Robison) "If you're not bluff," aid the office force to me. in the gentle broth erly wiy which office force have of addreiwing society editor, "you'll take nil in that aiiplauc iui write story nixiut it." "Wouldn't it 'be possible to write the story without taking the lidef" I suggested. "I've done it befure with eoticcri.s nitd tilings.' "O well!" agreed the off:ee foree, "if you want to be piker " Which settled it. No one American . 9ini, with "a long line of Scotch and 1 1 i n It forbcara, is going ,0 t-ulled a )iiker. Not if iilie run heli it. ro I wrn,0M'd up my courage in B roll of ropy" &pir along with my pencil and eraser, mi J sallicst forth. At the Ore gon Kleetric depot I tcp.pcd into I teJ-ikonc 'booth. "It's-me," I an nounced intelligently when I reeog nurd the voire at the other end of the wire, "I'm g dug to take a trip wilh Lieutenant ook thi afternoon." "Not in n airplane!" eame the hor rified reply. "Of course!" (I've won dered since, what happened to my tem per that afternoon) "did you upiose I a froinjf (ln imvn mower f lint listen, if they have to dig ie out of the ilobrix and are able to UMemlle my remain, I'd rather be buried in the white niariiiiselte. Ami don't let them curl my hair; It not ibeiug dono this eaon." u the way to Oleott field I con sidered the advimbllity of nrrungiirg for the proper disposal of my person al effects at the office. , There is the In Hi bottle that I iie for tl vnse when ever 1 'ran salvage any flowers; my fountain pen whic h really should be a valuable aouvenir ns it Inn my name engraved on the ilntrrel; nit old copy of "The Outcast 's Prayer'' and a news pnpr print of the late liicufcnnnt t!ol onel Mcs'rno ami a daiiilv large irlmtii ginph of I'optnin Ntufrin, Lieutenant t 'oinptnti, ami a (nil dark officer whose name I could never fiiul out, m board the ship that through! them home.

Koine of the boys were positively childish in their utter iliii'tg;iiil of the censor! At the entrance of the fair ground I found myself in a modernized Latin relet Oobbo position.

And budged." oleott. field lay white and level, Jlkn & silver ipalih in a counterpane of green. Atiove, a rewr tiny clnmt lay on the sapphire flour sif the sky, us tho the girl nugols had dropped their pow der puffs -while frolicking with tho slum the evening before. Lieutenant t ook was milking a limiting- as pretty an, x rare fill a thing an the Inst steps of a good night waltz, and my cour age rebounded. It certainly hnd ticen at the lowent possible elu, and only the thoughts of the cynically inhuman office) foree hud kept jiio from bolting. I'll roufesw right now there' tioth ioil nf 'he hero stuff in my make. up. What-n-or line of work those tlaclie ancestor pursued it is rertnin that none of the-iu were tiht rope walker. If they were, there's nothing at all In the theory of heredity. The faster X K in un itiitoinuliilo, the happier 1 am, and 4 could absolutely live on the wu. ter; but 1 never fail to say a prayer for a linppy death before climbing a ladder to hang a mistletoe wreuth or truighten a window shade. Jt ' just one of the ninny peculiarities, that for lark of unmet hing more tangible on which to jdftre the blame, I lay to the color of my liair. With a kind of lit tle whimper the motor of the plane Mopped and young Mr. McCroskey rsme up to me. "Hitter leave your hat with aonie one," he mid, "aud sign thin" Whetenin 1 igned a fiird that told any one who rami enough to iiLiiwiigaie, uist I, i.ertrinle J'atrieit Kobiaon, Hieing of sound mind, ete., and we were off. We tailed over the field, skimmed for i brief second over the ground, and rose ever so gently into the tuulight. -For a few moments I kept my eye atravght ahead of me, indulging in an Almost pngnu delight in the iudesf-ribable rhvihin of the plane' uiution a it rose in long, an' dulating stride, and then I looked over the side. J-'ar below the land scape lay, a patchwork quilt of tilver and greeu and gold. Gradually my heart lid from the general direction of my knew, up into its normal loca don and never, during the whole f that glorious ride did i exiierieuce the least fear. Inch i saving a great b-al. When anvgne who is so strenuous ly attached to the solid earth ran en jov a trip in the air as much I dul i nut one, tnere can nusviutetv be no cause for fiwj-.

Seeing it from above, it look ed Tlue a little City of Hope, set ten : uorlv in the most beautiful valley m the world, ginled with blue hills uud purple mountain anil watered bv a winding strip tf sheerest rrvdnl. Avi utors must be the greatest hearted persons in the world. looking nt the earth from (ioil own angle they see how really trifling are all the affairs Mint seem of such great moment to lis. ,Thoy get such n ibmnd, kindly view of .things, observing them from the rlouds that when they watch the hurry anil ceaseless bustle around them, while not in the air, :mhI listen to the heated ur giiinents ami rnther unkind things that persons say a mint emh other, they run I think of how uuinipoi tnut ami alio 'jjcthor hildih it looks from above and ask with the author of the I'uisiiit of Huppini -" Little brother, littl sister, whv D hotf" Above the river liieutenuut "ook shut i'1'f the inutor irlni; enoueh to tell .me to notice how elenitv we emild see into the water.

Ev er so gruilunlly we lost the town, while tho silver puich Hint whs Oleott fielu detached itself from the green counter pane and the trip was over. One could wax extremely philosophienl over an airplane ride, Alone with your pilot, high above the world riding face to laiu with the clouds, ami no sound in all creation but the droning whirr of the inuior; far beneath, the river swinging slowly under the arched bridges, while on its banks the town lion as quiet as a city 'built of ilrenms. Iots of pniiible material if one is in rjined to coin thorn! I've always almired IJoveruor Ol eott; he has a real interesting profile, nnd that affair of the bird bath in Ih il statu house grounds appealed to my fancy, Hut 1 never roi!'!i.od how much my eentitnenlH are shared by oth ers until I discovered what nn honor it is to have nn aviutieu field named after you. I do hope that if I ever be come famous, posterity will take that mean of showing its appreciation in stead of attaching my name to five cent cigar or a vegetable compound. The young flight manager was wait ing to unbuckle the strap nnd help me overcome the difficult ie connected with the current styles, which 1 en countered, as I got out of the cork-pit. Hi fatherly altitude wns quite oblit erated bv a broad friemllv imu. "Like it?" he asked. Like itf Mhnde of Heotch and Irish ancestors, what a question! - Hands in my pockets in the appiov ed Dorothy tiish fashion, 1 strolled in-j to the office with nffe'eted noiichnl .auce and sealed myself at my desk.
