Dear Advertiser Friends:

Dear Advertiser Friends:
I've Quit, long ago. thinking Of you
as readers. TO me now YOU arc in
deed true friends. I've had a great and
longing desire lately TO try and write
one more composition ike we used to
do at Rosedalc on the subject,
"Fricnds". I'm too weak and wobbly
though, just nov.
Thursday morning | felt unusually
well: got up bright and early and kept
singing

And sunny as can be;
Oar Heavenly Father made it,

BY eleven o'clock, fast time mark
You, had tho dinner nearly prepared

school chaps who would come in as
hungry as bears. The pot was boiling,
the potatoes were baking and the Gus

| was to dine abroad that day At
clcvcn-thirty a Jolly party OF four
we're on their way to the hoSpiablc
home of Mr.. J. II. Power. where such
a pleasant day was spent with Aunt
Mary and the daughter of the house,
Miss Ora. AT four-thirty We were at
home again and had developed a sud
den and awful cold. At five o'clock.
was in bed with a bursting headache
and there was running and racing at
our house. The hot water bottle was
brought into action. a lapactic pill was
swallowed, the fumes of camphor and
Nick'S filled the air. and the patient
lay and groancd-my medical knOwl-
edge had been, by that time, exhaust
cd The only way I Guild get my breath
was sitting up in bed and inhaling
Vick's. Didn't I make statement
like this in describing recent trip:

Let me take it back quickly. That was
Just preliminary to what lay hold Of
me Thursday afternoon at four-thrty!

| wish TO thank each and everyone
for the kind expressions have heard
regarding my recent wonderful trip.
ESpccally do appreciate the words Of
cOmmcndaiOn Of my old friend w. r..

OF letters in The Advertiser have given
much pleasure He gave me a bit Of
historical interest that pass on TO

preservation Of Mt, Vernon was taken
at Liberty Springs Presbyterian

ing made by Miss Cunningham, who
was member there at that time.
The postal from former Laurcns
county ncighbor now in Lexington, \.
c., gave me much pleasure. He had
been over the same route in the capt.
tai, but admitted he had not seen half
as much as the old lady!
Even in the city Of Gotham, the Iau-
rcnS Advertiser was looked for. Every
Friday morning the query was phoncd,

Aerial Exploration Costly.
But aerial exploration is not to be lightly un-
dertaken There Is the cost of airpanes hangers
landing places and maintenance of personnel Ex-
ploration is stationary thing at times, and bases
must be erected. 1t is one thing to fly an
untrodden region and quite another to explore 1t
Science demands much knowledge from the modern
explorer. Possibly a nation. nations, could
only furnish the necessary means to provide the
material for the aerial highway and stations which
are indispensable to satisfactory exploration in
remote quarters of the earth. Hundreds of miles
of Arabia which no westerner has have been
flown over by European officers during the war;

would lead to the linking up of the old caravan
routes by tracking successive GASES; and then
from the beaten paths. the wastes adjoining would
be searched for historic ruins
The fact remains that the aerial pioneer will be
the first in many virgin fields of science and his
tory, and will in his quests find the wine of adj
venture in bumper draughts
This Strand Magazine writer is right. These un-
explored regions of the earth are full of fascina-
ton for the explorer. For example, take the head
waters of the Amazon and Orinoco-a region of
mystery that mas baffied every explorer from the
conQuistadores down to Theodore Roosevelt The
airman. armed with wireless quinine pills and f1y
screen, ought to succeed in this centures-old
quest Other explorers have died of fever because
they had no Qunine succumbed to the RAPIDS of
the rivers, got lost because they had wireless
had been infected and died from the hites of in
sects.
Undoubtedly there is much of Importance to the
world to be gained by thorough exploration of this
region. And by way of mystery there is the legend
of the White Indians. the Gcaharva of the upper
basins. The Spanish explorers of 1850 mentioned
them an Englishman in 1853 and Frenchman in
1886 reported them; and others have been told
about them by traders and Indians
The Brazilian, Venezuelan and Colombian gov
ernn,ents have done little In exploring this vast
region which Is full of unknown riches.

FUEL BOARD FOR
NATION PROPOSED
GOVERNORS CONFERENCE Is IN
FAVOR OF EQUITABLE DIS
TRIBUTION OF COAL.
Agree That Country Faces Serious
Coal Shortage and That Only the
Utmost Conservation Will Pre-
vent Suffering of People.

Chicago.-GOvernOrS of seven soft
coal producing states at conference
here on November 30, agreed that the
state governments should take "all
possible" steps to obtain the produc-
ton of coal and recommended to the
federal government that a complete
fuel administration with an admins
TRAITOR for each state recommended by
the government be perfected immedi-
ately. The state executives also re-
qpested uniform and rigid regulations
in all states.
The governors conference was call
ed by Governor Frederick D. Gardner
of Missouri.
Attending the conference were Gov
ernors F. o. Lowden of Illinois, James
z. Goodrich Of Indiana, w. L. Hard
ing of Iowa, Gardner of Missouri,
Robertson of Oklahoma, A. H. Roberts
of Tennessee and Attorney General
r. J. Hopkins of Kansas, representing
Governor Henry ]. Allen.
The state executives were in agree
ment that their states faced a serious
shortage of coal and that only the ut
most conservation of fuel and the most
rigidly supervised distribution would
prevent suffering of the people ard
disaster to industry.
The governors were unanimous that
the fuel administration organization
should be perfected to provide more
absolute charge of coal reserves and
distribution through state administra-
tors named by the state executives
themselves. The sessions were exec
utive and it was not until late in the
afternoon that the conference broke up
and issued a public statement.

REPORT ON RELIEF WORK.
Large Share of Congressional Appro-
priation to be Returned.

New YOrk.-The American relief
administration will return to the Unit
ed States Government approximately
$S8,750,000 of the $1OO,00OO0O appro-
priated by congress for relief in Eu-
rope, according to the preliminary re-
port of Herbert Hoover on the work
of he administration made public
Sunday. The money will be returned
in the form of treasury notes from the
various European governments who
shared in the relief work.
The remainder of the fund was ex-
pended for supplies which were "do-
mated on a charitable basis, for which
there will be no reimbursement"
Because of the foreign exchange
situation in Europe, Mr.. Hoover said,
1t was impossible at present to lob
tain reimbursement in cash."
