HOW AIRPLANE HAS GROWN
Wonderful Result That Have Been
Achieved In the Small Span of
Thirteen Years
In view of a recent achievement
in long-distance aero flights and the
uses to which the flying machines
have been put in the European war,
day a few weeks ago marked the thir-
ieenth nirfhdv nf th .irr,lnp Or.lv !
thirteen yeara and what wonders
have been accomplished! Warfare
has been revolutionized and surprise
attacks rendered almost impossible
by this marvelous invention.
A couple of young men who owned
: bicycle repair shop in Dayton, 0.,
irued their spare time to "tinker" on
;a flying machine. The neighbors
considered them crazy but harmless.
.Finally they hit upon a contraption
to which twin propellers and a 16
horsepower, four-cylinder gasoline
motor were attached a winged af
fair with a movable or elevating rud
der in front, which looked like a
cross between a large eagle and a
nightmare. This machine they took
to the Kill Devil sand , hills, near
Kitty Hawk, N. C, and on Decem
ber 17, 1903, made four successful
flights, on one of which the airplane
traveled a distance of 852 feet. And
now aviators ga-winging their way
across Half a continent. - -
SURELY A COLD CHRISTMAS
Testimony That Carried Weight Given
by Last Speaker In a Conference
of Gifted "Rememberers."
Wundel Cold? Not a bit of it!
"Why, I remember last Christmas,
hen I was in California, the steam
from a passing engine froze hard
and fell on the line in sheets !
SmylerThafs nothing! In 1889
the electricity in our telephone ex
change got frozen, and when the
thaw came along all the machines
were talking as hard as they could
for over six hours !

on remember was in '84, when the

The truth is that Molly Pitcher

It was conclusively shown in
