A SIMPLE GLIDER, MADE FROM BLOTTER.

The first machine that ever real
ly floated through the air was u
glider" The present day machines
have been built on principles sug-
gested by the glider, and 1t is well
for you to also start with the glider.
For by experimenting with a sim
pie little glider you will learn more
Of the real principles of flying than
you could ever absorb from any
book
And it's best, you know, that you
should learn these fundamental
principles, for the knowledge of
them is going to help you a whole
lot when you build your machine.
Now take a look at Figure 1. It
represents just common blotter-
or a piece of cardboard about the
same size would do as well-with
a strip of cardboard (P) or paper
clip or two (C) to bring the center
of weight of the blotter to the
point CG about a third Of the dis
lance from the front edge Of the
paper on the middle line. Then
bend on this middle line so that
both sides slant up little as In
the picture of the front view. That
gives the wings what Is called
the "dinedral angle" which will
balance it sideways.
If it don't work right ut first
something is the matter with the
paper clip weight. Readjust 1t and
try again. Remember what | said
about patience. If it wabbles as 1t
swoops explain to yourself the rea-
son for it. Maybe one wing Is .
little heavier than the other. Put
a drop of tallow on the light wing.
or tear off a piece from the heavy
one, to correct any evil tendencies.
In making a toy glider be sure
that the center Of gravity" is at
the "center Of wind pressure. :"
This is the secret Of all flight.
These terms are not hard to un-
derstand. Take your blotter ana
draw lines, crossing In the center
from corner to corner. This Is the
center of weight of the blotter.
Dropped to the floor It will not up
set, for the center OF gravity ID
also the center of air pressure. But
liz you give the blotter a shove for
ward the center Of wind pressure
will move forward as the air hits
the front edge harder than tho
rear. This upssts the balance. and
. 1t whirls to the floor. So we have
to adjust that paper clip to keep
. the center of gravity, or weight
| and the center Of wind pressure
together.
Another way to accomplish the
same thing would be to add stick
. for a keel sticking out forward tc
add weight, as is shown by Fig. q
i This was the first step in the
evolution of the aeroplane.

FOREMAN ROCKEFELLER, HERE
YOUR EVIDENCE

The white slave grand jury in New York, under John
Rockefeller, jr, as foreman is doing great work
1t is making fight against the awful traffic in young
girls which W. T. Stead exposed in the Pail Mall Gazette
20 years ago-and went to Jail for 1t.
We have grown calous in 20 yearsfor we are not
shocked as then We have grown more broad minded IN
20 vearsfor we are sending nobody to jail for publishing
the facts We have not been reformed by the dreadful
revelations made by Steadfor the traffic Is still gong on
Mr. Rockefeller asks for information for the grand jury
from ANY citizen officer, or other person. having IN
formation traffic in women for immoral purposes
We will tell you. Mr. Rockefeller the criminal respon-
sbe for it ALL Here's your evidence. not as to SPECIFIC
sales but as the agency which has kept this incredible
thing going for 20 years after the Stead revelations Tor
20 centuries before the Stead revelations and Will Keep

grand jury has handed in It's reort-uness 1t Is indicted
and convicted and executed
YOU Mr. Rockefeller. are IN position to do more than
any other living to lndlc and convict ana execute
this monster which is behind the Manden Tribute to the
Modern Babylon Not your grand jury, but you alone
as an individual.
You have noticed that the evidence laid before you
shows the victims of this traffic to be in all cases the
daughters of very poor families Have YOU thought why
JUNCTION to your soul that this because the daughters OF
the poor are made of Trailer clay than the daughters OF the
rich Do not think So The destruction of the poor IS
their poverty. These girls become human merchandise
because they poor.
Cure poverty, and you make possible for young men
to marry and lead wholesome sexual lives instead OF lives
which finally make them the customers OF TINS deVlS
trade.
Cure poverty and you the narrow and miserable
lives that drive girls to desperation III which they listen
to the stories of the PROGRESSES.
Cure poverty and you cut off both the demand and the
supply of the white slave traffic and in a generation 1t
will be over, forever.
And poverty comes of monopoly. The earth yields
abundance for all, but few men, by ownership OF the
planet on which live, take from the stream of wealth
it flows from the mill of labor, and leave for aborers
only the meager share which sufces for existence under
the awful competition of andessness unprivege disn-
herance, observation-disclosures.
Of all these monoposts, Mr. Rockefeller you and your

Yes, you can make flying ma

many. l am going to tell you in
as simple terms as possible how
the worlds best fliers are made,
and you can take your pick of the
bunch and make one that suits

And you are going to get a whole
lot of satisfaction over it when you
see that device of your own crea-

realize that you are one OF the

And this machine you are to

altogether probable that you will
solve new problems in aviation for

that you may win not little fame
for yourself.
And the best part about it is that
it isn't going to cost you whole

About equipment:

That's all. But notice that wore
