This, perhaps, is what muites you interested in the mysterious and the occult You are eager to know why your hunches turn o so right Your mind is a keen and alert one, but unless you understand yourself, you may become rather worried at your alternating moods of extreme exhilaration and deep depression. You will discover that good health is often the answer, so take care uf yourself if you are to operate at peak production at all times.

You have a magnelle personality, and there is likely to be faore than one romance in your life. You may also wed more than once. For your marriage, to bring complete happiness, It must be to someone who fully understands your moods and temperament.

Among those barn on this date were: Marcella Sumbrich, singer; Galleo. physicist; Juseply Hergesheimer, author: De William Lorenz. psychiatrist; Elit Root, statesman; Charles Tiffany, merchant, and John Barrymore, actor.

AT 7.25 p.m. on May 6, 1987, the giant airship Hindenburg was poised for a routing landing at its mooring mast at Lakehurst, New Jersey. Thirty-four seconds later the alrahip was a white-hot skeleton on the ground

... and 26 of her passengers and crew had died.

Those 34 seconds put an end to an era of aviation, a 50-year era of brilliant and dangerous axperiments, an era of high drama in which it seemed that the silver monsters which floated over the great cities of the world were to establish a new age of air travel.

Now comes the full exciting story of man's struggle to conquer the problems of flight by the use of lighter- than-air gases.

Its author has re-created, minute by minute, second by second, the great dramas that stirred the world during the era of airship travel. He has pioced together a fantastic document from hundreds of first-hand - accounts given to him by survivors.

Everyone is flying

The story of the great flights and death flights that made airships admired and feared beyond all other means of transportation.
