THE RICHMOND PLANET K.OF P.IN COURT OUSTED OFFICERS ASK REINSTATEMENT. VOLUME XLV, NO. 11 K. OUSTE Puryea As an aftermatch of the stormy session of the last Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pythias of Virginia, held in the City of Newport News in June, 1927, a notice of application for a writ of mandamus compelling the reinstalment of Messrs. F. E. Puryear and Eugene West, formerly Grand Vice-Chancellor and Grand Keeper of Records and Seal, respectively, who were suspended at the said session was served on the Grand Keeper of Records and Seal of the Grand Lodge of Virginia of Knights of Pythias on January 16th, 1928, at Portsmouth, Virginia. The notice being returnable to the Court of Husings for the City of Portsmouth, February 17th 1928. The action of the Grand Lodge of Virginia in the suspension of Messrs. Puryear and West was carried before the Supreme Lodge of Knights of Pythias, which held its biennial session in Chicago in August, 1837, on an appeal submitted on a brief prepared by counsel for the suspended members. The brief, alleging many grounds for reversal of the action of the Grand Lodge of Virginia, states among others; that the charges were defective; that they were improperly presented; that the trial committee was improperly and illegally constituted; that they, the said F. E. Puryear and Eugene West, were suspended without the required vote, and even though the allegations were proper and the allegations had been sustained, the action of the body was contrary to the constitution and by laws of the Order and therefore illegal and void. The suspension of Messrs. Puryear and West created quite a favor in Python circles in Virginia and the outcome of their efforts to compel their relinstatement is awaited with much interest by a host of their friends both within and without the Order. The papers filed in the proceedings bear the names of Attorneys W. W. Foreman and W. L. Davis of Norfolk. Va. as counsel for Messrs. Puryear and West.

AWARDS FOR HIGH SCHOOL PAPER ON NEGRO HISTORY The Commission on Interracial Cooperation, with headquarters at 409 Palmer Building, Atlanta, Ga. announces the offer to American high school students of three prizes of fifty, thirty, and twenty dollars respectively for the three best papers on "America's Tenth Man", submit, ted on or before April 1st, 1928. The purpose of the offer is to interest students in a brief study of the Negro's part in American history, which according to the Commission has been much more interesting and creditable than is generally supposed. The Commission has prepared suggestions and data for the use of those desiring to submit papers and invites inquiries from principals, teachers and students who may be interested. HOLY TRINITY BAPTIST CHURCH OF PHILADELPHIA (Phila. Pa. Christian Review) It has been some time since the Holy Trinity Baptist Church has entered our editorial columns. This is one of the great churches of Philadelphia, with one of the greatest pastors in the country as its leader, in the royal personality of the Rev. W. F. Graham, D.D. The church has recently made some improvements in its architecture, which have added greatly to its beauty. It has become one of the largest churches in the city under the magnetic pastorate of Dr. Graham, who has always been regarded as the financial savior of deplored While Trinity has an enviable history, and is composed of some of the most brilliant and aristocratic citizens of Philadelphia, it has never flourished and blossomed as it has since Dr. Graham has been its pastor. Its financial, numerical and spiritual tides have been high for fifteen years. Though a veteran pastor, Dr. Graham will never be old. Some churches are opposed to old pastors. It largely depends upon who the old clergyman is, for there are some very old young preachers and some very young old preachers. Which will you choose? Dr. Graham is a great student of churches, books, conditions and times. He has a faint imagination, a graphic mental picture artist which always charms. Real value of those characters will have been retrained to not be known until he has retired from the time of his death and dropped upon his maestric form for all time. A most unique character is he—Philadelphia, Pa. Christian Review. 14. Christian Review LAWYER W. F. DENSY Attorney William F. Denny has scored heavily in the case at Hopewell. He delayed the execution of William Nelson, a colored man charged with criminal assault. After his electrocution, the star witnesses for the defense were arrested by the Commonwealth's attorney and, before a jury, they were convicted on a charge of perjury and given three years in the Virginia penitentiary. The case was appealed by Attorney Denny and the judgment reversed. Dr. A. M. Bowles, the popular pharmacist, who has been indisposed at his residence is so much improved that he is at his post of duty again. Miss M. Kate Doyle, prominent worker among the young Baptists of the State, is able to be about the city again after months of confinement. She has recovered from her operation and will be found in the forefront of Baptist activities. Mr. Richard Morris arrived in the city last. Wednesday to attend the funeral of his father, Mr. Robert Morris, who died Wednesday morning about 3 o'clock. IN REMEMBRANCE In said but loving memory of our father and grandfather, Richard T.

