The bov with the message was go- ing rapidly across the flald. Kennedy was impatiently watching him. It wae too far off to see just what they were doing. but as Norton seemed to get down out of his seat in the aeroplane | when the boy arrived. and it was wheeled back i the shed. | gath- ered that he was detaching the g¥ro- mcope and was going to make the flight without it. as Kennedy had re- quested. 3 In a few minutes it was again wheeled out. The crowd. which had been waiting especially to see Nor- ton. applauded. “Come. Walter.” exciaimed Ken- nedy, “let's go up there on the roof of the stand where we can see bet- ter. There's 2 platform and railing. 1 see.’ Mis pass allowed him to go any- \here on the fleld. so in a few min- Spites we were up on the roof. 9 It was a fascinating vantage point. ‘and T was 30 deeply engrossed be- tween watching the crowd below. the birdmen in the air and the machines walting across the fleld that I totaily lected to notice what Kennedy was doing. When I did, T saw that he had deliberately turned his back on the aviation field. and was anxiously ecanning the country back of us. “What are vou looking fo msked. “Turn around. I think Norton is just about to fiv."" “Watch him. then " answered Cralg. *Tell me when he gets in the air.” Just then Norton's aeroplane rose gently from the field. A wild shout of applauase came from the people below us at the heroism of the man who dared to fly this \new and ap- parenily fated machine. It was suc ceeded by a breathless, deathly caim. as if after the first burst of en- thugiasmm the crowd had suddenly reallzed the danger of the intrepid aviator. Would Norton add a third to the fatalities of the meet? Suddenly Kennedy jerked my ~Walter. look over there acr road back of us—at the old weath beaten barn. | mean the one next to that vellow house.

Kennedy was anxiously watching | the judges with one eye and Norton with the other.

He'll make it. after al omehow Norton had regained par- i tial control of his machine. but it was still swooping down i & tra. i mendous pace toward the level ceme ter of the field There was a crash as it struck the a cloud of dust. With « leap Kennedy had cleared the fence and was running toward Norton. Two men from the judge's !stand were ahead of us. but. except {for them, we were the first to reach kim.

Kennedy pulled my arm. “Look at | the gyroscope dynamo,” he whis- pered. T looked. Like the other two which we had seen it also was 2 | wreck. ~The insulation was burned off the wires. the wires were fused 1 together. and the storage-battery 1looked as if it had been burned out. i i A flicker of the eyelid and Norton seemed to regain some degree of con- sciousness.

But Kennedv was now sure that Norton was safe and in good hands and he hurried back in the direction of the grandstand. T followed. Fly- ing was over for that day and the people were filing slowly out toward the railroad station, where the spe- cial trains were waiting. We stop- ped at the wireless atation for aj moment. “Is It cover? | inquired the operator. “Yes. He was only stunned, thank heaven!

If Williams was only sn the air now I'd give von a good demonstration of communicating with an aeroplane,” continued the operator as he pre- parei to leave. Kennedy thanked him for the rec- ord and carefully folded it. Join- ing crowd, we pushed our way out, but instead of going down to the station with them. Kennedy turned toward the barn and the vei- iow house. For some tima we waited about casually, but nothing ocourred. At length Kennedy walked up to the shed. The door was closed and dou- ble padlocked. He knocked, but there was no an# Just then a man appearsd on the porch of the yellow house. Seeing us. he beckoned.

As he walked sway I remsrked, “How do you know Norten will fly again?” “I don't,” answered Kennedy, "but I think that either he or mlrng‘r-u will. I wanted to see that this Lamar beliaves it anyhow.
