The Union Revival

People in Union say that the Rev
cccnd Gypsy" Smith is conducting
a wonderful revival in that town, and
that much good is being accomplished.
Our informant says that the evangel-
ist has been training his heavy artil-
lery upon the church membership
socalled Christians Of the community
and that, as a consequence, many Of
them have lost their tempers but in
the meantime the interest continues
to grow and that the disgruntled ones
are failing to get the support to which
they think they are entitled.
We have never met the evangelist,
but those who know him well say
that he is a great preacher, and we
have always thought that if the
churches should be purged of it's un-
worthy members, they would be in
better position to bring souls to
Christ. for the reason that those who
are unsaved often hesitate to connect
themselves with organizations which,
contain people who are notoriously
and openly wicked.-Cherokee Times

PMOTLESS PLANES
MAKING FLIGHTS

Washington, Nov. 14.--The pilot.
less army biplane, equipped NTH an
automatic control device, said to be
more accurate and dependable than
any human pilot, has been developed
TO point where It made sn$cesaful
flights Of more than 80 miles, It wts
announced today by the army air
service.
, The announcement declared the re-
suits produced after. long series of
experiments constituted the "most
important postwar development Of
the many. novel ideas of new engines
OF war;" 1t added that the expert
'n.ent had shown it to be possible to
shoot" bomb ladened planes. with
out pilots, at targets on or of the
ground with astounding accuracy.
"In actual work with these auto.
matte pilots" the announcement said,
hundreds Of automatic takeoffs and
a number of automatic fights of 80
miles and more have been made" /"
This pilot" is capable of being
mounted on any type airplane and in
bumpy weather will hold a plane
much steadier than human pilot
and will carry it on an absolutely
true course regardless of fog or ad!
verse weather conditions.
In the long series Of tests just con-
cluded, the machine used was one Of
the small type having a span Of only
20 feet, 60 horse power motor, cap
able of carrying n load Of 250 pounds,
equipped with an automatic pilot
which takes it off the ground, levels
off at predetermined height and will
rise to unusual heights. Except for
natural deviations of fight, due to
unfavorable air currents, the control
machinery holds fast to its course for
the limit of its gas supply, which In
the equipment of the experimental
aircraft, makes possible sustained
flight of two and half hours.
Air service officers characterized
the invention as "the dream of engi.
neers and inventors the world over
ever since the solution Of heavier
than, air flight, which has been posi-
lively accomplished in this country
1t was. said the invention would
lead to- hew methods of bombing, one
