S P E N D TO HAVE

I N C L U D E D a m o n g the speake r s who have appea red before Lo-

well Ro ta ry Club recent ly . Is S. L. Marsha l l , editor of the Republ ican-N e w s of St. Johns , who spoke con-s t ruc t ive ly on var ious phases of n e w s p a p e r work and communi ty service. I n the last issue of his pa-per . Mr. Marsha l l gives ano the r t h o u g h t as follows:

" E v e r y town, no m a t t e r how smal l , needs to spend a ce r t a in a m o u n t each yea r to p romote wor thwh i l e public unde r t ak ings . In a small town It m a y be a band concer t or a homecoming. In l a rge r p laces the promot ion goes all the w a y f rom needed schools, hospi t -als. hotels and new Industr ies . P ro -mot ion is everyone's bus iness—and so o f t e n It works out tha t it is re-g a r d e d nobody's business. If a bus iness concern or individual c a n n o t give Its t ime, it can help h i re someone to do it fo r t hem. I t Is a legi t imate and needed pa r t of t h e progress of every town—large or smal l . "

Mrs. Ef f ie Cox

T OJ IKINLIX hooked tils chin iver the padded rlrn of the cock-

pit and glumly surveyed the ground below tliem. "Gosh.*' he muttered, wltlidruwlng to the protection of the windshield, "what rotten coun-try !"

For fifteen minutes they had been Hying over a vast bed of volcanic sla.-. It was a jotuMed and fissured expanse of fused lava stretching In every direction as far as Donlln could see. It was known to be un-traversable by any form of surface travel.

The pilot licked dried lips as he thought of what a forced landing here would mean. "Sure crash— and even if you didn't get bumped off. where'd you be? Twenty miles to tlie ra i l road! Why. that junk'd cut the shoes off your feet before you were well started. Blast me for on Idiot! Why didn't I follow the San-ta Fe around by Rol Puerco Instead of bui t lo ' out an air line like this?"

Donlln's roving gaze settled on the helmeted head of his passenger In the front cockpit and he won-dered If he. too. was feeling the strain. Probably no t Funny chap, that passenger. Had just wandered on to the airport back at Wichita and said he wanted to char ter a plane—wanted to fly to the coas t Explained that he didn't want to go on the regular air line because he wanted to t ake his time—go by easy stages, see a little of the coun-try off the beaten track.

As he recalled the la t ter remark Donlln snorted. Well, he was see-ing a little of it. all r i g h t Then he noticed that his engine was be-ginning to run a little cool. He made a change In the shutter con-trol position and settled back.

Thump! Thump! T h u m p ! The plane was quivering to a pounding that broke through the regularity of the motor vibration. Tha t taut empty feeling gripped the pit of Donlln's stomach. He knew Instant-ly It was not a simple motor miss. It was too slow, too heavy a beat. A succession of possible causes streamed through the pilot's mind. None was reassuring.

He did not look about for a place to land. He knew It was useless. That horrible lava—and lava It would lie for another fifteen min-utes. Then they'd s t r ike the rail-road In the vicinity of Gallnp, then— but fifteen minutes! Why, It was preposterous to hope for another five the way the pounding was In-creasing In f o r c e

Yet five minutes dragged by and they were still In the air. To Don-lln It was merely the diabolical pro-longing of an ordeal which had bnt one possible conclusion.

"Any moment now—any m o m e n t " be kept thinking. He stared stralgbt ahead at the distant borl-eon, keeping the plane level and on course through pure force of hab i t

Now the lava held a morbid fas-cination fo r him. Tilting tbe plane to the right, he looked down. There It waa. Tumbled heaps of volcanic •lag as bard as diamonds and as rough as clinkers. He shuddered even as the plane was shuddering under the racking Jolts of that pounding. Donlln's Hps drew back. "Come on." he snarled, "bust loose and get It over with I" Throwing the stick over viciously, he dropped the left wing and looked down on that side. Good Lord! I t couldn't be. It was some miserable trick of his eyes.

But It wasn ' t There lay the Santa Fe tracks. The lava had been crossed. Within gliding dis-tance was a piece of grazing land. Pnll of "dog*' holes probably but It was the loveliest sight tha t Donlln could remember ever having seen.

