A—10 ARNY EXPOSTON 5 ERUN TODAY Program of Military Feats Will Continue Through Saturday Night. Launched shortly after 2 o'clock this | afternoon by zooming aircraft, which | resented a mimic air battle climaxed y_the destruction of a balloon, the Military Exposition and Carnival en- tered upon a program of thrilling events which will be presented daily through Saturday evening. The balloon-bursting feat by Capt. Prank O. D. Hunter, concluding_the | engagement between Langley Pleld bombers and nine pursuit planes. from Belfridge Field, Mich., was scarcely over | when the Machine’ Gun Troop, 3d | Cavalry, of Fort Myer, galloped onto | the field at Washington Barracks to present mounted gymnestics at 2:33 o'clock. From that time on the mili- | tary life pageant of thrills was to follow 8 schedule which will be repeated, save for slight time changes, tomorrow and | Saturday. Bridge Bullt and Destroyed. ‘The 13th Engineers of Fort Hum- phreys_were to erect & bridge at 2:45 | p.m. Within 15 minutes of the start | of this exhibition the bridge was to be blown to bits. Troop A, 2d Armored Car Squadron| of the 2d Cavalry Division, dashes across & bridge, after which it makes & reconnoissance and forms a defense against an air attack. Next, the 3d Battalion, 12th Infantry, | of Fort Washington executes a silent diill, in which maneuvers are executed | without commands. In the same period | the 12th Infantry repels an air attack| .ndl a tank and an airplane stage a duel. A Cavalry “sheik drill” then is staged. and for the next number Battery B, 16th Field Artillery, known as the “Black Horse Battery,” presents a for- mal battery mounted drill without command. Pigeons Will Race. Then follows a pigeon race, started ‘with the release of 10 homing pigeons from the War College for flight to Fort Meade. The results are announced by Joud speakers. Four o'clock witnesses the climax— the beginning of “Perils of the Plains,” the thrilling and realistic enactment of | incidents of wagon train days, featur- ing Indian attacks and cavalry rescues. ‘The pageant continues for half an r. ‘Tonight's program will begin at 8 ©o'clock with a flight of the “Fireflies aircraft performers from Langley Field. ‘The performance will include the famous “looping comet” in pyrotechnic alr acrobats and the exhibition of night flyving by bombers. Then comes the other numbers, with the pageant.going on at 8:58 o'clock. Slight Program Change. ‘Tomorrow and Saturday afternoon's program will follow this afterncon’s schedule practically in detail, with events being staged at slightly varying times. im on those days will begin at 2:30 o'clock, instead of at | but in & very friendly spirit! THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGYUN, D. C, TFatviihon LR 25, 1930. My Word! We’re Wordy! On the Other Hand, We're Hospitable and Warm- Hearted—W e Have Plenty of Chicken and Liquor, but Let Dogs and Cats Go Where They Like. BY HIS WORSHIP, REUBEN SALTER, Mayor of Boston, England. Spectal Dispatch to The Star. BOSTON, September 25 (N.AN.A)— A feature of American life that has amused us all greatly in the entertain- ment provided for us in the United States is your fondness for multiplying the list of speakers at all your various functions. At one luncheon we attended almost every one present was called upon to faake a speech. And invariably the chairman or announcer is the worst of the lot. He always must chip in with a wordy introduction of each speaker, giving his life's history back to Adam, and attributing to him qualities and | virtues that are only to be found in heaven itself, ‘Those attending such functions seem- ingly love to be in the limelight. And also none of these functions starts on time. Invariably the gatherings were always half an hour or more late. In the old country all such functions start on time, and it is understood that the chairman should be seen and not heard overmuch. Whether this un- punctuality is typical or only through the. stress of the occasion, I cannot say. Also at all dinners in England no one smokes until after the toast of “the King” is given. Then the chair- man announces, “Gentlemen, you may smoke.” ‘You Americans are noted in England as a people who hustle, and we found in many directions evidence of this. But I question whether you get to the end of the journey any sooner than the more sedate and slower-moving Englishman. It is often a case of more haste, less speed in America. No Carping Criticism. But let me make it quite clear in my notes that what I have said is not said in a spirit of carping ecriticism, It would be most ungenerous of me to criticize after the very generous and very warm welcome you have given to the deputa- tion from old Boston. ‘We have received unstinted kindness at the hands of everyone. Your hos- pitality has been unbounded and we have all had an unforgetable experi- ence. ‘What a warm-hearted people you are to be sure, so different from the phieg- matic Englishman. The typical characters representing England and America are John Bull and Uncle Sam. The national dish in f s F — old England is roast beef, and John Bull looks as if he lived on it. The national dish in America seems to me to be chicken and Uncle Sam is | obliged to live on it because very little else is provided. I shall never dare go |anywhere near a farmyard when I get home for a very long time. Articles in your shops appear to us very dear, mostly double to what they |can be bought for in England, and rents seem to be excessive. We think in England that our countryside is unrivaled, and I have |not yet seen much to compare with it |in any other country. There are no |fences in front of your properties ad- | joining the roads. In England every property is sharply | divided from its neighbor by substan- tial fences or railings or hedges. Most of them have a front garden, but we | keep everybody off by putting up a | strong protection. British insularity all over. But I must confess I like the English style myself—it looks as if the home belonged to somebody. In America it appears as if every- body had a right of way and all the |cats and dogs could go where thdy | liked. | Every one here seems to own a car and your parking places take some beating. Your public utilities are car- | ried out on a gigantic scale, and there | seems no stint when public improve- | ments are needed. | _The guestion of prohibition Is to you Write for New, FREE Book of Pish Recipes.
