Would Have Changed History.

If We had had the aeroplane dur
ing some of the great campaigns of
history there might be some different
stories to tell concerning the ex-
ploits OF many of the world s great
captains. The winged planes would
have given both armies exact and
wide information as to each others
movements and would doubtless have
ruined and made many military repu
tations. The great generals of the
past fought on the sea plane or the
land plane. What would have hap
pened had their tactics beer compli-
Gated by the presence of a thousand
wasps of war that had to be guided
against the enemy or their activities
guarded against? World Napoleon
have died on the Island of st.
Helena had the aeroplane been in
existence in the year 1915? Would
his dream of empire have faded with
the breaking of News charge up the
slopes of Waterloo?

Engine Runs of Track.

Monday morning, while switching
ears back and forth in the yard of
the basket factory, Vandalia en-
CINE ran off the track, the cause be-
ing bad rail. As the ground there
was very soft and mucky the heavy
engine wheels sank in quite q ways,
making it hard job to get it back
on the track. After several hour s
efforts, the engine was again where
it belonged and went on with its
work.
