OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Sessions in the Cairo public schools
will be resumed again this morning
after allowing the pupils to enjoy the
regular Christmas and New Years va
cation which lasted 10 days this time,
school having closed Dec. 23rd. This
vacation has always been and prob
ably always will be the most worthy
as well as the most enjoyed of all the
holidays that occur during the entire
school year. One proof of its general
Worthiness lies in the fact that COM
ing at the time it does it serves as a
rest from the arduOus duties that
school boys and girls experience dur
'ng the first four months of the school
year. Again another assertion of its
Worthiness is especially i evident 70

THE WORK THAT'S NEVER DONE

Instead of destroying paper bags
keep them in a convenient place near
the kitchen stove or sink and you will
soon see the many uses to which they
may be put
Instead of keeping a stove rag it Is
much cleaner to put the hand inside a
paper bag and wipe the stove and
then burn the bag.
When cleaning up the dishes after
a meal it is very easy to scrape the
dry scraps into paper bag, close 1t
and drop into the garbage can. This
helps to preserve hhe cleanliness of
the latter.
A heavy paper bag makes a good
clothespn bag, when you haven't q
better one, as it can be pinned to the
apron with a couple of clothes pins
so as to hold it open, and it possesses
the advantage of never having to be
washed or mended.

AERIAL NAVIGATION IS A FACTOR
WHICH MUST BE DEALT
WITH
PROPELLER IS BROKEN
EUGENE 3. ELY, IN cuRTlss b.
PLANE, MAKES SUCCESS
Full FLIGHT

Ft. Monroe, Va.-Aaerial navigation
proved Monday that 1t is a factor
which must be dealt with in the naval
tactics OF the future, il the successful
flight made by Eugene B. Ely in a
Curtiss biplane from the deck Of the
cruiser Birmingham can be taken as a
criterion. From Hampton Roads, the
scene forty-five years ago of another
epoch In the history of naval warfare,
when an ironclad proved its superior
ity over the former type of fighting
vessel, the aviator flew across the
lower end of Chesapeake bay, landing
on the shore opposite from this fort.
The aviator, shortly after o'clock,
glided from the platform erected on
the front of the cruiser, swooped
down until he touched the water, then
rose rapidly and was off in the direc-
tion of the Atlantic. Four minutes
later he was lost on the eastern hori-
zon, and an instant later had landed
safely on Willoughby spit.
The impact with which the machine
struck the water after its thirty-seven
foot drop from the cruiser SCARED one
of the propeller blades, and small
piece was split from the blade. but
the speed of the aeroplane was not
lessened and 1t darted away with ex-
press train rapidity on its flight.
Intermittent rain throughout the
day, several small hail showers and a
continuous fog almost compelled the
aviator to postpone his attempt. But
he was determined to prove as he said
after the flight, that he could accom-
plish more than had been expected.
Ely said it would be an easy matter
for an aeroplane to alight on a ves-
sci either while the latter was moving
or standing still. Naval experts who
Witnessed the flight expressed their be-
lief that the navies of the future must
take the aeroplane into consideration.
