WELL EQUIPPED FOR DEFENSE I British Adopt Defensive Measures for Big Aircraft That Have Been ! Considered Easy Prey. The helplessness of dirigibles In the I face ??f airplane attacks .may be con sidered a matter of the remote past, ft seems thftt dirigibles of tlie near I fui u re will carry fast single sen tor I fighting1 airplanes along with them for ilie purpose of defending tlmu Helvcs against airplane attacks r 'rhi? British, who appear to have taken the lend In dirigible -const rue tion and operation away from the (iertlians. have been carrying on ex- I tensive experiments with ..airplanes carried by dirigible*. The giant air ship R-HI ? the dirigible which crossed the Atlantic last summer carries an airplane suspended below it. The air- I plane can he peached by passing I through a trapdoor and down a swing- I Inp ladder. At the opportune moment the 'airplane, with motor going at. propel' speed. Is released from the dirigible, and after a very sllirht drop goes forth nti its own flight. The disadvantage, of course, is that once the plane Is lannched It is not I possible for it to return to the airship, f so that the? latter will be as much fit I -tlie nmrry ? at ? a. second ? at tack -from i hostile planes as under old conditions. ? Scientific American. Elephants One Man's Hobby. The fate "Pride Johp" Brashear of I Pittsburgh urged that every man should have a hobby; and Matthew P. I Brush, president of the International Shipbuilding ? corporation, -would snb- j scribe to that dictum. The leader of the vast Undertaking at Hog island has a hobby that is sin gularly picturesque. He is a warm admirer of the ele phant. He holds that for the com- I binntlon of strength, sagacity, dignity and fidelity it is the model beast. In I his pocket he carries tiny ivory and I ebony linages of the mighty pnchy- I d'*rm. At his apartment there are lit- I tie elephants to be seen everywhere ? I on the mantelpiece, on the piano, in I every place of vantage. It is said that I the recent census taken by their own er showed he possessed more than ,100 of the tiny figures. ? Philadelphia !

A tourist sport ?inhu took a violent fancy to a pointeer pup he saw in the yard of a north (Carolina mountain eahlti and straightway offered the owner a humlred dollars for It-. The trade was soon made, and as he count ed out the money the tourist remarked casually: "Seems to me 'that it would pay you better to raise bird dogs than those sertibhy, razor hack hogs."

TITS 1MOST ZBJ&ZCTUriJrZZL C311 V IN MOTORISTS in every section of the Nation are com' minting upon the "smoothness" of our six'cylinder "Glenbrook"" power plant. They marvel at the lack of vibration and the unusually even flow of power. An extra heavy, static-balanced crankshaft of our own design is largely responsible for such superb engine per' formance. Carefully balanced pistons and rods also play their part, but the real secret goes back to design ? and three years of patient research on the part of our engineers. Yam however, are only interested in results. So we say ? take just one demonstration. CAROLINA MOTOR CO., (Inc) Camden, S. C. PAIGE-DETROIT MOTOR CAR COMPANY. DETROIT.
