MOTHER SHARES SONS HONORS

Turning from the tragic death of Col
onel Sidar, one is led to say word of
admiration for the baby flyer of the
United States, young Frank Goldsbor-
ough, 19, who established three records
for Juvenile cross country flight.
His case is particularly refreshing
relief from reading of young smart
Alecks" of his age. whose sole ambition
appears to be to gain notoriety by flout-
ing the law We are sick and tired, like
many others, of reading about ''baby
faced bandits, sheiky automobile thieves,
thrill slayers, and the like, who have
chosen to take the tawdry glamor and
dross of our modernistic age for the real
standards of their lives.
Young Goldsborough and his perform
ance are like breath of fresh air after
being shut up in close room. Without
ostentation or blatant screeching in the
press, he started out to do job and he
did it,
He gives every promise of becoming as
good an aviator as was his daddy, who
perished three years ago in an ill-fated
attempt to cross the Atlantic.
One cannot pay a tribute to this youth
without expressing admiration for the
mother who gave him Godspeed on his
departure from the East and who greet
ed hin, on his return on Mothers day,
which must have been dcubly happy

MEXICO GRIEVES AGAIN

Once again Mexico is grieving for the
loss Of her most noted aviator in the
death of Colonel Pablo Sidar, tragic VIC
tim of the elements while seeking avia-
ton laurels for his country.
Like the late Captain Emelio Carran-
"a, who was the first of Mexico's flyers
to gain international prominence, Col
onel Sidar was ambitious to have his
country share in the aviation progress
being made by other nations
He conceived and fostered the pro-
posed flight to Buenos Aires and sue
ceeded in overcoming many difficulties
that the trip might be started. Amid the
plaudits of thousands and the good wish
es of millions OF his countrymen, he made
an auspicious start Sunday only to meet
death II hours later.
In death as in life Sidar's course par
alieled CarranZa's. Both were young, of
full, both sought to bring honors in the
newest line of endeavor for their country.
Both perished as victims of the elements.
With limited number of trained fly
ers, Mexico can i'll afford to lose Sidar
and his companion, 1t. Carlos Rovirosa.
But others will spring up to take their
places. Their courage and patriotism
will find echo in other Mexican youths
who will catch the torch of ambition
which they have passed on.
Our own nation, which many times has
suffered the tragic loss of splendid young
men who have emulated the eagle, knows
how to sympathze with Mexico and
needless to say, extends it in the fullest
degree.

Once upon a time there was dog
who lived in a kennel house IN the
woods not far from Uncle Wigglly :
hollow stump bungalow. He was a
tine, strong dog, with sharp teeth
and such fierce bark that those
who did not know him were quite
afraid to go near the kennel house
"For, - thev said, ''that dog
might bite us.''
Put the dog was good and he only
ran after and tried TO bite such
Bad Chaps as the Fox, the Wolf
and the Bob Cat who chased Uncle
Wiggily.

"VET" IN HOOVER'S CAMP

The country is Mortified to learn that
very close friend of President Hoover's,
former cabinet officer in the Coolidge
administration and former chairman of
the Republican national committee, has
Joined the "wets'.
Particularly heinous is the knowledge
that his ''slip" occurred while a member
of the Presidents private party at his re-
treat on the Rapidan, and that it result
ed from bit of "log rolling. known as
a dangerous sport to any experienced
politician.
DR.. Hubert Work, was the unfortunate
victim of the affair. His fall caused con-
siderable embarrassment to the good
doctor and strange to say afforded con-
siderable amusement to the President
and other members of the party.
Lest strong upholders of the eigh-
teenth amendment be scandalized, it
should be explained that Dr. Work be-
came a ''wet" when a log on which he
had stepped rolled beneath him, sending
him into the cool waters Of the Rapidan,
much to his own chagrin and the glee of
his companions, after they realized there
was no danger of the doctor joining Mr..
McGinty at the bottom of the sea.
AS far as we know DR.. Works 'wet-
ness" is not the sort that is likely to
cause him any political embarrassment.
