The FLYERS in Germany

Captain Herman Koehl and Baron Won Huenefeld
got chilly reception the other day when they visited
Vienna.
It seems that shortly before going to Vienna the
two ocean flyers went to Doom and paid visit to the
former German kaiser, Wilhelm. And Vienna is COM
pletely and everlastngly soured Wilhelm. So this
visit made lot of the Vennese sour on Koehl and
Won Huenefeld, also.
That's rather unfortunate from the flyers stand
point But it's interesting, in that it shows just how
the time "all highest" is regarded in the former
capital Of the dual monarchy which he led into war

Vessels Defeat Elements

Admiral Bristol's flagship, the
Pittsburgh, barely escaped water
spout in the mouth Of the Yangtse
last Saturday.
The whirling column, we are in
formed, was fifty yards in diameter
at the base, but expanded to three
times that size before it reached the
clouds.
Travelling directly toward the
Pittsburgh, it caught a Japanese
cargo ship. which it spun around
like a paper boat and dismasted.
The Pittsburgh avoided it by
altering its course, something old
sailing ships could not always do.
The water spout is one phenom-
enon that no longer holds the terror
it once did.

Put Good Meals First

What makes a summer resort attractive? When
you go over the vacation folders trying to pick one out
what are the deciding factors?
The American Summer Resort magazine recently
decided to find out 1t sent QUESTIONABLE to hun
dreds of resort owners and operators asking them to
say what their experience had shown them to be the
most important features of their establishments.
The answers are interesting. The item OF good
meals led all the rest Next in order came natural
surroundings followed by cleanliness Trailing were
miscellaneous amusements, golf courses, fishing and
transportation facilities. Last of all came luxurious
furnishings.
That's interesting, especially the part about meals.
A vacation isn't vacation if the vacatonist doesn't
feel that his stomach is being treated in the style to
which it is accusomed.

SAYS

TALK of Aaron Saenz as provi-
Il sional President throws a new
light on Mexican progress. He rep
resents a different kind of leader
ship than we are accustomed to
think of in connection with the
revolutionary movement.
Aaron Saenz is one man who did
not come up through the army, or
earn his popularity on the battle
field. His background training and
family could be described as con-
sentative. He was brought up as a
Presbyterian, educated as a lawyer
and had made more than a local
reputation for himself entering
politics.
His brother, Moses, holds a pro-
fessorship in the University Of Mex
leo and has written books in Ger
man and English, as well as in
Spanish.

World NeighborS

Whether from Mexico, England,
China or Cuba, we have not only
learned to get the news quickly, but
to read it with a fair degree OF SYM
pathy and intelligence.
That is one reason why John
Henry Mears and c. B. D. Collyer
were able to circle the world in less
than twenty-four days.
Without denying them the credit
which they deserve, it is only fair
to say that this feat was made pos
sible by those inventions, changes
and customs which have taught
widely separated peoples to accom-
modate themselves to the common
ways of civilization.
If these boys had not received
quick and intelligent cooperation all
along IL e line, they could never
have made the record they did.
Humanity has learned something
besides how to step on the gas
since Drake sailed round the world.
If Drake had dropped down in
anyone of half dozen places where
Collyer and Mears landed, the
chances are that he never would
have lived to tell the tale.
AS a matter of record, it was to
get away from the Spaniards whom
he had plundered that inspired him
to keep going westward. With a
ship full of stolen goods he decided
that it was safer to cross the Pacific
and take chance of reaching Eng
land that way than it was to go
back around the Horn and run the
risk of falling afoul the Spanish
fleet which had been modified to
capture him.

of Eden
We know that the constellation was known to the
Chaldeans in the earliest days of their history 1t is
probable that at that time the dragon was imagined
to have wings and that the stars which later were
formed into the Great and Little Bears, formed the
dragons wings.
Many Biblical students think that Draco is referred
to in the Book of Job, when it says:
"By his spirit He hath garnished the heavens;
Ills hand hath formed the crooked serpent"
There are number of legends connected with this
constellation III Greek mythology.
According to one, the gods had to battle with a
group Of great giants for the control of the earth The
giants were aided by great serpent.
But the goddess Minerva snatched up the serpent
before it had time to unco and join the battle, and
threw it into the sky There it is, still coiled up,
forming the constellation Draco.
According to another legend, Draco represents the
dragon killed by Hercules. Hercules the son of
the god Jupiter and the princess Alcmene.
Juno the wife of Jupiter, naturally hated Hercules
and drove him insane. In his madness, he killed his
own children.
The goddess Minerva restored his senses. but Juno
decreed that he must carry out many tasks to atone
for Staying his children Of course she hoped that
he would be killed.
But he performed them successfully. They are
known in mythology the labors of Hercules. Among
them was the Staying OF the dragon who guarded the
golden apples Of Hesperides.

