Miss Florence M. Hale, State agent
for rural education, in Maine. at the

greater attractivness Of social life,
but many left so as to give their
children the best possible educational
advantages" added Miss Hale,
whose speech follows in part:
1.-THE welfare of the country peo-
pie must be safeguarded and in
creased in order to keep these mill

Limitation of Air
Forces, Says Baldwin

London, July 5-Prime Minister
Stanley Baldwin, replying to ques-
ton in the House of Commons today.
said the United States had indicated
no willingness to call a conference
for the limitation of air forces.
He added that the objections which
he outlined Monday appealed equally
to a conference limited to few Of
the powers.
The premier's declaration Of Mon
day was:
an my view it would be premature
to hope for the successful issue of
such a conference until a number of
outstanding matters. which remain
unsettled in Europe are settled"

Walter Goyne, the Dog Racer

The death of Walter Goyne left a
great gap in the ranks of dog racers.
'The Going Kid" as he was called
was born in Alaska and was there
fore an American citizen. He took
up dog-racing at an early age and
achieved many victories in Alaska,
one of his most famous being in a
race from Flat to Iditarod and re-
turn, distance of 1874 miles over a
very considerable hill, in one hour,
five minutes and three seconds. a
record that has never been equaled
or approached on that course.
.Goyne won the 1920 Pas Dog Derby
over course of 100 miles in record
time. but was unsuccessful In the
200-mile nonstop race the following
year. He, however, was favorite in
the following year, but in early win
ter went through thin ice and was
drowned together with the best dogs
of his team.-Reece II. Hague in Ad-
venture Magazine.
