HOURLY REPORT ON WEATHER IS AIRMAN’S NEED Special Service Is Found Aid in Avoiding Area of Storms. By Science Service NEW YORK, Dec. 27.—Hourly reports of weather along the airways are one of the needs of civil aeronautics. In this way the pilots may be informed immediately of any changes in weather conditions, Willis R. Gregg of the United States weather bureau, told members of the American Meteorological society here this morning. “Established airways now cover some 14,000 miles, with about half this distance lighted for night flying. Special weather service has been organized on all these airways. This service includes upper air reports from about fifty stations, at which pilot balloons are used in measuring upper winds, and reports of surface weather conditions from about 150 stations, located at critical points on the airways themselves. In general the reports are timed to fit the flight schedules, although there now are in operation two experimental services—San' Francisco to Los Angeles and New York to Cleveland—in which reports are furnished at frequent, regular intervals, both day and night. Thus all flying on those airways is served, whether on regular schedule oi not.

Extensive Service Given “The reports contain information concerning those weather elements that are of most concern to pilots, particularly visibility, ceiling (height of cloud base), fog, and storminess. These reports are supplemented by short-range forecasts for the next one to five or six hours. “So much for the present status. As for future prospects, the plans that are being worked out for adoption as rapidly as facilities permit include the following main features: “Extension of the twice-daily program of country-wide reports to a four-times-a-day program, thus making available general forecasts and bulletins at intervals of six hours, as at present. “A supplementary system of three-hourly reports from small areas, secondary nets,’ along the several airways. Receipt of these by trained meteorologists at airport stations will make possible the safeguarding of fliers from disturbances that develop some distance off the airways and approach them from one side or the other. , Informed On Changes “Hourly reports from numerous points on the airways themselves. These will keep the meteorologists and others constantly informed as 1o changes that may be occurring along the line of flight. “A prompt and dependable system of communications is the ‘backbone’ of the service. At present the teletype, or typewriter-printer, is being considered favorably for the hourly reports. Probably the telegraph and telephone will answer for the less frequent reports. Radio must be included for communicatios between ground and plane and will supplement the others when they are out of commission.” Each of the huge steel doors of the Bank of England vaults weigh twelve tons.

Immigrant Boy Mends Soles to Get Start on His Career as a Physician

Greek Youth Paying Way Through University at His Last. By XEA Service BOSTON, Mass., Dec. 27.—From a mender of soles to a mender of bodies was the dream of a penniless immigrant boy years ago. And the dream is coming true today, for Nicholas Padis is building a business and professional career at the same time, and making one pay for the other. A second-year student at the Boston university medical school, he also supports himself and a family of four by working long hours in his little shoe repair shop. Born in Asia Minor Born in a Greek city in Asia Minor, Nicholas arrived in this country at the age of 14, with nothing but ambition, all his money having been used up to pay his steerage passage. Life never had treated him kindly. “My father,” he explained, “lost his business when I was a child, and we were expelled from Asia Minor by the Turks. We struggled back toward the homeland, getting no further than Mytalene, ancient Lesbos, famous as the home of Sappho. Here I got work in an apothecary shop owned by the only doctor of the island. He fired my ambition to follow in his profession, and America seemed to me the place where my ambitions could be realized. Borrowed to Reach U. S. “In 1916 I left my refugee home, borrowed the money to come to America, and made my way to Lynn, Mass., where I worked for half a year in a shoe factory for $4 a week. Not used to long hours and heavy machines, I became ill and landed in a hospital, where I spent what little I had accumulated getting back my health.” Penniless and homesick, the boy wandered into Boston, too proud to beg, too weak to work, and too discouraged to care whether he lived or died. Finally he found a job washing dishes in a hotel. This provided food, and he regained his health. Four years after his arrival here he had saved some money, and borrowed enough more to bring his people to America. This made him the guardian of a father and mother and two young sisters —and again he was without funds. Earns His Education “I had lots of nerve, at least,” Padis laughed, “for in the face of a huge debt I already owed, I borrowed $1,500 more, at a high rate of interest, and set myself up in a shoe repair shop. In three years I paid all my debts and was able to send my sisters to school and myself to Boston university. “My former creditors declared me a born business man and offered to loan me more money for a chain store proposition. I declined because my ambition to be a doctor was too strong to make me regard the shoe business as anything more than a means to an end. “I wanted to restore human beings, not shoes. And when I get through medical school I shall say good-by to my old benefactor, the work bench, though I shall never cease to be grateful to it.” WAKE UPGROUNDHOG Found in Nasty Humor; Chained by Workman, Taken Home. By United Press CHICAGO, Dec. 27.—Mr. Ground Hog came out of his hole today more than a month ahead of time but was too angry to look for his shadow. He didn’t emerge from his winter’s nap because he thought spring was around the comer but because he was rudely awakened in his hole ten feet under the surface by a workman excavating for a bridge pier. The workman put a chain around his neck and took him home.

