has been found an excellent one
for the teaching of pupils. 1t has
been found possible to instruct a
| tyrO so that he can make satisfact-
DRY flights, including turns, after
but five lessons. That the machine
has a considerable degree of inner
ent stability can be seen from the
photograph which shows M. Ansel-
me Marchal flying with his hands
off the control wheel and raised in
the air. The new machine can also
take the air after a run of but IT'S
feet along the ground, whereupon it
will rise in the air at an angle OF
80 degrees, while carrying a normal
load Of $50 Kilograms 551.15
pounds) of useful, weight or under
a loading of 3 IL pounds per square
foot. The maximum load that can
be carried is considerably greater
than this. On account of its con-
siderable weight-carrying ability
this new Voisin biplane can be used
for bomb dropping, or for carrying
passengers. The moving of the
center of gravity Of the machine so
far forward has taken practically
all the weight off the tail. AS a
consequence this is practically fiat
and set, if anything, at a negative
angle when the machine is in flight.
The chief advantage of the steel
tube construction is that the ma
chine can readily be diSmOunted
and packed in two boxes of 1865
and 317.8 cubic feet capacity. The
time required to reasSemble it is
not more than two hours.
In connection with the problem
of automatic stability it is interest
ing to note that Lieut.. Dunno, Of
England has succeeded in obtaining
such excellent fore-and-aft stability
with his peculiar V-shaped biplane
that he has flown in circles for
several minutes and made note
with lead pencil while in fight.
The new Antionette monoplane,
also is fitted with weighted horizon
tai rudder which keeps the ma
chine on a level course when in
flight without the pilot having to
steer it. Thus it can be seen that
considerable progress is being made
in the direction Of an automatically
stable aerODlane.

Program for U. D. c.
Meeting March 18th.

The March historical meeting of
the Ben Hill Chapter U. D. c. will
be held Friday afternoon at $3.50
o'clock at the home of Mrs. Wilson,
on Jessamine St The following
historical questions and answers
will be given:
/. Why was it of first Importance
to the whole country that our state
should not be overrun by a Federal
army? In what month did the
enemy resume active military oper-
atoms on our northern border?
2. Describe the skirmishes
around Rocky Face Ridge. While
the Confederate army recuperated
at Dalton, what preparations did
the men make to meet the enemy?
What was the relative strength of
the two armies?
3. Give an account of the pro-
ceedings of the extra session of the
legislature called by Gov. Brown.
4. When did what is known as
the Georgia campaign begin? Who
commanded the Federals? Who
was the Confederate leader? Tell
of the destruction between Chatta-
nooga and Ringgold. Why was the
possession of the State Road con-
sidered so important by the FEEDER
ais?
5. How were the Confederates
protected at Resaca? What were
the losses on both sides at this place?
During the conflict in the forenoon
there had been some furious fighting
over a four-Gun battery. After the
war, when the dead at Reseca were
disenterred 170 Confederates were
found on this spot and 1890 Fed
erals. Such a continued fire was
kept up that neither side had an OPP
portunity for removing the guns.
They were left between the two
armies until dark, and then seized
by the Federals. These were the
only field trophies captured by the
enemy during the entire campaign
to the Chattahoochee river.
6. Where did Gen. Johnson have
his reserves? How did the enemy
force a passage over the river and
place themselves nearer than Gen.
johnson to his base of supplies?
7. Describe the contests around
Cassville. Why did Gen. Johnson
abandon Allanton Pass? Give an
account of the furious and bloody
battle at New Hope Church. What
was the result of every effort made
by the enemy against the position
occupied by the main Confederate
army?
s. How is Kennesaw Mountain
situated? Where had the Confed-
crates erected signal stations? How
long did the struggles around Ken
nesaw continue? What noble bishop
general was killed? What was the
result of the great battle of Ken
nesaw on June 27? After two I'M
successful assaults upon KennesaW
what did the Federal general do?
9. In what battle did Gen. Sher-
man come near losing his life?
After Gen. johnson, with greatly
inferior force had been fighting
Sherman for seventy-four days, had
checked him at various points, had
killed and wounded of the enemy a
number equal to his whole army,
where did the two hostile armies
rest in July? When was Gen. Hood
placed in command?
10. Describe the battles around
Atlanta. Tell of the raids of Stone
man and McCOOk.
