SLEEP AS FATAL AS
DEATH, SOMETIMES

Mr.. Bryan further proclaims the
Democratic party mot dead, but
sleeping" One is nearly as fatal
as the other, when it comes to los
ing battles.
Napoleon lost Waterloo for lack of
4 nights sleep. Hughes lost Cali
fornia, and thereby the presidency,
and probably changed the history of
the world, by not being awake one
day to situation which he wildly
realized the next.
The Democratic party, by Bryan's
acknowledgements, at least needs to
wake up. And then, awake, it needs
to decide which way to go-and go
it. When it faced two ways last
year, it went neither.

"CRASHLESS" AIRPLANE

One more invention, to get us

spin down, motor stopped and con-
trolls helpless, it automatically flat
tens out it's course, and lands, per-
haps not gently, but less than fatal
ly. By the time airplanes are as
common as automobilet we shall
probably be safer in the air. than
