Ladies of the Catholic Circle met
at the residence Of Mrs. Rufus Long,
1928 Binney St. Monday night, April
29th
Before luncheon was served, an in
teresting business session was held.
A letter from Reverend E. J. Flana-

home, thanking the members for a
donation Of ten dollars sent the boys
home by the club was read. 1t fol-

Ladies of Catholic Circle
Care Mrs. Fields, President
2807 Writ Street,
Omaha, Nebraska.
My dear Friends:
May l take this opportunity to ex-
press my sincere thanks and appre-
citation for the very kind gift of
$1,000 which you sent to me a few
days ago.
This help e more to my boys
than / can express in words, for if
our Home ever needed the kind as
sistance of friends it needs it now.
We have been receiving boys at the
rate of one a day since the first of the
year so you can readily understand
our great need. Sixteen states have
sent us boys but the majority came
from Nebraska, Iowa, and Kansas.
At present we are filled to capacity
and do not have another bed for a
needy boy. Of purse we would not
turn him away, but 1 can assure you
it would be very difficult to are for
any more at this time.
I am telling you this SO you can I'M
derstand why / say we are so in need,
and appreciate so much your wonder
full help.
Thanking you again, with the pray
er that Gods blessing will be with
you and your loved ones during the
years, | remain
Yours most grateful !,
Rev. E. j. Flanagan

SH0RTRIDCE AIR
CLUB SHOWING
MUCH ACTIVITY
New Model Group First
to Be Sponsored
by City School.

Each Of 30 members Of the newly
organized Shortridge High School
Model Plane Club is now building a
distinct design Of r. o. G. self
rising model
This is reported by Herschel
Knight, Times Squadron comman-
der after his visit TO the clubs last
meeting With such activity. it
should not be long until the club
ranks with veteran groups in model
plane production
II is of particular significance
that such interest is shown by
the high school junior fliers. Times
squadron officers, realizing the value
to air-minded boys of model build
ing have urged grade and hign
schools to adopt and foster Junior
Aviation as an activity
The Shortridge club repreSe ats
the first model building group to be
sponsored here by a public school.
1t is hoped that school officials
eventually Will find a place for
model building among extra cur
ricular activities.
G.. o. Johnson is director. Officers
are Richard Wilson, president; Will

PLANE Talk

PEAKING OF model planes. have
- you heard about the latest stunt
of Fred Smith of Buffalo? His ex-
pertinent has to do with gliders and
an attempt to give them greater alti-
tude so that they can create new
endurance records.
Attached to the latest glider is
the cartridge of a regular sky
rocket Fred lights the rocket, hurls
the glider into the ali and the rocket
takes it on to a higher altitude. The
string or rubber band holding the
rocket to the plane is burned and
the rocket falls off, allowing the
glider to pursue its natural course.
The tail Fred makes of aluminium
so that it can not burn.
Initial tests have been satisfactory,
but Fred is finding it difficult to
buy SkyrocketS at this time Of the
year.

Is it news to YOU that: Be-
cause of the thinner air, A longer
run is required for plane taking
off from fields where attitudes are
very high above sea level. Un-
even absorption and reflection of
the suns heat by the earth are the
cause of bumps in the air Any
plane can be stalled by climbing at
an angle too great for the horse
power Of its motor. Three sep
arate tests for parachutes are re-
quireG by the United States Depart
mont OF Commerce before issuing a
certificate Of approval. Many
engines now submitted to the
United States Department Of Com
morce for approval are designed for
operation at high attitudes.
Student flyers should not practice
forced landings until they have ac-
quired the knack of handling the
plane in gliding turns and in land
ings. Cross wind landings re-
ouire careful use Of controls until
the plane stops rolling. The
tachometer shows the pilot the
exact number of revolutions a min
ute that his engine is making.
Three women pilots have been ap-
pointed as air marking pilots by
the Bureau of Air Commerce, for
the purpose for travelling through
out the United States to assist cities
in arranging for the marking of
roof tops with signs to aid airmen

cash prize for the perfection of a
device which will eliminate the air
hazards of flying in fog.
Regulations for the competition
specify that the solution must be
one which will enable an airplane
pilot, independent of any radio sta
ton on the ground and independent
of any assistance from ground per-
sonnel or equipment, to land his
plane safely through 100 feet of
fog in any part of the world where
in absence Of fog it could ordinarily
be landed with safety.

