Radiators Honcycomb Type.

More recently the GauldtOIS are ol

hose used on cars, mounted In the
center of the upper plane, with the
head inclined considerably towards
the rear. The entire cooling surface

Of being below 1t. as on the old type,

exhaust gases being drawn into col.
lector and the exhaust pipe carried
upwards and inclined to the rear to
"A point slightly above the top of the
upper plane. With the exception OF
the Fokkor all machines are BIZ
planes.
Germany appears to have paid no
attention to V-motors. This can be
understood In view of her passion for
uniformity. Before the war very
satisfactory type OF vertical siX-cylin-
der water cooled motor was evolved,
and the German authorities have re
mained faithful to this type during the
war. The French. on the other hand.
have refused to be bound by a medi-
ocre uniformity, and in the midst Of
tho war have not hestitnted to give
engineers "A free hand and adopt the
best that they could produce. Thus
the two wears Of war have seen the
decline OF the rotary and the rise Of
the six-cylindor vertical and various
eight and 12-cylinder V-motors. The
rotarN has not been abandoned, for
recently there has been "a rise in favor
OF the Rhone engine. This motor,
originally n rival OF the Gnome, was
bought up by the Gnome company
two or three years ago and produced
by II. It has been found more satis-
factory than the original Gnome and
Is being built In bigger quantities than
tho Gnome.
Another development is the high
speed eight and 12-cylinder N-motor
for aviation purposes. Instead Of
limiting the engine speed to 1900 TO
/. 400 revolutions per minute, several
firms. and particularly those with
lengthy racing experience. have pro-

tions instead Of 200 with the pro-
pollcr gcared down at a . to l ratio.
This has ncccssitated lighter recipro-
eating parts and considerable
amount Of successful experimental
work has been done with aluminium
pistOna,
In the German army much impor-
tance is attached to uniformity of de-
sign and construction. Thus motors
are invariably mounted I'm the front OF
the fuselage, with the tractive screw
on the propeller shaft and, of course,
running at engine speed, which never
exceeds | 400 revolutions. During the
early months OF the war the radiator
was mounted on each side OF the
fusclagc; this, however, was an eX-
posed position. any stray bullet being
liable to break tube and cause the
total loss OF cooling water.

Mr.. Steward has included in War

account of the famous Waterloo medal

desire Of George ". in 1919 to COM

specially fine medal. Flaxman design

at the royal mint, refused to cut the
dies and was himself commissioned to
prepare a modelled design, which, be-

the dies for a fee of 1880. The dies
were not finished until 1S49, and Of the

A Plateau In Papua.

The most singular plateau in the
world is in the island of Papua. The
plateau is 5000 feet above the sea,
and there are submits towering 5000
feet higher, but owing TO the proximi-
ty of the equator the great plain Is
covered with luxuriant vegetation. The
climate is a perpetual May, birds sing
in every bush, and the only animals
are a few marsupials, such as ground
kangaroos and opossums. Yet this
lovely region is almost deserted. The
Papuans live in the sweltering coast
jungles and rarely visit the uplands.

PeouIiarities of Russian Winters.

There is one curious thing about a
Russian winter-in the latter part of
October or the beginning OF November
the weather will be quite mild. Not a
sign can be seen of an approaching

apparent warning, a light haze will be
seen in the northern sky. and in twen-

British General Elections.

The British general election" which
can be called an appeal to the people
and on which the existing government
may be obliged to "go out" is prac-
tically referendum. In case of a dead
lock or disagreement in parliament or
cabinet a general election may be cali
ed at any time. Although the vote Of
the people is not taken directly on a
question, but on the representatives
whose standing on the question is
known, the result is the same as if the
bill itself were being voted upon.

