Henry Farre In his "Sky Fighters of France" gives a full explanation of the way in which the airman's most coveted title, "Ace," came Into gen eral use. He says, "When a pilot has brought down his fifth plune, the chief of the squadron telegraphs his fifth victory to headquarters, und that gives him the right to be carried In the next ''general orders to the.wjiole army with a citation of service rendered, for the preds to publish the following day in the Official Gazette. Whenever pilofs merited this distinction, their machin ists called them aces, wblcin has the same significance among tfce pilots as the ace card has In a game of cards; that Is to say, the strongest card, and this is the etymology of the word 'ace,' of wnlch many persons are Ignorant. Thlt title has nothing official, and It sprung from the slang of the machin ists, but that does not prevent it from being quoted In all languages and In every country In the world." Mile* of Poison for Beatles. The Japanese beetle, that not only destroys flowering plants, and especial ly roses, but also attacks orchard trees, has recently becorfle so prevalent In New Jersey that the federal govern ment has begun a warfare against It. Miles and miles of 'poison are used, and trenches dug to keep the beetles from escaping the sections treated. Al ready bushels of dea>d beetles are be ing collected, and It Is hoped that they can all be destroyed so that they won't Infest other^parts of the country. The department of agriculture works hard to keep out the "undesirable alien" among Insects of all kinds, but as In the case of the Japanese beetle, one or two occasionally smuggle them selves in as stow-aways on plants or fruits, and then escape to work against the country they have adopted. ?

Maxwell is but another natne for Quality THE goodness, the efficiency, the qual ity . in previous Max wells created a demand for the current Maxwell which 100,000 cars (the number now being built) cannot satisfy. This shows a rare liking for Maxwell; and the appre ciation that every dollar de voted to its manufacture has been wisely expended. Think what the making of 100,000 axles means, the mak ing of 100,000 frames, 100,000 engines, 100,000 clutches, and 100,000 transmissions. Think of the great saving that comes with the purchase of so many materia^ Consider the accuracy that follows a$ one after another of 100,000. axles is con structed. Consider the vast use of capital it requires to turn them out ? 300 a day. Estimate the confidence the Maxwell executives had in the Post-War model to rest the future of the Maxwell name on a year's production like 100,000. They knew; 300,000 previ ous Maxwells had told them; the public was their judge. You can look for. high engine efficiency, or merely comfort, or long mileage on gas and tires, or improve ments the war developed, or style, or value ? you'll find it in the Post-War Maxwell.

As you know, the cost to construct a buildling today is from 35 to 100 per cent more than it was five years ago? and even taking into consideration depreciation, the replacement value, which is the adjustment basis in case of a fire, is greater than the cost of the building a few years ago. Machinery, merchandise and household effects have also increased in like proportion. C. P. DuBOSE & COMPANY | ? ' 4 Telephone 43 Real Estate and Insurance Crocker Bldg.
