When the scene of fire is reached the pedals •re' thrown into gear with the pump, the hose is unrolled, and the riders, resuming their seats, wirk the pump by means of the pedals.

Zuhm, aeronautical expert for the navy. Had there been a need for the helicopter during the war, he said, any of several types could have been perfected, of which working models have been flown. Much Interest has been shown of late in reports of successful machines of the helicopter type being perfected in both Germany and England. However, while some flights have been made, none of any consequence are reported by a machine equipped with horizontal propellers or revolving planes, designed to rise vertically from a confined space and descend on the same. That the helicopter is possible Doctor Zahm said, is proved by the (Jerman machine, which, rising several times to moderate heights, has carried observ- 4»ra •P vOumswaalnuAvia* ******v ol ouiuuuaij nunv In the air, and descended in safety. The machine, however, has made no extended flight, such as would prove its dependability, but was tethered to the ground by a mooring rope. At times, when the motors failed, the machine dropped, and the passengers saved themselves only by leaping with parachutes. The experiments are continuing, however, with the purpose of perfecting a motor which can be depended upon to maintain the machine without sudden failure, the scientist explained, tor, as soon as the engine stops, the machine cannot glide to the ground, as does an airplane, but drops vertically. In a proper descent the propellers should be whirled slowly to ease the landing. Two Other Types Offered. Present hopes of attaining successful vertical flight rest mainly upon the endeavors of Emll Berliner, Washington Inventor, whose experiments with the helicopter have extended over a long time; and of Louis Brennan of London, whose newest machine Is reported as nearlng completion. He Is working to win the £50,OCX) prise offered by the British air ministry for successful flight. The helicopters upon which most experimentation has been made consist mainly of two or more propeller screws mounted horizontally on a vertical shaft bearing engines, fuel and pas- Baby Falls From Window, Caught in Postman's Bag Henry ML Druckman, of Brooklyn, N.

Druckman got under the window Just as the child, who had crawled over the sill, fell out. The letter carrier stretched his empty mall bag and caught the baby In it. The child was unhurt. Money Lo4t Last Winter Found in Potato Field Miller Ressler, a termer, of Eden township, Pa., lost his pocketbook early last winter. He advertised for it in the newspapers and made personal Inquiry without results. He mourned $60 as a dead loss. A little girl hunting potato bugs found the wallet In a field a few days ago. The notes were sent to a bank at Quarryvilie, I*a., for redemption. sengera. Equal numbers of propeller blades must revolve In opposite directions, that the body of the machine may not spin like a top. Whether or not this type of machine Is brought to actual use. Doctor Zahm stated, at least two other types of planes that may fly vertically have been offe«*ed to the government. This fact Is not widely known. Able to Rest Motionless. One of these, of which Dr. Zahm obobserved experiments with a working model, was almost Identical with the present type of plane, except that mounted behind the body were two sets of air vanes, in groups, tilted at an adjustable angle, like those of Venetian blinds. When tiie power was turned on, he said, the "wash" of the air stream from the propellers, pushing against these groups of vanes, caused the model to rise gently vertically. The model was held In midair by the action, and when the power diminished It returned gently to earth. A full-slse machine of the type, he said, would be equipped with engines of immense power in order to furnish sufficient air pressure, and when driven to a sufficient altitude the vanes would be so adjusted that horizontal motion would result. The plane could then fly in the usual manner, finally using the vanes again to descend vertically. The other type offered to the afroy, he said, was of the present wing plan. •' &-« V$ seSt l*v»VW iiigM. -S•«» ii,;/ ' <> « IV-: /, vT . * W ^ -v * .-I j s' - t't Thousand <>f baby pelicans have made their appearance on the Coronado islands of Mexico recently. They are fairly tauie and can be picked up with little difficulty. The one this girl has caught is about one month equipped with three propellers, two placed far out toward the wind ends, and with vertical rudders and ailerons similar to those in use. The quicker lifting power was to be gained by having the wash of the central propeller act upon elevators on the tail of the body, while the side propellers would wash against the special ailerons on the wing tips. in the air. Doctor Zahm continued, this machine could maneuver exactly as does the ordinary plane, cut figures snd do stunts, besides being able to rest motionless In any desired position--vortical with nose up. If need be. The best feature, he said. Is that both planes of the new types are entirely feasible snd can be constructed at any time. In fact, several European inventors and manufacturers are patenting designs of the second type, notably the Frenchman, Blertot, one of the pioneers of aviation. Experts for the government studied the second type during the war. It was explained* ^ut the matter weot no further.

The two large propellers literally pull the plane Into the air, the small propeller giving It the horizontal motion.

Canada's census for 1921 Indicated a total population of 8,780,489, distributed as follows: New Brunswick, 387,- 1&39; Nova Scotia, 523,837; Prince Edward Island, 88,615; Quebec, 2,349,- 067; Ontario, 2,929.054; Manitoba, 613,008; British Columbia, 523.^3; Yukon, 4,162; Northwest territories, 6,684, and Canadian navy, 485. The gain for the whole Dominion during 1910-1920, was 1.600.000 or 21.5 per cent. The war cost the lives of 56,680 Canadians killed in action, while 40,- 000 more died from indirect causes. The percentage increase In population Is the same as that for Australia, while the Increase for New«Zealand 20 per cent was very little behind. In the Union of South Africa the increase was 19.2 per cent. The Prairie provinces made the most pronounced gain In Canada, Alberta showing a 55 per cent increase; Saskatchewan over 53 per cent, and Manitoba, 33 per cent. For the next ten years the unit of distribution for determining the membership of parliament will be 36,250. This total Is arrived at by dividing by 66 the population of each province.

Business failures have totaled about $600,000,000 a year in liabilities. Assets have averaged about enough to pay 50 per cent on the dollar.
