ZEPPELIN IS | MAKING BIG AIRPLANES Latest Triumph 1000 Horse- Power All-Metal Plane of Unusual Speed BY EDWIN E. SLOSSON ; The Zeppelin works have turned = from the manufacture of dirigibles carrying destruction to the manu facture of monoplanes carrying peaceful passengers, Their latest triumph fs an all 1a metal, thousand-horse- power air tion of speed, strength, and carrying capacity. The wings, instead of being of fanvas stretched upon a wooden akeleton, are made of duralumin Sirders and sheets. Duralumin ts a very light, strong alloy composed of about 4 per cent of aluminum, with about 4 per cent of copper and smaller amounts of Manganese, zinc, magnesium, sili on and tron. ‘The wings have a span of 104 fret and are so thick and strong that the Mechanics can craw! through a tun- Mel in the front edge to reach the ‘@ngines which are built into the wings. There are four engines, each a 260-horse-power Maybach motor, ®uch ag’ was used on the Zeppelin airships that raided England during the war. ‘The fuselage or main carriage ts early 60 feet long and 14 feet high. Tt can carry with comfort 18 pas- ‘Sengers and a crew of four or five. The pilot has a look-out on top that gives him a clear yiew al! round. The total weight of the ma chine is ahout 11,000 pounds empty plane with an unparalleled combina | efficiency | Comer Clubs They're Everywhere Idle; No Aim in Life Watch World Go By Women, Too? Horrors! No! Maybe its the short skirta, Again, it might be the “prevalent | condition of unemployment” that the editorial columns are so full of, Possibly it is because thelr wives nag them if they stay home Or maybe they haven't any homes. It might be that they are insur ance salesmen looking for vic! or people from out of town for street cars on the wrong si the street. At any rate, the average city block | in the Seattle business section haa, | besides public buildings, cigar stores and doughnut shops, 15 men, who seemingly have nothing in the world to do but stand and watch the rest of the world go by. | laces, on street corners, r they can find another pecies, they halt. There they spend the day in contemplation. Regular “street corner clubs” are them aggregation, They stand watch together day after day, In the same place, with now and then a new member added to their number, but always with one or two of the “gang” present. | And, strange to say, of all these there are no women. Here and there! a young girl, obviously waiting for | a street car—and in no sense look ing at the passersby with an atti tude of curiosity, nicely mixed with languor, as do her male contempo- raries In front of a department store the Ladies’ Sodality of the East Side, or the reception committee for the lodge officer, or some such group stands talking, obviously waiting until the others arrive so that they may go to luncheon. These are the only ones of the gentler sex one sees standing still. The women at least keep moving. They have other means of spending and it can carry nearly as mych again as a load. This heavier - than - alr Zeppelin travels with a speed of 130 miles an hour but can slow down to 55 miles | for landing.
