It is still in the experimental stage and has attracted the interest of Colonel Lindbergh.
Paris Is Hub of World Air Lines
Planes Leave Le Bourget Field Every Day for Foreign European Capitals. Le Bourget, France.—Here adven ture begins and most triumphantly ends. This big bare field of many score acres, nearly a mile and a half long by half a mile wide, is to those who travel by air in Europe the world’s Grand Central station. It is from here they must set out when they would conquer fame. It is here they must come in the accomplishment of tiieir triumphs. East, west north and south, the worlds air lines run to and from it. Eastward in two days and a night, about one year ago came Charles A. Lindbergh from New York to find at Le Bourget such a welcome as no man ever had, a welcome that set an example in history which the whole ■world followed wherever that young Parsifal has since appeared. Here from the east recently came Dieudonne Costes and Joseph Lebrix, leaping in giant strides in six days from Tokyo across China, India and western Asia. From here Nungesser and Coli started out and failed. German Field Busier. It is not now the world’s busiest airport. Templehof field, at Berlin, it is claimed, has even more “suburban’’ traffic. Amsterdam and Cologne are bigger junctions. But Le Bourget is to flying what Times square is to New York and what the Grand Central station is to the United States railroad system. Here the whole world meets. It is only 19 years since Louis Bleriot made the first successful flight from France to England, blazing the trail of the world s first air line, l.ast year, along the route he took, just over 10,000 persons Hew from Le Bourget to Croydon, and even more came from London to Paris. There is no air line anywhere so regular, so busy, or so extensively used as this between Paris and London. Last July, 1,297 passengers flew from here to London, and in August the number reached 1,520. In Europe s aerial time table, which is a goodsized volume covering 140 established routes, this line ranks as No. 1. Two companies, one English and the other French, assure service with a minimum of three planes each way every day except Sunday, when the service is reduced to one. At busy times eight and ten planes have been put on by each of these two companies; and their accident record is rather less per passenger carried than railroads can boast. Four-Hour Service. As a time and trouble saver, this line is among the world's best. Even by the most luxurious trains and boats it takes 7^ hours to travel from Paris to London, with all the trouble of having to change from train to boat and from boat back to train. By automobile and air, the journey from the center of Paris to the center of London takes just four hours. By the Air Union s de luxe plane, which serves luncheon on board, one can leave a Paris office at 11:45 o’clock and reach Haymarket, London, at 3:45, in time for any business appointment. Nor is flying any more expensive than traveling by train and boat. On the de luxe plane, the price is S2B, against S2O by the slower route, and on the cheap early morning plane one can travel for $23.50. With every year the air routes of
COTTAGE IN TREE TOPS HAVEN FOR HONEYMOO. :2RS
- $ Love Nest Built by Pennsylvania Farmer Is Occupied Most of the Year. Hellam, Pa—A cottage in the tree tops, surrounded by a myriad bril-liant-colored lights and overlooking a placid little brook—that is the honeymoon ideal as conceived by Morgan Emig, a farmer near here. And the strange part of It all Is that Emig has built this love nest for the benefit of others and it has already been used by honeymooners from all parts of the country. Situated among the branches of a huge buttonwood tree, the cottage is equipped as thoroughly as any of its size on the ground, containing electric light, dishes, stove for cooking, complete bedroom and living room suites and has porches on three sides. To approach the love nest, one must first enter Emig’s farm and traverse
«> France are being made safer and safer. Along the Paris-London route the country has been carefully charted, and if at any time a motor should fail, every pilot knows what spot is within reach to which he cun plane down and find good landing ground. There have been cases, although none recently, when engine fai'ure has occurred over the channel and the pilot has managed to glide down gently to a correct landing near Calais or Dover. To Light Airways. Now it is proposed to haxe the four principal air routes, Paris London. Paris-Brussels, Baris-Marseiiles and Toulouse-Persigmtn, lighted by special orange-colored searchlights, which will continually Hash a signal letter inui eating to planes their whereabouts. More and more this airport ol Le Bourget is becoming like a railroad stal ion. “Passengers. for Brussels. Rotterdam, Amsterdam. Bremen, Hamburg, Copenhagen, and Malmo please take their seats,” tfie joud speaker from the roof of the directors office will announce. Or smother time it is “Plane from Budapest, Vienna, Nu retnberg, Strassbourg now arriving.” From this wide field one can travel to any capital in Europe, and every week, almost, new links are being added, so that soon the serx ice max include A-na and America. Anywhere by Plane. The Imperial Airways joins Paris with London and Zurich. By the three regular French lines, whose headquarters are at Le Bourget, one can travel almost anywhere in Europe, while a fourth will hire out a plane from Le Bourget to overtake a missed boat to Cherbourg or to go anywhere else, from Hying for $2 worth over the field itself to catching the Indian Mail at Suez. The Air Union has a direct daily or twice weekly service with London. Lyons, Marseilles, Geneva. Antibes, Corsica and Tunis. By the Compagnie Internationale de Navigation Avienne one can Hy eastward to Prague. Vienna, Budapest. Belgrade, Bucharest, and Constantinople. The Farman lines take one to Brussels, FOUR-FOOTED DUCK fa KJV This remarkable bird was found by a poultry dealer of Portland, Ore., when he opered a crate of ducks. The , duck has four fully developed legs, I but although it can move its rear i pedal extremities, it uses only the front ones to walk on. The bird is nor- ' mai in every other way.
