You can scarcely find a man even
so young as having reached his ma
jority, who has not had something out
Of the ordinary in his life-and our
good friend and 35-year-old Prog
ress subscriber, John Wash Fesmire,
of the old 7th district, some seven
miles Northwest of Lexington, is no
exception to the rule. Mr.. Fesmire
was born March 4th, 1S55-hence was
ushered into this world on the day
that Buchanan was inaugurated Pres
ident of the United States-and just
little figuring will show that he will
be s. years old on his next anniver-
sary. Now for the things extraordi-
nary in the life history of Mr.. Fes-
mire: First, he says that in fifty
years he has at no time been too sick
to make his weekly trip to Lexington.
Second, Mr.. Fesmire says that in the
space Of half century, he does not
suppose that his family has been
without a COW giving milk for more
than two months--and therein lies
the second statement--that during all
those years he has drunk from two
to nine glasses of buttermilk every
day. If there be another citizen who
can show like record on health and
the consumption of buttermilk, let
him speak out-or forever hold his
peace.

SKY WRITTEN WITH
 NAMES SO A|R|NAN
 KNOWS WHERE HE |S

By the invention of a new wireless transmigter a wireless beam like a searchlght without light-can be projected into the air, conveying au- tomatically and intermittently the name of the place over which an air. man is passing, so that it will be as easy to tell in the skies where you are as to see where you are when travel ing on railway train.
 This is what Godfrey $. Isaacs, head of the Marconi Wireless company in England, said the other day in an ad- dress in Manchester, England, before the Aldwych club. Mir. Isaacs is a brother of Lord Reading, lord chief justice of Great Britain and recently special commissioner to the United States.
 According to MT. Isaacs. this wide divergent beam will extend over what ever area is required, as we'll as to designate some certain place. It will have concentrated beams-one, two or more These beams will convey to the man in the skies his location, so that if he is passing over Phoenix, from the moment he traverses the region over which the beam is playing. he re- ceives the signal, This is Phoenix, and he will continue to receive that signal so long as he is over Phoenix and no longer.

WORK NOT STOPPED ON ODD FELLOWS TEMPLE SAYS. CITY INSPECTOR

In correction of a statement that work had been stopped on the Odd Eel lows building in consequence of a con- troversy between the contractor, Clin- ton Campbell, and H. J. Mann. city building inspector, the former said yes terday there had been no cessation of the work
 Mir. Campbell said further that some weeks ago he made application for a building permit and deposited the re- quired fee. No action was at once taken by the building inspector. The permit was withheld because, in the opinion of the inspector, there should have been a provision in the plans for another stairway.
 Before any decision had been reached or announced, the excavation for the building had been completed. Then the sides of it began to cave in and the contractor, realizing that he was threatened with loss. especially if a rainy season should set in, began plac- ing the forms for the concrete founda- ton, when the inspector ordered the work to be suspended and caused a warrant to De issued for the arrest of the contractor

 Tt wants but little imagination" says MT. Isaacs, Ito see that a little while hence some thousands, tens of thousands, of names will be projected into the skies, so that whatever part or the world the airplane may travel the passenger is being automatically told where he is. Similarly, these beams can be equipped to lightships or to buoys in fixed and defined positions, so that when the airman flies over the sea he may know exactly where he is. When that position is developed, pilots Will no longer lose themselves, wher- ever they may be in the skies"
 MT. Isaacs further said, according to report by the Manchester Guard- ian, that now new inventions had made It easy for wireless communication both telegraphically and telephonically from one airship to other airships,i and with ships at sea, and with the folks at home. These great inventions have been made during the period of the great war
 At sea very large number of ves- seis before the war were fitted with wireless installations which communi- cated during the day distance of some 200 miles with reliability, and during the night about 500 miles ? said MT. lsaacs. Today those dis tanees are quadrupled, so that pas senger travelling across the Atlantic will never again be out of touch with one or the other of the two coasts. He will be able to conduct his affairs, aI- though at sea, with almost the same promptitude and ease as he would be able to do were he but a few miles from his place of business
