%. 600 FIGHTING AIRPLANES

The administrators next great
step for the prosecution of the war is
now before congress in two bills pro-
viding for the construction and equip
ment of over $4,000 fighting airplanes
with the training of 100 1000 aviators
to man them and calling for an an
preparation of $639, 1000, 900.
France and Great Britain together
are supposed to have established a SUI
premacy in the air on the western
front. They can probably continue to
produce planes and trained ~aviators
faster than Germany and so maintain
that supremacy. But it is a supremacy
sustained at best by only a small mar
gin which admits of large continued
aerial operations by Germany.
What the addition of several thou.
sand airplanes from America will
mean is to make this allied air su.
premacy absolutely overwhelming. II
will be a supremacy so crushing as
to drive Germany out of the air alto.

JUGGLING WITH FIGURES

Do you believe the wal will end this
year? If you do, and run across some
friend who doubts it, you can prove
it to him by a new prophecy which
rests on the wizardry Of figures pro-
duced by the Kansas City Star
When you meet the doubter, tell
him to take certain statistics Of the
rulers of the allies and figure it for
himself. Here they are:
President Wilson-Born 1856, took
office 1912, years served five, age 81.
Total, 1884.
President of France-Born 1860,
took office 1918, years served four,
age 81. Total, 1884.
King of England-Born 1865, took
office 1910, years served seven, age
So. Total, 1884.
King of Belgium-Born 1875, took
office 1909, years served eight, age AZ.
Total, 1884.
Emperor of Japan-Born 1879, took
office 1913, years served five, age 80.
Total, 1884.
King of Serbia-Born 1874, took Of
flee 1903, years served IA, age 70.
Total 1884.
King of Montenegro - Born 1S41,
took office 1910, years served seven,
age 76. Total 1884.
The list establishes the fact that
1884 is the magic figure. But your
doubling friend will at once say it is
incomplete because Russia is left out
of it. You can show him that the de-
posed car was born in 1868, assembled
to the throne in 1894, had served %
years when the revolution unseated
him and is 40 years old, and that
these figures, too, add up to 1884.
To determine when the war will
end, just divide 1884 by two and you
get 1917. Simple, isn't it?
OF course, if your friend is smart
he will scratch his head and 20 to fig
uring and at one he will find that
any mans date of birth and his age
will equal 1917 and if he is a little
smarter than the ordinary he will pro-
coed by analysis to discover that the
date any present ruler took office, ad-
ded to the number of years. he has
served also will make 1917, and finally
that 1917 and 1917 make 1884.

Corn meal is ANerica's food for ev-

Steam The Coming Automobile.

The little Spark Plug invented few
years ago made the present day auto
mobile possible. Its advent revolution
lied the gasoline motor commonly used
in automobiles today. It's application
together with the invention and applica-
ton of the self-starter, altho complicat-
ed, has made the gasoline motor as near
a perfected power for the automobile as
it ia possible with gasoline as its motive
power.
Steam has long been recognized as an
ideal power II remained for Abner
Doble, Of Detroit, to perfect this power
for the automobile use, which he has
accomplished by the aid Of the little
Spark Plug. However, instead Of using
the Spark Plug for every power impulse,
as with the gasoline engine, he only uses
il once in igniting the kerosene for start
ing his steam plant. This makes start
ing more quick than with the gasoline
car, especially in cold weather. Thus
it will be seen, that the Spark Plug is
revolutionizing the steam engine. as it
did the gasoline engine.
