and Jerry had agreed that a good
night’s sleep was best for Julie.
She began to think of what might
happen when they landed. Perhaps
this night there would be gaia
parties. Her spirit yearned toward
them but her flesh protested in every
joint.
She gave the altimeter a casual
glance, saw that they were flying
lower. A hiere ten thousand feet.
Then it was eight thousand and they
leveled off.
Her watch registered a quarter to
eight.
Kincaid’s telephone clicked:
“We’ll be down in twenty min-
utes! Burbank! Nice going, young-
ster! I’ve radioed the field.”
The connection was shut off.
Julie blew out her breath and
gathered a second speed. Her numb
fingers found the make-up kit in her
pocket. She rubbed her arms, manip- :
ulated her fingers and went to
work busily with a dab of cotton
and her cold cream. Her eyes looked
tired but excitement, now that her
moment was near, sent sparkle |
from their depths. She powdered I
her nose and touched a lipstick to
her mouth.

The Lesson-Sermon also in-
cludes the following passage from ;
the Christian Science textbook,
“Science and Health with Key to
the Scriptures,” by Mary Baker
Eddy: “God is individual, incor-
poreal. He is divine Principle,
Love, the universal cause, the, !
only creator, and there is no j:
other self-existence. He is all- !
incluseive, and is reflected by all
that is real and eternal and by ,;
nothing else. He fills all space,
and it is impossible to conceive 1
of such omni-presence and indi-
viduality except as infinite Spirit
or Mind. Hence all is Spirit and
spiritual.”

Her guest rooms, like the one in

wear pink gingham in the morning
and maroon taffeta in the afternoon.

that plane out of the skies in record
breaking time.
The skies were changing. It was
almost seven by her watch and in-
stead of getting darker the sky was
getting brighter with mid-afternoon
light.

Her silk shirt clung to her cul-

ing unsteadily made her eyes burn.
She closed her eyes— '
Kincaid’s voice wakened her:
“We’re over Cleveland!”
She felt pleased, as though she
had done it. Thqn she looked at her
watch and saw that it was less than
two hours since they had taken off
from Brooklyn. Her legs were
asleep, her toes tortured in the
boots. Her whole figure was cramped
and there was nothing that she
could do about it. Also, she was
hungry. She decided not to open her
sandwiches. There was no telling
how long they would be in the air.
Besides, she’d save them for later to
break the monotony.
The next hour was not monoto-
nous. It was climaxed by fear. They
ran into thunder storms, rode above
them while lightning flashed about
them, penetrating her tightly shut
eyes. She tried desperately to re-
member if planes had lightning
rods and if there could be a light-
ning rod to stave off that terrible,
darting fire.
Then they were through them and
white clouds floated beneath them
in the blue expanse where they were
two tiny mites in a beetle travelling
madly through space. Her tension
relaxed and she drank a little of her
coffee.
She read another short story,
tried to read a second one and found
that she couldn’t concentrate on it.
The altitude indicator was fixed at
13,000 feet. She wondered how long
it would take to fall thirteen thou-
sand feet, wondered how high the
mountains were.
She called on all the resources of
her brain to recall geography, his-
tory she had learned in school. That
occupation didn’t take long and she
was soon bored. Time had stood still.
The earth was far below them. Per-
haps there wasn’t any njore earth.
In Fayette, Cosy would be wash-
ing the lunch dishes. Althea was
probably breaking her neck to get
to the bridge at the Holt’s. They
were all having a lovely time and
not giving a single thought to her.
She felt very lonely.
At two o’clock she opened her
sandwiches and munched on one
trying to make the process last as
as possi l°nP “s possible. She wished Kin-
