Now, when - ARE NECESSARY. Some Details of the Intricate Factors Entering Into the Manufacture of Warplanes, The time, labor and material which making of a warplane are thus set forth by Lieutenant Colonel Hiram Bipgham, Signal Corps, U.S.A. Let me try to depict by a rough pic- | ture a plane in the making. Suppose, for instance, you were set to driving 4326 nafls and 8877 screws. Undoubt- edly that would be tal of 7703 separate operations. Well, when you had reached the 5000 mark you could truthfully be told that you had done less than two-thirds of the work of this sort required for a single airplane. (These figures are for a training plane; for a French battle- plane 28,000 screws are said to be needed.) Somehow &~plane looks sO simple and floats so gracefully through the air that we lose all thought of the skill that goes into its making. Must Use Little Metal. Just/recently we have received some figures of the material which is re- <| quired £or one of the simpler training planes! For instance, 921 steel stampings must be cut out, 798 forg- ings cast and 276 turn-buckles, all for a single m ie. Think, then, of the hundreds of thousands of such pieces needed for the thousands of planes in the Ameri- can program and of how utterly hope- less for usthe situation would be if bthose parts were not standardized, "| turned out by machinery in tens of thousands, and usable in. scores of different factories on any Mind > lane. y .yeduction' of aircraft disse; Thy to the simplest, stand- ardized quantity production basis has been one of America's great triumphs in the air and an achievement which very soon will: be making itself felt. But metal must be used in an air- plane as little as possible. It is alto- gether too heavy, especially when a few extra pounds make all the mar- gin in speed between victory and de- feat. An engine of 800 horsepower is in itself enormously heavy to rise into the air; so that the rest of the machine must attain the very acme of lightness. 3 The Strain Exerted. That very lightness, however, en- tails enormous strength and perfect adjustment. Think of the strain which is exerted on every wire and nut, every inch of linen and every bit of wood as this 300-horsepower mech- anism rushes through the air at 150 miles an hour! Cyclones often do not go as fast, and we can easily picture what happens to a strongly built house when the air strikes it at that speed. But if the strain is great simply be- cause of high speed, what must it be when_a plane suddenly careens down- ward, taking a tremendous pressure off one part and hurling it upon an- other, It is that kind of sharp, sud- den, unevenly. distributed shock which allows -the slightest tap.of a knife to crack an egg or the explosion of a depth bomb to crush in the unpre- pared side of a submarine. Obviously "a plane must be built. so skillfully and { ns to. with-| oy stand not. only the pripeure of the cyclone speed, but also thé. added Airplane 8 1, super from the giant trees of the Pacific coast.- Few would Believe Sha hi present a { Ee a Co eae one Sonfiders that only a small frase. ion of the. ye , spruce is usable Bon » and fui nigh Tk vastly creased the demand for that; the dif- ty will begin to appear.

LEMONS MAKE WHITE, SOFT, CLEAR. Make this beauty lotion for a few cents and see for yourself, What girl or woman hasn't heard of lemon juice to remove complexion blemishes; to whiten ghe skin and to ring out the roses, the freshness and the hidden beauty? But lemon juice alone is acid, therefore irritating, and should be mixed with orchard white this way. Strain through a fine cloth the juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle containing about three ounces of orchard white, then shake well and you have a whole quarter pint of skin and complexion lotion at about the cost one usually pays for a small jar of ordinary! cold cream. Be sure to strain the lemon juice so no pulp gets into the bottle, then this Jotion will remain pure and fresh for months. When applied daily to the face, neck, arms and hands it should help to bleach, clear, smoothen- and beautify the skin. Any druggist will supply three ou of orchard white at very little cost and the grocer has the lemons. ae To a Butterfly.

Minard's Lintment Lumberman's Friend. Worse Than He Realized. It is told of Rufus Choate, the fam- ous U.S. lawyer, that on one occasion he appeared in court in behalf of a certain blacksmith whose tools and stock-in-trade had been seizell by a creditor. oy So powerfully did the great advo- cate depict the wrong that he con- tended had been done to his ¢lient and so vivid was his description of the ex- tent to which the forge had been stripped, that the blacksmith, who sat near by, was observed to burst inte tears. "Why, Tom," said a: sympathetic friend, "what's the matter with you? What are you erying about?" "Oh," replied the blacksmith be- tween his sobs, "until Mr. spoke T had no idea I had been so abominably t-t-treated!" I cured a horse of the Mange with MINARD'S LINIMENT. + CHRISTOPHER SAUNDERS.
