Despite the torrid heal a record breaking throng jammed the grounds to marvel at the wonders that have come about in Ohio during the relatively short time of its cxistancc-— 150 years. Here the, products of a great stale are proudly on display for the. world to see and admire. The sum total of Ohio products, industrial and agricultural, are, greater than that of most countries — and this only one state in forty-eight. Two things occur to us; One is that God has been generous in blessing this land with rcsourscs. For this we must thank a devine providence that defies under­ standing. Second, man lias carved for himself here, a free world. Here he is free, to work and produce with the loots God has given him. Once a year we pause to lake note of our progress by bringing together the product of our free labors into the great fair. The gifts of God are His to give or take away. The gift of freedom for mankind can only be supplied by man HTmself. Will Ohio still be free at the end of the next 150 year period?

The National Aircraft Show is being held in this area ns a major event of the Ohio scsqulccntennlal celebration and to give national recognition of the first 50 years of powered flight since the invention of the air plane by Wilbur and Orville Wright in Dayton, in 1903. Estimates maintain that the show will attract more than 200,000 per­ sons from all over the country to the big municipal airport just north of Dayton, where there Is a Junction of U. S. Routes 25 and -10. The show is directed by a state wide committee of representatives of the Armed Forces and of Indust­ ry, An exhibit of new aicraft and devices will be held in the hangers of the Field. Top Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine officials, together with Air attaches from virtually every nation on enrth are expected to attend. All air events will be staged by jet planes, the exclusive weapons of the Armed Forces, and the ob­ ject will be to set new speed rec­ ords and to present top formation flight’s as well as to display the latest and best in planes and eq­ uipment. Gov. Frank J. Lnusehe, ns chief executive of the Buckeye State which gave flight and light to the world- has joined with President Eisenhower in the year’s salute to the Wright’s and will attend the show along with members of the Ohio Legislature and of the scs- quicentenninl commission.

There will be changes in the pro­ gram each of the three days. Inquiries concerning the even should be addressed to Benjamin Franklin, general manager, Hotel Biltmore, 21-1 N. Main St,, in Day- ton, The Sate Director of Education al­ so added a word of caution to motor­ ists In connection with school buses. Cars following or approaching school busses should be well under control to Insure the safety of school child­ ren. Drivers arc also reminded that after the school bus moves on there is always the factor of a child run­ ning onto the highway and therefore caution is necessary. PROTECT OUR CHILDREN Auto drivers—please be careful of school children! That’s the urgent plea of Dr. Clyde Hissong, state di­ rector of education, who said that the opening days of school mean ex­ cited youngsters who may not al­ ways be as careful as they should In crossing trect. ’Any motorlt approaching a school zone should automatically slow down said Dr. Hissong. In Ohio we will have 100,000 klndergartners this year and In the first grade a total of 165,- 000. These boys and girls arc enter­ ing a new world and in making the adjustment they may forget to look up and down the street.’’ A the same time Dr. Hissong cm- haslzed the fact that he driver edu­ cation program in many of the sec* dary schools was a good start In the right direction. He added that care­ ful driving can’t begin too soon and driver education courses stress that idea constantly.
