 5 Miles Apart, Talk

Dayton.-Today, for the first time in history, according to army aviation of dcers here, two men several thousand feet in the air and more than five miles apart held conversation.
 This remarkable feat was accom- plished at Wilbur Wright Field by Ma jor Fl. J. Knerr and Lieutenant NJ. N. Stewart during test of new radio equipment.
 A test of the new radio equipment included the flight of two ships equipped with broadcasting and re- ceiving instruments. The men con- versed with each other with perfect ease, Major Knerr said, while whizzing tn rough air at the rate of 20 miles an hour, going in different directions.
 By a second arrangement, their con yersation was heard on receiving sets at Wright Field.
 The tests were made preparatory to equipping number Of planes with the radio devices. It is said the equipment is still in the experimental stage.

 "2. Both the will and the capacity to think, and a strong and continuing desire to learn. I have never seen 8 really successful man who thought he knew 1t all
 B. An entire absence of envy. They will admire and commend a competi- tors program, and then see what they can laarn from him. Never will they let another man's success make them sulky.
 II. They are always seeking now to get things done in the best and easiest way, and trying to make it easier for everybody to get things done. The successful man rarely gives orders, al- ways does his own share, and not only expects others to do their share, but helps them to do it by tacit asshmp- tion that undoubtedly they can and will do thelr part.
 "5. A full appreciation of the fact that the world is made up of human beings who wonld rather work pleas antlY than loaf. but who also want 8 decent share in the good things of life.
 "6. An absence of the quality that we call greed. 1 have never known a really successful man whose chief con- cern was the money he could make.s
 "On the other hand, among unsuc- cessful or mediocre men, l have noticed that the controlling forces seem to be:
 II. Envy. The cranky grouch who is always complaining about what the other fellow has, never, under any cir cumstances, gets nywhere-and there is ho earthly reason why he should.
 "2. A passion for monay. The man who looks first to what he is going to get out of thing is worth nothing to himself or to anyone else.
 B. An excessive egotism. This is not to be confused with self confidence. but comes from closing of the mind, d resentment of criticism, an unwilling ness to think and to work, anu great willingness to give & profusion of or ders to others as to how they should do their work. The conceited man rarely does his own work well, and, in addl- tion, will butt in on the work of others and prevent them from doing their work we'll. In the worst cases. the man imagines that he knows everything, and that no one else knows anything. Consequently, no one can work with him.

rare comedic gifts of Miss Da-

charming, unforgettable man

The combination Of beauty and
the gift of comedy is rare, be-
cause one is usually sacrificed

that her public loves so well.

The period of the picture is that
brave time when every sensible
householder knew that electric
lights were either a vain and
fleeing dream or an invention Of
the devil; when Tony Pastor, the
father of vaudeville, smiled at the
tryout of two bright little boys
named Joe Weber and Lew Fields,
and when little, spectacled Theo-
dore Roosevelt brought to his
father report cards that showed
