Word comes from Turkey to the ef- feet that the Moslem government will soon cause a law to be passed limiting male citizens to one wife each. The Turk, damned from one end of Christ endom to the other, appears to be talk 5ng a step upward. and for the better. in this country some of our gay birds with money are breaking into the lime flight with so many wives it is difficult to understand how they keep track of them without having them catalogued asand tagged.

OF COURSE IT PAYS

| If you tell some people that it pays to trade at home they will question the accuracy of your statement or merely content themselves with care less perhaps.
 For their benefit here is one of the why's.
 Tn modern days the prosperity of a community depends upon the amount of money in circulation in that con- mrnity.
 If man goes to a nearby city to buy suit of clothes the money he pays for the suit is ALL taken out of the town. It is gone. and the town doesn't see it again. But if he buys the suit from home dealer the wholesale cost only goes out of town. The merchants profit and overhead expense remains in the home town.
 Figured on the basis of a single suit U amounts to nothing of importance. but if multiplied into hundreds and thou sands of suits. and other articles of wearing apparel, and shoes, and hard ware, and millinery, and farm imple- ments, and building supplies. and printing. and all the other articles that enter into our daily life, it can readily be seen that the two items of overhead expense and profits, if all kept at home by the patronizing of home dealers, would mean an enor- nous amount of money kept in circu- lation right here in our own commun- ity.
 And you would get part of that money.
 It's worth thinking over, because it pays to trade at home.

PARIS. Aug. 17.-Conquest OF the
North Polar regions by airplane, re
Gently given up by the explores
Amundsen, will be attempted nex'
April by a French military aviator
Lieutenant Jules de Payer.
Taking off from Spitzbergen, DE-
Payer plans to fly directly to the
Pole, a distance Of only $50 miles
Contrary to Amundsen's project
however, he won't continue across
the top Of the earth, but will return
again to Spitzbergen.
The entire distance. as figured by
De Payer, will be not more than
miles for possible deviation from the
straight route.
why can't it be done?" queried
De Payer, in explaining his ideas
when every day we overcome hith
erto insurmountable obstacles?
Didn't Alcock and Brown cross the
Atlantic in one leap Of 1900 miles
in 1919? My task will be simpler
because I will have a stopoVer. Be
sides, aviation has made enormous
progress since the feat Of Alcock and
Brown"
Amundsen Too Bold.
Amundsen's ideas were too ambt
tious, De Payer believes.
ut would be foolish to try to fly
from Barrow Point to SpitZbergen
across the entire Polar region. q
distance Of more than 3,1O0 miles,
he commented. I'VE may be able tc
do it some time, but as starter 1t ID
too much. My project Is much
easier"
Two planes and six men will MAKE
up Lieutenant De Payers expedi
ton. Preparations already are being
made at Spitzbergen to receive the
planes and other supplies.
Both planes will hop off together
Both will be equipped with powerful
wireless apparatus. In case Of acct
dent to one plane the other will re
| turn to the nearest base of supplies
for repair parts. If the DAMAGE
plane cannot be repaired the entire
expedition will be transferred to thu
one good plane and the flight con
| tinued.
The possibility Of both planes being
| disabled has not been envisaged.
Fatal Balloon Trip.
Lieutenant De Payers hopping-of
point, Virgin Bay, on Danish Island
of the Spitzbergen group, was als'
the starting point Of an unsuccessful
balloon expedition to the North Pole
made in 1897 by the Swedish cx
plorer, Salamon Andree. The balloon
| list has never been heard from.
De Payer is not unfamiliar witt
Arctic exploration. He did consider
able exploring there during 1913 ant
1914. His father was also an Arctic
explorer and, with the Austrian
Weyprecht. discovered the Francis
Joseph Archipelago in 1872.
If his Polar flight Is successful
Lieutenant De Payer later will make
sentimental air voyage to this
group of islands, which he wal
planning to visit in 1914 when ht
was called back to France by the
outbreak Of the war.
