Storm Hits Mr.. PenningtOn's Farm

The Transcript learns with regret that
the wind did some damage on the farm
of MIR. Frank Pennington near Odessa,
breaking some of his lawn tree, tearing
the roof off one corner of the house, be-
sides blowing down corn crib, and
several other smaller buildings.
Mr.. Pennington has just informed us
that unknown to him his wife last sum-
mer took out cyclone policy, so that
Aeolus with all his bluster has really
done him, no damage-the Insurance
Company footing all bills.

SEWARD WILL
 HAVE AIRSHIP
MACHINE ALREADY BOUGHT FOR RUN BETWEEN HERE
 AND IDITAROD.

That an airship has already been taken over by a Nome man and that ii will be used for the run between Sew ard and Iditarod is the news contain ed in the Los Angeles Examiner of the 4th of this month. Some time ago it was proposed to carry the Nome mails overland to and from the coast by aeroplane and we may come to that yet, but for the present it is interesting to know that man is now experimenting on a machine for the Seward run. The story appears on the front page of the Examiner. The only thing to be objected to in the story is that the aviator speaks of never taking less than $200,0OO worth of gold, but that would not be very often unless he tapped some other camp besides the Iditarod. The plan of taking gold and passengers is quite feasible. The following is the story from the Examiner:
 "An aerial gold-conveying service, the first in the history of aviation, to be used solely for hurrying gold from 500 miles in the interior of Alaska to the coast in one day, instead of six teen days as required by the dogs on the trails, is shortly to be established with a Glenn Martin sea plane as the carrier, according to Aviator Leon Richardson of Nome, Alaska, who has just arrived in Los Angeles.
 "Mr. Richardson came here from Alaska three days ago. Since then he has been experimenting with Mir. Martins machines,
 "I have selected a sea plane pro duced by Mir. Martin which can easily carry two passengers and 1000 pounds of gold said the aviator yes terday at the Lankershim, where he is stopping. I shall drive it myself daily from Seward to Iditaord, straight across two great mountain ranges, the Coast and the Alaskan
 "I shall never carry less than $2OOOOO on a trip. The interest say ed by my short cut will make my venture well worth while.

BETTER QUARTERS

Speech Is Interspersed With Many Anecdotes Which Keep His Hear CTS In Continual Laughter-Dr.
 Brown Presents Diplomas

Dr. W. s. currell, president of the Uni- versity of South Carolina. told the grad uates of the Central High school and the Enslev High school last night that they should forget much of what they had learned; that they would have to forget some of it in order to be able to assimilate other and more important knowledge in the world they would face henceforth. pr. Currel delivered the an- nual address at the Central High school auditorium. his subject being, Margin of Lives"
 His address was interspersed with many anecdotes and he kept the very large audience in a continual state of hugh ter, with enough of the serious to con- vince his hearers that he was in earnest in his advice to the graduates. He ''cap- tured'' his audience soon after beginning his address. Dr. Currell's head is un- usually bare of hair and he was con- tinually running his hand over his fore head, as though to push back the hail which was not there.
 "It keeps getting into my eyes" he explained amid the laughter of the au- dience.
 "Doubtless you are feeling very com plaisant over your achevements.' he said. addressing himself to the graduates "and you have right to feel proud thai you are reaching to the star of gradu. ation through the rough roads of ex. animation. But there is something you must attain that is far beyond your pres ent acquisition. Your knowledge may be represented by very small circle All you know is contained in that circle all you don't know is outside it. Yol don't realize how little you know ant the more you know the more you know you don't know"