Richmond, Va., Jan. 17, 1928 RACE RELATIONS SUNDAY. FEBRUARY 12. The annual observance of Race Relations Sunday — the sixth since its inception in 1923 — will take place this year on February 12th, when thousands of churches, Sunday schools' Y. M. C. A.'s, young people's societies and other religious groups will focus their attention on the problems of race. Especial em. phasig will be laid this year on penitence and prayer for the complete suppression of lynching and mob violence in America. In issuing this call the Federal Council's Commission on Race Relations points out the fact that in the last forty years more than four thousand persons have been put to death by mobs in this country, and the crimes of th's character, though less numerous than formerly, are still of frequent occurrence. A pamphlet containing topics and suggestions for observance of Race Relations Sunday can be had for one year's a copy from the Commission on the Church and Race Relations, 105 East 22nd Street, New York City. Other pamphlets on the subject may be had without charge from the Commission on Interracial Cooperation, 409 Palmer Building, Atlanta Ga. Winnegan Must Die.

The workers are under the leadership of two captains, the Red Captain being Grand Secretary Treasurer Amos C. Clark and the Blue Captain, Mrs. Susie H. Robinson. 22 at 11:30 A. M. and 8:00 P. M.

The drive closes with a supper at 9 P. M. Tuesday, January 31. SHEPHERDS BAND INSPECTED The Shepherds Band held its annual inspection Thursday night of last week at its headquarters in the Baker School. The Uniform Rank Commission was in charge and conducted a minute examination of the Band's equipment and appearance. With 2 men on roll, the Band scored 81.3 per cent on attendance, only 4 men unaccounted for. The personal appearance score was 98.8 with Simon Plet. George W. Jones B. Harper and Fred. D. Clark scoring 100 percent. The individual score was as follows: Robert Watkins. 97; Joseph Williams. 99; James Morris. 98; H. L. Marshall. 98; James M. Foster. 99; Allen Brigman. 86; Elliot Athev. 90; Barton Goodman. 90; James Kyles. 95; M. Molver. 95; A. L. Lynch. 96; G. Bailey and Hill Howard (excused). Members of the Order will be good to know that the inspection of the 34 instruments scored 82.3. Only two instruments were found defective and the Commission will take necessary steps to have these repaired. These sulphide instruments are valued at $2,500. Three cash awards were at Commission or Clark for the best care for instruments. They were won as follows: First prize. Robert Watkins; second prize. Joe Willett;s; third prize, James M. Foster. The inspection was conducted by Commissioners Clark and Mitchell, assisted by Major George L. Branch and Captain William H. Milton, of the Uniform Bank, Shepherds and Bachelors of Bethlehem. Captain Benjamin F. Prosser was assigned to the efficiency test of the instruments. Many ladies were present to witness the inspection and a committee from their number assisted the judges in awarding prizes for the best kept instrument. The patience and training of Prof. Benjamin Prosser in a large measure is responsible for the splendid condition of this band. Commis sioner Amos C. Clark gives much personal direction to the band and is its business manager. The band will be immediately recruited to 60 men. 26 cents for first class entertainment, polite attention and the proper protection is a great inducement. The Mesua Theatre offers this.

As the doors are usually kept locked and no admittance can be secured save by members with keys, the feeling seems to be that some member did not play fair with the organization. The Squad reported that no minor was found on the place and the Club was given a "clean bill." A fine of $50.00 was imposed on the steward of the Club on account of the slot machines. These machines had been in the Club for many years. The Supreme Court of Appeals of Virginia has declined to grant a writ of error in the case of Shirley Winnegan, alias Willingham, who was recently sentenced to be electrocuted January 25, 1928. No power exists now to stave off the inevitable save in the Executive Department of the government. One Lancy Commission has decided that he is insane and another body of the same kind and dignity has declared him sane. This leaves it a question for the Governor of Virginia to decide.

