V ADDITIONAL $2000:
Foil' wing (lie campaign by the
JOlJJR.iAL and by other friends of
education and a visit to Raleigh by

Jackson county, the unfair treatment
that the county received at the liands
of the^; equalizing compulsion, last J
week, granted Jackson county an
additional $L'000.00 from the equal
izing fund.
While i>eopIe in the county who
are- familiar with the facts assert
that this is far short of what Jack
son is really entitled to, they are
delighted with the success that has
been attained in securing this addi
tional amount tor the schools of the
?county.
-One prominent citizen of the coun
ty called the Journal and offered
his congratulations upon the rather
unexpected sncmis of the campaign
and was kind wiough to ipsist that
.the cditoiial&rappearing; ii^the <[$urn

J a rgely instrumental in bringing tlw

Floyd Bennett, pilot of the Byrd
North Pole flight, is coming to the
Cullowhee State Normal on Friday,
August 5, under the auspices of the
school lvceuin course. While here
Mr. Bennett is scheduled to give au
illustrated lecture concerning his
experiences at the North Pole.
Pilot Floyd Bcnjiett, according to
Commander Byrd, U. N. N., the or
ganizer of the expedition, deserves
much credit for the first successful
flight to the North Pole. Mr. Ben
nett was chosen for the great adven
ture because of his knowledge of
the aviation motor, as welL as his
skill as a ?pilot?which alone could
insure the success of the great under
taking. The only possibility of a re
turn to civilization alive if engine
trouble had forced a landing on th?i
ice lay in Bennett's knowledge of
the giant motors which drove tho
great monoplane to the North Pole
and back again.
Since the triumphant; return of
the North Pole flyers, Mr. Bennett
has achieved a considerable reputa
tion also s a public speaker and lect
urer. Although extremely modest
about his own accomplishments, Floyd
Bennett has a, direct and sincere
manlier of speaking and telling one
of the most interesting stories of his
tory. He has already visited fifty
cities from New York to San Fran
cisco, travelling by airplane. Hia

claim to the North Pole was cinched.
The intrepid flyers, Byrd and Ben
