Tho airplane covered 11,000 mittft of tho 13,000 rnilt'H of chart or air routes of tho nation ami inndi.! in 108 diiffrnt ports from where thf innil wan ruwhr-il on to final delivery 'by railroad trains, electric llneH, motor truokH, pepd boats, and other methods of transportation. The Will.VR-Ovorlnml Whlppot mall shipment more than doubled anything over before attempted by tho airmail service and demon strnled to the Hnltafnction of army and navy obBervers American aeronautical preparednoHt for any peace-timo emorffoncieB and mili tary rU'icnuo In time of war. Twenty army pursuit planes from Kelfrlflffo field oHcorted tho mall planes at tho bptflnnlnff of tho 1'llKht and proved their nbfllty to cooperate with the commercial planed in tactical formations. 1'ostofflce officials under the leadership of Postmnster Oenvral New and Atwistant Postmaster tbrneml W. I. Olover, witnessed tho demonstration and were do liuhlfd because tliey knew tho let-lei-s would advortlso the advan tages of tho airmail to thousands who never before hnd rocelved mail by airplane, Hy tho same token, tho airmail enabled Willys Overland to present tho advan tages of its now Superior Whippets to tho thousands of hand-picked prospects. Tho snlpment of 30,000 pounds of mail compared with a totnl uverago dally shipment of nearly 10,000 pounds thruout tho United States. It cost tho Willys-Overland company $35,000 for stnmps nlone a It ho total expenses exceeded SSO.OOn. John N. Willys, president of the company, declared thai Willys-Overland is planning to use the airmail even more, extensively, particularly when tho tlmo ele ment is important. "Tho succors of this big experi ment is proof of tho rapid growth and splendid development of com mercial aviation In tho United States and Is nil tho moro slgnlfi eithl in view of tho fact that all this has been accomplished with out government HUhsldy which is a regular praotlco in European countrleH," Air. Willys said. "Two years ago this kind of a demon stration would havo been Impos sible. Tho speod with which these planes were mobilized and handled proves what could ho dono !n times of a national crisis." The military officials told Mr. Willys that tho load of nirmail carried by tho planes could as n -willy have boon 30,000 pounds of mustard gas for tho destruction of a national foo or 30,000 pounds of food or medical supplies for the relief of somo section of tho na tion stricken by famine or epi demic. Planes used for tho demonstra tion ranged from tho ginnt all metal trl-motored ships capable of carrying nearly two tons of mall, to tho bnby Waco biplanes which carry only two or three hundred pounds of mail nnd nro Valued at a half million dollars, Tho mall planes arriving In Med ford Sunday morning, Jan. 20, brought the letters lor all south ern Oregon people.

It was school time, his mother was gone, liot absolutely necessary for her to leaving directions for him to fid go out to work, but the money low when lie arrived at home.. Hut ther was no one to se thst the directions were carried out. Teddy played with the neighbors chil dren, nnd Mrs. Blank 1 no way of knowing that some of tho neighbors' children had been harniiig many wrong ami injuri ous habits. She did not know that now Teddy was also Wirnlng these same habits. She TT.id followed her child training system, und as it hnd worked out beautifully so far, she trusted it to go on work ing in her absence. Mrs. Jilank bad forgotten that n system of child training is at best only a tool, nnd cannot work with out the owner's band back of it. Ono cannot press a button to start the jnacbluery running In the morning, and then expect it to go on running smoothly all day. The right kind of a. tool will work wonders when someone Is present to uso it skillfully, but ft accomplishes nothing when it lies fit home without the trained hand to employ it. It was a terrible shock to Mrs. filank when sno heard of some things her son had been doing. Her eyes were opened to the fact that she wns needed at home. The money she was earn ing at the office was buying useful and beautiful things for tho home, nnd helping to pay off tho mort gage, hut Mrs. P.lank decided that it would bo better to be satisfied with the plainest of furniture, and take longer to pay for tho home. It took some time to undo the harm that hail resulted from neg lect, but the first step was a heifrt to heart talk with the boy. 1 le had imbibed a wrong Idea of ho value of money as compared with other things, by seeing his mother so eager to secure it. When he saw her give uy her salnry for the sake of doing her duty at home, it did him moro gooM than any amount of lecturing could have done. When his mother and father ceased to spend money on "fine clothes," cosmetics, and tobacco, then the boy began to see some thing bigger and better than a quest for money to spend for toys and candy. The tool worked again when its owner camo home and took It in her own hand. If a mother Is obliged to be away from home, some other com petent person should be left to care for her child. She must not expect her knowledge of child training to be effective during her continued absence. CrateM-tke Is otily a?J the arre-t of it. H.
