a flight. When the signal to start
was given, the machine shot forward
Instantly and mounted gracefully.
Mr. Wright guided the flyer to the
lower end of the large parade ground
and circled around toward the start
ing point, gradually rising higher
from the ground. A burst of ap
plause greeted him as he sped away
on the second round.
After passing the crowd the sixth
time the aviator descended easily and
alighted with no apparent Jar, the
machine sliding smoothly over the
ground until it came to a stop at a
point near the shed.

short flights until the new machine
Is working perfectly. Then they will

YOUR BEST IIVESTMENT OUR EXPERIENCE
Choose your Optical Specialist to
fit your glasses as you would your
doctor for skill, experience and ability.
We have opened permanent offices In
the John Schmidt building, where wo
devote our entire time to correcting
defective vision with glasses. We do
not divide our time between tinker
ing watches and clocks and trying to
fl. glasses. Common sense ought to
teach the public that the human eye
la too valuable an organ to be trifled
with by an Inexperienced Jeweler,
who calls himself an optician. I have
had over J 7 years practice fitting
glasses to all kinds of bad eyes, dur
ing several years of that time I spent
1; teaching others the science of fit
ting eye glasses which made me more
proficient, ana more capable of pre
scribing lenses for others. I have as
sociated with me my son, who Is an
expert lense grinder, therefore you
do not have to wait, If you break your
glasses we can duplicate any broken
lenses usually In a few hours. Ce
mented bifocals often become opaque
or clowdy, we can fix them In a few
moments as good as new. I thor
oughly understand all the latest meth
ods of testing the eye. and use noth
ing but scientific methods in correct
ing errors of refraction.