Dear Sir:—Allow me the privileges through the columns of your paper to congratulate Professor Milie Mark Fisher of Virginia Union University whom. I understand through the last week's issue of your paper. is resigning his position at the University to enter the pastorate. We regret very much the loss which Virginia Union will sustain, but the Negro Church is in need today of educated men of Dr. Fisher's type. Dr. Mordecal Johnson, a prince of preachers, said to me a few days ago in a letter: "My great hope is that we may have a steady strength, ening of the Churches through the coming of more and more intelligent men into the ministry." Is not this the crying need of Negro Churches today? It has been a puzzle to me why some of our best young men, trained for the ministry in the best schools of the land, flee from the pastorate to the school room. Is it because of poor pay? The best pulpits pay more than the school room. Is it because these young men tire of bucking obstinate, mean, treacherous and devilish boards in order to put across a modern church program? Whatever the cause of their going we are happy to note Fisher's return. We need strong educated young men like Fisher on the firing line—men who are broad and liberal. Come on Fisher, and take your place in the greatest profession in the world, which directs men and women to the "Lamb of God which taketh away the sin of the world". I am, Joyously yours, ROBERT M. WILLIAMS. HUMAN SYMPATHY Judge John L. Ingram had two similar cases respectively on last Wednesday and Thursday morning. In the first instance a colored man appeared with his wife. She had twin babies in her arm and two small tots walking beside her. In the other case a man appeared with his wife and five small children. Both walked out of the courtroom unmolested. The wellspring of human sympathy bubbled and out they went. Horseless Farm Era Predicted As Equine Population Dwindles ZWU HORSELESS FARMING WICHITA, Kans. — Horseless farms will be a reality in America by 1987 if the nation's equine population continues to dwindle at its present rate according to W. C. Coleman of Wichita, Kans. "Old Dobbin will be as rare as the ones within the next twenty years," predicted Mr. Coleman. Lead of the Coleman Lamp and Stove Company, in turn-owned horses have decreased by 6,000,000 in the last decade alone. In 1917 there were 21,210,000. Today there are 15,270,000. "Continued on this basis of decrease there will be only 9,279,000 horses left in 1937. By 1957 the horse population will have diminished to a number 9,279,000. Then it will take about five years more until the last American farm loses its horse and Dobbin will take his place as a circus curlytie with Jo-Jo, the dog-faced man. Permanent solving of horses with the advent of automobiles and tractors was as inevitable on the farm as replacement of old-fashioned oil-wick lamps by modern safety pressure gasoline lamps. Farm-owned automobiles have doubled in the last five years. There are now 4,332,000 cars on farms compared with 2,100,000 in DEATHS REPORTED The following is a list of deaths of colored persons reported to the Richmond Bureau of Health from January 10 to January 17, 1928. with age and date of death: Henry Watkins, 44 years; 2413 Carrington St.; January 9.

WHAT THA DING DING? LISSEN-YAINT SUPPOSED TO SEE ME COME IN, Y'AINT! OH H H, I SEE! Autocenter Berlin CHICAGO—Napoleon Bonaparte who found time to be military genius, statesman, lawgiver and romantic lover was also the founder of the modern beet sugar industry which supplies 2,000,000,000 pounds of sugar annually to families in the United States, according to Stephen H. Love, president of the U. S. Best Sugar Association, in an address here. "Although crystallization of sugar from beet was discovered in Andrew Ingraham," scientist in 1747, Mr. Love, "commercial application of the principle did not become a reality until the Napoleonic wars. The British embargo prevented same sugar from reaching France and confronted the nation with a sugar famine. So Bonaparte set aside huge beets or land, compelled the planting of sugar beets by elicit, financed the creation of factories and made France sugar supply. Metuus even to beet culture by the American carried the industry to the United States where it was first undertaken near Philadelphia in 1890. The first best sugar factory was established at Northampton, Man., in 1888. From this beginning best sugar manufacturing has developed into a great American industry. An investment of $900,000 in equipment and a production in excess of $900,000 tons of sugar annually. "While the best sugar industry has experienced a remarkable growth in America, the development here is pygmy-like compared with European countries which produce twice as much best sugar as made from with a best growing soil no longer than once. The industry has made phenomenal strides in Europe because of efficient tech measures in equipment. tal countries which protect domestic industry, keep foreign sugar out of their domain, and preserve their home markets for their own products. The United States imports about six times as much sugar for consumption as it produces itself." BY C. M. PAYNE CHURCH DIRECTORY EBENEZER BAPTIST CHURCH. (Leigh and Judah Streets.) Rev. W. H.

