Howard wriu-a as follovn: "Well, the Chicairo Hhow is over and I sure am Khul. It was a hard week and we worked liko the deuce with a lot of trial and fears he fore we finally put it over. Jtadio sets are temperamental and it took a lot of work to k'-ep them koIiik Hut as you see by the enclosed vllp pin? it went hiK. 'This is the first time that a two- way conversation between airplane and around has ever been broadcast ulso we have carried on conversation from plnno to plane over greater ih tance than ever before, and our reco id of 115 m i h-s f r m s ro u n d to plane and plane to ground is world record. 1 believe. 'You ee wo received the stuff from the ' nlr on a receiver that to AVLS, who sent it oift, then they switched to the microphone at the h nullum, and what 1 said to the plane was also sent out. Wl-H has had hundreds of let tors' about this and It was a big hit at the show, as we got more applause for each maneu ver than nny other act. "Once 1 told them they were malt ing their turn too slowly. Instantly the ship cocked up and swung In a sharp bank. Another time one fel low was a little behind and 1 told him to pull up. Instantly a cloud of smoke from his exhaust indicated Ills response and In a second he was in position. 1 told Ueutenant Johnson to introduce tho pilots, and each in turn was introduced, dipping his wings as a bow to the audience. "General Hale was so impressed, as was Vice-President Dawes, that he is sending a letter to the Adjutant (Jeneral of the army and to General Patrick. And 1 was on the micro-! phone on the gi'ouiid and have had ' more cumpllments on tho way 1 handled it than you can Imagine. Kven people in Itantoul recognized my voice when they were receiving." Tho Chicago Sunday Tribune of May 24 describes these experiments Its follows: "Twenty thousand men, women, nnd children sat in the Grant park Mt ad turn yesterday afternoon at the military show nnd watched with wonder nnd awe whilo three nlr planos 3500 feet up performed like trained animals at commands trans mitted to the pilots by radio from the ground. "Thore was perfect communica tion by voice between the planes und the ground station all the while the Hhlps were In the nlr. The voices of commander and commanded could he heard plainly by all Issuing from a dozen loud speakers high up on tho top of a pole. At commands from the ground sta tion tho thr.ee ships flew from "V" formation into line" formation and hack again, dipped nnd ascended, dropped to 1000 feet and thou climh d back up again to 2&00, while tho thousands below watched with fasci nated (fyes and then hurst into cheer ing. "Army flyers attached to tho air flervico did It. It was a record break ing accomplishment, it was the mak ing of radio and nlr history. "It was the second record of the day broken during the show by the army flyers. Until yesterday, voice communication between two planes in the air has been limited to planes flying not moro than five miles apart. "Yesterday Meat. Charles Howard in one plane and Ueut. I,. 1. Hlckey in anothor, talked for nn hour hack and forth while they flow 15 miles upart. "'Hello! Is that you, Hlckey?' Howard would say, and Hickey would como back, 'Yes, Charley, how are you?' nnd so on for 80 minutes. "It was Lieut. Howard who had chargo of the ground station at the madium, while the three planes, pi loted in turn by Ueut, Hlckey. Ueut. Henry Salzman, nnd Uout. Arthur 1.. .Inhnson, moved about, dipped, nnd dropped and climbed again at his command. " 'Hello! said Howard as the planes flew over tho Held nt 3&00 Xeot in 'V formation. "'Hello! This is N0. 1 This is No. 2, 'Hello' This 3!' came back the answers out of the loud speakers. All risht.' said Howard, 'If you hear this command you will come Into line formation!' "Instnntly tho answer enme back, three voices: 'Ave, aye, sir. "Then In a twinkling tho lend ship hesitated, it seemed, while the two forming .the triangle of tho 'V speeded up nnd nil came Into line. M 'You will turn to tho left.' com manded Hownrd, and at once tho three ships turned to the left. You will turn to tho right.' ho ordered, nnd immediately the ships turned to the right. " 'You will drop down to 1000 feet nnd tho noses dipped and the three came down. "When they had le- Hceneo; ror a short time tho nnos came up und out of tho loud speaker came: 'We arc now nt 1000 feet The aviators who will pilot the two seaplanes in the flight to search fur the explorers and their mechanics, are busy each day on the Ingertre testing the engines and appliances, which in elude skll sledH and a collapsible boat The plan is to follow Amundsen's Instruction to seurch around north eastern Spitsbergen for a period of six weeks after Amundsen's departure (which was May 21).

STATES-Supplied by 32 Folger distributing Statims-Jr enjoy these pioneer products of the Pacific Seventy-five years ago the pioneer coffee and spice mill of the Pacific Coast .was established in San Francisco by James A. Folger. It was a modest plant, for in those days most housewives bought green coffee and roasted it them- -selves. But James A. Folger was a far sighted pioneer. He quickly sensed that high quality coffee roasted evenly and uniformly in commercial quantities would have,an instant appeal to the Western housewife. He was right. ' . The business expanded rapidly. It grew with the country. The plant at San' Francisco was constantly increased to meet the demand for Folger's i products from the Coast States. Then, in 1900,. Folger's Coffee was introduced in the Middle-West and South-West the first Pacific Coast Coffee to be sold East of the Rockies. . , So today in our Diamond Jubilee year it requires three complete plants and thirty-two distributing stations to supply Folger's products to the retail trade in 29 states. On the first package of Folger's roasted coffee was printed this slogan: "Our Success is Dependent upon Quality." On such a foundation has the V' Folger business grown to its Diamond Jubilee year. Quality has carried ..' " through these seventy-five years and must always be in the product before it is given a Folger label. . ' , ' . That is our assurance to the hundreds of thousands of loyal Folger cus- " tOmerS. T . At t?t . rr San Francisco Kansas City Dallas Shidzuoka, Japan Hello!
