A Wonderful Air Race. ‘ Last Wednesday, the most wonder- ful air race began across the contin- ent and back. Starting from Roose- velt Field, Mineola, Long Island, six- ty-six airplanes, piloted by men eag- er to win the race, sailed westward. The western goal was Presidio Grounds, San Francisco. The first to reach these grounds was Lieutenant Belvin Womble May- nard, “aviator clergyman,” who also was the first one back, thereby win- ning the race. Starting twenty-one minutes past one, Wednesday afternoon, he returned fifty minutes past one, Saturday after- noon, after flying five thousand, four hundred and two miles in fifty hours. The lieutenant had two companions, Sergeant William Klein, his mechanie, and Trixie, a police dog. Lieutenant Maynard was by choice a clergyman, but war made him a soldier and probably being one of the best aviators in the army, he is still in the service. After his arrival, Lieutenant May- mard spoke in favor of government aviation service, apart from the army or navy. His wife and children greeted him at his return. HARRY SCHATZ, Age 13, Yantic. How | Spent a Raniy Day. One morning when I woke up I look- éd out of the window and saw that it was raining. 1 dressed as quickly as possible and ran down stairs, ate my breakfast and filled the wood box. After that I went to the barn and played in the hay until noon. After dinner’ I shelled beans for half an hour. Then my brother and I played in the hay until about half past three. After that we eame in the house and played “Hide the spool” for a littte while. Later in the afternoon papa took usl for a ride in the automobile. When we got home it was supper tigne. Tn a few minutes mamma had supper. ready. After we had eaten supper we plaved some indoor games, and ‘then! we went to bed.
