TOLEDO CELEBRATES

TOLEDO, o., Nov. lit required
about thirty minutes after news of the
signing of the armistice arrived for
Toledo to start a celebration of the
event. The tardiness was due to a
false report circulated here last week
to the effect that the war was over.
CeIebrators wanted to know first II
it was true. Then the demonstration
started with the blowing of whistles
and the ringing of church bells.

serious grief.
Then came the tractor type of plane
first shown in the Newport monopane, with
the engine and propeller in front and the
pilot just back of the wings, This type of
plane has passed through a high state of
development in all sizes within the horse
power limitations of one engine.
With the next new mechanical arrange
ment first principles were used two pro-
pellers being placed out on the wings and
pushing the planes. The engines were di-
rectly connected to the propellers and fitted
on the wing. This later gave way to a
similar arrangement of the engines, but
with tractor propellers in front of the wings.
Recently we have had planes fitted with
many engines distributed over the wings.

these machines weigh as much as fifteen

"Outside of engine and propeller location
there are three general mechanical arrange

biplanes and triplanes. These types are so

seem so trivial as to warrant no real
thought. In a speed plane, however, the
exposing of a water pipe from the engine
to the top wing might slow down the maxi
mum speed of the plane five miles per
hour. Adding streamline wires in the place
of round cables might add ten miles an
hour to the speed of the machine
I'm speed planes to-day, at maximum rate
of travel, more than SO per CENT of the
engine power and gasolene consumed is
used up in forcing these parasites through
the air, and only 40 per cent of the horse
power is usefully used. 1t is as though a
speed boat going through the water, and
having beautifully streamlined hull
should be forced to run race with log
dragging behind, or like a car in a race

While the airplane to-day contains es-
sentlally the same units of structure as
III the beginning, the writer points out,
yet the mechanical arrangement has
varied as new engines, materials and
processes and greater experience in flying
have shown the way. Of this structural
development, he continues:
ne early TWO propeller puSher with
posed pilot and no body construction gave
way to, @the single propeller pusher type
with the pilot seated in front of the en-
CINE. In case of spill however, or a bad
landing, the engine had a nasty habit of
coming forward through the pilot before
striking the ground, for which reason par
tculariy this type of machine was gradu-
ally discarded Another deficiency of this
arrangement was that in of propeller
breaking which happened on the small
