BRITISH AIR FORCE
 JOINS CUP CONTEST

CALSHOT AIR STATION England, Sept. 14.-For the first time, Great Britain is sending a team of Royal Air Force pilots this year to compete at Venice, Italy. on September 25 for pos session of the Schneider Cup, em. blematic of speed supremacy in the air, which it lost in 1928 to the United States.
 Air Vice-Marshal Scarlett has been put in command of the Brit ish team, and the Air Ministry has been giving it every support, even to the extent of construct ing seven new seaplanes of the most modern type. Heretofore the British teams have been und- CT civilian direction.
 Squadron Leader l.. H. Slater. 33. of Durban, South Africa. will captain the pilots, who are Fly ing Officer H. M. Schofield, 2S; Flight Lieutenant O. E. Worsley. 29: Flight Lieutenant SIN. Web ster, 27; and Flight Lieutenant S. M KlLkhead, 30. From these will be selected the three pilots who will actually participate in the races.
 Not only the winning of the Schneider Cup. but the very lives of these men depend upon their physical fitness, so they are in strict training. Cigarettes and liquor have been reducted to a minimum, while their sleep has been as regular as if they were a race boat crew instead of bronzed aviators. All have dis tinguished flying records in the Royal Air Force.
 Six of their seaplanes, from which the three racers will be selected after trials in Italy, are being sent to Venice on a royal navy aircraft carrier, acconpan- jed by four destroyers. The ma chimes are being accompanied by 27 mechanics in addition to their pilots.

SMOKER WILL BE PUT 0N WITHIN NEXT FEW
 WEEKS BY TIE 5. \. C.

In conjunction with the Army lads, the s. A. c. have plans, under way whereby the sporting fraternity of Seward will have the opportunity of witnessing at least three boxing bouts. A tentative discussion was held two evenings ago but not until this morning were the signatures of the "pugs' obtained.
 Ennis Neckeferoff. just about the fastest youngster developed around these parts since Walter Cleghorn, "The Cook Inled Kid" was brought out, will take on the Masked Mar vel'', newcomer to Seward and who has had plenty of ring experience, it is said, around Seattle. For reasons of his own he desires to remain in- cognito at hte present time.
 Then there will be Mike Padilio, the Filipino, and Kid" Paul Nekef- eroff, the local boy who would rather box than eat.
 The third event on the evenings card will be between two Army lads, Flash" Uric and TX. O." Harris. The latter bout could be classed as either the main event or a semi-final.
 The date of the smoker has not been decided upon but will be held within next couple of weeks.

LOCAL zOO MANAGER, JACK PR0ssER, TAKES
 UP ANOTHER HOBBY

Jack Prosser, the zoologist of the Seward zoo, has entered into another hobby in addition to the various ones that he has already in hand; this one is one that may interest lovers of dogs, and those interested in racing these little steeds of the north
 Having acquired a apedigreed Rus sian wolf hound that stands B inches high, (the highest of said breed known stands 35 inches) Jack is crossing the wolf hound with one of his Baffin Bay huskies that arrived in Seward from the Arctic on the revenue cutter Bear three years ago, and which are the finest dispositioned dogs that could ever be desired by anyone.
 Another brood dam that he has is Nak-Nak, a three-quarter wolf that he is breeding to the same wolf hound. The said wolf hound is a pure bred dog pedigreed and registered in the New York Kennel Club under the name of Count Leo, his sire and is registered in the same club registry No. 439,565 Prince Markoff- High Line, and the dams name and No. is Princess Yvonne No. 429,312.
 The only thing that is worrying Jack is the fact that owing to the tropical climatic conditions in Seward he will not be able to show his wares in ac- tion owing to the lack of snow in this district, but like Leonard Seppalla, if he has to go to Anchorage and run his dogs in an Anchorage blizzard he will

do so. Seppa1la, Dupuis, St. Goddard and Si Mason, the latter of Tamworth,
 N. H., may think that they have got
 racing dogs when they run at Wolf boro, N H., this winter, and Emil St. Goddard, Earl Brydges and Shorty" Russick may think the same when they run at The Pass, Manitoba, in the annual dog derby, but if any of the above should be running in any of the races that the breed of dogs that Jack contemplates developing, they will not say they must be hypnotized, but they will think that they are string of nine point of 2's going by them, for they will not be able to see string of nine point of 2's going by them at all; they will just hear them. And if anyone is in doubt about the speed of a nine point two ask some one who has had the pleasure of hear ing one go by overseas.

INTERNATIONAL
ROTARY MEETING
c. A. A. NELSON RESORT AT
LUTSEN ON THE NORIH
SHORE SCENE OF FINE MEET
INC ON SATURDAY EVENING.

Several from this city attended
the meeting of Rotary at Lut-
sen Saturday evening at which 'ele-
gates from the clubs in this section
of the state and clubs from Wlnnl-
peg, Kenora, Port Arthur and FORT
William were presenO. president
Bruce of the Winnipeg club and
President Anneke of the Duluth CLUB
presided at the meeting which took
Mace at the handsome hotel OF Y.
A. A. Nelson.
Following an excellent banquet
at which 165 were seated, program
was presented and enjoyed after
which dancing to the music OF
Rockers orchestra of Duluth was
INDUCED in. Landlord Nelson had
done himself proud with the banquet
at which the piece de resistance was
planked, stuffed and garnished lake
trout, with all the other necessary
trimmings, preceded by braised
beef tenderloin.
Several addresses were made and
all through the talks the inter
national feeling of good fellowship
between Canada and this country
was stressed. The sixth object OF
Rotary came in for considerable OF
the talk. All the guests present
were introduced by standing and
giving their name and residence
The Winnipeg guests had made the
trip over the route advertised by
EIy as the most direct auto route
between Winnipeg and Port Arthur
and they stated that the road passed
through one of the most scenic
countries of the continent, but that
the road was not in the best OF
condition just at present but would
be fine within a year or so.
The larger number of the guests
remained over until Sunday and en-
loved the excellent facilities pro-
vided by Mr.. Nelson at his North
Shore resort. The clubs of Duluth,
Cloquet, Two Harbors, Ely, Port
Arthur, Fort William, Winnipeg,
Kenora, st. Paul, Minneapolis, New
ton, Iowa, and several other places

