FooI.Proof Airplane.

The latest model Of British airplane
Is said to be as nearly foolproof as II
Is possible to make such a machine
as an airplane. The machines are so
balanced and the wings so arranged,
that when the engine stops they glide
gradually and easily to earth. The
following test shows how stable these
airplanes are: A pilot climbed to a
sufficient height, and then stopped his
engine and took his hands off the con-
troll, merely keeping his feet on the
rudder bar. He steered for an air.
drome twenty miles away. and, having
headed hep straight. he let the airs
plane do what she liked. She trav-
eled the whole twenty miles as stead
lily as bicycle coasting down long,
straight and gentle hill. OF course
the pilot had to take hold of the con-
troll stick to land the machine in the
airdrome, but except for that, and the
steering, the airplane made the whole
journey by herself.

C0L0GNE's UPS AND DOWNS
important German City Of the Present
Has Had Its Periods Of Dire
Adversely.

During the Middle Ages Cologne
was a place Of great trade; the weav-
ers, the goldsmiths, and the armorers
Of the city were famous the world
over; while Its merchants had houses
In London, and the city itself was ac-
corded chief place in the Hanseatic
league. Decay set in with the dawn Of
the Reformation, and the place owed
Its downfall to its intolerance. Thus.
its university, which in the fourteenth
and fifteenth centuries had great
reputation, began at once to decline.
This policy dealt severe blows at the
prosperity of the town, and when,
in 1874, Cologne was occupied by the
French, 1t was a poor and decayed
city of some 10000 Inhabitants, OF
which only 5000 possessed civil rights.
Since 1915, however, when it was
finally assigned to Prussia, Cologne
has continued to prosper, until to-
day 1t is one Of the most important
cities Of Germany, with population
If nearly half a million.

government insurance is a valuable
right given to you as part OF the
compensation for your heroic and
triumphant services. If you permit
the insurance to lapse, you lose that
right, and you will never be able to
regainit. But If you keep up your
present insurance-by the regular
payment of premiums-you will be
able to change it into q standard
government policy without medical
examination. Meantime you can
keep up your present insurance at
substantially the same low rate, The
government will write ordinary life
insurance, twenty-payment life, en-
dowment maturing at age sixty-two,
and other usual forms of insurance.
This will be government insurance

EDUCATION AND THE PUMPKIN
Eastern Writer Points Out Wherein
the Two Have Some Strong
Points Of Similarity.

press. This habit of wandering In
tortuous uselessness to long distance
from the source of production before
the fruit of the vine is produced is
long known of the pumpkin.
It would not be amiss for our educa-
tors to consider the pumpkin vine; un.
questfonably some Of them have In
earlier days, but whether with view
to It's close analogy to educational
processes Is uncertain. Perhaps II Is
too much to say that the best fruit
Of the educational vine Is produced
from its original source; that what
comes Of schooling is something quite
different from the apparent result at
the source; that the best things man
or woman does are very different from
the particular, or nonparticularized
thing, he or she Is directly taught to
do. We are turning to the business Of
making our schools show quick fruit

But 1t Is at least a fair hazard to
opine that the pupils who become
some pumpkins" will often as not be
products known long way from the
special process of education that ex-
treme vOcationalists advise.

This paper is publishing some
articles on the subject Of irrigation
in the upper Snake river valley, as
1t is proposed to conduct It by devel-
oping the great natural reservoir
sites to store the waters that are
now running to waste. It is proposed
to secure a number of great govern
ment loans to finance the project of
putting the wasting floods on the
rich arid lands and bring the landless
man to the manless land.
Twenty-one newspapers in the up
per Snake river valley are co-operat-

show congress and the public the
possibilities thru development of the
Snake river plains and IL each
reader Of all these newspapers will
renal their papers to their friends
after reading and otherwise try as
hard as the editors do to spread the
light and the truth and to unfold
the mysteries of the great natural
resources and how to combine them,
it will do more good than all the
other publicity the valley has ever

Dogs as Messengers.

Experiments made in the training Of
dogs as messengers with the armies
In the field have, 1t is stated, given
satisfactory results. The dogs which
proved most receptive under instruc-
lions are chiefly half-breed collies and
retrievers. A rather poor breed of
bob-taiied sheepdogs has also done
well. All have been trained to per-
form their errands during heavy fir
ing, both Of rifles and guns. They
can be fired over as easily as the or
binary sporting dog, and what is quite
another thing, they will face fire at
close range.

Better Leave" Facilities.

Paris-Where Napoleon III and
',irg Edward VII Of England spent
nary leisure hours the American en-
listed Ten c:c ,ow at play. The fam
us yacht club at Cannes, founded and
9atronized by King Edward, and St.
5auveur, where the third Napoleon was
wont to go with his court, indicate the
variety of attractions offered by the Y.
M. C. A. in the leave area system oper-
ated in cooperation with the military
authorities. From the Alps to the Pyr-
ennes and from the Brittany coast to
the Riviera, there are seven "Y" leave
areas in which $4,000 soldiers can be
entertained at one time. Preparations
are now under way to increase these
much-appreciated facilities to double
their present capacity.
Representatives Of the army and Of
the Y. NJ. c. A. are now travelling from
one end of France to the other seek
ing new spots in which to set up leave
areas. The experiment at AiX-les-Bains
has been successful from the start,
as America now knows pretty we'll
from first-hand information carried
home by Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr.,
who organized the woman's canteen
work at AK.
"AChes and Palms. was an ideal spot
for the experiment, but six others have
been found and Put in operation, each
equally satisfactory as the original
model Cons aGUc"tly it is with opti-
mism that the army and the "Y" seek
to increase the centres where sure
cures have been found for homesick
doughboys.
Location, climate, hotel accommoda-
tons, opportunities for entertainment
and sightseeing and the moral and
physical cleanliness Of the area are
all-important in the selection of q
leave resort. AS soon as a site Is
selected the largest available is OBJ
tanned by the Y, M. G. A. as its main
center of operations, men and women
are assigned to service and negoti.
atoms are begun to secure reduced
prices from such entertainment en-,
terprises as cannot be duplicated by
the Y. M. c. A and every effort Ia
made to give as much service as Doe
sible. The army provides transpor
tation and pays the hotel bills, thereby
enabling the soldier to enjoy all ths
attractions formerly restricted to
kings and emperors and maleeackors
of great wealth.
The Jetty Casino at Moe and the
Municipal Casino at Cannes are the
centres of attraction in the Riviera
for the $500 men who can be accom-.
modated in this area. Many ofnoerp
favor this Mediterranean section and
there is a "Y" club for them. Every.
thing except the gambling that was
stopped by the government at the b.
Ginning of the war is at the disposal
of the Americans. Golf and tennis and
other athletic sports, bathing, boating
and the companionship Of the local
population are the most popular a.
fractions.
