Blessed is the man that maketh the Lord his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies.—Psalms 40:4. New Flying Thrills Ahead THE Germans seem to have started something with their air gliding contests, in which one flier remained in the air three hours in an airplane without a motor. A gliding craze now is sweeping England, progressive London papers offering big prizes. And it’s a safe bet that the gliding craze will invade America and furnish thrills for the cautious who prefer to stay on the ground and “let George do it” in the air. It will probably not be long before we see daring young Hoosiers providing an entirely new sensation by hopp l ng off the highest skyscrapers in Indianapolis. A glider is a machine that travels on “air waves” about the same as a sailboat travels on water. It has a rudder for steering, also “control surfaces” which the pilot tilts to make craft rise or descend and to balance the glider if it gets lopsided and starts to tilt. - First you have to master “aerial balance,” same as you learn to balance on a bicycle. All depends on the pilot ’s skill. He has to learn to use his artificial wings as a young bird learns to fly. You sit in the car, preferably on a hillside. Helpers grasp a long rope, attached to the glider, and run with it until the wind catches under the wings and you “take off” like a kite. Then you fall. A motorless glider, of the type used by Herr Hentzen, German gliding champion, moves forward sixteen feet for each foot it descends after taking off from a hillside, provided there are no upgusts of wind to help move the craft upward and forward. The Germans started their gliding by long and patient watching of hawks, gulls aud swallows in flight. Air experts and mathematicians thus figured out the curves and tricks used by soaring birds. Chief obstacle to gliding by man is that the pilot is apt at any second to strike anew air current or hole. German observers discovered that birds “instinctively scent” new air currents with their heads. So the Germans are trying to develop a similar “air sense.” They are helped by a secret chemical skin-coating which makes their faces sensitive to the least touch of wind. As you probably suspect, the German general staff began quietly to investigate gliding as far back as 1915. This was learned recently by French spies. The peace treaty forbids Germany making high-power airplanes. So she turns to planes without motors. ’Tino: World’s Worst Guesser ’A 5 a & uesser — reverse English—the King of Greece, Constantine—familiarly known as “Tino,” is a world’s champion. He guessed Germany would win the world war and he backed them. He guessed he could bluff himself into possession of Constantinople and he lost. He guessed he could beat the Turks in a war in Asia Minor and his army was totally routed. As things look today Greece has lost about all that Premier Venizelos won for her. With “Tino” an exile, Venizelos was giving an exhibition of a ruler who knew what was what. But the Grecians, at a special election, voted “Tino” back to the throne by a large majority, and Venizelos just naturally ducked away from there. They had their fling of self-determina-tion in the King matter and the world wonders now how they like it. In the message of abdication which he sent to the Greek peo-1 pie yesterday Constantine surmises his fading away would be for the “national interest, peace and unity.” Perhaps “Tino”! is at last learning how to guess right. Water Just Will Seek Its Own Level iSmHERE is not the slightest ground for an appreciable in-{ -L crease in retail prices, domestic or foreign. And whoever j does so will be a profiteer.” So says Representative Joseph W Fordney, father of the i atrocious higher-cost-of-liviiig tariff law. Maybe so, Mr. Fordney; maybe so. But that’s mighty small comfort—and no news—to a hard-up public. They’ve known what you say for several years. The truth is, of course, the prohibitive duties placed on foreign goods by the Fordney tariff means our profiteers have been taken under the wing of the government itself. The avowed object of the new law is to stifle foreign competition and to give big business in America a monopoly in the field. And wherever you find a monopoly you also .find prices sealed up to the very limit the traffic will bear. The new tariff law very definitely fixes prices. The limit is what foreign goods can be brought into this country and sold for at a profit. That American prices will rise to that limit is as certain as that water will seek its own level, Mr. Fordney’s mild wonder to the contrary notwithstanding.

UVOilil ATTORNEY FAVORS UNIFORM DIVORCESTATUTE U. S. Official Believes Change Should Come Through State Action. (Copyright, 1922, by United News) WASHINGTON. Sept. 28.—“Uni form divorce laws are highly desirable” This is the belief of Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, one of the six assistant attorneys general. who is charged with enforcing the prohibition law and many other statutes “I believe in uniform divorce laws,” said this young and attractively tailored member of the little cabinet, “but I do not believe in securing them through a constitutional amendment, as is advocated by some. Efforts are being made to bring about this result by a onmm'ttee of the American Bar Association now at work. “Similar uniform laws have come about through State cooperation A uniform negotiable instructs act came through without a const, lutional amendment, as did the uniform bills of lading act, already in force. "Women are adding to political thought," she said. “Therefore, I am confident sentiment wilt he moused so this uniform law will come through State rather than Federal action. The central committee of the bar associat on is already drafting a law most nearly like the usual ones in the various States, and it will be brought before the State Legislatures. “The Federal Government already is overburdened With the enforcement of many laws more wholesome for the individual States to administer. The States should be assume the burden in a number of instances, notably enforcement'of the prohibit en act." “The Federal arm of the law loses dignity and power as a result of the separate states ‘lying down on the job.’ Respect for the law and power j Infrequently invoked and awesome In i magnitude of interest is diminished ! when the Government steps in to ap i prehend village bootleggers.