Guard Against “Flu” With Musterole

Influenza, Grippe and Pneumonia usually start with a cold. The moment you get those warning aches rub on good old Musterole. Musterole relieves the congestion and stimulates circulation. It has all the good qualities of the old-fashioned mustard plaster without the blister. First you feel a warm tingle as the healing ointment penetrates the pores, then a soothing, cooling sensation and quick relief. Have Musterole handy for emergency use. It may prevent serious illness. To Mothers: Musterole is also made in milder form for babies and small children. Ask for Children’s Musterole. Better than a mustard platter

WET DECLARES PROHIBITION IS ON LAST LEGS Even Drys Confess Failure of Law, Association Speaker Asserts. By United Press CHICAGO, Dec. 27.—Scandal, corruption, invasion of personal liberty, and the endangering of the political and social structure of the country accompany the efforts of the federal government to enforce the eighteenth amendment, John C. Gebhart, director of research for the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment, told members of the American Political Science Association at their annual meeting today. “It is becoming increasingly clear each year,” Gebhart said, “that the enforcement of the national prohibition law is unable to keep pace with the rapidly increasing illicit liquor trade.” Government officials admit that they have reached the peak of enforcement, Gebhart said, citing the statement of Dr. James Doran, commission of prohibition, that “it will take $300,000,000 and a system of United States courts covering the land” to enforce the Volstead act. Breakdown Confessed “Doran really is confessing a complete breakdown in national prohibition when he makes that statement,” Gebhart said. Doran’s suggestions of a treaty with Canada to dam the flow of liquor from that country and tighter state enforcement with large appropriations of money from the fortyeight commonwealths were cited by Gebhart as subterfuges to get the states to bear the cost of making the country dry. “If the states are asked to cooperate in prohibition enforcement, they have a right to say what form of liquor control shall be left in their hands,” Gebhart said.

It contains the juices of 22 roots and herbs and worKs in Nature’s own way, invigorating and strengthening the inner organs until the sufferer’s health is fully restored in every way. Thousands of local people have already called to see the Konjola Man at Hook's Drug Store, Illinois and Washington Streets, Indianapolis, and hear his personal explanation of this celebrated compound, and vast crowds are still calling every day to find out for themselves what this new medicine will do. At the same time letters of praise and gratitude are coming from meni and women all over this secti( telling how this Konjola has helpe* them. One of the latest receive® by the Konjola Man is from Mr. <■ T. Wright, 342 Parkway Street, Ih dianapolis. B “I have improved so much sinfl taking Konjola that I feel I rl help others by telling what tIH medicine did for me," said AM Wright. “It is the best medioiM that ever entered my home and r rejoice to think that after several years of suffering I found a medicine to give me lasting relief. “A stubborn case of kidney trouble caused my whole system to become very much rundown. I was bothered with frequent night rising and this destroyed my rest every night. Doctors told me I had acid in my kidneys, which resulted in terrible burning sensations in thej bladder. As this trouble continued! rheumatism gradually set in an ™ added greatly to my suffering. At times my limbs would get cold and it felt as though a thousand needles were piercing my flesh. The pains kept me in almost constant misery and I could never find anything to help me. In time my stomach, too, became disordered and nearly everything I ate would sour and ferment, filling my system with gas until I was so bloated up I coipll hardly breathe. i “I will frankly admit that I didn’t think Konjola would help me at ithe time I started taking this medicine, but in a few days’ time I noticed such wonderful relief in my stomach that I could realize it was true. As I continued to take this medicine faithfully all the other symptoms disappeared and now my health is back to normal in every way. Konjola worked remarkably fast and in my case, considering my advanced age. My rheumatism is gone entirely and every trace of kidney trouble has left me. I have new strength and energy and wake up every morning with the feeing that I am glad I am alive."
