Elder had fini bottom of my heart the sympathy you bring from America. I know that my boy is alive. I appeal to you, who have shown vour magnificent courage, | to lend your help to find him.” Has Fun Shopping. Earlier Miss Elder had been truly the “happy dinette,” that the Paris- ians have nicknamed her, but appar- ently with a much fatter pocketbook than any French working girl ever had at her disposal. She outdistanced all followers in her quick flight to the center of Paris fashion. She is said to have placed enough orders to ter rify the average husband. * Meanwhile her co-piiot, George Hal- deman, improved the opportunity to get a few clothes to supplement his own scanty wardrobe. He bought an overcoat, a suit of the latest Paris cut and a good strong pair of shoes. After | his brief shopping expedition he saun- tered along the boulevards to look over the mecca of American airmen. ‘The first official event of her sched- * ule is a luncheon given by the con- structors of the Potez alrplane. in ‘which she flew from Bayonne to Paris. ) S Third Floor—La & Bro.

Although the number of airplane owners who maintain their machines for purely sport and pleasure pur- :u- is small, the number is said to growing. There are certain ob- stacles peculiar to the ownership and operation of aircraft not found in the automobile field, not the least signifi- | cant of which is the necessity of fly- fng from a suitable flying fleld which @ay or may not be conveniently lo- cated for the pilot-owner.
