by Parmalee in alighting.
Has 4 New Stunt,

ana 30 exact 18 the meCnO0 employed
by Parmalee in alighting.
Has . New Stunt.
Parmalee has decidedly new stunt
for the Grand Forks and North Dako-
Ia crowds, in which he makes a land
ing on the back field, stops for q few
moments, and then starts out again.
The first time this stunt was put on
yesterday, even some of Parmalee's
own men thought that he had met
with an accident and had to come
down. One started toward him, but
had gone only short distance when
the engine was once more pounding
away, and the great biplane was
driven into the air again.
In taking Frank Coffyn on his
aerial journey yesterday afternoon,
Parmalee first made a trip down
toward the grand stand, near where
Cofyn was standing, and made known
to his fellow aviator just what lie
wanted. A few minutes later he had
made another landing, taking on
board his passenger, and was of.
McGoey Gets a Ride.
Last evening the Grand Forks
aviator, Thomas Mccoy, took ride
on the Wright biplane with Parmalee.
The flight was beautiful one, and
showed what perfect control the op-
orator has at every stage Of the game.
The machine was made to maintain
an even balance that was remarkable
to the extreme.
Up Six Times Tuesday.
In all, Parmalee went into the air
six times Tuesday. During the first
flights Of the day, he went up only
once, remaining in the air about
eleven minutes. On his second big
fight, he made three trips back to
the earth and made fresh starts,
while in the evening he was down
twice after making his first start.
Weather Was Perfect.
Flying weather Tuesday evening
was absolutely perfect. With. hardly
breath of wind stirring, the great
biplane responded to the every whim
OF its driver. and the maneuvering
IN the air was little short of wonder
full.
1t is the ease with which Parmalee
flies that has attracted the greatest
attention. He seemingly enjoys every
minute Of the time, but is constantly

cident that might happen to his ma
chine.
Details Impossible.
| To give an accurate detailed ac-
count of a Parmalee fight would be
we'll nigh impossible. The twists and
turns in the air are so many, the
dangerous places that he enters are
SO numerous, and the perilous en-
clines at which he will sometimes op-
crates his machine, come with such
startling rapidity as to be almost one
continuous flight of thrillers.

Judgings Arouse Interest.
Deep interest in the judgings was
maintained throughout the day. In
the cattle. poultry and horse depart
ments, big crowds were on hand to
witness the work Of the men who are
picking out the prize winners.
1t is expected that all Of the judg-
ings will be completed by tomorrow
noon, and after that time the visitors
will have an opportunity Of seeing the
best ones for themselves.
Flights Late Today.
Aeroplane flights will be pulled of
late this afternoon, the wind being
rather high for any early work. The
Kenworthy McGoey aeroplane Is in
condition again for flights, and Nc
Goey will send his machine up tonight.
Parmalee will make one or two flights
again with good weather prevailing.

than before. It will be half holiday
for the city, and that fact will allow
all to come. The program that will
be given will be one Of the very best.
There will be full features everywhere.
Numbered among the immense
crowd at the fair grounds today was
Governor John Burke, who arrived in
the city Tuesday evening to attend
the largest fair ever held in the state
over which he presides.

Success Of aviation features for the
North Dakota state fair are absolute
ly assured by the series of splendid
flights made yesterday by Aviator
Phillip o. Parmalee, and by the fur
ther fact that the Kenworthy-McGo cGoey
aeroplane is once more in position to
do business, and will be sent up late
this afternoon or tonight.
People who are coming to Grand
Forks to see the birdmen perform
will not be disappointed.
Parmalee says, wait for the big
days; there's lots more coming in
the way Of flights. He is enthusias-
tic over the splendid facilities that
are afforded both for making a get
away and for alighting. the great
space in the center of the race

The Opening of School.

The opening OF the public schools to-
day for another year gives opportunity
TO call attention to the substantial
progress which has been made in Wash
ington in educational matters. While
Congress has not always given to the
board of education the full amount
which has been asked in the way Of
appropriations. there is no question that
much liberality has been shown. and to
this fact is due the development of the
schools. The Mckinley Manual Train
ing School. for instance. is one of the
best equipped buildings in the country,
while the modern structures erected for
the graded schools are splendid ex-
amples of school architecture.
While it is customary to represent
children as regretting the return Of
school days, the fact remains that here
in Washington the pupils really seem
to appreciate the advantages which are
at their disposal The teachers are
kind intelligent, and sympathetic, while
the environment given to the scholars
IS most attractive. There is every rea-
son to believe, also, that under the new
superintendent OF schools the work out
lined will be well within the mental and
physical capacity Of the children. Mod
ern educational experience has demon
strated that it is worse than useless to
attempt to crowd the children with more
than they can accomplish.
incidentally. it is to be hoped that DR..
Davidson will be able TO make good his
promise that pull" will have no effect
in securing promotions or advantageous
assignments If he can remain in
different to the insidlous influences
which have in the past perneated the
school organization, his coming to
Washington will not have been in vain.
