Wealthy and enterprising citizens of are fostering the idea to make country and are contributing ‘mb!unl tial sums and raising more money to-. wards the expenses of an aeronautical congress to be held soon. It iy the in- tention of these citizens to carry on & campaign to induce airplane makers to consrtuct plants in their city. Much has been said previously but little has been done about making Chicago the air- plane center of the. United States as whatever efforts have been put forth have been largely temtative and too much scattered to be effective. It would seem that the promoters of this enterprise could advance substan- tial reasons for the hope that is within them. Chicago fs close to both the geo-, graphical and population centers of the country and it offers manufacturing and transportation facilities that are not equalled anywhere in the world. It could readily supply everything required in developing the industry. Its advan- tages have been recognized, for example, by A, G. H. Fokker, the Dutch airplane inventor, who contemplates moving his factories to the United States. This country is far behind Burope in commercial as in military aviation. True, the government has established & mall service that recently completed a year's record of 1,000,000 flight miles without an accident, but owside of that the United States, where the alrplame| was invented, has little of which to boast, AN ENCOURAGING PICTURE. It is an encouraging picture for the present industrial and business situation for New England that is drawn by the monthly review of the federal reserve bank of Boston. The textile industries are shown to be operating &t nearly nor- mal capacity, there is marked improve- ment in the paper industry, and in the metal trades there is a steady, though slow, improvement, indicated. Only the railroad and the coal strikes stand In the way of a vigorous forward move- ment for business. One thing that many did mot expect is seen in a gradual advance in prices and this general trend is sald to be more marked in retall prices than in the wholesale price increase and the advance in raw materfals. The con- sumer has naturally hoped to see the downward trend in prices continue for some time to come, but, leaving the prospective tarift leglslation aside, the keen demand for goods to replenish de- pleted stocks furnishes a logical reason for the new price movement. Ever since 1896 the advance In prices has been persistent and continuous, ex- cept for a very briet period. The war gave this new impetus, but was follow- ed by the rebound from the inflated war prices. Now, however, the general forces that all along have made for higher prices have again become para- mount, and we are faced with the ques- tion of how long such a tendency will ex- erts its effects. LIBERTY BONDS. With all issues of Liberty bonds now selling above par, the advice that was glven two yearsagoby responsible finan- cial agencies Is now seen to have been well founded. At that time the bonds were selling from 5 to 15 per cent less than they are now, and many holders gave way to the panicky feeling that they must sell out. Of course some per- sons sold because of their need of ready cash, but others refused to believe the advice that these bonds would react to par when the country had readjusted it- self against the influence of feverish war finance. A survey of the history of these bonds in the market reveals that their price was affected by unusual influences. Large sales by manufacturers and mer- chants to meet income taxes and to tide over the financlal stringency drove the price down, and when the price was low, and the treasury department sought to save money by buying the bonds In the open market and retiring them, a pro- test was raised, the charge being that the government was breaking faith with the peoy Changes in the income tax exemptions with respect to these bonds and increases In the amount allowed to investors, helped to bring them back toward par. It was then that big buy- ers, like life insurance companies and trustees of endowment funds entered the market and drove the price to its pres- ent level, The buyer of a second Liberty 4 per cent. bond two years ago has made 23 Per cent. on it in that time, or better than 11 per cent a year. His galn of course, only what the wartime buyer lost, plus the Interest. The owner who s0ld through necessity has but his mis- fortune to blame for his loss, but the owner who sold through want of faith in the government has only himself to blame, and the par market for the bonds is sufficlent answer to his complaint EDITORIAL NOTES. i When will power develops into won't power another name for it is bullhead. edness, The arrival of August reminds us that the vacation season is swiftly approach- ing its end.

FROM LUCILLE’S DIARY Several times during the summer I have heard from different people what A wonderful time is enjoyed by the Rivermarge guests playing golf on the sporty little nine-hole course. So I de- cided to wangle, as the English say,-an invitation to pass a few days with Al- thea Bartlett. “Do come on the Monday afternoon train” Althea wrote me in response to my little note saying how I.longed to see dear old Rivermarge again, as 1 hadn't been there since before 1 went t the war. “You must stay till the end of the week with us and we can have a nice quiet visit.” Why she should think I would desire especially 2 quiet visit I can’t imagine. Anyway, when I learned that Jimmie Hayslette ‘and Burling Preston were go- ing out to Rivermarge on Saturday I asked them if there would be room in the car for,me. I felt sure that Althea would be glad to see me a day or two sooner than she had expected. But She 4id not seem to be. She registered more surprise than pleasure, 1 fancied. Al- thea is mot exactly a gracious hostess. “I am rather cramped and tired after the four hours' drive in Jimmie's little roadster,” I sald as soon as our greet- ings were over. “I should like to ha a little nap in my room before dinner. “Your room!” she returned laughing- ly. “There ismt any such place, Lu- cile. You see we had quite a house par- ty arranged for over Sunday, so that was the reason that I didn't—Oh, well, you can bunk in with me. I have a cot in my room.” In the evening when Katherine Breene ‘was singing in the big living room I sug- gested that we all go to bed early and gét up betimes for golf. “It's quite bar- barlan not to employ daylight saving time out here, anyway,” I said laugh- ingly. “It's 10 now. Let’s call it lll and not stay up any later. Can't