Through Autocustor Nows Sorvieo
Washington. May 1.—The news
from “the top of the world” that
Captain George H. Wilkins and Carl
B. Eilson, unannounced and unher
alded, had made a safe passage from
Point Barrow, Alaska, to Spitsbergen
has created a great stir all over the
world, as an outstanding achievement
and the National Georgraphic Society
here heralds the fliers aw having
broken all precedent in flying so far
South during their trip.
They flew 250 miles South after
reaching the northwest corner of
Spitzbergen. tin* most popular base
for polar flights.
An astounding feature of this
flight was that it was unannounced.
No one knew that Captain Wlikins
had started the flight. People re
membered that he had been contem
plating such a flight, but gradually
the memory was fnding.
Then, of a wudden, news came to
the Capitol that the flight bad been
made.
News of the start, the passage and
the finish came all at once.
Never was there a more sensational
report!
This is the first air-flight over the
Arctic Basin by a heavier than air
machine. The expedtion was pri
marily for scientific purposes. Peary
had thought he huw land-signs north
west of Greenland out in the Arctic
Sea and the existence of this land
has been the question ever since.
Capt. wilkins accordingly flew to
the right of the Pole for the region
where land was believed to be in evi
dence, nnd wired the Geographical
Society thn* he had found no land.
Thus Wilkins, in addition to per
forming one of the bravest feats in
history, a feat whirh made it neces-
rwry to undergo many hardships. Ins
erased a scientific question mark.
And it is believed he will he able to
give the world o'.hcr scientific results
of his journey. There are many sci
entific question* involved as to ocean
currents, soundings, temperatures,
atmospheric conditions, and so forth.
The National Georgraphic Society
will .add a very great deal to the sum
believes thn*. this latest Polar flight
of general geographical knowledge.

REV. THOMPSON PREACHES AT
STATE PB'SON SUNDAY
Dr. Thompson, the efficient pastor
of the First Preshyterian church at
MilledgeviUe, was with the chaplain
at The State Farm Sunday after
noon April 29th, and preached for
both the white and colored women.
He was accompanied by the Misses
Beatrice Horsborough and Christine
Cottonor who rendered beautiful in
strumental muaic. These services
were greatly appreciated, and a fine
impression was made.
As the two services following each
other rendered an aftermeeting im
practicable at that time the chaplain
invited Dr. Thompson to go with him
on Tuesday afternoon and preach at
his mid-week service. This he did.
At the close of the address an invita
tion was# given and fifteen young
women and girls came forward and
remained for an after-meeting. Five
of these accepted Christ as their
personal Saviour, declaring it to be
their desire and purpose to live Chris-
lain lives. The other ten were those
who had previously taken a stand for
right living and were members of the
Religious Association. They came in
to the prayer circle to renew their
consecration and that they might re
ceive further Spiritual help. I great
ly appreciate the hlep which the pas
tors and friends at Milledgeville ren
der from time to time in this uplift
work.
