MISS SEABURC
MAKESADDRESS
AT Y. W. C.. A

After a long absence Miss Anna
Seaburg, executive secretary of the Y.
w. G. A. national organization, arrived
in Douglas yesterday Miss Seaburg's
first visit here was Ii years ago when
the first Y. W. G. A. was organized
here. She is en- route to the national
convention in Sacramento which will
be held April 1920.
The purpose of Miss Seaburg's visit
here was to discuss with the member
ship of this association the alternate
personal basis on which this organiza-
ton will make final vote at their
annual meeting in April.
A tea honoring Miss Seaburg was
held at the Y w. G. A. rooms yeSter-
day and large group of members was
present.
AS an introduction to her talk Miss
Seaburg mentioned the fact of her
visit here years ago and told of the
world Y. w. G. A. conference which
will meet in Budapest in June for the
first time since the war The last
meeting was at Stockholm in May OF
1914. She told then, of the various
ways by which these national associa-
tions may belong to the worlds Y. w.
G. A.
Miss Seaburg said that the church
basis by which the local Y. W.. G. A.
might become a world member was by
church membership The personal
basis assures membership in this rela-
ticn by including the clause in pur-
pose ITO lead girls and women in
numbers to church"
She then asked the question: what
makes an association choose one basis
rather than another? Is one inher-
emily better than the other?p And
answered it by saying, Either basis
assures relation and purpose, and the
selection would depend upon the con-
ditions in any country, which would
make it best for carrying out the ulti-
mate purpose"
The next question of vital interest
was what ought community ex-
pect from a Y. w. c. A. on a personal
basis?" and answered it, Greater
richness to it's fellowship; greater div
ersity in its membership; understand
ing, good WILL sympathetic attitude
and growing tolerance; and finally, an
increase in spiritual vitality assured
because of attention to activities test
ed by purpose" Miss Seaburg said,
Activities of an association are meas
ured by results and not members"
Today Miss Seaburg leaves for Bis
bee where she will conduct a similar
meeting.

TWO OF PARTY
IN MONOPLANE
WERE PILOTS
ROhlfs and Springer, Seas
Oned FIiers, Had Navi-
gated Air for Years

Sterling Rohlfs, owner and pilot OF
the plane that crashed at Toluca,
was an experienced tlier and some
months ago had flown the same
ship from Long Island, New York,
directly to Douglas with but two
stops He had landed on the army
field at Camp Jones here several
times after night fall without landing
lights except the lights of Douglas
and Of the camp.
| RohlfS was millionaire cattleman
and sportsman. He had cattle inter-
ests at Yermigo, N. NJ The ship the
party were flying. was a Fairchild
| monoplane, almost new, a fine, stable
type of plane very similar to the
Ryan monoplane used by Lindbergh
Wallace Springer, the third member
of the party, was a cattleman OF
Cimmarron. N. M. He was a member
of the United States army aviation
service during the late war and was
credited with being a very efficient
pilot.
Rohlfs had been flying along the
border for months, making trips east
cllO OcCh dEdA14J 4eIA1Sl44A6 1C5liAcA1J oe
the port here. He was greatly In
| terested in securing the lifting OF
the ban on flying into Mexico and
was one Of the foremost individuals
in the work OF securing the voiding
of the ban. He took the Fairchild
plane south Immediately upon secur-
ing permission, from the government
SO that the present i'll fated trip
is the second which Rohlfs had taken
into Mexico with his monoplane.
| This trip had been arranged as
pleasure trip and the party formed
only incidentally represented as it
did the leading MeXican-American
| legal connections and two representa-
tives of the cattle industry that works
on both sides of the border.
The party took off from the army
parade ground here on March 2z al
$3.50 p. m. on their way south. MI
King at that time granted an inter-
view and discussed the trip in some
detail. He explained that the trir
was a sort of relaxation and pleasure
/ launt and evidenced great pleasure
/ in the venture. Rohlfs and Springer
had flown over from Tucson TO pick
/ I'D MI. hlIlS IlClC d1lu OlAO 04Ak
remained here only long enough fol
Rolllfs to chat a bit with army
officers at the camp and for Mr.
King to stow his luggage aboard.
| From here the ship was flown
straight to Nogales and on the next
morning, Friday, March %, the party
cleared the port and sailed south
making stops at Mazatlan, Tepic and
! Guadalajara. Their first landing was
made at Cajeme. No trouble with
| the ship or with flying conditions
! had been reported and it was felt
certain here yesterday that some
unusual explanation OF the accident
] would be forthcoming as army flierS
and others here who knew the mem
berS of the party expressed them
selves as certain that the party would
not have continued it there had been
any known weakness in the plane
and the fact that two of the three
men Of the party were seasoned pilots
and navigators added to the specula-
! ton over the accident.

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES J. MONTAGUE
COOKING nv RAnIn

COOA1NO DY 6AO1O
The ham was on to boil I guess
About half an hour
When zip! there came an S. 0. S.
And off went all the power
From six fifteen till half past nine,
The wires would only splutter
And SO that night we had 70 dine
On bread and cheese and butter.
The eggs were frying in the pan,
We shifted their rare aroma
When "Pow!" some amateur began
To call up Oklahoma.
We stood about them in despair
AS wildly they gyrated
But when he had got off the air
They'd all evaporated.
We viewed the bubbling apple sauce
With keen anticipation
And then a number came across
From some strange Cuban station.
We tried to get it plain and clear
But there was nothing doing,
And apple sauce tastes kind of queer
Unless you keep it Stewing.
OF fish and chicken, chops and steaks
We've made appalling messes
Because of sundry current breaks
And sudden S. o. SIS.
And we, as more distrait we grow,
Begin to wonder whether
The arts, cuisine and radio
Will work so well together!
