A COURAGEOUS IRISHMAN.
A FOLLOW MAGNET.
A VARIEGATED CLIMATE.
MORE AEROPLANES NEEDED.
A real fighting Irishman has come
to America. William Thomas Cos-
grave, President of the Irish free
State. Diffident, keen light blue
eyes, soft voice, iron will and a lion’s
courage. This is a picture of the
Irish President, for whom fear does
not exist, not even the only fear ad
mitted by his relative* the Celtic
chiefs of Gaul, who admitted that
they feared one thing that the *ky
might fail on them.
If you asked, “Can NOTHING be
more powerful than SOMETHING?”
you would ge no serious answer.
But how do you explain this fact,
announced by German science and
proved by convincing experiment? A
hollow magnet is more powerful than
a solid magnet.
The absence of magnetized metal
inside the magnet increases its mag
netic fJtrength. A magnet containing
four hollow lamellae has as much
lifting power as one containing nine
solid lamellae.
Everything is possible in chemistry
nnd physics, now that atomic con
struction and the horrible power and
speed of the tiny electrons have been
added to human knowledge. But
that holow magnet news is a thing to
A. D. Lasker, who ran the Ship
ping Board, once a young, frightfully
energetic boy, sitting in the outside
office of Lord St Thomas, in Chicago,
now even more frightfully energetic,
aits in the inside office and owns the
place.
He and his wife have just given a
million dollars to Chicago University
to study the “causes, nature and pre
vention of degenerative diseases.”
Within three hundred years, the
average life has increased from thirty
to sixty years, but a man of fifty
has very little better chance of life
than a man of thut age one hundred

We have a vari-gated climate,

naked on the sands of Florida, Cali-
rnia and the Gulf States.
And the thermometer does not tell
. .rything about weather. We shiver
and growl at 1-1 above zero, while
Donald McMillan, Artie explorer,
sent word, through radio, that he is
quite comfortable at Bowdoin, lab
rador, with the temperature 35 be
low zero.
It depends on humidity, elevation,
ozone and other things probably of
which we know nothing.
A dispatch from Nicaragua says
Sandino, the rebel-bandit who killed
some of our marines, has been killed
by a bomb from one of our airplane*
The Nicaragua rebels now know
that they have no more chance
against United States flying machines
than a rabbit hns against eagles.
That is satisfactory so far as our
Nicaragua fight goes.
But our President, Congress and
Army and Navy department* should
remember that several countries in
Europe and at least one in Asia ex
ceed us so greatly in air power that
they could do to us, if they chose,
what we have just done to Sandino

The Emperor of Japan sets an ex

other equally popular numbers.
Sokoloff, whose Russian birth and
background make him a figure of
t muscial interest, is rated to-
as one of the greatest of or
chestral onductors. His great band
of solo artists responds to him as a
result of years of mastei'ul training,
their attacks being so perfect as to
seem as though coming from a single
man instead of from 91. The sheer
perfection of Mr. Sokoloff’« highly
trained organization and its in
stantaneous response to his quick
demands are a source of wonderment
to those hearing the Cleveland Or
chestra for the first time.
The Macon concert is under the
local direction of Robert H. Williams.
Reserved seats may be secured by ad

SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA IN
MACON NEXT WEEK
The Cleveland Symphony Orches
tra, under the direction of the cele
brated conductor, Nikolai Sokoloff,
is to make a triumphal return to
Mucon on Thursday night, February
16th, when it will be heard in a pro
gram of wide appeal at Macon's new
million dollur auditorium. Those
who heard the orchestra there lat*

symphony organization ever heard
in this territory. The Cleveland Or
chestra ranks not only as a leading
orchestra of this country, but of the
world. The entire ensemble of 91
men will be heurd in the concert ut
Mucon nnd the program as arranged
by Mr. Sokoloff will include such
well loved masterpieces a* Schubert's

The question arises, does the same
