C Two French Airmen Were Pp in the .Machine and it Cut lUp Many Ca pers Which Each Thought the Oth er Was Guilty of Marrow Escape From Death. (By Associated Press.) Fort Worth, Texas, Aug. 24. An airplane running wild in mid-air and cuttin? "sill the dwing caipers that such a machine is capable of performing, wMle two skilled French aviators sat calmly in their seats each believing the other was directing tihe flight, re cently amazed American aviation of ficers and cadets here who watched its startling gyrations. Eventually, after hair-raising lootps, idives and side-lips in which the air plane almost grazed the earth, it dove nose-first into the ground driving the engine back through the fusilal?e up to wfrjare one of the aviators sat, hut injuring neither of ttoeim. Tihe two French aivliators who so nsirrowly escaiped death were Le Mlaiitre and Soulier who have brought down several Gertman airplanes in the fighting on western fnont to France. Le Maitre was in the back seat and took the plane from the ground. The machine had climbed oi few hundred feet when Soulier raised !hds hands to his head, tho usual signal of a pilot tlhat he will take control of the plane. So Le Maitre sat at ease. Then for eight minutes the airplane twe a performisimce tho like of which 'never before had been seen by the spectators. It comprised the wfnfole known category of stunts and- aided I new ones, with amazing suddenness, i Those below gasped in wonderment when the machine suddenly dutved within a few feet of the ground. It seemed impossible that anyone would handle the .machine with such dexter ity and reckless abandon. ; The spectators, however, saw Le i Maitre and Soulier smiling calmly. Suddenly the plane crashed down ward and buried its nose in the earth. The aviators stepped calmly from un der the demolished plane and faced each other. Whait do you think you are doing, anyway; trying to scare me, eh?" said Le Maitre. What was I trying to do?" echoed Soulier. "What were you trying to do to me?" Then it developed that during the eight minutes they had been in the air neither aviator had touched the controls. Soulier had been merely adjusting hia helmet when .Le Miaitre saw the mKvememt and mistook it for a signal that Soulier intended to take control of the aiiprlane. t (While the machine was running wild, each avi ator thought the other was trying to have a little fun at his expense. "I was determined not to exhibit any feeling," said Le Maitre when the situation was explained. "I thought Soulier was trying some stunt to test my nerves. WS S YOUNG MEN REGISTER TODAY.

' PLAIN KM L IRON BEST TONIC Costa But a Fractioa What Weaker Preparations Sell For A Spoonful ' Ia a Class of Water a Dose. The absolute proof that medicinal iron would help the blood and streng then people wonderfully has caused chemists to perfect more or less effi cient iron tonics and more or less efficient tablets. For most people, however, the wri ter would say that just plain highly concentrated Acid Iron Mineral is better, far cheaper and stronger and goes from two to six times as far. A bottle of Acid Iron Mineral, kept handy and a teaspoonful poured in a glass of drinking water after meala, makes a delightful, very un usual and highly beneficial tonic and strengthener, and if the blood needs enriching and purifying it would be hard to find anything that does it better or rids the system of rheuma tism and kindred ailments quicker than just plain concentrated Acid Iron Mineral, which ia the name for noa-aicobolic natural iron. ' It also has a beneficial effect upon appeUta and digestion, and the kid nays soon shew its effects.

CHEAPER TO PREVENT THAN HAVE DISEASE Large Number of People in the State Are Taking Advantage of Anti Typhoid Treatment. The State Board of Health is still receiving notices of anti-typhoid campaigns to he waged in counties of the State as the result of the eforts mode some weeks ago, aided by Gov ernor Biekett land the State Council of Defense. In some of the counties tihe camlpiaigns against typhoid fever will continue tfarough September, and the indications are that a larger num ber of people in the State will this year receive the benefit of thii immu nization afforded by tihe treatment lhin in any previous year. Thej oaimipiaign against typhoid fever the most proventabl of all the pre ventable diseases, is receiving much encouragement from the results at tained in the communities vlnch have had anti-typhoid dispensaries in previous years. Especially is the ar my a shining example. With nearly three million men under arms either France or in the United States ty phoid fever has been unknown among them, because of compulsory anti-ty-ohoid vaccination. And it ipays, in dlollors and cents. T'fis was strikingly brought out at one of the dispensary ipoints in Nash sounty some weeks lago where much enthusiasm was aroused by the re marks of Mr. W. iS. Dozier, who after the crowd assembled, said that he hoped every one present who had not been treated recently would be, and added that three years ago at his fiither's home typhoid attacked the family wftten they had one hundred and ten barrrls of corn in the crib and a smoke-house full of bacon, that was when friends came and nursed and cauRlht the fever. They had num erous friends and they came and were very kind, but when the day Of set tling nip came, there was no corn in the crib, no bacon in the smoke-house, one member of the family was dead, with lan eight hundred dollar doctor bill, and they never knew what the other bills amounted to.

Norm Carolina Public srvice UNnpa BULLETIN NO. 23 ly WHAT BECOMES OF YOUR NICKEL? In our recent bulletins we have referred to STREET PAVING how it costs the Company over $226,000.00 and how we had saved you property owners over $139,000.00 in paving taxes. We discussed TRANSPORTATION and indicated how many miles of this commodity could be purchased for a nickel. We now propose to take the nickel apart, divide it into percent ages so you can see for yourself just how it is used and where it goes. The following table sets out the distribution of the nickel of a percentage basis as shown by our books: City. Maintenance. Transportation. Gen. Expenses. Taxes. Interest. , Total. Greensboro 10 h 48.5'e 9.9 6.5 32.2 107.1 High Point 15.3 34.2 10.6 3.3 41.5 104.9 Salisbury . 7.9 36.2 12.2 3.6 42.5 102.4 Concord 10.7 43.5 13.7. 4.0 45.0 116.9 Average 10.7 43.5 10.8 5.3 36.5 106.8 This does not include depreciation. Dropping percentages and talking in dollars and cents the above table tells you that for ev ery dollar the Street Railway Department of the Company re ceived during the year ending March 1, 1918) it paid out on the average of $1,068. What Do You Think of The Proposition? We are your Public Service Company therefore our problems are yours in so far as they affect the service rendered. This is a local enterprise, controlled and operated by the Members of the Community served. You desire all local Industries to be success ful you would not ask your Merchants to sell you goods at a loss, or wish us to sell Transportation below cost. You desire and are entitled to receive good service. You wish us to pay members of our Organization a living wage; they are Home Folks spending their entire earnings among Home Merchants. The problem which confronts us is simply "How to, make our Income equal our Expenditures." Each and every Merchant in the Community has been forced to consider the changed condi tions which entailed increased costs of conducting their business they pay more for help more for every article thiey buy, and as a result, they must charge you more for what you, purchase from them; as evidence, compare the prices you now pay for fuel, groceries, meat, food stuff, clothing in fact anything and every thing you purchase, with the price you paid for the same article a few years ago. Ask your merchant why he had to increase his prices. His ans wer may help you to understand our problem. e Up to the present we have been able thru savings effected by the installation of a new type of street car, to stand the drain caused by the changed conditions, but all of these savings fcave now been absorbed by the recent advances in the wages given our train crews, and the increased cost of material N.
