NEW ERA DAylNS FOR WORLD
with the Conquest of the Air, Life
Has Changed From the Old
Scheme OF Things.

Do the people of today realize the
great changes which now are moving
over the scheme of the universe?
We should look well on the OLD or
der before 1t has faded away. We
stand ON the edge Of the new epoch in
the history Of mankind. In the air we
have Just conquered a new element Of
Uncomfortable immensely. With the
palms of victoiXs in every hand we
have a slightly overwhelming sense OF
our power.
Almost in q moment the span OF the
world has shruhlz to q quarter OF it's
former size. Where we thought in
countries now we think in contipents.
Where we thought in days now we
think in hours, observes a writer IN
London Daily Mail.
We have the power of throwing a
girdle round the earth. Remote Aus
tralia suddenly draws close. Green
land and Spitzhergen loom over US.
Rome and Christiania and Amsterdam
are quaint foreign suburbs of London.
Nation almost merges into nation.
| Perhaps the desire Of ages may by a
| glorious fraction draw nearer and the
splendor of a world peace and peace
full world may materialize a LITTLE
| through the air.
Now should we take our fill of the
old scheme of things. In twenty years
| time our life today will seem 10000
years old. The ancient civilizations OF
Rome and Egypt will not be more
! legendary. How lucky are we, who
are young, to be able to see this swift
and dazzling age of the air move
triumphantly into>being.
Nc longer is Japan an unattainable
dream. The Nile lies but day ant
a half away On glorious honeymoonS
we can slip away into the star-beflow
cred darkness of the East to drift a
dawn above some fragrant island Of
Greece.
T Over the rolling whiteness Of th'
limitless cloudland. under a limitles'
! sky Of unimagined depths, we vii
wing our long and easy way through
health-inspiring wind to the colder
sun-drowsed beaches of the southern
seas.
i This new life viii not spoil our love
| ly world. Less than the train or tn
whirling car will our journeyngs dis
turb the earth. On the blue above ou
white wings will glitter, for a mo
ment-a little murmuring as of bee
will cinlx IN fha ground below and w,
shall be gone. The world, unstaine'
ard pure. goes on rejoicing into tn
era of the air.

WAS SHIPS HAVEN
Losgh SWiIIey of Great Value to
Allied Fleets.
Deep-Wat Inlet Formed Break IN
Towering Rocks That Form the
Coast Line of North Donegal,
on the Irish Coast.


The destroyer guard is gone from
Tough Swilley. The Yankee ships no
longer round the grim Hack heights
of Knockalla. The hamlets OF Bun
crana and Letterkenny Nave settled
back into the undisturbed quiet OF the
north Donegal peasant towns.
Before the war Tough Swilley was
little known to the outside world, oO-
serves the Kansas City Times. Few
shins ever entered between the fols
bidding walls of granite that rise on
either side of the inlet. But the war
made it a haven for merchant ships,
q base for destroyers, and the only
home the wandering trawler feet OF
that section of the sea ever had.
The, t1ough' is pronounced as
though spelled l-o-k-h. 1t is the irish
cousin of the Scottish "loch," and
not far distant relative of the English
'lake."
Sheer and sinister rise the cliffs OF
north Donegal. They form one or the
most forbidding coast lines anywhere
in the world. To the steamer tor
pedoed off this coast there was little
hone. for there was no chance there to
beach a vessel When the big l4,0OO-
ton Flavia was hit off the DOne9al
coast last August she stayed up three
hours. but was lost because she could
not limp the so miles or so to a spot
where. there was break In those
dark walls of stone.
Tough Swilley is such break IN
the towering rocks of the coast line.
It is a narrow inlet of water running
back into County Donegal some thirty
miles. And it is deep enough all the
way for ships of heavy draught. Ii
was of incalculable value to the allied
fleets and merchant shipping during
the war, because it offered alike q
haven and well-placed base for oper
ations against the marauding subma
rines that slipped around the coast OF
Scotland.

pirates made their haven, swung the

Burmese Novels.

Although the production of books
of all kinds fell off in recent years,
there was one interesting feature no.
ficed in the increasing number of Bur-
mese novels in the vernacular modelled
after the pattern OF English novels
and dealing with modern Burmese life.
They are written in language more
closely akinSto c0lloQuial Burmese than
to the stilted and high-hown literary
diction generally used, and those who
are considered judges say that, though
a satisfactory literary medium has not
vet been evolved the most recent pro-
auctions show that a decided improve
ment has been made on earlier at
tempts.

ORIGIN Of Bells.

The use of bells originated in SUI
perstition. They were first used in
China, a great many centuries ago., and
their original purpose was to dispel
and clear the air of "evil spirits" also
to break up and drive away storms.
From China bells We're. eventually in
troduced into Europe. Old records tell
US how the tolling of bells kept the
Spirits of darkness" from assailing
people while in the act of worship.
Hence the connection of bells with
churches. It was only at a compare
lively recent date that bells were used
for calling the people to church For
ages they were designed solely for
keeping evil spirits at a safe distance.

Revivinu HeraIdry.

In the use /of devices and weapons
that linked the great war with the
wars of preceding centuries, the adop-
ton of a kind of heraldry by the
airinen revived also the individuality
Of medieval shields and banners.
Sometimes this heraldry turned out to
be a mistaken symbolism, as in the
case of the German aviator who en-
blaaoned hrs. fighting plane with a Ba-
varian lion in pursuit of a French
cocle. The emblems varied according
to taste; an Indian shooting an arrow,
the flying stork, the Indian head with
which Lufbery decorated his machine ;
the winged serpent. an ancient token
of wisdom and speed; a dove, and a
comet. In an older time such insignia
would. no doubt, have become heredi-
ttry. In the twentieth century they
served simply to express the brave
gayety and humor of youth.

That even the early horseless car
rage retained at least one character
istic of it's honorable predecessor, the
horse, is evinced by the following item
written in 1900: "The claim ADVANCED

India,s Goal Supplies.

Mr.. Fl. Kelway- Bamber, former SUI
perintendent of rolling stock, East
Indian railway, speaking at the So
ciety Of Arts, said that the coal re,
sources of India We're estimated at
79,001, 100000 tons--ten times as great
as those of Japan. Europe's coal de-
posits were estimated at 7S4 100000
600 tons. OF the. numerous coal fields
of proved value in India only IS were
being worked, the reason being found
in the Sremote position of the coal
fields from parts and existing centers
Of industry. Sir Charles HI. Arm
strong, chairman Of the Great India
Peninsula railway, who presided, said
! that very large AMOUNT Of coal would
be produced in India IL labor We're

those who had worked the heavy traf-

empire was victorious in NIesopotamia.
