In the current news dispatches we find an aviator m aking a hurried night flight to bring serum to a little girl in Albuquerque, New Mexico from El Paso, Texas. The child was threatened with cerebro-spinal m eningitis and the only hope of saving her life lav in the delivery of the toxin at the risk of the life of the aviator. E. C. Quick, took the chance and made good. Again, in the far northern reaches of Siberia other pilots sacrificed their lives to fly to the relief of the lost relief plane which has been m issing for weeks.

Judging from the editorial expressions of the News we take it that the News, like the expression of the black crow, wouldn’t like G rants Pass if it was good.
