WHAT'S IN THE NAME
"AMERICA"

Millions sing America; compare
lively few know the origin of the
name. It's history and its symbolism
are described In a communication to
the National Geographic society by
John III. Finley as follows:
America name that was first
heard on the planet, or at any rate
first put on a printed page, according
to the best authorities, in the village
of st. Die, among the Vosges noun

ION a pilgrimage to this valley of
the Vosges some years ago, I found
still standing the cloisters where the
scholars had lived who wrote The In

that the name America be given to
the newly-discovered fourth continent
and who prepared the now famous
map on which the emerging continent
was identified. There, too, l found
the site Of the old printing shop. and
the house itself in which the printer,
Jean Basin, had lived.

Germans had occupied II, and In 1917

HELPS TO CONSOLE INSANE
Mind Said to Have Tendency to
Benefit Them.

There Is tendency for many peo-
pie TO believe that when an insane per-
son Is put with other insane people
the contact dlsturbs their minds, says
the New York Medical Journal. On
the contrary, as a rule the insane are
benefited by this association. The in
sane grow impatient and unsettled
when they are constantly associated
with those who are rational, because,
irrational themselves, the constant dis
agreements irritate them.
On the other hand, when the in
sane are brought In contact with those
who are more irrational than them
selves they derive some consolation
from the fact, for even for them con-
tentment Is the feeling that things
might be worse. They are often slim
ulated by the example of the irration-
allty of those around them to realize
their decisions and to use their own
reasoning powers to a better advan-
tage.

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

Giant sea sleds capable Of carrying
aIrplanes out in midocean are being
developed by Boston concern. Some
are equipped with four motors, total
ing 1,750 horsepower, and have
speed Of So miles an hour.
In the event of war with foreign
nation these sea sleds would be util-
lied to transport heavy bombing
planes across the ocean. Thousands
could be sent at comparatively low
cost
While II Is possible for an airplane
to leave the deck of sea sled, there
is not sufficient room for landing to
be made. The flying machine would
have to work out It's 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
n speed of so miles an hour Is reached
II is possible for an airplane to open
It's motors and leave the deck without
any further runway.
Experiments made Off the New Eng
land coast show that a small airplane
can take off, when the sea sled is
making but 40 miles an hour In a
heavy sea. other tests are being made
to develop the high power planning sea
sieds into pleasure craft as well as for
military and naval purposes.

MANILA; KANSAS CITY OF
THE PHILIPPINES

In connection with the continued dis
cussion OF independence for the Phil
ippines the capital city OF the islands.
Manila becomes of special interest.
AS transport wends inward from
the China sea, II passes the island Of
Corregidor, beyond which stretches
Manila bay, whose 120-mile circumfer-
ence could surround the navies Of the
world Its rival will not be found In
the far East. On the right of it's en-
trance stands Cavite, where Dewey
sank the Spanish feet.
From the bay the city OF Manila
seems to lie almost at water level
with hazy mountains for a back
ground. Before the United States
came TO the islands Manila was
sleepy town, sprawled lazily beyond
the bay and the wharves OF the river
Pasig, which bisects II. It's streets
were quiet and almost deserted ut
times, its suburbs shady and pretty,
and general air Of "manana" per-
vaded its atmosphere.
Today its estimated population
equals that OF Jersey City, Indianap-
oils or Kansas City; the river Is alive
with launches and vessels of every
description, including the households
Of a literally floating population of
fifteen thousand; and through its port

Out from the walled city near the
bay shore is Luneta, q small amuse-
ment park, and Wallace field, used
for sports and the annual carnival.
In the days of Spanish rule Wallace
field was an execution ground for po-
litical prisoners, and here DR.. Jose
Rial, the Filipino surgeon, novelist
and patriot, was executed.
Manila's chief shopping district Is
north of the river, and enterprislng
Filipinos, Americans and Chinese have
set up stores, banks. factories and
restaurants, giving this portion of the
city an up-and-doing air.