Charter for Vast Charity Endowment To Be Created by Elks' Order ST AUGUSTINE. Fla.—A permanent fund amount of from ten to twenty million dollars is to be created by the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks and the legal structure for the vast permanent charity will be created at the next national convention of the fraternity in Miami, Fla. during the second week of July. This was made known by Mr. John F. Malley, of Springfield, Mass., head of the order, in an interment trip returning from an amusement trip throughout World during which he had approved the arrangements made for the next Grand Lodge meeting andvention of the order at Miami. "The Order of Elks was organised shortly after the Civil War," said Mr. Malley, "at a time when there was a great need of a spirit of brotherhood among men, to soothe the wounds left by strife. The order stands for charity and fraternity. But it has grown to a membership of one million men and now it requires a new goal, a new ideal, commensurate with its wealth and membership. So at the next convention of the order in Milan there will be drawn up the legal papers for a permanent charity be administered by the Elks with an endowment. Such funds will millions to dollars." this fund will be freed from the brace of the will, be moved the state or the endowment. We will take our scholarships and women, care of help and good the long lines but whatever who receives to feel that truly. No one were, or be national char- administered the goal, all. othy members to doubt will will remember this quietly when the time comes, it does for all, to leave our worldly wealth. Boulder, our Mile magazine is already turning in about a quarter of a million dollars a year as a member for the endowment. I believe this worthy object will contribute to the great growth of the order, give a new goal to aim at, and draw our members still more closely together. Because we will organize this downowment as Miami, the Miami con- vention will be the most important and significant perhaps, since the founding of the order. I was greatly improved by the fact that not only Miami but all Florida will join in the active entertainment of the con- vention. The preparations are very instrumental and the people of Florida are so enthusiastic that I know it will be a great success. I will with the great state and had Mile and I plan to enjoy visiting Miami as intervals in the future. "Only the income of this fund will be used. The funds derived from this source will be administered by the Grand Lodge of Elk, which will, however, support worthy movements which are instituted by the state organization. The work will take various forms. It may be scholarships for deserving young men and women case the district, the school, the child care department, help and good treat to undisturbed along the lines of our present work, but whatever direction it takes, no one who receives this bounty will be made to feel that he is a recipient of charity.

Evangelist Sparks delivered a wonderful message to the men and boys of Roanoke last Sunday at 4 P. M. He addressed the women at 4 P. M. The crowds thronged to these services, which are being fostered by the Methodist Churches in a Union Revival. This Union Revival has brought men to see more fully the will and purpose of God's Church in the hearts of his people. One of the saddest happenings in the colored section took place last Friday night. Some boys from Moor road N. W. came to Ninth Avenue East Roanoke and clashed with the boys there. One of the boys from Moorman Road was stabbed in the heart and died instantly. The boy who did the stabbing was caught by a man nearby and held until the police arrived on the tragic scene. He was taken out Saturday night in the eastern section of the city Saturday night. He is an insurance agent. We regret these happenings among our people. Noon hour prayer meetings are held each day at the First Baptist Church. They have proven very helpful to all. The Evangelist speaks to the audience on important topics that concern the Christian life. He spoke today on Sanification and all had to accept his instruction or deny the teachings of the meek and lowly Nazarene. The mother of Mrs. Joseph Williams, of Walker Avenue N. E. died here last week. (Corner 15th and Decatur Sts) Rev, W. L. Ransome, D. P. Worr; Parsonage 1507 Decatur Street Services: Sunday, 11:30 A. M & 8 P. M. Sunday School, 9:30 A. M.