CORPUSCLES By OR. R. H. BISHOP
wmsr Tssf
HEN one's blood contains less than the normal number of red corpuscles or lacks the normal amount of coloring matter in red eells, we say he Js anemic—has weak blood. $ • The common ! symptoms of ane- j mla are general weakness. short-
ness of breath on exertion, tendency to dizzy or faint spells, dull and more or less constant headaches, fluttering or palpitation or darting pains about the heart, nervous irritation, unsatisfying sleep, finicky appetite, perhaps loss of norma! color, paleness of the lips, together with “that tired feeling.” The causes are well nigh inmimer able, but foremost is bad air. Indoor life, air contaminated by gas stoves unattached to flues, lack of sunshine, digestive disturbance, improper food or small unnoticed hemorrhages are a few of the causes. The treatment of anemia is, naturally, the removal of the cause. Fresh fruits and green vegetables offer the best or most assimilable iron for the building of new blood. We all know the necessity of sunshine for plant life. If you have ever picked up a board that has lain on the grass for some time you have undoubtedly noticed that the grass beneath the board is yellow or a very sickly green. So it is with human life. Sunlight is a powerful stimulant to the manufacture of blood corpuscles. Don’t depend too much on blood tonics. Iron in the blood must come from natural foods, not from medicine. True, medicinal iron stimulates digestion, perhaps, and thus stimulates blood-making organs to activity, but it can hardly be counted on as an ail in the actual making of the corpuscles themselves. LEARN A WORD TODAY Today’s word is—APLOMB. Generally it’s pronounced—a-plum, with accent on the second syllable; but strictly speaking, the word being French, the two syllables should be accented equally, and the second one fdiould finish with a sound somewhere between “m.” ‘‘n’’ and “ng,” a nasal with no exact equivalent in English. Webster gives it as “a-plan,” with the first syllable accented, but the second more heavily so. It comes from—French “a,” to, and “plomb,” lead. Literally, it means—perpendicularly. but ordinarily has the sense of “assurance of manner, self-posses-sion.” It's used like this—“Kemal Pasha's 'aplomb in his dealings with the allie oubtless is due, in great measure. • assurance of Fr ich an : Italian 'Apathy with Turk< y’s claims.”

MAIL PLANES TO FOLLOW TRAIL OF LIGHT ST NIGHT ___________ / ‘Great White Way’ Will Eventually Be Strung Across Country to Guide Pilots. By United News CHICAGO, Sept. 28.—A “great white way” for the Government’s mail planes, stretching from Chicago for hundreds of miles through the West, will enable pilots to fly at night and make the transcontinental trip from New York to San Francisco in twenty-eight hours by next spring, according to Col. Paul O. Henderson, chief of the United SUates postal air service. Colonel Henderson arrived in Chicago Tuesday to receive bids for what will be the largest airplane factory in the world to be built at the postoffice department field at Maywood, near here. The building will cost SBO,OOO, and will house $400,000 worth of machinery already purchased. Hangars for reserve planes will cost SBO,OOO, he said. When the Maywood Field is completed it will be the center of the department’s air service for the entier United States. Invent Own Devices “We have had to invent our own devices and lights. They have been made and will be put into operation for the first time in Chicago. They are being erected now.” Beacon lights seventy-five feet high, placed on emergency landing fields at Intervals of twenty-five miles along the entire route, will cast .beams for miles and will Indicate to the point just where he is. Each field will be outlined with lights and in the center of each will be a red light under a grating. Bulldogs. silos, windmills and other obstructions will be illuminated by the "daylight perspective" system of lighting. A nearby farmer will be hired to turn on the lights each night and the aviator on passing overhead will signal “goodnight and lights out,” according to present plans.

Fight for Bonus Has Just Begun, Says National Legion Head Hanford MacNider
WASHINGTON, Sept. 28. “The fight for the bonus has just begun.” says Hanford MacNider, national commander of the American Legion. “It is a biggerfissue than ever,” say Congressmen who voted 258 to 54 to pass the bonus over the veto of President Harding. Congressional students, like Nicholas Longworth of Cincinnati, one of the authors of the vetoed bill, frankly predict that as a substitute for the bonus a service pension may be advocated. That world war veterans will get a pension in addition to the bonus within twenty years is predicted by others, among them Congressmen like Representative Fess of Ohio. Pension advocates are even now threatening to bring in such a bill. Meantime Senator H. O. Bursum of New Mexico, chairman of the Senate pensions committee backs a bill providing for teimbursing all enlisted men and officers of the rank of captain and under the sums they paid during the period of their service for war risk insurance, compulsory allotments to dependents, as well as a flat retroactive increase in pay of S2O a month.

