THE STORY

GEORGETOWN, British Gui-
 ana, Feb. 20.-Alfred Harrod.
 ParamaribO newspape rman.
 said today that he and Art Will
 Hams, American pilot, found the
 long missing Paul Redfern alive
 in the Tumac Mountains of
 Western Guiana.
 The fliers said they were
 forced to leave Redfern in the
 hands of an Indian tribe which
 would not permit him to escape.
 They said Redfern was crippled
 as result of the crash August
 26. 1927, which ended his attempt
 to make solo flight from
 Brunswick, Georgia, to Rio de
 JaneirO.
 The pair returned to civilization after a flight into the back country in an effort to locate Redfern.
 Captive of Savages
 Harrod said the pilot was the cap- tive of wild Indian tribe which holds him in awe because he came out of the skies. and the tribe would not let him leave.
 They saw the remains of Redfern's plane hanging on the branches of a large tree, and later found the pilot. dressed in ragged undershirt and drawers.
 
 As they chatted with him, 500 h. dians with poisoned spears and oth- CT weapons surrounded them. On Redfern's advice the pair left.
 Nine Year Hunt Ends
 The discovery is said to bring to an end a search of almost nine years duration. during which dis aster befell several of the expedi- tlons seeking Redfern and no trace or the Georgia flier was previously found.
 Recently Pilot Art Williams com- with Redfern's father saying that he would soon have A sensational revelation to make con- cernlng the case.
 Disaster Dogs Searchers
 one plane cracked up in a previous search for Redfern, two army fliers from the Canal Zone were laid near death by fever. and other misfortunes have overtaken expeditions that penetrated the Guiana jungles by foot and horseback to locate the flier.
 Redfern's plane was last seen on his Georgia-Rio de Janeiro flight over the southern part of Central America. There several white men reported that he was flying in low circles over the land, apparently try ing to get his bearings. and then vanished into the storm laden skies.

bated breath by an amazing tech

bers on the program.
Segovia responded to the de-
sireS of the audience with several
encoreS. Although the hour was
late when the concert ended. few
people left the room until the en-.
cores were heard. When one con-
siders the difficulties in stopping
the many strings Of the guitar in
order to make the chords, 1t is
easy to see why there are rela.

Washington. were revealed yester-
day by park officials.

scenic drive would connect Mount

Preliminary plans have been
drafted, and Federal aid for the
project will be sought within the
near future.

FARM BUREAU
FLAYS STATE
RELIEF PLAN

ROCKVILLE, Nd, Feb. s..
Branding the present methods Of
administering relief funds as
wasteful and harmful to the
morale Of farm laborers and lead
ing eventually to the pauperiza-
ton Of many men, the Montgom-
cry County Farm Bureau last
night adopted q resolution urging
that relief administration be
taken out Of the hands Of the
State and placed with the in
dividual counties.
Citing the fact that Montgom-
cry county only received one-third
Of the amount paid into the State
relief fund through the gross re-
ceipts sales tax, the resolution
urged that each county be reim-
bursed equivalent to the amount
paid to the State. and counties
be allowed to set UP their own
agency for administering relief
funds.
Reassessment Urged
The bureau adopted another
resolution urging q general re-
assessment of all county real eS-
tate Immediately, and asking that
legislation be enacted that would
provide for a reaSsesSment Of
property in the fast growing
suburban area Of the county at
frequent intervals.
Farm Bureau members meeting
in the Richard Montgomery High
School here heartily endorsed Q
proposal urging repeal Of the
county's anti-trapping law. Cit
ing the increase in vermin among
the game birds and animals be-
cause of this law, the proposal
asked that trapping Oe permitted
with No. 2 standard traps, each
inscribed with the owners name
and each Of which must be WIS.,

STEPPING STONES

STEPPING STONES
If we would only learn to use our
crosses
AS stepping stones, instead of stumb-
ling blocks,
And gain strength from our tribula-
lions
Instead of cringing meath life's many
knocks;
If we would be submissive-not REBEL
ious-
When our most cherished plans fall
by the way,
And always hope for better things to-
morrow
Well find it helps US through the
longest day.
Sometimes our earnest prayers re-
main unanswered
And seemingly He neither sees nor
tears.
When we, like little children, yearn
for sweetness
Without our share of bitterness OF
teas.
We find it hard to take pain with our
pleasure,
Or drink the gall that's mingled with

Shows how the drab threads soften

And so, if pain and sorrow be my por-

And disappointments loom on every

I'll pray for strength and patience to

THE WHISPER

THE WHISPER
Dedicated to Berlie Tarr
To Thee, o Maker of a universe
Incomprehensible and vast,
A child of Thine, weary of the fur
rowed soil,
Has hurried fast.
His Flooding step, behind the plow,
Quickened; then stopped.
He's resting now.
Between the rows of cultivated green
The one who comes at last to all,
Through tired eyes, sweat-blurred, he
oft had seen
Approaching him;
And welcome burned behind his brow.
Forward he ran.
He's resting now.
The birds he heard at dawn of this
fair day,
Their carols sing. The balmy air
Plays 'mong the leafy trees whose
1.-the branches sway
In rhythm sweet.
1t whispers, so it seems to me,
Of life in death;
And home with Thee.
