Crewdson flew over this city Monday afternoon looking for a place to light, but finding nothing here to his liking he flew on to Ogden and found an aviation field as if made to order. From this field he made flights carrying passengers during Tuesday people from this and other places mot ored down on both days and the pilot was not lacking for passengers. O. Leslie claims that he got the prize flight of all. He was in the machine when it flew to Ashdown. Tuesday af ternoon, encircling the city at an alti- tude of about mile and scattering circulars. Owing to air currents being mislldged the circulars went wide of the mark. MT. Leslie said he could identify only two buildings, the oil mill and the courthouse. The rest of the town looked like checkerboard and the streets like marks on a map. All who went up were delighted with the experience. The machine was Curtis biplane with 90 horsepower motor.
 Many women made the flight, among them being Miss Martha Pierce, Mrs. Fred Gray. Mrs. Roy Budd and Mrs E. D. Velvin. Miss Martha says that she won't be contented now even with an automobile, that she must have a flying machine

Hot Springs, April 15.-The election of Governor Brough and Judge E. P Toney of Lake Village to important offices and the rap taken by Vice President Thomas R. Marshall at Gov ernor Allen of Kansas, constituted two of the outstanding features of the final session of the United States Good Roads Association here today

It was the first time in the eight years history of the Un- ited States Good Roads Association that any man, except the governor of a state, was selected as vice president of that body and Judge Toney was given that honor in recognition of his work in the interest of good roads.
 Vice President Speaks.
 Vice President Marshall did not mention Governor Aliens name, and his reference to the case of Robert Hill, the negro whom Governor Allen declined to permit to come back to Arkansas by refusing to honor Gov ernor Broughs requisition, came while he was addressing the convention on the Gospel of Good Roads" He said: Good roads are needed for in the future if the governor of Arkansas wants a prisoner and they won't give him up, Governor Brough can get into an automobile and go and get him, and if I were governor of Arkansas I would set aside section of the state as an asylum for the criminals of Kansas. :"
 Vice President Marshall was com pelled to stop speaking, when his au- dience, the largest oI the convention, numbering more than 5000 persons, arose and cheered him for several min- uteS.
 'I do not know whether I have been preaching much religion since 1 started to address you continued the vice president, ''and I do not think there is much religion in what I have just said Vice President Marshall caused much laughter when he said he was not a great man and that, as vice president, he was not supposed to have an opinion of his own II have been placed in the midst of the nigh ty, he declared, referring to the Un- ited States Senate, and have gone to sleep while the might cavorted."
 His Gospel of Good Roads" was contained in the statement that he did not like to refer to God as Nv Next Door Neighbol but as one who was neighborly, and that he believed God desired men and women to be nei2hborly, declaring that the men en- gagged in furthering good roads con struction, who made it possible for the people of one section to get into quicker communication with the resi- dents of other localities, thereby estab- lished better understanding and rela- tionship, were truly the sons Of God. ;
