Monty Wallace has just arrived in
California, having broken the East-
West cross country airplane record.
Natalie, Wade, mistaken by him for a
newspaper reporter, writes the ex
clusive account of Monty’s arrival and
succeeds in securing a trial job with
a paper in exchange for the story.
Natalie becomes attached to Monty.
Although she discovers Monty’s
love for her is ,not sincere, Natalie
admits that she loves him. She is as
signed by her paper to report Monty’s
activities for publication. Jimmy Hale
the newspaper’s photographer, be
comes Natalie’s co-worker.
Natalie interviews Jake Marion, a
wealthy airplane builder, who decides
to build a record-breaking ’round the
world plane for Monty. Marion’s
daughter, Sunny, exquisitely beauti
ful, is attracted to Monty. She invites
Natalie to dine with her, when they
meet the aviator unexpectedly.
Natalie discovers that Sunny is
jealous of her friendship with Monty,
and that she is trying to prevent them
from being alone. After driving to a
mountain resort with Sunny and Jim
my, Monty again declares his loves,
for Natalie.
Sunny attempts to drive Natalie
from Monty's attention by climbing
a high wall. She almost loses her
.balance and is pulled back by Monty.
Jimmy later asks Natalie to consider
his love for her if she refuses Monty.
Natalie induces Monty to set out
with her in an airplane search for two
missing aviators. At dusk Monty
lands the plane in the open country,
where he and Natalie must spend the
night. Resuming the search, in the
morning, they finally locate the fliers.
Natalie wires the story to her paper.
That night, at dinner, Marion an
nounces a non-stop, ’round the world
flight, with Monty piloting the new
plane, "Sunny Marion.” Monty’s
plan is to have 'ten refuelling sta
tions along the route, where pilots are
to go aloft to refuel his plane. Monty
flies with Natalie to New York, where
he will begin the flight eastward.
They are followed by Jimmy and
Sunny.

"Go on,” prompted Monty, seating
himself opposite the girl.
Sunny seemed loathe to tell all. Her
mind raced as her actions played for
time. With true feminine instinct she
decided on one last gamble. She must
preserve her secret at all cost. In
stantly her manner changed. The old
seriousness gave way to something
softer. Her next words held a world
of meaning,
"Don’t you think you care for me
—a little, even after all that’s hap
pened?”
Monty was caught off guard.
"Why—why, yes—why not?”

was fencing. He made no move,
“Isn’t this rather a face-about
us both?" he questioned.
"A woman’s privilege” returned
Sunny, lightly.
“But hardly a man’s” came Monty’s
swift reply,
“You’re going through with it —
even if you care for me more?”
Sunny betrayed her own vanity and
she knew it. She sought to cover it
by forcing an affirmation.
"You admit you still care for me!”
Sunny leaned toward Monty seated

“But she’ll tell about me!” Sunny shrieked.
Sunny followed up her advantage’ before her. His eyes met
without hesitation.
"You know, Mont, I really let you
out of that engagement because I felt
generous—I mean about Natalie.”
Sunny’s strategy was well mapped by
now. She continued: ■ '
“But somehow I’m wishing now I
had never been such a fool!”
The note of flattery was not lost
on Monty. Ever mindful of a certain
masculine charm that could not be
denied even by his enemies, Monty
knew that many women had been at
tracted to him. Sunny’s approach was
a masterful stroke of psychology. She
knew his Achilles’ heel—and now she
aimed directly for it.
"Mont!” Her exclamation came as
she slowly rose to her feet.
‘"Why couldn’t we start all over
again?” she was crossing to him now.
She was before him. She knew that
when Monty reached out his hand her

“If you care for me, why don’t you
show it?” Sunny demanded.
"What would you want me to do?”
Sunny was baffled, but not for long.
She wo-uld force Monty to her will
but it would be harder than she ex
pected. She seated herself on the arm
of Monty’s chair.
"Mont,” she said, "I didn’t really
realize until this moment how much
I’ve wanted you. I can’t give you up
so easily—I don’t care if I did pro
mise!”
Monty was caught off guard. It
would be hard to cast the girl aside
and in all his being he couldn’ft find
the will to do it even though his mind
might so direct.

