BOSTON, July ill-Many a New lEngland youth who fared forth into the cities of the country in quest of fortune undoubtedly gets an undes- icribable feeling of loncsomeness as the harvest season in the hay ﬁeld draws night. And also, {they probably ‘are many of the old-‘timers, still in ithe country, who sigh for the earlier days when every farmer was ex- fpected to "do the honors" to this men 1116 employed to work in the hayﬁelds. i The "IIOIIOIS" consisted of sumplw

BOSTON, July Zlr-Shlpmient of swordﬁsh to Boston would appear to Atlantic ocean ﬁshermen to be as in- credible as "carrying coals to Now- castle." Boston is recognized as the greatest swordﬁsh market in the country. Two thirds or even more of the total catch made on Georges Bunk and elsewhere is landed here. Yet, a dozen carloads were sent here from San Diego and San Pedro, Cal. during the last five months of 1928, and it is believed that the i029 ship- ments will be much larger.

For many years the swordﬁsh off the coast of Southern California has been looked upon almost wholly as a sport ﬁsh._ Expert anglers from all parts of the world have visited Cata- lina for the express purpose of land- in gthe giant swordﬁsh and tuna of the nearby waters. It had been only witliln the last three or four years, however, that California market ﬁsh- ermen have made any serious at- tempis to utilize the swordﬁsh as sea food.

Prices paid by the Boston markets apparently were the magnet that drew the attzntion of the California ﬁshermen. While on the Paciﬁc coast last year swordﬁsh brought only l0 to 15 cents a. pound, Massachusetts quotations to the ﬁshermen ranged from 15 to 40 cents.

The fact that the swordﬁsh is an excepti uialiy easy ﬁsh to ship is an- other factor that makes the cross- continent trade feasible to the Cali- fornians. Their ﬁsh are placed in in- dividual boxes surrounded by ice and usually reach Boston in good condi- tioh.

TOY BOAT INSURANCE PAID

A fourteen-year old boy recently collected $40 insurance for the total loss of his toy boat in a London pond. Lloyd's had sent experts to try to locate and salve the vessel, but their efforts were unsuccessful, and the

claim, one of the most unique of the

century, was paid.

Generaly swlbchel iwas carried to the hayﬁelds in one ‘or two gallon stone jugs, wrapped in _.wet cloths and placed somewhere in ithe shade. By keeping the cloth wet. ,tlie mixture would remain cool for f hours. i While switchel was originally de- ‘vised as a strictly man-alcoholic, and peculiarly cooling 'drink, some farm- crs who believed their men cut mow hay when warm‘ than when cool, more or less literally fortiﬁed the contents of the jug with. New Eng- land rum, which was cheap. pure and plentiful. Such employers had little difficulty in obtalnins plenty of hands during harms “m9- _______________

Housed for the Bounding Deep,

I Perils of Transocean Fl ' MR8’ (The Gazette M ‘ cal) The airway across the Atlantic continues to take its toil. It is an in- evitable plrt of the price of aviation progress and accomplishment. The attempted transatlantic flight of the Polish aeroplane Marshal Pilsudski ended in a crash over the Azores, and the killing of its commsn-‘cr, Major Ludwik Idzikowski, one of the best pilots in the Polish Air Force. who had spent two years in prepar- ing for this flight. Accompanied by Casimir Kubals, he took of! from the Le Bourget airport, near Paris, at about the some time on Saturday last that the French aviator, Cap- tain Dlcudonne Coste, started on an effort to fly from Paris to New York. According to early reports, "during the ﬁrst part. of their race," both planes kept in touch with land sta- tions and steamers by their ndio sets. This is another instance of the descriptive writer's freedom with his pen creating a wrong impression of an event. The observation quoted, “racing? have called forth from Reni Recover, manager of the French fliers, a disclaimer that a transat- lantic race hadbeen staged by the French and Polish fliers. Events quickly proved how far removed ex- peditions of this kind must be kept from all notions of racing. Weather conditions at the start of the double flight on Saturday were found to be favorable for aerial navi- gation, but adverse winds of hurri- cane force soon developed, and Cap- tain Coste showed sound Judgment in turning back to France and safe- ty. The Marshal Pilsudski, having a greater range than that of the French biplane, the Question Mark, appears to have succesfuily ridden through the hurricane to the Azores and it was when trying to ﬁnd a hav- en on the Island of Grscioso that. the machine and its commander came to grief. Major Idzikowskfs death brings to eight the number of lives sacriﬁced in attempts to fly from Europe to America. Fourteen months ago, Captain Charles Nun- gizsser and Captain Francois Coll.

two daring French aviators, started

from Paris to fly to New York, and were never heard of again. On the last day of August, 1927, Captain Leslie Hamilton and Colonel Fred- erick A. Minchin, ivith Princess Low- ensteln-Vvertheim as a passenger in their plane, lost their lives in like manner when trying to negotiate a passage between England and Can- ada; and last year Captain Waiter C. Hincl-icliffe and Miss Elsie Mac- iisy perished during a transooesn flight from Great Britain to Ameri- ca. Participants in these adventures. knowing well the risks they run, de- liberateiy put iiheir lives second to achievement, and although the world may not necessarily be s. better world for any success that eventually shall crown their efforts, some of the best that is in the world is re- vealed in their undaunted spirit of idealism, and in their determination to make the achievement one day possible. Each recurring event car- ries its lesson. Witness the case of Captain Costa. Notwithstanding the cruel repulse he had just experienced and the tragic fate of Major Idzi- kowski, he said: "I certainly will try again; but this flight has taught me some lessons, and I am going to pro- ﬁt by them in my preparations for the next attempt." Commander Byrd admirably described the state of mind of these intrepid pioneers of the air, when he wrote, some time ago, that those who survive repeat their efforts, and others copy them, "bo- cause they know that some day what they attempt, will be done. t . . Man," he added, "cannot stand the lure of the ‘almost impossible.’ Ho longs to push back further and fur- ther the limitations of his activity, of his life. Call it adventure if you will. I call it the conqucrablc spir- it of man's soul which will not ad- mit of defeat." Conquest of tho transatantio serial passage out to west is bound to com in tho and.
