at least these two great contests will
take place. In addition to the Wrigbts
Curtiss and Hamilton, the veteran
Baldwin has said that he Will enter

mon. Mars and many more. Some Gny
fall by the wayside. but it is 2 GER
tainty that others will go through. A
French aeroplane has already gone
105 miles at one fight, carrying the
aviator and two passengers and tax
ing photographs on the way. America
cannot be left behind in a contest in
volving the use of her own invention.
The New Washington event is
also assured. and a host of others will
follow. These contests will place the
entire nation truly in the beginning g
the flying age.

ChiIdren's Day Exercises.

An excellent Children's Day exer-
else was rendered at the Christian
Church Sunday night.
BY the time the sun was sinking
behind the western horizon the church
was comfortably filed and standing
room was at a premium.
Hundreds who unfortunately arrived
a little late could not be accommo-
dated, and consequently were disap-
pointed.
From the opening song until the
close Of the program the large audi
ence listened attentively and thor
oughly appreciated the splendid exer-
cises.
From the favorable comments 1t is
reasonable to conclude that this was
one of the best exercises of the kind
ever held in Hillsboro. The children
were we'll trained and performed theil
parts in very creditable manner.
The apportionment for this schoo
for foreign missions was $500, but
more than this amount was receive eo
