each year. There are more
large buildings bling built
and higher ones, too, each
year. Think - the people
who own the property where
these buildings are built are
going to make a big profit
on their investment in years
to come. because they will
grow with San Antonio.
You, too, have the same
opportunity as they have.
All San Antonio is growing.
You dom { necessarily have
to invest in downtown prop
erty; suburban property will
enhance in value, too. But
do grow with San An

Flies 8-Cylinder
Airplane With
T1UO Eliminated

Lieut.. Robertson of the 6th Pur-
suit Squadron, Luke Field, Ha-
wall, claims the greatest dis
tinction ever attained in aero
nautics" when he proved to his
colleagues that anybody can con-
vert a Wright eight-cylinder- en-
gine into a six-cylinder motor in
midair.
In explaining his new discov-
cry to the Army Air Service in a
letter received today, Lieut.. Rob-
erson said he went out on an
Aloah mission recently flying a
Thomas Morse pursuit plane with
an HIS eight-cylinder Wright mo-
tor and returned to the field minus
two connecting rods, two pistons
and an empty oil tank.
THE only difference noticeable
between the two motors" states
the lieutenant. "is a slight vibra-
tion resembling a Japanese earth
quake" After having tried out
the six-cylinder engine, Lieut..
Robertson said he preferred the
eight-cylinder type.

A SCENE WE HOPE
WON'T BE REPEATED

A few nights ago a young
man under the influence of IL
quor spent an hour or so on
our streets engaged in the pur-
suit of painting the town red,' -
as it was said in pre-Volstead
days. He was not molested
by our city marshal, although
present, and it is said profan-
ity was flowing freely as ladies
and gentleman passed down
Franklin, our principal busi-
ness street. Among these was
a party of young boys and
girls returning home from a
Sunday School class entertai,.
ment.
The offender it is tric was
hailed into mayors court the
following morning and a fine
assessed, but many good citi-
zens who know that there are
provisions in our laws to pro-
tect their wives and daughters
from the embarrassment of
having to listen to profanity as
they walk down our streets, arc
wanting to know why such "a
thing would be permitted.
This criticism is not made
with a view to embarrassing
anyone, but from a sense of
a duty the newspapc, owes its
good citizens who want their
town free from such happen
ings.