"Miss California"

f rom th is village cu r Pilgrim F a t h - 1 2 2 0- a unique specimen of early ers sailed for America in 1620. A E n K l i , h a rchi tecture , built In the stone slab now m a r k s the spot with the simple Inscription "May-flower 1620." I t w a s a t P lymou th the game of Bowls was played to Its end by Drake, undaunted by the news of the approaching Spanish Armada, and today visitors to Ply-mouth usually m a k e first fo r the Hoe, whereon this game Is still played. The Hoe has been describ-ed as the f inest p romenade In Europe and I t Is Indeed d i f f icul t to imagine one more magnif icent . I t o f f e r s glorious views of P lymou th Sound, with the cl i f fs of Staddon on the east and the wonderul woods of Mount E d g c u m b e on the west .

The public buildings of P lymou th a re excellent, par t icu lar ly t h e Guildhall In Gothic style. The g rand hall will seat t h r e e thousand people. There a re thea t res , music halls, numerous cinemas, a muse-um. an a r t gallery, and a n aquar -ium. All k inds of out-door sport a re provided here . The Lido (or as we would call It, Coney Is land) is famous th roughout Europe.

P lymouth , with a population of 209.000. Is one of the most Import-ant naval bases in the count ry .

English Revorts When I fel t I had "done" Ply-

mouth, I boarded a Great Wes te rn Rai lway t ra in bound for Torquay, ano ther f amous Engl ish seaside re-sort. Upon ar r iva l I walked t o the harbor to t ake movies of th i s city built in the s ides of the sur round-ing cliffs. The city Itself is like any e the r resort , every th ing is high priced. Three miles f r o m Tor-quay is the quain t and lonely vil-lage of Cocklngton. I t is r ightly called the "model English village." Every th ing Is exactly the same as it was several hundred yea r s ago. I t was here I saw some of the largest snapdragons and dahl ias I have ever seen. Of course every t rue English count ry home has a lovely garden at the f r o n t door. The houses made of red clay brick with tha tched roofs of s t raw, sur-rounded by pract ical ly every k n o w n flower and bush, cer ta inly m a d e a very pleasing sight, one tha t I shall a lways remember .

I walked back to Torquay, board-ed a t r a in leaving fo r Exe te r , lo-cated near the edge or the f a m o u s Moors of Devon. I t would be diffi-cult to find an inland resort more favorably equipped for holiday-mak ing than Exeter . The c i ty hav-ing a population of 65.000 Is situ-ated "on a hill among hills In the beaut i ful Exe valley."

Exe te r has many historical at-t ract ions. Among them a re t h e mag-nif icent Cathedra l . Rougemont Castle and the quain t El izabethan Guildhall with Its e laborate facade. The cathedral , though not one of the larges t In the country, is cer-tainly one of the most beaut i ful . The N o r m a n t r ansep ta l towers are unique In Engl ish ecclesiastical a rchi tec ture . The general cha rac t e r of the bui lding Is decorated of the period f r o m about 1280 t o 1329. I t possesses t h e heaviest Tenor Bell in the world.

The Guildhall Is one of the oldest In the Kingdom, having been re-built in 1330. I t s wall a r e decor-

form of a double cross, with a tower 250 feet high, and a spire rising 150 feet beyond. Oliver Wen-dell Holmes described it as "the apple of the eye of England." Cloisters adjoin the main s t ructure , and the sculptured f igu res In the Chapter House represent d i f ferent epochs in Biblical history.

On the banks of the Avon. Just below Salisbury, can be seen one of the most Interest ing of "stately homes of England." Longford Castle, built In the s ix teenth cen-tury. The El izabethan Loggias challenge comparison with archi-tec ture of I ta l ian palaces, and the sunken gardens runn ing parallel with the Avon, together with Its sur rounding scenery m a k e it a picture of surpassing beauty.

About ten miles nor thwest of Salisbury Is Stonehenge. Stone-henge belongs to the Cromlech class and Is the climax of the meg-allthlc monument . I t s purpose could hardly have been o ther than a rel igious one. The da te of Stone-henge Is assumed to have existed between the Neolithic and the Bronze ages, t ha t Is to say roughly between 1700 and 1800 B. C. The "Sarsen" s tones a re the r emains of a cap of Ter t i a ry Sands tone which once covered the plain.
