ment work on the road which has

summer.
Concrete is being laid on the road
at Pershing, and within few weeks
the contractor will start laying con-
crete on other parts of the road which
have not yet been completed. Last
year eight miles of concrete was laid,

miles to go. exclusive of mile and

INVENTORS FLOOD
AERIAL BOARD
WITH DEVICES
10000 New Devices Are
Submitted to Aid Air
Work.

WASHINGTON, d. c.. May 13.--
Some idea of the extent to which the
inventive genius of America has been
stirred by the war is afforded by an
investigation of the work of the nat.
ional advisory committee for aero
nautics. No less than 10000 new de.
vices have been submitted relating to
the general subject of aeronautics.
The advisory committee is charged
with the work of sitting out the work
able devices from the impractical
ideas. and this involves vast amount
of labor From all sections of the
country have come suggestions rela-
tive to Improvements in controls,
fabric, instruments, parachutes, stabi-
lizers, wings, coloring, and fireproof-
ing materials.
Motive Power Suggestions.
Under the head of motive power
many suggestions have been Submitted
relatives to steam and internal COM
bustion engines and various improve
ments to the latter. Suggestions and
inventions have been sent in relative to
both fixed and rotary engines and also
turbines.
Devices connected with engine parts
such as mufflers, carburetors, ignition,
fuel tanks, starters, radiators, and
valves have been submitted in large
numbers, and many propellers, both
variable and fixed pitch, constructed OF
wood and steel, have been offered.
The great bulk of the suggestions
and inventions are impracticable. but
many of them have been found to pos
sess merit.
Some Of the Inventions.
Some of the inventions which have
been deemed worthy of investigation
during the last year have been listed
as follows:
An instrument to prevent excess
transverse stresses in an airplane en-
gine, invented by Theodore Douglas.
This was tested at the navy yard in
Washington. 1t has proved satisfac-
tory and limited order has been
placed.
Divining stress meter, or decelerom-
eter. for indicating the limit of speed
in flattening out from dive. This
instrument has been developed to a
point where it will be given test at
an early date.

HELPLESS CHINA A LESSON
Every Man, Woman and Child Should
Contribute to Success Of Third
Liberty Loan.

Within the last few months the ter
riblc bubOnic plague has been sweep
ing over western China. Starting in
Mongolia, it crossed the great wall and,
with appalling speed, invaded province
after province. And China-great,
helpless China-is unable to care for
its unfortunate people. Missionaries
and the Rockefeller institute have been
doing much to alleviate suffering, but
their efforts have been little enough to
stem the tide of the dread disease.
China lacks the organization and the
initiative to do much more than bow
before the inevitable.
| "There is a lesson for America at
this time in the conditions in China"
said a United States army medical Of
fcer a few days ago. '"The United
States is at war Food, guns, clothing
are needed for the soldiers, and ships
are necessary to carry them to the bat
tlefelds in Europe. To conduct this
enormous business Of war, money is
needed-billions in money. If the ma
ton does not show initiative and Or
ganization, if every individual and
every community are not closely knit
| to every other individual and every
other community and interest by q
common impulse, q common purpose to
defeat the enemy, America will fail in
this war as surely as China has failed
in her hopeless battle against the bu-
bOnic plague.
every man, woman and child should
contribute to the limit toward the sue
cess Of the thirG Liberty loan. There
must be no sectional feeling, no racial
hatreds, no ancient grudges, no po-
litical ambitions, no community inter-
ests or individual schemes to stand in
the way. If this nation of more than
hundred million souls stands together
as one, the government at Washington
will be provided with the money with
which to finance ourselves and our al
lies in this war against a selfish and
aurocratic power that plots our politi-
cal and commercial ruin as It plotted
and accomplished the ruin Of Belgium
and Serbia and northern France.
"a. prominent politician once pro-
tested against the 'Chinafying of the
United States Let the United States
prove to itself and to the common foe
that there is nothing Of China's help
1essness in us. It can do SO by acting
with a single purpose in this matter

BUY LIBERTY BONDS TO
VERY LIMIT OF RESOURCES
Everyone Should Give the Boys "Over
There" the Financial Support
Needed for Victory.

An article recently published in some
papers Of the central West gave an err
roneous impression as to the part the
farmer should play in financing the
great struggle for liberty and world
freedom. It suggested that the farmer
should not borrow money with which
to buy Liberty bonds-that he should
not Inconvenience himself in lending
financial support at this critical time
in the history of the nation.
This is no time to think of incon-
venience at home. If inconvenience is
to be the basis Of thought, let the
American farmer consider first >he in
convenience Of the boys on the firing
line in France. At this particular time
it is up to all Americans to make sac
rifces. This is no time to think of COM
Portable financial circumstances and
freedom from inconvenience. The
government is at great deal Of in
convenience If the boys at the blaz-
ing, thunderous front are standing in
muddy trenches lodging shell splinters
and Hun bullets and facing the terrible
gas attacks, there is no reason why
the farmer at home should not extend
himself to help out.
Don't think of inconvenience. Think
Of the inconvenience and danger Of
your son, or your neighbours son, at the
front, and buy Liberty bonds to the
limit. Stretch your financial system
to the breaking point, if need be, to
support your government and the boys
who are actually engaged in the bust
ness of fighting your fight.
If you haven't the money at hand to
do your full duty toward the great
cause, go out and borrow it from your
bank-borrow so that you may buy
bonds until it hurts" Your financial
support may be a measure Of your
practical patriotism-and the nation
needs practical patriots at this critical
period.
Don't think Of inconvenience-think
only Of success.

Be a Fighter and Buy Bonds.

It is time that we all realize the
country is at war. The railroads
found themselves relieved Of the man
agement Of their properties over night.
Prices have been set for food and
steel and coal. The draft is in full
operation. 1t is no longer a question
of patriotism in supporting the gov
eminent, it is an absolute necessity.
If the soldiers refuse to fight, the
war is lost. If we at home refuse to
buy bonds, the war is lost because the
government will be unable to finance
the operation. The man who refuses
to buy bonds in this great crisis is in
a class with the soldier who refuses
to fight.
