We will need to recognize the vari-
GUS kinds of service that the world re-
quires. And when we have found the
place in that realm of service that be-
longs to us and fitted ourselves into it,
we will need a sympathetic feeling to-
ward and appreciation of the service
that claims the energies Of others.
Religion has it's contribution to
make, toward our success. And no
where is it seer more strikingly than
in this idea of service. Service there
may be stepped in selfshness, with
Christ left out of it, but it will be
superficial at lest and lack the very
heart of honesty. Some people pratt
tie with the fringe of religion to keep
up a form of religious responsibility.
! But it is religions mission to keep us
continually at our best. 1t is the
spirit of Christ in the life that gives
dignity to the service to which he
calls US. We shall be successful in
the degree in which we find the place
where we belong-the kind Of serv-
ice to which we are best suited-and
apply ourselves intellectually to
cur task. There are those who toll
with their muscles and there are
! those who toll with their brains and
all alike are the servants of God.
"When earth's last picture is paint
ed, and the tubes are twisted and
dried, ,,
When the oldest colors have faded,
and the youngest critic has died,

two,
Till the Master of All Good Workmen
shall set us to work anew!
| And those who were good shall be
happy: they shall sit in a golden
They shall splash at a ~ten-league can

| They shall find real saints to draw

They shall work for an age at a sit

| And only the. Master shall praise us,
and only the Master shall blame; .
| And no one shall work for monev.
and no one shall work for fame;
But each for the Joy of the working,

Shall draw the things as he sees it for

RETURN
BY BEACHEY
TO SURPASS
Other FEATS

Lincoln Beachey was regarded as the
aviators. He earned this reputation long
before the French flyers, headed by Pc
goud began to glide through the air up
side down. Beachcy was in retirement
when these feats were heralde.l and was
drawn back into the game by his desire
to surpass the remarkable flying OF the
Frenchmen. With an aeroplane Of small
wing surface he flew upside down, made
spirals while head downward, and looped
the loop.
Beachey was born in San Francisco in
September. 1851, and made his first fight
in 1895 at Oakland, Cal, plotting a dirigi-
bic balloon. In 1906 he circled the Capitol
at Washington. He scared over New
and the wind whirled the dirlgibe across
the river, wrecking it,
His first heavier-than-a machine, a
monoplane, was wrecked at st. Paul in
1910. He made a successful fight in Los
Angeles, but then wrecked another flier.
On May 5, 1911, he was the first man
to circle the Capitol in Washington in an
aeroplane. He then startled the world
by flying over Niagara Falls. Later he
won the first intercity aeroplane race in
America, flying from New York to Phil
adelphia.
He was the most prominent figure in
the 1911 Chicago aviation meet, spiraling
at sharp angles.
Early in 1879 Beachey announced that
he had made his last flight, asserting
that he felt partly responsible for the
deaths of nine aviators who had tried 10
emulate him. When the deeds of the dar-
ing Frenchman were chronicled he re-
turned to flying. In October, 1913, at
Hanmondsport, y. Y, his machine swept
several spectators from roof, killing
one.
Beachey boosted that 100000 persons
had seen him fly.

She admitted receiving one ring b.

Mrs. Carpenter was emphatic in her
testimony and added considerable

room she also admonished both Miller
and Lachance to take heed Of this les

born in Bath and now hailed from

Used New Machine

The fatal fall was attributed to the
fact that Beachey entrusted his life
today for the first time in several
years to 4 monoplane. An exceptional
~ large crowd had been attracted to
the fair grounds to see whether he
would attempt the same exploits in
the new machine that he had perform
ed in his biplane
On the first flight all went well, and
the aviator's familiar tracks were in
oulged in with the exception of the
perpendicular drop. This Beachey had
saved for the climax. 1t proved too
much Of strain for the frame of the
monoplane.
The machine was at an altitude OF
about 1000 feet when Beachey shut off
his power. For several thousand feet
it dropped head on for the earth, and
then the aviator grasped his control
levers to adjust the planes for the
graceful descent which had character
lied previous flights.
Falls Into Bay
At that point the wings crurnpled
and the aeroplane, turning over and
over in it's fall, plunged into San
Francisco bay, narrowly missing q
vessel lying at the government trans
port docks.
Hundreds of spectators rushed to the
nearby water front, but with the ex-
ception of a few fragments of the
aeroplane floating on the surface OF
the bay, no sign of the wrecked ma
chine could be seen.
Launches put out Immediately,
equipped with graphing hooks, and a
boats crew from the battleship Ore

tance away. Joined in an attempt to
recover the body Of the aviator, which
was strapped to the machine under 40

Will Patrol Riverside
For z IL Cents From
Each Resident

An offer to patrol Riverside at night
for the sum of two and one-half cents
a night from each resident was made
by William A. Bowers, 1119 North
Seventh street, whose application on
those terms was read at the monthly
town meeting last evening. Should
ever resident agree to this plan his
monthly compensation would be more
than $50.
A large committee was appointed
last night to canvass Riverside inter-
viewing all of the residents to ascer-
tain whether or not they favor the
proposition. No action was taken last
night owing to the small attendance
at the meeting. The subject will be
brought up again at the next meeting
Tuesday November 8. Two cank
dates were unanimously endorsed by
the men who were present last night.
They were l.. L. Sturtevant, for town
ship supervisor and H. C. Miller for
schol doirector.
