WILL LECTURE
ON AER0pLANES
Third of Library Series
Dec. 9 by Henry Nicely.

The third of q series OF lectures
to be given Saturday night, Decem
Der 8. In the public library audi,
torium In Jefferson street promises
to be the most interesting and In
structive htus far. Henry M. Nelly
one of the most widely acquainted
"AeroplanesNWhy and How They
Fly" He will appear with complete
working models Of the best knowr
machines now used for flying.
Mr.. Nicely is a man whose aetivi-
ties in aeronautics and aviation have
earned for him a reputation and 81
admitted standing as an authority
that are national. He was closely
identified with some of the very first
public exhibition flights made in
this country, and it Is declared has
ever since had unusual facilities for
extending his knowledge and foI
gaining that practical experience
which makes his views SO author
~itative.
Mr.. Nicely was one OF the founders
of the Aero Club of Pennsylvania,
He was first chairman OF the Coun-
ell Contest COMMITTEES, is chairman
Of the board of directors Of the
Aero Club of Pennsylvania, honor
airy president of the Henry M. Nicely
Aero Club and its aeronautic and
aviation editor of the Mcclure news
paper syndicate.
The lecture on "Aeroplanes-Why
and How They Fly" is very simple.
1t is SO clearly expressed and easily
understood that 1t is suited to audi
ences composed of all ages. In three
instances it has led to formation of
junior areo clubs among boys. The
lecturer begins by showing how re-
ally simple are the principles upon
which aeroplanes fly, explaining
them by such we'll understood exam
pies as the boys skimming a stone
over water or flying a kite. His
working models are OF standard
types with levers that operate, wings
that are warped, ailerons, controls,
rudders, etc.
An imaginary flight is made, the
lecturer telling OF every step from
the time the aviator mounts his seat
until he lands again. Lantern
slides are introduced. The dangers
of aviation are last taken up, the
pictures illustrating some of the ia
nous wrecks.
The lecture closes with moving
pictures Of some of the most thrill
ing flights ever made, showing some
of the most reckless of aviators in
their dangerous feats and during
the progress of the film the lecturer
explains everything and again draws
upon his almost limitless fund OF
personal anecdotes.

erlatendent II. c.. Kruse, Of the Iowa
central. who was here this morning.
MY kruse has recently returned from
Illinois and ocher states east Of the
mississippi and he says crop conditions $
IN illinois are practically the same as
they are here.
According 70 his inform alton the Weld
of wheat and oats and other small
grains viii vary greatly in different
counties and sections Of the state thru
which the Central operates. In places
the wheat and oats will thresh out a
large yield. In other places it will be
out fair and in still other places the
crop Is very poor. The yield OF small
grains depend upon the amount Of rain
that has fallen in those localities In
places where there was plenty Of rain
the harvest Of small grain will be a
good one Where there has been but
very little rain the crop is very light
and poor. Precipitation in the state
during the growing season has been
very uneven. some places getting plenty
OF rain while only very infrequent
showers have visited certain counties.
AS whole the corn crop promises

Ho1u Wild Animals Are
Secured For Me1Qoeries

Few persons have any conception OF
the great expense involved in getting
together a comprehensive geological
exhibit. One reasons that the jungles
, of In dia and the wilds of Africa are full
OF wild animals where it is only neces-
sary TO trap them and send them TO any
point desired. Why. then, should full
grown giraffe cost from $4,000 10 S12.-
600 or a hippopotamus, if Of good size
quite as much? The large dealers in
wild animals can explain the query, as
can the circus owners.
The former will tell one that no bust
ress IS as risky-that most OF the rare
wild animals come from Africa, and
that these beasts must be trapped up
behind the Zambesi, Which means 1000
miles OF toilsome journey before even
d start is made.

trapping expeditions must be expert
