SUNDAY. APRIL 19. 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 ECZEMA PEELED OFF IN GREATFLAKES On Ears. Itched and Burned. Could Not Sleep from Scratching. Looked So Badly Was Ashamed. Used Cuticura Soap and Oint ment Five Weeks. Ears Well. It F. D. No. 4. Marshall. N. C.—'"l had •enema on my ears. It would come like a 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 feel cool and soft. After using Cuticura; Soap and Ointment for four or five weeks t my ears were well.” (Signed) Mrs. D. S. Tweed.

Richards Stationery Company 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. Sheron’s stick Candy and Drops are gocd for everyone, ionly 25c per pound.

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. CENTRAL OF GEORGIA RAILWAY 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.
