Bangor; Me.?When Colin Wentzel of Mahone Bay, N. S., sailed last fall in the schooner Alfaretta for the West Indies he intended to return in about three months and marry Miss Gladys Keddy. He never saw home again, for witim four days' sail of Mahone Bay on the return passage he was washed overboard and drowned. It appears, however, that while at Bridgetown, Barbados, Wentzel wrote Miss Keddy a letter dated November 28, which she received late in December, and that he wrote something in i one corner of the envelope in such' small space that the writing was completely covered by two postage stamps. Miss Keddy was not aware of the writing under the stamps until, on the Ignt of January 21, i she read her fiancee's last letter for the third time. Then she noticed on the inside in the corner traces of writing. The letters were made out to be 'Tern stp," which relatives interpreted to mean "remove stamp." Upon removal of the stamps, by steaming over ^e tea kettle, there was disclosed ^tat the Nova Scotia supreme court has decided is the last will and testament of Colin Wentzel, leaving to Miss Keddy $2,500 and his share in the schooner L. M. Corkum. The estate amounted in all to $3,382. j NO AGE LIMIT ON AVIATORS ; Peace Time Flyers in England Need Only Gocd Eyes and Sound Hearts. London, Eng.?The fact that only i young men capable of passing severe j physical tests were accepted for avia- j tion work during the war has caused 1 the belief that flying as a sport will be ! barred to persons past the prime of : youth. That is a mistake, according to British experts, who say that lor ordinary peace time flying there should be no age limit. The only qualifications they set are good eyesight and a sound j heart. Flying an airplane, it is pointed out. is much simpler, and far less nerve racking than driving an automoi .'a or j sailing a yacht. Any man wh<. 'ias lived a decent open air life, espec.. dy if he has played games and hunu\ ! will find that learning to fly, even the age of 50, is quite an easy business experts say. A modern airplane will virtually fly itself, and the controls j are so arranged that a man, even on hi? trin it is argued, does the ri|: .a.stinctively. !