the quarter mile between the main highway and the cottage. On arrival there is a flight of steps leading up the trunk of the tree to a height of about twenty-five feet, where they turn and lead out along a branch to a spot directly over the stream, where the cottage is located. The cottage rests on beams sup ported by steel cables and was built about eight years ago. “I first got the idea when a bunch of kids wanted to build a treehouse and laid a platform in the branches,” Emig said. “I then iwondered why a substantial house could not be made there and started work. Each year I made improvements and added a little something, but now, in my estimation, It is about perfect.” The cottage is weatherproof and even has a back yard. Scattered about among the branches and amid the many colored lights are chairs

To Get $142,500 for Making Cannon Safer Washington.—A draftsman in the War department is to be rewarded by his government for inventions of mechanisms making Hie firing of cannon safer. Congress so decided with the approval by the house of a senate hill awarding a $1 12,5(Mi payment to the inventor. Jolin W. Stockett, who has served as a draftsman with the War depart ment for more than a quarter of a ven fury, devised five inventions at rhe time of the Spanish-American war Im proving the breech closing and tiring mechanisms of cannon which were accepted by the government as superior to the devices of two foreign compa nies. Compensation was refused Stockett at the time of their acceptance on the ground that “it had been his business as an employee of the War department.” Reno Still Popular Center for Divorces Reno, Nev. — Long famous as a divorce center, Reno was a much larger magnet for disagreeing couples last year than in 1926. Reviewing marriage and divorce sta tisties for Nevada, the United States Department of Commerce credited that state with 1,953 divorces in 1927, an increase of 932, or 91.3 per cent, over the previous year. Specific figures for Reno were not given, but Eashoe county, in which Reno is situated, was shown to have granted 1,603 of the total, a gain of 847, or more than LOO per cent.

Aside from its use by honeymooners, Emig rents the cottage for card parties, dances and like social gatherings. A radio is provided with two loud speakers, one located in the cottage and the other in the top of the tree. “At one time there have, been as many as 20 persons dancing in the cottage and at card parties there have been four tables in play,” Emig said. “Os course. It Is making the money, as It Is in use the year around and 1 charge rental for the use of it, but the biggest kick I get out of it is from the honeymooners and others who get the benefit of it,” he said, “and I have a lot of fun Improving IL” At nights the tunes from the loud speaker can be heard on the main York to Harrisburg road a quarter of a mile away and the lights in the huge tree can be seen from a great . distance, resembling a monster ChristI mas tree.
n ——a Yanks Can’t Win Without Luck t €6T know the Yanks have got the best ball club in the country, but I I that'doesn’t mean it is any cinch xve are going to win.” And ” that, fellow fans, is what the game’s biggest tigure. Babe Ruth, ■ i thinks about the impending American league pennant race. I The Babe bares his innermost thoughts about baseball generally, ♦ baseball fans, baseball luck and, specifically, the Yanks’ chances during ■■ J the coming season in an interview xvith Bozeman Bulger, the veteran ” ? sports writer, published in The Farm Journal.
