The reasons for three propeller blades, relates s writer irr the Kansas City Star, depend to a great extent upon the type of aircraft and engine. ' In certain modern aircraft It Is essential to use a three-blade propeller because «the blades are considerably shorter than those of a two-blade propeller desigrfed to permit a-given Engine to develop full power, for there would be danger of longer blades striding the ground at the takeoff. In addition, extremely high propeller tip speed, necessary fn"a" two-blade propeller to develop full engine power, Is not necessary in the propeller of three blades. Sigh tip speed is excessively noisy and places undue stress on the propeller, in addition, full . engine power is ndt developed, so rapidly with the longer two-blade propeller as. with the three-blade propeller. " The slower an airplane propeller can turn to do a given Job, the Jess noise will result, along with the other Itnportant Item of less engine speed | and consequent less wear and tfiiuband lower -operating' costs. * PLAINDEAL** i-jniiii . mi i i ii H*: J, FOR SALS FOR &ALE -- Ulsed ice boxes, good condition.

Why are so many things, especially, In engineering circles, called by the names of animals? It is not difficult to see why. the long, tapering lifter of greater weights should be called # crane, although it ipighj as fittingly_he called-a stork or an ostrich. As for the donkey-engine, it obviously does, the "donkey-work,^ th^ smaller tasks ignored by the bigger engine. tt" the' monkey-wrench so calie<l .because it deals ipalnly with "nuts," or because when opea-it bears some resemblance to the simian features? Horse power is the unit of strength in all civilized countries^ a ad naturally arises from the fact that until "recently the -horse was the world's main means of traction. The carpenter's horse an& the clothes-horse have evidently heavy burdens to carry, <and the tailor's goose gets its name from the resemblance of its handle to the neck of that bird.

The letter C, which stands for two distinct sounds in our language, was in the beginning aisymbol for a sound such as our "hard" g. This was the Semitic gimel and the Greek gamma. The form of the letter was developed from a rounded form of the early Corinthian and Chalcidlc^alphabets. The g ^mind, or voiced velar stop, was changed by the Romans to the unvoiced stop, possibly as the result of Etruscan influence. The Etruscan alphabet, however, sprang from the same source as the Greek. Finally the new symbol G wa^f used for the sound and the letter C~ replaced K as representing the unvoiced stop sound. Later influences caused the addiction of the second sound, the unvoiced sibilant, which is identical with the letter S. This came as a development of the sound which had formerly been represented by ts. Other uses of the letter C, such as the redundant ck, are grammatical developments of early and modern English.--Chicago Tribunet SGHAEFER'S TAVERN East of the Old River Bridge .

FISH FRY ' - I5VERY FRIDAY NITE Why Cupola* Are Used . Small, house-like buildings afe seen freqxientiy on top of barns * in the rural areas. They are sometimes located at one end of the barn, and. sometimes in the middle; but always they are on the ridge of thfe rodf. Martins and other birds often build nests in them. The" purpose of the small building on farm barns is fcir ventilation. It is called a cupola, and on the large hay barns, particularly in the northern* states, it is a common method v,of " construction. In most cases thte cupola is merely a coveting for a hole in the ridge through which air from the barn Siay circulate. In virtually all cases the sides of the cupola-are constructed of iticlihed boards. In modern construction, this cupola is connected with air shafts properly arranged in such mariner as to control the ventilation,'particularly in dairy cattle barns.--Kansas City Star.

The material, used in manufacturing the ordinary and "family household broom is brootib corn, a variety of sorghum^grown extensively in the Mississippi valley and particularly in Kansas and Oklahoma. The broom corn-is graded, the roughfer portions, called under-working being tied (with wire) first around the foot of the handle; the medium quality, called selfworking, next, and then the out^r layer of the best quality, called hurl. The broom thus formed Is conical. It is given its usual flattened shape by squeezing It in a vise and, while thus held sewing it through and through with twine. A special broom for heavy use has a metal band placed around it while in the vise, and is sewh with wire through the band, the handle being brought down Jow enough to be circled with this wire stitching.

Among its famous stones are the Black Prince's ruby, which dates back five centuries.; the pearl eardrops of Queen Elizabeth; the second largest part of the Sta* of Africa diamond, weighing more than 300 carats; the great sapphire from the crown of Charles^!; the sapphire from the coronatr& rring of Edward the Confessor, and other symbols equally as historic. Besides these larger stones, there are 2.783 diamonds, 277 pearls, 16 sapph ires. 11 emeralds: ana 4 rubies In the crown. . How Horse Names Are £hoseii The owners submit names to the Jockey Club Register. All names are subject tar the approval of the stewards of the jockey club. No name which has been used within the palst fifteen years, can be duplicated. No word canl)e used which might be construed as sacrilegious; all names of famous persons are barred, except with written permission. The primary idea in> naming' -a thoroughbred is that the cognomen should be suitable „ for a noble animal and that, if possible, it' should have some connection philologically, historically, or practically tfith sire and dam, or at least ..with one of them. . i T E D ' S PLACE r . / West McHenryftll..' - DANCINQ i SATURDAY NIGI^rt Music By 1 - r^AL KLEMME & ELLEN BAKER • Tiunch Why Virginia Is Not D.

' ' How Jacobins Receivod Name jacobins was the most famous of tjie clubs of the first French revolution. \tHjon the states-general assembled at Versailles in 1789 it was formed aifd called the Club Breton. On the removal of^the courk.and national assembly to Paris it acqh^red Importance anfl rapidly increased. K^adopted the na^Ee of Societe des-Amis3e la Constitution, but as it met in a hall of the former Jacobin (Dominican) convent in Paris it was called the Jacobin club. After fhejpUl of the monarchy in September, it called itself Societe des Jaeofcins, Amis de la Liberte et de I'EgaliteL^ j -- How Eskimos Told Time The Smithsonian institution says that before influenced by the_advent of white civilization the Eskimo* had neither a systematized method of telling time n9r a monetary system, or its equivalent. They were, of course, cognizant of the phases of the moon, as are almost all primitive peoples, and of the difference in the length of the day in summer and winter, but this was about as far -tfs their knowledge of chronometry went. As for money, barter was the only method of exchange, known to them. Hpw.
