Tom and Judith are in love, but have 'quarreled. Aboard an airliner Judith sees two men watching Torn suspiciously. At a stop for supper she tells hint to watch out for them. As they are about to take off again, Judith hears the hostess say they are changing co- pilots. SKYWAY HOLDUP CHAPTER III Judith noticed most of the pas- sengers were nodding in sleep ex- cept Tom, the foreigner and the large man in front of her. Every- thing was peaceful, with nothing to substantiate her fears. The hostess walked through, stopped at each seat to make sure her charges were comfortable and theii returned to her place. Judith righed and closed her eyes. Lean- ing back against the seat, she re- laxed for the first time since they changed co-pilots. Then suddenly the plane rocked and her spine grew rigid with fright. Everybody on the ship came awake instantly. Someone screamed. The hostess came run- ning through''"""the aisle. • "Fasten your safety belts, please," she urged, her voice calm. She hurried to the front of the plane, but when she tried to turn the handle of the control room door it was locked. She turned to face the frightened passengers, but just as she opened her mouth to speak, the plane leveled into •-•smooth flying again. However, Judith, a seasoned alt traveler, sensed the ship was headed downward. By the look on the girl's face, she realized the hostess guessed the same thing. Then a man exclaimed: "Why, we're landing." "I belieye so;"' smiled the girl in the unifor, trying to ease the tension. "Please be calm. I am Nitre everything is !till right. Forced landings are not uncom- neon." tbotarbip— Value $750.00, and cash awards for original musical composi• tions.

The foreigner, too, was waiting expectantly. She shifted her gaze quickly to the man in front of her, and as she •did so, he stood up. Her heart rose in her throat. "Yoa heard the Iady," he roared gruffly: "Take it easy. Just a forced landing." He backed toward the control room, ignoring -the pleas of the hostess to return to his seat. When he stood with his back against the closed door, he drew a gun. There were gasps of terror. A woman screamed and wilted in her seat but.no one nada a move to help her. Judith sat very still and waited. "Nobody will get hurt if you do as you're told," the large man said. His eyes scanned the cabin for any signs of rebellion. As the plane wheels hit the earth, Judith opened her purse and her cold fingers closed about the little gun she always carried when she traveled. Until now she had never used it. The big liner rolled to a bumpy stop and the door to the control room opened. The co-pilot stepped out. His eyes darted over the people. "Good work, Heavy," he said to the man with the gun. He strode down the aisle and disappeared through the door. Judith's eyes were fastened on the fordigner. He was the one she feared most, but. so far he had made no move. He sat very straight in his seat, his eyes fixed on Toni. An electrified excite- ment that she had never felt bee fore enveloped Judith. She saw a light flare from the outside at a distance and draw nearer. While she watched it ap- proach, she wondered how she could get off the plane and follow if the men only took Toni with them. The hostess started to move but the gunman's voice stopped her. "Get back there to my seat and sit down." She complied without a murmur. A plan sitting up front whined irritably. Judith drew on her courage and said. brightly, "This is very ex- citing." • Heavy, the man behind the gun, grinned at her while the passen- gers turned and glared. When Tom Burke looked at her, there • was a light of understanding in his glance. The co-pilot put his head in at the dolor. "All right, Karl." Instantly,. the foreigner came alive and stood up, an ugly gun in his hand covering Burke from the back. "Come along," he ordered cart- ly, nudging Tom with the point of the pistol: Burke stood up. As he moved down the narrow aisle he bumped. Judith's seat. A packet of papers slid quickly and noiselessly from his right sleeve and dropped be- side her. Swiftly she shifted her• arni to cover the bundle and Burke walked on to the door with the foreigner behind hint. ,Little prickles stung at Judith's skin as she realized site had the plans of the bomber in her posses- sion, Heavy waved his gun and moved down toward the outside door. "Don't anybody move," he warned, pausing at the door. "1. ain't minding to pull this trigger.

Hes calm- ness bad deserted"her now. She kept thinking of the papers her fingers grasped in the seat be- side her. When the spies discov- ered the plans were missing, they would return and make a thorough search for Ton's accomplice. She stuffed the papers into her purse and stood up. She made her way to the cabin up front and edged in. "How long before he will conte around?" she asked the doctor. He shook his head slouvly, "Can't say. It looks like a bad.

Overs as i�rll is Air Mail Cancelled -Air mail from. Canada to civil- ians in Britain has been discon- tinued, postal authorities said last week. Airgraphs still travel by bomb- er, and so do as many as possible of the special blue air mail forms to men in the forces, However, a large percentage. of these at present go by boat also. A • similar situation exists for mail traveling from Britain to Canada, There is only sufficient aircraft to carry about 10 per eent of the air quail, officials said.

He was hit over the head—a nasty blow." "They may • come back," said Judith, and for the first time in her life her voice trembled with fright. The plans made her purse bulge, a.nd reminded her con- stantly of the real donger she was facing. Tlie man spoke again. "I wonder what those fellows wanted? What they were after?" Judith pretended not to hear. "1 think I'll go outside and have a look. I really don't believe any- one is around now." "l'ni coming with you," Judith told hint and followed quickly. Others, seeing their intentions, came too. "You'lI have to jump for it," said the man with a grin. He leaped to the ground and reached to help her down. "My name is Harry Hornsby," The stars twinkled overhead, but there was no moon, Someone playing a flashlight over the ground discovered the car tracks on the hard sand, winding in and out among the sage brush. Judith followed the tire marks with no definite purpose in mind. Then in the distance, a light suddenly appeared. Her heart stood still but she did not cry out. In a moment one of the others saw the glow and exclaimed: "They're coming back'. Get hack to the plane everyone. Don't • give them an excuse to shoot." When Judith did not follow, Hornsby turned hack for her. She pulled away from h:s hand. "I'm not cording,' she stated firmly. "Not—" he began.' "No. I can't. Please return with the others and just forget where you saw me Last. 1 will be much safer that way. Please!" At first Hornsby rofuse.l to leave her, but she insisted han- tieally, on the verge of do 4 perat.e tears.