They are proving to be a great help in forming sentiment in our favor just now. The "rising generation" of both races constitute a problem that must ultimately engage the attention of the wisest people among both races. It looks very much like Secretary Herbert Hoover of California will go into the Republican National Convention with the backing of the people who have been supporting President Coolidge. The Democrats seem to be working hard to make the election of a Republican candidate doubly sure. You can make friends with some white people, and some others will not make friends with you. Keep up the good work. The time will come when the friendly elements will prove to be the greatest help against those white folks of the unfriendly type. "Wonders will never cease." Certainly this is true when Governor Harry Flood Byrd sends a message to the Virginia Legislature not only condemning lynching, but recommending the enactment of an anti-lynching law penalizing the county in which the lynching occurs and authorizing the Attorney-General of the State to proceed against the guilty parties. He would make the amount payable to the relatives or family of the person lynched $2,500. This is in line with a similar recommendation of President Calvin Coolidge, and shows that any one who fails to put Governor Byrd in the category of a statesmtn is making a mistake. If the States enact anti-lynching laws, it is needless and unnecessary for the Federal Government to do the same thing. We take it, then, that these Southerners are seeing the danger of further interference by the Federal Government with States' rights and privileges. The declaration that lynching is anarchy is the proper characterization of the offense. "AL." SMITH AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY It is generally conceded that Governor Alfred Smith of New York will be the nominee of the Democratic party at Houston, Texas, where an anti-Ku Klux Klan demonstration has been planned. It may be on the cards that a Southerner will be named for Vice-President. In this respect many Southern States men will appear as aspirants for that honor. Young Governor Moody of Texas is being mentioned for the position. Senator Reed of Missouri who will appear as an aspirant for the Presidency, may blushingly consent to accept second place on the ticket. What will such a combination mean? It will take out of the Republican column New York, New Jersey and other Eastern States. The battleground will be shifted to the border Southern State and to the Middle and Far West. As for the South, tens of thousands of the leaders of the Democratic clans will sulk in their tents, but will leave the organization and the election machinery in the hands of the machine men, who will see that the electoral vote is cast for the Democratic nominees. The country will resound with anti-Catholicism and this country will be plunged into the most vindictive campaign ever staged in this country. The Smithites are determined to find out whether an American citizen's religion is to be a test of his fitness and availability for office. They could not have selected a more available candidate to make the test. PASTOR SUNDAY, JAN. 22nd, 1928 11:30 A. M., "The Life With a Gear Shift." 8:15 P. M., Communion.

