Fred was splashing about In the bathroom and Jerry settled bimself before a desk, pushed aside % mass of papers and reread Con- sie's second cable, De. d, it ran, "Feel now our sagagement terrible mistake, Don't want to marry you but will it you insist. Am sure Solange loves you and has for a long time It you don't want to break engage- ment sow we can talk it over when you return. Am asking for release however, Your trip has given tre- mendous boost to aviation general- ly, Clayon is working like mad on the Harper invention, will probably have good mews for Solange when you return, your success. Breaking our en- gagment doesn't mean We aren't friends. With warmest affection, Constance." Jerry laid it down and lit a clg- arette, "Just like Constance to try to plan the whole thing for us all, I wish I didn't owe her father such a lot for backing this trip. He'd never have done it if it + hadn't been for Connie thinking she wanted to marry me, And then there's Fred. So-.so's promis- ed to marry him, and though she hasn't mentioned it, T have an idea that wild horses. wouldn't make her break her word, What a mess -=Connie signs waivers on me and 80-80 gets engaged to Fred--'"' He left the message on the desk and stepped out to the balcony to pace up and down, look at the Southern Cross riding low In the sky, and try to puzzle out this seemingly hopeless tangle, Fred finished his bath, wrapped himself in a towel and strolled into the betirooom, Connie's cable caught his eye and thinking it one of the numerous messages of con- gratulation that had come to them he pleked it up and read Jerry's translation of it, He could hear Jerry's footsteps pacing steadily back and forth on the balcony, Was Jerry in torment over Connie's decision? He believ- ed not. More likely he was in tor ment over the fact that So-s0 was I'm heartily proud of promised to ¥red, He had seen the long look So-s0 and Jerry had exchanged on landing, that mute farewell, that understanding of each other's hearts, For a mom- ent Fred covered his eyes, trying to dtive back the pain that over. whelmed him at the thought of what he was about to do, Then very carefully he laid the cable down and pulled some oth er papers over it. Jerry should never know that he had read Con- nie's message, He joined Jerry on the balcony, glad of the dark- ness, determined to keep his voice steady at all costs, "Meditating, Jerry?" hy asked, "Meditating, Fred. Tt hardly seems real that we're here--I can't believe in all the flowers and balmy breezes--it's a great coun- try, isn't it, Fred," "And what a welcome--Jerry 1 want to talk to you about some. thing personal." and in the flare of the match Fred could see his face go white, : He gripped the rall of the bal- cony and continued, "Just before we sailed, you know, So-so promis. ed to marry me. We were driving in my car and T had one of those attacks like I had in the Golden Girl, T think she was sorry for me as much as anything else--and she was frantic with fear of what would happen on the trip, I've lov- ed Bo-so for a long time you know, but--but I love her too much to ask her to marry me, now that I'm the wreck T am." '"Nonsence, get a good doctor on the job, follow his orders, and he'll make you sound ag a nut,' "I'll have to give up flying." Fred went on, "Even if T can be cured it's a long pull and means babying myself for the rest of my fife. It isn't fair to let Sogo sacri. fice herself to me, Jerry." "I have an idea she won't count it a sacrifice." "Probably not. But----- here's the real heart of the matter, Jerry. So-s0 doesn't love me---never has. probably never will, If she did 1 wouldn't be talking to you this way, le the long and short of it is that I don't want to marry her unless she doeg love me. T can see Jerry lighted another cigarette MOFning," Fred said, now that we'd both be miserable, And I can't stand that kind of lite | Are Adopting Themselves to "It seems to me," Jerry said slowly, "that So-s0 is the one to decide for you both, Fred, A man can't exactly tell a girl he's chang- ed his mind about marrying her 88 you've asked 80-50," Fred attempted to laugh, "That's what I need, your advice about, Jerry, how can I get out of it with. out hurting So-s0 too much? It fen't that I don't want her, just as much as I ever did, It's simply that T see clearly now that mar. riage between us wouldn't do." Jerry's hand descended on Fred's shoulder, "I can't belp you, Fred T would it I could.

We're all excit ed now, busy as the devil for the next few days too, let it ride until we get home." Fred shook his head, "No, i worries me, I want to get it over settle it finally one way or other.' "She'll hold 'you to your prom. ise," Jerry phophesied, but his voice carried no conviction, "I hardly--think so" Frec found the words difficult, Jerry was speaking again, J had a code cable from Connie while back, She tells me Claytor hag high hopes of the Harper in vention, Good mews for So-so0-- for all of us for that matter, I'¢ like to have the two of us wor! at developing it when we ge back." No word of Connle's releasins him from the engagement. Goo( old Jerry. He meant to play the game through apparently, and star ing into the roft, southern might Fred felt a weight lift from his heart, He would play the game through as he had begun it, wheth. er Jerry loved So-s0 or not it wat only fair to give So-s0 her freedom The rest was in the hands of the gods.

There is no dolor line in New Zealand and no color feeling. Intermarriage takes place in all classes as an ac- cepted and moral condition, Sir James Barrett, one of Aus- tralia's eminent medical men, says New Zealand's greatest contribu- tion to civilization is the fact that she has shown that half-castes can be just as efficient in ability and character as a pure race and that the result depends on the quality of the mixing races and on the just and proper treatment of the off. spring. "The New Zealand experiment offers some hope to a worldd con- taining some 60 nationalities," be remarks. 'It is early to speak on the final result or to agpsume that the mixture is without fault, but 80 far as can be judged at present New Zealand is absorbing a Poly- neslan civilization and is not de- stroying the native race."

Flight Bowden, Eng,, June 19.--Some time in July, if shed trials satisfy experts of the British air ministry, the new 100 passenger dirigibie R-100 will cast off on its first trial flight. Five million cubic feet of hydro. gen gas will be piped into the great airship's bags when it is completed, The dirigible then, without budg- ing from its immense hangar, will be subjected to tests of its lifting power and equilibrium. Something of the magnitude of this indoor tryout may be imag. ined when it is recalled that the R-100 is about the size of the Mauretania. Several trial flights over England are expected before the ship ate tempts a transAtlantic cruise to Montreal. One of these ear flights will take her to the Royal Airship works at Cardington, 200 miles south of here in Bedfora- shire, where her sister ship, the R- 101, will be given shed tests, Statements made in parliament by 8ir Samuel Hoare, secretary of state for air, have been to the ef- fect that both the R-100 and the R-101 will be flown on long dis. tance cruises this fall--the' R-100 to Canada and the R-10.. to India, Egypt and possibly Australia. Completion of the two ships comes at least a year later than originally expected; but, as points ed out by Sir Samuel, both repre- sent a great step forward in sige, and embody novel principles of design which must be worked out with certainty rather than haste. Each of the dirigibles is approx. {mately 700 feet long, with an es. timated speed of 66 knots and a cruising speed of 53 knots over a Officers elected were: President, W,! have been planted in rice this year. |could not be confirmed, furnaces because it does its work in such a NOISELESS way!
