A Ing grief of three aviation tragedies. Mrs. Hancock's first sorrow came in August, 1921, when her husband, Lieut.

Later she became engaged to another aviator, but before the date set for the wedding, he, too, lost his life in an airplane accident. Her second husband, Com1 mander Loafs II.

Her health shat tered, she was forced to go to the hospital for a complete rest and quiet But with a bravery quite worthy of an army widow, Mrs. Hancock has fought for her life and health, and at last has managed to face the future with a smile and forget the grim, cad past. Someone has said that sorrow is an education. But when you are under the smothering folds of sadness it is awfully hard to see it so philosophically. And yet, when it is past and time has soothed the actual pain, when out of the chaos life resumes an orderly unfolding, you can look back and see for yourself that you HAVE learned something. You're learned sympathy, understanding, and, best of all, TOLERANCE! Afflictions that , once made you shudder or recoil will now draw quick tears. Ugliness that one left you rigid will now make you want to set it Littleness, selfishness aright. those things belong only to days of unmarred Joy. Maybe that's why it is said kr that to be jrreat one must know sorrow. For sorrow is the fire that brings out true metal; it i th keynote to the UNIVERSAL HEART! lynit 0. Mrs. Joy Bright Hancock.