MOTHER SYMPTOMS
PROPHECIES

Two hundred and eighty-siX years
ago-in 1641-an anonymous PAM
phlet appeared in England under the
title of Mother Symptoms Pro-
phecies," and it was naturally, re-
garded as the fanciful writing of
somebody that didn't have much of
anything else to do.
But much of this prophecy has
been fulfilled, giving further proof
that there is very little that is i'm
possible.
The pamphlet, among other things,
contained the following prophecies
in verse:
Carriages without horses shall go,
And accidents fill the world with
woe.
Around the world thoughts shall fly
In the twinkling of an eye.
Waters shall yet more wonders do
Now strange, yet shall be true.
The world upside down shall be,
And gold be found at the root of
a tree.
Through hills man shall ride,
And no horse or ass be at his side.
Under water man shall walk,
Shall ride, shall sleep, shall talk.
In the air men shall De seen
In white, in black, in green.
Iron in the water shall float
AS easily as wooden boat.
Gold shall be found mid stone
In a land that's now unknown.
Fire and water shall wonder do, and
England shall at last admit Jew.
Since that far off time has come
the telegraph, telephone, automo-
bile, airplane; gold was found at the
root of tree in California, and
later in Alaska, the unknown land
man has ridden through tunneled
mountains in steam drawn trains,
and the submarine has been per-
fected, likewise the steel ship, and a
Jew has been lord mayor of London.
These wonders were wholly I'M
known upon the earth an hundred
years ago, and most of the remark
able inventions have come to per-

Now and then we run across soiiie
luguprious lunkhead who sheds plC-
teI, tears at the idea that Uncle
sam should establish training camps
for the purpose Of fitting our boys
for cannon fodder. There isn't bit
of use trying to get the real ldea
into the head of such. Uncle sam
isn't trying to make soldiers out OF
our boys. He is trying to make
stronger, better men; disciplined,
self-respecting, patriotic men out Oh
them. He's a wise old bird; Is
Uncle Sam; and he knows that II his
training camps will perform the

God forbid-when he needs good

any young man an immense amount

If the training camp does nothing
more than to instill in him respect

by being willing to submit to con-
stituted authority that men learn
how to rightly exercise it. 1t isn't
at all intended to make him yearn

THE MEN WOULDN'T HAVE
THOUGHT OF 1T.

The General Federation OF "oh-
en,s Clubs has been fighting UNI
slightly and improperly placed pm
boards for a number of years. ana
&c evidence that it has not Worhea
in vain it now presents llst o.
sixty-hve large corporations al pis
national advertisers, that {
agreed not to deface landscapes WIFI
bilIboards any more.
This list includes several tire com
panies and oil companies, ana su1N
concerns as Armour q Co., ana the
National Biscuit company.
These concerns have quit using
bilIboards with background OF III
teresting scenery because they nave
found that with the public sentiment
worked up against that practlce Ny
the Women's clubs 1t doesn't pay
Because it does not pay to advertise
this way, they will advertise other
WAYS. because all of Lnese concerns
have built their prosperity on d
foundation of advertising.
An incidental result of what these
women's organizations have been 40
ing is the present eagerness Oh Dili-
hoard companies to do away Win
nractices that fiagrantly arouse
public resentment. But the Geheral
Federation feels that it Is not enough
to relv on self-regulation by the bill
board companies, so it Is working not
only for more restrictive legislation
hut for a more vigorous puDlc
sentiment.
And one intelligent thing the
Federation is doing is to ask adVet-
tisers to reeXamine the comparative
values of billboards and other
mediums, to see whether, after ALL
they would not be better off II they
confined their advertising to medium
which do not stir up hostile sentl-
ment which, as it grows, will surely
negative any value there may be III
such advertising mediums.
Says the New York Times, in COM
menting on this work which women
undertook because men never
thought of taking it up: There are
certain signs near villages and towns
which are of direct aid to the pubic.
These include information about
hotels, restaurants, garages and sup
plv stores. 1t is not the desire OF
the opponents of the billboards com
nletely to eliminate this method.
They wish to see it confined to COM
mercial areas, so as not to mar spots
of beauty.
Legislation has proved effective
in curbing the misuse of blllboards.
But legislation is determined by
public opinion. This has been STIR
red in many communities by orgam-
cations such as the women's clubs,
the garden clubs and civic welfare
groups. They have succeeded IN
persuading the local authorities to
prohibit Objectionable signs, and
sometimes have prevailed on adver-
tisers to voluntarily. withdraw them.
"This good work is far from nm
ished. But in view of the progress
made since the campaign was started
a few years ago, the prospects OF
final victory for those who seek to
curtail the unsightly use OF bill
boards are promising"
In this work the Duluth Woman's
club and its predecessors have had
a part that has resulted in consider
able progress in this city, though
even here the problem is as yet far
from solved.-Duluth Herald.
