amusement world. From that nucleus
Gentry Bros shows have developed
until 1t now takes ten cars TO trans
port them from city To city.
Their animals, Instead Of being con-
fined to two families Of domesticated
creatures, now embraces dozen.
Heading the list Is troupe OF train
ed Asiatic elephants. Thence 1t goes
down the scale until the common
house cat is reached. Tabby. while
the smallest Of the educated animals,
is by no means the least attractive
creature.
Between these two widely separated
families comes herds OF ponies, dogs,
and even sheep and hogs.
Every day during their weeks stay
in Detroit, Gentry Bros unique parade
will leave the lots at 10 o'clock In the
morning and wend its way toward the
downtown district. There will be two
performances daily, 2:15 and S:1o

BELL TONES TO LIFT AIRsHIP.
Owners Theory of Overcoming
Gravitation to Be Applied.

DETROIT, Mich, May 2S.-Dr. Orville

the Shakespeare plays, and +. W. Hen
nnger, former foot ball star and present
trea surer and manager of the Sheet Steel
Stamping Company, are the main stock
holders in the Standard Aviator Company,
incorporated yesterday.
The company proposes To build an air
ship to be equipped with a set Of bells
with which to produce the vibrations that.
according To DR.. owens theories, make
the force that overcomes gravity and
raises weight from the ground.
I'VE have been experimenting Two
years" said DIR. owen, and have a set
of seven bells in the Sheet Steel Stamping
Company shops from which he have OBJ
tained vibrations sufficient TO lift mass
of steel of twenty-five tons weight.
I'VE now propose 10 build a double
deck arship, about sixty feet long and
forty feet wide, to be equipped with bells
for lifting and machinery for propelling.
Did you ever see a meadow lark leave the
ground and 20 up seventy-fve feet in the
air in a straight line and then drop back
without moving a wing? The lark does
that by vibratory motions Of the body.
That is just what we expect 10 do with
our bell vibrations.

PARENTS SHOULD NOT SHOW
FAVORITISM IN HOME LIFE
One Child Should Not Be Neglected For Another
and Rivalry Will Be Prevented.

In these enlightened days. when parents
give more intelligent thought TO the rear
ing of their children than was the case
in former generations. the tendency of
favoritism in the family is less common.
but even now one sees 1t occasionally,
and, observing results, marvels how 1t
can ever exist.
1t isoften remarked that fathers show a
decided partiality toward their daughters
and that mothers manifest a preference
for their sons. This. however, is not so
disastrous a form of favoritism as that
which centers itself In one child, making
him or her the idol of the family Some
times It Is the boy or a baby. girl who Is

centered. but it produces a pernicious eff

A clever device for preserving the Golf

hat was seen recently.
AS to the haiti was used with. the brim

beehive. OF course in order that such a
shape should set comfortably upon the
head this support. consisting of wires
from the brim ran up into the crown,
otherwise the structure would drop over
the eyes and the nose; in fact the entire
face would be covered. But these wires

sides. held the millinery in place The
supports were cut away in the back and

talk of the favorite child as possessing
many virtues and constantly insist tina.
he or she does nothing wrong, while the
younger is made to feel that she rarely
does anything that is right. This is a
shocking comparison for elders to make
and inevitably causes the wrongdoer to
warmly dislike her paragon sister or
brother.
This attitude in home not only breeds
dislike but Encouragement. for when par
ents persist In such partiality the child
who is always blamed while hearing the
favorite praised gets into the way of
thinking that as she was not born per-
feet, as apparently her sister was. it is
no use trying to rise to such a high
standard. This is a pitiful state of mind
for any child to develop. as 1t often turns
one of a naturally happy temperament
into brooding. morose. supersensitive
creature, marked perhaps for life by a
disbursement never possible to over
come.
When parents find the ,chara cteristics OF
one child more attractive and lovable
than those of another their duty is to
particularly devote themselves to the less
appealing one. giving her every thought
and care that will develop her and bring
her up to the level of the other In this
way the children will become equally in
teresting and have an equal opportunity
