The first Dorchester man to get to
the front is Charles B. Roberts, OF
Rhodesdale, who is with the Amerl-
can EXpeditionary Force in France.
Mr.. Roberts went to the Mexican Dor
der with the Fifth Maryland Regl-
ment during the summer OF 1916,
was discharged in April of this year,
and enlisted in the u. s. Navy. In
June he was sent to France and has
been in the training school for ava
tors since then.
The following letter was received
recently from him:
Il have finished my training on
land machines and now am learning
water machines. We are camping on
the shore OF a fresh water lake, as
we have to put in ten hours alone on
smooth water flying and then go on
rough water and put in one hundred
hours, SO you see it takes sometime
20 learn | put in twenty hours alone
on land machines, and during that
Time l made sixty landings. Land
ing is the hardest part OF the lying
game. Talk about having fun, you
should have been with me when L
Went up for my altitude test. 1t was
i little cloudy, and | was supposed
20 so to three thousand meters, and
/ got as high as tWenty-one hundred,
when a storm caught me, and l was
right in a cloud. l knew that would
never do; l could not see thing,
not even the tips of the wings of my
machine. You see, when you get
n a thick cloud you cannot tell
whether you are flying upside down
or net.
Wen, | was in this cloud, and
thinking how was going to get out,
or down, when all of a sudden l felt
Ill my insides come up in my throat,
and the next moment l saw myself
come out of the cloud in a perfect
nose dive, and when L managed to
get her out OF the nose dive,I looked
1T my altitude record and found that
had dropped seven hundred meters.
Believe me, l was very much relieved
o get on the ground again.
The next day it was clear, and /
vent up and made a perfect record.
The machine l had would make
about eighty miles an hour. l was
II the air one hour and half, and
-orty-five minutes of that time | was
up three thousand meters. You have
40 idea what it is to be that high,
al by yourself. 1t is great, and the
ground looks so far away, and every
thing on it looks so small that a
building two hundred feet square
looks about as large as your finger
nail, and il is all you. can do to see
IN ordinary house. 1t is also very
cold, even in the summer, at three
thousand meters; it was below freez-

for the improvement of the lateral high
ways within the enlarged district and to
construct main trunk line highway
through the center of the district to the
Salmon river near the mouth of Rocky
canyon where connection with the Cot
tonwood highway district will be effect

join in the construction of a bridge
across the Salmon river at this point
and the Cottonwood highway district
will continue the construction of the
permanent highway up Rocky canyon to
Cottonwood where connection with the
north and south state highway system
will be effected.
1t is stated this consolidation plan
is responsible for the defeat of the pro-
posed bond issue in the Doumeeq high
way district recently, the opposition at
that time having developed among
voters who favored the construction of
"a highway to connect with the north
and south state highway at Cottonwood.
The estimates of the proposed highway
construction will be made at an early
date and the bond election will be called
so that all preliminaries may be dis.
posed of and the contracts awarded for
construction work early next spring.
The members of the state highway
commission spent three days in the

nand and Cottonwood. An inspection
trip was then made from Grangeville to
Nezperce and later from Nezperce to
Winchester. These trips gave the COM

communities and the conditions to be
encountered in the construction of the
north and south state highway through
the prairie country and when Boise is
reached. the conditions on the link from
Grangeville south will be well under

planned they were making the trip to
acquaint themselves with the general
conditions to be encountered in the
north and south state highway construc-
ton and to inspect the highways in the
northern part of the state where tho
state has Joined in the construction
work
Following the meeting here, a trip
was made over the proposed route to
bring the highway through Grangeville
and the commissioners were apprised of
the representation made the residents of
the Grangeville highway district when
bonds to the amount of $4,000 were
voted to assist in the construction of
the state highway. After inspecting the
two routes now under consideration be-
tween the prairie and Whitebird, the
commissioners were agreed that the loea-
ton through Grangeville should be
adopted.
