Ford says his ideas of the war have

Of weighted cord. which IL unwound
from the shaft OF that device. With
this little wheel spinning the rocket

The rocket is ignited electrically BY
means Of light cable from n distance

the gyro spinning. The second elec.

In about eight seconds an altitude OF

the maximum elevation is attained an

Immediately under the parachute, as

at the end OF the line are hung the
body of the rocket and the vaned

settles earthward the guide.rod strikes
the ground first. and by thus light

camera descends slowly so that It
can be either caught or brought to

The whole AFFAIR presents but n

until the breeze or wind blows from

Is duly appreciated by The Eagle, and
the business concerns not yet seen

time between now and April Goth Is
short. and It is therefore necessary
that all prospective advertisers ar
range their copy for the printers just

HIGH COSTS OF LIVING.

The most important question be- fore the people at the present time is beyond any sort of doubt the con ,tinued high costs of living.
 Flour is higher than at any per iod since the Civil War and other of the commonest necessities are similarly affected
 The country produces in super abundance. There is more than enough flour raised in the form of wheat in the United States to feed the people their most urgent bread needs twice over.
 There is more than enough in every line to meet almost twice the normal needs of the people of the nation.
 Under such conditions readily enough it can be seen, the United States is not short naturally in any food product.
 But everything is not so simple as all that. Food products are pro- duced not to satisfy the human needs directly, but directly to make money.
 Now over in Europe there is an immense amount of labor which is