There is a story told of Socrates that
he once asked a self confident pupil
to draw a line and, the line being COM
pleted, to construct a square upon it,
The youth did as directed. "Now,"
said the sage, make me a square
twice the size of the one before you"
THAT is easy" replied the novice, and
forthwith, producing the line so that
it was double the length of the first,
made another square. Very carefully
Socrates proved to the now crestfallen
follower that the new square was real
ly four times the size of the original.
Next he explained how the task ought
to have been done and concluded thus:
"Our first step to wisdom is ever
knowledge Of our own ignorance"

To the Memory of
Mr.. Samuel A. Patton

was born in Sequatchie Valley.
Tennessee, July z, 1851. His
father was William Patton
! his mother Eliza Reed.
Seven brothers, so family
history reads, emigrated to this
country from Scotland, and
from one of these the subject
of this memorial was descend
ed. When ten years of age his
father moved from Tennessee
to Alabama, where three
brothers and one sister still
live.
About the year 1871, Samuel
Patton returned to Tennessee
and was apprenticed to a Ger
man matchmaker in Chat
tanooga. He remained in this
relation for two and one half
years, when removed to Rock
wood and established a bust
ness for himself.
On Jan. .10, 1878, he was
united in marriage with Mar
tina Rebecca Norwood, of the
town of Maryville, the cere-
mony being performed by the
Rev. Chas. Tedford.
Plans were made by the
young couple for their immedi-
ate removal to the far west,
but an aged fathers request
main near him to comfort him
that his daughter might re-
to comfort him in his last days,
led to a change in their plans
and the goods that were mark
ed for Oregon were shipped to
MaryVille.
Here the young couple built
a cottage which later grew in
to their present home, where
for thirty-seVen years they liv-
ed happily together,
Six children were born of
their union, Charles, the first
born, dying in infancy; Ray
mond, an electrician, who
with his family resides here;
India, now Mrs. Thos. f.
Broadly, is also resident of
MaryvilIe; Norma, Mrs. j. M.
DeArmond, now of Midland,
Texas; Ruby Charles who was
her fathers bookkeeper ana
assistant; Adele, Mrs. H. e.
jackson, of Knoxville, Tenn.
These all, in the Providence |
Of God, were permitted to be
present when their father was
laid away, and with their own
hands they covered his grave
with flowers, the tributes of
loving friends.
The widow and mother still
lives to minister to her loved
ones, and to abide Gods call
to the better world.

Samuel Anderson Patton
bore an enviable reputation
among his fellows as a man of
stirling worth. He was honest
almost to the point of self in
justice. His word was his bond.
If he said it, men knew it was
true.
His reputation as a workman
was much more than local, and
he received work not only from
all parts of the United States
but even from foreign coun-
tries.
His devotion to his work was
unbounded and joyous; his in
dustry was limitless and his
technique sure and strong. He
loved his work for the arts
sake, and as he painstakingly
wrought in precious metals and
adjusted delicate mechanisms
to a fine point of perfection, he
was inspired with the beauty
of the task and with the well
fare of his fellow man.
Samuel Patton was a lover
of Gods great big out of doors.
He loved the hills and trees;
the bright faced flowers; the
rocks and running streams. All
were his warm friends, and to
him were silent messengers of
a higher power, a Divine Gre
atOr. He loved the birds and
dumb animals. To him the lit
tie feathered songsters spoke a
wonderful language and he
found great pleasure in pro-
tecting them from the Wintry |
blasts or Wanton cruelty. He
was a great lover Of dogs and |
gave him greater
pleasure than tramp through
open fields and woodlands,
with his faithful dog as COM
panion. Yes, he truly loved ma
ture and to him she spoke a
various language"
But a higher, greater, nobler
trait characterized the honest
man. He loved, even to the
point Of worship, little child
rem. He was kind, tender and
gentle with them and had only
to speak to a child for it to be-
come his fast friend. The love
that existed between Mr.. Pat
,on and his little grandson,
Thomas Broadly, Jr., was truly
beautiful and their perfect I'M
lerstanding, sympathy and
faith was source of inspira-
ion to other members of the
family and point of comment
their friends.
Few men ever loved their
nome and their families more
han did this man and in turn
hey lavished their affection
Upon him.
The world may not have
Known his heart, but they
Knew it-knew his love for ma
.ure, his love for the beautiful
everywhere, his devotion to
ruth and honor, his affection
or little children. And they
Knew, too, his hearts dream,
that "Heaven is Out Home"
ONE WHO LOVED HIM. I
