"Invislble Shin" Nav Be.

Navy department officials say they
have not yet evolved the invisible
merchant ship" In fact, the United
States has not been any more success
full in this respect than has Germany
in her efforts to make U-bOats invis-
ible. 1t Is true Thomas A. Edison and
other members of the navy advisory
board, together with naval experts,
have been working for some time on
the reduction of visibility of merchant
ships.
Results to date are said to be i'm
pOrtant. By utilizing neutral colors and
reducing the horizon line of freighters
a substantial contribution has been
made to the campaign against German
submarines. The decorators" as this
country calls its camouflage men, have
made 1t harder for U-boat commanders
to locate American merchant ships, but
that is all so far.

BLOW TO KANSAS DRINKERS
Judge A. j. curran of Crawford County
Declares the State Bone Dry
Law is Valid.

The Kansas Bone Dry Law with.
stood an attack on its constitutional.
ity in the Crawford County District
Court at Girard the other day, Judge
A. j. Curran presiding. e. L. Burton
of Parsons, former member of the
legislature, led the legal assault on
the measure in the case of Adolph
Kurent of Breezy Hill. charged with
a violation of the law. Burton alleged
that the last legislature exceeded its
police power in passing the law. Hav-
ing liquor in ones possession does not
affect the morals of the community,
Burton argued He asserted the state
had no power to go into mans home
in such manner as the Bone Dry
Law provides.
Judge Curran held that the legisla-
ture, rather than the courts, should
determine the scope of the exercise
Of the police power. Notice was given
of an appeal to the supreme court.
This case is expected to serve as the
test case on the constitutionality OF
the law.

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, Dec. 10
| Texas takes the crown from Illinois in
the matter Of female flying And the
crown is fitting nicely, thank you, on
the head of Katherine Stinson, who
recently flew from San Diego to San
Francisco, making $50 miles without
alighting.
Ruth Law of Chicago had found the
crown good fit for her curls for
more than year In November, 1916,
she set record for women flyers by
negotiating 5121s miles between Chi
cago and Hornell, N. Y. She had start
ed for New York city, but was forced
to alight because of engine trouble and
bad weather. In New York after her
flight, which was made in a Curtis
machine, she announced she would
next tackle a coast-to-coast fly. When
the war started, however, she gave
her time to flying in the interests of
Liberty bond sales and Red Cross
work
Miss Stinson, in her San Diego-San
Francisco flight was in the air nine
hours and won the distinction of be-
ing the only flyer to cross the Tehac-
hapi mountains on a nonstop flight.
Both women have flown extensively
for the past two years.
Both girls have offered their serv-
ices to Uncle Sam in the aviation SER
vice, but the powers that be have not
found need for women pilots as yet.
Miss Law has a commission in the av-
iation reserves. She has asked Wash
ington repeatedly to let her go abroad
and fly with the army men.
