AIRPLANE TO DEVELOP C-HINA American Commercial Attache Points Out How Problem Facing That Country Way Be Met The keynote of the great problem of development which is facing China is transportation. The American commercial attache at Peking, Mr. Julian Arnold, has laid emphasis on this in an L article in the Chinese Recorder? Jf "China's Economic Problems and L Christian Missionary Effort." Mr. Amrtifi Hooic with npfpssitv of ore V4V vvavaa w??v n \/ v v. t _ fV paring the Chinese people for the i great economic change which is upon W thei^i. Railways will mean much to China, but the necessity for the train' ing and preparation of which Mr. Arnold speaks is shown to be distinctly urgent when Prof. Middleton . Smith's views on the use of airplanes ? to China are known. China is a land P of waterways, and these waterways r afford the necessary existing lines of transportation along which, to secure the success of commercial aviation, airdromes and supply depots should i be established. Schools of technical training should supply the necessary | i Chinese skilled labor, and with these aerial services established, Professor Smith foresees such an incalculable increase in the rapidity of communications as completely to revolutionize the country internally and add to its deep importance as a world factor. __________ HAD AN' OBJECT IN POSING t . Moose Didn't Stand for Her Photograph Just to Accomodate the Camera Holder. \ A moose out in the wil^s does not stop to pose for her picture. There is generally a reason for the peculiar actions of wild things. In the current issue of the Hunter-Trader-Trapper, published in Columbus, 0., hunters write of their experience. "We had an early start Thursday and Sam soon proclaimed that his pipe foretold moose. The first bend , was rounded and knee-deep in the ^ water stood a fat sleek cow. Our W canoe advanced toward her, the camera set for an exposure. Sam called softly and she advanced a hundred feet toward us, ears erect, with a curious *what are you' manner. "At 75 feet she stopped and posed for the picture, and then waited until we were 50 feet away before she turned into the woods. At the top of the bank she waited for us to pass before crashing into the timber. "Her action was explained when we turned the bend and at the water's edge saw her calf, a fine four or five months' old fellow, which climbed the bank and was away after hbr at nnre." v j New Cloth for Hard Wear. A new textile fabric which, it Is claimed, will tend to lower the present high cost of men's clothing is being ' placed on the market by a Pudsey (Yorkshire) manufacturer, writes i United States Trade Commissioner Henry F. Grady from London. The London agents of the manufacturer state that the new cloth is made entirely of silk noil (or short fibers); [ and that, while superior in wearing properties to a pure worsted, it can be sold at the price of shoddy cloth, or one-fourth the price of the best wool fabrics. It is said to be strong and I ' almost untearable, very suitable for hard wear, and can be obtained in grays, browns and blacks. No Novelty. "As I came from the station just now," said a recently arrived guest, "I noticed a crowd in front of the Right Place store and heard considerable yelling. "What was the excitement?" "A farmer and the storekeeper were telling what they thought of each other's infernal hoggishness in wanting five prices for the stuff they had to sell," replied the landlord of the Petunia tavern. "But there wasn't any particular excitement?It happens ev? ery day. The crowd merely gathered in the hope that they might 'accidentally say something new and interesting."?Kansas City Star. [ Weds During His Lunch Hour. How to be married though working was the title of a little sketch staged the other day by E. W. Grieder, a printer employed on the St Paul Dispatch. Grieder faced a problem. He was slated as a principal in a marriage ceremony. His only spare time was a half hour for lunch. So he called his fiancee, Miss uiara i Lovitz, by telephone, arranged with ! her to meet him in the office of Henry Gallick, court commissioner, and the ceremony was performed. Grieder then took lunch and returned to work. Valuable Parasitic Fly. A recent agricultural department bulletin states that a parasitic fly, compsilura civinnata, has been used with great success to destroy gypsy moth and brown-tail moth in New England. It will also aid in the control of other insect pests. A few years ago the white-marked tussock moth was a serious pest in New England, but has practically disappeared since compsilura became established. The cabbage worm, the celery worm and the fall web worm have all been reduced by the activities of the new parasite. Quick Action. "The war made exceptional opportunities."
