How He Did It His essay: ' “The city of Indianapolis has constantly grown in population because it has many and varied attractions, '. making it a desirable nlace in which ' to live and work out one’s destiny. . The first impetus of growth since its settlement in 1816 came when ... it was named Indiana’s capital, . June 7, 1820, becoming actual capi- , tal Jan. 1, 1825. ( “Being the economic as well as theoretical center of the State, surrounded by a rich agricultural territory with adjacent fuel and power resources, it attracted a constantly •- increasing number of prospective citizens. Enterprising and progressive men and women built and are ' still building many mills and factories “Indianapolis is 700 feet above sea level, lies on a rolling plain, with no natural barriers, thus permitting growth in all directions. The city * was wisely planned, with wide streets and radial avenues, assuring -quick and easy passage for traffic ’of all kinds. "Indianapolis has grown in shipping facilities from its first railroad ,in 1847 until now it has thirteen interurban lines and sixteen railroads, making connections for all parts of the State and Nation. “A belt railroad around the city , connects with each entering line, < thus •< facilitating the handling of freight and preventing any conges- . tion. “The vehicle roads are comfortable for driving, being wide, smooth and hard. _ “As Indianapolis is situated so near the center of population, both of the United States and of North "America, and having such ideal traf'flc conditions, it lias been called the • 'Gross Roads of the Nation.’ “The constant increase in population has been accompanied by a corresponding enlargement of all other facilities tending to make a prosperous city, until Indianapolis now -has upward of 1,300 manufacturing r companies, making a greatly diversified product, nearly five thousands retail stores, more than three hundred wholesalers and distributors, forty-three banks and trust .companies, fifty-four building and loan associations, 257 churches.

DIPLOMACY OF U. S. IN CHINA IS CONFUSING Policy Scored by Advisor; Birth Control Urged to End Farm Problem. Bii United Press WILLIAM CTOWN, Mass., Aug. 13. Contradictions in America’s policy toward China threatens to precipitate another crisis, Thomas F. Millard, former advisor to the Chinese government, believes. Speaking before the Institute of Politics, he suggested that the pres j ent representatives of the United States should be replaced immediately by men "who have a clearer conception of the ultimate objectives of our Government in that part of the world.” No Consistency During the last two years, the speaker asserted, diplomatic agents of the United States have been helping to enforce treaties in China which the policy of the American Government condemns. Asa result, Chinese have become suspicious of our sincerity. Birth control was suggested by other speakers today as a solution for the present plight of America’s farmers. “If the average farm family was composed of two children,” said Henry A. Wallace, editor of “Wallace’s Farmer,” “there would be a strong tendency for the farms to pass from ofte generation to the next by inheritance, rather than by purchase.” Robbing Farms This condition, he thought, would keep more workers on the farms by making such a choice attraction financially and dulling the lure of the cities. “Soil robbing or the taking of plant food from the earth without restoring it with fertilizer,” said Harry C. Butcher, managing editor of the Fertilizer Review, “is costing agriculture an annual loss of $400,000,000.” OBSERVE ANNIVERSARY Five thousand visitors attended the sixtieth anniversary exercises on the grounds of the General Protestant Orphans’ Home, 1404 S. State Ave., Sunday. secretary of State Frederick E. Schortemeier delivered the principal address. The morning service was conducted by the Rev. Ernest A. Pieponbrow, pastor of St. John’s Evangelical Church. Music was furnished by the Cincinnati General Protestant Orphans’ Home Band.

BY PAUL EDWARD GARBER In charge of aeronautic*, Smithsonian Institution. . 11. WING OF 5-S-2 / ' (First part.) In the early days of aeronauitcal history airplanes were equipped with flat wings, but after a study of the anatomy of birds, and of aerodynamics the curved wing was adopted as being more efficient. Whereas the flat wings exerted a lift only because of the pressure on the under surface, it was found that curved wings, in addition to the pressure on the bottom, utilized a vacuum on the top surface, and thus increased the wing efficiency. The next step was to find the most efficient curvature for the top surface, and what shapes of upper and lower surfaces produced the best results whether the object desired was speed, or lift, or combinations of these two facturs. Thus there have been evolved many wing sections. When anew one is designed an accurately made pattern of it is placed in a sensitive balance in a variable air stream, and its actions noted. The results are published and are available to aircraft designers. The sections are

given reference names and numbers such as Eiffel 15 or Clark-Y, meaning the number of the experiment conducted by that particular designer or laboratory. One of the most efficient wing sections is the U. S. A.-27. When used in a wing it imparts to the airplane an excellent degree of speed and lift, with vet 7 little resistance. It has been used on many prominent. airplanes, including the Douglas World Cruisers, which circumnavigated the world in 1624. We will use this section on our model. The drawing shows the shape of this wing section. The upper drawing illustrates how the shape may be accurately copied. We will use a wing with a width of 5-14 inches, therefore on a sheet of paper draw a line this long. With a pair of dividers, divide the line into 10 spaces and number the divisions from 0 to 100 as shown. With tfcie dividers still set at 1-10 of the line’s length, extend them below the line and draw a line equal to the top line at this point. Divide the distance between the lines into ten spaces and draw a line across from each division, and add two lines

equally spaced below the tenth. Next draw vertical lines downward from the marks 0 to 100. This practically completes the preparation for the drawing, but for the sake of better accuracy divide the first space in half and each of these smaller spaces in half. The spac* between 90 and 100 also is to be halved. “For clarity, you may mark these smaller divisions in the first space 1%, 2V4, 5 and 7%, and similarly the next to the last subdivision may be marked 95. The horizontal lines are to be marked from 0 to 12, from the bottom up. The screen is now ready for marking the points of intersection of the wing outline. To draw the upper and lower surface lines use the following table, wherein the first column indicates the vertical lines, che second column indicates the position on this line where the upper surface of the wing intersects, and the third column indicates where the lower surface of the wing Intersects. For instance, the tabulation: 20—11, 1-3—l*3, means that on vertical line 20 a mark is to be made 1-3 of aspace beyond the elventh horizontal line and 1-3 of a tpace above the zero line to indicate where the upper and lower surfaces, respectively, cross. Using this method plot every position. Vertical L. Upper S. Lower S. 0 14-5 14-5 1 Vi. 3 4-5 ft 2V4 51-10 1-3 5 7 1-5 7‘4 81-5’ 1-10 10 9 1-5 0 20 111-3 1-3 30 12 1 40 lit* 11-5 50 10 4-5 4-5 60 914 1-4 70 8 1-10 80 6 1-20 90 3 3-5 1-5 95 2 >i 100 3-5 3-5 Connect the various marks you have made on the screen and the resulting outline will be that of the U. S. A.—27 wing section. Carefully preserve this drawing and tomorrow we will take up the subject of incorporating this section in the wing of our model.
