The first Thanks- giving in America lasted three days instead of one, Mrs. Cook says, and the struggle of the four women to rise to the occasion, is an interest- ing one. Mrs. R. R.

Should Jain “Alaska, of all sections of the country, ought to have an organ-, ized group of women fliers,” Miss | Patterson said. “In Alaska, daily| life is welded more closely to the| airplane than in any part of the United States and it is only right that Alaska women should take part in air progress where it means so much to them.” Miss Patterson said her nouncement today is an attempt to determine how far the organi- zation of a branch of the. AWP in Alaska might go,-and will wel- come letters from interested wo- men if an actual meeting cannot be arranged. | And when the question of age limits arises, Miss Patterson first cites the fact many girls are on the birthday waiting list to get | licenses when the 16 years limit |is reached, and then added the |instance of a B5-year-old Seattle | woman who soloed recently and | “does more flying than all the | rest of the girls.” | i AR AUTO PRODUCTION | SHOWING INCREASE DETROIT, Mich., Nov. 15.—Auto-‘ mobile production boomed again this week.