POLITICS IN THE PULPIT Writer Declares Party Lines Have No Plaee in Church. The Rev. John Wesley Hill, of the Republican party, was invited to and did speak from the pulpit of the Central Avenue Methodist Church, when he first arrived in this State to take up the hammer for Harding, Daugherty, Lawrence Lyons et al. At that time, his purpose here was r.ot known widely. Whether It was known to the governing board of the church, I do not know. Nevertheless, this has resulted in a complaint against the Methodists for playing politics. Politics has no place In the church. At any rate not politics of the party type. In his speech at Lebanon, Dr. Hill denounced Woodrow Wilson and the League of Nations, in great rancor. The League of Nations, small minded men to the contrary is the world’s greatest effort to find a way to peace. The lowly Nazarene preached the gospel of peace to all and the church is supposed to stand for Christ's teachings. I heard the question asked some time ago. “What would happen if tesus Christ were to appear today in r.ne of our fashionable churches?” He undoubtedly would be thrown out or drown in jail. .

BEVERIDGE AND THE BILL FOR THE FEAST—AN EDITORIAL Dealing With a Subject of Importance to You
Wu^D^ ‘ itffl'n \'~a* \ ~- •: ——■ tAinulfr—
WIIAT has become of the Albert J. Beveridge who was a leader in the fight on the Payne-Aldrich tariff law? The answer is in the words with which a very different Albert J. Beveridge has opened his 1922 senatorial campaign and heartily approved what Senator Lodge of Massachusetts takes pride in calling the new “Republican tariff.’’ Senator Garry of Rhode Land tells us this new “Republican tariff” will cost the people of this country $870,000,000 a year. His estimate is conservative. But, at that, $870,000,000 means your share of the bill will be SB. And if you have a family—the average American family—your share will be S4O a year. MIL BEVERIDGE says it is all right to -saddle you with this annual tax of S4O. But he is keeping silent about who gets the money. Does Uncle Sam get it? No. The only way he can get any mon y out of it I-, r.v way of increased customs receipts.

EVERY POUND SHE BUYS SHE WILL HAVE TO PAY TWO AND ONE-HALF CENTS TAX DUE TO THE NEW TARIFFEvery time she buys a ten-pound bag ofi sugar, therefore, she is out of pocket at least 25 cents. I'M lIS 25 cents, which the “Republican tariff” takes out of your pay envelope, doesn’t go to help run this country. It goes to the sugar trust, to help its members buy nice new Rolls Royces and well-cellared residences abroad. Give this a thought next time you sweeten your coffee. The same thing will happen again when you go to buy your new suit of Sunday clothes. You will make another contribution—this time to the poor woolen trust. And so on wjth the shoe trust, the packers’ trust, the food trust, the kitchen utensils trust, the household furnishings trust, ili“ cotton goods trust and all the rest. YES, it's going to be quite a least when the new tariff law gets into real action. But the farmer will get nothing. Uncle Earn will get nothing. And YOU will get nothing—except the hill. It is this sort of tariff law that Mr. Beveridge will attempt to sell to the voters of Indiana, and, by invitation of President Harding, to the voters of Ohio. And he goes by the same name as he did when he bitterly opposed the Payne-Aldrich law. which, at least ostensibly, was devised to increase the Government revenue.

FRIENDSGRQOM FORD FOR WHITE HOUSEJN ISM American Issue Praises Manufacturer for His Stand on Volstead Act. By O. C. LYOX WASHINGTON, Sept. 28.—Henry Ford may not have his eye on the next' presidential nomination but nevertheless efforts are being made to get him to look in that direction. The American Issue, official organ of the Anti-Saloon League of America, in its current issue prints a lead editorial praising Ford to the skies for his recent "Thou shalt not drink” order to his 85,000 employes. There are in Washington political leaders of national influence who are quietly advising Michigan Democrats this fall to substitute Ford for former Governor Woodbridge M. Fdrriss as their nominee for United States Sena tor against Senator Townsend. This, of course, would help to make Ford a presidential factor. Question of Finance Then there’s the matter of finance. The Democratic bankroll is mighty thin these days. And a recent financial statement from the Ford concern -:howed it had assets of something like $382,627,111.77. The figure may not be exact but it is sufficiently so to show he could, if he would, finance a national campaign all by himself. Here is what the national organ of the drys has to say about the Detroit manufacturer: “Mr. Ford is actuated by patriotic motives. He is doing what Commissioner Haynes has asked every good citizen to do—aid and support the Government in its fight against those who would violate the Constitution. He is obeying the spirit as well as the letter of the law. No man can be an employe of Mr. Ford and a patron of the bootlegger.

When he sold a drink he made thp customer buy two and sell one back. Then the customer automatically became a bootlegger, revenue officer or not. So he thought. The courts thought otherwise. TAX Direct taxation by Uncle Sam now averages $26.80 a yenr for each person in the country. At that, we are getting off cheaply.
