& Ll 3 SORTA RTIR BEE FG a RETARRRTA TORT oped | HR ia Bb AAG uk TTT RTS THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 22, 1928 FIREBUGS AGAIN ACTIVE IN GUELPH Culprits Attempt to De stroy House and Another Church Guelph, Aug. 21. -- Despite the fact that they were objects of a widespread search early this morning, when they attempted to @et fire to the home of Thomas Mareroft, Kathleen street, Guelph's "firebugs" -- for recent develop- ments made it appear that there are two of them--were apparent- iy busy again today. During the last twenty-four hours four calls were received at the Fire Depart- ment -- one definitely incendiary, two of doubtful origin and one purely accidental, Running across the lawn at Mr. Marcroft's house, two men were observed by Mrs. T. Elvid, the Marerofts' housekeeper, who was awakened by the noise of footstep:t and a moment later it was noticed that a lounge on the veranda was on fire, Mrs. Elvin was sleeping on the ground floor and called other mambers of the family. Ap- arently the intruders heard her, lor, looking through the window she saw two men racing across the lawn into Exhibition park, Alarms were turned in to the police and fire departmeyts and while the con- stables searched the park for the incendiaries the firemen extinguish- ed the blazing lounge. A Yu burning newspapers, Ww. By lMghted, was found beneath In spite of a careful search the police were unable to locate the suspects. Although it was dark, Mrs. Elvin was able to describe the men as wearing light clothes and being without hats. She thought that they were compara: tively young. A minor blaze in an outbuilding on T.

A recent deliberate attempt to set fire to St. Paul's Lutheran Church. on Woolwich street, .was disclosed: by the poles toda y. When the caretaker of the build- | lic ing entered the church on Saturday afternoon to prepare it for the Sunday services he found a quan- tity of paper, which had been! lighted, . but which apparently burned itself out. The carpet was scorched an dthe paper was lying in a bundle on the floor. It was directly beneath a brok- en window, and the incendiaries had evidently pushed it through' the smashed pane. Their inten- tions, there is no doubt, were to fire the church and it was fortun- ate that the flames did not catch the surrounding woodwork.

The Swede has been ordered held for one week by Provincial 4 Meanwhile his recent movements will be investigated, The man said he came from Hamilton, Ont. A com: plete report soncerning the arrest has not yet reached the Provincial Swede, corres- e. Altogether 22 men are in the local jail, and police are still picking up men Jushected of being implicated in the holdup of the Canadian Pacific Railway Winnipeg-Toronta train last Saturday. : The story of Burawski, who has been charged by a Coroner's verdict with the murder of Thomas Jackson, a farmer who was killed in a fight to recover the automobile which the bandits stole after the robbery, is be- ing carefully checked by police. Po- lice state that he has an accurate knowledge of this locality, covering a wide area. 2 Members of the mail car crew state that before leaving the train at Parry Sound the two bandits divided their loot, and that as approximately $1, was found on Burawski, his com- anion should have a similar amount in his possession. FINE SETTING FOR EXHIBIT IN ARTS General Room Montreal Arts Club Entirely Adapted * (By Canadian Press) Montreal, Que., Aug. 22.--It would be hard to find a setting better adap- ted to the requirements of the small exhibition than the general room of the Montreal Arts Club. For the 40 or more landscapes, studies, drawings and wood-cuts make up an intimate collection with a personal flavor that can be best appreciated in this room, where the artists whose work it represents are wont to gather for discussion and re- creation--a collection to be viewed without haste amid comfortable sur- roundings. J Here are two or three striking har- bor sketches, products of the sure skill of Adiren Hebert, tramp steam- ers flaunting all their port accoutre- ment of booms and ropes and winch- es. In their portrayal Mr. Hebert has caught the sonorous rhythms and harmonies so often more fundamen- tally present in the utilitarian than in the ornamental expressions of con- temporary life. In contrast he pre- sents two figure bits, "The Charles- ton" and "The Flapper" the appeal of which is instant, Scattered about the wall are a num- her of examples of Thurstan Top- ham's art, the most impressive being a green-blue symphony entitled, "Un- dine," the composition of which is highly characteristic. Then one must pause to enjoy the decorative quality of "The Spruce-Studded Hillside" a winter landscape by A. Wilkie Kil- gour, Several sketches from South Caro- fina done in delicate pastel shades by Guy Brock offer quiet enjoyment. The intellectual interest of the visitor is sharply gripped by a drawing by Ed- win Holgate in which winter woods are employed with original effect. The austere force which marks this artist's woodcuts, the almost niggard- ly restraint, is here finely manifested, Two paintings from the brush of Harold Beament indicate that this young painter is gaining surely in ower, both intellectual and pictorial, he handling of the distant sunlight on snow in rhe Old Cariole" consti- tutes ome of the st pleasin achievements in the exhibition, while in the other entry Mr, Beament has portrayed the aurora borealis with refreshing individuality. : Among the other exhibitors are W.