we have breakfast an hour earlier? la A chorus of protests came from the men. “What, on Sunday?" asked Burl- ing and Jimmie in one voice, and I re- minded them how they had been plan- ning to play thirty-six holes. You told me you left your here.” T said. “Yes, we did, over in Althea’s locker at the club” said Burling. “I believe you're right, Lucile., If Mrs. Bartlett doesn’t mind, I think it would be bully to get over to the links and be the first to drive off before the crowd comes.” “You may have breakfast just as early as you wish,” agreed Mrs Bartlett pleasantly, and we set 7 o'clock, central| time, and sald we would call it 8. I clubs was the first one up in the morning. Al- thea said she had not slept very well. I thought the cot looked comfortable, but| I suppose she is spoiled by an unusual-{ ly soft and luxurious bed. I never slept better in my life than I did in her bed and I arose feeling that I could play balls for practice before the others came. T got the locker key from Althea | and away we went. We drove with| swiftness through the cool, fresh early morning air. l “You see, T have a passion for mo- toring,” I told him, “I have never be- ‘come the least bit blase about automo- biles. When T get into a marvelous car ke this I feel as if I could ride for- ever.” “Why not drive this morning for a! while?” asked Henry. *“We can spin off twenty miles or So.’ ‘That will be delightful,” I cried, and it was—until we returned to the golf course. Then we found nearly all the house party waiting on the Ifttle clud house steps, looking bored, cross and| tired. “Is this the way you golf?’ I asked as T jumped out of the car gayly. | “Is this the way you golf?" returned Althea. “Why, dear, you surely dom't mind| my having a lovely little drive with Mr. Mayo, do you?” I inquired, “I do mind your running away with the key to the golf locker, when ‘you| knew all our clubs were there. We ha\'@i been waiting for two hours. Jimmie and Burling have gone back home to play tennis. They sald that after being rout- | ed out early they wouldn't waste the| whole morning waiting. I'm afraid they won't have much fun, for the court isn't in good order.” “Why dont 1 have it kept up?’ T asked casually, and Althea did not even answer me, but merely demanded .the Key to the locker. T gave it to her with an apology, byt she did not even say thank you. Tndeed her manner toward me all the rest of the day was so strangely cold that T thought T had better come in town on Monday morning when the week-end guests were all leaving. T felt it would be frightfully dull at Rivermarge with only her companionship. Jimmie said nothing about my return- ing with him and Burling in the road- ster, and Harry did mot invite me to go in his car. I suppose they all felt that they could not very well ask me to drlve and leave Katherine Breene and the otn- er women to go on the frain. Possibly it would have made my popularity too conspicuous—Chicago News. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR That Jewett City Clder Mr. Editor: The cider case which has recently been tried before the Jew- ett City jurors has attracted a great of attention in this community. Thanks to the federal court who So mobly took 2 hand in the game and saved the future of {the town of Griswold. Why such a havoc in a law abiding place? Because one of its prominent citizens took it upon himself to fill his cellar with that which has ruined many a home and as a result of this, six more of its good towns- people did an equal injustice by granting him to carry on this wrong. No doubt, these ‘men do not realize the influsnce that their decislon may have on those who never made any pretentions of fav- oring prohibition. We who consider our- selves upright and loyal to community interests should live to help others and not harm them. Commercial value is not to be considered when homes and young manhood are at stake. Trusting that justice will win I anxiously await further results in the case. INTERESTED. Poquetanuck, Conn. Today’s Anniversaries 1795—Gen.

Psalmanazar is oredited with being one of the most daring imposters in history and although his hoaxes were exposed. there always has been, and always will be, profound mystery about the man him- self. No one knows who he was. Psalm- anazar was not his name but he gave it to himself—and no one knows why he chose that name, other than that he ar- ranged it from Saalmanezer, the Assyrian | prince who i8 mentioned in the T According to the vaghe blograpl® of | Psalmanazar, his birthnlace was a city lying on the road between Avignon and Rome, and the date of hix birth 1679. ‘When he was 23 years of ag\ he was sent to Sluys by Rev. Mr. Innes, chap-| lain of a Scotch regiment in Holland. | Mr. Innes tried to convert Psalmanazar to Christianity, believing kim to be an unconverted Japanese.and he consented to go with the chaplain to England, | He was sent to| collége and he was kent busy entertain- ing the persons he came in contact with, with information regarding the practical: i1y unknown island of Formosa, its lan-| guage, customs, dress, 1aws, ete. i Now Psalmanazar Ter had been either in Japan or Formosa and had no| more knowlédge of them than any other| European. At first several educated men, in Bngland doubted his statements, but when he was subjécted to the most rigid | tests he answeéred every wuestion in such a clear and straightforward way tnat they were convinced. | Psalmanazar, therefore, had invented a | new language. Heftranslated the r‘,hurch“ of England catechism into the “Formo-| san” tongue. Then he wrote, in 1704, a remarkablé book, entitled “Historical and Geographical Description of Formosa.” This vélume told, in careful detall, the ' history and nature of an absolutely ficti- | tious_country, not in the least like the real Formosa. It Was & monstrous achievement to invent a whole language whose syntax, | vocabulary and verbal derivations so cleverly were thought out as to deceive | England's foremost vrofessors of lan-| guages. Ho was also cléver enough to be able to paint weird specimens of F fmosan art. Finally Psalmanazar. with as much ease as he had announced his Japanese- Formosan connection made a puklic confession that his whole story was a | i | tralia, New Zealand, India, Ceylon and Egypl, She surely demonstrated that there's & will there's & way. hoax and that he knew nothing about ' Formosa of any othér part of the Orient. and that he had been no nearer t6 Japan |~ THE PUBLIC EYE l than eastern Ttaly. Why he should have confessed is not quite clear.
