the lad's
innate rascality had been revealed, and from reports Fanning is working
hard to redeem the past and make himself a good and useful man.

"And so the mystery of the phantom airship and the missing jewels is all
cleared up," said Peggy to Jess one day a short time after the events
just described had transpired.

"Yes," rejoined her chum, "and the air seems clearer and fresher somehow.
It is terrible to have a dark cloud of suspicion hanging over one."

"It is, indeed," rejoined Peggy; "and now, as Roy leaves in a few days
for the West, let's all take a good long spin. You and I will go in the
Golden Butterfly while the boys can run along below us in the auto."

But Jess looked a bit doubtful.

"Wouldn't Roy like to go in the aeroplane?" she said.

Peggy broke into merry laughter.

"Oh, you sly puss," she exclaimed. "Very well, then you and Roy in the
Golden Eagle and Jimsy and I in the auto."

"Suits me," cried Jimsy, throwing his arm around his sister's waist, "but
I thought you were the girl aviator of the family, Peggy."

"So I am," laughed Peggy, "but I am willing to yield my place for once."

"Well, if you'll excuse my horrid slang," laughed Jimsy, "I think I may
say we've all been 'up in the air' for the last few weeks. But it's all
over now and we'll settle down to humdrum life once more."

"It's been jolly, though," protested Peggy.

"With some parts left out," put in Jess.

But although no adventures just like those we have related happened again
to the Girl Aviators, they were due to encounter some more strange
experiences. In fact, both Peggy and Roy and their friends were on the
brink of some odd happenings, the narration of which must be postponed to
another volume of this series.

What these complications and adventures, both merry and perilous, proved
to be will be set down in full detail in "The Girl Aviators on Golden
Wings," a breezy tale of our aerial maids.
