What 5 in a Name?

CECILY.

CeCily. though used Interchange

throughout Italy.
Another famous CaeCilia was the
Christian martyr whose body was
disinterrcd in perfect state after
200 years and enshrined in n church.

SETS PLANE AFIRE
5000 FEET IN AIR
Aviator Tests Fireproofing by
Riding Flaming Machine
at Night

New York, Oct. 7.-(By A. P.)-
Experts Of the army and navy avia-
ton service today were preparing re-
ports to the government on the flying
demonstration of a flaming oil soaked,
fre.proofed airplane and its midnigh
landing device. witnessed by them last
night at Mineola. American and Brit
ISL experts who saw the spectacular
demonstration by Paul Collins, a civil
ian flyer, said 1t marked one Of the most
important developments In aviation
since the armistice. y..-
Particular Importance is attached to
the demonstration because Of the recent
loss Of so many mail ayiators caused by
flaming machines. '..
Before making his ascent to an alti-
tude of 5000 feet Collins's machine was
treated throughout with the fire proof
ing dope" and then completely sat
urated with gasoline. Collins himself
donned costume similarly treated. At
his highest altitude he set fire to the
gasoline and thrilled the countryside
by his flaming cometlike course. On
his descent, at about 1000 feet, he also
touched off two large flares of magne-
stun, on the tips of the wings, and by
manipulating two large mirrors under
meath the fuselage, he illuminated the
whole landing field, enabling him to
make perfect daylight" landing.
The fire -proofing, as well as the me-
chanical apparatus for operating the
device, Is the invention OF Parker II.

The anti-Japanese movement is local

Japan should follow the indicated
steps to protect the rights Of her M :
tionals In the belief that the Supreme

actments. II these steps fail Japan will
be justified in resorting to other meas :
ures.
japan s ill-advised diplomacy has
contributed to the American situation.

that the United States and Canada
would interpret the proposal as a
prelude to insisting on the solution of

MANNERS.

Manners would be a -grate thing to judge people by if some of the worst people dident have the best manners. - It is manners for a man to give lady his sect in a trolley car in case she is standing rite in frunt of him looking as if he wished he would Some men only give their sect to old ladies, on account of considering young ladies legs are jest as good as wat theirs are, but most of the time they keep on setting there themselves on account of it being so hard to tell if a lady is reely as old she looks and not being manners to ask her.
 If you are on a ship and it starts to sink for eny reason, it is manners to leeve the winin and children off ferst, so the leest the winlin and children can do to show they appriciate it is to hurry as mutch as possible. The cap tin is supposed to be the last one off, unless he's a lady captin.
 Some of the most important man. ners is table manners. If you are out to dinnir sumwares and your fingers get greecy and you don't wunt to get the napkin too derty, it is a good thing to wipe them on your pants ferst, es- peshilly if your pants are a dark color so it wont show on them. If you spill some seop, it is best to jest say, Well, well, well, insted ct blushing, thus showing you feel at home. If you spill your hole cup of cawfee all over the table cloth, the best thing is to jest ask in a low voice for another cup, thus changing the subjeck.
 If you don't know a persin very we'll, it is not manners to contradict them by saying. Aw, wats you tawking about. Always say, I beg your par din, but you're all rong.
