The Hindenâ€" burg completed her 20 crossings, always arriving on the day set forth months before, and always leaving on the s,he-i duled day. Air force men and aviators of one kind and another used to be divided into two groups: the lighterâ€"thanâ€"air craft pushers, and the heavierâ€"thanâ€" air craft converts. Then a series of disasters sent the British Râ€"101, the United States Shenendoah and Akron hurtling to earth and sea with precious loads of men. Those who favoured lighterâ€"thanâ€"air craft in United States, Great Britain and France were few in number after those terrible accidents. But the Germans continued building dirigibles like the Graf Zepplin, the great ship that shuttled back and forth across tae South Atlantic ocean so sutâ€" cessfully.

Shortly after noon a five course lunchean which would have done credit to the best hotel was served with appropriate wines which showed never a tremor in their glasses as the ship sped along at seventy knots.

One spotter has been bumped off. There are two more to follow. A word to the wise should be sufficient. O.TA." The note was printed on plain white paper and was regarded as a valuable clus in the mystery surrounding the murder of the inspectcr. It was felt at the time that the inspector had been killed because he was discharging his duty too well for the comfort of certain "bootleg kings" in the district town. A young man who was sentenced to two years less one day in reformatory for having passed a worthless cheque in Toronto, had a criminal record that dated from i1813 and took in towns all over the Dominion.

The monastery was founded fiftyâ€"five years ago by a small band of Trappist morks who came out from France. The order was originally established in 1098. At Oka the monks rise at two in the morning for service in the chapel, they work in the fields or on their model farm all day, they eat frugally, foregoing all meat, they reâ€" tire early and sleep fully clothed on hard straw mattresses.
