AIRPORTS DAY CONING

Importance of Imperial County Airport in the event
OF the establishment of the Southern Airma route
through here is seen in the experience of Colonel Ed
Fletcher and Mayor Clark of San Diego Yesterday
The distinguished San Diegans planned to attend a
ROAD meeting In Tucson yesterday and left the coast
city IN big army bomber
Fog hung over San Diego at a height of 12 600
feet and made flying practically impossible. Having
been advised that northery route was not to be
tnougnt OF, because of weather conditions the party
with an experienced army flyer the stick continued
to try to force way across the mountains huggng
ter being up in the air hour and half
weather conditions that prevailed yesterday will pre-
vail again IN the future An armail plane going west
Yesterday would have encountered the conditions
that Colonel Fetchers party did, and would have had
to turn back. No pilot would mind that knowing that
he had only few minutes of back flying do before it
would be possible for him to alight on modern field
free from weather handicaps and sufficiently lighted
should it happen to be at night
The Southern Airmai route will be reality of that
there is practically no doubt. If So the wisdom of
those who planned and brought to reality first class
flying field at Imperial will be completely justified
Its Importance will not be realized perhaps until has
proved haven of refuge to flyer trying to find
safe spot after battling the elements.
All of which brings to mind the remark made bv an
army flyer who here last year when the Question
Mark was trying for its record Having left the coun-
ty airport for San Diego he forced back by cond
tons similar to those that prevailed Yesterday He ar
rived at the field when it dark and before the
landing light could be turned on.
Making landing as best he could, he bounced 90
feet more in the air. but kept his machine in control
When he left his ship somebody remarked about the
bouncing landing he had made. Brother, l was so
glad to this old field that just bounced on pur-
pose but later he said that the airport was one of the
finest sights have ever seem

Connecticut farm hands are the second highest paid of such workers in New England and the fourth high est paid in the entire country, ac- cording to figures prepared by the department of agriculture.
 The average wages for farm hands in Connecticut, as reported by the de- partment. are S54 with board and Ss5 without board a month, or s2.70 with board and S3.75 without board per day.

THEY SAY

THAT--we venture to state that nearly every one of us has thought more or less of the approach of Spring. This enervating season of the year. we believe. is officially ushered in March 2lst, or whereabouts. Rel egatinF That in Spring young mans fancy turns. ct cetrn. to the realm of discarded, threadbare. platitudes. nevertheless there really are fancies that force themselves uppermost in our minds as the warm sun empha- sizes '.Is won't be long now"
 THAT-we have already received a report of the arrival of the first bluebirds. Soon will come a report of the first robins; the first dandelion blossoms, the first buds and the first haircut of the eccentric individual whose locks are never shorn during the cold months. Then someone will tell us that the deacon has discarded his winter undics and we will be con- vinced that Spring Is really iu our midst
Putnam patriot., 1930-03-06

THAT--reports as above come to all newspaper offices and are printed as news for h them people md en- couraQement to be patient a few weeks longer for miider weather. Some may read these harbingers and scoff. Just the same they make a mental note of the facts and shed some of the winters grouch at the thought that they may soon lot the heater fire burn itself out.
Putnam patriot., 1930-03-06

THAT-there is one human har- binger of the Spring season that Is ever a thorn in the side of the patient editor. This human is the ambitious Spring poet There is a never end ing new crop of this species annually. They persist in sending in far-fetch- ed rhymes lacking rhythm and inelud- ing all sizes of poetic feet. This news paper has made it an unhreakable rule to deny space to these deluded authors of ''verse".