MINOR LYNCHINGS MUST STOP DECLARES THE GOVERNOR There have been a few lynchings in Virginia in recent years; but it is tolerable that there should be any. There is no excuse for lynching in a State where the enforcement of the law in cases likely to provoke mob violence has been prompt and rigorous. Attempted rape in Virginia may be punished by death, and juries are quick to punish crimes that once incited men to take the law in their own hands. Mob law is anarchy, and it is the duty of the Governor to see that the laws are enforced. I intend to discharge this duty to the extent of the resources of the State, and to seek out the identity of those who take the law into their own hands and cause them to be prosecuted. But the law is now insufficient; it must be made more drastic in order that it may be dredged by those who permit their inflamed passions to drive them into crimes of public violence. I recommend (a) that the crime of lynching be declared by law a specific State offense, be prosecuted by the Attorney-General or other prosecutors designated by the Governor, in addition to the local authorities; (b) that a county or city where the lynching occurs be required to pay $2,500 to the lawful distributes of the person lynched; (c) that the Governor thorized to spend such sum as he deems necessary in apprehending the guilty members of the mob. It should be made clear that delivering lynching by law as a specific State offense does not take away the constitutional rights of accused citizens for trial in the localities where the crime was com- mitted. Virginia is the last State in the Union where lynching should be tolerated, for Virginia contributed to America the leaders who taught that this was a government by laws. MEETINGS AT FOURTH CHURCH There will be an overflow crowd at the Fourth Baptist Church Sunday morning and night. A sacred concert by Primrose Bible Class, taught by Rev. W. E. Brown, will take place at 3:30 P.M. A prize will be presented by President Walker of the Baptist Sunday School Convention. The public is invited. W. R. COOTS GONE The funeral of W. R. Coots, 408 E Clay St., took place Wednesday afternoon, 2 P. M., at the First Baptist Church, with the pastor, Rev. W. T Johnson, D.D., officiating. The deceased had been confined to his residence only a few weeks and his death was a surprise to his many friends. The floral designs were numerous and costly. The casket was a state solid mahogany with extension handles to match. Funeral Director C. P. Hayes officiated. JUDGE INGRAM NOMINATED The Democratic caucus of the Virginia Legislature met last Tuesday at 1:30 P. M. and by an overwhelming vote nominated Justice John L. Ingram, of the Police Court of this city to succeed Judge W. Kirk Mathews. At the last session of the Legislature Judge Mathews won over Justice Ingram, who had endorsed by the Richmond Bar. An attempt was made by the friends of Judge Mathews to have impreachment proceedings instituted against the jurist with a view to postponing the election and the settling of certain rumors which and been floated concerning him. The opposition held that as he was serving the unexpired term of Justice Richardson, the naming of Justice John L. Ingram for the new term was no direct reflection upon him. Justice Ingram found in the courtroom on Wednesday morning a large floral horseshoe on an easel about 6 feet high. In the center was the word "Congratulations."

WHERE ARE THE HUTCHISONS? I would like to know the where, abouts of my brothers, Charlie H. and Olen G. Hutchison, reported to be living in Richmond, Va. They may be passing as American Negro or Indians. Our father, Dr. C. H. Hutchison, a Cherokee Indian lived in Richmond a few years after taking up his profession, about 1880. Our mother was a Black Hawk Indian. My father's birthplace was in or near Culpeper, Va. His mother was named Adeline Taylor. She left Lynchburg, Va. in 1890, with her daughter Rosa and went to New York City. I am told that my father's half brother, Frank Golf was pastor of First Baptist Church in Richmond.

The Grand Opera was an immense success. Colored folks, who are purchasing seats at 25 cents are delighted and they are reserved seats, too. THE RICHMOND PLANET, RICHMOND. (Special by John Mitchell, Jr.) The Richmond (Va.) News-Leader and the Corley Company scored heavily at the Mosque Theatre last Monday night in the rendition of the grand opera "Aida," Verdi's masterly production. This magnificent, spacious edifice was packed with one mass of appreciative humanity that during intervals gave expression to their satisfaction by rapturous applause. The orchestra was, too, the scene that attracted. Beautiful women, attired in the latest creations from Paris in particular and Europe in general, with the cost mounting into the thousands, accompanied by handsome men in opera suits and all else to match, entered this palatial structure while an awe-stricken crowd in the balconies above looked down upon them with satisfied amazement. As for the stage scene, it was superb in its Oriental settings, which were gorgeous, while the actors lived in the times that now are no more. The singing was in a class with that of the famous Italian Caruso, and the stars in the play were both numerous and satisfactory. At times the acts were delayed to permit the favorites to present themselves to the enthusiastic audience that applauded again and again. In the balcony, to the left, sat just about one hundred colored citizens, who had been fortunate enough to secure reservations. The color line was forgotten and everybody was in good humor. No event in the history of this city has ever been staged to equal this one, and no place has ever existed in which such an exhibition of musical talent could be staged. Acca Temple's building committee, and in fact the organization itself, "built better than they knew." This superb structure has materially benefited this city and placed it in the front bank with the other large cities of this country. AN ANNOUNCEMENT.

He caught three young wolves, treated them kindly and endeavored to train them for the dog team, to run with the huskies, and parted and parted wolf, but Beavals found out that pure blooded wolf would not melt in the dog team melting pot. He got so far that his infant son used a baby wolf to draw his tiny sled, but after that, there was nothing doing. So Mountie and his huskie pals are still running the Chateau dog team.

