That Phoenicians may soon have the opportunity to test a new means of travel in which the speed of the air plane is united with the safety of the street car, and that it my be the Ari- zona nucleus of a system of transpor- tation that will make the most inac- cessfble mountain tops easy to reach and will span the widest and deepest canyons almost at a leap, are the ann bilious ideals of Fred F. Schoberle, chief aeronautical engineer, designer and advisor for the Devino Aerial Ap- paratus company of Los Angeles, has just completed a weeks examination of the possibilities awaiting his ma chine in this state.
 The Devino Aerial apparatus in- cludes two cables hung from towers, and a car, shaped like the fusilage of an airplane. which is suspended from them by eight wheels so made as to prevent derailment. Between the two supporting cables is an electric cable which furnishes electricity to the mo- tors of the car in the same manner as a trolley wire does for a street car. The motors turn over propellor, placed in the front of the car, which draw 1t through the air in the same manner as the propeller of an airplane drags the machine after it.
 A line has been built already be- tween Seal Beach and Venice in Cali fornia, and is said to have proved the dependability, comfort and speed of the new form of transportation. A speed of 100 miles an hour has been

CITY SCHOOLS OPEN
 WITH ADO PUPILS

The Phoenix city schools opened yesterday with 4,100 pupils taking their places, or an increase of 30 per cent over last year. This unpreee- dented increase will force the school authorities to make arrangements to transfer pupils from those schools which are particularly crowded. These are the Adams, Capitol and Garfield schools, and transfer from this school will be made chiefly to the Wentworth school, according to John D. Loper, superintendent of city schools.
 All teachers for the year were pres ent yesterday when school opened. They number 159 this year. with many applications coming in, according to the authorities. These applications, it is said, are from teachers of a high standard.
 The first semester, which began yes terday, will extend until about Febru- arv l, and the second one will last until about the last of May. Five months are given to the first semester because it is during this period that the greater part of the years holidays come, such as Fair week, Thanksgiving day and the Christmas period.

NNE of the most surprising O reversals of opinion ever known in the history of shaving has suddenly come about.
 In the past four mOnths-since the introduction of the new Gill 1ette razor, the BIG FELLOW more men have given up the old fashioned way of shaving for the Gillette habit than in any similar period of time heretofore.
 Many of them, men who had always looked upon the safety feature of the Gillette as its only

 There was something about the Big Fellow, the Gillette with the longer handle and heavier head, that appealed to them the instant they saw its size and felt its weight and balance.
 And the men who used to think they couldn't shave with a safety razor are making the Gillette Big Fellow their particular razor-and the fastest selling razor that has ever been placed on the market
