Blindfolded Bats Teach FLYERS
10 Avoid Collision by Sound

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10. - British
aviation scientists have solved the
secret Of how bats avoid objects they
cannot see and are applying their dis
covery to air craft in the hope of safe
guarding them against collisions. Re
ports of the experiments, made pub
lie here to-day by an army aviation
statement, said progress was being
made with devices adapted from studies
of the bats which would act as pre-
ventatives against collisions of air
craft.
According to the statement the
scientists blindfolded number of bats
and released them in a room which
was crossed with many wires and parti-
toned from another room by a grid
containing holes just large enough for
the bats to fly through. The result was

of the company was due to the sudden

Until Friday night the leaders of the

of declaring that they would assist the

Stewart, B. CA mountain goat recently was responsible for the dis covery of what is believed to be one of the valuable mines of British Col umbia. .-
 Years ago float ore was found in the mountain range south of the Grand Trunk Pacific railway ten miles from Stewart, It was so rich that. its discovery created sensation and prospectors Hooked to the region and spent months in fruitless efforts to locate the vein.
 Recently a man hunting mountain goats high above the timber line had trailed an animal for miles when it suddenly came out on glacier and stood in full view against the sky on a pinnacle of ice. His rifle cracked and the goat fell dead down steep precipice and rolled several hundred

BIG LUMBER PRODUCTION

The lumber mills of Arizona last year produced a record output of 121,- 100000 board feet. This is consider ably in excess of the production of New Mexico. Several new mills have been put in operation that will greatly increase the production of the state, although there was an inclination the first of the year to slow down activity in the lumber woods. Arizona hard pine is much sought for by contractors for inside finishing, the pine taking handsome polish and retaining it's
 shape as well as oak.

CHINESE PRINCE
AFRAID To RIDE
IN AUTOMOBILE
Takes First Look at Car From
Safe Distance and Sends
Regrets.

An automobile party drove up In
front of the royal palace in Chinese
province a few weeks. ago and sent
word In to the ruling prince that they
would like to take him out for a ride.
But this particular prince, 1t seems
had never seen an automobile before
and was 90 terrified at the prospect
of riding. in one that he did not even
express his regret in person. He did
his inspecting from safe distance
and then sent out his card.
The appearance of the car, accord.
ing to a Chung Mel News Agency Dis
patch from Picking, caused great ex-
element through the princes home
town.
Trip Successful

can naval attache, and e. G. McPher-
son, manager of u. w. Frazer & Co.."
saws the dispatch, "have completed
the round trip to Tungling. the Ming
Eastern Tombs, by automobile. and
1t is believed that this Is one Of the
first times that this trip has been
successfully made"
"In the old days, when II was the
fashion to go out on horseback, the
trip took some three days one way,
at least two nights being spent on the
road. BY automobile, in spite Of the
sandy roads. the rivers that had to
be crossed by ferry. and the many
other difficulties encountered. the en-
tire trip was done in eight hours. and
without any mishaps OF any kind. A
Dodge Brothers car was used.
THE party left the Tsihyamen, or
East Gate, at o'clock on Thursday
morning: $50 saw them at the Pei
Ho, and 9:15 at San Ho Hsien. This
was the place that was selected in the
days of pony travel as the stopping
place on the first night, and by auto
mobile was reached in a scant three
hours and a quarter. The second
nights stopping place, Dichow, was
reached at 11:45, and at 2:15 the party
rolled into the Eastern Tombs and
were met by the Manchu princes

Primo Couldn't See It.
'"The old Manchu prince apparently
could not screw up his courage to
sufficient height to venture the trip
in the machine, that was offered him.
After preliminary courtesies. he with
drew and thereafter sent in his card,
excusing himself. The priest and his
number two went, however, and It
was said that they were scared out OF
their wits throughout the entire trip.
!. Little trouble was encountered on
the way. The three rivers that were
crossed gave some trouble, one be-
cause the bridge seemed ready to cave
in at any minute. and the other two
because there were no bridges at all,
and the crossing had to be made by
means of three boats dashed together,
with the car put on them laterally.
At Dichow. the stone block in the
center Of the main gateway, against
which the city gates are closed, was
SO high that the car could not pass
over It, nor was there any other way
around. So part of the city wall was
appropriated and q runway built
across the gateway, over which the
Dodge Brothers car crawled as easily
as you please. Throughout, in spite
of the fact that IL was necessary to
60 a great part of the way in low
gear, the Dodge Brothers car ran
beautifully, and proved itself entirely
satisfactory"

Motorists Advised To
Keep Data On Tire
Mileage

Every automobile owner should
carry a small memorandum book
for recording his tire data, Elk
perts say the car owner should
not guess at the cost OF tire mile
age any more than he would guess
at an important cost in his bust
ness.
When a tire is purchased, the
date, price and make should be re-
corded. When it is placed on a
wheel, the mileage on the speed
ometer should be entered. If 1t is
shifted from one wheel to another,
the dial reading at the time Of the
change should be noted. AL re-
pairs to the tire and their costs
are recorded with the mileage the
tire had run at the time they were
made.
Miller tire testing experts say
records of this kind show the car
owner at all times the exact cost
Of his mileage, and give an intel
ligent guide to buying new castings
and tubes. ..
