A MARVEL OF THE AGE

The great stamina of machinery and
the degree of perfection which mod
ern science has achieved has been
demonstrated during the past few
weeks in the performance Of two re-
fueling endurance flights by the Hun
ter brothers of Chicago, and Jackson
and O'Brine of ST. Louis. A few
weeks ago the Hunter brothers es-
tabished a new endurance record of
554 hours of sustained flying in the
air which was destined to stand up
but a short time under the onslaught
of the latter two named whose pre-
vious record the Hunter brothers
broke.
1t is almost miraculous to think
that a motor can be kept going stead
lily for almost four weeks without
rest with the steady fire and tremen-
dous heat in the cylinders. One would
think no metal could stand up. but
modern science has perfecter ma
chimes that will endure much hard
ship and abuse. and in many instances
endure them almost as intelligently
and gracefully as humans.

EXERCISE FOR ALL

According to reports minor League
baseball is rot the attraction that it
used to be to the fans. The New Eng
land league is passing out of existence
and the Eastern League is not faring
any too good. The American aSsocla-
ton, however, seems to be drawing
fair crowds, and of course the major
leagues are both drawing large
crowds. Babe Ruth, the bambino, is
still entertaining with his home runs
as are several others who are crowd
ing him for circuit hitting honors.
1t seems that many more people are
playing golf than ever before. This
may not be so good for organized base
ball. but it would seem to be better
for people to take their exercise them
selves rather than to pay athletes TO
take il for them. The more that can
take part in a sport the better 1t Is.
