aviation in the years that have fol-
lowed
1 believe that the conquest of the
air is only in its infancy, and the big
improvement in naval aviation. wit
messed in the review, is but an earnest
in the larger utilization of aircraft
in the future. The biggest advance
in the feet since 1918 has been in
aviation.
The handling Of vessels Of all
classes and the trim appearance of
vessels and personnel gave substan-
tial proof of the high state of eff
cheney of the feet, for which the re-
public is to be congratulated.
1t was a genuine delight, as well
as a source OF pride, to see the
progress made, as it was happiness
to renew association with the men
of the Navy of other years. The re-
view demonstrated that the country
is justified in its faith in the Navy.

Builds Self an Island
and Governs 1t as King

Sandusky, Ohio.-Kafralu, an is
land man-made from a sandbar, is
magic spot of Lake Erie.
The tiny island is in Sandusky
bay, not far from here. and had its
beginnings > years ago when Louis
Wagner. Sandusky harness maker,
had an idea. He was returning
from fishing trip. The boat ran
onto a sand-bar and grounded.
The bar was a mere speck in the
bay, but it was big enough to stop
the boat. Finally the craft was
showed into deep water. But not
before Wagner had an idea. He
drove a stake on the shallow sand
strip. Later. he replaced the stake
with more permanent one on a
special trip into the bay.
Wagner always was envisioning
a summer home on an alluring Lake
Erie island-if he could build" the
island. He abandoned the idea for
several years, then took it up
again, with the help of his family.
He put off for the bar, with his
two boys and some planking. Then
he took more planking across. load
by load. The planks were placed
so that the waves would wash sand
into the enclosure they formed and
keep adding to the deposit. And
so the Wagners began to harness
nature. A basket factory near their
home afforded chips and shavlngs
to help hold the sand accumulation.
The Wagners built home. The
island grew. Twelve cottages were
finally built. Today, Kafralu has
its own harbor and piers for boat
ing. Louis Wagner, as liking" of
the island, owns it and governs" it.

TEMPERANCE TALKS
BY Lucy Smith Guseman
CLAYTON, Delaware

To the readers of these articles
1t may be. only fair to tell you
something of the life of the one
who writes them. was the young
est of a family of eight children,
four boys and four girls. I was
horn in 1864 in a log house up
among the West Virginia Hills, a
house that my father built in 1S49.
That house still stands, almost as
firm as of old, although the par
ents and four boys and two girls
have passed on to the Great Be
yond. My parents were Quakers
and were much opposed to strong
drink. Never to my knowledge
has a drop of liquor entered that
home. / was Is years old before
| ever saw a drop of whiskey and
then I happened to be at a neigh
bor's house where it was doled out
as a medicine. I was early taught
the havoc of strong drink. For
several years I was in the work,
helping make West Virginia dry.
And we did, but somebody voted
it wet. Who was it??
Since coming to Delaware in
1912 my temperance zeal has never
diminished. 1 was discouraged for
awhile but things begin to look
brighter now and 1 am going to
fight the curse that is running our
nation, as long as God gives me
strength. 1t is terrific task but
we temperance people are going to
gird on the armor and keep at it
until we win. There is no reason
to be discouraged. The vets have
already broken every promise
made. The main thing to do is to
rally our forces and elect the right
kind of officials.
But there is another side to the
question, or rather three sides. It
is an intricate piece of business if
YOU once undertake to fathom it.
If it was not for the saloons there
would be no income from them,
and yet if it was not for the sa-
looms there would not be one-half
so many people needing relief. But
if the people did not need relief
what would the sixty or seventy
relief workers with their thousands
of helpers find to do? 1t is too big
a problem for me but l am still go
ing to fight for the boys and girls
of Delaware. They are wonderful
and I canont bear to think Of any
of them being influenced by the
liquor traffic.
In this time of need may God
give US men for leaders with
strong minds and great hearts.
Men whom the spoils of Office can
not buy. Men who possess opinions
and a will to do what is right. Tall
men, sun crowned. who live above
the fog in public duty and private
thinking"

Himself Out of Jail

He painted landscapes and por-

FRANCE HOLDS
RARE RELICS
Collection From Old Ameri-
can Indians Were Taken
Abroad i'm 176S
ARE NOW AT VERSAILLES

Paris.-One of the most valuable
and artistic discoveries made in
years is that of a collection of North
American Indian bison, deer and elk
skins. costumes and paintings, found
in the library at Versailles.
Several months research concern
ing this unique collection has re
vealed that these relics were
brought to France in 17S6 for the
purpose of iRstructing the royal
princes in the geography and art
of the early settlers of the great
continent across the sea.
No Recommendation whatever was
discovered with the collection, so
that the problem of dating and
fathoming the stories and legends
depicted thereon has necessitated
much historical research. The
largest number deal with the
Sioux and Algonquin tribes and the
exhibit, now on view at the Eth
biographical museum at the Troca-
dero. is to become a permanent part
OF the museum.
Increasing in Importance.
The curator. NJ. Georges Henri
Riviere. whose American wife is
here on a trip of several weeks
from her work at the Toledo mu-
scum. says that the discovery of
these North American Indian relics
increase In Importance as the work
of deciphering the hieroglyphics
goes forward.
A collection of Eighteenth cen
tury paintings of the American In
dians also Is shown. One of the
most interesting Of these shows a
game of ball which resembles la
crosse. According to history. this
Is very warlike game, there be-
ing no rules against roughness Of
any sort. The Indians all wore
sort of stIffened tail feather
which was arched 50 that when
they fell, or someone fell on them,
1t acted as a spring and they re-
bounded from the ground. or bounced
the person off Of them and escaped
injury.
Intricate Design.
The women were supposed to
have dreamed most Of the designs
worked out in bison, deer, and elk
skins, and they used quantities Of
percupine quills In ornamentation.
Their clay coloring matters have
lasted with incredible distinction,
the delicate blues. plnks. green's, and
yellows-like pastel chalk-are as
clear today as when applied more
than hundred years ago. Quite
a number Of the objects were gath
cred In 1876 by NJ. Fayolle. French
colonial representative In the Unit
ed States. at the request of Marquis
de Serent, for the children of the
Count d'Artois, the Duke d'Angou-
leme, and the Duke de Berri. The
city of Versailles has consented to
hand over the entire collection to
the Trocadero in exchange for GER
tain historic objects to be trans
ferred to Versailles.

by Aluminium Reaectors

Pasadena, Calif.-OpeniDg up new
worlds, astronomers at Lick OBJ
servatory have found that the use
of aluminium instead of silver in
the mirror of an astronomical tel
escope increases the Instruments

After photographing a star in the
North polar region with telescope
whose mirror was coated with sill
yer, the astronomers sent the mir
ror to the California Institute of

piled. The star was rephotographed,
