Sh© stopped for nothing when sh© faced her typewriter in that quiet room. She thrust paper and carbons into the machine and banged at the keys. Her story must go. Her heart might break. Her lover might crash to a thousand deaths on sea or land from the vast height at which h© flew, but these bits of paper must be lashed by the keys that her fingers drove. They must be whipped out one by on© till the telegraph boy rushed away with them, till the pencils slashed, till-4he linotypes crashed, till the presses grumbled and roared, till the whole world knew that Mont Wallace was on his way. The story ended at last. “To be continued,” she wrote for a last paragraph. ”To b© con tinued is the story Mont Wallace writes in clouds and sea today. To be continued is the epic of the Twentieth Century’s fourth de cade as one tousled-headed youth rides high to new fame or to death. She did not break when the story ended. She did not stop till the last page had been thrust Into the hands of the waiting boy and hurried on ita way. Ther© were two pilots on the plane going home. Natalie could have screamed when she saw them, for they re minded her again that Mont Wlal- Ince was alone as h© fought his way across the Atlantic. It was all she could do to bring herself to enter the roomy tri- motor that afternoon when she knew that it would still be hours before any possible report could come from the lone flier. She wanted to cling to the window of some telegraph office, or better still, to sit at the elbow of one of the radio operators in the world-flight chain.
