Florida Panther Tree* Aviator. KscA'ImhI from a wreck od airplane, ?reed by a panther to a largo cypress tree wlioro he was forced to sj>end the night, bin clothes torn to shreds and his flesh badly lacerated, and on top of all this three days without food? these are some of the exper iences of Raymond White, youthful naval aviator. Cadet White ' wa* <? making a trial flight at CarLstroau Field, Florida, last Thursday, He lost his way over the Florida Everglades and flew until his gas tank ran dry and his plane crash to earth. He was unhunt. Waiting hy the plane until the sun set and gave hJm bis sense of direction, he started walking. After a time he stop]>cd under a cypress tree for the ulght, A largti panther came along a n*t forced him to take refuge In the tree top. There he remained until daylight, and resumed his northward tramp. He was plokd up by a Seminole Indian and piloted to a white man's ranch and from there by w?ty of buggy to a railroad station. En rout e, to the sta tion they sighted a plane which had tn>en sent out to search for White and by signalling with a sheet, attracted the flyers' attention. The plane land ed and took White aboard and return- j ed to Oar 1st ram Field, arriving about dusk Sunday. Then White ate his first meal since Thursday night. Kathleen Clarke, aged fourteen years, and six feet in height, is tho tallest girl in England. Sacrifice Worthy of tha Nam*. The word "lacrHlw" gains n?i meaning when we think of the story that til told about the three hundred children of an Armenian orphauagtfc 80 small amount of food had re?che?J the American rellof workers In charge af the orphaaago that they could give almost nothiug even to the three hum drvd. Kaeh child got only a small pleeo of bread and a few walnuts twice a day. Of course the food did not nearly satisfy their hunger, but it wax enough to keep them alive. ? When the children learned that there were huudred* more In the near by villages who could receive nothing at all they voluntarily gave up the walnuts. Bafore each meal they dropped their nuts Into u sack In one corner of tha room, and when it was fall soma oua of them would carry It to the frantic crowd In the *tr**t. Could thera be a more generous sac rifice than that? ? Youth's Companion. Airplanes' Good Record. Probably the most remarkable thing about civil aviation In the past year has been that not one passenger has beeu killed, or even seriously Injured, in a>liritlsh airplane throughout 1021. And this, although during the summer, between 400 and MX) people a week were crossing the channel by air,- and although well over 1.000 a week wer*1 being taken up for Joy r^les, in if his country. For this we bavfc'to than!, not only the skill of the pilots und airplane mechanics, but the aeronauti cal Inspection department and the con troller of aerodromes and Ucensea, who have made sure that only tiist? class men and machines have been al> lowed to carry passengers.?

The Story of Our States Br JONATHAN BRACE XXVI MICHIGAN ? TIK French n>l8sluu?r tea and fur traders were the fl r a t whites to pen etrate into M I c M g ft n. Their first visits to this region | date buck to 1610. It was not j until 1008 however, that the flrat actual settlement was made. , This was the mission at Sault j Sainte Mnrle. founded fry Father Marquette. Mackinac was es* tahllshcd a few years later, and < Detroit's ? growth was slow. J After the French and Indian j wars the English took over this ! territory, uud In 1774 It was for- j mall.y declured a part of Canada. < Detroit rapidly grew In impor- | tance and during the Kevolutlon * was the hase of operations for | many raids by the British and Indians against the Americans. j By the terms of the treaty of J Paris In 1783 this region became 1 a part of the United States. 1 What is now Michigan, Wlscon- | sin, a part of Minnesota^IIUnols, j Indiana and Ohio was known as ] the Northwest territory. After < Ohio was set off as a separate state the Lower Peninsula of < Michigan was Joined to Indiana territory. In 1805 Michigan be- | came a separate territory with ! shout its present boundaries. There was, however, a great dispute over a small strip of land in the extreme southern portion which .was claimed by Ohio. This almost led to blood shed, but was finally settled by Michigan releasing her claim to the disputed area and receiving as compensation an addition to the Upper Peninsula. On this basis Michigan was admitted to the Union in 1837 and became the twenty-sixth state. Michigan has a unique situa tion, as it is bounded by the three largest of the Oreat Lakes, and divided into two penlnsulaa. This gives it a coast line larger In proportion to its urea than any of the other states. It Is named after Lake Michigan, which Is the Algonquin word, "Mlchl-gan," meaning "great sea." It is entitled to 15 votes in th'o electoral college. (Q br McClure Newspaper Syndicate. ) Mrs. S. W. Wilson and Miss Charl- [ otte Boy kin, of Charleston are in Cam don on a visit.
