A|RPLANES PROVED
GREAT ATTRACTION
Feats of Uncle Sans Aerial Cavalry
Drew Great Crowds Yester-
day to the Fair

1t was certainly winning idea to
send to Arcadia for airplanes. and
the people of this county have reason
to thank Uncle Sans flyers for their
skill, which they seemed to take
great pleasure is displaying.
From little after noon until sun
down yesterday, one or the other,
sometimes both, of the airplanes from
Dorr Field maneuvered above the fair
grounds, sometimes sailing straight
and calmly like eagles high up, then
coming down in a dizzying dive to
o. the people, only to climb back to
the attitudes, sometimes banking un-
til they Were lying almost on one
side, and often accomplishing the
daring, death-defying loop the loop.
This last was wonderful. One would
see the machine begin to put its nose
down and tip its tail up until it seem
ed certain to come crashing to earth,
then almost too quick for the eye to
follow it would flip over and in an in
slant be either sailing calmly away
in straight line or again climbing
the aerial mountain it could always
build under it's flying keel.
The aviators are a most clever lot
of young men, as kind as they were
skillful, and in every way showed the
people that they were glad to add so
greatly to their instruction and
amusement
There was great crowd at the
fair grounds yesterday, the largest at
any fair but two or three, and every
body seemed to have most pleasant
time. Many went out to the carnival
last night and had a royal good time.
The shows are better this year than
last, and everybody who sees them
gets the worth of their money.
There was a tolerably good-sized
crowd today, tho nothing like yes
terday. The fair closes at sundown,
but the carnival will be open until
midnight.

OFF TO TALLAHASSEE
Representative Fort Leaves Today to
Attend the Special Session of
the Legislature

Mr.. Norman A. Fort, one of our
representatives in the legislature. left
today for Tallahassee, to attend the
special session called to meet Mon
day.
Mr.. Fort says he is opposed to the
session-that he thinks it is a need
less expense on the people, and can
do very little that cannot be done at
the regular meeting. However he
goes to Tallahassee with the inten-
tion of doing the best he can for the
county and state, and while he does
not approve of the governor calling
this extra session he does not intend
to fight Mr. Cats if he advances any
measure for the common good.
Mr.. Fort does not see that the pro-
hibition position can be improved by
any legislation that can be passed at
the special session. Like every other
man of any feeling. he is shocked
with the Mariana revelations and
will do all in his power to better af.
fairs at the institution. If it can't be
improved, it had better be abolished
he said
Mr.. Fort is against the present
plan of handling the state convicts
which he says is simply overtaxing
honest men in order to make life
more endurable for criminals. He
thinks that the first principle of send
ing a law-breaker to the penitentiary
is to punish him. He wants the state
convicts put to work on the roads and
other public works and not housed ir
comparative luxury at Raiford, where
for fact many of them are far bet
ter cared for than the law-abidine
people at home.
From a remark made by Mr.. Fort
about superf1uous commissions, We
judge that any attempt to reduce the
number will have his support.
This will be Mr.. Forts first exper
leace in the legislature, but he has
been member of the Marion county
board of commissioners for fourteen
years, and he could have no better
preparation for a term in the state:
governing council. What man learn:
about the affairs of county like
Marion will fit in pretty we'll all ovel
the state The people of his hom,
county have reason to expect Mr.. For
10 make good record.

SAW REAL SERVICE

Company A, County Guards, saw its
first real service yesterday and to-
day, guarding the airplanes. This was
important work. as it was absolutely
necessary that the flying machines be
kept out of reach of the crowds.
A detail of the guards went yester-
day morning out to the landing field,
which is the old Meade field, on Fort
King avenue, just east of Mr.. w. D.
earns residence. Here they remain
ed until the planes left for the south
this afternoon. They had a tent last
night and good fire and plenty to
eat, so they did very well, but it
wasn't just like. home.
The guardsmen on service were
Capt. Roberts, Lieut.. Preer, Lieut..
Needham, Sergeant Akin, Corporals
Davies and Malever, Privates Wilds,
Stroud, Meadows. Steele, Jennings,
Bullock, Barnett, Wrighton, Swaine
ard Rawls.

LABELS HAVE ARRIVED
May be Obtained from Red Cross
Headquarters for Attaching to
Parcels for Shipment to

Miss Mary Mcdowell, secretary of
the Marion County Chapter, Ameri-
can Red Cross, has received from the
war department supply of labels to
be used in shipping Christmas parcels
to soldiers with the American Expe-
dictionary Forces in France. These
labels will be furnished by Miss Nc
Dowell to parents or next of kin of
soldiers who have not received labels
direct from their l'elatices in France.
The Red Gross secretary also fur
nished standard size cardboard box
in which to ship the Christmas gifts
that will be delivered to our boys on
Christmas day.
These boxes have to be in the
hands of the Red Cross chapter by
November 30. Do not mail the box
yourself. When packed, the box un-
sealed and unwrapped, ready for in
spection, should be taken to the Red
Cross headquarters. Parcel post zone
rates will be charged. The parcels
are to remain in custody, of the Red
Cross until delivered to the postal au-
thorities.
Nothing should go in Christmas
parcel which will not keep fresh from
the time of packing until Christmas.
Hard candy, including chocolate,
would probably be safe in tinfoil OF
heavy cardboard, but no sofe choco-
late nor anything that could possibly
be crushed should be used. No liquids
nor articles packed in glass should be
placed in the package.
