The Call of Kansas
Surfetted here with beauty, and the sensuous-sweet perfume Borne in from a thousand gardens and orchards of orange-brown berries, this tropical paradise is one of the realest ocean pounding and tugging away at the shore — I lie on the warm sand beach and bear, above the cry of the sea, the sun.
Calling me.
Sweeter to me than the salt sea spray, the fragrance of summer rains; Nearer my heart than these mighty hills are the wind-swEET Kansas plain. Dearer the sight of a bry, wild row by the waylee's dusty way, the plains of Iowa, where I grew up; the plains of Texas, Say the hold poinsettia is, and the burden of pepper trees, The sunflower, tawny and gold and brown, is richer to me than these, And rising ever above the song of the hoarse, insistent sun, Of Iowa grasses,
Calling me.
Kansas, beloved Mother, today in an alien land.
Calling me.
Kansas, between Mother, today in an alien land. Yours is the name I have lily tapped with a little of wood in the sand; You are the name that is graven, hard and deep, on the core of my loyal heart. O, Higher, clearer, and stronger yet, then the boom of the savage sea.
Esther Clark Hill.

Detroit's Aspirations to Dominate Aviation Promote Production
Are Results
Perfection of Various Models and Quantity Deliveries App Results
(United Press)
Detroit, Jan. 23—Detroit, already capital of the automobile industry, has set out to secure an equal domination over the world of aviation.
The same group of industrial leaders responsible for the centering of the automobile industry here is now concentrated upon the manufacturing and manufacturing. There is a striking resemblance between the city's present aggressive aeronautical tactics and those which the earlier automotive industry. It happens that conquest of the automobile industry by a relatively young group of men finds them in their own city, either equally attaining field 16 master.
In a general way Detroit's conquest of commercial aviation had its premiere with quantity production of Liberty motors during the war. Her other major factories, also, continued largely to the American quads of airplanes.
Following the war the motor girl gained definite commercial aviation recognition with development of the first commercial manufacturers of monophanes. This company has now been taken over by the Ford Motor Company, and in the past 20 years the company delivery of planes, four in number, to the Florida Airways Corporation, for inauguration of America's first passenger and freight airlines.
Meanwhile, the Packard Motor Company perfected a water-cooled aircraft engine; the Ford Motor Company perfected an air-cooled engine; and the Rickin-backer Motor Company brought out another air-cooled engines. The Ford and Rickin-backer engines have yet to be manufactured. The Bühler-Vileira Airplane Company announced perfection of a collapsible-wing biplane. Another airplane company, headed by "Eddie" Stimson, an aviator of 15 years ex-planes, has been under way on a new type of enclosed passenger-carriage plane. Numerous amateur experiments are at work on aviation problems, under the imposition of Clarence H. Powell, of University of Detroit, won the "home made" speed contest at the International air races in New York last fall by flying his air fighter 76 miles per hour for one gallon and seven gills of gasoline.
In the dirigible field, the Aircraft Development Corporation has completed its engineering on an all-metal dirigible, plans for which have been submitted to the United States Navy Department.
Still another Detroit aviation concern, the National Air Transport, has obtained the government air-mail contract for the Chicago-Kansas City Airport and the Dallas-Fort Worth airport of Ford all-enal metope transports to open operations.
