Orville Wright's New Invention

II
It has been some time since the
world has heard directly from Orville
Wright, but now he comes forward
with the announcement that he has
made an aeroplape which is practical
ly fool proof. OF course the aviator
can fall out>of it and be killed, but
otherwise it will be difficult for him
to dash his brains out by colliding
with the earth.
The>new invention is calculated to
prevent aeroplanes from Sailing,
which is the cause of most of the &C.
cidents, according to this past master
in the art of flying. He promises a
machine that will be as safe to run as
an automobile.
1t was ten years ago thatthe Wright
brothers made their flight. the first
power flight in the world, and today
OrviHe Wright is calmly promising
that he will soon produce a machine
that practically everyone can use with
safety.
It has been an eventful decade in
the history of air navigation. When
the Wriehts pointed the way it was
seen that the day Of the heavier-than-
air machine was coming. There were
short flights across a field at first and
these were hailed as wonderful. Then
came BlerAt with his epoch-making
flight across the English channel.
Then the Alps were conquered, and
now daring aviators think little of
sweeping across Europe.
Perhaps the worlds experience
with the automobile is about to be re-
peated with the aeroplane. Who can
say that il is not? Oklahoma City

Freezing weather makes work. For

A Temple Which Is to Sur pass in Magnificcnce and Size Any Structure De- voted to That Purpose in the Southwest.

The temple of the shrine of which the accompanying is picture will be an ornament to the city. It will not however be built as an ornament Or naments are things which might in d pinch be dispensed with. Accessories however beautiful, are not ornaments and the temple is necessary It is de- manded not only by the growth and present size of the Shrine in Arizona bat Phoenix needs it. It will be the attraction by which conventions will be brought to the city made up of dele gates from all parts of the country The delegates to conventions are us uallv leaders of the communities whence they come. They are foremost citizens at home and would be good citizens anywhere. Many of the dele -ates who attend conventions in the Phoenix temple will become Phoenix citizens. They are men who are open to conviction on the subjects of lanrls and investments. The conven- tons have had much to do with the making of Los Angeles. Thous- ands of delegates became citizens and being men of influence they attracted other citizens
 The dimensions Of the temple will be frontage of 125 feet and depth of 120 feet. The stage will be ca pacious enough to accommodate any attraction that is small enough to travel There will be d convention hall that holds 4500 people and few cities in the country regardless of their size have larger one. Ten years ago presidential conventions were seldom held in larger halls.
 There will be two lodge rooms the finest in the southwest and ban --rrttrt4r1ss -4-+tlf--that will seat 1000 peo- ple. The temple will occupy a site on Central avenue adjoining the

The con structcn of the temple will begin when bonds to the amount of $50.o0o have been sold. The sale of $20,000 more will assure to Phoenix the finest and most extensive lodge building in the entire southwest eN- elusive of Los Angeles.
 The determination to build d tenn pie came as the product of two thoughts. First to supply the order with adequate quarters necessitdted by the rapidly increasing member ship and the pressing need of a first class theatcr and convention hall in PhoenlN
 The first was actuated by the fact that the local order had long ago outgrown it's present quarters, and coupled with it is the knowledge that at no distant day it would have enrolled ul OH lSS DbohS N4iou9e'ilt' members. The need of d building in keeping with these facts was imper- ative.
 Secondly. Phoenix rapidly striding toward the goal of city of the first class. must offer to it's visiting amusement companies d house in keeping with their pretentiousness. And with Its advantages ever i'll mind as the spot for holding con ventions, it must likewise have convention hall which would in it. self be an inducement for organiza- tions to select this point as their ob- iective
