What Doth 1t Profit Him?

When the Federal Council of
Churches takes official cognizance Of
Henry Ford's nti-semitic propaganda
and extends to- "our Jewish brethren
an expression of confidence in their
patriotism and good citizenship" the
utter futility of the insensate cam
paign directed from Dearborn, Mich,
ought to be pretty well indicated. The
vitriolic attacks upon the Jewish peo-
pie cannot possibly affect their stand
ing in any community that does its
own thinking, and there are very few
communities in this country that do
not. One wonders at the cause Of
Ford's attitude. As it becomes more
and more marked, Americans will be
inclined to think that Michigan made
no error of judgment when it refused
to send him to the United States SEN
ate. To be a United States senator a
man should have wish to represent
all the people of his commonwealth.
Clearly the millionaire Of Dearborn
would not have done that.-Duluth

LEARNED SECRET OF INDIANS
Boys Chance Discovery Revealed How
AborIoInes Constructed Their
Bono Arrow Heads.

Gushing, an eminent authority in
matters pertaining to the Indians, has
told US how, as boy, he learned the
way Indians made their flint arrow
heads.
He had unearthed beautiful har-
pooh of bone. He had a toothbrush
with him, and the bone handle Of this
he chopped off and ground down on a
piece Of sandstone to make harpoon
Of his own; but he could not grind
such clean-cut barbs as those Of the
relic.
The boy then took his flint-scales
and chips and set to work with them.
The flint cut the bones away, but left
the work rough. Then accidentally
he made discovery, for no sooner
had he begun to rub the bone trans
versely on the flint than the bone cut
the flint away. Not jaggedly, as his
hammer-stone would have Clipped it,
but in long, continuously narrow sur
face burrows wherever the edge
was caught in the bone at a certain
angle.
He never finished that harpoon. He
turned 1t about and used it as an ar
row cutter, by tying it to a little rod
Of wood with shoestring. He had
found out how the Indians made ar
row heads.

1t Has Come at Last.

| A vcrtical-rising, wingless airplane
has been perfected. For 16 years the
mechanical genius Of four members of
the Leinweberr family Of Chicago has
been concentrated on experimentation
with helicopter-a screw-propelled
flying device in which the lifting is
accomplished by two pair Of horizon
tai blades revolving in opposite direc-

The cherished dream Of decade was
realized when,. in the presence of a
deputation Of noted engineers at the
Speedway park, Chicago, on, Monday,
the novel craft assembled vertically in

weber, the three brothers, witnessed
this triumph Of science. Their father,
Herman Leinweber, who originated
the idea, never lived to see the in
vention perfected.
