It SCARS LIKE A BIRD
AeropIane Successfully Tried
in This Vicinity.
STEADY IN HIGH WINDS
Worlds Endurance Record Equaled.
Local Business Men Have Faith
in the Machine.

1t Is claimed that there has been an
aeroplane flown in the neighborhood Of
Washington which has solved the prob
lem OF automatic equilibrium and prac-
tically that of soaring flight. 1t is said
that the machine. after equaling the
worlds endurance record of little over
three hours, was brought back to Wash
ington and dismantled.
The inventor of the new machine is
DIR. William W. Christmas OF Washing
ton. There is associated with him some
local business men who have seen the
flights and who have faith enough In the
new machine to build one for commercial
purposes.
1t is claimed that the aeroplane Is
nothing like the Wright or any of the
foreign machines: that it takes advan-
tage of the action of the air currents
SO that the plane is automatically stable
"a the air and does not depend on fex-
.a-g wings or auxiliary machinery for
maintaining it's balance. In fact, it Is
said that the plane is steadier In a high
wind than in relative calm and that It
can fly in any wind short of an actual
gale that would drive birds to shelter.
Try-out Satisfactory.
The plane was tried out some weeks
ago. it is said. on the Virginia side OF the
Potomac and proved quite satisfactory
There were present only a few spectators
and the machine was sent aloft several
times The longest flight was said to be
that of three hours. One of the secrets
of the ability Of the machine to stay aloft
for long time is the fact that after 1t
has once started 1t can be driven at
very low-speed and can almost soar like
q bird.
It is claimed that very high speed can
be made. but the point of the greatest
value. If the reports be true. is it's ability
to so very slowly and still stay aloft
This ability would be particularly val
liable in military observation.
Not Ready for Exhibition.
The projectors OF the enterprise are rot
willing to say when the machine will be
ready for public exhibition. but they say
that they intend to get It to the next In
ternational meet, whether it Is held near
Washington or somewhere else They
say that there is no question Of their hav-
ing machine flying by next May. II the
meet Is held at that time.
AS to the type OF engine employed. 1t
is said that simply an ordinary automo-
bile engine was used on the last trial,
but that an order has been put in for a
new aeronautic engine that will be ready
for delivery soon. and will be the first of
its kind to be seen IN this part of the
country.

"JIM' HOGAN IS AGAINST
 OPEN GAME
Special from United Press.1


 New York. Nov A---Jim'' Hogan the old Yale tackle and captain and sne of the men whose fame on the yridiron will forever live in Yale am 1als. cane out today with the sur 3rising suggestion that the "open rane'' in football is responsible for most of the present day injuries
 The great fault is with the forward 9zss." Hogan says .-The secondary defense line moves far back from the main defense, at which the attack may .fuddenly be aimed The secondary defense Is then useless and the one man in the main defense at whom Inc mass play of the ofrense is aimed has little or no chance of turning the attack and usually goes down under m irresistible crush
 Another unfavorable thing for the men in the first defensive line. is that they cannot tell by their opponents rormarlon what the play will be and Ihey are forced to keep their heads massed until the ball gains full play and the minute they do so they are runeff

The third was much better. the whole Bridgeport team picking up a little better than the Meridens knew how. Brooks of Meriden carried off all high honors with single of 236 and totals Of 610.

Chance to Buy a Town.

Salina, Kan, Oct. 2O.-A rare op-
portunity for any person desiring to
own town was afforded today,
when the village of Shipton, nine
miles from here on the Union Pa
cific railroad, was put up for sale
at auction. The village is a lively,
bustling little place with a railroad
depot, grain elevator, half a dozen
stores, postoffice, churches, dwellings
and all of the other accompaniment
of an up to date community. AS the
advertisement reads, the owner has
good reasons for desiring to sell. The
entire village is located on the big
wheat ranch of w. S. Irwin, who
has made so much money he is going
to retire. AS an inducement to pros
pective purchasers Mr.. Irwin offers
to throw in his farm machinery and
a fe wacres of his wheat farm to any,
one who will buy the village.

They Didn't Have to Change.

During the years in which our pure
food laws have been put into effect
there has been a great hurrying and
scurrying on the part of the food man
ufacturers to change their methods to
make them conform to the law.
The Quaker Oats Company is con-
spicuous exception. 1t was admitted
that Quaker Oats was as pure and
clean as possible and that it was an
ideal food.
1t is SO cheap that any one can af-
ford it and SO nourishing that every
one needs it. The result of last years
experiments at Yale and other points
where food values were tested is that
Quaker Oats has been adopted by
many persons as their food on which
they rely for adding vigor and endur-
ance of muscle and brain
The Quaker Oats Company meets
all demands in the way it packs
Quaker Oats; regular size packages
and the large size family package;
the latter, both with and without
china. 10
