Night Flying Is Impossible With Gil-
ders Because All Air Currents Are
Downward at Night—Hawks
Fly Days Only.
Cleveland.—A motorless airplane,
capable of climbing to an altitude of
20,000 feet, Is forecast by Dr. George
H. Madelung, designer of the success-
ful Hanover glider, which, In a recent
glider contention in the Rhone valley,
broke all records by staying In the air
! for more than three hours.
Doctor Madelung Is now a member of
| the designing staff of a local airplane
. company. Describing the phenomenal
J development of the machine In Ger-
many, he explained Its operation.
The machine has a gliding angle of
sixteen to one, that Is, In 8tiU air
j It glides 10 feet to every foot it de-
| scends. It has a still air speed of 20
; miles an hour. If the wind Is 20
' miles an hour, the gilder remains sta-
I tlonary and If more tnan that, It goes
I backwards, but If the air current Is
upward, the gilder ascends. It Is up-
i on upward currents of air that the
! gilder places main dependence for
| keeping aloft for more than brief
periods.
Must Know r.Ir Currents.
I In sailing 1'or 11 considerable dis-
! tance the glider pilot must know ap-
I proximately where he will encounter
upward currents. Plowed fields and
other open spaces, where the heat of
the sun creates a considerable up cur-
i rent, are favorable places. It Is for
| this reason that the charting of air
currents has become necessary for
; the commercial development of the
j glider.
When the places along a certain
! route where air current may be en-
| countered become known, flights of
hundreds of miles and ascents of more
than four miles may be accomplished,
Doctor Madelung said.
He pointed to the hawk and other
soaring birds as an Illustration. The
hawk will sail down to a field whence
It will circle In ascent, forced upward
by the rising air caused by tlie re-
flected heat of the field. When It has
reached a sufficient altitude It soars
! away, to repeat the process miles
away.
Hawks Fly Days umy.
In this connection, Doctor Madelung
commented that the hawks and other
soaring birds do not fly at nlglit, stat-
ing that the reason is because all air
! currents are downward at night.
I Night flying Is Impossible with gilders
for the same reason, Doctor Madelung
said.
With the application of tne princi-
ples discovered In gliding a new type
of airplane, far more efficient and safe
] than the present types, will result.
Doctor Madelung believes. Doctor
Madelung's designs are being used ex-
tensively In the construction here of
a new type of seaplane. It will have
a wing design similar to that of the
I Hanover gilder to be used by the Unl-
; ted States navy.
Doctor Madelung was assistant en-
gineer before the war In the German
Institute of Aeronautical Research at
| Alderslioff. He was called to the front
as a pilot, but was later recalled to
1 Alderslioff.
Lila St. Cyr, a Winebago Indian
who is known in the film circles as
Red Wing, will appear at the Empress
Theatre Monday night in Indian and
English Songs and will also give a
short talk of her experience as a mov-
ie actress.
Red Wing is a graduate of the fam-
ous Carlisle Indian school and was al-
so a protege of United States Senato
Long of Kansas, before entering che
movies. Her first appearance was with
the Original 101 Bison, Pathe, "Red
Wing Series also as "Naturich'' in the
"Squaw Man" opposite "Dustin Far-

exception of the time she played with
Geialdine Farrer in the production of
Carmen as a Spanish girl. This will
be Mangum's first opportunity to see
a real Indian movie star. She will be
assisted by an Omaha Indian boy, in
his native songs and dances.

A SHABBY HOUSE OR A SHABBYj
MIND
Haven't you been in houses where I
lovely flowers stood all about, and |
everything was spick and span, but j
the library table was strewn with pa-
pers and magazine^ of the trashiest
description. Is it a good thing to have
the furniture of the house the best
that money can buy, and to furnish
the mind with silly and disreputable
things in the way of reading? Better
by far have a shabby house than a
shabby mind. The shabby furniture
can be burned or sold, but what can
be done for the shabby mind? Use the
Youth's Companion to furnish your
mind, and wherever you are—in plain
but immaculate rooms or amid splen-
dors and palaces—you will be at home
