WRITTEN FOR AND RELEASED BY CENTRAL PRRSS ASSOCIATION^ SYNOPSIS Three young airline hostesses, ■ TIBBY LANE, sweet and natural; STEENA WINTERS, beautiful and sophisticated, md MARG BAKER, plain, sturdy and direct, share an apartment to gether in New York, where they are based. A friend of Tibby’s, TOMMY DARE, is spending h i s first year out of medical school at a clinic in Brooklyn. Steena sets her cap for WAYNE COUKTRIGHT, wealthy official of the airline. * * * YESTERDAY; Steena suddenly brings up the subject of the fly ing lessons Tibby is taking from Wayne Courtright. CHAPTER THIRTEEN “Is it true,” Steena asked Tibby, somewhat abruptly over the breakfast table a few days later, “that you are taking flying les sons from Wayne Courtright?” The question came so unexpect edly that Tibby set down her cof fee cup with a little guilty clatter. At least she was afraid it held a guilty sound. She said, “Yes, it’s true,” frowning at Marg, who had cast her a signficant I-told-you-so look, in the hope that she would not say anything that might make matters worse. “It’s odd.’’ Steena said coolly, “that you did not think to men tion it. To me, I mean.” Her green eyes were cool, too, although she still looked sleepy. She had had a date with Courtright the night be fore; he had kept her out long past the midnight hour in spite of J the fact that Steena had said it was not good policy to allow a j man to keep a girl out, or to call, that late. “Does Tibby haye to tell you everything?” Marg inquired, ig noring the look she had received. "It wasn’t a question of telling,” Tibby put in hastily. “I just hadn’t thought to mention it.” That was not strictly true; it was deceit in a mild form. As a matter of fact, had she thought to mention it. this was almost the first opportunity that would have presented itself, as it was the first time in over a week that the three girls had been home together. Tibby wondered if Courtright had told Steena about the flying lessons. But that would mean that he knew that they lived together, which was not very probable. Steena answered this unspoken question. “It’s odd, too,” she said, “that Wayne didn’t mention it last night. I recall, distinctly, telling him the names of the girls I share my apartment with—and he never said a wrord. You would think he would have said he knew you. Per sonally, I mean.” “You could hardly call it per sonally,” Tibby said. But the soft color crept into her face. She had had two lessons since that first one. The second had gone very much like the preceding one. But after the third, when Tibby had finally achieved one perfect land ing out of many trys. Courtright had insisted they celebrate by hav ing something in the cocktail lounge. Tibby had wanted to re fuse, but had not liked to. Over a soft drink—and whiskey and soda for her escort—they had, perhaps, got a bit personal. At least they had been quite gay, dropping the teacher-pupil role, or the employ er and employe. “Mr. Courtright simply offered to teach me how to fly.” Tibby said. Marg had been right; it was quite evident that Steena did not like it. She considered she had captured Wayne Courtright first; Tibby had no right to “horn in,” as Marg might have expressed it. “That's all there is to it,” Tibby added. "In a way, it’s really your own fault, Steena my love.” Marg sim ply could not keep out of this; it amused and tickled her too much. She had known Steena would be w'ild. Wouldn’t it be a joke if Tib by took the beautiful Steena’s man away from her, especially when that man was such a prize? “If you hadn’t helped yourself to Tib by’s uniform that day Tibby would not have had to go to Mr. Court right’s office. He would not, then, have been struck by her forthright methods—she did not tell on you, you know—and charm. Result, she would not now be taking lessons— with the opportunity, were she that kind of gal, to help herself to your boy friend. That WOULD be a sort of retributive justice, now wouldn’t it?” Marg chuckled. Tibby threw her another be seeching look. “Don’t be silly,” she said. “Mr. Courtright is not the least interested in me. He is merely being extremely kind, since he knows how I feel about flying.” Yet he had told her—during the very first lesson—that she was pretty. During the second he had praised her warmly, adding that he admired her nerve. Over the drinks, after the third, he had said he hoped that now she considered him a friend. He had said, “It would please me very much in deed if you would consider me your friend.” Naturally there had been nothing for Tibby to say ex cept that she would. Surely there could be no objection