Without qualification she. is the greatest woman stunt flyer ever developed in thi country, or any other place. She does every thing In the book, upside down flying, outside loops, upside down otrtslde spins, all the conventional stunts nnd others that you never heard of or saw before. She's wonderful. Twenty thousand spec tators at Portland's Rose Festival were amazed at her exhibition; al most that number at Kelso re cently were amazed and eight crnck men stunt pilots were, cha- j grinetl when she took nil honors, tine's a wondt'r." .

'. It !s the policy of the pari: Hint there must he nothing on the rim of the lake that will mar the to- pography. j In past years people coming into; the park have had no wuy of com-; ing in contact with the ramieiH nnd I natuialists to learn the stories of i the ancient Mt. Mazama nnd the) hidden secrets of Crater Lake, nor; have they had any way in which to , meet the administrative; officers of the park to issue complaint:! or oth er comments. Now park visitors will benefit' through the information obtained from the staCf of rangers and nat uralists who serve dally al this new information office. The members of the park service have been able to make a greater number of contacts since the open ing of the office on July 1 than In any three previous years. Circulars of general information of all national parks are issued, as well as maps of the park and other government publications. Flower stands which in previous years have been located on the porch of the community house are now transferred" to the entrance of the Information office and are nd vaneageously displayed. T HILL CITY. Kas., July 29. (P) Joyce Plackman, sheriff of C.ra ham county, was shot and serious ly wounded early today when he attempted to arrest Alfred (Red) Cu m ni I ngs, wa n ted on a mu id er charge at North Platte. Neb. The sheriff, accompanied by Deputy Richard Odle, upproached Cu ni m I n gs and h is co m pa n lo n , Floyd Huntington, bearing a state warrant for the former's arrest. Ciimnilngs fired, one bullet strik ing Sheriff lUackman near the heart and another penetrating his arm. As Cummings fled, Uepnty Odle fired at him. He was believed to have been wounded in the back. Sun-Telegraph, and other papers, suggests that those in need of "a little encouragement can look at the condition of the federal treas ury." That seems like advising (he hun gry to look through the glass win dow of a restaurant. Hut iignres quoted hy Mr. Coulidge are encour aging. "Tim national debt has been reduced by ten hilllun dollars and now stands at a little over Hixtoen billion dollars. The interest charge has been practically cut In two, but is still over $ti00.000.000.M Mr. Coolidge also reminds you that "we have had five reductions of , taxes which gives the-people di rect, relief of, about $2,000,000,000 yearly." ; Credit for the draft of tax bills, iSHtting new secnrities that cut the average interest rate helnw 4 per cent, is due to Secretary. -Mellon, says Mr. Coolidge. Credit lor the policy of economy "belongs to the President," but Mr. Coolidge doesn't say which Proai dcnl. A II 1 1 lo credit also, although Mr. Coolidge doesn't mention it, be longs to the American citizens, who have been taxed to pay off the ten billions in bonds, and are taxed now to tnet every foolishness that Congress can invent. It is wise and Interesting after each Sunday to review the say ings of the distinguished clergy, for instance: The Reverend Dr. Wagner says too many are chained to the wheels of money. That's our trouble. Canon ,1. Forbes Mitchell of Scot laud says youth should live more intensely. His advice is something like that of Dante: "Work as Na ture works in fury." Professor Ilaughton of the School of Theology says earth's various faiths will merge. That would at least stop religious quarrels. Rabbi Morris Lichenslein says too much pleasure is "the foe of our life." Ilishop Abbott, of the Kentucky Protstant Kpiscopal church snys he trsed lo think women ran the Cnit ed Stales, but knows now that chil dren run it. He has confidence In the children. -f The saddest religious news comes from Charles Stelzle. representing religious and semi-religious organi zations. He says: "Modern evan gelists admit that their work has failed." Religion, even with ardent evan gelists to make it interesting, can not - compete, with "the- radio, auto mobile, pports and commercialism." Also he finds "men more spirit ual minded than women when oncq, they are converted." And "the In terest of women In religion is com paratively superficial." If thnt In true, women have changed since they were "Inst at the rro and first at the tomb EAGLE POINT AREA KAfiU-: POINT. Ore.. July 29. (Special.)
