WANAMAKER BACKS
CURTISS FOR FLIGHT

1t is related that Isabella, Queen
of Spain, finding her husband par
simonious, pawned her jewels in or
der to assure the sailing of the Allan
tic ocean by Christopher Columbus. So
when a quiet, but impressive young
American merchant called Glenn Cur
tiss, the aviator, aside few days ago
and said: "Glenn, we aren't going
to give this up until We fly across"
it was to be expected that the speak
er was ready to go to any lengths
in borrowing money to finance trans
Atlantisc aeroplane trip.
"He can get loan from his dad,"
many might remark. But let it be said
right here that Philadelphia people
will tell you that Rodman Manamaker
is a much wealthier man than his
father. Also, before asking a loan
from dad to pay for his flying ma
chimes, Rodman might raise some
money on his life insurance. He has
$4,500,000 worth, which is more than
any other mortal, and he adds to it
quite often.
"Rodman Wanamaker, son of John
Wanamaker," is the way he always
appears in print; and as he admires
his merchant prince father immense
ly he does not complain. But the
younger Wanamaker (who is now the
only SOM, would have gained an emf
nent position in American affairs
without the boost which his name gave
him. Besides establishing the Wana-
maker Paris branch and later running
the New York store, he has made so
many amazingly lucky investments
that the fortune he will inherit some
day will be only an item in his ample
means.
Rodman Wanamaker enters the
transatlantic crossing arena with all
the enthusiasm of Queen Isabella and
with much better credit.
Lord Northcliffe, Great Britain's
leading publisher, has offered $780,
600 prize for the first crossing of
the big pond by aeroplane, so Mr..
Wanamaker has chance to recoup

Marlin, March 28.-The Giants will

start for Austin. The two teams will
not be together again until they meet
in Baltimore on April IL, from which

part Of the fortune he may have to
place at the disposal of the ingenious
Mr.. Curtiss. And he can collect &
further $4,000 from Mrs. Victoria
Woodruff Martin, an English flying
patron.
So when the Wanamaker-C -Curtiss
flyer swoops off a Newfoundland cliff
pext August with her eight cylinder
200 horse power engine chug-chug-
ging and Lieutenant Porte or some
other hardy navigator of the painless
upper air at the wheel there will be
$4,000 sitting on the west coast of
Ireland and beckoning to the steel
bird.
But if there were nothing more a,
the end of the journey than Isabella
had reason to believe lay below the
horizon of Cadiz, Mr.. Wanamaker
would have said just the same "Glenn
we aren't going to give this up until
we fly across" For he belongs to the
class of young Americans born rich
who do things; who play six, but
work ten hours a day; and who ac-
complish what they set cut to do.
Aeroplanes have long been one OF
Mr.. Wanamaker's hobbies, but he has
many others-life insurance, automo
biles, yachts, fine paintings and the
American Indian. This last should
stand at the top of the list.

Results Obtained
From Advertising

Hon. P. L. Flanagan is over from
Reno in connection with the sale Of
some acreage near the shores Of
Washoe lake. which is being cut tip
in to small farms and sold to pros
pective settlers on reasonable terms.
Mr.. Flanagan stated that although
he and Mr.. Douglass, his associate
had but hecently decided to place
certain sections of this land within
the reach of homeseekers, they were
agreeably surprised at the numerous
inquiries received from various states
FOR full information and terms Of
sale. The only method they have
used to date of reaching prospective
buyers has been by advertising in the
state papers and from the numerous
returns it is evident that the papers
are widely circulated.
