DARING WOMAN IS HILLED BY PLANE Looked Upon as Possible Ocean Flier Youngstown, Ohio, Aug. 16 (P — Death again has closed the career of another one of the most prom- inent alrplane pilots, this time it being a woman, Mrs. Gladys Roy, noted as an airplane stunt actress. She died here last night from injur- fes received when unknowingly she walked into the path of a fast spin- ning propeller, the blade tearing away her skull. The aviatrix death also eliminat- ed another potential transatlantic flier as she had been groomed re- cently for a flight from New York | to Rome with Lieut. Délmar E. Snyder as co-pilot. Mrs. Roy, wife of Arthur Roy, of Los Angeles, was only 25 years old but was nationally known as a flier. She also had established an enviable record as a parachute jumper and had records for women for leaps of from 200 feet to 16,000 feet. She was known, too, as a flying movie stunt actress. The young flier was injured at ‘Watson Field here while heing film- ed with Miss Evelyn Wilgus, Rus- sells Point, who had won the title | of “Miss Ohio” and is to participate in the Atlantic City bathing beauty contest. Mrs. Roy and “Miss Ohi6” were at the flying field for filming of a picture “The Queen of Ohio meets the Queen of the Air.”” The pleture had practically been com- pleted when the aviatrix climbed down the fuselage of the plane and walked unconsciously into whirl- ing propeller. Death occurred a few hours later at a hospital. She had spent most of the past six weeks in Ohlo giving stunt exhi- bitions while awaiting the start of her transatlantic flight. Her home was in Minneapolis. WATERBURY MAN I3 JAILED AND FINED —_— Royal Famigleitti is Charged With Reckless Driving and Leaving Scene of Accident.

Iam tired of pursuing fanciful courses of study that lead me nowhere. I aspire to be of value to some man of accomplishments in the business world. Quite a number of my girl friends have been to the Morse College and taken their secretarial training and SECRETARY I. want to do something, be somebody and get somewhere in life. The occupation of a secre- tary is neat, cultural and gooa-paying. It will make me independent. At the same time as I am earning a good salary, I will be gaining promotion to a situation of responsibility and higher re- are today holding excellent positions. Dad, we girls look up to them. We respect them. Yes, we almost envy them their success. Won’t you give me the same opportunity? "I know I would enjoy such a course because it is inter- esting secretarial office routine, together with stenography, touch typewriting, correspondence and the practice of the many duties that a private secretary is called upon to do. It only costs $4.36 for a month’s ticket to Hartford. That’s about eight cents per ride on a school ticket, which Morse College furnishes. * It is much better to spend this eight cents per day to go to a superior school that has a good reputation to get a girl through to success. \ The Morse College has been in Hartford for sixty-six years. It is a wonderful organization. Some of the best business men and women of New Britain are its graduates. It has a fine equip- ment and it is dependable. Why, Mr. Morse himself has been there 36 years and he has trained and placed a multitude of young ladies no better than I am. I stopped in there today and talked with Mr. Morse and he gave me this catalog. Dad, the tuition is only $20 per month and the term begins Thursday, September first. Mother is willing, are you?