his hair. She was close to him now.
Something inside told her that she’d
have her way. Her hand rested on
his and then closing fingers gave her
the answer she had wanted-
The jangle of a telephone broke
their moment, of silence. Sunny gave
a start. The jangle continued and she
rose to pick up the receiver.,
"Hello?—Nat?—where are you?”
Sunny listened, then covered the
mouthpiece as she whispered, “It’s for
you', Mont, Natalie, Do you want to
talk to her?”
"Of course!” said Monty, taking
the instrument from her hand,
"Hello,1 Nat! What’s that?—you’re
at the office?-—and just found out I
was loose? When "are you coming
here—we have a date with the Mayor
-—you know. I’ll be waiting! I’m run
ning over to my place to get a change
of clothes, I’ve worn these all the
way from Siberia and .they’re getting
out of press. Okay, see you soon!”
The phone in place, Monty sprang
into action. There was no time to
lose, Barely an hour would elapse be
fore they would be riding in the May
or’s limousine to the testimonial par
ty in his honor. The flight, the land
ing, the tussle at the airport — all
seemed like a thousand years ago.
Much had happened in the few hours
since. Monty threw on his coat and
was about to go when Sunny ran to
him and threw her arms about him.
“Don’t go,” she pleaded, “that
man will be there—she will use
occasion to expose you!”
"What makes you think she
anything to expose?” parried Monty.
“I know—I know it’s all some ter
’rible plot",” cried Sunny, "but don’t
you see — she’ll take advantage to
force ypu to pay her off! This would
’be playing right into her hands!”
"You don’t think she’d try to make
a public scene before I had a chance
to pay off quietly, do you?” Monty
reasoned.
“You don’t understand — she’ll be
there, if only to be able to threaten
you!”
Monty thought little of Sunny’s ar
gument. He turned again to go. Sun
ny ‘fastened herself on his arm, at
tempting to drag him back. Her in
sistence made Monty wonder.
. ’"Why shouldn’t I let her make a
scene?” he exclaimed. “She won’t get
anywhere. I could ’have her thrown
.in jail in five minutes because I know
she hasn’t any proof—phoney or oth
erwise—of what she’s trying to sayj”
"But she’ll tell about me!” Sunny
shrieked. And in that' instant she
knew ’her secret was out.
Monty stared at her for a moment,
then asked:
“Tell about — about what?” he de
manded.
r"Oh, I might as well tell you now
—it’s too late to cover anything up!”
Sunny was sobbing. Monty led her
back to a chair. There, seated toge
ther, he held her tightly as she sought
to speak. Finding her voice, she con
tinued:
"I know this girl—and she’s a fake.
She never married you and she said
as much to me right here this after
noon. But she does know me. .She
was in a gambling house in New York
when I went slumming with a party
of friends. We were hardly in the
place when it was raided. She always
held it over me. She knew I’d give
anything to.keep father from know
ing. Now she wanted me to get you
to pay her some money to hush up a
scandal. If I didn’t, she threatened
to tell father and get all three of us
mixed up in a dreadful mess!”
It was probably the most straight
forward speech Sunny had ever made
in her life. The simple; direct man
ner of her confession brought Monty
quickly to her aid. ,
"You poor kid!” were Monty’s
words as he sought to comfort her.
“Why didn’t you tell me all this
in the first place instead of beating
around, the bush with all this 'I Love
You Truly* ’stuff!”
■ “I’m — sorry,” was all Sunny could
say. Monty knew she was.
Absorbed by their own situation,
neither Monty nor Sunny had heard
the door buzzer, nor its opening and
closing. They became conscious of
another’s presence only when Natalie
walked to the centre of the room.
Mont’s arms still held the girl in close
embrace. They both looked up into
Natalie’s surprised and horror-strick
en countenance.
“Mohtf—Sunny!” was all Natalie
could say. Her eyes welled with
tears. ,Monty lifted Sunny to her feet

“Nat!” Monty called, "You mustn’t

But Natalie had groped her way
out to the front entrance. She open

Jimmy who had just returned from a
picture assignment far uptown.
“Why Natalie?” Jimmie exclaimed,
“What’s the niatlef-—why the weep?”
“It’s—they*s*-In there,” Natalie
sobbed, and pushing Jimmy to one

at Monty and Sunny and the awful

fists tightened in anger but the very
thought that Natalie had been hurt
and was even now fleeing,, he knew
not where, prompted him .to waste no
time.
“You cad!—and you—you said you
loved me!” he hissed. He looked at
them both, then strode from, the
room. Monty and Sunny were again
alone, slightly bewildered for they
had both been dumfounded at the un
toward turn of events.
Monty found himself first. Catch
ing Sunny’s hand he urged her for
ward.
“We must find them and tell them
the truth!”
“Why bother?” she sobbed, "they’d
never believe us, ever!”
"But they must!” Monty insisted.,
"They simply must!”
Sunny turned her face, eyes brim

"I .guess we’ll have to take each

her hand, then passed -his arm around

"Come on, little girl,” he shouted,
gaily, "we’re going places and do
things. We’re going to the Mayor’s
own party-—and you’ll be the queen
bee of the evening!” ,
Sunny ’ looked at Monty incredu

ears. Then slowly the realization
came that Monty had made the all-
important decision. Happiness seem-

When the fire bell rang last week
at the early, hour of 2.30, o’clock in
the morning, one Kincardine house
wife mistook its persistent ringing
for that of the alarm clock at her bed
side and arose to begin the day. Af
ter dressing she went downstairs and
prepared breakfast, only to discover
that the fire bell was four hours a-
head of the alarm clock and that the
effort she had already expended was
wasted.—Kincardine News.
