She maintains that it is merely a vaca tion trip, and she took that kind of trip because .that is the kind of trip she likes. Another acid test of the young lady's character was the Isarcastic editorial printed in the London Evening Standard, jwhich said: "She is tho first woman to travel from the lAmericnii conl incut to Europe by air. As such, she is ie jmarkable, but the first sheep to do tho same thing would be jhardly less remarkable. Miss Earhart knew tho risk she (was taking, whereas a sheep would not. The rest is merely a question of weight, and tho contribution of both to the science lof aviation would be precisely the same." When reporters showed this apologetically lo Miss Ear inrt, she read it through without batting an eye, then broke out into a peal of amused laughter, saying: "Well, what do 'you want mo to say? It's tine, isn't it?"
