Plan Air Line to Alaska.

Washington The senate military
committee has voted to recommend an
additional appropriation of $15,0O0,O 600
for army aircraft construction in or
der that plans of the air service to es-
tablish routes to Panama, Alaska, and
even to Asia, may be carried out.
Action by the committee followed
the appearance of Secretary Baker and
Brigadier General Mitchell of the air
service to explain the army's plans.
General Mitchell said three-day
flight to Alaska across Canada would
be attempted this winter. If cold
weather proves successful, he added, a
regular route to Alaska would be es-
tablished, to be followed probably by
route to Asia, with only 21-mile
water span to be crossed. The Panama
route, he said, would be via Florida
and Cuba, and both routes should be
developed, he added, for military
reasons.

Harmony.

II is a beautiful and blessed world
we live in. The flowers blossom in
obedience to the same law that keeps
the stars in their places. Each bird
song is an echo of the universal har-
mony. 1t is humanity which thrusts
discords, and false and EARRING notes
into the days. We go out into the
beautiful morning carrying our useless
loads Of frets and worries. our left
over resentments and our faithless
fears. The sunshine assures us that the
world is still moving safely in its APP
pointed course and God has not for
gotten us; the birds lift their cheering
notes Of rejoicing that they have found
food for the day, but we lift complain
ing voices because we have not found
provisions for years to come. Our
moody spirits and EARRING tempers
hurt the love on earth and In heaven.
But they hurt our own souls most Of
all. for they put us out OF tune with
the music Of the universe.

The first days fight in the great
contest, which is limited to military
aviators, and which is for the purpose
of testing the reliability of the planes
and stimulating interest in recruiting
for the air service, was married by
eight accidents, in which three of the
flyers were killed and one injured.
Later two others met fatal accidents.
All of the entrants in the race are
Americans except two, most of whom
saw active service in the war.
Most Of the American entries are
equipped with the famous Liberty
motor and the race will afford good
opportunity to test its qualities against
the best types of foreign makes.
Ten different types of machines are
represented in the entries and some of
them had seen active service on the
battle front Three of the planes en-
tered are German Fokker machines,
captured almost intact on the western
front. French, British and Italian
machines also are entered
Under the rules of the contest there
is to be no flying between sunset and
sunrise; on Sundays or in bad wealth
er - each contestant will be required

the 20 intermediate stops. Ayiators
remaining more than 4S hours at one
station, unless held there by the
weather, are to be disqualified. No

landings.
The route is approximately 200
miles in length one way. The stations
where stops are to be made include !:
Chicago and Rock Island, ILL.,; Des
Moines, Ia; Omaha, st. Paul, North
Platte and Sidney, Neb., and Chey-
enne, Wyo. 1t is thought about two

this year of 2,9OO,511,OO bushels.

value. Blight, scab and black rust,
together with minor ILLS, brought the
good early prospects for spring wheat
