Matters Little of What Nationality Inventors
of Aeroplane Are, in European Powers
Struggle For Supremacy of the Air
London.—lt U typical of the atten
tion which the European powers are
giving to the question of aerial »u
--preraacj that the Itrttieh Army Coun
cil has tilt* week been conducting a
aeries of tests of an entirely Uertnan
Roreplane. It matters little where
t tie machine comes from or the na
tionality of the Inventor so long as
there is no lagging behind In the race
for the conquest of the sir.
The mnchlne In question was built
at the Albatross Aeroplane Works at
Johsnnlsthnl, near Berlin, and Is fit
ted with a 100 h. p. engine also of
Herman manufacture. Herr Wiener,
director of the manufacturing com
pany, Herr Hclnkel. constructor, and
Herr Thlelen. a German aviator, who
manipulated the machine, all came
specially for the tests.
Gave Satisfaction.
It is, of course, impossible to get
any definite statement oT the results.
expert watchers are agreed that
the flights gave full satisfaction It
has even been stated that the military

pimple. Itched and burned and I could not
keep from scratching. Then
the pimple would break, run
water and then it turned to
an ugly sore and peeled off in
great flakes. I was in such
pain that I could not sleep
at night. They burned. Itched
and were swollen and looked
very badly. I went with my
head tied up they looked so
badly I wu ashamed of them. I would
think they were going to get better but 1
they would only come back as bad as ever.
*‘l was given different kinds of medicine
but none did me any good ao I at last tried
Cuticura Soap and Ointment. After the 1
first or second application my ears began to

DARKENS
GRAY HAIR
STOPS FALLING HAIR
Darkens Evenly and Naturally
When your hair turns gray, faded,
white or streaked with gray—if hair is
falling out or is brittle or straggly, try
the following: On retiring rub "Q-Ban”
on hair and scalp like a shampoo. Let
it fail free and dry over night The
gray disappears and a few more ap
plications of Q-Ban your hair is beau
tifully darkened and quickly becomes
thick, glossy and lustrous. Q-Ban
stops falling hair, promotes its growth,
stops Itching scalp and dandruff.
Q-Ban gives a delightful feeling of
refreshment and cleanliness to th*
scalp—as Q-Ban is not sticky or messy,
has a mild, pleasant odor; safe to use
and never disappoints. Darkens hair
so evenly and naturally no one can
tell. Keeps you looking young by
keeping your hair dark, fluffy and
beautiful. A large 7-ounce bottle sold

authorities contemplate placing a
l*rge order with the German firm
and we hnve hud the Inevitable storm
of criticism of an action so "unpatriot
ic."
It Is hardly likely that the govern
ment will risk wholesale condemna
tion by plac'ng any considerable or- j
der with the German firm unless, of
course, the Albatross has some extra
ordinary advantage not to be found
in any British mnchlne.
This development has called renew
ed attention to the patent waterplane
with folding wings Invented by Mr.
Horace Short, of the firm of Short
Bros, it is pointed out, with full sat- j
isfurtion, that this wonderful plane Is
likely to revolutionize the future util
ity of the waterplane. The admiralty
have put their cleverest designers to
work to prepare plans for the build
ing of a battleship which will serve
as its own air station and in anticipa
tion oT the i robabillty of such a ves
sel being required in the near future,
the naval experts are putting the
Short waterpllne to the most exhaus
tive tests.
Contrivance Simple.
Those through which the machine
has already gone have been sufficient
to warrant the optimism of the In
tentors It has been shown that the
wings when folded are only ten feet
across as against the full area of the
seventy feet In the rigid plane. It
will be found possible to carry just as
many of these machines on board a
Iv-ttleship as the development and
scnce of nval warfare may prove de
sirable.
The contrivance Is so simple and
cffec.ive that the wings can be fold
ed or unfolded in less than a minute
while the waterplane is floating on
the surface of the water by the side
of the ship to which it is attached
and It can be hoißted on board or
launched w ith the greatest easw.
It will also be possible now to ear
ly a waterplane slung in davits ready
for launching, just as ships boats are
carried now. Should the experiments
now going on be the success antici
pated it is more than likely that a
waterplane will soon be an indispen
sable part of the equipment of every
battleship.
Rapid Strides.
The colonies, too, are following the
lead of the mother-country and avia
tion is making rapid strides in South
Africa. For some time the well
known British aviator. Mr. Patterson,
has been in Cape Colony training a
small number of men in the art ot
aviation and five of his pupils are
on their way to England to complete
their training. When they return to
South Africa, a Government Flying
Corps will be established. But cau
tion seems to be the watchword of
the colonial authorities. They are
content to move slowly and to take
advantage of developments as they
come along.
BE GAYER THAN
EVER IN PARIS
-
Following Visit of King and
Queen There is to Be Gather
ing of European Municipal
Luminaries.
Paris.—The Gay City promises to
be gayer than ever this year. The
Entente Cordial and the Triple En
tente are to be made doubly secure
and visitors to our beautiful boule
vards will find plenty of amusement
and entertainment. Following the
visit of King George and Queen Mary
in April, there Is to be a mammoth
gathering of European municipal lu
minaries. For one solid week begin
ning with the first day of June Paris
will be en fete and among our distin
guished visitors will be the Lord
Mayor Sheriffs and Aldermen of the
City of London, the London County
Council, the Westminster City Coun
cil and the municipalities of St. Pe
tersburg, Moscow, Copenhagen, Ant
werp, Liege, Ghent, Madrid, Cordova,
Granada and Seville.
Hospitality.
Details of the program of entertain
ment have been issued and the visit
ors will have every reason to remem
ber the hospitality of their Parisian
hosts. It is characteristic of the
French that they "never spoil the
ship for a cent’s worth of tar," and
they are evidently determined to re
gale their guests right royally. Re
ceptions by the government and the
municipality, soirees, banquets and
gala performances will be the features
of a memorable week of gaiety.
There is a growing disposition to
regard these visits as the best pos
sible means of cementing internation
al friendships and it was the Paris
municipality which set the example
last year by making a tour of all the
cities to whom the Invitation to Paris
has now been Issued.
Good Feeling.
It Is Just possible that the good feel
ing between England and France may
be further strengthened by the estab
lishment of a penny postal service be
tween the two countries. Strenuous
efforts are being made on both sides
of the channel to bring tills about as
a fitting climax to and celebration of
the visit of King George and of the
tenth year of the Entente Cordiale.
It can be confidently assumed that
public opinion Is solid for the reform
Much Is being made of the success of
the penny postal system between
England and the United States. Of
ficial estimates give the number of
Frenchment resident In London as
25.000 and though I have not yet seen
any official figures regarding the
number of Britishers in Paris I should
say that it is not far short of the
above figures
As usual the British end Is the ob
stacle to the speedy realisation of
this reform, hut it is only a matter of
time. Apparently our friends across
the water have more momentous
problems to solve just now.

