PARIS, Jan. 1S-Huge, three bodied
birds, soaring in one gigantic 2O-hour
leap across the Atlantic
Carrying passengers, their baggage
and freight, with as great ease, COM
fort and security. as the finest ocean
liner.
Costing only one-third as much as

This is the prospect outlined by one
of the foremost aviation authorities
in the world, Louis Breguet, presi-
dent of the French chamber of in
dustrial aeronautics and himself a
leader in airplane invention.
The huge metal albatross that he
depicts for the future is an inven-
tioH of his own imaginative mind,
but he asserts that it is merely an
idea of what the large airplane man
ufactures and inventors are actually
contemplating. 1t may be years be-
fore this revolution in world touring
will arrive, but Breguet asserts it is
actually within the vision of the far
sighted men of today.
Present Planes "Crude.''
In comparison with the airplane of
the "day after tomorrow, the plane
of, today is a crude, plodding instru-
ment, unsafe, untrustworthy, merely
experimental.
Even the airplane of tomorrow"
according to Breguet's prophesy, will

the propellers would be found back
of the single plane. The lower-class
cabins would be within the forward
part of this plane.
Weight 55 Tons
''The total weight would be about
55 tons, the dead weight Of the ap-
paratus being about 20 tons, the ad-
ditional weight of essential equip
ment and gasoline leaving some IA
tons for the passengers and their
baggage.
1.-The commercial speed of this ma
chine would be about 14O miles an
hour and it's radius of action would
be about $500 miles,"
Thus the dream of some modern
thinkers for a sort of floating island
in the middle of the Atlantic, as a
Erefueling station for future airplane
transports, is surpassed by the non
stop ocean flyer of Louis Breguet.
"If it is difficult to assign a date
for the arrival of the airplane of
tomorrow and of after-tomorrow, or
to indicate the intermediate stages,
it can be affirmed nevertheless that
there is nothing in the conception
of each that is beyond actual human
vision, and nothing in their construc-
ton that can be copsidered as i'm
possible of realization"
That is the parting assurance Of

KIWANIS WILL
OBSERVE nth
ANNIVERSAY

The Douglas Kiwanis club will join
in with the 1850 other clubs of XII
wants International on the North
American continent to observe the
11th anniversary of the organiza-
tion's founding during the recog-
nized anniversary week of January

by Henry A. Wimberley, president of
the local club today.

meeting, are to be featured by all
the clubs throughout the United
States and Canada" said President
Wimberley. with the $4,000 Kiwa-
mans celebrating the 11th anniver-
sary it is hoped that the general
public will become acquainted with
Kiwanis' many achievements, accom-
plishments, and work during the past
10 years.
The first Kiwanis club was organ
lied in Detroit, Michigan, and the
first meeting was held on January
21, 1915. The International organi-
cation therefore recognizes January
21 as the authentic anniversary date.
Kiwanis international has had a
remarkable growth. Its present num-
ber of clubs exceeds 1850 and has a
total membership of more than 95,>
O0O. John H. Moss, of Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, is international president,
being elected at the 9th International
convention in st. Paul, Mimi, last
June. The 1925 convention will be
held in Montreal from June Z to 10.

}. Il. CLARK FOR COMMISSIONER

Mr.. o. T. Clark, Democratic
candidate for commissioner is
one of the county's very best
citizens. His residence is Penn
township. He is a hard work
ing, industrious man; one who
has made a success of whatever
he undertakes. He has served
. as trustee of Penn township,
and is a most efficient official.
There are no strings tied to
him, and he is the sort of man
the county needs to manage it's
affairs.
In all appointive boards or
commissions made up of more
than one member, where the
president or governor, or other
officer has the appointing
power, the law makes lit manda-
tory that that board, or COM
mlttee, for the general good,
be made up of members of the
two leading political parties.
The same thing should be true
in reference to the board of
county commissioners. This is
the arrangement that should
govern them. The best inter-
ests of the county as a whole
demand it. Morgan county
would be better off, and was
better off, when both parties
were represented on the board
of commissioners.
Elect O. T. Clark county COM
missioner. His qualifications
are of the best; his location
ideal.
