I concluded to hold on to the missiles and trust to the speed of my aeroplane. My decision was an unlucky one. The auto had only four miles to go to reach an aero plane station and made the distance over a straight road In about six min utes. “Suddenly I saw a dozen aeroplanes rise like a flock of birds not far off my course and make for a point between me and the works I was to destroy.

The writer •aja: “Instead of the Saturday night hath —In warm west her—Nancy learned to take a cold bath every morning and a hot one every night.' A wicked waste of water from her point of view, but wasted In a good cauae. Twice a day she exercised for 20 minutes, until every muscle In her body protested painfully. Clad only In a loose 'Moth er Hubbard’ Nancy twisted and turned, bent forward and backward, endeavor ing to touch the floor with her Anger tips, stood storklike, first on one foot and then on the other, its mate mak ing wild plunges through the air in an endeavor to keep her bulky frame In an upright position. She stretched her arms Imploringly heavenward, protest- ingly toward the other place; she kicked, she hopped, she rolled, she per spired gallons; and she did It all un complainingly and with an expression of dogged determination that helped to stimulate my own often waning en thusiasm. No Christian martyr that ever lived, or died, was more entitled to the desired reward than Nancy. Gladly would she have burned at the stake. If by so doing the could have ac complished her purpose."
