aimed a certain poise that is astound-

tanned certain poise that is astound-
ing.
"Answerest thou nothing?" thunder
ed the High Priest. "What is it
which these witness against thee?"
He held His peace and answered
nothing, declares the Gospel record.
The secret of that marvellous poise
was His decision which He made in
the Garden of Gethsemane. 1t was
there, when He sincerely prayed, "Not
my will but thine be done" that Jesus
gained the victory that carried Him
through.
By an utter unreserved yielding of
ones whole will to the will of God
there is enlisted in ones behalf Gods
special care and provision. God will
see to it that you come out victorious.
Jesus Christ could stand quietly be-
fore His false accusers because He
was poised in God.
Although a storm may be whirling
about them, yielded men can quietly
stand with a poise like that Of the
Rock of Gibraltar!

AUBURN AUTO co. CON-
GENERATES in INDIANA

Roy H. Faulkner, President of the
Auburn Automobile Company. issued
the following announcement today:
During the last five months the
Auburn Automobile Company has
concentrated all of it's manufacturing
activities at Connersville, Indiana,
where we have thoroughly modern au-
tomobile and body plants with ca
pacity of 800 cars per day. At the
present time we are producing front
drive Cords only. A new rear drive
Auburn car is in development, which
we expect to offer to the market in
the spring of 1887 in lower price
bracket than the Cord.
"With the trend toward higher
standard of living in America very
pronounced we feel that Auburn's
place in the industry is to devote it's
facilities and experiences exclusively
to the creation of speciality merchan-
disc. The Cord is the forerunner of
our program and it is our intention to
present in the New Auburn, individual
ity in styling and performance to
make it stand apart in its price field
in the same manner that the Cord
stands apart in its field"

VARIOUS VIEWS
By Arthur Van Define
FLYING IN 1860

In the year 1860, how many people
thought then that we would be flying
across the ocean and above the clouds
in the year 1886? Not many! Their
common expression in that day
when something seemed to be absolute
ly impossible-was, cts just as i'm
possible as flying"
Flying is not impossible any more;
though it is not yet completely safe,
but we are looking forward to the
day in the near future when flying
from the city office to the country
home will be as safe and as quickly
accomplished, as it is now for one to
walk a city block.
In the year 1860, however, not ev-
cry person believed flying to be en-

tirely an impossibility. There was a
boy then at the age of nine who
thought he would try flying, and SO
he went to his mothers basket and
took eight goose wings that had been
fell flattened; got some string, and
colored boy; then started off for
the back field.
When they had reached the chosen
flying field; the white boy gave the
Negro lad instructions. They would
fly from the log fence to a large tree
about a hundred yards away. If the
flight proved successful, they would
fly from there to town, which was sew
eral miles away.
Soon they had wing tied to each
foot and holding one in each hand they
climbed to the top of the fence. The
white boy began, Zone for the money,
two for the show, three to make
ready, and four for to CO." When the
last word had been spoken they spread
the wings in air and took-off by jump
ing as far as they could. 1t is need
less to say; they did not reach the tree
for they soon landed in thick mass
of briars several feet from the base OF
the fence, where their bare feet anC
legs we're scratched and pierced by the
thorny briars.
Flying today has become a more
simplified matter, but landing is still
a little dangerous.
