After the Fords had each ridden in the glorious silver bird that (spanned the Atlantic in 33 1-2 | hours they decided to take another ride and, with Colonel Lindbergh i at the controls, took off with nine other passengers in a giant Ford airplane. This time a trip over the entire city was made, with the Fords ex pressing their dplight in flying. Sudden Impulse' The motor manufacturer's deci sion to take a ride with the “Fly ing Colonel” was made on the sour of the moment. As he stood in s'’* "ting Lindbergh’s plane, he said: i tninK i m going up. Ford then walked over to Lind bergh* who nodded his head, and the famous pair climbed into the cockpit of the ship. After remaining in the air teti or fifteen minutes Lindbergh brought his plane bark to he hangar, and Edsel, who, like his father, had never taken a ride, climber in behind the pilot and the ship was off again. “It’s fine. I certainly enjoyed that ride.” This was what Henry Ford said jviih a grin as he climbed out of the plane. After Edsel and Lindbergh re turned to the ground Henry Ford decided to tuke to the air again, and invited Colonel Lindbergh to fly one of the giant Ford trans ports. The Colonel agreed, and Henry and Edsel Ford Major Thomas G. Lanphier, William B. ] Stout, William B. Mayo, Mrs. Roy | Dahlinger, wife of Ford’s farm | superintendent; P. F. Martin, C. i E.

Congressman ’JTjinks ('.invention Will Nominate President De spite llis Refusal Rapid City, S. I). It: is likely President Coolidge will lie nominat ed next yeur in the same way in which he was nominated for the Vice Presidency in 1920, Represen tative Hull, of Illinois, said here. At that time a spontaneous dem onstration was begun for Coolidge after preparations had been mode to nominate another. Hull said. “Of course, Mr. Coolidge was sincere in his statement. He has gained in popularity. Business men, professional men, lalmring men and farmers universally re gret that the President does not desire to succeed himself. Second To Lincoln “Hut I believe he will tie record ed ir. the history of Presidents as second only to Lincoln. “Jllinois would have cast her votes for Mr. Coolidge in the pri mary and the election if he had desired to accept them. “If Mr. Coolidge is not nominat ed the Republican party will have many great men to succeed him. Among those who are satisfactory are Dawes, Lnwden and Deneen, of Illinois; Watson, of Indiaiiia; Long worth, of Ohio; Hughes and Wadsworth, of New York, and Hoover, of California.’’ Hrush l.auds ( oolidge On the same train with Hull came Mathew ('. Brush, pnefident of the American International Cor* poration of New York, and Assist -n' Attorney-General Donovan. Brush said his visit was purely [Personal, not political. He added, however: j “In the twenty-five years I have known Mr. Ooolidge he has always l>een right.” Donovan said he was looking up come cases for the department in this section of the country and just dropped in to pav h‘.» respects. OK H STICKS TO HUM IREKS There is yet one town left where : the people do not believe >n the worthless waste so prevalent in [ nearly every community you go. Falcon, N. C., a little village in Cumberland county, 7 miles south east of Dunn, is probably the on’y | town in the United States whet e neither a eigaret, Coca Cola, plug of tobacco, nor dust of snuff can be ! bought. The village is composed of a few hundred persons, who are mostly members of the Wesleyan church. They have a church building open to all church people. In addition, they have a very large building built on the tabernacle plain, ui which thousands gather every sum mer to engage in a camp meeting service lasting for several weeks. They have a building well arranged for the assembly, where the visitors cook, eat and sleep. These meetings are the high water mark of joy for tens of thou ans of people ever year, where singing praying, and preaching is the order of both day and night. The Falcon orphanage, where a ; number of boys and girls are cared ! for, and the interdenominational j outgrowth of their school, recently completed, are the outgrowth of j the camp meetings, which furnish the funds to maintain these insti tutions. It only takes a glance at an or phan home or to a religious school to convince the mind that if we deny ourselves the pleasures of a few habits that we can invest in more lasing pleasures. The religion that causes men to deny themselves in order to help others will certainly be awarded. Prohibition Ruins Science Of Cooking And Chef Gives Up (By International News Service!
