SHARP
Is Praised By The Scientific
American

The Scientific American, conclud.

on the subject of the needs of better

tion, compliments the work of Con-
gressman Sharp in its behalf as fol-
lows:
Hon. w. G. Sharp, in an able ap-
peal to the house OF representatives
for the encouragement of aviation,
recommended the appropriation for
an aeronautical laboratory and the
Aero Club of America has, with the
endorsement of prominent scientific
bodies, pledged itself to secure the
endowment of such an establish
ment."
The speech referred to was deliver
ed in the house of representatives,
recently, and affords a most valuable
and interesting contribution to the
knowledge Of the day upon this fu-
ture method of transportation. In
1t the representatives urged the es.
tablishment Of an aeroplane expert.
ment station. Mr.. Sharp, who, in spite
of his active business career, has a
great liking for the sciences, early
came to see the possibilities for use
fulness In the new field of enterprise.
The classification of these fields Of
utility and his treatment of the sub
ject called forth the admiration Of
his colleagues as well as the most
favorable comment from scientific So
cieties and publishers.
Mr.. Sharp hopes to be able to Sc
cure government school of aviation,
for which he has introduced a bill In
congress. The army officers, who
are connected with the service at
Washington, pronounced the location
and conditions prevailing as ideal for
such an institution, as both the hy-
dro-aeroplane as well as the aero
plane could be used In tests and prac.
tical instruction.

II Is altogether unnecessary to put
a name under the above cut to identify
1t, as It will be quite generally recog.
nized as an excellent likeness Of John
M. Woolison, the popular deputy sher.
IN Of Knox county, who Is the Demo.
cratic nominee for the Office of sheriff
No man has wider acquaintance in
Knox county and no one has more per.
sonal friends than John Woolison. As
deputy. he has been valuable assist.
ant to Sheriff Parker, and his duties
which constantly take him into all
parts of the county, have been per.
formed in most efficient manner
This counts for much in his favor in
the present campaign.
The people recognize that John
Woolison possesses the qualities and
qualifications for making an ideal
sheriff. All business coming into his
hands would be promptly and careful
ly taken care of and the interests OF
no person would be permitted TO suf
fer through any laxity or neglect or
his part. His personality is such as
to command respect for him as an of
ficer by evil-doers. AS an executive OF
ficer his duties would be performed
without fear or favor.
These traits in John Woolison are
among the things that commend hin
most favorably to the voters of Kno,
county, as will be attested on election
day.
