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.

April 26th, 1928. 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. E. C. ATKINS. Chaplain.
