Is probable that this device, known
as the Ruggles orientator, will be Il
feature of all flying schools and will
enable civilians as well as soldiers to
determine without risking their lives
whether they are fit for flying.
The Ruggles machine does for the

largest one of which is II feet In

put his pupil through all the motions

the controls, which are connected to

controls In the boat. The test Is
even more severe than that of actual
flying. If the neophyte has anything
the matter with his heart, nerves or
stomach which will disqualify him for
flying the orientator will bring the fact
out at once.
This new mechanical device Is to be
introduced into the course of training
at the various flying fields and will

OUR NAMES PUZZLE EUROPEANS

Down on the wharves they tell a story of how two British sailors were rowing a skiff under the stern of the battle ship Ohio as she lay in an English port.
 "A ho a haitch, and TO-" said one of the limies. "Wot a 'ell of name for ship!"
 We made very merry over Russian and Polish names. When it came to the Balkans we were free to confess that we didn't know whether the Dobrudja was a river or a break. fast food. But it is now borne in upon us that our own names may not mean much more to Europeans than some of theirs mean to us.
 Half of the names of our states are pure Choctaw to all but educated Eu- ropeans, and not much more to many of those. A celebrated violinist said he had long ago given up trying to comprehend American geography or Indian names, and simply bought his railroad ticket to any place his mana ger designated.
 "You ought to translate them," he added plaintively.

POTENT SELLING ARGUMENT

The most potent selling argument for motor truck has just come to the Republic Motor Truck Co.,, because they, of all companies, have earned the right to use it.
 "This argument will undoubtedly carry more weight to those who are in the market to purchase truck than any other statement we could possibly use," said z. A. Bissonnette, distributor for Republic trucks in Northern Arizona, "due to the fact that there are more Republic trucks in use than any other make in the world.
 Users of Republic trucks have all along recognized their high standing, power and performance in an extraor- dinary degree; ability to stand abuse; unusual economy under the extremes of use and misuse; exceptional serv- iceability - these are the qualities which have made the Republic the largest-selling motor truck in the en- tire world. The potentiality in that statement will certainly impress everyone interested in commercial vehicle. The Republic company, be- cause of the feeling of confidence that is in the mind of the average busi- ness man, has become the largest ex- elusive motor truck manufacturer in the world. That, in single sentence, speaks volumes for Republic perform ance, Republic economy, long life and every other factor that enters into the use of motor truck. It is the proof of the fact that the Republic is a good truck for any business, and that it deserves all the good reputa- tion that its performance has built for it.
 "In our own locality, one of the big features which has made the Repub- lie truck such satisfactory commer- cial asset to every business house is the splendid service station which we have for the care and attention of Republic trucks. Our service is espe- cially valuable to owners, because in case of accident, where breakages oc- cur, we can make any part needed for the instant rebuilding or reassembling of the damaged part. Commercial service is making friends and in- creased sales of Republic trucks every month."

FINNEY LOAN MEETING
Association Condemns National Blu

Garden City. Jan. 16.-The Finney
County National Farm Loan associa
ton held its annual meeting this
week, at which time nearly all of the
old officers were reelected. The re-
port of Secretary Treasurer f. A. Orr
showed that the association had sixty
nine members in good standing who
had obtained s194.700 of government
loans. Twenty-one applications for
loans have been rejected. and three
applications are now pending.
The mana cement of the federal loan
bank received some severe criticisms
from the association, because the bank
sends inspectors out who know abso-
lutely nothing about the conditions of
| this locality to pass on the loans. The
association believes that if the bank
would get competent examiners who
are familiar with this country, or place
the entire responsibility on the local
loan committee. that the workings of
the law would be much more satisfac-
tory.

GIVE BOCHE FOOD
Allies Did Not Want To Be
Forced To Occupy Land.
SO Supplies Are Allowed I'm
ported Into Germany.

Paris, Jan. 16.-Fear that further
occupation of Germany would be
necessary if a serious food shortage
developed prompted the allied food
council to permit importation of sup,
plies into that country, the United
Press is able to state authoritatively
today.
Bolshevik riots in industrial centers
such as Berlin are based upon food
difficulties, it was established 1t was
further ascertained that while Ger
manys supplies are sufficient for the
moment, the people are rapidly con-
Stunning their stocks and would face
actual starvation before spring.
1t was upon representations of the
allied military authorities that the
council decided it was vital 20 per-
init Germany to import foodstuffs
This would insure establishment of
stable government, it was declared,
and prevent the necessity for, further
encroachment by the allied armies
upon German territory.
Under the rules of The Hague con-
vention provisioning of the people
will deyolve upon the armies of &C.
cupation.
When the German supplies are eX-
hausted, if it were necessary to oc-
cupy additional territory, the oblga-
ton naturally would increase. In view
of the conditions revealed by the al
lied military investigations. it is point
ed out that if Germany succumbs to
anarchy she will be unable to make
peace and restitution and indemnities
would be impossible. Germany. how
ever, must pay for every pound of food
imported to save herself from dissolu-
ton,
The allies, it was learned today,
have instructed Marshal Foch to en-
force all provisions of the new terms
included in the armistice in connection
with its prol6ngation. No haggling
such as Germany has been showing
marked tendency to indulge in, will
| be permitted.
The new terms also include transfer
of all gold in the reichsbank in Berlin

cepted by p. m, Friday, the minors
declare they will scatter the bones of
the national agreement to the four
winds and go their own way: Base
ball today faced:
What They Want.
First, big league salary limit of
$1,000 monthly, exclusive of mana
gers salary, already adopted by the
national commission.
Second, a player limit of no more
than 21-pos5ibly 90.
Third, national commission OF hVe
members.
Fourth, abolition of the major
league prerogative of recalling minor
league players after the season opens.
Fifth, abolition of the major league
draft privilege.
These are the most important of the
radical changes sweeping slowly but
surely toward the national game. The
National league already has placed its
approval on the reduced salary and
player limits. 1t also has approved
the non-recall, probably with view
to supplying some alternative rather
than loss of draft privileges The
minor leagues have projected the pro-
posed five men commission and will
present it to the majors with the un-
derstanding, however, that this is not
a demand and is only a tentative plan.
They consider it a good scheme to in
clude the two presidents OF the Dig
leagues, the head of the national as
ISOLATION and two disinterested mem
bers. They want also national board
composed of three members to take
care of differences between the ma jors
and minors. These, however, are only
suggestions.
May Purchase One.
Demands of the minors include
stipulation that the majors be per-
mitted to purchase one man from each
Glass AA club with the further pro-
vision that if he is found wanting he
be turned back for $4,000.
These changes, the minors declare,
are necessary to save them from ami
hilation. The present draft arrange
ments, which is only slightly differ.
ent from the right to purchase one
man idea. allows $1,000 for each
man drafted from AA leagues. The
draft elimination, minors contend, will
do away with the farming" practice
so prevalent now.
The drastic nature of the demands
probably forecasts a decision of the
big leaguers to reject them completely,
with a break in the game that will re-
suit in a great war. Major 1eaguers,
in fact, have threatened to allow the
break and establish new minors to
feed their teams. 1t is believed GER
tain that some agreement regarding
players and salary limits must have
been reached between American and
National leagues. Otherwise there
would not have been such revolution
airy action on salaries by the National.
