AIRPLANES NEXT

F. S. Wetmur, of the Rhodes Auto
says he wouldn't be a bit
surprised if his company within the
next few years should be advertising
airplanes for sale.
Not as much surprised, he declares,
as he would have been a few years
ago if someone had told him he
would be selling as many automobiles
in Henderson county as he is today.
This is, even now, a constant source
of amazement to Mr.. Wetmur and SO
he declines to say he will be surprised
when he sells airplanes to the farmers
of good old Henderson.
The makers of the Overland car,
sold by this firm, are owners 0of the
Curtiss a~irplane, which they are max
ing now. Therefore it may be ex-
pected hat the city fathers of the
very near future will be called upon
to regulate the parking of airplanes
in the town as they r now calleC
upon to regulate the parking Of the
everyday automobile.

OPEN LETTER TO BOARD

Editor Hustler:
Now that a new mayor and three
new members Of the city council, IN
animously chosen to help conduct our
municipal business, have taken their
places in the governing body 1 trust
helpful suggestions made in the right
spirit mean no offense to any Que who
has been elevated to these RESPONSE
BILE positions. And among the many
important matters needing prorurt and
careful consideration 1 will mention
only two.
The first is a matter you all have
doubtless heard criticized and dis
cussed before. I refer to the present
manner of parking cars in Main street.
To begin with, you cannot stop cars
or other vehicles from standing at the
curbs. You a only put a limit on
the time they stand there; and then
they have only to move ten feet and
stop again. This being so, standing
cars cross-wise in the middle of Main
street blocks up the whole street at
times. The thing works very nicely

This would be much more convenient
than the present way of doing it, and
would eliminate the danger and neces-

thoroughfare every time one leaves
their car to reach the sidewalk. Els
pecially, would it be a convenience to
tourist families who are now forced
to sit in cars standing in the broiling
sun all day long. There is never any

fer to the present crazy schedule o.

be raised and a saving c. perhaps 70
per cent effected in the water supply.
The present schedule operates as an
incentive to waste water. There are
phases of this matter I would prefer
not to discuss in the newspapers, for
obvious reasons. Suffice it to say
here that, while there should be a dit
erence in cost to large consumers
and small ones of course just as there
is a difference in prices of other COM
modities by wholesale and retail,
three hundred to four hundred per
cent is too much difference between
the prices of water by retail and
wholesale.

there is no panic in the foreman
market at present.
Now the poor Ignorant as this
daily wishes to make him appear) ap-
prentice boy is leaving school and
going in to serve four long weary
years to learn a trade so he can make
an honest livelihood. He would like
to have continued his education, but
the time came when father or
mothers pocket book could not reach
the expenses, and the boy was per-
fectly willing to do his bit. He gave
up his school and dropped his educa
tion to do it, ard it is no more than
right that the corporation, company,
or employer who is willing to accept
his service should see that his educa
tion is not entirely neglected. Now
these different railroads that have
this apprentice school system are not
thinking entirely Of the apprentice,
its their own welfare that is at stake
They have begun to see the man with
the education can most always figure
some way to get out of serious
difficult position. Then again he can
be handed a blue print which he has
never seen, and when he is done each
and every piece will fit in place be-
cause he had the proper education
and could read and reason just how
it should be. Who then derives the
greater benefit? The B. & o. is not
the only road that has apprentice
schools, from Chicago south and west
nearly all large roads have apprentice
schools and are profting by it.
In all probability the man who
wrote that piece did not stop to think
there were some people who had seen
one or two other roads. Out of ten
different terminals, or as many diff
ferent roads, have not seen tools
! handled ii. e.) renewed broken parts
and repaired with the mechanical
ability that one sees in the B. & o.
shops at Newark. It's no wonder the
men were all agrivated, for this is the
second rap taken at Newark and the
B. & o. shops in about one week s
time, as in the early part of the week
they had us moving to Columbus.
But some people are never satisfied
unless they are knocking, and the!
have used their little hammer so long
that the handle is about gone. If they
want to be up to date let them come
down to the B. & o. and we will lend
them an air hammer, then they can
knock to their hearts content, and if
it should get out of order we have
tool makers who can repair it-and
they learned it all in Newark. Our
Chamber of Commerce is trying to
boost Newark, and while they are
working night and day for a larger
and better Newark this daily publica-
tion is trying to run away the oldest
and largest paying industry we have.

Philadelphia, Sept. 17.-Congress- man J.

BULGARIA FAVORS
 SELF DETERMINA NATION
Is Willing to Subscribe to Any Settlement Based Along These
 Principles, It Is Said.

Geneva. Switzerland, Sept. 1 (Cor- respondence of The Associated Press) --"Bulgaria is willing to subscribe to any settlement of the Bulgarian questions based on the principles of self-determination of natonalites, " said Ivan Guichof, formerly Bulgar- now minister to Switzerland, in a e. cent statement. If the settlem ent were made on this basis, peace in the Balkans would of necessity fol- low" the minister continued.
 If permitted to live within their own legitimate limits, the Bulgarians would prove the most dem ocratic. tolerant and peaceful people in the Balkans" said Guichof. They have always wished to have a better under standing with other Balkan states.
 Its is evident that Bulgaria's geo. graphical situation imposes certain conditions for it's unimpeded econonl- ic development. Should these condi- tions be disregarded by the peace conference, the future of Bulgaria, as well as of the Balkans, would be greatly affected. One of these con- ditions, perhaps the chief one, is the preservation by Bulgaria of the Aegean Littoral.
 Bulgaria is willing to have all of her disputes with her neighbors de- cided by a disinterested international l commission. She would also gladly welcome another Carnegie commi5- sion to investigate the conduct of all of the Balkan belligerents, and this already has been proposed by her.

The Farm Tractor.

Do you know what the farm trac--
tor has done for us during the last
year? $4,000 farm tractors, now
used in America, have enabled the
farmer to produce magnificent
crops in the face of an unprecedent-
ed shortage of labor and a shortage
of horse power.
These tractors are replacing
100000 horses and mules, and
100000 men. They prepare the
ground for our food crops and later
cultivate and harvest them. The
increase the efficiency Of our farm
machinery.
The man who has driven old
Dobbin or two old Dobbins labori-
ously up and down the burrows is
in position to realize the virtues
of the farm tractor,
