r HAVE just been reading an In

the latest phases of aerial navi-
CATION. History sprouts and
pushes so fast nowadays in the
field where he earned renown that

the top OF one of our then already
skyscraping hotels, an aerie
which he assured me he had

him a sense of being up in a bal

instantly to a window and swept
his hand admiringly, superbly,
over the bird's-ey view of lower
Central Park. which lay spread
beneath our eyes
1t was a gesture that opened
his soul. and Immediately, with
out waiting for questions, he eX-
planned like a panorama all the
story of his achievements, hopes
and expectations.

A.-The nearest approach to
the great work OF tapping ma
lures unlimited store of electric
ity is the act of allowing irrigat
ing streams from high mountains
to turn turbine generators over
and over again in different power
plants along down the sides of
the mountains. and then. after
securing all mechanical work OF
gravitauon, secure growing work
in the growth OF food plants. This
is the height at present OF human
skill in the work OF tapping ma
ture."
Windmius turning armatures is
another way OF tapping. And the
capture OF water in tides, using
the force of outflow, is still an
other. We still have the dyna-
mos with us; we must turn arma-
lures with their polar fields of
magnetic lines.
We must use running water or
flowing winds to tap Nature; or
burn carbon under boilers, which

What's the Matter With Aviation?

planes he was ignorant of what
the Wrights had done. He pro-
duced his "Demoiselle," type Of
monoplane which has done good
work in the hands Of Garros,
Morane, Saulnier and other pi-
lots of the atmosphere, but since
1910 he had made no important
changes in his machine. He con-
tents himself now with regard
ing critically what others are
doing.
IF / were going to make a sug-
gestion to constructors" he says,
Il would say that in my opinion
they are wrong in exaggerating
the power of their machines.
They complain that aviation does
not develop among civilians, but
1t Is because they are making It
too expensive. From motors of
30 horsepower they have passed
to those OF 10. so. 100, $50 and
even 200 horsepower.
Machines that cost from So, 900
to $4,000 are too expensive, not
only at their first price, but es-
pecially in the cost Of operation.
They are inebriates in their con-
sumption OF oil. The merest lit
tie turn out with them is a prodi-
gality. The cost per mile Of flight
with these puissant motors be-
comes recklessly extravagant.
Military aeroplanes, Of course,
must be powerful enough to go
out In all kinds of weather, but I
think it is a grave error to seek
TO force such machines upon the
market for private civilian own
ers. The needs of sport should
especially be consulted The
sportsman, the tourist, and even
the man who would use the aero
plane Tor commercial purposes,
can walt for proper weather. He
doesn't call for a machine which
can battle with all the obstacles
of the atmosphere.
"A private aeroplane should be
like a yacht-made and calcu-
lated for use IN decent weather
and not in tempests So the con-
structors should turn their atten-
ton to the production OF the
aeroplane OF sport of simple pleas
ure. intended for fine days and
good weather, and made light and
at a low price. Machines like
that would develop a taste for
aerial sports"

Probably they do not; for II

Mr. Patterson. Mr.. Dawson, Mr..
Rainey, let me earnestly ask that

into the heart of Jean Vatican,
the man who went to the galleys
for thirteen years because he
stole a loaf of bread to feed his
starving mother.

lowly bishop who took Jean VAL
Jean in after his release when no
one else would shelter him; read
how Vatican, dragged back in the
morning after taking all the silver
he could find in the house Of the
ROOO man WHO SuCSOTSu MIN, was,
in the presence of the gendarmes,
presented by the bishop with two
silver candlesticks (the only re-
naming silver in the house), with
the remark:

Read how that simple action
stirred the dying spark Of man
hood in the mire Of Valjean's
mind and led him through the
years Of struggle to post of
love and honor and respect among
his fellowmen.
Don't fail to read how minions
of the prison bounded him in ev-
cry effort that he made to make
himself a MAN!

'The idea of punishment
should take precedence oper the
idea of reformation. II. E. Pat
ters0n, Prison Commissioner for
the State of Georgia.
TT would avail nothing bitter
terly to condemn Mr.. Patter-
son as ignorant. Nor is 1t
necessary. His own statement, II
he really means what he says,
convicts him of one of two equally
bad things:
Either he Is ignorant of his
duty as a Prison Commissioner or
he is willfully inhumane. l do
not believe Mr.. Patterson is either
ignorant or cruel; but If he is the
one or the other, as the statement
credited to him indicates, he is
unfit for his gravely responsible
position.
Mr.. Patterson's associates-R.
E. Dawson and p l.. Rainey-
have shown by their actions and
their remarks that they agree
with him. Consequently, they, as
Commissioners, If they believe as
they talk, are unfit for their posi-
tons.
It Is a staggering fact that these
three men, who hold in their
cupped palms the well-being or
destruction of hundreds of unfor-
tunate human beings, should
stand forth in the light of pres
emit day civilization, and, at least
seemingly, espouse the cause of
dead century's barbarism.

The whipping post IS bar
barism!
And these men seem to defend
it.
Patterson Dawson Rainey' who
should represent the most ad-
vanced thought of the day In the
handling of prisoners (who are
merely grown-up chlldren gone
wrong), who have the power to
put that thought into practice, ap-
pear to choose barbarism!
Patterson Dawson Rainey say
to their prison guards, in ef-
feet:
Go ahead and be barbarians,
but don't be too barbaric."
And while they say 1t, these

Would Patterson DAWSON

the Prison Commission rode by
in an automobile and bow ana
smile, and say:
You are right. gentlemen; the
idea or punishment Shoulu tcnS

wonder II Mr.. Patterson, Mr..
Dawson or Mr.. Rainey ever read
a book that Victor Hugo wrote,
called Les Miserables."
l wonder II these three gentle
men ever heard of Warden Bob
McKenty, of the Eastern Peni-
Tertiary OF Pennsylvania; or OF
the $50 men he recently sent
forth from the gates of the peni-
Tertiary, clean, intelligent arti-
sans and professional men; the
very same who went into that
prison years ago murderers safe
blowers, forgers; degraded, de-
generate and illiterate as any
man who ever went to a Georgia
prison?
Do Mr.. Patterson. Mr.. Dawson
and Mr.. Rainey think the idea of
punishment took precedence over
the idea of reformation in THEIR
cases?
