JUDGE c. NJ. JONES
GETS COMMISSION

Judge c. Moreno Jones, who was
recently appointed by Governor Cats
by virtue of his nomination at the
last primaries, to the position to be
vacated today by Judge Kirke Mon
roe, is in receipt of his commission,
which dates from Saturday, May 10.
He will formally take charge of the
office this afternoon, following the
disposition of a case which came un-
der the attention of the court during
the incumbency of the retiring jurist.
The last case to be passed upon by
Judge Monroe is that of Louis Hol-
man, white, who, pleading guilty to
stealing a steer recently, was remand
ed to jail for sentence. He will be
arraigned for sentence this morning
and this, it is said, will constitute
the last official act of Judge Monroe.
Judge Moreno Jones, it is an
nounced, will assume active charge of
the duties of the office Monday
morning, sounding the docket and
taking up for consideration his first
cases. For the first three days of
the week, Judge Jones will sit in
judgment upon all cases which are
brought before the court, and on
Thursday it is stated, that Judge
Love, of Gadsden county, will sue
coed him temporarily, or for the bal
ance of the week. Cases wherein
Judge Jones feels that he is technic-
ally not qualified to sit, will be dis
posed of during the latter part of
the week. These include the cases of
several defendants who were con
cerned in the alleged Illegal liquor
business, and one civil action.

done by rule of thumb. 1t is a high
ly specialized science.
Said w. E. Dougherty, who has
done war service in the Italian flying
corps:
Exact understanding of stream
lines, angles of incidence, wing curves
and torque and table stress and strain
as applied to aeronautics make it
as easy now for a designer to turn
out an airplane to do certain desired
things as 1t is for an auto engineer
to make drawings for a truck that
will haul so many tons so many miles
on so much gasoline. There's no
more guess work"
Modern warplanes are valued at
from $4,000 to $4,000 apiece. The
twin motors in the larger type cost
$1,000.
