OMAHA man HAS
new
DEVICE
C. M. Heig Has Plan for
Keeping AirpIanes On
Keel.

The United States patent office
has just issued patents to Charles
M. Heig, an Omaha man, for an
automatic airplane control. The de-
vice is simple of construction, and
can be applied to any kind of air
plane without alterations of the
plane.
With this appliance, a plane IS
automatically brought to-, an even
keel, or upright position, no matter
in what position it starts from. 1t
eliminates the dangerous tail-spin
and can be regulated to keep the
plane at any given altitude, or make
it gradually descend to earth, right
side up, without the pilot touching
the control.
This invention relieves the ire
mendous strain upon the pilot from
balancing the machine. Once up at
the desired height, he can remove
his hands from the controls and
merely watch his compass and steer
the plane as an oarsman steers a
racing shell, with his feet. All
bother in balancing is taken care
of by this device.
Should the plane enter pocket
(cold air coming down or warm air
going up), the device automatically
alters the controls so as to keep
the plane on an even keel.
This automatic control immediate
ly takes charge of the plane the
moment the aviator removes his
hands from the control stick.
In a fog, dreaded by aviators, as
we'll as by seamen, the pilot has but
to let go of his controls and can be
sure that he is at least going right
side up,
This invention is a sure step to-
ward making the airplane conf

MORE AVIATION
LANDING SITES
NEEDED BADLY
Government Rules No More
Flights Will Be Made at
Cities With Inadequate -
Landing Facilities.

Washington. D. C., July 26.-The
announcement made by Maj. Gen
Charles T. Menoher, director of air
service, to the effect that no further
exhibition flights will be made a.
cities where inadequate landing
fields are provided, reminds those
who are looking to aircraft to bring
about far-reaching changes in the
progress of civilization, that study
must be given to the limitations and
special requirements of the airplane
and dirigible as we'll as to the spe-
cial advantages brought to US by
aerial navigation.
In the unfortunate accident al
Boston which resulted in the death
of two juvenile spectators, Col. H.
B. Claggett. the pilot who deliber-
ately guided his plane into a tree
at the risk of the lives of himself and
his passenger in the attempt to avoid
the children who swarmed over the
field after the preceding machine
had landed, was absolved by the
court and the northeastern depart
ment has concurred in the opinion
of Judge William F. Merritt that
there be no more flying in that city
until a proper aerodrome is avail
able. There was no other in the
vicinity which afforded even the
facilities of Franklin field.
With the immense popular inter
est in flying together with the diff
ficulties of living up to the common
expectation and the technique of fly
ing, it is remarkable that more &C
cidents have not occurred through
the use of makeshift fields.
During the Victory loan campaign,
teaps of aviators, flying various
types of high powered, high speed
MACHINES, including even captured
enemy Fokkers,> covered almost the
whole United States with the shad-
ow of their wings, sustaining but
one accident, and that to a spectator.
Flights were made in SO cities,
utilizing such fields in the vicinities
as happened to be available.
In all but the few instances where
there were air service aerodromes,
landing fields were provided by To-
cal loan committees, without any
attempt at special preparation.
With the presence of volume OF
commercial and sport flying, in ad
dition to the continually increasing
military, naval and postal opera
lions, proper aerodromes are as
much a necessity as trainsheds and
switching yards are to railroad, or
docks to a steamship line.
Many cities are already in coop
Grafton with the air service, at work
IN the construction Of municipal
eerodromes, but it is obvious that
future flying activity on the part of
the government and by companies
and individuals is, from the stand
point of public safety and operat-
ing economy, contingent as we'll
upon the installation of terminals
as upon the production of machines.

THE REVIVAL

The interest in the coming revival which begins at the Methodist church on October 26th seems to be increas- ing and the splendid attendance at both the morning and evening ser vices last Sunday is taken as tke be- ginning of a good interest in the re vival.
 Definite arrangements for the sing CT have not been made yet, but Dr. Hammond of Little Rock, will be here to assist our pastor in the meeting. pr. Hammond is an earnest and eff fective preacher and much good is expected to grow out of his work among us.
 The general interest in the Sunday school, Epworth League and other de- partments of the church is good and we have no reason to doubt that indi- cations point to successful revival. If you are member of the Metho- dist church here, you have a distinct duty to perform during the meeting and we urge you to take advantage of the opportunities furnished you through the revival. Do your duty.

Increasing Interest in
 High Class Church Music

THE steady improvement in a 4 high order of sacred music in all the cities of the United States is well remarked. Birmingham is keeping up with this development.
 Until recent years religious music of artistic merit was heard only in liturgical churches where set music more or less elaborated was a part of worship.
 Today the song service is in vogue, and in Birmingham, as in other cities, beautiful programmes are presented in many Protestant churches.
 Thus it is that music by the great masters is widely rendered and the eleyating effect is generally felt.

+ -T II Boy Scouts Will Help Spread Christmas Cheer

"@ ERvIcE" is the watehword
 g of the Boy Scouts of Ameri- ca. The Birmingham council, which, like other units, "carries on" 365 days a year, sees a splendid opportunity to make Christmas day of rejoicing in Birmingham for the poor, as well as the rch and well-to-do.
 With this commendable object in view, the sturdy youngsters who have proved themselves indispensable so many times to the city authorities and committees charged with looking after the entertainment of notable visitors and, in fact, in nearlysall pub lie occasions; the boys whose camp fires blaze on many hills about Bir- mingham, who have learned out in the open the qualities that go to make men, will finance Community Christmas by their own efforts.
 The Scouts will give an entertain ment at the Jefferson theatre, De- |cember IS, at which they will demon strate many of the phases of Boy Scout life, in addition to other worth while features on the progra mme. The money taken in will be used to buy good things to eat and toys for the boys and girls of Birmingham whom Santa Claus would pass by without their help.
 Everyone connected with the Con- munity Christmas of the Boy Scouts will give his services free. Boy Scouts do not accept tips and they do not believe in being paid for any philan- lthropic work they undertake But they do hope that the good men and women of Birmingham will come to their entertainment at the Jefferson theatre and they promise that it will be more than worth the price of ad- mission, apart from the cause it rep resents, the sublime task of bringing smiles to the faces of little children lat Christmas time.
