ton of the science of aviation. The
Chicago Aero club in this particular is
following closely the lines laid down
by the Aero Club of America, which
has for its basic principle the making
of mere sport subsidiary to utility and
advancement. Hence it is that it has
enlisted hundreds of thousands of cap
ital contributed by men whose eco
nomic genius forbids a questioning of
the correctness of their foresight.
These men do not fly machines. But
at their desks they write out the
checks that stimulate pilots" and in
cite inventors to their best efforts.
They pay the expenses, precisely as
the grocery men" in the days of the
Argonauts "grub-staked" the pros
pectors for gold and other precious
metals.
Among the other prizes that will be
competed for this summer is that of
fered by the Automobile Club of Amer

there is the $4,000 prize offered by
Edwin Gould for the most perfect and

Grated individually or together. There
are two big prizes for long flights.
One of these is $4,000 for a flight
across the continent, and the other
100000 for flight from New York to
ST. Louis.
In England the biggest prize that
has been hung up thus far this year
is for the 1,000-mile race around Great
Britain, and the winners purse is $780,
600 On the continent the French
governments competition for military
aerorlanes has $4,000 in prizes The
prizes at miscellaneous meets and cir

Belgium amount to S150,000. There

They are having aviation meets in
Hawaii, in China, in Japan, in Aus

showed the Newark mosquito fight
ers spreading oil, particularly in
sewer basins. Mr.. Smith said that
not until about the middle of May
were the people in the section both
cred to any great extent with mos
quitoes. At that time, he added, the
breeding place on the Kearny mea-
dOws that had been overlooked, was
discovered. Much progress was being
made toward stamping out this breed
ing place, he stated, but mosquitoes
from there got such a good start that
for the last few weeks they have been
causing more or less annoyance. They
are capable of flying, he stated, forty
miles.
In speaking Of the work being done
by Newark under the direction of
John W. Dobbins, Mr.. Smith told of
a device gotten up fer the perpetual
oiling of sewer catch basins 1t con-
sisted of an oil can with a long wick
hanging over. The device was fast
ened to the top Of the sewer basin.

Missouri Man Digs Some Interesting
Facts Regarding Origin of Saw

Kansas City, Mo.-The fact that a
woman, Miss Priscilla Wakefield, was
the founder Of the first savings bank
among English-speaking people was
one of the interesting things which w.
S. Webb, cashier of the Missouri Saw
ings association bank of Kansas City,
mentioned in an address before the
members of the local chapter Of the
American Institution Of Banking at
their regular weekly meeting the
other night.
There has been a great deal writ
ten to prove when and where savings
banks originated" said Mr.. Webb. "a
French writer has asserted the idea
originated with Hugh Delestra in
1910; an Austrian author has insisted
the first one was founded in Bruins
wick in 1875, and similar institutions
are said to have been founded in Ham
burg in 1898, in Berne in 1887 and in
other cities of the continent of Eu-

K HIS is going to be the biggest
year yet for aviation. Not
only in America and Europe,
but in far-off countries like
Japan air craft are being built
by the hundreds and scores of exhibit
lions are planned for the next few
months. In this country and in Eu-
rope alone total of more than $780,
900 is offered in prizes for aviators.
No such wonderful progress in a new
means of transportation has ever been
witnessed in the world before. The
flying machine is coming into general
use more than twice as rapidly as did
the automobile. Although travel by
land and water will not be rivaled by
come, yet the airship is likely to out
strip all other methods of rapid trans
portation within the next year or so.
America is still far behind Europe,
both in the giving Of prizes and the
flying of machines This, however, is
not likely to continue to be the case.
Not even France is showing more ac-
tivity in aviation than America is be-
ginning to. The list of prizes that are
open for competition thus far this
year in America totals almost $780,
000 Under the auspices of the Chi
sago Aero club, there will be tour
nament that in the wealth of it's prizes
and the distinction of its contestants
will exceed anything the world yet has
seen. The most expert of pilots will
be in charge and the most famous Of
inventors will there meet in contest.
The prizes are fixed at minimum of
100000. At the very first meeting of
the club, called by Harold F. McCor-
mick, $4,000 was subscribed, and
since then the total originally desig-
mated has been made up.
Like all the other contests of this
year, it will be cross-country meet
that is, it will be a long-distance affair
and not merely an exhibition. 1t will
be utilitarian, and nothing will be per-
mitted in the way of competition that
will not have for it, intent the evolu-
