In plotting the actions of a
trio of crooks who are preying
on the mountaineers' fears of
the unknown, the authors have
laid their pigments on alto
gether too thickly. 1t is ex-
ecrable taste to clothe a de-
PRAYED character in Messianic
robes, to point his beard and
hair in replica of standard por-
traits and to absolve any further
doubt as to who is being inn
personated, by equipping the
character with a crooked staff
and bleating eve.
This, Of course, is q matter
Of costuning that can be al-
tered at no sacrifice Of interest.

UNDERTAKING

The people of Central Minnesota are greatly
interested in the attempt to be made as soon as
weather conditions are favorable of an airplane
flight from New York to Paris

a son of the late Congressman Lindbergh of this
district has the record for flight from San Diego,

the one most likely to complete this hazardous un-
dertaking. 49,.
The other plane entrants in the contest will
carry two passengers but Lnibergh will
fly alone. He took up aeronautics about five years
ago. During his experience as fiier his courage
has been thoroughly tested because of two forced
parachute landings to save his life from hazardous
situations.
With favorable conditions it will take about 40
cash prize of $25, 900 and enduring fame.
Mr.. Lindbergh arrived in New York ten days
ago and has been the centre of an admiring throng
continually, but he has kept his head.
The time will undoubtedly come when those in
