for a master producer who would take
all the rich material which the old
romantic days of the West really con-
tained for screen drama and make
Of it an artistic, logical photoplay.
William S. Hart answered the call
and now David Wark Griffith has
done it also. Wandering far atield
from the tender small town love story
of 'True Heart SUSIE" Mr.. Griffith
has reincarnated the glowing Calf
fornia of the gold rush days of '49 on
the screen. The picture is called
"Scarlet Days" and through the mas
terry of Griffith its thrilling, heart
appealing story has been given the
artistic touch that raises it TAR above
the ordinary screen feature. 1t is a
Paramount-Artcraft picture and is
being shown this week at the Elko
theatre tomorrow, also Monday and
Tuesday.
There will be special two-reel
comedy show each day, and orchestra

The Stout mOnOplane Is nothing but
giant wing, with all the machinery,
trusting, ct cetera, in the wing. The
engines are set INTO the leading edge,
the passengers are .inclosed between
the surfaces of the wing skin, and ev-
cry part that is exposed to the air is
designed to lift.
The central part Of the wing is
thick and of long chord, the tips thin
and narrow. In fact, the ship follows
more closely the butterfly than the
bird In its plan view and gives more
surface within smaller dimensions
than has hitherto been thought pos
slble For this reason and on account
Of the peculiar trusting inside. all
formed of many piled veneers, the
plane is much lighter, almost half the
weight, In fact, of previous ships of
the same wing area.
The large ship was first flown at
Dayton in the spring Of 1918, and this
machine was used for research and
development work toward later mod
els. At present several commercial
types of ships are being designed or
are on the way, and some enormous
planes intended for military use.
The thick main wing is not only
framed up entirely of veneer, but the
surface as well is formed of this ex-
tremely tough and waterproof mate
rial The veneer on the surface is
three-ply and only one-twentieth of
an inch thick. The wings are strong
enough, however, so that one can walk
all over them as a sidewalk. Though
this ship had 4S0 square feet of wing,
40 square feet more than our best
army two-seater fighter, 1t weighed
less than half as much; 1850 pounds,
in fact. as against 1920 for the army
machine II was built at the same
time with twice the strength factor.
Each wing is supported on either
side by nine spars, any two of which
are strong enough to support the ship
should the others be shot away The
longest spars, with spread Of 20
feet, weighed but seven and a half
pounds and supported in test over a
ton per pair without breakage Sixty
men can be supported on each wing
of this machine without unduly stress
ing the parts, and there is no one
place on the ship that can break and
cause accident without there being

to take its place.
The type is fitted to many uses.

Wind-tunnel tests on the most re-
cent ship show the plane TO have a
"celllng" of $1,000 feet with a little
1S0-horsepower motor. and a climb OF
a mile in two ami a half minutes. A
speed Of $50 miles an hour is possible
with the same engine that in other
ships gives but 20.