Tradition has it, that when the dog teams run up and down Mountain Hill in their training, the golden dog has been known to bark furiously, but this phenomenon may be explained, possibly, by the fact that Quebec is very liberal so far as prohibition is concerned. During January and February Quebec is the headquarters for winter sports in Canada. Every winter sport known is indulged in, and one may spend a week taking in these sports and looking over the various scenes of historic interest where Wolfe and Montcalm fought and died to settle the destinies of what is now the Dominion of Canada. REVELSTOKE SKI- JUMP ISOBEL COURSIER CHAMPION WOMAN SKI NOMED REVEL STOKE NELS NELSON, WORLD'S MARK WILKIE Has the ceiling for aerial navigation already been rescued? Is the record of 42,470 feet above sea level, twice reached by Capit Hawthorne C. Gray, who died during his last flight to that altitude, the ultimate to which man may soar in his exploration of the heavens? These questions are being given serious consideration by government scientists as a result of the peculiar "coincidence" in Capit Gray's last two flights, on each of which his barographs registered identically the same height. This identical reading was considered so strange as to cause a careful rechecking of the barograph record. But the result remained the same—42,470 feet, or slightly more than eight miles above the earth! Two theories are advanced in support of the suggestion that the ultimate "ceiling" was reached by Capit Gray. The first, based on the identical height of his flights of May 4 and Nov. 4, is that the lifting power hydrogen is exhausted at that alti- Revelstoke, REVELSTONE SKI- JUMP 180BEL COURSIER CHAMPION WOMAN SKI JUMPER, REVELSToke The town of Revelstone nestling among the Selkirk Mountains in the broad valley of the Columbia river, in British Columbia, is noted for two things: its National Park, situated on top of Mount Revelstone, and its world famous ski-jump where world records have been made and up to the present date not surpassed. The Revelstone Winter Carnival extends from February 5-10 inclusive. During this celebration the fourteenth annual ski-jump tournament takes place on February 7-8. The famous hill, where the jumps are made has a total length of 1,780 feet with a runway of 500 feet. The distance from the take off to the farthest point 11 which a safe landing is assured is 280 feet, or 40 feet beyond the present world record. --- NO.15 MUSIC CELL Nels Nelson, a brakeman on the Canadian Pacific Railway, established his world record jump of 240 feet in 1925. The woman's record jump of 84 feet was also made on the Revelstoke ski hill in 1922, by Isobel Courser. a record which still stands. Little children in this mountain town who can do little more than walk begin to ski as soon as there is sufficient snow and they are brought up to think no more of skiing than the average child thinks of walking. The children have their own nill and little jumps from which they graduate one by one. Revistoke has an unusually large skating rink for the size of the town and there are four curling rinks. The dates for the Band Winter Carnival are from February 4-11, making it possible for sport enthusiasts to take The record of 42,470 feet set by Capt Gray is 3,678 feet or more than two-thirds of a mile—higher than the airplane record recently set by the Italian, Renato Donati. Donati climbed for 40 minutes and descended in 36. The reading of Capt Gray's log and barograph shows he climbed for more than one hour and remained for more than 15 minutes at the 22,000-foot level. The last 470 feet was then made by throwing overboard the radio batteries as final ballet. ki-Jumpers NELS NEILSON, WORLD'S CHAMPION - 240 FT. passes. Canadians are great towers of the out-of-doors and winter sports are an important factor in the lives of young people in this land of the maple leaf. Quebec and Montreal are the two eastern centers for sports. Winnipeg in the middle west and Banff and Revelstoke still farther west. Western Canada has an abundance of sunshine and the weather is all anyone could desire for it does not freeze and thaw alternately postponing special competitions or trips, but remains fairly even temperature. Canadians and Americans will soap realize the futility of traveling long distances and spending large amounts of money to participate in sports in Norway, Sweden or Switzerland when there are so many delightful winter resorts in the Dominion of Canada. ```markdown ```