7 SEE the United States Navy is
planning a mass flight of long
range seaplanes 1000 miles across
the Pacific, from Honolulu to Ma
Mia in 1886 The idea is to test the
mobility of the nations aerial de-
fenses at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.
This venture has been termed the
most severe test possible for the
Navy's new flying fortresses-and
no doubt of it. But probably some
of the glamour will be rubbed off
because of Pan-American Always
operations across the Pacific.
BY that time, if nothing unfore-
seen occurs, hundreds of normal
citizens viii have crossed that vast
ocean, and thousands of pounds Of
mail and express will have been
transported from the United States
to the Orient by air
Moreover, according to present
announcements, the Navy planes
will fly practically the same route
as the Pan-American Clippers
that is, by way of the tiny islands
Of Midway Wake and Guam. And
by 1886, well established air bases
will be in opera ton on each of
these island way spots-bases that
will be completely equipped with
radio directional beams, tranSmitterS
and great quantities of fuel.
Of course, we must remember that
a mass flight of military aircraft is
a somewhat different matter and
there are various angles that will
tend to make it more difficult. The
Navy's new seaplaneS. however. are
equipped with the latest aids to long
distance flying, including voice and
code radio and radio compasSes. l

Kauai Has Strategic Position for

BALSA WOOD GROWS
IN TROPICAL JUNGLES
Lighter Than Cork: Boon to
Model Builders.

Balsa wood Where does it grow?
Junior Aviators probably ask that
question more times than any other,
And why shouldn't they. for balSa
wood is comparatively new. 1t has
only been avaible to model build
ers in recent years, and Immediately
upon its adoption, model records
leaped to previous unattainable
marks.
BalSa wood grows in the tropical
lunCleS of Central America. where
it derives its name from the Span
ish word raft" as logs of this
material are used for that purpose
Physically it is lighter than cork,
and about half as strong as spruce.
The trees have a smooth bark and
grow about as high as our oaks.
Today. with the growth OF the
model plane industry, the wood can
be obtained at almost any large de-
partment store or model supply
shop.

GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP

1t seems inevitable that in periods OF stress,
there should be demand for government ownership
of basic industries.
It is equally inevitable that, once the movement
gets headway the retired industry should be looked
upon acousitively by the government ownership
advocate. In consequence, various public men are,
sincerely or otherwise, pointing out to the public
the alleged benefits that government ownership of
the railroads would bring the nation-and they are
making few converts who lack the means or the
desire to obtain the actual facts.
The American taxpayer ought to know what led
eral ownership of the lines would mean-and why
il is advocated 1t cannot be justified on the score
of improving service, which is frst-class now and
is constantly improving Nor can it be justified on
the grounds of "watered securities" in spite of all
the hue and cry to that effect The Interstate Com
merce Commission, after "a years of fact finding,
estimates the worth of the railroads at S24,OOO,-
900, 900, as against total capitalization of S19,-
900, 100000
If the railroads are taken over by government,
it with benefit no one save the politicians, who will
be given s24 900, 600, 900 industry, employing a
million men, to play with. The railroads represent
tenth of our national productive capital of wealth.
They buy 25 per cent of all coal mined II per cent
of all fabricated steel, II per cent of all manutac-
tured lumber. What prospective haul for the bu-
reaucrat-at the expense of the taxpayer
Federal ownership of the rails would be ma
tional calamity, and it would act to the detrment
of all business If past experience is any arbiter,
it would lower the standards of servce-and either
raise rates or cause vast deficits for the treasury
to pay-Asheville Advocate.
