HEALTH CAMP
HAD RESULTS
Marked Improvement Noted in
Children's Physical Con.
ditiOn

Marked improvement in the gen.
eral physical condition Of campers
was one of the big accomplishments
of the health camp at Camp Grassick
this summer, according to a report
made today by Miss HeleA katen,
supervisor of the camp.
The camp committee Of the state
Tuberculosis association feels that the
camp has more than proven its
worth as a Christmas Seal project
and hopes to increase it's capacity
to approximately 60 children at one
time before the 1929 camp season
opens. Miss Katen said.
AS the children arrived at the
camp they were weighed and in
spected," she said. "The total
weight of boys, Of whom there were
II, was $50 pounds. The % girls
combined weight was 1,424 pounds.
The children were from 2 to 81
pounds underweight upon admission.
Total gains we're 122 pounds, the
boys weighing out at 500 pounds
and the girls at 1,418 pounds. The
greatest gain was made by = girl
who entered 81 pounds underweight
and gained 13 pounds during her
So days visit.

camp were average gains of four

CANADIAN-U. S.
PEACE LAUDED
Relations Cited as Model
Before League Commission.
BY HENRY WOOD
United Press Staff Correspondent


GENEVA, Feb. 23.-United States
Canadian relations were cited as a
model for those of European ma
tionS at a meeting Of the League
of Nations Security Commission
Wednesday.
T. w. Riddle, Canadian commits
Sioner suggested the adoption of the
Canadian United States Customs by
nations that had similar boundary
conditions.
Riddle was discussing the prob
lens of treaties among neighboring
nations as one means of inSuring
against attack by war-like countries.
He suggested the adoption of the
Canadian United States system Of
forming joint commissions of
eminent citizens of both countries
to investigate and report on, or to
make decision regarding each case.
Riddel said Canada was convinced
security best could be advanced by
disarmament rather than by mu-
tual pledges of armed assistance
among nations.
This is our experience on the
Great Lakes" he explained. Canada
also agrees that it is desirable to
perfect the leagues machinery for
speedy, effective action by the coun-
Gil. the governing body and the as
sembly in emergencies But the
league should consider carefully in
solving this problem the possible at
titude of neutral nations that are
not league members"
The United States and Russia are
the two largest non-members of
the league.

M'CABE SWAMpED
Letters Uphold and Blame
Judge for Ruling.

Charles M. McCabe, CraWfords-
vile attorney, whose ruling on a
defense motion abruptly ended
Governor Jackson's trial iii Criminal
Court here Friday, is suffering the
penalty of prominence.
Letters of praise and condenlna-
ton for his ruling in support Of
the defense motion for a directed
verdict on grounds there was no
evidence OF concealment of the
crime charged against the Gov
ernor, have come to McCabe's desk,
the attorney said on a visit here to-
DAY.
Anonymous letters accused him of
membership in the Ku-Klux Klan,
an organization he roundly scored
in open court, while others said his
action was inspired by membership
in the knights of Columbus.
Communications from jurists and
members of the bar throughout the
State, he said, we're unanimous in
pronouncing his action correct, in
view Of the law and the evidence.

Grating board. some nails and
screws. a can Of glue, several balls
of chalkline, and enough fabric to
replace the torn wing covering.
We borrowed butcher knife, a
needle and thread, and an ak from
the rancher, and set in to make the
Canuck airWorthy once more. We
hewed the Grating down roughly to
size. cut it into proper lengths with
an old hackSaw blade from our tool
kit, and finished it off with the
butcher knife.
In short tine we had constructed
a second box splice similar to the
one at Pensacola, but a few feet
farther out on the spar.
We had just enough dope to cover
the splice, so the fabric in the outer
bay was left undoped; and after we
had sewed up the longer rents
caused by the sagebrush, We were
once more ready to take the air.
1t was too near the fifteenth of
March to continue West, so we de-
cided to take the Canuck back to
San Antonio. where we would finish
off the repairs and Klink would con-
tinue on to California alone.

was broken propeller, although
from that time on it always carried
left rudder.
We wired for a new propeller and
a can Of dope from Houston ana in
few days we're hedgehopping the
mountain tops in true Canuck
fashion on our way West.
A Canuck, or J. N. &C, is nothing
more or less than a Canadian
Jenny and while it is lighter and
performs little better than a
Jenny, it is subject to the same
characteristic of being able to just
miss most everything II passes over.
We passed over the Rio Grande
and cut through corner of Mex
leo, then landed on one Of the Army
emergency fields at Pumpville and
induced the officer in charge to sell
us enough gasoline to continue our
flight.
Dusk overlook us near MaXon,
Texas, and we landed between the
cactus and Spanish dagger west of
the town, which consisted Of a
section house and three old box
cars of the type used throughout
the Southwest for housing the
Mexican section hands
The section boss was living alone
He was soon to be relieved and
stationed in some more populated
locality.
We spent the night with him and
in the morning cleared a runway
for the ship. MaXon was quite a
distance above sea Level and as the
air was less dense. an airplane re-
quired longer distance to take
off in.
There was a small mountain on
the east end of the field and the
land sloped upward toward the
west. We worked unit. midday
cutting sagebrush and cactus. There
was a light breeze from the west
and the air was hot and rough.
After using three-quarters Of the
runway the Canuck rose about four
feet above the ground but stopped
there; and when the end Of the
runway was passed the wings and
landing gear scraped along on the
sagebruSh.

CHAPTER <

TINE next day conditions were
l. ideal but Klink wanted to go
to a dance that evening, and the
day after, the wind was blowing
from the opposite direction.
Our remaining time was passing
rapidly and we were both anxious
to get to California before my re-
turn to Brooks Field.
If we could get the plane to
larger field six miles south of Camp
Wood we would have room to take
off with a full load Of gasoline.
One of the town streets was wide
enough to take-off from, provided
1 could get forty-four foot wing
between two telephone poles forty
six feet apart and brush through a
few branches on each side Of the
road later on.
We pushe> the ship over to the
middle of the street and attempted
to take-off. The poles were about
fifty feet ahead and just before
passing between them there was a
rough spot in the street.
One of the wheels got in rut
and I missed by three inches of the
right wing tip. The pole swung the
plane around and the nose crashed
through the wall Of a hardware
store, knocking pots, pans and pitch
forks all over the interior.
The merchant and his son thought
that an earthquake was in progress
and came running out into the
street.
He was highly pleased to find
an airplane halfway into his place
of business and not only refused
to accept any thing for damages,
but would not even allow us to have
the wall repaired.
He said the advertising value was
much more than the destruction.
