established by Dr. r. d. Earle, vet
Urinary surgeon. DR.. Earle is called
on to end the sufferings of upwards
of 800 pets annual lily, principally cats
and dogs. After much experimenting
he is convinced that electrocution is
the most humane method of killing
them.
DIR. Earle says that while most of
the most despised of men are electro
cuted, the reverse would be true in
the case of animals In electrocuting
a dog an electrode will be placed on a
wet sponge at the back of the animal

spinal column to the tip of the tail.
A current of greater voltage than that

Americas youngest licensed aviator,
assembled to a height of $500 feet in
a biplane with his mechanician at
Cicero field yesterday. The height was
within a few feet Of the record held
by Claude Grahar1e-White and made
at Boston last year.
The effort to break the record is be-
lieved to have failed only because the
aviator had neglected to ink his baro-

ground. When the Paragraph was ex-
amined It was found that the ink had
run out after $500 feet had been
reached and there was no way of tell
ing whether the record had been
equalled. or broken.