He said this would prevent difficulty in sorting and delay in delivery, Typewritten addresses or hand- written addresses in small char- acters are difficult to decipher, delayinp sorting and mailing,. Wartime Nurseries Relieve Mothers Twenty-five thousand ch.ildren are being cared for in 644 war- time nurseries in Great Britain, 70 of them in London, and 700 more nurseries will soon be opened. Mothers of young children are not high-pressured into industry, but many want to work, partly because they are, eager to help defeat the Germans, and partly because—notably in the case of the wives of soldiers—they flncl it hard to live on their allowauces. For. about 20 cents a day the tots are cared for by skilled nurses and teachers. They are well fed and receive medical attention. The 20 cents does not pay for all care, the balance of expense being borne by the Government. India Increases Food Production India now produces canned cheese, compressed vegetables, de- hydrated potatoes, essence of .chicken, dried fruit and other processed foods to add variety to the diet of the soldiers stationed there, it is disclosed in New Delhi, About 4,000 tons of dried fruit and 300 to 400 tons of canned cheese will be supplied.

Lake. ui1t Sub On Way To Se First Undersea Craft Ever Built On Great Lakes The U.S.S. Peto, first naval sub- marine eve:' built on the Great Lakes, has begun its long voyage to the sea. Headquarters of the ath Navil District announced that the big undersea boat, more than 300 feet long. had entered the Illinois water- way on her way to join the ignited States fleet. She Will not be ready for action, however; until she has undergone extensive fitting out at New Or- leans. The Pete was built at Manito- woc, \Vis., by the Manitowoc Ship Building Company. Her keel was laid June 18, 1941, She was launch• ed last April 30 and commissioned November 22: Four more' subs are in the water at Manitowoc and five more on the ways. For reasons of security, news of the Pete's departure was withheld until she had passed safely through the Chicago River and was en her way to Lockport, Ill. There she will be eased into a great box, a sort of floating drydock, for her trip down the IIlinois River and the Mississippi. AJ1 tests for the Peto, including dives, were conducted in Lake Michigan, with compensation be- • ing made for the fact that fresh water is not as bouyant as salt water. LE T LKS SADIE B. CHAMBERS MILK• iXND 'NOTRITION If you are interested in Canada and the health of Canadians—and I'm sure that you are—you are ur- gently asked to take a very deep interest in what you are eating and in what you prepare for others to eat. The following is taken from the literature supplied by the nutri- tional Supervisor of the Canadian Red Cross. Milk is one of the most import- ant foods because it furnishes the material which is necessary for good bones and teeth, and it also helps to safeguard the general health. Canadian doctors in the pamphlet "Food for Health in Peace and War" advise us that every child should have at least elee, pints of milk each day and each adult at least r,2 piut, Does your fancily have this much milk? If you are not using that amount start today to plan for more milk in your menus if you wish to have your children grow into strong, healthy adults. Cheese also is another form of milk which contains in Iarge quan- tities material for the muscles. r'heeee also has a pleasing flavor ;which makes it valuable for• com- bining with other foods such as macaroni and rice. When served with these it helps to take the place of meat. One pound of cheese is equal to approximately 3 quarts of milk. There are many forms of milk on the market today. Here are some of them—Whole milk, skim milk, powdered milk, Chocolate milk, Homogenized milk. When you are buying milk it is wise to buy the kind which will give the most bone building mater- ial for the money. Skimmed milk will not contain as much fat or have as rich a flavor as whole milk. However, it is necessary for some to do without this fat and it does supply the food material for building teeth and bones. This can be used with a great saving on the milk hill, 1f you can procure it. Skim milk should not he given to babies. Evaporated milk is just as valu- able as whole milk, and since most of it is irradiated with Vitamin T3 it is especially valuable in the low ' cost of food list, because in many centres in Ontario it is cheaper than whole milk at 12 cents a quart. Chocolate milk is more valuable when it is properly made at home. When there is a desire to econ- omize, the children should be en- , eouraged to have milk drinks in- stead of "pop." Soft drinks should never be allowed to replace milk in the child's diet. They do not contain the material so necessary for the good health and growth of your child. When buying cheese to supple- ment the milk diet, cottage or plain Canadian Cheddar are the mast economical varieties to pur- chase. Today Mrs. Economy and Mrs. Extravagance each spent abetit 50 cents on milk and cheese. Isere is how each one spent her money. Mrs. Economy 2 cans evaporated milk 15e 2 quarts milk 24c x Ib. cheese 10e 490 Mrs. Extravagance 1 eau evaporated milk 08e 1 tivart Jersey milk 140 f% lb, cream cheese 30c a* 62c In addition to getting a larger amount of food to eat Mrs, Econ- omy obtained 1% times the am- ount of energy, twice the material for muscle building and repairs, 1% times the material for bones and teeth, twice the material for building good blood. If the parents in the home drink a little milk each day there will seldom be- any trouble in getting "Johnny" and "Mary" to drink. their milk too.
