Invisible Air Currents
Play Big Parts in
Flying.

Nobody could see how it did il.
Invisible air currents probably play
a part in the phenomenon. but that
is not all. The secret also lies
partly in the structure and action
of the feathers and in the control
of the bird over the curvature Of
its wing surfaces.
Existing aeroplaneS are a good
beginning. but only beginning.
and before they can be perfected
we must carry them through Il
course of evolution resembling that
which the birds have undergone
during the long ages that have
elapsed since their reptilian an
cestors first developed wings and
learned to fly.

Study Birds to Discover
Secret of Their
Flight.

Messrs. Housay and Magnan, of
the Paris Sorbonne. have, with
this object in view. investigated
the flight of POO birds. belonging
to seventy-fve different species.
They have discovered many very
interesting facts, which may serve
to guide the inventors of future
aerOplaneS.
One thing that they have found
out, which greatly surprised them.
is that the ratio Of the motive pow
er Of birds to the supporting sur
face of the body and wings varies
inversely instead of directly. This
means that if the supporting sur
face is large the motive power is
prOportionately small. and if the
supporting surface is small the
motive power is proportionateIy
large. Or, to put it in different
words, the larger the wing surface
the smaller the motive power. and
vice versa.
This fact may prove of great use.
for hitherto it has been assumed
by the makers Of aeroplanes that
the best flying machine must be
that having the most powerful mo-
tor and at the same time the great
est lifting power per unit of sur
face. Exactly the opposite rela-
ton is found among birds. The
best flyers have, by far, the fee
blest motive power and carry the
smallest weight per unit of sur
face.
Direct comparison has shown
that if an aeroplane of thirty feet
spread, and carrying about four
pounds per square foot. is reduced
homologously, or part by part. to
the dimensions of a bird of three
feet spread, it can carry a weight
of only about two-ffths of a pound

a \ English philosopher once
n wrote book on the human
hand. showing its inimita
bic adaptations to its purpose, and
its almost infinite capabilities as
an instrument, or tool.
There is no doubt that many of
the most ingenious and effective
mechanical inventions that have
ever been made are based upon.
and were probably suggested by,
the wonderful capacities Of the hui
man hand and fingers. Inventors
have been able to follow these
hints from the structure of the
hand because, by daily use, all the
various functions of its different
parts are perfectly understood.
The wing of bird is as marvel
Gus an instrument as the hand of
a man, and if its action could be
as easily comprehended it would
show us very quickly the best way
to construct Il flying machine. Tn
fortunately, since we were not
born with wings. there are many
things about them which are mys-
terieS to us.
Inventors well understand this
fact, and special studies of the
wings of birds are being made for
the purpose of getting more light
upon their action in order that the
knowledge thus acquired may be
applied to the Improvement of
aerOplaneS.

PRESCRIPTION NECESSARY
 EACH TIME.
Norwich Druggists Find Provisions of
 New Drug Law Are Strict.

The state has now devised an ac- curate method of keeping track of the amount of drugs sold and should be able to detect persons who violate the law with comparative ease. The new law, copies of which reached the local druggists a few weeks ago, is very strict, and provides that no person shall sell furnish or give away, ex- cept to 8 licensed physician, pharma- cist, dentist or veterinarian, any drug ih quantities of more than onehalf grain, unless on prescription of a licensed physician And no person is allowed to sell drugs to these men unless they receive a written order, which must be retained by the seller and nled- All persons making sales, except druggists, must report to the commissioners of pharmacy once month. While the law gives the doc tors a great latitude in prescribing. it provides that no person other than physician, dentist, jobbeT, wholesaler. manufacturer or pharmacist shall have more than five grains in his possession at any one time.
 Under the new law, when a doctor or druggist buys drugs in quantities he must fill out a specially prepared order blank which is to be kept and sent 10 the state pharmacy board

SHOT UP PEACEFUL OCCUN VILLAGE
Succession of Revolver Shots Disturbed the Quiet of That Community Monday Night-Constable Filliger Rounded Up the Two Culprits Tuesday and They are Now in Safe Place

For few minutes on Monday night when series of revolver shots rang out to disturb the usual quiet of the peaceful village, Occum seemed to be transformed into a western mining town, or such, at least as are DOT the neighbOrhood of the storm center were ducking and beating quick re- treat to shelter. It was only mo- mentary eruption, though, and noth- ing more serious than a shattered win dow was the result of the bullets that were flying in the Occum atmosphere. AS an aftermath, however, Constable Filliger appeared at the police head quarters on Tuesday afternoon at o'clock with a couple of doughty pris- oners under guard. These, who gave their names as John ToboslSi and An drew Clabutz, were duly locked up and will be presented in city court this morning for breach of the. peace and perhops other charges.

No one went around to investigate the trouble. for no one had a fiery desire at meeting a few more bullets at close range When Tuesday morning came, the vil- lagers fioeked to the mill and Tobocki and Clabutz also reported for duty But their fellow weavers in the Toto kett mill were rather shy of the erst- While bad men and their immediate vicinity in the woveshot was deserted It ended in their discharge by the com pany in order to get the other oper- atiVes back to their looms in security

Fin ally a fellow machinist volunteered and they captured the men without a sign of struggle They were docile and in a repentant mood and did not look nearly as vilIainous as their ac- tions of the previous night would in dicate.

Three or four times a week. regularly he says, he is called out for matters of more or less import, and as censor of. the modern dances, as protector of the peace and in his other capacities as guardian of the law he has anything but a joyful time himself He says he is glad he sees the end in sight.

FIRE DEPARTMENT HAD
 TWO CALLS TUESDAY. Chimney Fire on Elizabeth Street Did No Damaae-Grass Fire in Uncas- vile.

By a telephone message at 8.10 Tuesday evening the fire department was called out for it's eighth fire of the month, two of them bell alarms, to the house owned by Calvin Swan and occupied by Mrs. Rose l.. Spencer, at No. 24 Elizabeth street. The auto chemical from the Central station and Chemical Co. No. responded. A chimney was found to be the seat of trouble. and the blaze was put out by the West Side company with a three gallon tank of the chemical.
 Chief Stanton received a telephone call for assistance from the home of c. H. Roy, on the Horton farm, at Un- casviIle, late Tuesday forenoon, as a fire in a huckleberry lot seemed to threaten the house Chief Stanton se- cured permission from Chairman Thomas H. Beckley of the fire commits sioners to send assistance, and the auto chemical with six men was de- spatched to the farm. Men residing in that section were fighting the blaze when the firemen arrived, and the flames were soon extinguished twelve gallons of chemical being used. The wind was blowing away from the res idence which was in no real danger The auto chemical left at 11.35 and re- turned at about 1920. About two acres of brush were burned over. The trip was made in 12 minutes
 Monday evening at 7.30 the depart ment was called out for a chimney fire in the house of Nannette Darlington, Nc. 54 Fountain street. Three gallons of chemical were used to extinguish the blaze. and there was no damage.