Editor Times-In reply to Police
man E. Stoddard's article in the
Voice Views, he certainly hit the
nail on the head in regard to the
judges. The police are ordered to
go out and clean up our city Of
crime, gambling and all such things
that make it unsafe for the people
of Indianapolis to live in safety and
peace.
Tell me how on earth can the po-
lice do it alone, wnen the police
men, one after the other, bring
prisoners before the judges to be
tried and convicted, but finally the
judge finds way to release them,
or gives them small fines with days
suspended. to go out and do the
same thing over again.
It makes the policemen feel,
whats the use?" The police will
DO their part if the court and
judges will do theirs. I make a mo-
ton that larger fines and more days
would help the police clean up In
dianapolis and make it safer for
all and protect the police also.

Bridge Play
Made Easy
BY W. W. WENTWORTH

(Ab6reyiatiOns: A--ace; K-king; O.
than 1O)
IN the manipulation of the cards,
L the finesse is one of the most
useful working tools" II is a
maneuver which assists in winning
a trick for you with a card lower
than one which is still out against
you.
1t also helps to establish a suit,
that is, to give you complete control
of it so that you may win trick
with every card in that suit.
An illustration of the f1nesse in a
situation frequently encountered may
be described as follows:
West holds the king and four Of
hearts; dummy, the ace, queen;
East holds none and the Declarer
holds the two and three of hearts.
The only way in which the De-
clarer can win two tricks in hearts
is to lead a small card from his
hand to the ace-queen.
If West holds the king, both the
ace and queen will win tricks. If
West plays the four, the DeclareI
plays the queen; if West plays the
king, the Declarer covers with the
ace in the dummy and the queen is
then sure to win trick.
If East holds the king, the de-
clarer will lose the queen and the
finesSe will fail. This, however,
does not lessen the value of the
maneuver.
There is a chance of making a
trick with the queen and he takes
that chance! Should he play from
the dummy, he would be sure to lose
a trick regardless of whether East
or West held the king.
This finesse gives the Declarer his
only chance Of winning two tricks
in the suit.

HERE is the Administrations
n Il logic, as voiced by Hale
"The argument is often made that
if we do not build ships other coun-
tries will not. The reverse has
proved to be the case. While We
practically have stood still, the other
naval stations have all gone ahead
with big programs of modern con-
struction.
I'm my opinion, in no other way
than by showing the other nations
in no uncertain way that we will
not allow them to outbuild us can
we force them to give up their race
for competitive armament.
eve have proved once in the
Washington conference that we can
force a cutting down OF armament
if we have a force that they cannot
hope to equal. We can do it again
if we will show definitely that how
ever much they may build we do
not intend TO allow ourselves to be
outdiStanced. But by shilly-shalling
along and letting our navy drop be-
hind we cease to be a factor in the
situation"
After reference to the failure Of
the Coolidge naval conference at
Geneva, in which the United States
tried unsuccessfully to get Great
Britain to grant equality between
the two nations in cruiser and
auxiliary strength, Hale says:
by every precept in history We
could arrogate to ourselves the right
to the control of the seas for the
protection of our vast possessions
and our expanding commerce. But
we do not see fit to do so.
"All that we desire is navy equal
to that Of any other cower in the
world, that will give security to our
country and protection to our citi-
zens and our interests at home and
abroad"
The United States navy general
board has informed the President
that our minimum cruiser re-
uuirement is forty-three, fleet twen-
ty-six, destroyer fiagships two, focal
points nine, convoy six. But the pro-
posed fifteen new ships would bring
our total of modern" cruiser up to
only thirty-three.