PROGRESSIVE POLICIES
Since its earliest days the CENTRAL OF GEORGIA RAILWAY has endeavored
to be a constructive force in the upbuilding of Georgia and Alabama.
Our policy has been one of EXPANSION. We have builded instead of
tearing down. We have “BOOSTED” every effort made by our patrons
for civic or commercial betterment.
THE CENTRAL has, by the inauguration of test farms demonstrated to farm
ers along its line that 36 per cent net profit may be made on an acre of
land and these profits are now in the pockets of the farmers who culti
vated their crops under the guidance of our agricultural department.
BOYS’ CORN CLUBS have been stimulated to greater endeavor, aud boyi
four crop contests will be organized in 1914.
FACTORIES have been induced to locate in Georgia and Alabama and
are now employing labor and spending money in our midst.
TRAIN SERVICE has been made to keep pace with these rapidly growing
states. Revenues received have been turned over into new railway
stations, heavier rails, better bridges, more efficient machinery, higher
class passenger accomodation and faster freight service. The CENTRAL
OF GEORGIA RAILWAY now links the NORTH, EAST, SOUTH, and
WEST into close social and business relationship, with passenger and
freight service which annihilates what used to be great distances and has
the effect of drawing us close to our neighboring markets—markets that
bay oar products and sell us something we do not produce.
WHY do we do all these things ? Why do we establish test farms and farm
colonies? Why do we talk of EFFICIENCY and SYSTEM and the
UPLIFT of conditions ? An “Old Timer” -ays we are trying to be too
up-to-date. A “Knocker” says that we are only selfish and we “must
be getting something out of it”.
THE REAL REASON is that our lines extend throught the heart of the rich
est sections of the South. We live here just as does the farmer, the
manufacturer, the laborer, tbe merchant. We are of the people and
for the people. We must labor with them, and they with us. Increas
ed prosperity means increased traffic; increased traffic means more
prosperity. Its just an endless chain of co-operation and mutual good
wilL
THAT’S what the CENTRAL OF GEORGIA is after. This company can help
you and this company needs your support to make Georgia and Alabama
nigger and better.
WE SEEK A BETTER ACQUAINTANCE with every individual If yoa
doubt os write to any CENTRAL OF GEORGIA representive. Ask aim
for a schedule, a insight rate, or a red folder showing onr handful of
strong lines. It’s a ten to one bet you will get a cheerful and intelligent
reply.

Keeping Up With Uncle Sam
IN the last thirty-seven years of national progress, the Bell
Telephone has played an important part.
Out of the public’s demand for universal service has grown
the Bell system, covering the entire country with one great in
tercommunicating system.
Today there are more than 7,500,000 telephones connected
by 14,000,000 miles of wire in the Beli system, and every day
the service is extended to meet the ever increasing needs of
the people.
