CHAPTER vi
a Valiant of VIrqinia.

For a long time John Valiant sat
notionless, the opened letter in his
hand, staring at nothing. He had the
sensation, spiritually, of a traveller
awakened with rude shock amid
wholly unfamiliar surroundings. He
had passed through so many conflict
ing states Of emotion that afternoon
and evening that he felt numb.
He was trying to remember-to put
two and two together. His father had
been southern-born; yes. he had
known that. But he had known moth
ing whatever of his fathers early days,
or of his forebears: since he had been
old enough to wonder about such
things, he had no one to ask ques-
lions Of There had been no private
papers or letters left for his adult
persual. It had been borne upon him
very early that his fathers life had
not teen happy one. He had seldom
laughed. and his hair had been
streaked with gray, yet when he died

The early British steamboat Comet,
were it in existence today, could be
passed through any one of the four
tunnels of the Aquitania, the latest
and largest British liner, it is said.
The Comet was built in 1912 for
navigation of the Clyde and was forty
feet long. The Savannah, first steam
propelled vessel to cross the Atlantic,
would look like a tugboat alongside
one of the modern passenger vessels.

Tearing up Of paving is something
that the city administration should
put an absolute stop to. Of course,
where paving has been down for five
or more years, the natural trend of i'm
provement makes tearing up neces-
sary at times, but in the case of new
paving such as has been put in this
fall there ought to be no compromise.
Service pipes and gas leads and the
like should have been put in before the
bricks were laid.

Some of the railway systems of the
United States have reached point,
owing to legislative reduction of rates
and other restrictions. where they can
not obtain money for improvements
upon any terms. This condition is
driving the railways toward govern
ment ownership, in the opinion of H,
U. Nudge, president of the Rock
Island system. Mr.. Nudge believes
that if restrictive legislation continues,
the railways cannot exist, except I'M
der government ownership. in which

THE SALOON SITUATION,

The closing Of the saloons Of Des
Moines under circumstances which do
not promise well for their re-opening
is a circumstance that may we'll at
tract the very serious attention of
those who believe the saloon should
be permitted, and Of those who are re.
joicing at the turn Of events that has
forced it out of business.
On thu one hand, the saloon must

drawn tighter. Everywhere it is the
same story, more and more dry terri
tory, less and less wet territory. Not
only is this true of Iowa, it is true OF
every state north, south, east and west.

States, but it is true Of European coun-
tries. There is a universal movement
against the open drinking place.

JUMPS 1000 FEET IN
SAFETY FROM AEROPLANE

I Airmen are beginning to paw more
attention to safety devices than was
the case in the early history of avia-
tion and new devices for insuring the
stability of aeroplanes, for protecting
the airman against injury in case of
accident, and for descending in safety
from crippled or unmanageable
machine are being developed through
out the world
A spectacular test of one of the
new safety devices was made in Cal
ifornia on June 20, and is described
in the August Popular Mechanics
Magazine. A young woman jumped
from aeroplane a. height of more
than 900 IT, and landed safely on
earth without the slightest injury.
The apparatus she used is kown as a
"safety pack 1t is parachute of
very thin but strong silk fastened to
mosh made of Italian hemp and so
folded into canvas case that it onens
at tile slightest pull The entire pack
weighs but II lbs and is designed to
be attached to the shoulders of the
airman or his passenger, ready for in
stant use.

DEVELOPMENT WORK
TO Be CONTINUED

That the policy of the Portland
Commercial Club to continue the cam
paign of the farm development
Throughout the state is in high favor
with the business in ersets of the city
is evidenced by the fact that among
property owners of Portland the pres
ent campaign has met with more
prompt and favorable support than any
movement of like nature that has
been conducted in the past.
A few weeks ago the Commercial
Club set out to raise fund of $3.50, =
900. to be expended in development
work throughout OreQon during the
next three years and so successful has
been the effort that at the present
time the fund is we'll above the Sl00, :
900 mark and it is believed by those
having the campaign in charge that
the full sum will be pledged within
the next month. III the list of those
who have given definite sums are 160
firms and individuals representing
virtually every branch of business
activity in the city.
