The one thing that came home to me

in no way loose jointed or idle, but, on
the contrary, strong, red blooded, avid,
imaginative. Germany is terrific ma

orderly, self disciplining, at present

without engaging in some vast, self
destroying conflict, it can become in
ternally so powerful that it will al

Lincoln Beachey, who is to fly up
side down and loop the loop at EXPOSE

denies that his feats are only fool
hardy stunts. He says.
THE Frenchman, Pegoud, who loop
ed the loop before me, and l should
not be classed with circus performers.
We are only pioneers blazing the way
for aviation by illustrating the posi-
bilities of development. 1 maintain
that my flying this summer will ad-
vance the science by 10 years.
''Orville Wright, who invented and
flew the first aeroplane, said there was
limit to the possibilities of avia-
ton. All he knew was about straight
flying He complimented me on put
ting over a lot of publicity in the way
of fake stories about looping the loop
when he knew it was impossible to
perform the feat.
when 1 built a small tractor ma
chine at Glen Curtiss' shop, and told
him was going to loop the loop with
it. he ordered the machine kept out
of my reach, and the next day l gave

tiss, who was in Europe, that he had
cheated me out of my life's ambition
and that he should let me finish my
machine since it had been proved that
the loop could be looped. He complied
with my request, and the world knows
what my success has been.
THE Wrights and Curtiss invented
machines, but their work stopped there.
I believe l am entitled TO credit for de-
velopment since then. The public has

WALKING WALKER
WALKED WITHOUT
WEAKNESS HERE
A TRAMP OF 1850 MILES-STOPS
IN AMERICUS ON HIS LONG
JOURNEY

Walker, the Walker, famed pedestrian
and allstar hiker, was in Americas
yesterday, the cynosure of the unem-
ployed and observed of all observers.
Mr.. Walker came from Dawson, his
latest stopping place and covered the
distance of "a miles in three and a
half hours without fatigue. Mr.. Walker
is Californian, and has made the
trip to Americas via thirty of forty
states, and without the use of Pull
man car, auto, or even a berth aboard
a Green Line" sleeper.
He is walking for a wager, of course,
and will cover a distance of $4,000
miles in just three years, dating from
March 18th, 1914. Already he has
covered 1860 miles of terra firma,
and, therefore, has four and a half
months in which to finish easily the
remaining $40 miles, an easy stunt
even for poor running candidate for
office.
Mr.. Walker neither works, begs or
buys-this being one of the conditions
imposed by his hacker He subsists
entirely upon voluntary contributions.
If invited to sleep in house and
have breakfast, he readily accepts,
otherwise he sleeps in the woods and
eats fruits or crackers. He wears
"Walk-Over" shoes entirely and has
worn out many pairs of them upon his
long tramp of $4,000 miles. If he wins
the wager the "Walk-Over" shoe man
ufacturers will present him a purse
of $4,000, it is said.
The object of his little jaunt is to
demonstrate that a man can subsist
we'll during three years without par
taking of meat or medicine. He eats
no meat whatever, fact he may re-
greet while in Americas during the
possum season. A medical society and
an athletic association at Oakland,
Cal, are parties to the contention rel
alive to mans subsisting without
meat or medicine. In his long walk
of 1860 miles he has lost but seven
pounds.
Mr.. Walker must register with the
clerk of court and postmaster in every
town visited, and already has the aft
davits of Postmaster Davenport and
Clerk Allen. He is we'll built, ath-
letic young man, and can easily cover
six miles an hour on any Sumter coun-
ty highway.

ANIMALS ARE BARRED
FROM PARCELS POST
BuIIetin Calling Attention to the Reg
uIations Issued by the Postal
Department.

The average man in the rural dis
tricts is under the belief evidently
that the parcel post was established
bv Uncle Sam for quick delivery of
any old thing that will go into the
regulation package, and the small
town postmaster, anxious to oblige
his friends, stretches point in ac-
cepting stuff not covered by the reg
ulations.
Hardly a day passes but what a
package containing perishable stuff
that has persisted, such as over-ripe
eggs, etc., reaches the ;oca> postof-
fee, driving the clerks to cover.
Many articles that the parcel post reg
ulations bar, especially liquids in
glass retainers, slip through the
mailing clerks by misrepresentation
on the part of the sender, and as Of
ten the package is damaged, causing
trouble to all concerned.
Live Stock Barred.
The regulations prohibiting the
sending of live animals by parcel
post has been disregarded so much
of late that the postoff1ce depart
ment has issued the following no
tice in the form of bulletin:
Reports are reaching the depart
ment that some postmasters are ac-
cepting for transmission through
mails live chickens, birds, cats, dogs
and other live animals and pets, in
violation of the postal laws and reg
ulations. Postmasters will careful
ly read section 472 of these regula-
lions and refuse to accept live fowls
or animals of any kind.
Intoxicating liquors or other ar
ticles declared to be unavailable in
section No. 472, postal laws and reg
ulations, must not be accepted fol-
mailing, no matter how packed.
"Postmasters are expected to sat
isfy themselves, by examination il
necessary, that the packages accept
ed for mailing at their offices do not
contain matter declared to be I'M
mailable by the postal laws and reg
ulations."
