Crane calls on Bertha for a spin in his machine. Bertha's mother, knowing Crane's reckless proclivities, is adverse to her daughter's acceptance. Now the terminus of their drive found them at the Aviation Field, where a number of flying men held forth. Among these was the dare-devil Lee Hammond himself. Lee was a great admirer of Bertha Monroe. Lee knew Miss Monroe's daring spirit, and his quickly given invitation to her for a flight was readily accepted by her. Before Crane realized what had happened, she was up in the air. In rage he dashed after them in his auto, but he soon came to grief, and was compelled to alight to tinker with the jarred mechanism. Hammond also alighted so that he might also pay his attentions to his fair companion. Soon, however, Crane was rushing on the scene, and what might have proved a tragic ending was averted by the clever girl, who proposed that the question of right to her be settled by a race. The race came off, the Aviation Field being selected for it. Then both machines, aero and auto, leaped forward like things alive, at terrific speed. At last the stamina of the thing of the air begins to count. The last lap had been made in a sensational flight; then came a startling culmination. The man-bird swooped down where the fair judge was standing, and the life and soul of the bird, Lee Hammond, reached out, clutched her, and bore her triumphantly aloft.
