PRINCIPLE OF BOOMERANG Alrptana Constructed Along Same Lines ss the Famous Weapon of Australian Bushmen. Although an anomaly to go to the primitive savages of Australia for points on an airplane, tlmt waa Juat what was done In the development of flying In the air by humans. The . fundamental principle of the plane Is both old and simple, having been dts covered by the bushmcn of the antipodes and embodied by them In the boomerang, which by meeting In Ita flight the air at a alight angle got a lift. The trajectory of the boomerang may be In part horizontal or may even rise aa a result of this lift Any surface that la more or leas flat that travels st a slight angle through the sir tends to lift If ths section has a slight camber, or convex curve, the lift Is Increased. Better results are obtained If a body of appreciable thickness Is used Instead of a thin sheet These points the Australian discovered. Investigation will show little difference between the wing section of the modem airplane and a cross section of a boomerang made by the bushmen or whlttlml by a New York boy after be had visited the circus and had witnessed the stunts of the boomerang throwers. The resemblance of the boomerang's cross section Is closer to s propeller section of an airplane, as s boomerang Is a sort of cross between an slrplsns wing and a propeller. WOOD LASTS FOR CENTURIES Oak Burled In Water or Wet Band Has Proved to Be Practically In- destructible, Men employed In driving a new gallery In a gold mine at Charlotte Plains, In Victoria, Australis, have made an astonishing discovery. At m depth of 800 feet below ground they have come upon pieces of timber perfectly preserved, which havs every appearance of having been sawed sad shaped by the hand of man. This timber lies In the bed of an ancient river now being worked for gold, and the timber is oak. Now, oak has the peculiar property of lasting for centuries when buried In water or wet sand. Oak piles have been taken out from under old wooden bridges constructed by the Romans, and found as sound as when they wars put there, nearly 2,000 years ago. Oak. known as bog oek, la found burled In Irish peat bogs, and Is per fectly black. Intensely hard, and very valuable. Juat before the world's war It was discovered that the bed of the river Moksha, In Russia, for a length of over 400 miles, Is simply full of magnificent old oak trees bedded In and. The river Is shallow, and broad, and the oak can easily be raised. Smaller deposits ara found In Eng land. There Is a pool In the river Dart, known from time Immemorial aa Oak pool.

Any player will after going through such a long and active career as Cobb has enjoyed.
