VALUE OF COMMUNITY ACTION

"One touch of Nature make world kin was pressed yesterday under the impulse of touch of tender sentiment when practically every citizen of Seward who was able do gathered the site of the cemetery and there expressed their remembrance of those who have gone before by clearing dedcatng plot of ground
 The common purpose served to attract mankind from purely selfish pursuits and allow of expression of the ties of fellowship which bind the community
 The spirit in which everyone plunged into the big task of cutting pilng and burning the great logs and ing the tangled underbrsh bespoke the sincerity of those who wished to give expression of their appreciation of the valiant men and women who were numbered among those who gave their all for the nation
 Such occasions offer opportunity for the expression of the community spirit which goes far toward speed ing up progress and binds the integral parts of society into valuable whole.

PARIS, May 31. (P-While in Paris, Captain Charles A. Lindbergh, the American youth who showed the world how to fly from New York to Paris alone, paid his first Paris call to the mother Of Captain Nunge5ser, missing transatlantic flyer. Follow ing that, he called his mother, in De- troit Michigan over the long distance telephone which was the first France to America call in all history. Dur
 ing the conversation Mrs. Lindbergh expressed her happiness over her boys success and safety. When the youthful hero met Mme. Nungesser she hugged him as she would her own, and told him how glad she was that he had landed safely. France has gone crazy over the young flyer acclaiming him as the worlds hero.

PARIS, May 31 (P)--Wearing his usual wide grin, he was seemingly innocent of the fact that the whole world was at his feet awaiting to acclaim him as hero.
 Parisian crowds thronged the bassy and cheered the American for streets in front of the American En. hours. He drew from Statesmen, the Press and all Nations, laudatory con- ment. Every minute there were new patches of telegram brought to theIm- bassy for the noted guest Slim Lindbergh." Germany, Italy, Sweden and practically every nation in it's papers and thru its diplomats con- gratulated the man of the Lour. Ar irving without cloths except his av- iation clothes young Lindbergh was taken in hand by Myron T. Herrick the American Ambassador to France.
 He was housed at the American Embassy During a brief interview with newspaper men he admitted he grew tired during the flight over the ocean but said he was not exhausted when the trip was over He told a humorous story of sweeping down close to fishing smack off the coast of Ireland when he was doubtful of his position and the scare which he threw into the fishermen although it was not intentional. He continued thru the darkness and finally saw search lights of the French flying field. Upon his arrival at the field there e1sued, he declared, the most hazardous part of his journey when 180,O00 wild Frenchmen rushed over the field at his plane to greet him He said he was terrified by the sea of people running toward him. He remembered little after that until he found himself in Ambassador Her. rick's home. He laughed as he fin ished his story and said he didn't see any sense in flying back. A move was started in Congress yesterday to award the youth with Compression al Medal Of Honor, the highest award of the United States.

Moles Threatening Golfers Domain
Attacked With Poisons and Trapping

The lowly mole, long a nuisance
threatening the golfers domain. Re-
quests as to best methods of elimi-
mating the animal duffer come fire.
quently to Government mole experts,
according to Pames Silver, mole and
rat specialist.
Moles seek golf courses for two
main reasons. There is little plow.
ing there. so they are rarely dis
turbed. And they thrive on the rich
soil. easy to tunnel through and
highly productive of juicy angle
worms, favorite mole food.
One golf course in Indiana is so
clogged with moles that Government
experts are using it as an experiment
station. It's fine black loam seems to
appeal to the moles' discriminating
taste.
Golf authorities have been trying
three chief methods of control: Poi
soning, trapping and the use of repel
lents. Poisoning has proved disap-
pointing. If applied in the form of
strychnine. arsenic or barium carbo-
nate on vegetable bait, it produces
poor results because the mole is
carnivorous.
Trapping is slightly more effective.
However. traps are bulky and clog
up the golf course. Moreover, most
traps must be placed in the mole
runway where the mole will not
touch them. He is extremely sensi-
tive to anything foreign in his bur-
row
One type of trap works somewhat
better than the others because it is
not placed in the runway but ex-
tends around It. The runway's top
is depressed an the trigger of the