Speaking on what the press can do to promote Christianity, the American pastor said: "Newspapers should always their readers ideal of unity as expressed in the Lord's Prayer and impress upon the public that we have a common enemy in Paganism now rampant, especially in the big cities, where it largely dominates literature, art and the stage."

It is about three feet long, is. curved to fit the chamber of the wing, thereby forming a perfect streamline when 'the device is not in use, and it is situated near the wing tips. The action of the slotted wing is automatic and exceedingly simple. When the plane is pulled up nw a stalling position, the slots apen of their own accord, allowing the upward current of air (due to the plane falling as dead weight) to pass under it and over the upper wings, with the result that the loss of forward speed is compensated by the capture of the speed of the force of gravity. .it must be remem- bered that a plane flies omly by reason of the speed by which st is made to pass through the air by its engine; when the engine fis shut off, gravity immediately be- gins to pull it toward the earth, It 1s the pull of gravity that is utilized by the alotted wing, and the effect is to turn the plane into a parachute i.e, to slow its de- scent by using the force of gravity to increase the lift on the upper surface of the plane. It cannot he too strongly empha- sized that anybody can kill himselt in an airplane just as easily as he can in an automobile. The slots do not safeguard the lunatic; they merely tend to offset the bad ef- ferts of an error of judgment in the alr or a straight stall near thy ground, to such an extent that i crash, even if it breaks up the plane is not likely to prove fatal, or even serious, to the pilot. {'ha. is as much as it can be asked tu da; the pilot will always have'need of a good deal of common sense and a cool head; the slots will merely allow him a little more time in an emergeney. A few days ago the writer was, through the courtesy of Air As- sociates, permitted to fly a slotted wing Avian. At about 1,000 feet up the plane was pulled back grad- ually into a stalling position with the engine on. Nothing happened. Then the stick was pulled back as far as it would go. The plane hung in midair, no doubt stalling, but imperceptibly so. However, a plane stalls very slowly anyway with its engine on, Then the engine was cut off and the plane was gently stalled. There was no sensation of a sudden drop, such as one usually feels, and the machine did not even attempt to drop its nose preparatory to a dive, but eeemed to fall so slowly (no doubt a good deal more slowly than ft would have done without the slots) that there was no feeling of having lost flying speed. Then the control stick was pulled all the way back and the nose shot up into thue air, the plane stalled, the nose dropped until it became level with the horizon, flying speed was resumed, and the cycle was re- peated for as long as the control stick was held back. Ordinarily in & stall, the plane will drop its nose very sharply far below the horizon level, in fact somewhere near to perpendicular, and immediately pick up speed, when the pose rises again to » point above the horizon, where it again stalls and the performance is repeated. Usuplly considerable height is lost. With the slots, bow- ever, extremely liitle height was lost and the mose dropped very slightly below the level flying po- sition, The only way to settle finally the shape of the earth is to take 8 pop- ular ballot, tiats versus rounds, the earth agreeing to abide by the ma- jority decision.--Spoksne Spokes- man-Review.
