Mo. y Get Ready For Chautauqua , Thin is the year when La Grande has an honest-lo-lluodncss Chautauqua, Get ready for it. ! There will not be any from Timlmctoo or from tho forth Pole here to tell you a lot of fairy stories such us IJie Ellison-White and many other circuits provide, but tjicre will be a body of northwest talent music, oratorical ijnd dramatic to attract your attention. It Is -better to have a northwest program. That is hj) fiiirent to everyone who has ever attended a Chautnuqua. tWhavc sat and listened to the veteran Deauchump, who cunics about every two years with iiia old lecture; we have listened to a bunch of kids from Iowa as they fiddled and sane;, we have listened to the man who said he had spent h is i life unions: the uncivilized in Africa, and in every in stance we were sure that the northwestern talent of school and college could have given a much better program. This year is a red letter year in Chautauqua work, so get? ready and enjoy every number. ;u;'i Remarkable Air Feats e "tm'y told by Lieut. Lowell II. Smith, the present maimer 01 mo American around-Uie-world flight, im presses the fact that three planes which negotiated tho rij) around the Aleutian Islands and into Japan performed i feat little short of the impossible. J Flying in fog, snow and rain, buffeted by the Arctic 1 injls, yet meeting with no insuperable obstacle to their urther progress, the outcome is not lios lhaii a miracle. JVs Lieut. Smith admits, the undertaking was mnnv times piore difficult than they had imagined it could be. If they ad known what they were to be compelled to combat m 1m passage from America to sia doubtless they would ;iiut have hesitated personally, for an aviator is by nature glaring, but the authorities might have withheld the smic Uuu because of the peril attending it.' usThat the planes .were able to withstand the buffeting ppwhich" they were subjected is evidence of the stability pj their construction and proof that great decidability gjSs lieen gained in such craft. It is evident that tremen ffius progress has been made in staunchness compared with ISe fragile character of the earlier planes. Yet there must fijvc Ih'cii a high class of airmanship if such a word coin age is permissible on the part of the men, for every mc fmnt must have presented problems of flight which had ji lie decided on the instant. There would be no time for Mnsultatiou on the course to be pursued, it had to be done once. g The element of good fortune must also be reckoned. 33tey flew through fog but did not hit any mountains. tCijor Martin did. The three may not have been more fttpable fliers than their unlucky first leader. They had famy troubles but they triumphed over them. They were tended by a more kindly destiny. May it continue until S planes finally alight at Santa Monica.