to a mild friendship. It need not go beyond that. “I suppose you found it neces-j sary to tell him how you felt about flying.” Steena set down her cup with a sharp click. ‘‘Not a bad line at that, Tibby. Sorry I didn’t think it up myself. As far as Wayne's being kind to you, that’s perfectly all right wtih me. But retributive justice sometimes throws a boomerang. I trust you’ll keep that in mind, my dear.” She said this last with a smile, but there was no mistaking how much she meant its implied threat. Tibby had better keep out of the picture; Wayne Courtright was her property. At least she in tended he should be and she did not intend to put up with any in terference. It was going to be dif ficult enough going as it was. But last night Wayne had kissed Steena. That ought to mean some thing. Heaven knows she had worked hard and long enough lead ing up to it. It had been a light little kiss, at parting, but it should be a beginning. Of course Steena was not fooling herself. She knew that a man like Wayne had kissed many girls — without its meaning anything. But with her she meant that it should. One kiss would lead to another, which should lead to the end Steena was working toward, the reason she had decided to be an air hostess, that wealthy husband she meant to land. The average stay of a hostess was two years until she married: this was an accepted fact on most of the big airlines; one even pre sented any girls who stayed long er with a pin as a sort of badge or reward; Steena hoped it would not take two years to get a pro posal of marriage from Wayne Courtright, although it would be DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS 1.

Distributed by King Features Syndicate. Inc ^ worth it. Her dream now was not just for any man of wealth and other attributes, who might do for a prospective husband. It centered on Wayne alone. He was the one. the only one now. No other would do. Steena did not ask herself if this j was because she loved him. That j could come later. It would not be! difficult to fall in love with Wayne. He was not only the most affluent man she ever had met, but the most attractive, by far. She knew she was not the only woman who had discovered this. There must have been plenty before her, but none more beautiful, as she knew, though without conceit—for Steena realized her beauty was her hief asset; none more determined or clever. She had been annoyed when the chief hostess—Miss Picklepuss to Marg and Tibby—had told her that Wayne was teaching Miss Lane to fly. The chief hostess and Steena were friendly, not only because thex-e never was any fault to find with Steena’s personal appearance and neatness, but because Steena had made it her business to see that they were. She had felt that such a friendship would prove use- '< ful. And Steena seldom overlook ed any advantage. However, now, she told herself, she was confident there was nothing to be annoyed about. Tibby was not clever or j beautiful. She was a nice little thing, all wrapped up in her en thusiasm over flying. And she had a boy friend—that handsome young doctor. No doubt she would become engaged to him, since they were childhood sweethearts. But Tibby had better remember what Steena had said. She had better not try any tricks—where Wayne was concerned. She had better see to it that there remain ed between them only the most impersonal relationship. Or Steena j would see that she should be sorry she had not. That young doctor was indeed handsome, so hand some he had taken. Steena’s breath —and quickened her pulse. It would not be difficult at all to play up to him, to take him away from Tibby, even, should it suit her purpose, although she hoped, since Steena really was not spiteful — only determined—that such meas ures as that would not prove necessary. 4 (To Be Continued) T 7 City Employees To Get Pay Deduction For Bond Approximately 15 per cent of the city's 500 employes have volunter ed to have a portion of their sal aries deducted for the purpose of defense bonds under the payroll de duction play, City Manager James G. Wallace said Friday morning. More than half the membership of some departments have already subscribed he said. Under the plan, each employe au thorizes City Clerk James R. Ben s'n to deduct a fixed amount from his paycheck each payday. When enough money has been accumulat ed to buy a bond, the bond is pur chased by Mr. Benson and turned over to the employe. The plan has been available to the employes for about two weeks, the city manager said. GASOLINE ALLEY The Home Fire OUT OUR WAY_By J. B. Williairis OUR BOARDING HOUSE . . . with . . .
