EXPLAINS "ADOPTION" OF ARMENIAN ORPHANS Means Sending Five Dollars For Education. -RAXiEIGH, Dec 19. North Carolinians who "adopt" Armenian orphan simply pay $5 a month for their main- tenance and education in the near east relief orphanage in the Bible lands, and do not take them into their own household at a much greater expense, it was pointed out today by Col.

George H- Bellamy, state chairman. Col. Bellamy's explanation came as the result of answers to the- Christmas appeal of the near east relief sent out by Josephus Daniels, honorary state chairman, in which tender-hearted North Carolinians have askesi for a boy-or a girl to be sent to their homes. Col. Bellamy had the same misunderstanding to cope with last year, as did JUts.

T. P. Harrison, chairman for Raleigh and Wake county. The near east relief is a closely supervised organization. Col.

Bellamy declared, and works under the direction of congress. Funds are collected in the states at minimum of. overhead expense and sent to the national office in New York by the state treasurer. Through quantity purchasing and efficient management enough commodities can be purchased in this country to feed, clothe and educate these children in groups at $5 a month. This is a smaller sum than would be required to even feed a child In this country, and unless congress changes the law the near east relief is powerless to send any of these children to America, no matter how much their presence in American homes is desired.

There are now more than 110,000 children in the near east relief orphonagee and as many more clamoring for admission which is denied them because the institutions are already overcrowded.

AIRPLAISE-STABILITY TESTS TO MAKE FLYING SAFES If an airplane with its rigging intact and a capable pilot in command, responds readily to the controls, most airmen are satisfied to regard it as a staple machine. It is surprising, therefore, to learn, says the January Popular Mechanics Magazine in an illustrated article, that the standard-rigged "JN-4H," a highly 'training plane, has been found to be unstable by the national advisory committee for -aeronautics, after a series of tests. The principle involved -In the tests is that of a man holding a mirror which reflects a beam of light upon a moving film. Although his hand may appear perfectly steady to the eye, the unseen tremors will record a series of jagged lines on the film, not unsimilar to the record of a seismograph.

In the same manner, the unconscious movements of the pilot in righting his machine against the forces of instability may be recorded. In the application of the principle to the airplane, the control bar, as "joy stick," may be said to correspond to the hand holding the mirror. The stick has been connected with the mirror of a recording machine which reflects a constant beam of light upon a traveling film. Each movement of the controls in meeting, forces Is theerfore translated to the film, and at the same time, the force necessary to overcome the unstable, tendency is registered on a visible- the yesterday. any Store, Open (i Every Night Useful on McirefiQ 1 Going gi I IV Jflliy Jk ol XKpr XmA -w PLUGGING OUT A Kentucky, man seems to have found7 a relative of the city girl wl.o thought it must be cold work harve the winter The young woman of whom the Ken-tuckian tells is a native of Cincinnati, and was lately talking with him about tobacco and tobacco raising.
