Lindbergh has received many presents in a loaded year, among them promotion from cap- tain to colonel and a trunkful of medals, but a “gift of gab” was not among them. He was a man of few words when he flew away to Paris a a man of even fewer words, if such a thing be possible. When “Slim” Lindbergh of the ir mail dropped out of the sky at Curtiss Field on May 12, 1927, two days out of San Diego with a stop at St. Louis, he was surrounded by score of reporters as soon as he stepped from the “Spirit of St. TLouis” then known to fame only as the craft that had brought its pilot across the continent in rec. ord breaking time and to New York seven hours before he was ex- pected. . The reporters Lindbergh and a 100 questions. He answered most of them, using not more than 500 words for the lot.

He's off the ground.” A last word from the commander revealed him as second count. He was asked what his own plans were for flying to Paris in the big America. None until Lindbergh gets there,” e answered. “The air now belongs to Lindbergh. One year later the air still be- fongs to Lindbergh.

Next is his 1,200-mile nonstop hop from Ha- vana to 8t. Louis at the conclusion of his goodwill tour. These flights account for 34,9 miles.

All these flights have been made without any pretense by the young aviator to a knowledge of naviga- tion, but the colonel is now master- ing, under the tutelage of a maval instructor, that science of the air.
