SKY PICTURE OF 1850
Predicts Lanes
 Crowded With Flyers

Chicago-Frederic Handley-Paige is the British airplane manufacturer whose combat and bombing planes proved such nuisance to the kaiser's hired hands during the late unpleas- antness. He knows airplanes back wards and forwards. and when he talks of them he uses facts and fig ures and bases his conclusions on spe- cific knowledge.
 This is by way of exclamation that the following is not the child of a stimulated imagination.
 "The sky in 30 years-ah, what picture it will be-" the Britisher said. "A Jules Verne might do the subject justice. I cannot.
 But let us take a nice, bright sum- mer morning in 1850. It is just after dawn and the sun has lifted the blan- ket of night.
 Suddenly, in the distance, whir- ring noise strikes the ear. Then an other and another It is the air milk men coming to the city. One by one they will swoop down to the parking space, and their offerings to the city's breakfast transferred to motor cars.
 sThen he will see the produce ex- press machines winging to the city with green stuff and fruits.
 s.Then the mail men, hurrying east, west, north and south at 150 miles an hour.
 "As the day wears on and business in the street increases, the suburban air expresses will commence to land at the public airdromes with their commuters, who live, let us say, 300 miles from the city, where rents are cheap.
 'Then the air lanes become choked with heavy machines, whirring and sputtering, loaded with express freight, bound for distant points.
 "In other lanes-one-way cloud boulevards, you may call them-the pleasure machines will become more numerous. You will hear the people talk of the newest things in carbu- retors, the mileage this machine and that can get out of gallon of gaso- line.
 And perhaps, seated on the roofs of skyscrapers or in church steeples you will see the traffic policemen of the sky, directing the landing from the crowded heavens"
 There was no smile on Handley- Paige's face. He talked in no breath less, dreamy fashion. It was a plain matter-of- fact statement for him.
 These things are as certain to come as the sun is to rise daily" he said. "Our London-Paris line is now an old and well established thing. Our experiments make passenger and freight problems comparatively simple one.
 "Of course, interocean travel by airplane is still an unsolved one. do not think the airplane will be per fected for this long journey for many. many years. But local journeys and the things have outlined will be too common within the next three de- cades to cause any comment There will also be problems of public air dromes and sufficient parking spaces in cities, but time will care for these things which perplex us now.

LIBERTY BONDS POPULAR Public Is Awakening to Fact They Are Worlds Best Investment

Indication that the public has ceas- ed to be a spendthrift and is again inclining toward thrift and sound in vestment is seen in the heavy inquir- ies for small denomination Liberty Bonds at Banks and brokers through out the country.
 The demand has reached the Treas ury Department, many dealers hav- ing exhausted their available supply of the popular sizes of these securi- ties, it was announced today by the Savings Division of the Treasury De- pertinent.
 To supply the large lover the coun- ter' demand for $50 and S100 bonds at present favorable market prices, the Treasury Department has issued instructions to the Federal Reserve Banks which will expedite exchange of larger denominations for the small units.
 The instructions also provide ways and means by which banks and deal CTS may obtain the smaller denomina- tions in the first instance if their GUS toners require them.

AN IMPORTANT ELECTION

The annual school election will be held throughout the State as fixed by law on Saturday, May 18th. This is one of the most important elections in which our people are called upon to participate. This election is of special importance at this time when so many new demands are being made upon the public schools. This is the time above all times when the needs of our schools should be well provid- ed for. We owe it to ourselves, to our children and to America to make our schools as efficient as possible. Let all friends of education stand by their guns at this time. Let school boards get together before the election and lay we'll their plans and present them solidly to the people at the election. Keep in mind that in the period Of readjustment our schools must have larger funds-in other words they must be adequately supported if these schools are to meet in the proper way the ever increasing de- mands that are being made upon them.

it is enormously thought that there

THE high cost of wild animals, oc>
4 casioned by the world war, has
had a serious effect on the collections
in the geological parks of most Am.
erican cities, but recent census OF
wild life in the greatest game pre-
serve in the United States, Yellow
stone National Park, proves that the
elk, bear, deer, and beaver families
are in no sense fearful of the future,
according to a bulletin issued today
from the Washington headquarters
of the National Geographic Society.
"A splendid increase in the num-
Der of young wild animals in this
preserve has been observed this year
by the National Park Service officials,
who early in the spring feared that
the abnormally severe winter would
cut down seriously the newborn of
many species which make the park
their home," says the bulletin.
among the elk especially, the
calves are more than fifteen per cent
of the total herds, as compared with
yearly average of about fourteen
per cent. Officials are more gratltled
at the increase in elk than in any
other animal, because of the terri
BILE slaughter which occurred when
some herds wandered out of the park
into Montana last winter and were
Killed by hunters.
Bear cubs have received almost
as warm ! welcome as the young
elk. While lLut bears suffered little
from the winter which they slept
through, probably not knowing snow
was on the ground, scores persisted
at the hands of hunters Lefore the
alternating season began, when ear
ly fall storms drove them out of the
park. Bears are among the most in
teresting survivals of wild American
game and not dangerous if unmolest-
ed, so that the Yellowstone officials
believe that a closed season in the
adjacent states should be established
to prevent determination. No animals
give more pleasure to the thousands
of Americans who visit Yellowstone
each year than the bears, especially
the playful cubs, which already are
learning the begging habits of their
mothers and wheedling candy and
other sweets from tourists.
Deer suffered from the hard win
ter which, buried their pasturage
under many feet of snow, but being
browsing rather than grazing animals
like the elk, they came through with
less damage. Fawns have been seen
frequently by summer visitors, one
especially on the terraces at Nam
moth Hot Springs becoming quite
tame and being photographed almost
as much as the bear cubs or Ola

hard times while his pantry was well
stocked. Yellowstone Park boasts
some of the finest examples of beav-
er architecture in existence, notably
the houses and dam on the road from
Tower Falls to Mammoth Hot
Springs, where a large ad growing
community is sheltered.
"Porcupines, having adjusted their
digestion to bark and twigs of trees,
had food within reach all winter,
even though the snow covered the
more toothsome grasses which they
love. The tame buffalo were bounti-
fully fed from the time the grass
was covered until spring came, and
the wild herd likewise obtained am
pie food somehow, for they have
shown satisfactory increase. Hiber-
mating animals other than bears, such
as ground squirrels, groundhogs,

winter, but small animals that do not
sleep probably persisted in numbers.

THE GOLDEN RULE AND LABOR
BY DIR. JAMES l. VANCE

On every hand we confront restless
ness, discomfort and strife. Produc-
ton is diminishing. Strikes are cease
less. Frequently the cause for dis
agreement between employees and
employer seems trivial. Freight is
tied up. Supplies are going to waste.
And this is the happy time we looked
forward to as the aftermath of the
World War.
Laws are enacted and force is en-
ployed, but the row goes on. In
stead of healing the breach, the two
sides seem wider apart than ever.
Where is this thing to end? Is the
world gone mad?
Suppose capital and labor could
approach each other in terms of the
I Golden Rule, who doubts but things
would begin to improve? Let the
employer put himself in the place of
the man who works for him, and
then let him treat that man as he
would want to be treated. Let the
Iaborer put himself in the place of
his employer, and then let him do to
his employer the same thing he would
want done to himself.
Shall we say this is not practical!
Go tell that to the marines! 1t may
not be practical for wild beasts, but
it is for men made in Gods image.
1t is the only way out of the jungle.

He would speak. What would He
say?
He would say, l fancy, what He

whether capitalists or wage-earners,
to do unto their fellows as they
would have their fellows to do unto
