Dixon las yet made was from Lille France. t" Cairo, Egypt. via Italy, Austria, Greece, Turkey and Asia Minor, es- ta plishing a record of 5S flying hours for the entire trip to Cairo. The whole squadron, on it's arrival in Greece, was entertained by the king, and passed in review before General
 Salrnond, K. c. M. G. The same evening, royal banquet was given to the daring flyers, and the next day
 they left for Cairo, arriving at their destination July 4th.
 The 58th Squadron R. A. F. had the distinction of being the first to accomplish such a long journey Because of his ability as an air pilot Lieut.. Dixon was selected to be one of a party to try the England to India flight. Reports up to date are
 that the flyers are in Constantinople. The route to be followed is from London to Lille, France; from Lille to Monte Carlo; from Monte Carlo to Vienna; from Vienna over the Bal kan countries to Salonil1a; from Sa- 1onika- to COnstantinople to the Suez Canal and follow the Red Sea across ] the Indian ocean to Bombay

LEAGUE DISCUSSED AT SUNDAY SERVICE Open Forum at Methodist Church
 Takes Up Big Topic Of Day
 DR. HILL APPROVES OF IT
While Morgan Morgans, Methodist Church PaIdshioner, Argues Rejec-
 tiOn in its Entirety--Rev. w. F.. Cook Gives His Views On Subject.

An animated and lively discus sion on the League of Nations fol- lowed the address of Rev Warren F. Cook at the service in the Trinity Methodist church last evening, in which several strong points both for and against the pact were brought out and ably argued by the number of parishioners who took part. The open forum was one of the most suc- ceSsful in the church series.
 People in Three Groups.
 In his general summary of the league, Rev. Cook divided the popu- latiOn of the country, taking an ac- tive interest in the treaty, into three separate groups, namely: l. Those who are in favor of it's complete re- jection as an un-Am erican document and as one favoring the countries ot Europe to too great an extent; 2 Those who would partially accept il with some reservations; 3. Those who want it's acceptance in it's en- tirety with the idea that in the flu. ture arrangements can te made whereby it can be amended in muct the same way as the constitution o1 the United States. The points fol and against the league were present ed and entrusted and the views o1 President Wilson and his opponents were given.
 Dr. Hill Favors Terms.
 Chief among those who took part in the discussion were Rev. Dr. c W. c. Hill, pastor of the South Con" gregational church, WEo argued fol it's acceptance in it's entirety a.nd Morgan Morgans who was in favor o1 it's rejection as a whole. The Shan tuns problem was discussed pro and con during their talks.
 At the church meeting next Sun day evening the pastor will talk or the compulsory military training fol all young men 19 years of age and after a discussion of the points fcl and against the movement will turn the meeting over to the congregation for an open forum.

4 Chance to Live---By Zoe Beckley

"One out of every five kids in the
school is actually starving They fall
asleep at their desks. They're so dull
they can't learn. They catch every
sickness that comes along, and by
and by they break down morally as
we'll as physically-and then it's good
night! Them for the reform school,
and who's to blame? The men who
pay their fathers stingy wages. That
soap-box speaker has figures to prove
that capital could pay labor exactly
twice what it does pay, and still make
a fat profit.
I'm dead sick of the whole thing,
Anne! I'd like to go do the same
thing as those east side woman who
pushed over the carts and trampled
the stuff in the cutters. If enough
people would rebel and make trouble
something would be done, I'll bet you.
Out of 100000 people in New York
City read this too, in the paper
100000 of them live in tenements
like us. If they'd get up and smash

get somewhere. 1t isn't right"
Bernie got up, thrust his hands into
his poverty-lined pockets and began
to stride the floor. Watching him
thoughtfully, Annie noticed how shah
