SHANK BREAKS
FLIGHT RECORD
Morgan Boy Was in the Air Con-
tinuOusly for IA Hours, 20
Minutes, for Record.

Gene Shank, the law student avia-
tor, on Friday, the 18th, captured
the worlds record for sustained
flight for light airplanes. He took
off from an airport in the Twin Cities
at $50 p. m. on Thursday and des-
cended at 9:19 a. M, having been in
the air for IA hours and 20 minutes
His time, officially recognized, ex-
ceeds the previous record of about
1917 hours by good margin. The
record was established in Waco
plane without refueling.
Reports are Gene was forced down
by the heavy snow fall which devel-
oped early Friday.
On three previous attempts he was
forced down by weather conditions
one time after IL hours.
1t is rumored that he will use a
heavier plane and attempt to break
the worlds endurance record for all
types which is now about 81 hours
However, "a hours would establish
record for one pilot, which record
is held by Lindbergh, which he made
on his solo flight across the Atlantic

AN EXPERTS OPINION

"One of the most costly errors in
advertising is to stop advertising. II
costs you real money to quit. 1t pen
allies you every time you slow up OF
ease off, Stopping and starting is
the most expensive thing in railroad
ing. Every railroad man will tell you
that the through train that runs long
distances without stops is the most
economical train to operate. So it is
in advertising. 1t should be through
train to be resultful.
eff merchant wants to pass out of
the public mind, all he needs to do is
to discontinue advertising. 1t is bet
ter never to start than to start and
stop.
Competitors are eager to take ad-
vantage of the stores failure to stay
out in the bright light of publicity.
"The man who says he cannot af-
ford to advertise continuously makes
grievous business error. He cannot
afford not to advertise. He cannot af-
ford to follow an in-and-out policy
with his advertising. He cannot af-
ford to scatter his forces and run an
occasional ad.'
IF your business does not justify
a large expenditure in advertising
then use small one. Spread the
butter little thinner on the bread
but by all means spread it. Small
space continuously used may be made
more effective if the right thought
and care is given to planning and
writing ads. If you cannot do il
yourself, call in an expert or enlist
the services of your newspaper. Make
an appropriation for advertising and
spend it-every cent" Boot anc
Shoe Records.

MODEL AIRPLANE CONTEST
ON NEXT SAUERKRAUT DAY

Among the features already plan
ned for the next Sauerkraut Day is a
model airplane contest. The Mime
apolis Journal is devoting consider.
able space to interesting boys and
girls in building model planes. This
work is being conducted under the
auspices Of the Airplane Model
League of America. The idea is to
encourage boys and girls in the work
of aviation by building small planes
that will actually fly. Rubber bands
furnish the motive power and these
models will fly from so to 100 feet
taking off from the ground.
DR.. K. E. Brown and Vincent For
ster were appointed as committee
to work with the boys and girls and
arrange for flying contest to take
place on Sauerkraut Day. Anyone
interested may see them for further
information. A two cent stamp sent
to the Journal will bring further de.
tails about how to build the planes

PUBLIC ASKED TO REFRESH
MEMORY ON FOREST FIRES

All people of the United States are
called upon to refresh their memories
during American Forest Week, April
% to %, as to the, Importance of
forest fire prevention.
Fire, says the Forest Service, Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture,
is the chief enemy of trees and for
ests. Sweeping through timber
land, the red flames of forest fire
which has got beyong control may
wreak untold havoc, damaging valu-
able mature trees, destroying young
growth, laying waste grazing lands,
injuring protective watersheds, and
converting to blackened waste what
were cool, inviting woodlands beck
oning to the nature-lover and out
door recreationist.
The Forest Service places the av-
erage annual number of forest fires
in the United States during the past
10 years at approximately $1,000.
The average area swept by fires
each year stands at about 15,000,00
acres; and the annual damage runs
up to $20,OOO,0OO, not taking into
account the damage to young growth
watersheds, grazing lands, and recrea-
tional facilities, which can hardly be
estimated.
The forest fire risk greatly increas-
es with settlement. Approximately
ninety per cent of the forest fires
today are man-caused.
