More than $4,000 men, women and

body rested in the rotunda of the mag

monument to the man who has now
taken high place in the history of the
state and nation. From noon until
late in the evening the people filed by

Never before in the middle west has
there been such an outpouring for

The Long Wait at Burlington

Included in my list of acquain-
tances is gentleman who promotes
sporting events. Originally he pro-
noted foot-races. later he conducted
balloon ascensions and parachute
drops at county fairs and carnivals.
/ Still later, keeping abreast of the
march of progress. he turned aviator
himself and bought an early model
airplane with which, in the period
when flying was more of a novelty
than it is at present, he gave exhibit
tionS aloft.
The members of a Catholic con-
gregation in a suburb of New York
city were striving to raise funds for
a new rectory. In pursuance of this
ambition they rented an old driving
park and gave fair which lasted
for an entire week. For the crown
ing attraction on the final afternoon
my friend was engaged to make a
flight.

similar occasions in other parts of
the country. He spared for 1ime in
the hope that darkness would come

He tinkered with his engine. He
fiddled with the plane. He unscrewed
this bolt and he screwed up that

The assembled crowd, which was
large, grew impatient over the delay.
Finally the parish priest, who was
acting as master of ceremonies, felt
it incumbent upon himself to urge
that the hired entertainer make
good on his contract. He approached
the aeronaut and to him he said:
my son, can't you go ahead and
give US the exhibition you promised
US and for which we already have
paid you in advance? These people
have already been waiting more than
an hour and a half for you to go
up"
Father" said my friend, there's
a bunch of folks out in Burlington,
Iowa, that have been waiting more'n
eighteen months for me to go up"
