wanted both her and Fred to accompany him. and was inclined to be peevish when So-so refused. old wooden elevator can be seen in the background behind the masts of the boats on the left. .... ...

'Connie hasn't seen you for a month, She'll want to carry you home for dinner and hear all about the Golden Girl plans from you. You ought to know by this time that four is a crowd where . ani engaged couple is con- cerned." "Oh, Connie wouldn't mind, she likes a crowd. Come on, So-so." But So-so was not to be coaxed and she wondered once more at the nonchalant attitude Jerry and Con- stance took toward their engage- ment. " If IT were engaged to Jerry and hadn't seem him for a month "Nope. ft--r" us going," Jerry finished. "Connie will get worth. nis," Clayton put in, "Did she?" estedly.

"Don't tell the boys," Constance warned. "Jerry isn't a bit nervous, but I think Fred is. There's been a funny look several times on his face as though he were scared about something," "Not Fred," So-so defended him stoutly. 'He's just as crazy to go as Jerry is." "I know, and no one could have worked harder at getting ready. Just the same something is troupl- ing him. I know it is. Maybe it's you So-so, why don't you be extra nice to him between now and the you' pet I wouldn't' want any one else horning in," she told herself. So she was not prepared for the acc unt Jerry gave her of the meet- ing the following day. He came to the Crowsnest fo wait for Connie, who was driving out at non to in- spect the Golden Girl. "And that fellow Clayton Rob- bins sure knows his aviation," he went on after mentioning Connie's arrival, "He's going to make that invention of your father's go like a house afire or I miss my guess.

ULTRA-VIOLET RAY WILL GARRY 'SIGHT' Invention Expected To Be Invaluable in Time of War Newark, N.J., June 6--The pri- vacy of darkness has been pierced. It is now possible for two people to see each other in the dark. And that goes for a distance of 10 miles. The mechanism that puts the owl to shame, demonstrated by its inventor, Paul A. Kober, here re- cently, consists of a televisor oper- ating with ultra violet waves. As easily as it shatters the dark this beam of ultra-violet light can transmit sound. Thus a new radio lane has been opened. But there is a difference between this and it a most po age. You"l Medal Tea. and mellow flavour of Gold Medal have made ar bever- like Gold GoLD MEDAL TEA radio broadcasting Yor. 3 while any- body may tune in, in the latter case, the "'dark light' transmission is secret. This principle is expected to be of great value in time of war in the transmission of messages. be- tween ships or between airplanes, as the messages will be invisible and can be sent where radio sig- nals and light beams would be im- practical.

Fred isn't any dif- ferent than he always has been. He's always been quieter than Jerry." She forgot her anxiety that night when Freq brought copies of the evening papers to show her, "Here you are, old lady," he said. 'Big as life and twice as natural." So-s0 took the proffered pages. There she was, posed with 'the bottle of grape juice in her hand at the side of the Golden Girl. Under- neath the picture ran the caption, "Miss Solange Harper, naming the new airplane, 'The Golden Girl.' { which Jerry Corbett and Fred France, pilot and navigator, respec- tively, will shortly attempt a non- stop flight to Rio de Janeiro." "I don't look so awfully bad in the picture, do I?" she asked. "No picture does you justice, So~ 0," Fred said. Some memory of Constance's ad- vice about being kind to Fred al- lowed So-so to leave her hand in his for a moment and to bid him a and we'd be sure to get it if we uged champaigne, even the pre-war vintage," Constance replied. "It's your funeral," Jerry said. "So far as I'm concerned all this nonsense about gold paint and grape juice is so much baloney." "Oh, let the girls be sentimental way he can put Connie under his thumb if he takes a notion. Wish I could manage her that way." ""They've known each other since they were babies," So-so volunteer- ed. Anson Balgson was forced to de- stroy his driving horse after it had been kicked in the field, breaking a leg. Sunday was a. gala day for Zion, when a crowd of people turned out to the anniversary services. The church was prettily decorated with ferns, tulips, bleeding heart, lilacs, lily of the valley and house plants. The school children did their part well in the singing and Rev. Man- son Doyle, of Toronto, gave a wdh- derful message. In the evening the choir gave three anthems. Aléx McMaster sang a bass solo, Miss Annie McMaster sang a contralto solo, Mrs. T. Mar- tin (sang a soprano solo and algo a duet with Miss McMaster. Mr. Doyle again delivered a splenawu sermon. Collection for the day was $40.
