Floating Islands

At the same time that aviation enthusiasts have been
concentrating on the improvement Of air conveyances,
others have been concentrating on other aids to the
new industry.
One Of the latest proposals. and 1t is backed by real
money, is to drop q number Of mechanical islands in the
natural barrier by air. i
Contracts for the construction of q seadrome between
New York. and Bermuda have been let and plans are
being made for seven more to provide resting places at
intervals Of 400 miles for transatlantic planes.
The new airdromes. invented by Edward R. Armstrong,
q consultant for tho DUPONT interests, will really be
cities located on the sea.
When they are built and placed we may have the spec
tacle Of . passenger airplane speeding at night above
the Atlantic and swooping downward toward the black
water to alight on the seadrome placed there for that
purpose.
The need for such aids to aircrossings of the ocean is,
perhaps. the chief lesson to be learned from the trans
ocean flights OF recent years. Lindbergh, Byrd, Cham
berlain and others have negotiated the crossing in nom
stop flights but the difficulties which they encountered
have been sufficient to demonstrate that the average
man would not be considered sane to attempt such a
feat. The use Of seadromes. if they prove successful.
will make transatlantic flights not only feasible but an
ordinary matter worthy Of no comment.
A technical description Of these proposed floating
islands, given in an article in The American Architect,
Is interesting.
The seadrome deck Of steel will be 70 feet above the
water, 100 feet long and $40 feet wide. It Is supported
by 81 ~buoyancy tanks located below the water affected
by wave action and connected to the deck by stream
lined iron columns. The 3s-foot deep tanks and the
arrangement Of the supporting columns eliminate any
roll or pitch due to wave action. The seadrome, q model
Of which has been tested in Chesapeake bay. has q
structural weight Of some 1880 tons and . displacement
Of 10000 tons and will cost-for all eight-some 10000,
600 to $40.00o,Ooo.
Amphibian planes travelling night and day with stops
for meals at the hotels or cafes on each floating islsnd
could cross the ocean in about SO hours. II passenger.
desired they could stay all night on one of the islands
while the express service could carry a passenger from
London to New York between S p. m. and 7 q. m, due Il
the difference in time.
Anchorage of the islands will be a big problem. the
American Architect article explains. but the experts be.
lieve it has been solved by an intricate arrangement Of
chains and cables attached to q concrete bowl almost
100 feet in diameter and weighing about $500 tons. Thu
anchor would be sunk more than two miles to the ocean
bottom In some cases.

We Must Keep Faith!

TO small boys and girls Santa Claus is as much a part
Of Christmas as the babe in the manger, the three wise
men, and the angels who sang the first glad carol.
Childish dreams have a habit Of getting broken as the
year goes on. Somebody else gets the new red wagon on
which q little boy had set his heart. The pink beads that
would have made a little girl grow starry-eyed hang
around another's throat.
But children have a secret place in their hearts where
a shining belief lives . the belief that on the night
before Christmas, from some mysterious land, q generous
creature known as Santa Claus will come. bringing the
presents that will make them glad. They can forget
that their coats are shabby, that there are no jam pots
in their cupboards, when they think Of the gala night.
Every year there are many children who waken in the
dawn-light to grope for stocking. Every year there are
many children who bury their heads in the blankets and
cry softly because. somehow, again this time, the dream
IS crushed and the stocking is empty.
II everyone who understands that Santa Claus is mere
ly typical Of that Christmas spirit which shares with
others would accept his part Of the responsibility, there
would be no Christmas morning heartaches. .
There are toys enough in the shops and packed away
in our attics to make every limp black stocking fat
enough to burst. Tears are 50 unnecessary on Christ
mas morning.
When we hear Of a specific story about a child, our
interest is aroused. But when we read that thousands Of
children are needing our help, we grow indifferent. The
number Is too large to be personal, w seem to think.
Yet every one of the thousands is an eager-eyed young
ster whose heart misses a beat when he thinks that 1t Il
almost time for the night Of nights. and whose nose IS
pressed against the ~plate-glass windows of the stores Is
he wonders what he will draw from the pack this year.
To ~disappoint him would be a tragic thing. It would
ruin his trust in the Spirit of Christmas which the
benevolent old man represented. He wouldn't trust life
so far again.
It is to keep a child's heart filled with dreams and his
eyes gay with laughter that we bring tho gifts for his
stocking.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Bright'S Disease

Bright's Disease
Question: E. j. P. asks: rs
Bright's disease fatal. or do people
with it live as long as the average
person."
Answer: Many people who discover
they have Bright's Disease adopt bet
ter habits of living to cur it or, in
any case, often live a good many
years after this disease is discovered.
Incipient Bright's Disease is very diff
ficult to diagnose and almost impcs-
sible for the patient to ever diagnose,
It requires a very complete physical
examination. including an examina-'
ton of the blood pressure, urinalysis,
etc.
Question: H. F. M. asks: What
foods contain lime, and of what use
is lime in the human body?"
Answer: Lime is n of the most
valuable minerals in the body and
goes to make up a large part of the
bony structure. All vegetables con-
tain some lime, the non-starchy vege-
tables being particularly rich in this
element.
Meat PrOteinS
Question: j. H. writes: Some peo-
pie claim that in contrast to vegetable
proteins, meat and flesh proteinS con-
tain uric acid and encourage the
growth of the putrefactive bacteria in
the colon. Please give your view on
the subject"
Answer: The use of a normal
amount of meat does not have a
harmful effect and does not encour-
age excessive putrefaction in the COL
on. Those troubled with constipation
are the most injured by the use of
two much protein. whether it is meat
or vegetable protein. The so-called
uric acid theory has been quite we'll
exploded, and many physicians now
realize that the greatest uric acid
poison comes from the retention Of
the patients own uric acid which is
formed from the burning up of waste
products in the body. Compared to-
this the small amount of uric acid in
the meat is of no consequence.
