SEA SLEDS FOR AlRPLANES
Speed Of Giant Floats Makes the
Taking OF From Small Space
Matter OF Ease.

Giant sen sleds capable of carrying
alfplanes out I'm midOcean are being
developed by n Boston concern. Some
are equipped with four motors. total
ing 1850 horsepower. and have a
speed of 50 miles an hour.
In the event Of war with a foreign
nation these sea sleds would be utll-
lied TO transport heavy bombing
planes across the ocean. Thousands
could be sent at comparatively low
cost

to leave the deck of a sea sled. there
is not sufficient room for landing 10

have 10 work out its own salvation
once It's wheels left the sled.
These sea sleds are built TO lift and
run on the surface OF the water. When
speed OF 80 miles an hour Is reached
II is possible for an alrplane to open
Its motors and leave the deck without
any further runway.

counter moyements-one on the part of

they are of the greatest assistance to Mr.
Harding by their effort to keep anybody
in the senate from going into the cabinet
and another group which really wants, to
have good deal to say in the next admin

eomplish it is by retaining in the senate
all the strong men, and making the capi-

Relief Work

Editor F. E. Curry of the Steel
County Observer of Finley, was
among the committee from that city
who visited Hope Monday in the in
terest of Near East Relief. Viii.
in town, Bro. Curry gave US pleas
ant call and outlined the work to be
accomplished by this committee in
this county.
The Near East Relief has organ
lied county branches all over the
state and these county committees
are responsible for the care of cer-
tain number of the suffering chill
dren in the Near East. Steele Co.'s.
quota of children to be cared for is
thirty-six. OF this number Finley
has pledged to care for thirteen,
leaving twenty-three for the rest of
the towns Of the county.
The pledge calls for the payment
of five dollars per month per child
for the period of one year, the mon
ey being sent to a central Office where
it is used in supplying the needs OF
the destitute children. Several OF
the schools have pledged this amount
already, as also have many Of the
lodges. and societies, etc.

Attendance

We are proud to announce that all
children of school age in the follow
ing districts are attending school:
Easton, Greenview, Sherbrooke, Riv-
erside, Hugo, Broadlawn, Enger,
Willow Lake. Westfeld, Colgate, and
Franklin. We trust the rest Of the
districts will soon report the same.
am sure we all realize that the we'll
equipped schools with the best of
teachers amount to nothing unless
the children attend. After all, it is
the children that make the school.
Every patron and each member of
the school board ought to visit the
school in order to find out what is
being done there. When a farmer
hires man to plow he not only pro-
vides him with plow and teams,
but he also goes out into the field
to see what is being done and how it
is done. Why not ascertain what is
being done in our schools and how
it is done? School superintendents
and teachers are only public servants
whose work ought to stand inspec-
tion.

almost an endless amount of wound
wire but Sverre did not hesitate to
tackle the job and within a half day
had found the defective parts and
had the machine in working order
again. This piece of work speaks
highly for the electrician as it was
anly few months ago when the pa
irons of Hope were without light
and power for two or three weeks
on account of like piece of work
having to be sent to the cities to be
done. During the time of the last
repairing job, however, the people
were given continuous service by the
