Minnesota Fine For
Fish, But 0 u Golf

Frank Catlin, Fred Rathert. Wal
ter Chapman and Bob White got
home from their fishing and
golfing expedition Wednesday
evening. They had a wonderful
time fishing in the lakes at Park
Rapids and camping at Mr.. Cat
Inns lodge. They caught all the
fish they could possibly use and
then devoted themselves to golf
ing, playing on the courses at
Park Rapids and Bemidji. On
their way home they played on
the Glendive course. Bob gave
Frank a drubbing on the beautiful
turf course at Bemidji and Frank
don't expect to hear the last of
it for some time. When Bob gets
beat on the home course the blame
is charged up to the rocks and
hills. The report that Bob was
taken along for bait is officially
denied. He was taken as a golf
instructor.
Going to Minnesota they made
good time. Leaving early Wed
nesday morning, they beat No. 4,
which passed through Wolf Point
several hours after they started,
to Grand Forks. They went to
the Great Northern station and
surprised Mr.. Rathert's s 0
George. who was on No. 4 on
his way to Cresco, Iowa.

fellow. had never been quite
brave enough to trust my life In an
airplane. The highest altitude / could
boast was roof garden or the Wash
ington Monument.
Imagine, then, my awe at being In
vited to go on the air cruise! Invar.a-
bly, every one to whom ! mentioned the
subject quite frankly said But OF
course you won't CO." Being a little
afraid of doing a thing has always
made me want to do 1t more A few
words of encouragement were all that
needed. A great deal OF that was
furnished by my friend, Miss Mildred
johnson, often referred to as the
Apostle of Air Mail" She served with
Byrd, Lindbergh, Goebel and others, as
a member of the committee of Ameri-
can aviators indorsing the air cruise.
She had flown all the American as
we'll as the European air routes. Her
articles recounting her experiences were
so interesting and her enthusiasm so
great, that I found myself, at last,
listed as an air cruise passenger, on
the steamship Columbus on the first
lap Of our Journey.
But something happened 10 the air
cruise. Either its promoters did not
realize the value of American publicity
and advertising In educating US to It's
