Dr. Claude A. Smith, city bacteriolo-
gist of Atlanta, Ca, who has been the
guest of his brother, DR.. C. l.. Smith
here, and Who delivered an exhaustive
talk on the hookworm at the rooms of
the Chamber of Commerce Tuesday
night on receiving word yesterday
that the plans were ready in Atlanta
for the city tuberculosis hospital,
started home at once. This hospital
has been the dream of several years
with DR.. Smith, who along with his
other studies and labors for the pres
ervation of life and improvement of
health has been fighting for an institu.
tion where cases could be isolated and
placed under treatment. His dream
came true after an alderman of At
lanta came to him for consultation
when a son was stricken with the
great white plague. DR.. Smith told
the alderman frankly that it was pos.
sible that the son may never have
been afflicted with the awful disease
if other cases had been isolated.H The
alderman thought over the matter Sc
riously and communicated his conclu
sions to other officials with the result
that the tuberculosis hospital is now
an assured fact.
DR.. Smith before leaving the city
had a good deal to say of conditions
here and his remarks were compli-
mentary to the beauty spot of the gulf
rather than otherwise.

below Dover castle signaled the fler
the spot where the daring aviator land
ed. When about one year ago Bleriot
founded his flying school at Pau, lie
Blanc became its director and organ
lied the institution with fine methods,
turning out many brilliant pupils,
among them being Morane, Chavez and
Aubrun. AS soon as he could find time
he entered some of the big competi-
tions himself, winning much fame at
the Rheims meet. He attributes his
success, however, to his experiences as
balloon pilot.
Although it was only a year ago that
James Radley became interested in
flying, he was the first aviator selected
by the Royal Aero Club of the United
Kingdom to represent Great Britain in
the international speed contest recent
ly held in America. His first public
appearance was at Abergaveny, south
Wales, and was the result of bet. A
friend wagered horse against 500
that Radley did not have the nerve to
make fight alone, and he not only
rode home on the equine, but had with
him as well a good sized purse that he
had won by his work In the sky.
The story of how Hubert Latham
became an aviator is an early romance
of aviation. His flying career is that
of the Antoinette monoplane. He gave
the machine its success, and the mono
plane made Latham. Several years
ago q poor but brilliant mechanic in
vented the strongest and lightest mo-
chimes were laughed at in those days
he did not dare ask any one to build
an airship In which to try out his In
vention. Later 1t was arranged, how
ever, but the flying machine into which
1t was placed always left the ground
so quickly that it was smashed, and NO
one dared to ride 1t until Latham came
along one day and said
"I'll try out this affair for you and
continue flying in 1t until either break
my neck or show that with such a
motor 1t is the easiest thing In the
world to make flight of several hun
dred miles"
Not once, but fifty times, was La
than wrecked in the machine, but sue
cess finally crowned his experiments,
and his work made the whole world sit
nD and take notice that something
mare than toy had at last been found
by the aviators. His present daring
and confidence are due entirely to his
early contempt for death.

One of the foremost American avia-
tors, who is regarded in England as
one of those fiiers who do the sport

pure point of view OF the sportsman.
Mr.. Drexel is native of Philadel.

a pupil of Grahame- White abroad.
During the English tournaments DreX-
el took first rank with all the English
fliers, winning many purses and at
one time holding the height record. At
Bournemouth, Drexel, next to Leon
Morane, won the most prizes. He beat

the air have been talked of all over
the world, is just twenty years old
and was making flights before he
reached this age. Being Dayton (O)
boy, he witnessed many of the early
experiments Of the famous Wright
brothers and one day exacted prom
ise from Orville Wright that later on
he, too, would be allowed to try a
fight. Early last spring, when the
Wrights were looking for aviators to
demonstrate their machine, young
Brookins suddenly reappeared, and
Orville, recalling his promise, took
him in and developed him as a flier.
The first notable public appearance
of Brooliins was at the national flying
tournament ut indianapolis, where he
made some remarkable altitude flights
of over 1000 feet His greatest feat
of this kind was his climb to 6,100
feet at Atlantic City, where he also
made some thrilling flights over the
sea. Later he made cross country
fight from Chicago to Springfield, ILL.,,
covering Q distance Of 1S6 miles with
but two short intermediate landings.
Another youth to gain fame as an
aviator and who is not much older
than Brookins is Emile Aubrun, sent
here to represent France at the recent
international aviation tournament.
When lie Blanc first opened his avia'
tion school Aubrun went to him and
said:
"Look here, old man, 1 am trying to
decide whether I'll become an aviator
or go into the mercantile business.
What is your advice on the matter"
"Well, the best way to settle that
point" smiled lie Blanc, sis to take you
up and see how your nerve is" And
