AIR elders IN COMPETITION
Meeting in the Rhone District
Of Germany.

A German gliding and soaring COM
petition was recently held in tie
RhOne district by the League Of Ger
man Model Aircraft and Gliding Clubs.
The meeting was married by an unfOr-
tunate accident. resulting in the death
of the w~ell-known pilot, Won Loessei.
This was due to breaking in the air
at the elevator of his glider. A number
of monoplanes and biplanes were en-
tered, reports the Scientific American.
some of very novel design. Many OF
the entries had comfortable seats and
landing gear as distinguished from
the Old-time elders in which the Oper-
atOr's legs swung from below the
planes, ready to take up the strain Of
hard landing, often at the price Of
serious injuries. The longest distance
covered by the gliders was 1880 me-
tiers, with a duration of 1926 seconds.
That record was made by Klemperer,
with a height of $50 meters. The ap-
parent gliding angle OF Klemperer's
flight was one in thirty-one.

More Than Two Years En- Route.

In June. 1918. some Canadian sol
liers, crossing the Atlantic to join the
forces In Europe. threw overheard in
mid-Ocean a sealed bottle with a note
inside to the effect that they were on
their way to the war and asking the
finder Of the bottle to forward the note
to the Toronto Sunday World. The
bottle has just been washed ashore at
st. Ives I'm Cornwall and the request
been carried out. What would he in
teresting to know would be where the
bottle has been during the last two
years and a half. and what is the drift
that brings so much fiotsam and jet
sam into the harbor of the little fishing
town on the Atlantic. There are many
theories. Of. which credits the Gulf
stream with a memory for the old
smuggling days and an intention. in
the case Of the Canadians bottle. to
show awareness Of these good new
days which find fresh uses for things
of unloyely repute.

MANUSCRIPT OF PRESIDENTIAL
MESSAGES SAVED BY THE SENATE
Mr.. Harding's Nomination of Cabinet
Members Will Be Added to This
Valuable Collection.

When President Harding sends his
Cnited States Senate March ). the
first official act of a new President.
another historical public document
will be added to the carefully pre-
the custody of the Office of the Sec
retary of the United States Senate.
This volume contains the original
messages to the Senate from the vari-
Gus Presidents from Washington to
Cleveland. An inscription on the
cover of the book is as follows:
Presidents messages from the
executive files of the Senate during
the first century of the existence of
the United States of America. May l.
1885"
This work was compiled under the
direction of the late Anson q. Nc
Cook, who was secretary of the SEN
ate tor many years.
OF course. the files of the Senate
contain all presidential messages that
have been sent in since, but not in
io.nn of ,nose OF our first century.
and are lacking the sentimental IN
terest and value as those in the orig
inal handwriting of our first twenty
two Chief Executives.
President Chester \. Arthur first
used the blank forms in sending NOM
nations to the Senate. The first one
filled out by him contains the name
of Frederick Z. Frelinghuysen of New
Jersey TO be Secretary of State. vice
James G. Blaine, resigned.
The first message Ill ,he McCook
compilation of Senate documents is
one by President Washington, dated
at New York. August 1. 1889. Cen
tlemen of the Senate: The Presi-
dent of the United States will meet
the Senate in the Senate chamber at
half-past eleven o'clock to advise
with them on the terms of the treaty
to be negotiated with the Southern
Indians" Washington's second mes
sage submitted a long list of NOM
nations. including judges, attorneys
and marshalS.
The first messages of John Adams
are all in his own handwriting and
one is especially notable from the
fact that in 1T he nominated his own
son to be minister to Prussia. The
message reads:
Gentlemen of the Senate: I nom-
mate John Quincy Adams of Massa-
chusetts to be minister plenipoten-
tiary from the United States to the
Evening star., 1921-02-27

| king of Prussia. Signed. John Adams,
United States. Goth of May. 1871"
Washington Named to Command Arm
Perhaps the most interesting mes
sage in this collection of Senate
archives is the one sent to the Sen
ate by President Adams July 9. 1898,
and is as follows:
nate George Washington of Mount
Vernon TO be lieutenant general and
commander in chief of the armies
raised in the United States"
President Adams next message to
the Senate was when he nominated
John Marshall. Secretary of State.
to he Chief Justice of the United
States in place of John Jay. who de-
clined the appointment" This mes
sage is recalled now. that Mr.. Hard :
Court justice to be his Secretary of
State. which is the reverse of the
Adam non1ination.
Among the original messages pre-
served in this historic collection is
that of Andrew Jackson. in which he
hands to the Senate his cabinet NOM
nations and adds the following:
Il nominate Roger B. James. Esq.
of Maryland to be Chief Justice of
the Supreme Court of the United
States in place of John Marshall. de-
ceased. and Phillip Barbour. esq. of
-
the same court. in place of Gabriel
Duval. resigned
LincOln's First Message.
President Lincoln's first message
to the Senate nominated w. II. Sew
ard of New York to be Secretary Of
State. dated Washington. March s.,
1861. The other messages of Presi-
dent Lincoln's nominations have been
preserved in their original form.
President Grants first message to
the Senate, dated March 5. 1869. SIM
ply names his cabinet nominees.
President Garfield's first message
nominated James G. Blaine to be Sec
retary of State.
President Cleveland's first message
to the Senate. March 5. 1885. which
closed the record for the first CEN
tury of the existence of the Amer
lean government. nominated Thomas
F. Bayard to be Secretary of State.
One of the most interesting docu-
ments in this valuable collection is
the manuscript of Thomas Jefferson's
speech to the Senate when he called
that body to order as Vice President
at the beginning of the session.
March 4. 1897. 1t is said this manu-
script was found on the Vice Pres!
dents desk after the adjournment Of
the Senate and happened to be pre-
served.
