whether the people want a 3-cent

seem sound.

ia We have received the first copy
of Henry Ford's new paper "The
Dearborn Independent which
is unlike any other paper we
have read. 1t carries no adver-
tising and has a clean and whole
some line Of editorial and fiction.
Mr.. FOrd's own page is espically
interesting, and we take the lib

from it which we all knew are
true even tho we don't practice
them as he does---.-

anything about is to help a man
to the place where he will never
need it.

AMERICAN PLANE
 CARRIES AID TO
 FLOODED VILLAGE

BROWNSVILLE, Texas, Oct. 3. - While officials in Mexico City recently were denying published reports that an order had been issued to federal troops to fire upon American airplanes crossing the Mexican border, an Amer ican plane, answering an appeal of the authorities of Reynosa, Mexico, SO miles below the border, here, flew over the town and dropped one thou sand bags needed to strengthen threat ened levees with sand bags. This be- came known today when Lieutenant Colonel Mauel Bernea, commander of the Matomoros district, expressed his thanks for the assistance to Brigadier General F. c. Marshall, Brownsville district commander, at a dinner Siven in honor of the American officer at Matamoros.
 Reynosa was entirely surrounded by flood waters from the overfloving Rio Grande and help was needed quickly to keep intact the levees protecting the town, Colonel Bernea said. American military authorities sent the airplane with the bags from McAllen. Texas. The Mexican national railroad service, which has been suspended for two weeks, is still out of commission be- tween Matomoros and Monterey, be- cause of backwaters in the vicinity of Reynosa. Much Mexican territory, 25 to 30 miles below Brownsville, still is inundated.

HOLDS DISTANCE AIR RECORD

Bulletin National Geographic Society,"
 Amazing as are the recent flights of airplanes across the Atlantic, aviators must fly farther and do it more ire quently to warrant a literal appella- ton of "bird men," There is the golden blower. for instance, which summers in the Arctic and winters in Argentina.
 This species nests along the Arctic coast of North America, and as soon as the young are old enough to care for themselves fall migration is begun by a trip to the Labrador coast. where the blower fattens for several weeks on the abundant native fruits. A short trip across the Gulf of St. Lawrence brings it to Nova Scotia, the starting point for it's extraordinary ocean flight due south to the coast of South Amer ica-
 The golden blower takes a straight course across the ocean, and if the weather is propitious makes the whole 2,40o miles without pause or rest. But if tempests arise, it may be blown out of it's course to the New England coast and start anew on the advent of fair weather; or it may rest for a few days at the Bermudas, one-third of the way along it's course, or at the nearest of the Lesser Antilles, still 500 miles from the mainland of South America. These, however, are emer- gency stopovers, to be resorted to only in case of storms. Having accom- plished it's ocean voyage, it passes across eastern South America to it's winter home in Argentina.
 After a six months vacation here. the blower finds it's way back to the Arctic by an entirely different route. It travels along northwestern South America and the Gulf of Mexico reaching the United States along the coasts of Louisiana and Texas. Thence it moves slowly up the Mississippi val ley and by early June is again at the nesting site on the Arctic coast. Its round trip has taken the form of ar enormous ellipse, with a minor axis o! two thousand miles and major axis of eight thousand miles, from Arcti. America to Argentina.

 Harry Williams, the brother, ex- pressed the same desire. They were in court on a charge of being drug addicts. Virgil said he needed about ten grains of opiate a day and had been procuring that amount from a local physician.
 Tt is the physician who encourages these boys in their pernicious habit that should be in this court instead of these boys" was the opinion ex- pressed by James E. Nelson, assistan city counselor who was prosecuting the cases.
 Upon their promise to get out of thu city immediately. Judge Thomas per mitted the boys to go.

GERMAN MENACE TO
 AMERICAN BUSINESS
 IS REMOVED BY WAR
TRepubIican A. p. Leased Wirel

KANSAS CITY, Mo, Oct. 3.-The greatest menace to American business German industrial invasion-was re- moved and it's recurrence made inn possible by the great war, declared A. Mitchell Palmer, United States att torney, speaking before the Missouri State Bar association today
 As alien property custodian said MT. Palmer, T took over three quarters of billion dollars of German prop erty in the United States. A consid- erable portion of this had been in- vested in America by interests that were either subsidized by the German government or the great banks of Ger many"
 Mentioning some of the war time in cidents that occurred during his ten ure as property custodian, MT. Palmer related the following one:
 "A school teacher in Colorado died during the war and bequeathed s10,000 to General von Hindenburg, but in- stead of following the usual channels, we converted her gift into shrapnel and powder and delivered it to the German generals home address by well directed shots from American batteries

TIGERS CRAWL WITHIN
 HALF CAME OF ANGELS
 BY WINNING ] IN 4

While baseball interest is largely centered in the worlds series grapple, the pennant fight being waged in Los Angeles between the Vernon and Los Angeles teams of the Pacific Coast league is not without it's local ad- herents
 Vernon by winning yesterday. climbed within a half game of the leading Angels and with but three games yet to be played, looms as a dangerous opponent for Killefer's men. It was the third victory in four starts for Essick and his crew.
 With the opening of the final series of the season in Los Angeles Wedes- day, Vernon faced the almost insur- mountable task of taking five games in seven to cop the league pennant from the Angels A double header was played on the opening day, the teams getting an even break.
 Thursday, the Tigers made it two in three by nosing out a to ? victory, notwithstanding the fact that they were out-hit
 Again Friday, the Angels had a good leading when it came to clubbing. but they fielded in a loose manner and the Tigers made the best of their six clouts.. Killefer's men garnered 10 hits, which they turned into three runs.
 To remain in first position, the Angels must win two of the remaining three games, which would give them a. lead of one and one-half games at the close or the season. If, on the other hand, the Tigers win two of the re- maining three games, they will nose out Los Angeles by a half f-game margin.
 Far more is at stake in this Coast league pennant fight than any here tofore played because of the fact that the flag winner is to meet the St Paul club. American Association champions, in series of games to de eide the minor league championship of the country.
