Mrs. Orlando S. H a r tm a n of M a r shalltown, Iowa, recently visited her sister, Mrs. C. S. H a rroun, a t Schuy lerville. This was the fifst time in fifty-one years that the sisters had seen each other. At a benefit bazaar held a t Luzerne Monday night for the Church of the Infant Jesus, an autographed photo of Governor A lfred E . Sm ith was sold at auction for §725. The purchaser was a N e w York man. A wedding w ithout a minister, in the old Quaker custom, was solem nized last week Wednesday at San ford's Ridge, near Glens Falls.

Archibald, cashicr o f the F irst National bank of Lake George, received notice' last week fro m the Federal Reserve bank stating th a t they had credited $8,300.00 to the ac count of the F irst National bank of Lake George to cover the loss in the recent robbery. The Federal Reserve bank has collected this amount from the various insurance companies w ith which they are insured. The money was taken from Cashier Archibald a few weeks ago by two men who held him up with pistols as he was on his way to the postofflce to m a il out a package of bills. - - - * — i * -H— - * — - * i M e m o r y “'I ana certain tliat ih the academic worl«l we always liave put too ipuch stress upon memory and not enough upon reasoning-,” I>r, Herbert S. Lang- feld of H a rvard snid recently. “M-emcry is the storehouse of Infor mation and one of the best assets tof the high-powered brain. But memory under another guise is harmful. There Js th e student, for Instance, who eas ily memorizes lefesons, using his mind as a kind o f photographic plate, with out any real mental activity. “(iCemorles o f that sort often are the Most fertile for the \time being; they will easily absorb and supply on demand almost any information re quired. But the mind as a whole does not get th® Instruction required, and this Information later on slips from the photographic memory plate with out any special benefit to the student, no uaatter how high he may have stoocl in classes.\— INew York Timas.

In a tt^t ‘ run. with the propellers made of wn,.r). which had been dried to the ion cst I possible moisture content, or “bone ! dry,” the ends of the blades actually ' exuded sap, forced out by the centnfu- 1 gal action. Some air machine engines run at , 1,700 revolatlons a minute. An cn- < gine of that power should tise a nine- ; foot six-inch propeller, and the spped ! of the blade ends would be in the 1 neighborhood oi six hundred miles an j hour. A good many thousands o j pounds I of pressure per square Inch are epu - | erated by such speed, an<l propellers have been known to spilt at the cen ter and fly apart. Even the smallest lack of balance between the two blades ia a very serious matter, since the pull of one must counterbalance that of the other. In addition, there ls the gyroscope force that tends to keep the blades rotating ln the same plane, a force that Is not easily over come when the airplane Is moving at high speed. The cross-train that If introduces wheriT there is a change of direction, either np or down or side- wise, is enormous. Yet ia conditions of modern warfare, where the aviator must “loop the l^op,\ or plunge, jr ascend sharply in maneuver, tbe ma chine must meet and withstand these severe testa. Wood for airplane manufacture must be 100 per cent. The safety of the aviator depends upon there not helng a single flaw. y l l o o n T i r e s Standard Equipment G a s P ip e d L o n g D istance Twenty-five years ago tne city of Toledo, 0., obtained its natural ejs from points within a radius of about thirty-five miles, ifovi, the nearby welfs having become exhnnated, the supply Is piped from West Virginia, a distance of 700 milea. The outstanding buying choice thii year is “Closed Car Comforts at Open Car Cost.’ ’ The Coacti alone provides them. It is exclusive to Hudson and Essex. Everyone knows it gives highest closed car value. And because no other type or car sliares its position it is the largest selling 6-cylinder closed car ir] the world. Genuine Balloon Tires Enhance W o rld’s GreatestValue Naturally when balloon tires hadettabli*hedtl»«i rsuperior- ity Hu dson and Essex would adopt them. Thsy are now itandard equipment. They add an even greater measure of riding ease, steadiness and good looks to tlie notable values of the Coach. ln workmanship, materials and design both H udson and Essex *re;.of one quality— built Ln the samt factories, under the tame patent*. Your choice between them will rest solely on the price you want to pay. You see the Coach every where m increasing num bers Everyone wants closed car comforts They will no longer accept half-utility when all-year usefulness and comforts cost no more in the Coach. Consider how the growing trend to closed cars affects resale values. The dimin ishine demand for open cars means far faster depreciation in that type. As the wanted type, the Coach mainttinsex- ceptionally high resale value.
