DAILY EAST OREGONIAN, PENDLETON, OREGON, ROAD REPORT OVEN m KATtlttUA V' KVKN Vii SATURDAY EVENING. Boys and Girl s FRIDAY AND SATURDAY ARE GOING TO BE BIG GALA DAYS FOR THE KIDDIES Rex Ellis and Edwin R. Schiller are giving the treat. They are taking advantage of the visit of Mr. Hedges of the Red Cross Life Saving Corps, who will be at the natatorium Friday and Saturday to instruct the Pendleton boys and girls in life saving and how to take care of themselves in the water when they get into difficulties. Mr. Manuel Friedly, acting Mayor of Pendleton, has taken off the admittance fee to the natatorium during these two days. After the life saving demonstrations they are going to have r. swimming and athletic contest, and give prizes for the best boy and best girl diver in Pendleton. THEN AT 6:30 IN THE EVENING a big aeroplane exhibition by Captain Charles R. Parmalee, the famous war aviator, who will do all kinds of dare-devil stunts, such as flying upside down, tail spins, nose dives, whipstalls, wings-over, etc. Arrangements have been made for Douglas D. Clark, the intrepid air dare-devil of the Pathe Film Com pany, to give exhibitions of wing-walking and do other aerial gymnastics, while the plane is going at the rate of 100 miles an hour. This is the man you have seen in the movies changing from one plane' to another in midair, from a plane to a racing automobile, and to a speeding express train; hanging to the landing gear of the plane by his toes, etc. Oh, say, fellows! How many of you have ever been up in a plane? Well, Mr. Schiller and Mr. Ellis have arranged with Captain Pharmalee to carry passengers. It will cost Dad and Mother $5.00 each to take a ride, but any boy or girl wishing to take a ride can do so by only paying $3.00, as Mr. Schiller and Mr. Ellis will pay the other $2.00.