i “The trouble with baseball fans,” observes t Mr. Ruth, “is that they get so steamed up over i an easy win that they forget that 50 per cent of f baseball is luck. If something goes wrong the I next year they start right off talking about int termil dissension, and this and that player being I hard to get along xvith, and so on. Tlmy never T figure that the luck simply broke the other way.” I There have been a lot of great ball clubs ? that have pulled up in the ruck of a major j league race, far behind inferior teams, simply | because they didn’t get that 50 per cent break | of luck, if y<ni want Mr. Ruth’s opinion. | “To cop the old flag,” says the $70,000 | beauty quaintly, “a ball club has not only got i to be the best, but it’s got to get the breaks at ? the right time, too. I “Did you ever think what might have hap-
| pened to us last season if xve hadn't got off to that runaway start and || then had another long winning streak soon aflerxvard? Just throw out / t those txvo streaks, or balance them up with average luck, and see xvhere I we would have been. Now it doesn’t figure out that xve are going to .. * t have sueli a streak again, even xvith the same ball players. “I know the Yanks have got the best ball club in the country, but | suppose somebody breaks a leg or one of our best pitchers goes wrung. . T What then?” '' ♦ Incidentally, Bulger's Farm Journal article throws an Interesting J light on Ruth's determination to make himself better—and positixely not I bigger—during the season, a characteristic that has grown year by year 1 since his comeback of three years ago.
Half-Mile Record Held | by Six Different Men i In view of Lloyd Hahn's record It Is interesting to note that only five men before him have held the acknoxvledged world’s half mile record since 1885. The great Lon Meyers set n world's mark of 1 minute 552 5 seconds In the half In ISSS and that stood for just ten years, on September 21. 1^95. in a dual meet between the New York A. C. and Oxford and Cambridge in New York. Cbarles 11. Kilpatrick, n Union College star, covered the distance in 1 minute 53% sccomls. It was almost fourteen years Inter, S' ptember 15, 1909, thnt Emilio Lungli! tin Italian runner tonring America, cut the record to 1 minute 52% seconds nt Montreal. Then, nt the 1912 Olympics, cane Ted Meredith's great 1 minute 52% seconds dash and four years later his 1 minute 52% s> conds performance In a I’ennsylvanla Cornell dual meet.

FREAK SHOT CLUB IS NOW REIGNING List of Eligibles Presented i in American Golfer. Noxv that holes-in-one have been made on every year-old course in the land, the journalistic gentlemen xvho follow the game are digging up eligibles for a more exclusive mythical fraternity, the Freak Shot club. AH you need to become a member I are the proper circumstances —and a ton of luck. If you happen to play j your ball from its lip in a bird's mst plop into the hole, or if your hopeless book ricochets from a tree ami becomes a hole-in-one, you're in. Ami I you are in goo,] company, as witness ■ this list of eligibles presented in the American golfer. Willie MacFarlane got in through a barn door—txvo barn doors, in fact. He was playing against Harry Hampton at the Aberdeen (Scotland) club. They were fighting hole for hole when Willie sliced a drive terrifically. It pulled up near a bat i. far off the fairxvay. But Willie, opening the barn door, found a second door exactly opposite and the hole on a line 200 yards axvay. lie had to hit a hard drive, measured in Indies to get through both doors. But he did it stopping his ball within six feet of the bole. Joe Demoss, former Wisconsin State champion, was matched with Warren K. Wood at Green Lake. Wis.. when liis drive from the eighteenth tee came down on top of a tlat axvning near the clubhouse. Demoss mom.ted Ute axvning and. teetering precariously, slapped a beautiful 1 rassie shot for the hole, ending a short chip-shot away. Aubrey Boomer was as surprised as his gallery at the play that took him into the Freak Shot dub. The English star xxas playing a Lancashire tournament. when In's drive landed in front of a two-foot bank over which lie bad to play. Using his spoon, lie gave the j ball a vicious cut. But instead of i arching thnnith the air the ball disappeared completely. After a mystitied search. Boomer incredulously dtvw the ball from his pocket. It had strmk the soft earth at the top of the bank, rebounded and hidden it-sr-If while lie still had his arms ertended in completing the swing. And xvhat do the rules say about that one? in the 1926 Canadian Open at Montreal. Leo Diegel, then the titleholder, found himself looking hopelessly un the long elexcnth hole in the practice rounds, says the American Golfer arti< le. His <,ne 1 ope to escape the jinx, he concluded, was to drive toward the 1 twelfth fairway, xvhich ran parallel on the right, and let 'er book. Twice he did it m the regular play, and both times the hooks described a perfect semit ircb- but landed 350 yards axvay and in the center us the eleventh fairway.
