WHY LINDBERGH'S PLANE
WON WHERE PN-9 FAILED

Mr. R. H. Richards in discussing
the sensational flight Of Iindbergh
which evoked the admiration OF the
entire civilized world told some of
the points of advantage which Lind
hergh's plane possessed over other
types now in use and which I'M
doubtedly contributed to his re-
markable success.
Lindbergh chose the Wright
Whirlwind motor which is an air
cooled motor, while the p \ is
water cooled The postal and naval
authorities Of the United States as
sert that so per cent of the forced
landings Of airplanes are due to
cooling troubles OF water cooled
planes so the reason for Lindbergh's
choice is at once apparent. The rea-
sons for the reliability OF the air
cooled motor for plane use is seen
when 1t is noted that the propeller
which acts as fan to the motor is
keyed directly to the crank shaft
eliminating at once all independent
ly moving parts with their friction
bearings to get out of adjustment or
seize under severe stress, also rub
Der hose connections. pump pack
ings and water and delicate joints
with their possibility OF springing
leaks. Fans must operate so long as
crankshaft turns. Adverting again to
government statistics the odds are
largely in favor of the crankshaft
turning so long as the fan and con-
sequently the cooling system oper-
ates. Furthermore, due to the higher
efficiency of the air cooled motor
with its hotter explosion point and
more complete combustion Lind
bergh carried smaller load OF fuel
and averaged a greater speed.
The P N Q Of the west coast
Hawaiian flight carried a great load
of gasoline for its water cooled en-
CINE and did it by speeding up its
motor to 2,400 revolutions per min
ute to get the required thrust. AL
thought its motor continued to run
as long as the fuel held out, the re-
serve supply was not great enough
to meet the actual conditions OF the
flight and it was forced down sew
eral hundred miles before the goal
was reached.-advt.

Finds Lindy's Kiss
Far From AffectiOnate

Paris, May 2S.-R-Among his
many new experiences, Aviator
Lindbergh is learning much about
the kiss Often this week he was en-
braced by bearded gentlemen and
kissed. French fashion, on both
cheeks; yesterday he got some
training in what is expected Of .
public hero In this respect.
At the Citroen automobile factor,
a group OF girls appeared and one
OF them presented him with the ira
ditiona1 bunch OF red roses as 4 sign
Of affection. He took the flowers

but the French maiden, well versed
in ceremonial tactics, waited for
something else. His face growing

and barely brushed his lips on her
cheek. He shook hands with the

Engineers have toiled to protect the great Mis-

The fact that forty per cent of the countrys total

Mississippi complexities the problem; battles the
engineers and scientists.

to impound fancied rainfall of next would be
sheer folly. 1t is hard to control waters the

situation entirely.
Nor will rcforestaton stop the impact Of

Several rusty blackbirds were. seen
by the writer on April Is. He Saw
also on April Is a brown creeper.
The Brown Creepers
The brown creepers are birds quite
easily recognized by their habits.
The name fits them very we'll. They
are small brownish birds with .
regular habit Of beginning near the
loot OF tree and working up the
trunk IN spiral manner, then fly
Ing to the base Of another tree.
Ihey nest in the woods from the
northern states northward and move
down through the central states and
southern states in winter. They re-
main with US until we'll into winter
ana spend a considerable time here
again in late April and early May.
Inc creepers, like the woodpeckers,
nave stiff, pointed tail feathers
wnicn help to support the birds
whue they search the tree trunks
Tor insects hidden away in the cracks
OF the bark: The scientists place them
IN small family near the wrens and
the !ehickadccs. In eastern America
occurs the brown creepcr with which
We are familiar. In the western

only slightly different. In Europe
there are still other forms Of the
same bird and very few other
species. Crecpcrs in general are
therefore common birds of the trees

In Europe and Asia there is q wall

In South America are some birds

80 executives.
Those executives are now millionaircs.
Furthermore, it is announced that this plan will

Which scheme is right? Which is more
likely to become the standard for large American
industries?
